Thousand Miles Away, Will Flash Signal to National Conservation Exposition, I* MONDAY IS DEDICATION DAY: Managers Fulfill Promises to Have Exhibits Ready as Scheduled. Opens Free of Debt. KNOXVILLE, Aug. 30.—Promptly at 10 o’clock Monday morning in Washington President Wilson will flash a wireless telegraph message to Knoxville. The message will be picked up by the wireless station In the grounds of the National Conservation Exposition in this city. The receipt of the message from the President of the United States to T. A. Wright, president of the exposi tion company, will be the signal for the formal opening of this exposi tion, the first in the history of the world devoted to the cause of con servation and designed to teach by concrete example the necessity of conserving all material resources if the country is to grow and prosper. Manner of Opening Unique. rrven as the National Conservation Exposition is unique in history, so id the manner of opening It unique. No exposition ever before has been opened by a wireless message sent by the President. Ben W. Hooper. Governor of Tennessee, and his staff will be present on the opening day. | The exercises will be impressive. There will be speeches by Governor Hooper, Mayor Helskell of Knoxville and President Wright of the exposi tion. The new buildings on the grounds will be dedicated; there will be an automobile parade, the formal open ing of “Joy Street,” as the midway will be known; fire vorks, band con certs and a general good time. The official program starts the fun going at 8 o’clock In the morning, and it will continue without a break until late at night. Two promises made by the directors months ago will be kept. These Were: The exposition would open on time and be complete down to the last de tail. The exposition would open free of debt. Buildings All Are Ready. Opening day will see the exposition grounds looking more beautiful and more attractive than ever before. Eleven great exposition builGings. all snowy white, are filled with exhibits of all kinds, Government. State, mu nicipal and private. Flower beds dot the landscape. Flags are flying. The lakes are alive with motor boats. The grounds present a gala appearance. ii ia in carrying out the idea *pf kmt ^position itself—the Idea upon wnloh it was founded—and in teach ing the lessons of conservation that this exposition, projected by the South and brought into being by men of the South, stands out as different from any other exposition From start to finish, from one building to another, the main idea of teaching conservation lessons never has been lost sight of for a moment. The big mines and minerals build ing is an example. Here the displays have been so arraanged as to em phasize the fact that in the South nearly every mineral is found, and also to emphasize the fact that all of these ores have a commercial value. A model coal mine dug into a hill forms a feature of this exhibit. The exposition will run until No vember 1. Drug Company prior to August 1. The advertising contest was a fea ture of the convention of the Rexall Clubs, whieh was held in Boston last week. The Judges decided that he was entitled to second prize because of the suitability of the ads to the character of trade appealed to, sell ing quality of the ads and their origi nality. Mr. Bell entered the contest without any intention of making a fight to win a prize. “I Just wanted to show them what we could do in Georgia in the ad vertising line,” says Mr. Bell, “and give them a real demonstration of the Atlanta spirit.’ I watch the papers earefully for advertising of drug stores in the North, and I believe our advertising will compare very favor ably with that put out by the very largest stores.” Mr. Bell has been living in Atlanta so long that he counts himself a genuine Atlantan, and is constantly boosting the town and its people. For more than five years he worked in the drug business in the East, and. al though comparatively a young man, generally is regarded as one of the most experienced in the business in the country. He has entire charge of the pub licity department of the Elkin Drug Company in addition to his duties as manager of the concern, being W. S. Elkin, Jr.’s, right-hand man in the conduct of the two stores in At lanta. THIEVES RANSACK HOME WHEN WOMAN GOES AWAY W. K. Coleman.

THE RECORD By special order of the Secretary of War an offi cer of the United States Army is to lie detailed for service at Riverside Military Academy. The approval for this detail follows speedily the recommendation of Major B. F. Hardaway, Sev enteenth Infantry, stationed at Fort McPherson, who made the inspection by special order of the AN ar Department early in July. This detail carries with it the complete equip ment of modern rifles, dress and service accouter ments, haversacks, canteens and mess equipment as used by the United States Army. Also artillery and cavalry equipment for dis mounted service. The uniforms of the Riverside cadets are identi cal with those of the NVest Point cadets, and are fit ted to the figure of each cadet by military tailors at Riverside Military Academy. In this respect. River side stands alone among the Southern preparatory schools. THE RECOMMENDATION In July of this year a request was made upon the War De partment for an army officer to be detailed for sendee with the Riverside cadets. Copies of the current catalogue and a complete description of the campus, location, surroundings, physical equipment and faculty were furnished. This so impressed the War Department that notwithstanding the annual inspection of academies and schools applying for such recognition is made only in April, a SPECIAL INSPECTION was ordered immediately, and Major Hardaway was detailed for this service. He was so impressed with the location of Riverside, two miles out of Gainesville—connected by trolley—in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, on the banks of the Chattahoochee River, with Lake Warner on its 2,000-a'cre campus, that he wrote in strong praise of its magnificent natural advantages and wonder ful possibilities. \ He was greatly impressed with the opportunities afforded for indoor gallery practice, long range sharpshooting adjacent to the school, the maneuvering grounds, bridge building, pontoon work, swimming, boating and other arts of modern warfare, all on or at the campus. The •physical equipment, wit h its well lighted, perfectly ven tilated and modernly equipped barracks, mess ball, class rooms and gymnasium, so enthused him that his comments on these fea tures iu his report caused the War Department to take immediate action ‘and announce the approval and detail. THE REASON Riverside possesses all the requisites of an ideal military school. In addition to the superior advan tages named, Riverside has: ..... 1. An Accomplished Faculty—An instructor of successful experience for every twelve boys. No cadet’s room more than three doors from teacher. 2. Wholesome Atmosphere—Two miles out in the hills, with ideal quietude for study, j'et enjoy ing the cultured influences of the refined and in tellectual city of Gainesville. 3. Superior Athletics—Only best coaches and trainers employed. Every boy given opportunity to participate. Three and four teams in each sport, coached bv members of faculty. 4. Individual Instruction—All the courses of fered by any preparatory school and taught thor oughly. 5. Inspection Invited—The most complete boys’school in the South. Parents and prospective patrons urged to visit academy. FOR RESERVATIONS AND RATES ADDRESS Riverside Military Academy SANDY BEAVER, President GAINESVILLE : : : : : i GEORGIA
