~By PAUL STEVENSON.
There is an entente cordiale bes
tween Atlanta and Athens, according
to speeches of some two dozen lead
ers of the Atlanta Kiwanis Club and
the new Athens Kiwanis Club at the
biggest dinner ever held in Athens
Wednesday night.
With 79 members on its roster the
new Athens Kiwanis Club was offi
cially installed in the presence of
about thirty Kiwanis leaders from
Atlanta including, District .Governor
R. S. Wessels and George BEubanks,
president of the Atlanta elub.
One outstanding feature of the in
stallation was the manifestation of
friendship for Atlanta by the leading
citizens of Athens who form the new
club ‘and the sincere and unmistak
able spirit of co-operation pledged to
Atlanta by the people of Athens
through the Athens club.
In Georgia and the South there
may be some towns and cities that
entertain a feeling of jealousy against
Atlanta, but certainly Athens is not
among these.
PROUD OF ATLANTA.
Teading citizens of this section of
the State, among them being Pean
C. M. Snelling of the University of
Georgia; Blanton Fortson, Judge
Thomas F. Greene, Bob M¢Whorter,
renowned athlete: Col. M. G. Michael,
T. W. Baxter and Col. J. D. Price
joined in tributes to Atlanta “and
praised the bigness of Atlanta in the
affairs of the country.
«“We are proud of Atlanta and
proud of the fact that we now have a
club that is to become a great unit
in the. affairs of Kiwanisdom,” saéd
Judge Greene.
From the time the Atlanta delega
tion entered the lobby of the Geor
gian Hotel and “let the lion roar”
until they departed early Thursday
morning there was not a dull moment
in. Athens. (And there was not na
moment without a citizen of Athens
on hand doing everything in his
power to show the visitors from At-
Janta “the time of their life.”
FUN FAST AND FURIOUS.
There was fun fast and furious,
both prior to the installation meeling
and during the session.. One funnyv
stunt was pulled after another and
it was pronounced by both visitors
and local citizens as one of the most
enjoyable affairs of its kind sver
held in the shadows of the classic

R LAUREN FOREMAN, Rotarian, is editor of the
. _.:.:-.-.,‘;s;:__::_: Southern Railway's News Bulletin and director
3 :*,," of publicity for the Southern in the Atlanta territory.
PR e e
¢ w« ¥4 He is a veteran of the newspaper profession and of
R
# (:J’{& the recent dispute in Europe.
f o Mr. Foreman was born in “Washington in Wilkes,”
e was graduated from Emory at Oxford in 1901 and
k}'»}.: AT came to Atlanta next day to be cub reporter on the
gt UoE Constitution. He was a willing cub and a hard
g By worker, so in five years he became city editor.. Four
\“‘\{{x\ vears of that job was plenty, and Lauren left the
W“ %\“ . desk to become publicity man for the Southern, the
9 \\y% §§ railroads waking up about that time to the fact that
; -\:.::\._'ss§§,;§;e:::E;‘;-‘_fj:j:_ig; the public was entitled to know what the railroads
Breesresmaesesey were doing.
_When the United States entered the war Foreman
Lauren Foreman. went to an officers’ training camp, won his commis
sion, was assigned to a motor truck corps, and finally reached ¥France,
where he was at Chateau-Thiérry and other places which figured in the
headlines at home. He came back as a captain and took up his old work.
He is a brother of Rotarian Bob Foreman. He is unmarried, lives at the
Capital City Club, eats at the Bell House, and dances at the Piedmont
Driving Club. ;
hall of the old Georgia varsity.
“Bob” Wessels, district governor,
was the hero of the hour and per
haps was never in better Kiwanis
form. With witty quips and merry
jokes he kept. not only the Atlanta
crowd but the Athens men in a con
gtant uproar of laughter. There was
notling serious about this meeting
save the act of presenting the char
ter and prior t@ that there was more
fun crowded into the session than
has been seen in Athens ‘since the
accident to Bob McWhorter's night
gown during “little comimencement.”
After Governor Wessels had spok
en, George Eubanks told a bunch of
Frank Reynolds’ jokes and got away
with them better than the übiqui
tous. Frank himself and also made
one of the best speeches of the eve
ning on the spirit of Kiwanis and
what the coming of the Kiwa-
Club to Athens means for ttht city
and that section of the State.
MAKE TOUR GF UNIVERSITY.
RBlanton Fortson presided as toast
master and the main dining reom in
the handsome new Y. M. C. A: build
ing was crowded to capacity. In ad
dition to the invited guests there
was a large crowd of Athens citi
zens in the anteroom and lobby. A
program of jazz music was rendered.
Before the banquet the Atlanta vis
jtors were taken on an unofficial
tour of the University of Georgia,
were shown “New College,” only 100
vears old, were taken to the ladder
where the sophs beat the freshmen
to. the clapper in the chapel belfry
in naighty naught and were per
mitted to gaze on the letters “T. H.
W. T.” peainted. high on the walls, of
the water tank and nearly every
where else in Athens.
The Kiwanians were rather mysti
fied over the faot that as far ase
Athens is concerned there are only
four letters in. the alphabet, these be
ing “T. H. W..T." On being inter
preted - thev found these stand for
“To Hell With Tech,” whatever that
means.
On the ihspection tour they wera
shown the various monuments whick
grace the campus and read the many
interesting inscriptions. One inscrip
tion particularly attracted interest. Tt
reads “To the memorv of General
Elijah Clarke. Georgia 34, . 8. U. 15,
Born 1739. died 1799, Georgia 26,
Clemson 0.” o
One interesting snot shown the
visitors was the headquarters of the
“pP. B. Club.” Tt was explained that
this organization is the ‘Patch
Rreeches Club” and its members have|
pledged themselves not to buv any
clothing until the high cost of rai
ment has heen material'v reduced.

with funds sufficient and many men
and women who were not able to

now getting along splendidly in
some of the higher work.
About 800 voting white persons,
members of the commission said, in
Atlanta !ost the opportunity to learn
the three “R’'s” when they were
young, it was estimated.
At present, the principal demands
for the schools are in the factory dis
tricts, There is an average atten
dance of thirty pupils in each of the
six schools, now, and this number is
being increased daily. Schools are
already located at the following
places: Exposition Cotton Mills,
