By PAUL STEVENSON.
There is an entente cordiale be
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
ney Athens Kiwanis Club was offi
cially installed in the presence of
about thirty Kiwanis leaders from
Atlanta inecluding District Governor
R. S. Wessels and George Eubanks,
president of the Atlanta club.
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.
Leading’ citizens of this section of
the State,, among them being Dean
C. M. Snelling of the University of
Georgia; Blanton ° Fortson, Judge
Thomas F. Greene, Bob McWhorter,
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,” sadd
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 a
moment without a citizén of Athens
on hand doing everything in his
power to show the visitors from At
lanta “the time of their life.”
FUN FAST AND FURIOUS.
There was fun fast and furious,
both prior to the infla]!aflnn meeting
and during the session. One funny
stunt was pulled after another and
it was pronounced by both visitors
and local citizens as one of the most
enjoyable affairs of its *ind ever
held in the shadows of the classic

LS . LAU};(BN FOREMAN, Rotarian, is editor of the
bg\ S Ly Southern Railway's News Bulletin and director
i " of publicity for the Southern in the Atlanta territory.
1 ' ".' He is a veteran of the newspaper profession and of
i *V\ the recent dispute in Europe.

LS ,_-_::';;§§§§§:;g;;'::‘;::g:{;;g;-;ggggggii:“;;" Mr. Foreman was born in “Washington in Wilkes,”
!::'. : "?' was graduated from Emory at Oxford in 1901 and

fi&,‘ years of that job was plenty, and Lauren left the
SN\ ¢ desk to become publicity man for the Southern, the
‘\§%\'\ railroads waking up about that time to the fact that
3 ‘\w(*x the public was entitled to know what the railroads
J DR were doing.
AR N When the United States entered the war Foreman
Tauren Koreman. 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-Thierry and other places which flgured 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
heps 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
stant uproar of laughter. There was
notling serious about this meeting
save the act of presenting the char
ter and prior to that there was more
fun crowded into the session than
has been geen in Athens since the
accident to Bob McWhorter’s night
gown during “little commencement.'
After Governor Wessels had spok
en, George Eubanks told a bunch 9!\
Frank Revnolds’ 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 anc
what the coming of ‘the Kiwan
Chlb to Athens means for that city
and that section of the State.
MAKE TOUR OF UNIVERSITY.
Blanton Fortson presided as toast
master and the main dining room 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 antereom and lobby. A
program of jazz music was rendered.
Before the banquet the Atlanta vis
itors were taken on an unotfi'cial
tour of the University of Georgia,
were shown “New College,” only 100
years old, were taken to the ladder
where the sophs 'beat the freshmen
to the clapper in the chapel belfry
in naughty naught and were per
mitted to gaze on the letters “T. H.
W. T.” painted high on the walls of
the water tank and nearly every
where else in Athens.
The Kiwanians were rather mysti
fied ‘over the fact that as far as
Athens is concerned there are only
four letters in the alphabet, these be
ing “T. H. W. T.” On being inter
preted they found these stand for
“mo Hell With Tech,” whatever that
means.
On the inspection tour they were
shown the various monuments which
grace the campus and read the many
interesting inscriptions. One inserip
tion particularly attracted interest. It
reads “To the memory of General
Elijah Clarke. Georsia 34, L. 8. U. 15,
Born 1739. died 1799, Georgia 26,
Clemson 0.”
One interesting spot shown the
visitors was the headquarters of the
“p, B. Club.” Tt was explatned that
this organization is the ‘Patch
Breeches Club” and its members have
pledged themselves not to buv any
clothing until the high cost of rai
ment has heen materiallv reduced.

Plans to establish in each ward
of Atlanta a school for education of
adults who missed the opportunity of
schooling in their youth, were out
lined to The Georgian Thursday by
representatives of the Illiteracy Com
mission of the State Board of Edu
cation, Sex schools of the sort al
ready have been established in At
lanta, and others await only the
registration of pupils,
The Legislature last year appro
priated mcney for the maintenance
of such schools throughout the State
‘with funds sufficient and many men
and women who were not able to
read or write six months ago, are
now getting along splendidly in
some of the higher work.
About 800 voting white persons,
members of the commission said, in
Atlanta lost 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,
Fulton Bag and Cotton Mill, Pied
mont Mill, Martel Mill, Stewart ave
nue, class settlement house of Woolen
Mill, English Avenue School,
All expenses of the schols are paid
by the State, and there is no charge
to the pupil.
