f” WASHINGTON LETTER. B(s{
Washington, City,
November 29th, 1915.
Recently in a speech before the
Gecorgia Society Senator Hoke Smith
made the remark that all Georgians
are making good in Washington, and
so far as my observations go this is
literally true. I am making refer
ence to the Senators deserved com
pliments to Georgians because 1
wish to speak of one of Cobb coun
ties former deserving and well known
citizens who moved to Washington
two or three years ago. 1 have in
mind Mr. Mace Morris who some
months ago was placed upon the Met
ropolitan police of this city. There
is nothing gorgeous about Mace, he
is just simply a good natured matter
of fact common sense fellow, intrepid
and ambitious, and is distinguishing
hmself as a Capital City patrolman.
It is about this sterling young Geor-!
gians home life that I wish to speak
of rather than his official career. Suc
cess is practically easy when one’s
home life is exempliary. Some time
ago Mr. Morris extended to Mrs.
Hairston and myself an invitation
to spend the day with him, we ac
cepted, and a more delightful time
we have seldom experienced. A bet
ter regulated family I was never in,
they are all chums, but for the dif
ference in the age of the parents and '
children you would have to ask who
was the head of the family. The.
obedience of the children was admlr-i
able, the kindness of the parents un
iform and remarkable, in fact it was
a sort of little democracy unto itself.
Mr. Morris has purchased his home
in cne of the popular suberbans, it is
commodious and elegantly furnished
In the reception room you will see'
splendidly framed twpo striking por
traits, one of Cobb county’s late and
lamentable citizens, Georgias popu
lar son and gifted Statesman, Hoa.
Alexander Stephens Clay, and his
worthy successor, the Hon. Hoke
Smith. I have always been an ad
vocate of the family partnership id=a,
I think it just simply grand for the
parents to recognize the rights of the
children. This produces an appre
ciative and sincere reverence upon
the part of the children for the pa
rents, and is a great incentive in in
ducing the children to make noble
men and women. Miss Victoria, their
oldest child has an accomplished
business education, is a young lady of
high asperations, and takes a keen
interest in the domestic affairs of
home. She will illustrate creditably
the lofty standard of Georgia woman
hood in the Capital City, and Cobb
County can well afford to feel proua
of being represented by this most.
excellent family in the City of Wash
ington. 1 can’t concluade this item
without referring again to the late
Senator Clay. He was one of the
largest souled and piggest hearted
men I ever knew. No. only Cobb
County, but all Georgia can well af
ford to cheerish his honorable mem
ory. He came up from among the
obscure boys of his native County,
demonstrated the possibilities of
common humanity and reached an
influential and lofty position in that
greatest of the worlds assemblage ot
law makers, the American Senate.
And I am glad to know that when his
brilliant mantle Ileft his patriotic
hands that it fell upon the shoulders
of so worthy and distinguished a
statesman as Senator Smith.
* T * *
Already the Moguls of the Senate
and the House are arriving, such
Nationa' celebrities as Senators Kern,
Walsh, James, Lewiz, Smith, (of
Ceorgia,) Kitchen, of North Caro
fing, democratic floor leader of the
Hcuse, Fitzgerald of New York,
James R. Mann, Republican floor
leader of the House and others.
Waghington has on her Sunday
<lothes ‘embe:lished with Congress
icnal airy, @ 4 the general! opinion
Diere is tha = breezy time will mark
this session from the very beginning.
The President’s policy of prepared-
Lexs 1s going to meet with stubborn
opposition, In fact a majority of
people ccming to Washington from
various sections of the country are
opposed to spending any more money
on the army and navy ihq,n is al
ready being spent, namely, $250,-
000,000 anpually. Still I am in
clined to believe that the Presidents
idea in some form or another wiil
pass Congress. You know -it is a
pretty hard matter to impede or pre
vent the passage of a measure when
is has behind it the pressure of the
Administration’s active support. 1f
the people were permitted to go to
' the polls tomorrow and vote upon‘
larger appropiations for military pre
paredness or for the present appro
priations, I believe the latter would
win. One encouraging sign of the
‘times is the general awakening of
the people, for the last six months 1
have never heard National issues
discussed so much by the average
man.
The woman suffragists are booked
to pull off their greatest demonstra
tion upon the convening of Congress,
they will be here in great numbers
from every state, zealous to the core
for their cause, and as firm as Gib
ralter.
It is said that their parade will
be the greatest paegant they have |
ever had, and greater enthusiasm
will charactierize its march to the
Capital.
If irrepressable determination
counts for anything, these patriotic
women are going to make Congress
sit up and take notice. 1 hardly
think this Congress will advance
their cause much, nevertheless it can
not be denied that woman suffrag:
is growing in gréce. As to the wis
dom of its adoption I am not advanc
ing any opinion. That the advocates
have no notion of letting up in their
course to the goal of their ambition
is perfectly transparent.
- - - =
Society folks in Washington are
giving greater prominence to the
marriage of the Presldent to Mrs.
Galt than the convening of Congress.
Mrs. Galt is popular with her neigh
bors, and this in litself speaks well
for her. As a general thing your
neighbors know you best, and when
they think good of you others should
concur. We must not lose sight of
the fact that Mrs. Galt is a Southern
woman. This with the fact that the
late sweet, noble and lamentable
Mrs. Wilson was a Georgia woman,
is quite a deserved compliment to
Southern womanhood, and is sub
stantial evidence that the President
hasn’t forgotten the South. They
go about Washington frequently to
gether and are often seen at the
theaters. Saturday they went for a
two hundred mile drive through

Said Grouchy Bill to Sunny Jim
There’s a fellow 'cross the street, let’s go after him,
He handles every Cola drink, under the sun
Except Coca-Cola, of which “THERE’S BUT ONE'’
His rents are due, his taxes unpaid,
Tho he works quite hard, he has no trade.
Lets show him the way, as you did me
To s=ell Coca-Cola, from debts get free.
For you know dear Jim, it brought me out
It paid off my debts, and now I'm about
To own my home Of the mortgage I'm rid;
Oh; I thank you dear Jim for what you did.
Beside all of that Jim, how good 1 feel
Full of energy and snap, I can’t help the speel
Before 1 was lazy, felt sleepy and bad,
But now all work cheerfully, even to Dad.

Maryland to Chesapeake Bay whera
the Potomac joins the Bay. It was
a kind of outing. They stopped a
long the way and ate lunch prepared
at the White House. They were ac
companied by Mrs. Boling, Mrs. Galis
mother, and several secret service
men.
Senator and Mrs. Hoke Smith are
back from Georgia where they spent
a couple of months. Mrs. Smith’s
health is much improved, so much -o
that they have abandoned the idea
of boarding and will keep house at
their commodious home this winter
on California Avenue at No. 2117.
The Senator is warm in his expres
sions of gratification over the splen
did reception extended to him in the
various sections of Georgia where he
spoke during his recent stay.
He is intensely interested in the
preparation of the Rural Credit bill
which is now being daily considered
by the Committece on Rural Credits.
He is a prominent member of thisi
committee. The Committee is hold—-
ing daily sessions and will continue
to do so until the bill is made
thoroughly practical.
The Senator is determined that
this bill shall be what the farmers
want, at least equal, if not superior
to any Rural Credit system in exis
tence. The bill will be prepared by
the time Congress meets, and will b=
introduced in the early part of the
session, and passed, I think, without
any particular copposition, as the ite
publicans concede the logical neces—
sity of an intelligent and effective
Rural Credit system.

In spite of all that has been said
of Marietta, Ga., the fact remains
that not all Marietta fclks are bar
barians, and it is quite probable that
Marietta can prodnce good citizens
at any hour and minute of the day.
Some folks may think it strange that
Marietta has a Civic League, but she
has just the same. And the Civic
League had a big parade not long
ago—October 5, to be correct. In
the cut which we show on our cover
may be seen the truck of the Mariet
ta, (Ga.,) Coca-Cola Bottling Com
pany, as it appeared in the Civic
League Carnival. It attracted con
siderable attention and much fav
orable comment, as it well deserved
The Marietta plant is a branch of
the Atlanta Coca-Cola Bottling Com
pany, and is managed by Mr. E. M.
Smith, who is always on the job
when it comes to keeping his pro
ducts before the public. In spite of
“the war,”” the Marietta plant has
