8!, SENATOR SMITH AT ROYSTON ft
i
e e
The Elberton Star gives the fol
lowing report of a speech recently
delivered by Senator Hoke Smith at
Royston:
“*No speaker who has ever appear
ed Defore a Royston audience has re
.ceived more close attention than ac
corded Senator Hoke Smith Tuesday
evening. He spoke for more than an
hour and a half, discussing at
length the legislation on rural cred
ite, the regional banking system, the
new contract under which Wall St.
is forced to do business as compared
to the old, the Smith-Lever bill and
what it meant for the country; the
goed roads legislatjon; and other
bills which have been beneficial to
the people of the Southland. Sen
ator Smith explained the insurance
of cotton in 1914 which has been so
gseverely criticised in some quarters,
and showed that not only was t.lm‘
insurance policy of government a‘
good thing for the cotton farmer,
but at the same time instead of “‘rob
bing the people to pay speculators,’
as has been charged by some, that
this little business undertaking of
the government had earned a net
profit to Uncle Sam of two million
dellars. He dwelt at length upon
the legislation enacted for the bene
fit of the farmer, and to the demo
cratic party he gives credit for more
good wholesome legislation in the
farmer’s behalf -than had been en
acted before in numbers of years, if
ever. The senator concluded his re
marks with a tribute to Woodrow
Wilsen, commending the president
for his action in regard to I\vaiwul
and all foreign nations, and :msvrt-l
ing truly that he is bne of the
greatest presidents the country q,\'(-rl
knew. ,
“The speech throughout was well |
received, not a word being uttm'vdl
in regard to state politics, but lm-l
ing confined to national lv_u‘i.\']nti()n{
for the geod of the masses.”
A PRISON CONCERT
Mr. and Mrs. nen Baldwin motor
ed to the federal prison near At
lanta last Sunday afternoon to hear
the music of the orchestra which is
composed of Hu prisoners. Although
no cars were running the hall was
full. Admission is by tickets given
by the warden of the prison. He
buys all the guards uniforms from
mr. Baldwin who has therefore a
standing invitation.
The musicians are taught and al
lowed to practice and their beauti
ful melodies bless both themselves
and their hearers. A ‘concord of
sweet sounds’ soothes troubled
hearts and echoes in memories like
the fragrance of roses.
These prisoners wear blue over
alls instead of the hideous convict
garb that crushed all hope from the
heart.
The prison band wears an all
white uniform that puts self res
pect into their hearts. Our Uncle
Sam seems to have adopted a policy
if not a motto of “noblesse oblige"
and is lifting up and healing the
down-trodden and wounded,
Mrs. Baldwin told us many in
teresting things about the inndva
tions in prison methods of discipline
which we caunot reproduce but if
you ever have a chance to hear these
convicts play do not miss it.
ELRBERT CLAY WON THE DAY
Again Herbert Clay has won the day
BUTT he had to fight to win.
But Herbert had no thought of be
ing a “has been.”
Some said he must be beat,
But his mether said he got plenty. of
that i
When he was a boy in his bare feet.
Here's to Herbeet Clay,
Our golden hearted Solicitor-General
1 hope I may never be called upon
To attend his political funeral.

A TRIP TO BERMUDA ISLANDS.
Mrs. J. Gid Morris has returned
from a visit to her daughters, Mrs.
John McFarland and Miss Wreath
Morris in New York City and they
made a visit to Boston, Mass., and
also to the Bermuda Islands.
Mrs. Morris was charmed with
this ““Jittle bit of heaven” belonging
to Great Britain and insists it is
the prettiest place in the world. It
is covered with Bermuda grass and
all the roads are white shell. No
automobiles are allowed to roughen
the smooth streets and poison the
breeze with gasoline fumes.
The trees are big magnolias and
palms and tropical flowers are ev
erywhere. And on some of these
islands the British have stored a lot
of their prisoners of war.
QUIEN SABE?
A prominent Baptist D. D. once
preached a fine sermon at a church
in Atlanta on the two sayings: “If
you want a thing done do it yourseif
and if you want a thing done, don’t
do it yourself.”” He had tried the
first way in his youth and the sec
ond in mature life, This sermon
came to mind a few days ago when
we met a prominent citizen going
home about half past 8 in the morn
ing with a plumber’'s tools in each
hand and grim determination in his
countenance. He remarked briefly
as he hurried on: “Something al
ways needs to be tightened up in a
new place” and we are still wander
ing whether that man will continue
to believe the first half of the
preacher’s text after he leaves the
heights to journey down life's wes
tern way.

SHOSHONE DAM IN TOWN
Marietta friends of the Coles
were thrilled with awe and pride
Tuesday afternoon when the Gem
theater displayed views of the great
Shoshone Dam in the mountains of
northern Wyoming. This magni
ficient reclamation work was done
under the supervision of Mr. Web
ster Cole, son of Mrs. H. G. Cole, of
Marietta, and will stand for ages as
a monument to his engineering skill,
his persistence and his ability to
lead men—not drive them. He ac
complished this great work after it
had been abandoned as impossible
by twoor three engineers. Mr.
Marchman was fortunate in secur
ing this fine attraction for the Gem.
NEWSPAPER WOMAN IN
ALPHARETTA
“Last week the Free Press was
really delighted when Mrs. Annie
Carter, the bright editor of the Ma
rietta Journal, accompanied by Miss
Grace Timothy, a®*stenographer and
typist, broke in like a ray of sun
shine and brightened our ofiice.
Mrs. Carter is one of the brightest

the old Marietta Journal one of
the best newspapers in Georgia, and
we believe her efforts are appre
