SPLENDID MASS MEETING HELO
LAST NIGHT IN INTEREST CHARITY
$2,300 Was Raised. Which Is
Considered a Splendid Begin
ning in Campaiqn for the
SIO,OOO Fund.
DR. BUCHANON MADE A
VERY FINE IMPRESSION
Large Number Was Present
and Listened With Intense
Interest to Discussion of
Charity Problems By An
Expert.
One of the most successful mass
meetings ever in Augusta was held
at the First Baptist Church last night
when $2,200 was raised by subscrip
tion for the re-orgittlzed Associated
Charities of this city. The $2,300 Is
a portion of the SIO,OOO to be raised
annually to supplement the money
which is annually donated to charity
purposes by the city and county au
thorities Dr. Howard T. Cree, pas
tor o fthe First Christian Church, who
made tho appeal for funds after sev
eral addresses had been delivered. In
cluding a most able one by Dr James
Buchanon, secretary of the Associated
Charities of Richmond, Va., stated
that $2,500 should he raised by the
mass meeting last night It will he
noted that an amount within S2OO of
the sum named was secured.
Many In Attendance.
The mass meeting, which was to
have been held In tne opera house,
hut, which was transferred to the
First Baptist because of the opera
house heating apparatus being out ol
commission, was attended by a large
number of people. The church, in
fact, was crowded and people from
every denomination nnd every walk or
llge were present. There were no
services held In the central churches
on account of the mass meeting.
Mr Wm H. Barertt presided and
Introduced Dr. Buchanon, who made
tile principal address. Dr. Buchanon,
who has made such a splendid success
with the charity work of his home
city that he was asked to come over
to Augusta and show the people oi
this city how to deal with problems,
spoke in a wonderfully Impressive
manner and he was listened to with
the closest attention. Dr. Buchan
on's address made a splendid impres
sion Before many of the people of
Augusta, assembled in mass meeting,
was a big hearted, big brained man,
who has studied the problem of the
poor with grout earnestness and who
is an expert on dealing with people
who are charges on the community.
Duty of a Community to Care for
Its Poor.
Dr. Buchanon said that it was the
Christum duty of a community to care
tor that portion of the community
which is in need of help, for unless
they are cared for in the right man
ner they become a menace. Dr. lluch
unon spoke of the different problems
that confront Associated Charities ot
ficers, of the chronic seeker after as
sistance, of the unworthy appellant
for aid. and of the people who help
because ot a temporary embarrass
ment in their affairs.
Dr. Buchanon impressed his hear- i
ere as being a man who knew where- j
of he spoke, and after that address a i
great many Augustan* will view the
charity work of Augusta In an entire
ly different light
After Dr Buchanon's address Mr.
\S tn H. Barrett made a short talk In
which ho outlined the purposes of the
re-organized Associated Charities of
the co-ordination which has been se
cured, etc. Then there were short
talks made b> Messrs Chae E. Whit
ney, E. B Hook, A. H. Merry, C. D.

WANTED TO KNOW
Ths Truth About Grape-Nuts Food
It doesn’t matter so much what yqu
hear about a thing. It's what you know
that counts. And correct knowledge is
most likely to come from personal ex
perlencec.
"About a year ago," writes a N. Y.
man. "I was bothered by indigestion,
especially during the forenoon. I tried
several remedies without any perma
nent improvement.
"My breakfast usually consisted of
oatmeal, steak or chops, bread, coffee
and some fruit.
“Hearing so much about Grape-Nuts.
I concluded tb give it a trial and find
out If ali I had heard of it was true.
"So I began with Grape-Nuts and
cream, soft boiled eggs, toast, a cup ol
Postum and some fruit. Before the
end of the first week l was rid of the
acidity of the stomach and felt rhuch
relieved,
"By the end of the second week all
traces of indigestion had disappeared
and 1 was in first rate health once
more. Before beginning this course of
diet, I never had *n> appetite for
lunch, but now I can enjoy the meal at
noon time."

FRINGE CABINET
IBOlinO FALL
Many Rumors Monday That it
Is Imminent As Sequel to
The “Affaire Caillaux.”
Paris. —Many rumors were current
in political circles today as to the
probable fall of the French cabinet as
a .sequel to revelations of government
influence having been brought to bear
to procure a postponement of the trial
of Henri Rochette, alleged swindler.
In lobbies of the chamber Of depu
ties and the senate it was said that
announcement would be made shortly
of the resignations of Albert Lebrun,
minister for the colonies, Rene Viviani,
minister of public instruction, and An
dre Maginot, under secretary of state
for war.
It was argued among members that
in case the cabinet continues in office
it will probably he only because the
opposition groups are unwilling to
form o government until after the
elections in April.
Joseph Caillaux, former minister of
finace. appeared before the chamber
of deputies committee in vestlgating
the Rochette affair today and denied
he had either directly or indirectly re
quested Maurice Bernard, represent
ing Rochette to ask for a postponement
of the trial. He said:
“I give you .my word of honor that I
did nothing more than transmit to
Ernest Monts, then Premier ,the in
quiries made by Rochette's lawyers
as to whether the government would
oppose a postponement of the trial."
EXPRESSIONS ON THE

Start Was Made and Every

the mass meeing at the First Bap
tist church last night. He said:
‘‘lt was a fine meeting, a repre
sentative meeting and was very
gratifying to those undertaking
the reorganization of the Asso
ciated Charities of Augtlsta. The
meeting was a medium by which
we were enabled to explain to the
people of Augusta the purposes of
the reorganization plan and every
one Is much pleased."
Dr. M. .Ashby Jones was asked
for his opinion regardin gthe mass
meeting at the First Baptist
church and he said'.
"It was a magnificent beginning.
Despite the cold weather, there
was a fine audience and a fine
spirit and a splendid start was
made Then, too. It must he re
membered that the great bulk of
our city's givers were not there. I
am sure that every one interested
in the movement is highly grati
fied at the result of the meeting
last night."
Asked for an expression regard
ing the mass meeting last night
Dr. Howard T. Cree said toda>.
"The meeting was a very satis
factory beginning of the first pub
lic appeal for funds and the re
sponse was quite as well as was
expected .and gives promise of the
ultimate success of the move
ment. Every one connected with
the movement is much pleased at
the splendid start last night. The
most encouraging feature is the
sympathy with which the move
ment Is regarded by the people of
Augusta.”
Mr Wm. H. Barrett said:
“The meeting was quite satis
factory and a good start was made
toward raising the amount need
ed. The people are, beginning to
appreciate the needs of the poor of

labor leader who returned to Trinidad
last night where coal miners are on

In bloodshed. A week ago today
"Mother" Jones came to Denver after
three months’ imprisonment in San
Rafael Hospitals. At the time she
declared she was deported and vowed
that site would return to Trinidad at
once to urge "her boys to fight and to
encourage the wives of the striking
miners.”
If she is re-arrested at Trinidad, at
torneys for the mine workers said ha
beas corpus proceedings would be
taken up at once.
Triniad, Colo. —“lt’s a plain case of
kidnapping, nothing else,” declared
John R. Lawson, international board
member of the United Mine Workers
when advised that "Mother" Jones had
been taken from a train at Walsonbur
by military officers. .
"Mother" Jones was going through
through the place and as far as I know
there is absolutely no charge against
her.” »
