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.

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." Name given by Postum Co.. Battle Creek, Mich. Read "The Road to Well vllie."

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."

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.

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.
