AUGUSTA SECURES THE
MANEUVER CAMP.
It Is good news that Augusta, has
been successful In Its efforts to secure
the manuever camp and that North
and South Carotins. Florida and Geor
gia regiments are to gather In Augus
ta this summer for their annual
mnnuevers.
Augusta s record with the War Po
part msfit for Camp McKenxle has
stood for tho closest Inspection, and
undoubtedly secured favorable consid
eration. Local Influences have been
active and persistent in presenting the
claim a or this city.
Undoubtedly the quiet influence
and the hearty endorsement of Briga
dier General Duvall, retired, who has
made Augusta his home has also been
of great help to the local Influences
that have been exerted to secure this
camp for Augusta.
The action of City Council and of
the street rail way company Ims been
prompt and generous also in meeting
the requirements of tho government.
In fact, nil Interests in Augusta have
worked him! and in harmony to se
cure this camp for Augusta.
This is the kind of team work that
wins for any city. Keep it up and
Augusta will continue to win.

THE WA YS OF THRIFT
(Copyrighted. 1914, American Society for Thrift.)
THRIFT GROWN IN GARDENS.
An Irish tmlmgrunt, Adam l'"o*ter, came to thin country eleven years
ago villi 11 wife and two children. At first he earned twelve dollars a
week an a car conductor In it small Massaehuaett* town, and saw no
cl am 1 1 ; rising above fourteen dollars a week In a lino of work which
could accumulate little for him but patience.
At 'I 1* end of tile car line them wan a small unoccupied cottage and
an adjoining field. With the nix hundred dollars he had thriftily saved
out o' his meagre earnings, and four hundred which he borrowed for the
investment, he took possession of hls property. He gave his whole at
tention to raising cucumbers under glass. The first year he paid off hls
loan and supported his family. The next year he put more of tho field
under cultivation hut still specialized on cucumbers. He worked, and
money accumulated which enabled him to put In Improvements and run
hls business along broader lines. I.a ter automobiles and an auto truck
conserved lime and energy. Today, at the end of eleven years, he has
three acres under glass and a plant valued at fifty thousand dollars.
Similar experiences have been the result of work ol’ the Philadelphia
Vacant hot Cultivation Society, by which Idle people and Idle lands are
brought together. Men and hoys are given the use of an acre or a pait
of an acre, ami with the thrifty uso of It and a market on all sides, four
thousand Individuals prospered In different degrees last year according to
their understanding of the word thrift. Happiness resulting from whole
some recreation made the actual work seem light. Some have had good
livable Incomes from the flty lots; the morning and evening work of
others has supplemented the small salaries of shops and factories. In all
sixty thousand dollars worth of vegetables were produced last year from
what had been Idle land.
The public school gardens ndvocatsd by the American Society for
Thrift are placing in the hands of the school children the same opportu
nities. Many a child with thrift In the school garden has started a hank
account while seeds of something more valuable than flowers and vege
tables have been planted which will hear fruit for years to come.
Two thousand children In the public schools of Memphis, Tcnn., un
der the direction of their superintendent. 1,. K. Wolfe, avereaged ten dol
lars apiece from their work In school gardens In 1910. Mr. Simon W.
Straits, president of the American Society for Thrift, estimates that the
public school children In the United States can easily earn a hundred inll
lli.n dollars a year from school and home gardens, at the same time In
creasing lheir efficiency in school room work. "Though one grain fills
not the sack, It helps."
I»r. Wolfe advocates making each graduate's diploma depend to some
extent on the work that has been done outside of classes. He says. "Many
hoys by the time they are twenty-one would earn $1,000; many more $500;
and a large army of boys and girls from SIOO to S4OO. These earnings
with the habits of Industry and thrift formed In making the earnings,
would go far toward Insuring financial success In their life work."
THEN AND NOW
Tho first woman to become a reg
ularly ordained minister was born
89 yfrfrs ago yesterday. She was
Antoinette Izmiae Brown, later Mrs.
Samuel C. Blackwell, the daughter of
a farmer of Henrietta, N. Y. When
she came to consider a college elu
cation In IH4" the collegiate Inatl
tutu, now Oberlln College, waa the
only institution of its kind in Amer
ica where women could pursue a col
leglate education. She waa graduat
ed In the literary course and In the
theological school hut although aha
established later a reputation as a
brilliant apeaker. she waa refused a
license as a preacher She turned to
lecturing upon women's rights, and
was a leading member of the first
Woman's lttghu Convention that
met in Worcester. Muss., In 1850.
Three j ears later l!u* bur ag ilnat her
entry to the ministry was lowered
and she was ordained it* pastor of
the Congregational Church at South
ltutler, N Y l-ater she joined the
Unitarian ministry, always contlnu-
were robbed In quite a "respectable"
way, by a millionaire who did not even
need their money.
Mr. Morgan died In the odor of
sanctity. Ills will was praised from
the pulpits, because It expressed an
unswervable futlh In Ids own salva
tion. based upon his belief In Jesus
t'hrlst, Ihe Son of that. A testimonial
from one so rich seemed to lend lustre,
eve to so Ktvat and pure a thing as
the Christian religion
Even now, the radiance of his gold
seems to linger around his memory
and shed a blinding light over this
great revelations of his betrayal of
trust, Id* unscrupulous waste of the
money of others, his alliance with cor
rupt politics and his vast exi*endlture*
(also of other people* money* for the
purpose of keeping the public blinded
through suppressing and perverting
legitimate news.
■Hie crimes of burglarising a home,
of picking a pocket, of holding up a
roadside wanderer for hla watch and
of stealing a chicken are well under
stood! but when these Injustices are
committed on a gigantic scale, when
suffering and want are spread broad
cast because of the Insatiable greed
of millionaires, they are palliated and
accepted.
There la some fundamental rotten
ness In a system of business rinance
which permits such things to b« and
lug her agitutlon for woman suffrage.
Today more than 2,500 women are
preaching aa regular ordained min
isters In the United States. More
than 7,000 others are regularly cer
tified physicians and surgeons. Prob
ably 2,000 more are reglstertd as
members of the legal profession, and
thousands are scattered among va
rious professions and Industries,
which half a century ago were con
sidered solely fields for masculine en
deavor. Many cities today have wo
men as mayors and heads of civic de
partments. State and city school
hoards are headed by women. There
lire n score of women who have the
right to practice law before the
United States Supreme Court. Many
colleges have adopted co-eilucation.
while there are more than thirty col
leges devoted exclusively to the fem
inine sex In the universities, col
lege* and technical schools In the
United States during the last year
there were over 5.0(H) women profes
sors and Instructors and mors than
100,000 women students. —Exchange.
prevent* the average man from seeing
them squarely and proportionately.
The New York World aptly remarks
that the men who so abused their pow -
er. bertyadc the confidence of the
stockholders, an.i burglarised this rail
road are "admittedly represented the
best that there is In Wall street. Their
judgments were regarded as well-nigh
Infallible, Wall street was proud of
them, boasted of them, almost defied
them. Yet look at their work!”
"Is American finance on such a basis
that respectable burglary Is the best
that can be expected of It-*" asks the
World. "In order to hold their fi
nancial supremacy in Wall street,
must Morgan or a Rockefeller do the
same kind of things In a financial way
(hat a Murphy is compelled to do in
a political wav In order to hold his su
premacy In Fourteenth street * Are
all great undertakings that fall Into
the clutches of our captains of finance
exposed to the same risks and the
same vicissitudes as was the New
Haven under the Morgan-Rockefeller
domination?
"This management was In the hands
of men who were regarded by every
body as the beat product of our pres
ent financial and Industrial system
We know what they did, and If they
were the best product of that system,
what of the future? What has the
country to look forward to while that
system survivesr*
