WHAT IS ELEGANCE. “Elegance is native, it does not rest on the form of a skirt or the cut of a habit. We adorn or detract from our clothes —we make them elegant or vulgar.” That is what Alphonse Daudet thought of elegance—and of the way women wore their clothes. He wap referring to the Empress Eugene, a v orran of supreme elegance, and as the styles she helped to make famous are the styles that some our clothes follow today. Daudet’s words are worth heeding. For surely the clothes of the second French empire are clothes that must be carefully worn. » Elegance is hardly a characteristic Shat can he had for the asking. But Jieither is It a characteristic that can l(>e easily lost. So those of us who pos se i it may rest content in the thought that it is one of our greatest assets and those of us who have it not, may rest content in the knowledge that clothes would not give it to us, even ilf we could spend thousands of dol lars a year for them. For . as Daudet says, "we adorn or detract from our clothes. We make them elegant or vulgar.” 'They do not make us.

To Report Saturday on Site For Mew Tubman High School Sub-Committee From Board of Education Visited Scheutzen Platz Property on Walton Way Friday—Nothing Definite Can Be Stated Till Annual Meeting of Board of Education. The sub-committee of the high school committee of the Board or Education, consisting of Messrs. T. I. Hickman, Chas. E. Whitney, Geo. C. Schafele and Capt. Jas. I. Fleming, ex-officio, apopinted for the purpose of looking into the matter of select inf a site for the new Tubman High fc’chool, visited the Schuetzen Platz property on Walton Way Friday. The committee will not make its report until the entire board meets in an nual session next Saturday. At this time, in all probability, something definite will be in shape for an nouncement regarding the new Tub man. The so gentlemen who visited the property in behalf of the school trustees will hold a meeting this week to come to some conclusion as to what their recommendations will be to the board. One of the members of the sub committee seen yesteday would not make a statement as to what was thought of the Platz property for a new Tubman, saying that nothing could be told until the proposition Is laid before the entire board. Mr. T. H. Garrett, principal of the Tubman, is very favorably impressed The “Fourth” Produced But Very Few Fights; None Were Serious Skull of Luke Freeman, Negro, Fractured by Brickbat. G. D. Brooks, Another Negro, Slashed With Knife in Back in Alley Near Broad Street, 800 Block. Assailant in Jail. Cutting scrapes and fights of a se rious nature were comparatively few yesterday for the Fourth of July. At midnight a calm hung over the town, from the police standpoint. Among the few who were hurt in fights were two negroes, Luke Free man. who was hit on the head with a ■brickbat at the corner of Forsyth and Telfair Streets by a negro who suc ceeded in making his esca)pe, and G. D. Brooks, who was severely cut with- a knife In the left side and back. Both negroes were taken to the La mar Hospital. It was found that Freeman had a fractured skull. An operation was performed on Brooks, and at a late hour last night it was stated that his chances for recovery were good. Brooks was cut, say the police, by Walter Ehney, a negro, who was ar Impressive Exercises At The Courthouse By D. A . R. Celebration of Anniversary of Nations Birth Big Success. Able Speech By Mr. Lee. The impressive, beautiful and solemn celebration of the Fourth of July by the D. A. lt.’s Saturday afternoon weft held, not in the Court House yard, as originally intended, bi t in the U. 1). C. hail, in the basement df the CoiyJ House building. The weather was un certain while the preparations were being made early In the afternoon and it was decided to hold the exercises indoors. In the absence of the mayor of the city, Hon. Llnwood Hayne, Mrs. Percy Burum, the president of the Augusta chapter of the D. A. R., presided over the ceremonies. A very large and especially repre sentative gathering congregated at 6 o’clock, despite the somewhat doubtful t ather, and the spirit of the meeting was, it almost seemed, a flame re kindled from the old fire of 1776. All those quiet, reverent people, come to gether to commemorate the birth of their fatherland and to give thanks for its preservation and survival through all the past of tears and blood ■—ther was osmething In It that was Inspiring. One saw, as It were, the vision of the civil war, that wound which It would seem no time could heal and yet one felt there was an other cause, older and above, a cause before which even that paled, which had survived the tragedy and the hate, which bound Americans together yet in the name of the Thirteen Colonies, and which had floated out to them over the years, like the shadow of the flag. Mrs. Burum opened the exercises with a few well chosen and graceful words of welcome, after which she in troduced the Hon. W. E. Keener, who read the original Declaration of Inde pendence. After this tnc St. James choir (Mrs. C. N. Bowden, Miss L. H. Wilson, Mr. Lester Tyce and Mr. W. L Ewing) sang "America,” In which everytiody joined enthusiastically. There Is noth ing like in; plring music to arouse and thrill patriotism in the hearts of a crowd! Mississippi Birds Won Over North Carolina in Big Fight Affair Was Staged 62 Miles Below the City. Party Went Down Aboard Steamer. $2,000 Went to the Winners. One of the biggest cocking mains held In the Mouth in recent years was pulled off down the fc’avannah River below Augusta Saturday, when the birds from Mississippi won over the North Carolina gamecocks In a de cisive manner. The winner secured $2,000 In prizes, in addition to the money he won by making bets. There were seventeen birds matched and those from Mississippi won nine of the first thirteen and thus won the match. Cock fighting In former days van one of the chlefest sports In this sec tion of the country and the big events brought hundr-'-ds of people to the city from all over the Souh. For the fight yesterday probably U,9 sports gathered from all over the South. Barred from fighting In Rich mond County the cock lighters secur ed a boat on which they Intended to steam down the river to go to some convenient spot on the Carolina side. However, warnings were Issued by the sheriffs in that state and the big fight Is said to have ben held In mid THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA. with the site. He says tht it is the largest lot available that could at all be used for the Tubman High School, and in his opinion is very well locat ed. He has ascertained from a large map of the city of Augusta, by dotting off the homes of the 218 girls who attended Tubman last year, that there are as present only a very few more living closer to the present site than the one proposed. Since the growth of the town is extending in the direc tion of the Platz property, it is be lieved that in a tew years hence It will be as near the center of the sec tion In which students of Tubman re side as practical. No explanation need be gone into concerning the great need Tor a girls’ high school In Augusta that will be suflicently adequate In size to take care of the continued Increase In girl high school pupils here. Last year It was only on account of the addition of two class rooms to Tubman that the great increase w'as taken care If. This year there will be no more room and many pupils will be turned away. Already, Mr. Garrett states, there are 125 applications for the Freshman class with accommodations for only one hundred. rested at the time. A great deal of attention was attracted to the fight by the screams of two negro women who were present at the time. The trouble happened just off Broad Street in an alley running between Broad and Kills Streeta on the 800 block. Chief Detective Whittle and Officer Seals went to the scene of the cut ting and whet} arrived the negro who did the .cutting was being held by the negro who had been nearly slashed to death and was being ham mered in the face the wounded man, who was using his fists to a telling degree. The negro was soon after weak from the loss of blood and was rushed to the hospital a« soon as possible. The cause of tire fight was vague to the police. When the lats strains had died down Mrs. Burum Introduced the Hon. Lans ing B. Lee, orator of the day. Mr. Lee's Speech. Mr. Lee, in a really masterly speech, dwelt on many points of nation-wide Interest. His was not a usual, ora torical, “Fourth of July" speech, full of bombastic to make people applaud and to leave their minds empty. After a brief reference to the meaning of the "Fourth” he went on to a discussion its the Amer ican Idea of government, und thence to a brief resume of the Mexican sit uation, showing how the policy of the present administration towards Mexico coincided with the accepted ideals of this nation’s foreign policy. He went on to point out, in a fur ther field, that the Ideals of Amer ican freedom and democracy, of which Americans are so proud and for which every man and woman of us would no doubt fight to the death, were Ideals rather than facts, in 1776, he said, our forefathers fought for freedom against a peri! from without; but let us not consider their victory our eman cipation. We are now confronted with no less serious perils from within. This Is not the promised land of equal op portunity. “The people of this country may he sovereign and supreme, but the voice of the sovereign has been scarcely heard in the councils of the nation.” We may have a revolution yet to fight before we achieve that state of liberty and equality of which our ancestors dreamed and for which they died. Let us combine to throw off the yoke of the tariff and the trusts. "The almighty dollar has been esteemed more highly than human safety and human life." Mr ]s»e was applauded to the eeho.

In the senior or ganization the New York (.Hunts led their league on July Ist in both 1912 and 1919. Two years ago the Met lYawiti s were making a runaway race of the pennant contest, having won fifty and lost eleven games for an average of .820. Pittsburgh was second with thirty-seven games won and twenty-five lost, giving the Pirates a percentage of .597. (Chi cago, with .567, was third, having lost twenty-six games and won thirty-four. Cincinnati completed the first division with thirty-five victories and thirty-two defeats, the Red’s percentage being .522. Philadelphia, Brooklyn, St. Routs and Boston followed In the order named with percentages of .423, 4<>7, .391 and ,30*J respectively. Last season’s standing showed seve ral marked changes over this order, for while the Giants were showing the way. their lead was of the narrowest mar gin for Philadelphia was In second place and Brooklyn followed the Quakers closely. In fact but .120 points separated the first four teams against approxi mately .300 jn 1912. The New Yoik club, ultimate winners of the pennant, had a percentage of .635 to Philadelphia's .633. The Giants had won forty games and lost twenty-three, while the Quak ers score stood thlVty-elght games won and twenty-two lost. Brooklyn, which held sixth place In 1912, was but 76 points behind the second place club, having won thirty-four games and lost twenty-seven. Chicago completed the list of first division teams with a per centage of .615. The second half of the league standing was occupied by Pitts burgh, Ht. Louis, Boston and Cincinnati, with respective percent.ig(*s of .461, .421, .413 and .379. In the American League the Philadel phia Athletics were not pitying at top speed In 1912 and held second place with the Boston Red Sox showing the v r ay. Chicago was third and Washington fourth. The race was much closer, how ever, than that In the National organi sation, for Boston had hut 128 points separating the fist and fourth teams, the standing being: Boston, won 46, lost 21, percentage .687; Philadelphia, won 38,’ lost 25, percentage .602; Chicago, won 38, lost 28, percentage .576; Wash ington, won 38, lost 30, percentage .659. Cleveland, Detroit, New York and St. Ixmis formed the Tear guard In the or der named. Last season the Athletics held a lend of such p»oportlons that the fans wcie already beginning to concede the pen nant to Connie Mack’s players. With forty-eight games won and seventeen lost, the Philadelphia club showed a per centage of .738 aginst Cleveland's .600, for forty-two games won and twenty eight lost. Chicago was again in third place with thirty-nine victories and thirty-two defeats, giving the White Sox .649. Washington, while not going as strong as in 1912, still managed to hold fourth place, thirteen points behind Chi cago and five points ahead of Boston, which In one year had dropped from first to fifth place. Detroit St. Louis and New York brought up in the rear us they did In 1912. POLICE HAS LIVELY TIME ON THE GLORIOUS FOURTH There was 11 hot time in the old town hint night. The police had an evening that reminded them of a really feHtive Christmas Eve. Most of tho cases brought in were plain drunks, but there was enough variety to W*n I Hpice. The battle royal that took place at the lake between a crowd of Harrisburg hoys and a small army of Empire building employes was inter esting. One of the employes claimed that he was not being treated fairly in being made to pay a second en trance fee Into the dance pavilion when he. had gone out only for a mo ment. He emphasized Ills sentiments by sailing Into the door keeper with some violence. It was a lively scrap for a few moments, till It was Joined gradually by friends on both sides, when it became a brisk engagement almost a battle. A large number wns brought In In the patrol wagon from the scene of operations. The guard room Is nearly full. Home are cursing, some whistling gaily, oth ers calling loudly for "Wafer! Water;” others art* too drunk to know where they are. The latter are the most to be envied of the lot. SEX ASSERTING IT9ELF The woman teacher had a mixed class of hoys and girls. "1 gave them a dic tation lesson," she said, "to see how they could manage words which are sounded alike and spelt differently. Would you believe that most of the girls spelt ‘sail’ ‘sale’ and that must of the hoys spelt ‘sale’ ‘sail?’ Vou see the sex difference shows Itself at a very early stage." Mrooklyn Ragle.
