GREAT BRITAIN
ABANDONS HOPE
LOCARNO PARLEY
EUROPEAN DISSENSION AS
SIGNED AS CAUSE OF
FAILURE
LONDON, July 14 (TP) .—British
officials apparently abandoned hope
today of getting the Locarno powers
together for a conference this month.
The conference had been called for
July 22 at Brussels to discuss German
remilitarization. Now Premier Mus
solini demands that Germany be al
lowed to attend the party. France
opposed German admission on the
grounds that Chancellor Hitler had
let himself out when he renounced
the Locarno pact last spring.
Italy also insisted that all Britain’s
Mediterranean guarantees be dropped.
Great Britain still clings to the naval
agreements she made with Mediter
ranean nations when the Ethiopian
war brought the League of Nations
down on Italy.
British officials say the only
chance of holding a Locarno confer
ence at all is to persuade France to
relent on her opposition to Germany.
Unless the conference is attended by
the full five powers it is feared that
no conference will be held at all.
BRIBERY CHARGES ARISE

A police Judge and two former liquor
control officers are due to be arraign
ed today on bribery’ charges. The
Judge is George Washington Hick
man, of Albany. Mike Connolly and
E. N. Bergsten, both of Oakland, are j
the former liquor control officers. I
The charges grew out of the Ale
meca County grand jury's investiga
tion into alleged irregularities in con
nection with the State Board of
Equalizers.

—Hatchet Hall is coming back!
The home of Carrie Nation, liquors

tween Little Eureka and Onyx

will be rebuilt along the same lines
as the famous building was in the
days a few years prior to 1911.
Mrs. Ada Kendrick, of Fort Lauder
dale, Fla., and the Rev. Sara Selle,
have announced the old building has
been purchased and funds now are
being solicited from her followers and
others to finance the remodeling.
Modern Touches
The Reverend Selle, who is directing
the work of rebuilding the home,
says:
■ We are going to put the old home
back just like it was as far as pos
sible. The exterior of the building is
just as it was when Mrs. Nation died,
and it will remain the same except
for a few additions. The interior, of
course, will be modernized to meet
present day needs.

STATE OF GEORGIA
CHATHAM COUNTY:
In the Office of Clerk of Superior
Court of Said County.
I, William L. Grayson, Clerk oi
the Superior Court of Said County
hereby certify that the foregoing is
a true and correct copy of the appll
cation for charter, as the same ap
pears of file in this office.
This 14th day of July, 1936.
WILLIAM L. GRAYSON,
Clerk of Superior Court.
“Our purpose is to revive an inter
est in the temperance cause and to
do what we can to make it ‘a house
by the side of the road and a friend
to man’. I have been a pastor for
five year, and we hear a good deal
about Carrie Nation yet.”
When Hatchet Hall is rebuilt, it
will be made into "a national temper
ance and religious education tourist
home, according to the Reverend
Selle.
Carrie Nations raids were spectacu
lar. Those were the days when saloons
operated freely, inspiring the author
ship of “Ten Nights in a Bar Room”
and similar ditties. Carrie’s first
smashing act was staged on June 6,
1899, when she wrecked a place at
Kiowa Kas. From then on she be
came known “smashing Carrie Na
tion.” Her followers termed her a
“Loving Home Defender” and for 12
years she traveled throughout the
United States, Canada and once went
to old Mexico, England and Scotland.
She landed in jail 33 times. Her last
raid was in the Union station in Wash
ington D. C.
Although liquor was the biggest foe
she recognized during her eventful
life, Mrs. Nation had a strong desire
to eradicate all forms of vice. When
she led a march on a saloon even the
toughest of the tough saloon loafers
soon scattered to a place of safety.
Armed with a hatchet, she also be
came known as the “hatchet woman.”
Bom in Kentucky on Nov. 25, 1846,
in Garrard county, she became re»
ligiously minded early in childhood
and joined the Christian church. On
Nov. 21, 1867 she married a Dr.
Gloyd, but was left a widow in less
than a year and a half, with a six
month-old girl.
Carried became personally acquaint
ed with the evils of liquor because
Dr. Gloyd according to old news
paper stories, was a heavy drinker.
Following her unfortunate experiences
with liquor in her own family, she
stated out to reform the world, al
though she did not take up her fam
ous hatchet until a number of years
later.
She married again, this time to
David Nation, editor of a weekly
newspaper at Warrensburg Mo., who
was also a lawyer and an ordained
minister. Her second marriage was
another failure, however, because her
husband was not in sympathy with
his wife’s crusades.
God has given me a mission ”
she told him. "I dare not turn back.
Shall I hearken unto God or unto
man? Judge ye.”
But Nation divorced his wife. He
died in 1907, four years before Car
rie.
In December. 1910, Mrs. Nation’s
health was failing and she returned
to Hatchet Hall here for a rest. It
was quiet, and in the afternoons she
liked to sit on the porch and read.
She preferred the solitude of Hatchet
Hall to the hustling, bustling cities
with their saloons and vice.
She was taken to a Kansas City
hospital for treatment two weeks lat
er and died soon afterward, at the
age of 65.
Mrs. Kendrick who was Mrs. Na
tion’s secretary the last three years
of her life, is interested in seeing the
cursader’s temperance work carried
on. So is the Reverend Selle. They
believe by making a memorial of
Hatchet Hall that the name of Carrie
Nation will be preserved for all time.
