/Been bitterly opposed by the Minis,

members dared to take any definite
steps until Brace Newsom proposed
the idea of a He-Vamp Club to nul

council. It is understood that he
acted only a the suggestion of Dean
Farrar, who Dame Rumor says is a-
“silent” member of the Griper’s
Club. Red Welch and H. J- John
ston were accepted as new members
' of the Griper’s Club. These two

have to step lively or they will be

and the Lawyer,’'
Attorney K. K, Martin, rmiuhrV of
exeeutiye rommittee of the board of
Iru^t'eeg of Mereer University, gave
Mrs. Helen Topping Miller, WeTT
Kiown Mscon author, recently lee-
tured before the . English class of
Mercer. At the sasfe time she read
one of her rtorioa.’' entitled "B Flat
Barto,” wWth was accepted by the
Saturday'Evening Post. The class- s'udeshr a very inti-resting and
room was filled-to its capacity dur
ing the reading and much interest
manifested by the students.
Mrs' Miller gave valuable and in
teresting information to young writ,
ers. She said the art of good story
telling consisted mainly in hard
work, study - and patience. She il
lustrated by saying that whenever
America needs an expert to put fine
edges on tools shy has to send to Eu
rope to secure the best skill.
“We Americans are too impatient”
she declared. “We do not spend
enough time in preparation for life’s
work. Why, in Europe a man will
study one subject from ten to twen
ty years. This principle applies to
writing. You . must work, work,
work, if you would excel Be accu
rate. No matter what the subject
or circumstances about-which your
are writing, make your knowledge
definite. This does not mean one
must necessarily know everything
about the subject, yet it does mean
that whatever statement is made
should be truie."
Commenting on her story she told
how that she had once worked for a
northern cutlery . concern- and
this way came to know and under
stand her character. She chose win
ter for the time of the story because
she intended to make an appeal to
the* reader’s sympathy .for the poqr
people who came from foreigp tan4s
to seek homes in America. It. wf*
a case of discontent among employ
ees who were working under ad
verse conditions and inadequate, pay.
The story found a solution to . the
problem by affording a plan whereby,
the workers could eventually own
thir own boms.
Mrs- Miller, who_ is the wife of
the secretary, of the Macon chamber
of commerce, resides in the city.

PRESIDENT OVERSEAS
CLUB IN HOSPITAL
The recent illness of O. E Brew
er has thrown a gloom over the en
tire campus. He was gassed while
in France and last year had a case
of flu which was followed by plue-
racy. A few days he was taken to
the hospital and an operation was
necessary. At the present writing
he is doing as well as could be ex
pected from the nature of the case.
Counting the time he has been on
the campus,-, Brewer. is one of the
oldest men at Mereer, and is presi
dent of the overseas club. He eame
from Norman Park in the fail of
1915 and entered the sophmore
class. At the beginning of the war
he was a member of the ifin^T
class and was the first Mercer gUIB
to give up his school work and g#
into the service- . A training trip
to the border.where he became ac
quainted with a good part of Texas,
fitted him for overseas services.
He was in several of the battles
and after the battle of St. Mfhiel-he
had to -leave the company on ac
count of gas and' exposure and- go
to the hospital. After his return
he came back to finish his educa
tion. Last year he lost almost the
entire years work on account of
illness and he will be greatly hin
dered this time by his sickness.

He pointed out in olden times
there were places of refuge- hut now
it is the business of the law to- pun
ish wrong doers and not that of the
mob,’■’ he said.
“If is our business to teach and
how- the immigrants that this coun
try is a land of liberty/’ said Mr.
Martin. “Are we going to remedy
some of the evils now existing f” He
declared that the lawyers were the
ones to do this, stating that most of
the writers of the Constitution -were
lawyers, that of our great men
of the Cabinet and also ex President
Wilson were lawyers.
“Law in sometimes referred to
the “Perfection of the human reas
