GOVERNOR LAUDS MONUMENT BODY Walker of Cgorgia Says Executive Committee En- joys Confidence of People. By the Associated Press. ATLANTA, G4 March 14—A state- ment from Gov. ifford Walker in which he said the members of the executive committee of the Stone Mountain Confederate Monumental Association enjoy the confidence of “the best people of Georgia” was made public at the offices of the as- soclation today. S. G. McLendon, Secretary of State of Georgla, said today that he had written Gov. A. W. McLean several days ago suggesting that the North Carolina_ Governor undertake the work of nationalizing the Stone Mountain Memorial movement. To this letter he has received no reply ke sald. Backed by Governor. “Having intervened in the matter of differences between Gutzon Berg- lum, the sculptor, and the executive committee of the Stone Mountain Me- morjal Association, to the extent of suggesting that there could be no profit in forcing the -return of Mr. Borglum to the State to be tried for his alleged misconduct, and the mem- bers of the executive committee of the Stone Mountain Association hav- ing graciously followed my sugges- tion in the spirit in which it was made, it now appearing that certain eritlcisms have been made of this executive committee. I feel it my duty to say to the friends of the memorial outside of Georgla, who do not know personally the members of this committee, that they represent the very flower of the chivalry of the South,” sald Gov. Walker's statement. “Each one of them is a gentleman of the highest character and strict- est integrity, having the esteem and the confidence of the people of the State,” the statement continued. “In- deed, they were selected as repre- sentative of the best character and thought in the State, and they are worthy of every confidence. The best people of Georgia have the utmost confidence in the Integrity and pa- triotism of the members of the execu- tive committee.” —_— MACNIDER WEDDING OUT.

VETERAN OF OLD CELEBRATES HIS 90th BIRTHDAY Patrick McEneany Hale and Hearty Despite Adventurous Life. Exploits of Frontier Days Rival Thrilling Tales of Fiction. Patrick McEneany. of 1360 Otis place, a veteran of both the Indian and Civil wars and an employe of the Surgeon General's Office of the War Department until a Mttle more than two years ago, is today cele- brating his 90th birthday, hale and hearty. Mr. McEneany had a thrilling record in the Army and his whole early life story is one of adventure. He was born In Ireland, March 15, 1835, and, coming to tals country in 1853, enlisted in the Army in Septem- ber, 1854, as a member of Company E. 2d Regiment of United States Dra- goons. Battles With Indians. Soon after he enlisted his troop was transferred to the then unde- veloped northwest and while in that frontier territory he encountered ex- periences that rival fiction of today. He had many encounters with Indians and bands of outlaws and was in a battle for an entire day with the Sioux Indians, at Ash Hollow, Nebr., in 1855. Also he had the harrowlng experi- lence of being marooned., with 300 men on an island in the Missouri River from November to April, during a great part of the time living on a corn ration when no other food sup- plies were available. He was one of a detachment sent down the river to guard a steamer that had been frozen in the ice. Mr. McEneany was honorably dis- charged from the Army at Fort Laramie, Nebr, November, 1859, and for & while rode the old pony express in Nebraska. He re-enlisted as a private in Com pany K, 2d Regiment of United Stat Dragoons, in the latter part of No- vember. 1860, and later took part in What TomorrowMeans to You BY MARY BLAKE. Pisces. You will undoubtedly experience, during the early part of tomorrow a feeling of lassitude, and a some- what indifferent attitude toward mat- ters that have hitherto seemed to be both significant and important. This atmosphere, very clearly indicated by planetary aspects, Is only transient, and does not signify any permanent loss of interest in things that concern vou. Assiduous attention to just your customary dutles, in face of the sub- consclous urge to the contrary, will bridge over this unsatisfying period and enable you to take full advantage of the stimulating vibrations that develop afternoen, which very defi- nitely presage, not only a contented frame of mind, but success for all efforts of a constructive nature Ordinary care and non-relenting vigilance will enable the child born tomorrow to attain physical normale There {s more danger to be appre- hend from acident than from iliness Good environment and wholesome as- soclations will do more than an thing else satisfactorily to develop its disposition and character. This child will not be amenable to any strong discipline—it will have to be shown the right way by precept, and above all, by examp! It will be more than ordinarily Imitative and will very quickly respond to love and affection. of which it will always be willing to give more than it receives. Kindness will do with this child what force could never accomplish. Not much of a very favorable char- acter, in a materlal sense, can be told those who celebrate their birth- day tomorrow. It is hardly necessary to remind them that, in a worldly sense, they have not made of their lives the successes they were entitied by every just consideration to antlei- pate. Too many of them have en- deavored, by ill-considered specula- tion and the taking of chances, in- stead of by the well tried route of hard work, thrift and perseverance to attain their goal. They have, in {nnumerable instances, conceived bril- Mant schemes and had e t op- portunities, which, If assiduously and perserveringly developed, would have secured results. They have, in just as many instances, discarded the hard, but surs, method of accomplishment, and tried to “win out” by a short route, and failure has ensued. While, in the pursuit of gain, they have failed to display those sterling characteristics and rugged virtues that earn a just reward, they are happy In thelr family and soclal re- lationships, eince affection and love are more often thg results of impulses than the prizes of any long sustained efforts. Weil known persons born on this date are: Samuel A. Green, physician, soldier and author; Charles B. Lore, former Chief Justice of Delaware: Andrew S. Hallidle, engineer, inventor | of the cable road; Ethelbert War-! fleld, educator; Lillan Blauvelt, singer; Elsie Janls, actress.

MADRID, March 14.—Replacement of the military directorate by a new government is far off, in the general opinion of the Spanish newspapers, which at present are engaged In a kind of political warfare, discussing the merits of their respective par- ties. The best chance of succeeding to power, in the event of a change, is conceded to the Conservative party, the greater part of which seceded from the leadership of former Pre- mier Jose Sanchez Gurerra and now is headed by the Count de Bugallal. This party includes a number of for- mer cabinet ministers, governors and other experienced political figures. Contented to “Sit StIL” The papers say the union patrio- tica has apparently been abandoned by the directorate, which seems con- tent for the present to sit still and await developments. The union originally was formed by Gen. Primo de Rivera, head of the directorate, with the avowed object of its even-{ tually taking over the task of gov- ernment. The Liberals are rallying around Count Romanones, who, however, is handicapped in the eves of the Span- ish public by the apparent faflures of former Liberal governments. Parties Disappear. The workmen's parties have dis- appeared, with the possible exception of & shattered Socialist party, and the leaders of this group seem little in- clined to fight the directorate, which has made many prominent Socialist officeholders. Lastly, come the Intellectuals, but thelr chances are regarded as slim because of the utopian nature of their platform. They are headed by Maeztu and Ortega ¥ Gasset.

MARCH 15, ROUTE TO SYRIA BRINGS REAL ‘GATE TO PALESTINE’ Frontier Control Station Erected to Handle Travelers’ Pass- ports and Visas. JERUSALEM, March 14 (Jewish Telegraphic Agency).—The much used metaphors, “the gate to Pales- tine” and “the keys to Palestine,” are in danger of losing their symbollc meaning, as the public works depart- ment has just bullt a real gate to Palestine, consisting of iron and con- crete. On a picturesque rock, which di- visas has been erected. Travelers to control station for passports and visas has been erected. Travellers to and from Palestine must pass the nar- row road and present themselves to the ofticers there. Nobody is able to leave the country for Syria without passing the control stailon, to bulld which was a great achievement be- cause of the difficulties which had to be overcome at such a place and alti- tude. Real iron gates on both sides, with locks and keys and bearing the in- scription “in” and “out” were erected. The station is marked with the word “Palestine” in three official languages, English, Hebrew and Arabic. Scotland Claims First Men. It is generally supposed that Eng- lish civilization dates from the time the Romans overran the British island, but there are traces in Scot- land of a civilization that may be 4.000 or 5,000 years old. Only re- cently there was discovered on Castle Rock, at Edinburgh, a complete map of the heavens as they were known in the days of the Pharaohs. An- other evidence is the Caledonian “dyke,” a great defensive work, with forts along it at regular intervals. .

Leeson, a Brit- ish evolutionist, recertly. BUSINESS CARDS 1,000—32 During March, 1925, we will print you 2,000 Queen Quality Business Cards for - $4.00. | Single 1,000's, $2.50. Ord.
