Cards for the work of the month of October were issued the first part of this week and in ™many imstances it was shown that mie pupils received excelent arks. Last year the Tribune published | at the end of each quarter the names and averages of the first | four pupils in each grade of the public schools. This year not on- ly will thé record of the fifst four pupils be published for the quarters but also at the end of each month, the record for the month of October appearing be- low. The public schools are all crowded, some of the lower «grades having as many as seven- ty-five pupils. In all there are snearly three thousand children en- rolletl, the exact number being 2, 953. Of this number the East Broad has 778, the West Broad Street school 838, Maple Street school 380 and the Cuyler Street school 757. 3 The work of the schools is now going on smoothly, the confusion caused by the transference of pu- pils during the early part of the month having been settled. The number of teachers in the city schools is 56, fifteen at*the East and West Broad ,Street schools each, eleven at the Maple and fifteen at the Cuyler Street school. ‘ ¥, Because of its newness and the fact that it has all the latest con- veniences, theCuyler Street schoo! has been selected as the place to hold. the Normal class of the teachers and since the beginning of this school year the class has been held there instead of at the East Broad Street school where for the last few years it convened.

Growing Winter Oats in the South Mashington, VD. ©., Nov, 4¢h— Every southern farmer should grow enough oats to feed his work stock during at least a por- tion of the year. In addition to furnishing feed grain at Iess than it can be purchased, fallsown oats prevent the washing of the soil by which much fertility is fre- quently lost. There is still time to sow jvinter oats in the Gulf States, though this work should be done at once if good results are to be obtained. According to specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture, oats sown in the Southern States dur- ing October or the first half of November may be expected to produce at least twice the yield of grain obtained from spring seeding: Winter grain may be sown on Jand which produced a crop af cotton, corn or cowpeas the past sugnmer. If this land has not al- réady been plowed, it will be bet- ter to make the surface soil fine and loose with the disk or drag harrow than to delay seeding by plowing now. Better results are obtained from sowing with the drill than from broad cast seed- ing, though if a drill is not avail- able sowing the seed broadcast on well-prepared land usually re- sults in a good stand. If the pre~ ceding crop was well fertilized, 100 to 200 pounds of acid phos- phate will be all, that the oats re- quire this fall, though a little ni- trate of soda will help the fall growth, especially if the soil is not already well supplied with nitrogen from the growing of cowpeas. or some other legume. A top dressing of 50 to 100 pounds of nitrate of soda applied when growth starts in the spring will greatly increase the yield. The variety of winter oats most commonly grown in the South is Red Rustproof, Appler, Lawson, Hundred Bushel, Bancroft, and Cook are selections or strains of Red Rustproof which are said to be particularly valuable in some localities. The Fulghum is a pro- mising new variety which ma- tures a week or ten days earlier than ‘the Red Rustproof, and usu- ally produces as much or more grain.” As the kernels of all these varieties are large, from 234 to 3% bushels should be sown to the acre. The small quanity is suffi- cient if the seed is drilled early on well prepared land, broadcast late in the season. The Winter Turf or Virginia Gray is a very hardy variety which is valuable for pas- ture or hay production, but which does not yield as much grain in the Southern States as the Red- ‘Rustproof. On account of the small size of the kernel only 134 bushels of seed of this variety are required. of the grave of W. R. Fields, the former vice president.

ALL CLASSES OF CITIZENS EXTEND THEIR CON- GRATULATIONS Beautiful Souvenirs Given Away --By Bank—Several Rush For Honor of Being First Deposi- tors—Many Oyt-of-Town Vis- itors at Opening. The opening of the new bank- ing quarters of the Wage Earners Loan and Investment Company at the corner of West Broad and Alice streets on last Monday afternoon was undoubtedly the most notable event of the kind that has ever occurred in'this cty. The bank opened for, business at its new building at 9 o’clock Monday morning and many per- sons were on hand anxious to be the first depositor in the’ new bank. A few minutes before opening time several persons were seen to gather on the steps of the bank, awaiting the opsning ‘of the doors to the public. | The first pergon to reach the cashier’s window was one of the leading Negro business men Mr. ‘T. T. Freeman, whose business is lon Randolph street, followed by ja prominent Negro preacher, next came a representative of The Tribune, and next to him was 2 white tailor on. West Broad street. A steady line of deposi- tors followed these and judging from the looks of things the bank must have had one of its heaviest days. The public welcome of the bank took place from 3 to 8 p. m. open- ing. day. It is estimated that during the hours at least two thousands persons must have visited the bank, extending their congratulations to the officers and the board of directors who acted as ushers to the visitors. Every. portion of the beautiful banking quarters was thrown open to inspection and the local public was given an opportunity of secing the most up-to-daté and elaborate Negro bank in the country. d Among thost who attended the opening were persons in every walk of life and without excep- ‘tion words of highest praise and commendation were spoken of the steady and uniform success that has attended the bank since its establishment in 1900. Several of the leading white business men of the city were among the visitors and they were generous in their compliments concerning the beautiful banking ‘quarters and the excellent show- ing the institution has made. As souvenirs for the occasion the bank gave several useful arti- ‘cles. To adults were given beau- tiful pocket books of heavy leather bodies and ametal opening with an afuminum finish on which ‘was the picture of the new $40,000 building, and also lovely pocket mirrows on the reverse side of which was a picture of the building. Toy pop guns of 2 brilliant red ‘color were given to the children. Among the prominent out-of- town visitors who came to the ity especially to witness ‘the opening of the new bank was the editor of the Americus Chroni- cle, W. M. Mack. Mr. Mack whose duties take him away from home considerably has noted the progress of the race as few can, on account of their limited op- portunities to travél and he jis very loud in his praises of the new bank, saying that it is the finest Negro banking institution in the country and a monument to Ne- | gro grit and business. | The feature which seemed to ‘attract the greatest attention of the visitors was the beautlful di- rector’s room. “The expensive green Wilton rug on the highly polished floor blended beautifully with the soft cream colored walls and when the light, from the elaborate shower chandelier was turned on the room presented a very rich and most artistic ap- pearance. On the north wail js a larve water color oicture The Present War in Europe in Fair Way to Produce Armageddon. (By Rev. J. W. Manns.) The war in Europe is the fulfillment of prophecy. This has been clearly seen by scripture quotations given to support preceding articles. I believe the titanic struggle now in progress is a prelude to the Armegeddon of the Apocalypse. This is well supported by scripture, history and live news-papers. The denomination to which I belong, has been looking for this present condition of affairs for many years. In Isaiah 42:9, the Lord promises to tell us of it before any new thing springs forth. He has always done this in the past and we may expect He will in the future. He sent a special message concerning the flood, yet the people "knew not until the flood came and took them all away." Prophecies concerning the first advent of Christ were abundant, and John came as a special messenger to announce the coming of the Messiah; yet the religious teachers of that day were the foremost in demanding His crucifixion. So while God will fulfill His word, and tell us beforchand of new things, it does not follow that all will take the warning. In Revelation 11:18, we read that just before the coming of Christ the nations will be angry. For a number of years past this has been the state of affairs. They have been straining every pecuniary nerve to prepare for war. There has been an occasional flurry, and then all has settled down again to an even keel. While the war dogs have been tugging at their chains they have hitherto been held in leash by an unseen hand. What has restrained them? While employed as a symbol, the scriptures use wind to represent war, as we learn from such texts as Jer. 49:36 and 37. The events of the first part of the seventh chapter of Revelation will take place just before the coming of Christ, as may be abundantly proved. From the 3rd verse of this chapter we learn that the angels whose duty it is to restrain the spirit of war are commanded to hold the winds until the sealing work is accomplished. In obedience to this command these angels have thus far restrained the nations that God's special sealing message might be carried unhindered. There are many who misinterpret the scriptures and are preaching peace and the coming millennium or reign of righteousness on earth when the nations will learn war no more. But God tells us the exact reverse of this, Joel 3:8 and 10. And in I Thess. 5:1 to 6, the apostle Paul says that when they shall say peace and safety, as many have said, sudden destruction comes: The 11th chapter of Daniel, said there should arise yet three kings in Persia, and then the fourth, who should be richer than they all. These were Cambyses Smerdys, the Darius Hystaspes, and the fourth was Xerxes. Xerxes, the rich king by, draft and hire, mustered an army of over five and one half million men and made war with Grecia. He was unsuccessful in the campaign. Then Alexander, the "mighty king" mentioned in the third verse, stood up, and conquered all the world. But his kingdom was broken by his untimely death at an early age of 32. His kingdom did not descend to his posterity, but was divided among his four ambitious generals,—Cassander, Lysimachus, Seleucas and Ptolomy. Lysimachus soon overcame Cassander, and in turn Seleucas overcame Lysimachus, leaving but two divisions of the kingdom known in the prophesy as the king of the north, Seleucas, and the king of the south, Ptolomy. These territories are now Turkey, king of the north, and Egypt, of the south. Infidel France in its revolutionary days is brought to view in verses 36:39. At the time of the end, which may be shown to refer to 1798, the French under Napoleon made a raid on Egypt. Egypt made such a feeble resistance that the prophecy uses the expression "push at him." But Turkey the "King of the North" came against a whirlwind. Napoleon was driven back and Egypt was put under tribute to Turkey. But tidings out of the east and out of the north soon began to trouble Turkey in the breaking out of the Crimean war. At that time Russia would doubtless have driven the Turk from the European soil but for the interference of the powers of Europe. Ever since the days of Peter the Great, Russia has coveted Constantinople. They have no warm water port, which fact prevents them from becoming a naval power of consequence, Could Russia obtain this coveted prize, a passage would be offered from the Black sea. England has always been foremost in opposing this Russian ambition but now England's objections are withdrawn. It now appears that Turkey will get mixed up in the European tangle, and as might be expected, it will be opposite of Russia. In that event, the way will be paved for Russia to seize Constantinople. Then what? Verse 45 says, "Turkey will move its capitol soon to Jerusalem, between the seas in the glorious holy mountain." There the Turkish empire will come to its end, and the time of trouble such as never was since there was a nation will follow, Daniel 12;1-3, in the midst of which the end of this world will take place. The present war is not the Armageddon of Revelation 16:12-16, but it is in a fair way to produce conditions which will bring Armageddon shortly. Armageddon, or Har-Magedno, just north west of Jerusalem, in the vicinity of which the last battle will be fought, "the valley of Jehoshaphat" of which Joel 3:11 to 13, to which the heathen will be gathered is just outside of Jerusalem. If this European struggle results in driving the Turk from Europe he will soon locate at Jerusalem. That empire will come to its end. And the nations of the whole world will gather there for the last great struggle. Thus will come the end of the world. "Now while pardon's last hour is expiring in heaven. O, haste, sinner haste, leave thy sinful behaviour. The commandments embrace and The commandments embrace and the faith of the Saxiion." Eileen's Awakening "Do you know Alicia, that these flowers possess a certain charm?" "It is said that if while wearing one of the blossoms you should, now accidently, not purposely, and secretly look into a spring of clear water and should behold therein a man's face, you and he shall surely marry." Eileen Cameron cast a look at her lovely sister who was lazily reclining in a hammock, a new novel in her haud. Alicia looked long and searchingly at her younger sister before replying, then noticing the fragile figure, who, though eighteen, wore a dress which displayed a great deal too much of ankles, replied, "Girls who hang their hair down their backs, play with dolls and wear knee frocks should be very careful how they discuss marriage." "Now honest, Eileen, I wonder why Mums allows that Prof. Francis or Phranzs or whatever he is, to go a sky-larking around everywhere with you?" "Huh, retorted Eileen, why shouldn't she allow it, I wonder." "That's just like Lissie Cameron to go and get jealous of someone who has better taste, oh-ah. I mean the professor prefers my society or he hasn't the same care for you that poor foolish Harry has." Eileen now ran hastily into the woods where she sat on a bed of violets with her knees up to her chin and her hands clasped around them. Alicia and Eileen were the only children of Mrs. Cameron, a widow, who lived in the suburbs of a little town called Blythe. Her cottage, known as "Rose Cottage", stood apart from all the others. It was handsomely, yet not luxuriously, furnished; but neatness, cleanliness and the two lovely girls made it the center of society in that town. Alicia was twenty and charming and of a serious nature. All her traits of character were inherited from her father, but Eileen, how shall I describe such a rare loveliness? Her hair the color of a raven her flushing black, or shall I say blue eyes (for one never seemed to know their exact color) seemed to forever have some hidden message in their depth, and her teeth rivalled pearls. She was impetuous and even daring, thoughtless and capricious, and Mrs. Cameron contrasting the two, felt sure that Alicia would be every one's choice while poor Eileen pursued her fancies. Accordingly, Prof. Phanz, who was a botanist, was a welcome visitor at Rose cottage to one, at least. Sitting in the position in which we left her, Eileen did not hear footsteps behind her for she was too deep in thought, nor did she see Prof. Phanz sitting a few feet away from her and regarding her intently, admiration and something even more tender showing Let me send you FREE PERFUME Write today for a testing bottle of.

If not true ditto?" and, continued, she trying hard to lengthen her skirts by pulling them with both hands. "If Phhranz likes me instead of Lissie, what matters if I'm just a missie?" "A-bem," said the professor as he advanced toward the frightened girl and endeavored to look serious. "You here?" she shrieked, "oh, mercy, what shall I do?" "Why, Miss Cameron," said the professor with a decidedly marked emphasis on the Miss, "I just couldn't help watching you, admiring and, yes, just loving you, but I did not intend to play the eavesdropper." "They say that an eavesdropper never hears anything good of himself, but this is an exception." "Now, first," continued he as he backed against a tree, evidently for support, "what's the charm?" "You do look handsome and friendly as you stand there, "fessor" so stand right there till I return, and we'll try it," said Eileen as she ran hastily toward the flower garden. After she had gone Prof. Phranz began to wonder if, after all, this butterfly creature could know how much he really cared for her. "Oh," he mused, "how I love that girl." Thirty minutes passed and still Ellen did not return. The professor shifted his gaze and began to look around for the object of his thoughts. Shortly afterward he left his position by the tree and exclaimed, "I suppose Miss Ellen is trying to play a trick on me but luckily I've an engagement to stay to dinner." So Prof. Phranz hastened toward Rose Cottage, casting many fleeting glances around him. Arriving at the cottage he innocently inquired for Miss Ellen. "I am not at all aware of Ellen's where-a-bouts at present, professor", answered Mrs. Cameron, and", continued she, "the child has such queer notions, she is so absurd, professor, she will never make as good a match as her sister Alice will" "Well, Mrs Cameron," answered the professor, "I think Miss Ellen quite the most charming young woman I've met, and permit me to tell you, madam, that where Miss Ellen is Alice is not concerned, or, in other words, you cannot compare the sisters." Allow me to find Miss Eileen." The professor strode away leaving Mrs. Cameron to gasp in utter amazement. Alice, who had been an unseen witness to this little scene, now came into the room and sank languidly into a chair opposite her mother. "I overheard it all, mother, and it's your own work," said Alice. Before Mrs. Cameron could reply, the door opened and Harry Blandon came into the room. The two ladies greeted him warmly and Mrs. Cameron soon discreetly left the room. When Prof. Phranz left the cottage he was a very much ruffled professor and to look at him one would not have thought him the calm, solemn professor of few months before. "Wherever did whydid she not return?" Through the the little Dryad go?" he mused, "and woods, over and under hedges he went. The briars tore his trousers almost from him, they tore his face, his hands also, yet he walked on. Suddenly he stopped, for in his path, just beyond, was a vision in white, and such a vision, all innocence and grace. "Now," thought the professor, "Where can she be going? I'll just follow and see." On and on went the professor. Never once stopping to think of his appearance of his torn and bleeding flesh. Soon the pursuer was lost to the sight of the pursuer as she descended a hill. The professor now quickened his pace and when he reached the top of the hill this is what he saw. Elleen, a spray of flowers in her belt, resplendent in the clothes of Alicia. She was repeating something to her self, the professor could not understand what, but supposing that it was some way connected with the "charm", he advanced nearer and nearer. Eleen advanced slowly to the side of a spring which bubbled and sparkled musically as it came rippling from the side of the bank and peeping in gave a start of surprise, for whose face should she see smiling up at her from its depth but Prof. Phranz. "Great heavens, how you startled me!" she gasped, at the same time looking down at her long dress and blushing furiously. The professor did not answer for a long time, then selzing both her trembling hands in his he exclaimed, "Eileen the charm worked. I love you, little girl, can I hope for you to return my love?" "No-o not until you have returned mine," she shyly answered. The professor looked long and earnestly at her. "Do you really love an old fogy like me, child?" he asked. "Oh, well," answered Eileen, "just you try me and see." THE BEST PLACE In Savannah FOR MEN'S GOOD SHOES Prices $3.50 up B. H. Levy Bro. & Co. The happy professor now drew the unresisting girl to him and kissed her tenderly, then the two strolled leisurely back to Rose Cottage. "I cannot let Lissie see me thus," said the happy Eileen as she bounded up the back stairs. When the professor entered, he was graciously welcomed by all including Harry Blandow, and he wondered at their high spirits and lively conversation. Alicia laughingly inquired if he found the "sleeping beauty," meaning Elleen, to which he replied that he had. Dinner was then announced and all had taken their places when Elleen with hair on top and wearing Alicia's blue evening gown came tripping into the room and blushing mysteriously. "Eileen, you are simply outrageous", stormed Alicia, "late for dinner, as usual, but", continued she, as she scrutinized her sister more closely, "why this gorgeous array, and why those flowers?" "Since I was informed that girls in short frocks, with their hair hanging, should not discuss marriage, I decided to place myself in the position so that I might be regarded as a woman. Mother, I admit Prof. Phranz has done me the honor to ask me to become his wife, have I your consent?" answered Eileen. "Why, Eileen,Harry has also asked me to be his wife," replied Alicia in open mouthed astonishment. "I congratulate you both", said Mrs. Cameron, as she placed the hand of each blushing daughter into that of her happy lover. By Evelyn B. Hampton.

Among the Masons As the fraternity moves forward and grows stronger it is beset with new conditions and incidents. Perhaps no subject requires greater care than that of extending Masonic relief. The fact that nearly every secret organization of the period has attached to it both sick and death benefits, has led a great many to suppose that Masonry is likewise obligated to care for the indigent and it is therefore very often imposed upon. A great deal of complaint is heard at times because the fraternity does not hire nurses, pay sick benefits, bury the dead for those who are well able to pay these claims themselves. The whole system of Masonic relief is based upon helping those who are unable to help themselves, and whenever any lodge commences to extend relief to those who are able to take care of themselves, it is clearly outside of the province of Masonry and becomes one of merely mercenary consideration. No doubt some men join the fraternity with but one idea, that is pecuniary assistance. Such men embrace the first opportunity to call upon the lodge and if they do not get what they want and all that they want have a good deal to say against the institution. The matter of extending relief is one which requires careful consideration and handling and no lodge should distribute its funds indiscriminately, but should determine before it extends aid whether the applicant is worthy and whether the assistance which he desires is necessary and is rightfully sought. — Illinois Freemason. MAKE THE LODGE MORE ATTRACTIVE There is no sweeter word than home. It is connected with mother and with father, and all precious memories of your young lives center about it. Home, sweet home. The lodge is the temporary home of the Mason. Here we "met upon the level and part upon the square." Here we find the true, warm welcome; here we make and cement friendships which last through life. Ah, it is here, indeed, that we be come brothers to each other, and around the sacred altars we gather as one family. How necessary then, is it that the lodge room should be an attractive place. Adorn it with the portraits of eminent men, and with the symbols of our grand fraternity. You cannot make your lodge room too beautiful. It will not be embellished beyond the appreciation of your visitors. Let it be a comfortable, hospitable, cheery place, sacred and dedicated to the noble purposes for which we are banded together. The lodge room should be pleasantly remembered as well as the home of our boyhood. We have been glad to notice the beautiful lodge rooms, and with what pride the brethron often referred to the zeal of some good brother who had labored assiduously in bringing it to its perfection.—Selected. The Grand Secretary of the United Grand Lodge of England receives a salary of $10,000 a year. Blessed is the example that follows a faithful officer whose efforts have been for the good of the fraternity. He does not cease to be a factor in the good work of Masonry when he surrenders the emblem of authority, but his counsel is eagerly sought. Others will follow in his footsteps and seek to merit the love and confidence of his brethren as he has. Thus will he live in the hearts of his fellow men. Such a man unifies the brotherhood, brings to the surface the very best there is in the lodge and thus renders an incalculable service which shall last for many years. Around such a man the brethren rally and show by their actions that they approve the course of any man whose effort is to destroy discord and create harmony. Our Fraternity brings the king down from his throne and man to man we all meet on the level. The flower of brotherly love is planted in every Mason's heart, and every new-born day stands a witness that the large heart of Masonry beats sincerely in its love of fellowman.—Selected.

Such results must be gratifying, not only to “the avowed Republican hosts now scattered in increasing numbers throughout the country, but to those members of the other par- ties, who way deep down in their souls believe that Republican rule and prosperity are synonymous terms. As predicted by “Uncle Joe” whose recent return to con- gress must bring joy to all, the re- sult of the November elections presages not only a Republican president in 1916 but a Republi- house and senate as well. We ‘trust that “Uncle Joe’s” predic- tion that the next administration will be Republican will come true. And while the Republican party is regaining its former pow- er, it is interesting to note the Progressive party, the party of Ex-president Roosvelt rapidly gliding down the toboggan. Let us all hope that the present signs read, Republican rules from 1916 ‘om fthat the people of savannah are superlatively pleased with the effort of the officers and members of-the board of directors of the Wage Earners Loan and Invest- ment Company in giving to this successful Negro enterprise a home in keeping with its pro- gressiveness, was attested by the large number of representative citizens of both races who visited its handsome new banking rooms on last Moriday, the openning day, and who were a unit in their en- coniums upon the achievement of this well managed Negro financial institution. Without doubt, the success which has attended this superb Negro bank marks not on- ly an epoch in the history of the colored people of Savannah, but establishes as well, what is gener- ally conceded to be the high water mark in co-operative en- deavor on the part of qur people in and about the city of Savannah. To know that our people, both the masses and the classes, are not only deeply appreciative of the past achievement of this great institution of theirs, but are gen- uinely enthusiastic in their pre- sent avoival of continued encour agement and support of it, brings to all of us not only gratification, but inspiration as well. There be no denying the fact that the suc- cess of the Wage Earners Loan and Investment Company has been an educational eye opener to our people. Tt has had a tendency not only to inspire in them con- idence in e>terprises manned and controlled by our own people but it has awakened within them a spirit of venture especially along business lines. The people of the city of Savannah are no doubt proud of the Wage Earners Loan and Investment Company. ‘This is as it should be since it has al- ways been the policy of this in- «stitution from its incipiency to be a leader not only in enterprises of race but in all matters that have for their end the civic im- provement of the city of Savan- nah. The Wage Earners Loan and Investment Company has done a great service in the com- munity. It ought to be congrat- pied, Meanwhile it is hoped t with its sterling record, it Will blaze the way for other stron’ and well established busi- ness entreprises among us. One of the most fruitful fields for the Negro confectionery men of the city is that which the hun- dreds of Negro children af- ford at recess time at the varions schools. Several days ago, one of The Tribune’s representatives visited the Negro schools at play time to see whether or not the Negro men and women in the various lines of business in which are found commodities that hun- gry children like are making a bid for their trade. At each of the three largest schools he found four Greek venders and two Ne- groes and at the other school one Negro and one Greek. School children, as a general thing, have an almost inexhaust- able supply of nickels which they spend for lunch and if the Negro confectionery man is not getting the better part of their patro- nage it is their own fault. There are hundreds, nay, several thous- ands of dollars spent by Negro school children for lunches dur- ing the year and if their patro- nage is properly bid for by mem- bers of the race there is suffici- ent profit in the business done among the children to bring a handsome income to several of them. The time is now ripe for the Negro men in the lunch and confectionery business to take hold of the matter and se- cure the patronage of the thous- ands of Negro boys and girls who buy lunches daily, the most of them from venders who are no more interested in them than to gather in their pengies and nic- kels. The business is wait- ing, all that is necessary is that some energetic confectioners of thg race go for it. Negro Business League Weekly Letter—by J. C.Lindsay’ The Negro business and pro- fessional men and women in this community are proud, yea,’indced, we are more than proud, we are grateful to our people for the loyal way in which they are giving their support to the build- jing up of the many and various businesses and enterprises which are being operated by our people in thi$ immediate vicinity. ! The People Praised | No stronger evidence of our race loyalty could be seen among any people than that exhibited by all, classes of our people on Jast Mon- day, when the Wage Earners new bank, which is the pride, of all the people in this community, threw wide its doors and said to its patrons and friends, “Come in and see a real, modern and up to date bank in every respect.” These people representing every phase of Negro life, were on hand praising and blessing the found- ers and promoters of this pioneer Negro barfking institution ‘and asking the benediction of the Al- mighty upon it and them. This is exactly as it should be. When men of the race,'with brain and money get together and do something worth while, other thoughtful members of the race will appreciate it, as was evi- denced last Monday evening by that throng of loyal men and women of the race who, for an hour, laid aside their business, professions, domestic affairs, and what not, to accept of the cour- tesies which they knew awaited them at the hands of President L. E. Williams, Cashier R. A. Harper and thé intelligent and business-like board ‘of directors, who made it a point to extend to every one who came into the money changing, emporium a hearty and friendly hand shake, and in the mean time, give to them a useful souvenir. . Bowen has Opening In the same building on the ground floor, Mr. G. H. Bowen, the hustling real estate man whose trade mark is “I sell the éarth,” had his grand opening and handed out many attractive, and useful souvenirs to” those with whom he hxs been doing a satisactory business for some time. The Masses Given the Credit These tangible évidences of the material progress which is being made by the men of the race en- gaged in business, are“the results of our business men getting and keeping close to what is known as the “common people”. These people who are dubbed the “common people” stand ready ‘and they are willing tq lend their support and encouragement to any worthy enterprise or move- ment set on foot or put into ope- ration by that man or that set of men who has not so forgotten himself or themselves, as to “despise the day of small things.” “A hint to the Wise is sufficient.” | Negro Industrial Insurance ‘ | There is no class of Business being operated among our people which Gs doing as much-for the masses o our people as the Negro industrial insurance -companies, and yet, there is no business so greaty misunderstood. - Some of the men, when they first started out as agents for some of the companies, impressed the peo- ple in a way, that it was a kind of begging business, while others were known as past grand mas- ters at “wind-jamming,” and rec- ognized in the community, as successful failures. Some of these men had tried at preaching, the game of politics and failed, then it dawned on Mr. “Failure,” that the next business for a genius(?) of his kind to get into would be the Negro industrial insurance field. At an unguarded mo- ment managers of some of our best companies have been de- ceived by the wind-jamming ci some of these failures, and al- lowed, their companie’s pay roll to be disgraced by putting Mr. “Fail- ure’s” name on it. Insurance Companies not “Policy Shops” In this city some years ago, we are told, there was a kind of game winked at by those high up in authority, known as‘the pol- icy shop. Many of our pcople, so we are told, played this game, winning or loosing, as the case might be. Many of the persons who had dreams and visions, as to what the winning number would be for the next day, we arc told, would give out this valuable in- formation for a shave in the spoils of tomorrow. The Two Mixed As you can see at a glance, that it is indeed an easy matter for many of our people to think that when an agent comes around poorly trained and badly informed to write them a policy, that it is not impossible: neither is it im~ probable that their minds go back to the old “policy” days of years ago. The insurance managers have all about decided that many of the frandulent claims that they are forced to pay from time to time, are traceable to the fact that many persons take insurance to supply their needs during hard tmes, rather than afford them protection against loss of time during total disabilities. This error, as you can plainly.see, is the outcropping of the policy” idéa inculcated in the minds of many of the people, while this monstrous evil was in vogue in this community. In other words, “if I don’t beat the policy the poli- cy will beat me.” We, the Negro insurance men of this community, wish to serve notice on that class of people, now, and for all times to come, that we\are not representatives of “policy” concerns, but on the other hand, are doing a straight forward, up-right, legitimate in- dustrial insurance business, mect- | ing all state and municipal re~ quirements, and furnishit®g gain- ‘ul employment for your hus- bands, sons, fathers, sisters and brothers, and: doing exactly what our contract says, regardless to friend of ‘foe. These are some of the princi- ples for which the Negro business League stands, which meets the first Wednesday and third Friday evenings of each month at their headquarters, Wage Earners bank building, 458 West Broad street. Come and bring someone with you. ; _ x Dr. Washington Speaks At Albany Fair Albany, Ga., October 24th- When Doctor Booker ‘tl’. Wash- ington, principal of the ‘Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, visited here iust week to speak ut the opening of the Southwest Georgia Negro Fair Association, he waS invited by the mayor, city council, other important officials, and leading ‘business men, to ad- dress the white people at the city hall. A representatiye audience of white business men, white farm; ers, together with city oflicials, listened with great enthusiasm to the Negroeducator’s address. He nde an upstanding appez] for fair play and'justice to his race, saying, “Here in the South the colored man can buy property in practic- ally every section und on easy term, even if it is true that in ‘some cities it has beén proper to pars laws preventing the Negro from buying property in certain sections, but such laws from my point of view are not only unjust, but useless, because every black manin the South is able to use food common sense in selecting the place where he wilPMve. ~~ * - 4s lintimated in toe beginning, there are two races here in Geor- gia You aregving to live in this state.together.

I wish that the white people throughout the South might possess-the same liveral sentiment toward helping the colored people that I find ex- hibited here in Albany, and in Dougherty County on these fair grounds today. Everywhere it pays the white man to treat the Negro with justice and with con- sideration, * * * * “*T want the white people of this section of Georgia to be more hberal! and thoughtful and that is in helping and improving the Ne- groes educational districts in the country. “Yo be plain, half the Negro children in the state of Georgia euter no school, ‘That is, they are growing up in ignorance. Five hundred thousand of the Ne- groes in Georgia ure engaged in farming for themselves or for somebody else, but the time has come, and nothing proves it more clearly than the conditions brought-about by the present war that we have got to have intelli- gent farmers—those who can di- versify their crops. In slayery, a man could be worked, but in freé- dom a man has got to be taught to work.” Before speaking at the city hall, Doctor Washington had de- livered, the opening address in connection*with an ambitious Né- gro fair which is to be opened for a week, This effort of the Negroes of southwestern Georgia, to establish an agency through which to en- courage the colored farmers of this section was inaugurated by Reverend J. W. Hollf, principal of an institute located at Albany, known as the Albany Bible and Manual Training Schoo), and Doc- tors M. W. Lee and King, promi- nent colored physicians of this city. each of whom, together with the folored cod the white people of this section have worked, most earnestly to‘launch the fair suc- cessfully. A paradealmost a mile long which had been very well planned, took place during the meeting. « CEES BEET UVETEIUETE UU, (Incorporated 1900, under the Laws of Georgia) —— 3 : 3 ° L ° .

"Lucky Sam From Alabam," the three act musical comedy presented by the company, was quite an improvement over any of the plays which the famous singer has been seen in here for many years and was liberaly applauded. Mme Black Pattie was very generously applauded in her three musical pieces. Harrison Steward was the main show and he kept the audience in a continuous uproar of laughter. His wit was pleasing and clean and far supassed that of any other colored cemedian that has been seen here in the last few years. Will Cook as "plenty rags" was fine, sharing honors with Stewart. The dancing of Estella Williams and J. Lackley Grant was graceful and pleasing and they received a good hand from the audience. Cards of Thanks. We wish to extend our appreciation to the friends who extended their sympathy during the illness and death of my husband, Capt. A. H. Grice, of Datien, Ga., who departed this life Oct. 26, 1914, and also for the many floral designs. He is survived by four daughters and one son. Mrs. T. C. M. Grice and family In Memoriam In sad but loving memory of our loving mother and grandmother MRS. ENA C. WASHINGTON who departed this life Nov 7th, 1913. One year ago to-day the golden gates were left ajar to admit the soul of a fond and loving mother. 'Til we see thy heavenly face. She was weary and fell asleep, Through all pains at times she'd smile— A smile of heavenly birth; And when the angels called her home She smiled farewell to earth. Heaven retainin now our treasure, Earth the lovely casket keep, And the sunbeams long to linger, Where our sainted mother sleeps. Children. By Coston Taylor Smith. (grandson ) In sad memory of my departed ones: Mother, ANNIE JONES, Died November 7, 1894 Father, THOMAS B. JONES, Died November 10, 1894 Brother, WALTER H. JONES, Died November 6, 1906 Sister, LEILA JONES DAVIS, Died March 17, 1910 Over the river they beckon to me— Loved ones who've cross'd to the farther side: further side; The gleam of their snowy robes I see, But their voices are drown'd in the rushing tide rushing tide. There's one with ringlets of sunny gold, And eyes, the reflection of heaven's own blue; He cross'd in the twilight, gray and cold. And the pale mist hid him from mortal view. We saw not the angels who met him there. The gates of the city we could not see; Over the river, over the river, My brother stands waiting to welcome me. For none return from those quiet shores. Who cross with the boatman cold and pale; We hear the dip of the golden oars, And catch a gleam of the snowy sail— And lo! they have pass'd from our yearning heart; They cross the stream, and are gone for aye; We may not sunder the veil apart, That hides from our vision the gates of day. We only know that their barks no more May sail with us oe'r life's stormy sea Yet somewhere. I know, on the unseen shore. They watch, and beckon, and wait for me. A devoted daughter and sister, (Mrs.) M. V. Washington, N. Y. City. In memory of SISTER ROSA MAJOR: September 21, 1914. Whereas, the Lord has seen fit to take from our ranks one of our noble and beloved sisters, we feel it is our indispensable duty to say a word of praise in her behalf. As a faithful sister and always at her post of duty, she was one of the faithful few, always ready to lend a helping hand to every needy soul. She showed her Christianity in her every walk of life. Our loss, but heaven's gain. Therefore be it Resolved, that a copy of these resolutions be entered upon our minutes and a copy of the same be sent to the bereaved family who have our heartfelt sympathies. One sweet flower has dropped and faded, Our dear member now is dend, But we feel no thought of sadness, For our friend is happy now. She has knelt in heartfelt gladness, Where the blessed angels bow. She has gone to heaven before us But she turned and waved her hand, Pointing out the glories above us. In the spirit happy land. Yours obedient, Charity Aiding Association Sister Lottie McGee "L.

"The Japanese servant has many curious traits," said the man who keeps one, "besides his constant habit of eating raw fish, but he is inordinately polite, as a rule. For instance, he never will give you notice that he wishes to leave you. Instead his work will grow steadily worse and worse till you can't stand it any longer, and so you fire him. It's always done purposely to avoid the necessity of telling you out right that he is tired of you and wants to quit." Reminded Him. Walter—Haven't you forgotten something, sir?

Self Disgraced. In Boston, as every one knows, the symphony concerts are viewed in the light of sacred ceremonials. In this connection the story is told of two little girls of a certain family who returned from the music hall "in a state of mind." One of them carried an expression of deep scorn, the other an air of great dejection. "What is the matter, girls?" asked some member of the household. "Was the concert fine?" "The concert was all right," responded Eleanor. "The trouble was with Mary. She disgraced herself." "Disgraced herself?" "Yes, she sneezed in the middle of the symphony."—Philadelphia Ledger. Dancing on Talcum Powder. It has been found by experiment that the best dancing floor is made as follows: Upon the ordinary floor a sheet of rubber half an inch thick is spread; a certain smooth surfaced linoleum is laid over this, and talcum powder is sprinkled upon it every day. The highly polished waxed wood floors of a few years ago are too slippery for the modern dances. The sheemakers soon learned this and introduced pumps with pads of rubber inserted in the goies.—New York World. Genius and Insanity. Dr. R. Armstrong-Jones, chief medical officer at Claybury asylum, Woodford, England, in a lecture on the relation of genius to insanity, recently stated that he knew a man who could recite the "Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire" from cover to cover, yet his mind continued to be of the nursery type, and he did not understand what he dramatically recited.

Rural Telephones The telephone is one of the most profitable business agencies that the farmer can employ. It affords him facilities for keeping in constant communication with the markets, provides a sitting room for the community where the families can assemble and discuss the events of the day without the inconvenience of travel or loss of time, and in sickness and emergencies, it renders a divine service. Georgia farmers should encourage the building of telephone lines. Local cooperative companies can be formed and country lines built at small expense. Co-operative Farming In this age of co-operation, in which manufacturing and commercial interest have attained wonderful development and success by merging their resources, it is not to be wondered at the co-operation has slowly but inevitably wended its way into rural life. The old method of individualism is gradually giving way to the co-operative spirit and the result is a greatly reduced cost of living and lessened expense of farming. Georgia farmers are leading the cooperative movement and it is gradually being extended into every feature of community life. Hardeeville, S. C. Dots. (Rev. E. W. Graham, correspondent) On last Wednesday Rev. E. W. Graham visited Tillman, S. C., to assist Rev. S. R. Gathers in his revival at St. John's, A. M. D. Church. The service was largely attended. Rev. Graham preached on Wednesday night, and on Thursday, Rev W. R. A. Feld, pre-iding elder of the Aiken District, came over and preached two excellent sermons. Two professed and joined the church. This is one of the loyal congregations of the church and with such a pastor as Rev. S. R. Gathers the banner of the old church continues to float and unfold itself. Rev. Felder returned to Columbia, and Rev. Graham returned home by way of Ridgeland, S. C., where he made a short stay, reviewing the business section of the town. On Saturday night Mrs. F. B. Crum of Beaufort, S. C., dropped in and spent the night with Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Graham, and left on Sunday for Pineland, S. C., where she will teach.

Randal is still on the sick list. Little Eural Hodges leaves for the city to day. Georgia Farmers Complete Hay Mowing. Washington, D. C. Oct.—Georgia farmers produced 368,000 tons of tame or cultivated hay during 1914, according to the preliminary estimates made today by the United States Department of Agriculture. The yield last year was 350,000 tons. The product is selling for an average of $17.30 per ton, compared with $18.00 per ton in 1913. The yield per acre this season is 1.50 tons and the quality is two per cent better that the average crop for the past ten years. Government Makes Report Washington, D. C., Oct.—The Crop Reporting Board of the United States Department of Agriculture has just completed its estimate of the acre yield of the principal farm crops of Georgia for this year. The estimates are based on crop conditions during the early part of October. The final figures will be given out within a short time. but it is reported that they will not differ to any great extent with the preliminary estimates. According to the figures the yield per acre of the principal crops of this State in 1914 will be as follows: Corn 17 5 bushels; Irish Potatoes 94 bushels; Rice 33 bushels; Sweet Potatoes 105 bushels; Tobacco 900 pounds; Cotton 264 pounds. Farm Facts. (By Peter Radford, Lecturer National Farmers' Union) Help to organize rural life and make the country a better place in which to live. The problem that confronts the farmer next in importance to distribution is diversification. Agriculture has gone through two thousand years of evolution and is still in an experimental stage. Over-production is the stumbling-block, and systematic marketing the stepping-stone of agriculture. It is the duty of every farmer to see that his wife is supplied with every equipment to lighten her labors. To eliminate waste and inefficiency in marketing, the farmer should keep in close touch with market conditions. The problem of marketing is the biggest business proposition of any age or nation and one that will require the combined efforts of all the agencies of civilization to solve. Secretary of Agriculture Discusses the Meat Storage. Chicago, Ill., Oct.—Addressing an audience composed of stock-raisers from practically every state in the Union, at the National Dairy Show convention here recently, Secretary Houston of the United States Department of Agriculture declared the short meat supply to be one of the most serious problems confronting American agriculture. Mr. Houston approved the plan of cattle raising on the large ranches and declared that no effort would be spared by the Federal Government in further increasing production from this source but insisted that the proper solution of this problem depended on an increased interest in livestock raising by farmers and in a more systematic control and eradication of hog cholera, cattle tick and tuberculosis. Figures were quoted from Government reports, showing that the production of meat in meat in the United States during the past 14 years has fallen off 3,000,000,000 pounds and that the population of the nation during this time had increased 22,000,000 American Horses in Battle The American horse is one of the first to answer the bugle call of the European war. Representatives of many foreign governments are in this country purchasing horses for the various armies of the warring nations and practically every state in the Union is contributing cavalry material to the belligerent factions. The American horse is a utility animal and excels that of any other country on the face of the earth. He has plowed our fields, fought our battles and is the most faithful of animal kind. His reputation has extended to other countries and he is now going to perform the services for foreign countries which he has so faithfully fulfilled at home. You should look as well going as coming.

Redd, East Broad St. Only the intimate family and a few friends were present at the ceremony. Mr. Paul is a firstclass waiter in one of the leading hotels of this city. Mr. and Mrs. Paul will reside in the city a short while then they will leave for the South. They will make the North their future home. Smalls-Eyes Miss Selina Smalls and Mr, Joseph Eves were joined in holy matrimony on last Wednesday evening at 8:30 o'clock. The wedding took place at 232 E. Oglethrope Ave.. and was indeed a pretty affair. The ceremony was performed by Rev. J. H. Rogers. Many useful and beautiful presents were given. Jones-Crocker The marriage of Miss Estella Jones to Mr. H. C. Crocker was a very interesting event. It took place Wednesday of last week at 8:30 p.m. at the bride's residence, 514 Huntingdon St. Miss Susie Cogswell was maid of honor and the only attendant, while Mr. Willie Lane acted as best man. The ceremony was performed by Rev. R. H. Singleton. The bride wore a gown of cream color messaline made with a long tunic edged with silver braid and a gladstone color fashioned of beautiful cream lace. Her veil was made cap effect with a wreath of orange blossoms. She carried a bouquet of bridal roses. The maid of honor wore a lovely gown of shadow lace and a wide basque girdle. Deaths. Mrs. Ella Russell Slaughter, wife of Henry P. Slaughter, editor of the Odd Fellows Journal, died unexpectedly at her residence, 2236 Thirteenth Street, northwest, Washington, D. O., Monday morning, November 2, at 11:50 a.m., after an illness of five days' duration. Although she had not been in the best of health for some time, it was not until a week before her death that she became housebound and was placed under the care of a physician. Her ailment was diagnosed as bronchial asthma, attended with a hard cold and a weak heart, death resulting with an acute attack of myocarditis, or inflammation of the heart muscles. Funeral services were conducted by Father Thomas J. Brown at St. Luke's P. E. Church, Wednesday at 5:00 p.m. Interment was in the burial lot of her family homestead, Jonesboro, Tenn. Thursday, November 5th. She was a member of Household of Ruth No. 487, G. U. O. of O. F., at Jonesboro, Tenn. Friends of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Clark of Atlanta, formally of this city, will be grieved to learn of the sad bereavement which befall them last month in the death of their daughter, Mrs. Vincente Valdes, and her three year old son. The death of Mrs. Valdes occurred on the 14th of last month and her infant son died on the 17th of September. Mrs. Valdes will be remembered as Miss Lillian P. Clark who with her parents resided on Drayton street, between Henry and Anderson, prior to the family moving to Atlanta several years ago. Miss Valdes was a young lady of a very pleasing personality and her many friends here will regret to learn of her death and also that of her infant son. Mrs. Valdes who is survived by two children, two brothers and five sisters besides her parents, was sick about seven weeks prior to her death. Friends of Dr. C. B. Tyson will regret to learn of the death of his father which occurred in Waycross this week. Talladega Football Team The football team of Talladega College has nearly the same line-up as last year. The only important change being in halfback where Procter of Mississippi is playing in place of Lawless who graduated last year. The team is also fortunate in having Prof. Edward Evans, of Howard and Columbia, to assist Mr. Johnson in whipping them into shape. The coaches, ably assisted by Dr. Terry and Jones, have succeeded in building a strong aggregation and hopes of a championship are high. One game has already been played against Montgomery State Normal in which Talladega won 19 to 0. The first hard game is to be played Saturday October 31 when the crimson warriors meet the Morehouse eleven in Atlanta, Ga. The following Saturday Nov. 7th, Talledga plays Fisk in Nashville, Tenn., which is also a tight proposition. Later on comes a game with Atlanta University on the 13th and the season closes with a game with Tuskegee in Birmingham on or about Thanksgiving. Flitcher Bryan is manager this year and H. Savage is captian. In the first game of the series among the "big four" Negro schools in the South, namely, Tuskegee, Fisk, Talladega and Morehouse, Morehouse met Talladega on Morehouse's gridiron and completely vanquished her by a score of 19 to 0. Both teams played an excellent game but the strategy of the Morehouse tigers completely excelled the old line bucking of the Talladega boys. Morehouse began to play great ball from the very start, a beautiful pass from Brock to Ely registering Morehouse's first touchdown two minutes after the game began. In the second quarter another successful pass of 45 yards from Weaver to Ely placed Morehouse on Talladega's three yard line and Lewis carried the ball over for the second touchdown for the old maroon. Lewis kicked goal. In the third quarter both teams fought hard but no one scored. The fourth quarter was filled with brilliant work by the Morehouse eleven. The football machine of Archer and J. W. Davis, coaches, made three successful passes for Morehouse in three minutes. James Jones gave a beautiful, exhibition of broken field running by taking the ball 25 yards through Talladega's line for the third touchdown. Chas. Davis, a Savannah boy, made an excellent showing in this game. The crowd was one of the most representative and enthusiastic that has ever witnessed a football game in Atlanta. Morehouse meets Atlanta University on today. The Cuyler Street School --- The week at the school has been unusually interesting in the number of substantial visitors who have registered. They are Dr. Henry M. Collier, Mr. Sol. C. Johnson, Dr. B. W. S. Daniels, Mr. A. L. Tucker, Prof. W. H. Spencer, principal public schools, Columbus, Ga., Mr. E. W. Sherman, Dr. A. R. Ferrebee. Each of the visitors inspected the work of the school and expressed themselves as well pleased with everything. All visitors were greatly interested in the industrial activities of the school. Mr. E. W. Sherman was so much pleased with the industrial work that he was glad to contribute to the sewing room and adjustable dress form, value $1,00. While the school is not on the begging list, yet it gratefully appreciates needed gifts of this kind which enable it to do things in the right way, and which put the departments up-to-date. Superintendent Ashmore is laying stress on sanitation and hygiene, and two brief, pointed talks of five minutes each at devotions were made this week by Dr. B W. S. Daniels on "the care of the body," and by Dr. Alex.-Ferrébee on "care of the teeth." Horrible. "That was an awful disaster. Only one survivor. Isn't that terrible?" "Fearful. What a bore hell be!" The Oldest Bridge In Paris. The Pont Notre Dame is the oldest bridge in Paris. It was first built in 1413 in the reign of Charles VI, but it was carried away, together with the houses which lined it, by ice floes when the frost broke in 1499. A new bridge was begun at once under the direction of Jean Joconde of Verona and was ready for traffic in 1507. On that bridge stood the famous picture shop of Gersaint, which had a signboard specially painted for it by Watteau—Westminster Gazette. A Lame Excuse. "A French sentinel in Algeria," said a playwright. "had for his colonel a very tall, lanky, round shouldered man. This round shouldered colonel one night was making a quiet inspection. Passing the sentinel, he found, to his rage and indignation, that he was not challenged. So he returned to the man and roared: "You didn't challenge me! "N-no, sir," faltered the sentinel, saluting. "Well, why didn't you?" the colonel demanded. "Excuse me, sir," said the sentinel. "but I thought—I beg' your pardon, sir—I thought you was a camel."

Garibaldi was once presented with a medal made of his own blood. The giver was Dr. Manini of Naples, who was well known as a petrifier and preserver of the human body. Dr. Manini in offering the gift to Garibaldi said that whenever the general looked at it it would brace him up for the last fight, and across the medal were engraved the words, "The Blood of Garibaldi Is Forever Red." The strange medal is preserved by the general's descendants. An Unconscious Toast. Lord Clyde one day after dinner asked a chaplain to one of the regiments in India for a toast, who, after considering some time, at length exclaimed with great simplicity: "Alas and alack a day! What can I give?" "Nothing better," replied his lord ship. "Come, gentlemen; we'll give a bumper to the parson's toast, 'A lace and a lac a day.'" A lac means 100,000 rupees, or $25,000, which is certainly an income to make one happy—London Chronicle. Broke It Gently. A miner got killed and a tactful associate was delegated to break the news to the widow. So the tactful fellow called at her house and said: "With your golden hair, blue eyes and pink and white complexion: ma'am, you'd break every heart in town if you wore widow's weeds." The young woman laughed and blushed for pleasure. "Oh, go on," she said. "And you are a widow, too," said the tactful miner quickly, seizing his chance.

Esek Hopkius was the first admiral of the American navy, being appointed in 1775 by the Continental congress commander in chief of the navy. While he at first achieved great success, he was removed in 1777 on the ground of incompetency. He died in 1802 at Providence, R. I., where a monument has been erected to his memory. Proved His Bravery. One evening I was seated upon the crowded roof garden of the Palace hotel in Shanghai, safely within the international settlement, watching the fires which were numerous in the Chinese city and listening to the battle and a dissertation-by an authoritative looking fellow guest in the hotel during which he had just made the statement that he could take the arsenal with a corporal's guard of his fellow nationals when a shell screamed close over our heads and burst in the public garden along the bund.

Carelessness costs many a life. It sacrifices many a fortune and ruins many a promising prospect. A crusade for efficiency may be carried too far, but it is sadly needed. We live in a "skip and jump" age. Somebody tells some one else of "a good thing," and some one else proceeds to buy it because "somebody" did. We ape all kinds of queer fashions—in dress, in modes of living and in everything else—doing it thoughtlessly, carelessly and indifferently. Then we wonder why some succeed and so many fall. Perhaps the "some" are not so careless. Perhaps the "some" do a little more thinking than the others—Jasper in Leslie's. Experience Teaches. At a time when Parnell was deliberately setting himself to paralyze the legislative efficiency of the house of commons, a friend said to him, "Mr. Parnell, how did you acquire your extraordinary knowledge of the rules of the house?"
