"Out of the chill and the shadow

Out OF the dearth and the famine
Into the fullneSs divine.
Up from the strife and the battle
&Oft with the shameful defeat)
UP to the palm and the laurel
On, but the rest will be sweet!
There we will learn the sweet meanings
Hidden today from our eyes. -
There we shall waken like children
Joyous at gift and surprise,
Come then. dear Lord, in the gloaming,
Or when the dawning is gray; "
Take us to dwell in thy presence
Only thyself lead the way.
Out of the chill and the shadow
Into the thrill and the shine!
Out of the dearth and the famine
Into the fullneSS divine.
Out of the sigh and the silence
into the deep-swelling song!
Out OF the exile and bondage
Into the home-gathered thrOng."

The CentrnI's President.

! We feel sure that the election of Mr..
II. NJ. Conner to the presidency of the
Central of Georgia railway gives general
satisfaction throughout the section of
country tributary to the road. 1t was ex-
pocted that he would be made president OF
tho reorganized railway and. therefore.
the announcemen yesterday morning
caused no surprise. There had been some
rumors that the owners Of the reorganized
property might treat the public to a sur
prise in the choice of president but
they were not regarded as coming from
any authoritative source, and, hence,
made no impression. The owners of the
stock of the new company were so well
satisfied with the management of the
property by Mr.. Conner. while he was
receiver. that they never wavered in their
purpose to offer him the presidency when
the time for filing that Office came
And a better choice could not have been
made both for the security holders and for
Georgia and Savannah. During the re-
ownership there was never a suggestion
that the road was not being managed for
the best interest of all concerned in it's
welfare. At the end of the receivership
it was in better physical condition than
ever before in it's history, and the junior
security holders, mainly through Mr..
Corners efforts. were better provided for
than it was generally thought they would
be.
There are reasons for believing that it
is Mr.. Corners purpose to devote his best
energies to building up the business of
the road so that it will pay the interest
on its income bonds, very large amount
of which is held in Georgia. In doing
this he will encourage the building up of
the country tributary TO the Centrars sys-
tenn of roads. If the times continue TO i'm
prove and there is a succession of good
crops he will accomplish his purpose, in
all probability within a very few years.
The new company is not yet fully or
gained. The present board of directors
viii be changed very soon. In the mean
time President Conner will have the sole
direction practically of the Centrars af-

He Was HIS own pictionnrx.

A good story comes from Meeker coun-

known country school, says the Minnea-
polls Tribune. When it came time last
summer to hire teacher, the local board
discovered that there We're two applicants
both young men. AS to salary there was
no difference between their bids, but the
second one insisted that, if he were en-
ployed. the board should provide a die
tionary for the school room. The first
one made no such demand, and said that
he would be able to get along without a
dictionary AS he expressed it, it was use
full only in the matter of defining words
and giving their pronunciation Num-
Der one got the school, Last week the
board made it's first visit to the building
Everything went well for the first fifteen
minutes, but finally red-headed, freck-
led faced youth in the rear of the room
held up his right hand and snapped his
fingers in a very energetic manner.
What is it, Charlie?" asked the
teacher.
Il want to know how to pronounce a,
word" said Charlie.
Spell it," replied the teacher.
Charlie in a loud voice, spelled out the
word vocabulary"
''Vo-ca-bull -ary,'' responded the teach
er, placing the accent on the bull" and
he added, as to its meaning: 'Appertain-
ing to a horned cattle"
The board cut short its visit and is now
looking for a new teacher and getting
ready to buy an unabridged dictionary.
