George K. Cherrie. curator of birds
in the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and
Sciences, gives what should be con-
sidered a conclusive refutation to the
assertion of milliners and some others
that "egrets' plumes are now gathered

being killed; they may be worn by the

Cherrie, after visit to the egret coun-

where they live until their provisions

The excitement over toe at

other important questions to be
relegated to the rear The munic-

cratic party, which is all the party
they have in Frog Pond, has so
far been unable to find a candi-
date who is willing te fill the ex-
ecutive chair and undertake to
steer the municipal ship while
such a storm is raging. The pres
ent Mayor and Board Of Alder
men resigned the first time the
Woman's Club was even mention
ed, but they YER prevailed upon
at a public meeting of the citizens
to finish out the term. Heretofore
at every election, there had been a
large number of disappointed can
didates, but it is doubtful now if
they have any town govern
ment at all until after the
Woman's Club goes out of
business. At a public meeting
last night in an old house on the
outskirts of the town a young
lawyer made a powerful speech
in which he cited the trouble
which the Woman's Club caused
here in Goldsboro and gave the
Rambler credit for quelling the
street inspection annex A vote
was taken on the subject and it was
unanimously decided to send after

sideration, and if we can find a
who is willing to risk his
life in our chair until we get
back we are of the opinion that
we will go.
Vain is the hope, by any force or
skill,
To stem the current of a woman's
will;
For if she will, she will, you may
depend ont,
And if she won't, she won't, and
there's and end ont.
In the cloister Of her soul, at
the confessional of her heart,
every woman tells herself truth.
The polished falsehoods of the
drawing room, the boudoir, the
shadowy places loved of lovers,
cannot be spoken when m is
coming the roll of her secret
thoughts. For herself she has
builded an altar, and to it she
comes in tender hours. with her
cherished griefs and her dear de-
lights. She would give up Meth
er, though the world demanded.

A CANNING FACTORY.

The benefits accrulng from a canning
factory have frequently been referred to
by this paper. We believe that in an
agricultural community no enterprise
offers such advantages. In a city like
Boulder, women and children could re.
ceive re1nunerative employment in
season that IS not full OF opportunities
for employment. Between the close of
our school year and the opening OF an.
other, there is gap which taxes heavily
the ability of pater families to fill. What
shall the children do? Could they be
employed in the healthful labor of har.
vesting vegetables. the labor would be
the young mans and young woman's
best preparation tor the school work OF
another year and would relieve the head
of the family from many burdens. Much
of the prosperity OF our sister little city
of Longmont is due to the successful
canning enterprise there and there can
be no reason why such an enterprise
should not thrive here. Between this
period and next spring, our business and
professional men can devote their en-.
ergies to no purpose so fruitful of results
as that of encouraging or promoting an
enterprise of that kind near this place.
We have the soil and the willing hands.
All we require is jack pot of energy.
confidence, determination. Let US all
chip IN.
