HOW 1T ALL STARTED.

When Adam met Eve he was bashful
and sly,
And he stammered and blushed every
time she came nigh,
Till at last he grew bold and began
to pay court

faithful report.
And he murmured to her on an eve

You're the prettiest girl ever have

And that's how that started.
When Eve, with a beautiful flush on
her face,
Yielded shyly and sweetly to Adams
embrace,
And put up her red lips for the true
lovers pact
tYou may set all this down as an alb
soiute fact).
She inquired, while he breathed the
fond names on his list
Have you said that to all of the girls
you have kissed!
And that's how that started.
When Adam asked Eve if she would
be his bride,
She looked up and looked down, and
she sighed and she sighed,
And she let him take hold of heI

(ThIs is history now, as you mus

Then she said. in a voice that was

And that's how that started.
When they had been married a few
years or so.
Then Adam told Eve-"We're invited

DEMOCRATIC JUDGES.
Georgia Supreme Court Decides
Aoainst Wearing Judicial Gowns.

Aqainst Wearing Judicial Gowns.
II is due to no antipathy or preju-
dice on the past of the justices OF the
state supreme court, but rather TO
their timidity, that they have not
adopted the suggestion of the Georgia
Bar Association in the matter OF
downing the gown appropriate TO their
position and station.
None of the Justices Is ayerse 10
il per Sc: most of them think II
would be decidedly the proper thing.
But" as enc of them put it. "Geor-
gia is too Democratic n state, ana
this too Democratic day and time

Personally / think il would be
good thing. People as rule like a

most religious, but the most observant
and respectful.
Upon this theory We may we'll
Justify the wearing of the gown on
the bench, but to the people of to-

racy seems to have eliminated.

the majority OF the members of the
court.
1t explains why the opurt has never
seriously or formally considered the
suggetion of the Georgia Bar Associa-
ton, made at its annual meeting last
summer.
The real trouble about il is, there
fore apparent The justices of the
Georgia supreme court are timid:
' they hesitate to take step which
possibly might ruffle the preconceived
notions of any considerable number
OF the people.

such action.
! The supreme court comes into con
tact with the people only through

bers Of the bar want. IL would seen
