CBy Barbara Boyd

The honeymoon is over. Angelina
and Algernon have settled down III
their new home. Their new life has
slipped into an orderly routine. Every
thing seems as it should be, when Als-
ernon, not perhaps without some in
ward quakings, announces a. break
fast that he has an engagement for the
evening and will not be home until
late.
How shall Angelina receive this
news
Shall she pretend an Indifference IS
to what the engagement may be, or
shall she ask point blank what it is
Shall she fee hurt that he wants 10
spend an evening away from her, aud
shall she bid him good-by mournfully
! perhaps weep little that he is tired
of his home so soon? Or shall she
take it as a matter of course that H.
may want to spend an evening occas-
ionally away from home, and be glad
that he is going to have a good time:
Just what is the best course for Angel
ina to pursue?
To be sure, the bride is not altogeth-
/ er responsible for the way this problem
may work out Much depends alsc
upon the husband. But the wife can
by her attitude toward the problem
completely wreck all happy solution Of
it. And so she should give it a little
quiet, serious thought.
1t is problem that needs to be
looked at in big way, not just from q
little personal viewpoint 1t is to be
presumed that the man before he mar
ried lived an honorable, clean life
life perhaps of many interests. Be.
cause he has married he will be no less
clean and honorable He will prob.
ably be more so. Nor will he wish e
cut himself off from all his old associ
ates and interests. Marriage has no
replaced these; it has only added more
A wife should not be suspicious Of
jealous of these old interests. Sht
should appreciate his feeling toward!
them She should enjoy his enjoymen
in them The thing for her to do is t
make herself and the home more t.
him than those previous association
are, so that they will fall to a second
airy place But she should not try for
chilly to cut them off altogether.

THE PROBLEM THAT
CONFRONTS BRIDES

| Marriage should not mean a restric
lion that chafes. AS soon as man feels
his liberty being interfered with that
liberty grows more than ever precious
r to him When he feels a string tied
to him to prevent him from going out,
then he wants to go as he never did
before. So that as soon as the wife be-
gins to complain about her husband 5
going out, or to find fault with him for
it, or to insinuate that he is forming
bad habits, she is whe,ting his appetite
to go.
She should look on marriage in
! bigger way than this. The home
should be the happiest place on earth,
and love the joy and light of it. And
with this home and love as the inspir-
alton Of bosh their lives, there should
be perfect freedom for both. The hus-
band should be free to come and go as
he pleases. There should be no suspic-
ion, no jealousy. With home and love
first in his heart, all other things will
take their proper places. But there
are other things besides the four walls
of a home to a man. And the wise
wife will have a big enough vision 70
see this and sense enough not to mis-
interpret it
She, too, should have her outside N
terests, and then she will not take this
narrow view of life after marriage
They both should live the larger life
They both should recognize their re-
sponsibilities as members of the COM
munity. They should not smut them
selves within the four walls of a
home and shut the world out, wholly.
This may be their dream of bliss at
first But not many men will stand it
1t pals And no woman should. They
both owe certain things to the world
They should take upon themselves Ger
tain responsibilities. And they should
at the start place their home in its
fright relation to the community about
them, and themselves in right rela-
Ition to other people and other inter
ests. Then there will be no little heart
/; aches, no misunderstanding no false
excuses, when the husband goes off for
, an evening on some affair of his own,
} or the wife attends some meeting or
; social gathering in which he has 10
e interest. There should be perfect uY-
Outstanding and perfect confidence
but also perfect liberty.

LIBRARY HAS ENJOYED
MOST PROSPEROUS YEAR
Faithful Librarian and ASSiS-
tant Salaries Increased

The annual meeting of the Carnegie
Library Association held Tuesday al
ternoon brought up for settlement mat
ters of interest to the Library and its
patrons. All of the old officers and
members of the Board of Directors
were reelected.
Reports of the president of the
Board of Directors, the Librarian and
the Treasurer were cad and adopted
The affairs of the library
during the past year have prospere1
in gratifying manner,
The following report of President
Crawford Whea,ley is OF especial in
terest:
Americas, Ga, May 9th, 1911.
To the Members of the Carnegie
Library Association.
Conn lying with the regular duties
Of President of your Association, /
herewith submit my annual report:
1t is with pardonable pride that your
president is able to state to you that
the progress of your Library, during
the past year, has been in the right
direction, and that your Association
/ finds itself at the end of its second
year as a Carnegie Library, both fin
ancially and physically, in a much bet
ter condition than it was one year ago.
Your president is pleased to state
that the appropriation at present re-
ceiyed from the City is $4,000 per
month instead Of $500 per month as
previously received. This increase has
only been available since January list.
Of the current year, bur its benefit is
already being felt in the management
of affairs Of your Association. The
amount received from other sources
has been 1861 .6S, which is also in eX-
cess of the amount ever received be-
fore
Your building is in need of some
minor repairs; but these can be done
at a small expense, and therefore
should receive immediate attention.
From the report of your Treasurer,
which is hereto appended, you will
note that your outstanding indebted
mess has been reduced from 81 ,0S0 to
$4,000, and that your balance in bank
| is $11413. Your total expenditures
have been $1,6616S, which is still
Isomewha. below the amount required
| by Mr.. Carnegie. In this connection,
/ however. / desire to say that he sal
aries paid to our Librarian and her
assistant are far below those usually
paid 70 this class of services; and
when this is taken into consideration
together with the stock of books aud
periodicals originally owned by our
old Americas Library, we are no doubt
living up to these requirements.
From the report Of your Librarian
also hereto appended, you will note
that The membership in year Library
has increased from 925 TO 1,1S9; and
while The number of volumes cwned by
you has increased from 1,737 to 2,30S,
your circulation has decreased from
1866 to 1889. This decrease in cir
culation, in the opinion Of your presi-
dent, is largely due to the fact that
most Of the books purchased during
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1911-05-11

the year has been for the reference de-
.partment instead of current fiction de-
.manded by the reading public, which
opinion is born out by the fact that
during the past year your reference
department was enjoyed by 4,S47 read
ers, while only 1924 used this depart
ment during our first year.
1t is also with great pleasure to
your president that he is able to re-
port such a large attendance of chill
dren at the weekly Story Hour. Since
November last, 1,497 children have
visited your Library to listen to stories
told by your Librarian and her assist
ants in this work. There is no DOUBT
that mos of these children will in
after years become earnest workers
for the good OF your Library, and TINS
perpetuate the benefits to the com
munity now being carried on by your
Association.

who yet are anything but successful.
And this is because much of their
wealth is made by constant violation
of law and by unrighteous attitude
towards their business competitors.
A man is nothing but failure who
makes his money by the sacrifice OF
conscience and Of business honor.
Nor is that man to be considered
successful who constantly absorbs
money and gives nothing out. To
live for ones self and ignore the
reasonable claims Of others may re-
sultin added wealth, but he who SO
lives misses the best part of life and
therefore that life is q failure.
The first essential of all success In
life is character, and without 1t no
amount of money can avail. This is
a fact that should be impressed upon
all who are in training for business
life. Not only is it true that hon
esty is the best policy" but it Is the
only high principle on which to con-
duct business.

As to Infantile PARALYSIS.

The interview of DR.. Fiexner, OF
the Rockefeller Institute, about IN
fantile paralysis, reprinted in The
Times and Democrat today from the
New York Times, should have the
attention of the people of South Car
olina. Last summer twenty or more
cases of the disease appeared IN
Charleston and there have been 9TH
er cases in many other parts of the
State in the last two years. The
State says:
''The disease is one Of q peculiarly
distressing nature. Though the NOR
tality Is not especially great, it fire.
quently leaves its victims hopeless
cripples and heretofore the medical
profession has been practically help
less in dealing with it. TO cure has
yet been found for 1t but DIR. FleXner'
said to be the leading authority III
the world on the disease, announces
that it's germ has been discovered
and he holds out a prospect OF the
discovery of a remedy. At present
the physicians and the people must
be content, for the most part, to take
measures to prevent infection and
the spread of the disease and what
these measures should be are de-
scribed in DR.. .Flexner's Interview.
"No one can tell whether or not
the disease will be serious menace
in South Carolina in the coming or in
another summer. In scne parts OF
the country it's ravages have been
dreadful. Intelligent men and Wo-
men as we'll as physicians should In
form themselves in general way
about it and Dir. Flexner's interview
offers that opportunity"

Going for Bailey.

"The best and most selfish act OF
his life" is the way the n. Y. Jour-
nal characterized the resignation OF
Bailey from the senate in an editorial
written on the subject. But before
the editorial could be printed Bailey
had withdrawn his resignation. But
with a word Of explanation the Jour
nal printed the editorial anyway
1t was too good chance to say few
things about the Texas senator and
the Journal went on 10 say them.
Says the Journal of Bailey:
Bailey of Texas, Bailey of the
Senate, Bailey of No. 26 Broadway
where the Standard OH has its Of
fices-Bailey of the sarchbold let
ters, says he is going to resign from
the Senate.
"If he tells the truth, he an
nounces the best and most useful act
of his life.
"His closing efforts in the Senate
we'll became his general reputation
and the average Of his record.
"He spent hours defending with
his borid, vulgar, half-educateu
spouting a man who went to the
Senate on votes bought with bribe
money.
"Bailey, in this long drawn out
swan song in favor of the bribe-seat-
ed Senator, spoke with great con-
tempt of "a little corruption, as wnc
should say, What, after all, is a
little corruption among United States
Senators?'
"Bailey held. and the Senate Itself
held by very narrow margin, that
the Senate of the United States is the
most appropriate abiding place for a
man of the bribe-givi"g type"
The times and democrat. [volume] (Orangeburg, S.C.) 1881-current, 1911-03-18
Sizing Up Bailey.

The News and Courier sizes up
Bailey lust about right, according TO
our notion. The News and Courier
saws "some correspondent, for reas-
ons of his own, one day sent gut from
Washington the statement that BAL
lev was an intellectual giant with
more knowledge and more brains
than any other man in the Senate.
Forthwith the country took the truth
of the assertion for granted. and It
,s the fashion nowadays to speak or
the Texan with ,bated breath, as If he
were indeed a mental Hercules, able
and willing to destroy all adVer-
saries."
The News and Courier 1s some
what incredulous, and is not dis
posed to accept ell that is said about
Bailey as law and gospel.
"As a, matter OF fact, what has
Senator Bailey ever done to earn
such a reputation? In the great de-
bates on the tariff summer before
last. was his voice ever strong III
opposition to the monstrous measure
finally enacted? Was it he or DOLL
YER who shattered the arguments OF
Senator Aldrich? What statesman
like policy is associated with Bailey's
name? Where has his resistaess logic
nut that of Root to shame. or was
Mr. Knox, when Senator, a pigmy
hes;de him?" asks The News and
Courier.
That is pretty heavy on Bailey
but The News and Courier keeps on
hitting him, and finally knocks him
completely out and leaves him. 1t
asks: "Has not his vaunted intel
lectuality, in fact, been nothing
more than opposition to the policies
of his party? PERHAPS his skill IN
beclouding Democratic doctrine has
been mistaken for perspicacity OF a
high order. Does his intellectually
outshine that of John Sharp Will
liams or Woodrow Wilson? Has ne
not rather, in fact, 'mugWumped'
himself into reputation? There
are many who think he has" Poor
Bailey. He seems to be regarded
as a kind of political Benedict Ar
mold.

What Constitutes Success?

Success is usually estimated By the
size of ones banking account. That
is but a coarse and 'lercen; y way
of judging. 1t leaves out Of reckon
ing other considerations, the pos
session or the absence Of which can
alone determine whether man has
or has not made success Of life.
The idle rich who toll not and spin
not, but who squandCr time, money
and health in fast living may. indeed,
be termed wealthy men, but no SEN
sible person would call them success
full. To turn night into day, to spend
large sums of money upon actresses.
to drink and gamble, all this stamps
a man as disreputable, a. disgrace to
society, and a failure, for there car
be no true success without charar-
ter.
But there are wealthy men whose
lives are free from vice and who seem
to be very pattern of prosperity,

The effort to eliminite profanity
from the plays given in many theatres
deserves success. Such language is
not only unnecessary, but is positive
ly offensive to every well bred per-
son. The idea that vulgarity and
profanity add to the strength and
power of a mans utterance is wrong.
There is strength, charm and beau
ty in purity of utterance that can
not be approached by coarse billings
gate or by making a character swear
.'like a trooper of Flanders"

Many features Of some Of the con-
stitutions of the older States are not
adapted for these days, and the ma
chinery of government necessarily
needs readjustment at times because
OF changing social, economic and po-
3itical conditions. Under such cir
crmstances it is a benefit to have the
light which the trying of new meth
DDS naturally affords. The refereu-
DUN, the recall and all the others
should be given a trial.

The lack Of conformity in the con-
stitutions of the states, especially in
those Of the newer states, is not
without its advantages. Perfection
in government is not yet reached,
and with the increasing complexity of
life it is well that experiments be
dried cut that their value may be de-
termined, even If it does make Sem

The question of the low average of
ministers salaries is again to the
front. One way to increase salaries
in many communities is by having
fewer churches. If in place there
are six or eight struggling churches
of the same denomination trying to do
in a weak, unsatisfactory way what
two strong churches could do eff
fectively, the salaries Of preachers
are sure to be close down to the
starving point.

4 professor Of one Of our large
universities recently spoke on the
marriage and divorce problem. In so
doing he asked and answered the
question, What is love?' Possibly
he has had experimental knowledge
of the subject and therefore his an
swer was doubtless satisfactory to
himself and pleasing to his audience.
Still we doubt if it surpassed or even
equalled the old definition that "love
is love-" In that there is a charm
