ing ability The guards explained
that the melancholy was probably due
to the fact that the competitors had
to leave their husbands at home, as
no cocks are permitted about the
premises. 1t was brutally explained,
however, that most of the hens have
already forgotten their lords and mas
tiers and it was predicted that those
still faithful would become resigned
in a few days.
The first egg that was dropped in
the trap nest at the inaugural of the
competition today was followed by an
exultant cackle that will be heard
round the world, and from now on
poultrymen in every country will
eagerly watch the scores Of the differ
ent breeds entered in the race.
The effects OF the contest are eX-
pected to be far-reaching, in that it
will definitely decide which varieties
of hens are the most fruitful producers
of eggs. 1t has been figured that if
the knowledge obtained through this
competition results in an average in
crease of one egg per hen per year
in the United States alone, there will
be nearly 4O0,OOO,OOO more eggs per
annum in the nations egg-basket.
Arrangements have been made to
give out scores of the different pens
every week. and these records will
be followed by the pOultrymen with as
much enthusiasm and excitement as
the baseball fan manifests in the
standing of the clubs in his fayorite
league.
At the end of the contest, one year
from today, the committee in charge
will Immediately begin the compila-
ton of exhaustive bulletins covering
every phase of the competition. The
information contained in these reports,
it is expected, will be worth millions
of dollars to the poultrymen of all
nations.

bile driver, three times a participant
in the Glidden tours, and who has
won many speed and cross-country
roads contests, notably the one from
alias to Chicago is here for a few
days In the interest of his firm, the

is a good roads enthusiast and says
that the automobile highways OF
America are being revolutionized and
in no other section is that more ap-
parent than in Georgia and parts of
Florida. He suggests that the auto
mobile owners of Hattiesburg get to-
gether and organize a Better Roads
club. combining their membership not
TO the owners alone but soliciting aid
from every man who is interested in
building up a better public roadway
system. The farmer who is the prime
producer of almost everything is the
man who after all benefits more ma
terially. Good roads mean a saving
of time in hauling his products to
town, time that could be put into
advantage raising more stuff, instead
of pricing wagons out of mud-holes

There was a heated controversy as
to the authorship of the poem many
years ago between Ella Wheeler Will
cox and John Joyce. Mrs. WilsoX re-
Gently said that she wrote it,
Laugh. and the world laughs With You:
) Weep, and you weep alone;
For this brave old earth must borrow
it's mirth,
1t has trouble enough of its own.
Sing, and the hills will answer;
Sigh! it is lost on the air;
The echoes bound to joyful sound,
But shrk from voicing care.
Rejoice, and men will seek you;
Grieve, and they turn and go;
They want full measure of all your
pleasure,
But they do not want your woe
Be glad, and your friends are many;
Be sad and you lose them all;
There are none to decline your nee
tared wine,
But alone you must drink life's gall.
Feast, and your halls are crowded;
Feast, and the world goes by;
Succeed and give, and it helps you
live,
But no men can help you die.
There is room in the halls of pleasure
For long and lordly train;
But one by one we must file on
Through the narrow alleys of pain.
