and ability. Ousley Stanley has
the mind of the poet, the philos-
opher and the sage, and he is
witty and eloquent TO marx ed

There is another Kentuckian
whose grasp of governmental
problems and whose superb
power TO grasp them is without
equal in public life today. He
has the intuition of Bib. the
logic of Carlisle, the patriotism
of Beck and the eloquence of
Clay Every throb of his big
heart beats loyal TO the masses.

AN EDUCATIONAL NEED.

The recent announcement by Gov
ernor-elect Hoka Smith that he VIII
advocate as governor the formation OF
state board Of education composed OF
educators, is one of unusual interest.
The more thoughtful people Of the
state and those who are acquainted
more thoroughly with educational ma
tiers have often wondered why the
management of educational affairs BY
the state has not been placed in the
hands of men who are professionally
familiar with educational affairs.
1t is the same old question of plac-
ing the affairs of a given branch Of
government in the hands Of those VINO
are most capable of handling them
Our neighboring state, Alabama, sey-
eral years ago saw the futility of the
plan that is still in use in Georgia. The
Alabama department of education is
now managed by a state board of edu-
cation composed of educators. The
result has been that education in Ala
bama has made remarkable progress
in recent years.
In addition to mourning more efficI-
ent management of matters pertaining
to education, the new plan should help
to eradicate the present obsolete meth
cd Of grading examinations. BY the
present system, there are as many
standards of judgment in grading ex-
aminations as there are county school
commissioners in the state. With a
central state board of examiners and
graders, there could be brought about
a uniform system Of grading A GER
tiicate issued by the central board
would then be accepted by any school
in the state, where special examnia-
tons for teachers were not required.
Georgia's educational system is an
excellent one, but it needs the advant-
ages to be gained by the system which
Mr.. Smith advocates.

MAJORITY OF SENATOR'S ALL
Blight.

Direct election of Senators by the
people would be a good way of select
ing them, but it is a great delusion to
suppose that it would give very differ
ent results from those obtained now.
There are a few members of the Sem
ate who have no record of popularity,
and whose great wealth suggests the
possibility that they attained their
present office by methods more easily
worked in small than in a large CON
stituency. But, as the Philadelphia
Record points out, the great majority
OF the Senators had been in the lime
light in their respective states for
many years before they reached the
Senate, and had received ample evil
dence of the confidence of their respec-
tive parties in repeated election g
office
Twenty-Five members of the Senate
have been Governors of their states,
four of them for three terms each
and eight of them for two terms each.
Thirty-seven of them have been mem
bers Of Congress, one for ten terms
one for nine, two for eight, two for
seven, two for six, three for five, four
for four, and six for three terms. Some
of the Senators have been both Govern
ors and Congressman.
Thirty-two members of the Senate
have never been either Governor or
Congressman, but one was nominated
for Senator by his state convention, one
had been the defeated candidate for
Governor, one had been long the chair
man of the State Committee of mis-
party, one had been for eight years
Speaker of the House Of Representa-
tives in his State Legislature, and one
had been president of his State SEN
ate Many Of the others had served III
their respective Legislatures, or as A.
torney General by election, or had been
elected Judge.
The number Of unknown men, of men
conspicuous only as millionaires or Of
ficers of corporations, prior to their
election to the Senate, is not so large
as to justify fear of the collapse of our
institutions if the present methods oil
choosing Senators should continue
Here and there man has been in
debted to his financial position for his
election to the Senate, but plenty oil
men of the same sort are elected to the
House of Representatives

ATHLETICS IN THE PUEBLO
SCHOOLS.

There is no longer any doubt abou
THE helpful influence of athletic train.
ing in the public schools Reports
from fifty-six OF the fifty-aight princi-
pals of the elementary schools of the
city of Providence, R. l., show that
TIE practice of athletics under COM
petent directors, has not only helped
the children physically, but has ac-
tually increased their interests IN
their studies. This is partly due to
the improvement in the physical con-
dition of the children, which produces
a brighter intellectual condition. But
another reason is that no child is al
lowed to participate in the games and
exercises unless his average in all
studies, including athletics is satisfac-
tory.
1t is well to say that Providence is a
city which has taken an advanced
stand in this phase of child training,
and the report of principal Of one Of
the schools sets forth the value Of
physical exercise in child education
He says that athletics have proved Of
great educational value in his school;
that self-reliance, judgment, quick
perception and promptness of action
have been stimulated; good fellowship
and democratic spirit fostered, and
teachers and pupils have been brought
into closer relations
"Athletics," he says teach cour-
teousness and amiability They make
the school second home, and also
make teachers more successful educa-
tors by leading them to see child lite
in its varying phases" Physical Gull
ture is now taught in nearly all the
public schools of this country, but in q
comparatively limited way in many Of
them, yet the experience of Providence
shows that this part of the public
school training might be greatly ex-
tended to the benefit of both pupils and
teachers. The good results Of it are
already observable in the public school
of New Orleans and other Southern
cities.

THE BOY AND THE FARM.

One Of the most hopeful elements IN
the progress of agriculture in Georgia
and the South to-day is the vital and
general interest being manifested IN
corn culture and other agricultural en-
deayor by the boys and young men Of
the farms
There is no better way to revolution
ize agriculture and to put it on more
progressive and modern basis than by
infusing love for farming in the
hearts of boys and young man. The
older farmers have gotten into a ruT,
and it is difficult to move them out Of
it. They have followed old methods
and stayed for such long time in the
lethargy of ignorance that they viii
not investigate modern scientific meth
DDS.
How many farmers there are to-day
who continue from year to year using
the same old methods they have used
during their entire lives. Their meth
DDS may be very good, in which case
they make fairly good farmers. BIT
how much more effective their work
would be, if they would get in touch
with what all the world is doing in
this particular. The average farmer
follows continually the plans derived
from his own narrow and limited eX-
perience, occasionally broadened by
those of his neighbors, when, with z
little effort and initiative, he might bet
ter his methods by the wisdom of an
unlimited number of other farmers
who have reached the top in progress
sive farming.
But little can be done for the old
conservative farmers who have been
indefinitely in rut The best way in
which to benefit them, however, as
well as the farmers of the future, S
for energetic boys and young men e
take up new methods in farming, there
! by making possible future generations
of agriculturists who will profit by
science and the most approved meth
DDS that can be evolved, There is al
ways hope in the fresh, tolerant and
progressive outlook of the youthful
mind in whatever fields it may find
employment
The formation of corn-growing clubs
by the boys and young men of Sumter
county is a movement fraught with
great inspiration The far reaching
good that is to be accomplished 1y
the work of these young men cannot b.
measured in dollars and cents. II
should signify renewed growth and
prosperity in agriculture and in the
maintenance of interest in the work OF
the farm among coming generations
which is one of the most vital preser-
yatiyes of the life and growth of the
entire commonwealth.

THE BIRD INSIDE THE HEART.
Baltimore Sum

Love is a bird within the heart,
Like yon bird in cage,
Far in his sweet retreat apart
From darkness and from age.
Silent at intervals, and then,
On the blue dreams a-sail
Startling the listening ears Of men
With song of nightingale.
Love is the rhythmic beating thing
Perched in that cage of Life
Balanced upon its dainty wing
Singing above the strife.
Over the head the thunder rolls,
To battle march the feet,
Down in the little cage of souls
Pipeth that wonder-sweet.
Storms of adversely arise,
The old, sweet seas are tossed,
Far on the fields of burning fray
Flags of the cause are lost.
Sweet in the solemn sweet Of night,
Out of his cage, oh hear,
Burst of the music that is light,
Ring of redemption clear!
Love is bird within the heart,
Gagged as yon songster there,
But the steel bars he breaks apart,
Even the bars of care,
Mounting untrammaled on the wing
Song lifts unto the SIN,
Oh how he bubbles back the spring
Oh, how the ripples run.
