Question to Decide.

Atlanta, May 15.-Various answers
are being offered in Atlanta to the
query of the young Georgia girl in
New York who inquiries through the
New York Sun whether she ought
properly to be designated as a
Cracker" or a Peach"
1T all depends on how she looks, >
is one bright young mans suggestion,
and another offers the idea that some
expert food inspector might bite her
on the cheek and see which She tastes
like.
"If she is like most Georgia girls"
a young lady of Peachtree street is
quoted as declaring, she probably
looks like soda cracker in her be-
fore breakfast curl-papers,l and like
reach peach when she is dolled up
for the afternoon or evening.
The professional linguists at the
local schools and colleges hold un-
chivalrously that ezra cker" is the rea
term to designate any native of Geor-
gia, regardless of age or sex. The
term peach, they declare, apple:
equally to pink, plump and fair maid
ems of all states and all nationalities
Even an Eskimo maiden can be a
peach in musical comedy.

HONOR TO MEMORY
Tablet Bearing Tribute to Late
Dr.. S. P. Langley.
MODEL JUST COMPLETED
Designed to Perpetuate His Fame
as Discoverer in Field of
Aerodynamics.

John Flanagan has just completed the
design OF the memorial tablet to be erect
ed in this city to the late DIR. S. p. Lang
ley. secretary of the Smithsonian Institu-
tion, who died February 81, 1906 Prep
arations for this memorial have been dis
cussed ever since the death of DR.. Lang
ley. The memorial will deal only with
his work in aerodynamics. He was a sci
enlist of unusually wide range, natu-
ralist. an astronomer and one of the
world-recognized workers in spectroscop-
les and astrophysics. His most popular
research, however, was in connection with
mechanical flight Beginning in 1887, he
did an enormous amount of research
work in the then unknown realm of aero
dynamics.
In the course of his work he construct
ed model flying machine that had a
wing spread of fourteen feet and weighed
thirty pounds. This he built. as he ex-
planned in writing. not for the pride or
pleasure Of 1t, but because he needed
something capable of regular and sus-
tained flight to help him in his re-
searches
