BILLY MADE GOOD TO THE
SURPRISE OF HIS PEOPLE

They went through the few rooms,
SO wonderfully changed with large
open windows, occasionally a new arti-
Gle Of furniture, bright, fresh walls
and floors, and out upon the wide, cool
new porches

Molly, do you think? Sit here in the
swing and I'll tell you about it." He
took his billbook out of his pocket and.
selecting a paper, gave it to her.
1t was bank deposit slip and
showed a credit of $500 in favor of
Molly A. Meylan, by w. R. Gleason.
I've got one just like It," said
Molly

"Oh, l see! Mine doesn't have by
W. R. Gleason on it. What is 1t on
there for, Billy"
Molly, there weren't any McKims.
You saved one of the butchers kids

Molly's eyes lighted with under

/ wanted to help you, Molly, and you
wouldn't let me, so had to resort to
stratagem."
But where did you get the money!"
Il have been carefully saving it up
for the past three years in the hope of
your marrying me: I find 1t pays a
fellow to economic in the beginning
of his life"
"But your aunt said" began Molly
"Oh, don't worry about what Uncle
Bills wife said. Your old professor
being her brother had a great deal to
do with her tales of me. But tell me,
Molly, how do you like the house?"
Her blue eyes were cleaning ten

Won't you forgive me?"

Made good, you great big man!

looked at him shyly. "The only way

BUILDING UP BRITAIN'S NAVY.

News comes from Bombay that the
princess and other rulers of India, that
vast Empire of the East with a quar-
ter billion in population have inaugural
ed a movement to present to England
three super dreadnaughts and nine
first-class armored cruisers, to be
made an addition to the greatest fleet
of the Mediterranean and Indian Ocean.
The coming sessions of the Canadian
parliament will be marked by debate
over a proposition to present two of
the most powerful type of battleships
to the mother country, with an annual
subsidy equivalent to their mainten-
ance.
At the Antipodes, in remote Aus
tralia similar plan has been sug-
gested and is likely to bear fruit in a
similar gift
An addition of ten fine fighting craft
from the colonies would be no mean
increase in the naval strength Of
Great Britain Germany has no children
scattered around the globe to rise up
and assist her in such fashion Per-
haps India Australia and Canada are
merrily serving notice on England
foes that so far as they are concerned
their resources are entirely at the
command Of the mother country in the
event of war.

OFFICIAL ORGAN:
IN MEMORY OF A NOBLE MAN

One of the most gracious acts mark
ing the sessions of the South Georgia
Conference at Savannah was the gift
of twenty overcoats to as many min
listers of the conference by Mr.. J. a. G.
Carson, Jr, of that city. Two over
coats went to each district, the pre-
siding elders selecting those to whom
they were to be presented with the
donors kindest greetings.
Mr.. Carson's father, who passed
away some months ago, was one OF
the most devout and most devoted
members of the South Georgia Confer
ence. For sixty years or more his life
exemplified daily all that is best in
the word christian and
nobility of character, spirit of in
tense attachment to his church with a
broad, catholic love of his fellow men
regardless of creed. No man was more
highly esteemed for enduring virtues
of the highest type. The fragrance of
his memory will long remain with
those who knowing him could not fail
to appreciate his sterling integrity. his
unimpeachable morality, his infiexible
dedication to the principles of his
faith, with a dominating and unvary-
ing gentleness of disposition that
marked him among men. The grac-
ious gift referred to is no doubt a
tribute from his son to the memory OF
the father who, if living, would have
found delight in the sessions of the
Conference in his home city

ENDORSED THE KENYON BILL

The Kenyon bill, prohibiting the
shipment of liquors into a dry state
has been endorsed by the South Geor-
gia Conference.
This bill, now before Congress, pro-
hibits common carriers from accepting
for transportation intoxicating liquors
whose destination is any point in a
state whose laws prohibit the manu-
facture and sale of such liquors.
This bill is receiving the support of
the various Protestant church bodies
throughout the country 1t is intend
ed to make state prohibition laws more
effective 1t is felt that it is morally
wrong for the national government to
tolerate a condition which amounts to
defiance of state laws AS it is now

Letting orders and on receipt of them
ships the goods by express or freight
into the territory where their sale is
unlawful
1t may be that the Kenyon bill will
not pass at the approaching session OF
Congress but there is every reason tc
believe that eventually it will find its
way on the statute books, despite the
bitter opposition of the liquor inter.
ests The anti-liquor sentiment grows
stronger from year to year, despite tn,
reports of increased consumption O
whisky, and the time is not very re
mote when it will be sufficiently pow
erful to secure legislation along thi.
line.

spondent shake of her brown head, as
they paused at the crowded street
crossing, have inferred my very last

eyes showed surprise and resentment.

Molly, "but what you save that deter

San Antonio, Tex, May 4.
Miss Molly A. Meylan,
Dallas, Texas.
My Dear Miss Meylan:
Two weeks ago while my wife and
l were passing through Dallas, you
heroically saved our child from death.
We feel that we owe you something
beside the deep thankfulness in our
hearts, and after learning your name,
and that you are self-supporting, we
have deposited for you in the First
National bank, Dallas, Tex, the sum
of ($500) five hundred dollars, which
we beg you to accept as small re-
Enumeration for your noble deed. You
need not reply, as we are travelling
and would probably not receive your
letter
Most humble yours,
CLARA and HAROLD McKIM.
''Whew-w!" whistled Gleason, "but I
call that some luck! Wish I'd saved
that kid!
A month later Gleason went up to
the farm and escorted Molly home. At
the gate she stopped, with a puzzled
look at the house
BILLY" she said, facing him, what
does this mean?"
Never mind" Gleason laughed,
leading the way up the walk; Il will
explain later"
At the door a woman in white cap
and apron met them and directed
them into the little parlor.
Come and see how you like things;
then I'll explain" said Gleason, still
leading the way.

AMERICUS GROWING INDUSTRI.
ALLY.

Satisfactory, indeed, is the news that
the latest addition to the already var
led industrial life of Americas will
begin its career with an increased
capital and with every prospect of an
unusually successful career
Such industries as the art metal
factory mean much to a city like this
Employing considerable skilled and
high-priced white labor, it will add
materially to the population of the
city, bringing a desirable class of
white citizens. This means more
houses to be built, it means more re-
tail trade, it means more support for
churches and other public institutions.
Everybody, in the end, feels the slim
ulating benefit resulting from the es-
tablishment of such factory here.
The success of this industry will in
evitably lead to the organization of
other companies for the establishment
of other industries. This is well To-
Gated city for manufacturing concerns
in some lines, with a large territory
easily reached from it, constantly
growing in population and wealth.
There is no reason why it should not
have numerous small industries and
become as widely known as a manu-
featuring point as it is as the heart of
one of the South's most highly favored
agricultural sections.
