One Little Tot Brings Happi.
ness to Heart of Woman
Who Adopted It.

There are more childless homes in
Georgia than children to fill them, to
judge from the number of applications
the Children's Home society has re-
ceived for one little boy. The Geor-
gian printed a picture of this youngster
few days ago. Robert McCord, SUI
perintendent, said TO-DAY that half a
dozen would be foster mothers had
asked for the boy and he hated to
think that all but one must be disap-
pointed
"One of the applicants is woman
with a fve-year- old boy" said Mr.. Nc
Cord, and she wants this three-year-
old for a companion to the elder. It's
against our usual rules to place child
where there are other children, with
the possibility of his receiving treat
ment different from that given own
babies, but this is such good home
we may make an exception"
Children Talks Her For Stork.
Mrs. Sarah LaRoche Roberts a
worker in the Wesley Memorial church,
took one of the societys orphans to a
new found home at Charlottesville a
few days ago, and wrote letter to Mr.
McCord of the way she was received
Children in Charlottesville thronged
around her, thinking she must be the
stork they had heard so much about,
and two or three made urgent demands
for baby brother or sister, usually
enecifving the exact shade of hair and
eyes desired.
The letter Mrs. Roberts wrote Mr.
McCord was, in part, as follows;
when the midnight train pulled into
the Union station ! boarded it, holding
tendery and closely TO my heart a dear
little baby. whom one hour ago | had
never seen. 1t was just a baby-that
was sufficient. All the God given ma
ternal instinct OF my nature went out
to it, to shield 1t. protect and love It. 1t
had been torn from it's mothers arms
by cruel fate over which its feeble
strength had no control Only baby!
Yes, but tell me II you can, what one
thing in ali this world is bigger or
greater than baby? OF what use is
all the wealth, trade, commerce and in
dustry except for a baby? Behind all
the great enterprises that ever stirred
men to supreme efforts was the one su
preme and only incentive; Love- home
and babies. After all, it's the love Of a
baby that rules the land.
Baby Talk Sweet Music.
I did not know whose baby l fon
died in the train-I really didn't care.
For time. at least, it was mine, and
held it close to my heart, and told it
loving, tender things that only wom
ans lips who has the mother heart can
tell.
MEN laugh at that strange, sweet
language called baby talk, but ! be-
lieve it is sweet music to the ears of
every true man. | don't think 1t neces-
sary to explain to true man. l have
seen tender women stoOp over the bed
of great, strong men, who were brought
low by the fever, and use this same
mother baby talk, and its effects be-
came almost as though she were talk
ing to a heart broken babe All hail to
the woman who can talk baby talk

THE AMERICAN ISSUE
May 10, 1912

the Freepor Bulletin tells the situation in the Twelfth
district and emphasizes the significance OF single
vote:
The value of one vote is often underestimated In the
recent primaries nominated g. w. Mddekauf tor
the state senate A. F. Wingert The nomination OF
Mr. Middlekauf by single vote, while unusual is nothing
to considered comparison to the election OF state
the Joliet district in 1876 say those who are
familiar with state history
n 1876 at Joliet independent candidate was elected
to the state senate over Republican candidate by vote
In the legislature this senator the deciding vote
and elected Davis independent Democrat to the United
States senate judge in the United States SUI
preme court at the and named to represent the
supreme court on the electoral commission Davis being
independent Democrat did not and the man ne
Hayes for president when the board di-
strictly party lines and Hayes declared elected
president over Tlden by the of four three
If Davis had remained the electoral commission the
board would have contained four Democrats and three Re
publicans and all probability Tlden would have been
president.
AS further evidence of the value that may result from
single Davis in the gave the deciding vote in
many important issue The evenly divided
along party lines at that time.
Hereafter when candidate asks you to vote, don't
answer whats the vote can't make difference
but remember how secured the nomination of Mr..
Middlekauf and how Joliet candidate in the
end elected president
We would say in passing that the contest
ty option is close that single vote at the fall
election November 5 may have the far reach
ing effect the vote for Judge Davis in 1876 In the
next legislature the fate of county option may
depend on one man. and that one man may be elected
by single vote. Your vote is important this time
You may be the decisive factor in this great fight.

Value of Just One Vote

In the last primary campaign we had good deal
to say about the obligations OF the individual voter
We emphasized the fact that have lost battles in the
past because of the failure of just handful OF good
men to do their duty A very few hundred votes out
of the 100000 that stayed away from the primary OF
1910 properly distributed would have elected enough
additional men to the legislature to give county
option bill
At the last primary one local option candidate tor
representative was defeated by sxtyseven votes when
there were thousands that stayed at home. Two local
option candidates for senator defeated by little
over 200 votes each and there thousands OF vot-
ers who did not cast their ballots. Probably at least
hadozen other candidates for the house OF represen-
tatives were defeated by margin OF not over ESQ
votes which means less than ninety voters. and this
would have been prevented if just few more local
option voters had been at their post of duty
Local Option Candidate Defeated BY One Vote.
In the Twelfth senatorial district, Judge A. +.
Wineert was the candidate endorsed by the Anti
Saloon League for state senator to succeed john I.
