SOCIETY IN WASHINGTON
BY CONSTANCE CARRUTHERs

Washington, February 3.-(Special.)- Only a little more than two weeks in- tervene between now and Ash Wednes- day when the social season is supposed
 to end. In fact it will end so far as set functions and formal dances are con cerned but the society element which is not bound by the strict rules of the
 church will have plenty to keep them
 at least pleasantly engaged for some time to come.
 It will have been one of the most in teresting seasons we have had in Wash ington for long time and has been marked by some rather novel innovations. Never for instance. has dancing been so universally popular
 Dancing now is no longer regarded as more appropriately an evening diversion, and many daytime functions conclude with a dance. While dancing has become a feature of young peoples parties, music enters more and more into Inequalities arranged for their elders.
 Mrs Taft has had much to do with the innovation. She has been a patron of music here as she was in her home in Cincinnati, and seldom entertains in the White House without music play ing it's part in the hospitality. Dancing now concludes every White House reception. the waltz and the two-
 step, as played by the Marine band, con- l SlllfinS tDt ploSlctitiit+ ihN | fNNA'NA4S does not participate in his only favorite 1 amusement this sea son. but Miss Taft, | Miss Anderson and the White House

 being selected from the personal friends of the young daughters of the house, | consist chiefly of the gayest of the young married set, with the maids and bache- lors prominent in diplomatic and official circles. The Meyer home is the well known residence of Mrs. D. r. Morgan

 could be purchased at wholesale rates

 "The College Hero" Is really a comic opera. but it is so spectacular in it's na- ture that it is styled a musical extrava- ganza. It is satire on college life. Everything connected with a modern coed college is depicted on the stage.

Jesse Brown, Alr. James D. F. Schneider Mir George H. OConnor, Mir. Morven Thomp- son, MT. Arthur H. Diebert, Mir. Edward Cady, MT. George A. Bentley and Mir. Addison Smith.
 Among the attractive groups In "The College Hero Is that of 'Beaux and Belles,' led by Miss Mama Taylor. Bus mess and social engagements are being cancelled, not only by the "beaux and helles." but by hundreds of other mem hers of the big cast, in order to make this charity production stupendous sue cess.

 The actual oversize, measured by air capacity, was lately found to av- craze 16.7 per cent over five other leading makes

THE Rows, CORN CInBs.

The News is glad to note and en-
dorse the movement for the organi-
cation of a boys corn club in Terrell
county. The boys corn clubs did fine
work in Georgia the past year. There
were clubs of forty or fifty boys that
averaged as high as sixty-three bush
els per acre. In one, county there
were ten boys who made over one
hundred bushels of corn to the acre,
and in this congressional district
there were thirty-two boys in the
one hundred-bushel class.
In discussing some of the benefits
of these clubs the Southern Guilt
vator says: The production of this
corn will be good, for it is needed.
The influence these yields will have
in their local communities will re-
suit in untold good to these young
boys, who at so early an age will
have learned to make an acre pro-
duce something like a maximum
yield. They will grow up to have
some confidence in farming, and to
realize the great difference between
ordinary slack methods and the best
scientific plans. We shall expect
much of these boys who early have
learned to handle the soil, fertilizers
and seed. The impetus should both
grow and spread They should learn
to make yields of other crops; and,
having grown large crops, also learn
to be good feeders and stock rails
ers. We certainly need farmers of
higher ideals and who have more
confidence in the returns that can be
obtained from the cultivation of the
soil.
Corn being the basis of our food
supply it is well that the clubs were
organized to grow this corn. We
wish all these young boys we'll, and
trust many more will join their
ranks

FLAGLER, Grand Old MAN.

The matter we print today about
the "Over-the-Sea" railway line is
full of interest, for it tells Of one of
the greatest engineering feats Of this
or any other century, work of
scarcely less interest than the Pan
ma and Suez canals or the Tehaunte-
pee railroad across Southern Mexico.
Think of the possibilities of travel
that come into view with the open
ing of the East Coast Line to Key
West. The tourist will enter Pull
man car at New York, never leaving
it until he arrives at Key West. His
destination is Havana, Cuba. He
need not leave the Pullman at Key
West unless he desires to do so, for
on arrival there it is transferred to
an ocean ferry boat, tOwed by a
stout tug, and in four or five hours
Havana is reached. Then the Amer
lean tourist can step out on solid
ground. He had crossed the sea in
Pullman car. 1t is a fascinating
thought.
And this great work is an endur-
ing monument to the genius and
courage of one man-an old man,
for he had reached his eighty-seventh
year before the project was fairly
under way-and the man is Henry
M. Flagler How many men Of his
age and his wealth who would have
devoted the evening of their life to a
work so stupendous? The average
man of affairs would have said: 81
have done enough Let those who
come after me take up this prob
lem"
All hail to the courage and the
splendid purpose Of this grand old
man, now we'll past eighty, who has
thus given to the world and younger
men an example of what is always
possible, and to civilization one of
its grandest achievements.
