l1TF you all write about Atlanta
as 1T is today do not fail TO
speak of another Atlanta,
the city as It was In 1895"
The suggestion Of the old settler
was a good one and follow It, Civ
ing the long ago Atlanta prece-
dence.
The long-ago Atlanta had a pop
ulation Of about $4,000, and nearly
all were more or less poverty
stricken There was not money
enough IN the entire city to build
an ordinary three story brick
structure. Nearly all the brick
buildings in the business center had
fallen a few months before a s the
result Of battles and flames. and
the bricks were scattered in shape
less piles in streets and alleys All
the wooden structures had disap-
peared. There were hundreds Of
bleaching ash heaps, and in resi-
denoe districts there were other
heaps Of bricks and piles of yellow
ing ashes.
Shade trees had been broken by
shot and shell or blghted by
flames from burning homes The
city, from north to south and from
east TO west, extended lass than
mile and A half It was a city Of
alinost penntess people. But self
respect, spirit. hope. faith and de-
termination had not been shot
away or burned out That explains
why we see the queenly city of At
lanta as It is today
Give the picture Of old Atlanta as
I have painted It as close a survey
as your Imagination will permit
and then compare It with the other
Atlanta
Il Is true that to greater ex-
tent than was the case with any
other Southern city Northern men
and Northern capital have gone TO
Atlanta and have been a decided
factor in its uphuilding. but they
alone would never have made such
a city as We see IN the Empire state
Of the South The foundation for
the new city was laid by her sorelv
stricken people after they had lost
their property. their cause, their
business and their homes Let me
partly illustrate this by referring to
a few who had a large share in lay
ing that foundation Some Of these

Her education was futthered. her
memory strengthened and taste
cultivated by this method
One of Americas great scien-
tifc men began the musical educa-
ton of his baby girl when she was
a day old
He had certain musical chords
struck in the room where she was
lying every day. so that her ear
should become accustomed to har- 7
mony.
And as she progressed sweet airs
were played gently in the room.
L'fe was never meant for mere
hard work, for mere stern duty, nor
only for the commonplace neces-
sary toll which keeps the world go
ing. A skilled chef garnishes his
meats with SPRAYS Of green, and
the flowers of the arts should gar
nish the dish of everyday life.
Emerson. our great philosopher
and scholar, lost the powers Of his
mind before he reached three score
years
Had he given a portion Of every
day, or even a few hours weekly to
something which took his mind
away from the serious things Of
life, had he cultivated art, or an
Accomplishment, or allowed himself
to become frivolous as distrac-
ton. there is no doubt he might
have retained his usefulness much
longer
In Pompeii there are deep rnts
in one Of the narrow streets, made
by the passing Of chariots centuries
ago.
The passage was not wide enough
to allow the chariot wheels any
margin. and they followed out the
deep ruts by continually passing
over the same places.
So do thoughts on one subject,
without any variation, wear ruts
in the brain
This is an age Of specialists.
But while one may specialize on
the principal object Of his life,
there remains enough time for him
to gain ornamental graces Of mind,
if he understands their importance
and uses his hours wisely.

Simple Matter To Teach
Child To Love Poetry.

A brilliant actress. who was ia
nous for learning her roles quickly
and without effort said that her
mother began with her at the age
OF four to teach her two lines of
verse daily
At that early period the mind of
child is like Aim of camera
exposed to the view. and takes its
impressions instantly
Each day the two lines Of verse
were added until At the age Of ten
the little lady could repeat whole
cantos Of verse and acts of drama.

IF I had my life to live over
again I would have made a rule
to read some poetry and listen
to some music at least once q week;
for perhaps the parts of my brain
now atrophied would thus have
been kept active through use. The
loss of these tastes is a loss of hap
piness. and may possibly be inju
rious to the intellect, and more prob
ably to the moral character. by en-
feebling the emotional part of our
nature.-Darwin, in his Autobiog-
raphy.

EXPENDITURE FOR WAR.

+. Z. Claxton, L. S. Commissioner of
Education, at recent meeting of the
American School Leagure, in st, Lou
is, in emphasizing the educational pos
sibilities which would result from the
curtailment of expenditures for arma-
ments, made the following striking
statements:
"The expenditure for war equipment
in the United States for one year could
establish national university, with an
income of $l0,000,000 annually, new
state university in each state with an
annual income of Sl,000,000; 100 new
high schools with an annual income of
$40, 900, five normal schools with an an
nual income of 100000, five technical
schools and thirty agricultural schools.
Besides, $1,000, 900 could be given to
the United States common school fund
yearly and the text books of every
pupil in the entire school system could
be purchased out of the same fund"

LOCAL TRAVELLERS HONOR DEAD,

The Manitowoc Branch of the United
Commercial Travellers held their an
nual memorial services at their lodge
hall in the Wood block last Sunday
afternoon. The memorial address was
delivered by Ralph G. Plumb. The
keynote was the danger of the grow
ing cynicism of the average man, his
disbelief in disinterested and unselfsh
virtue, of this cynicism to our polite
al, religious and general social rela-
tions and plea for faith that the
world is growing better. Prof. Horst
meier, Edwin Knutzen, and Mrs. Theo.
Thompson rendered instrumental music
and there were selections by quartette
composed of Messrs Ludwig, Daeke,
Lang and Buerstatte. Brief talks
were given by j. G. Diedrichs, M. S.
Smith, j. S. Egan, w. w. Nelson. A.
Zander, and VIM. G.. Raetz as Off GERS
of the lodge.
The local has two deceased broth ers,

BROUGHT THEM BACK.

Sheriff Pellet returned Tuesday
from a chase that took him to the
Puget Sound country in the far north
west and thence to the Mexican border
in the extreme southwest. He started
after Charles Dedrick wanted for wife
desertlon and located him at Seattle.
After fighting ghdbedS corpus and serving
eXtradition papers he received tele-
gram from District Attorney Healy to
bring back Alfred Klinkenberg of Two
Rivers TO answer TO the complaint of
girl of that city. He found the auth
critics holding klinkenberg near San
Diego, California and took him in
charge. He then came to Seattle with
his new captive, picked up Diedrick
there and TO avoid more legal tangles
which were threatening hustled out of
the state and landed both in Jail here.
1t is costly journey but fresh young
men must be taught that the arm of
the law is long and strong.
