THE MAN WHO WROTE SPARTA.

Generation after generation of Amer
lean schoolboys have acclaimed Spa

never stopped to wonder what stenog-
rapher among the ancients took down
these celebrated remarks. AS a matter
of fact, both were the work of New
England clergyman, Elijah Kellogg.
"Spartacus' was written while he was
a theological student at Andover in
1912 for the rhetorical exercises of his
class. "Regulus" was written three
years later for a fellow student ID
speak in a prize competition.
What college youth of these days
could write such forciful orations
These have never been surpassed and
in some schools it has surpassed and
in some schools it has become neces-
sary to bar them from the list at prize
speaking competitions, so invariably
do they carry off the prizes
OF all the work of Elijah Kellogg,
these alone remain known. Yet he
wrote thirty wholesome books %"
boys, some of them tales of the woods
and some of school, and was for years
an eloquent pastor at the Seaman's

JAPANESE PHYSIQUE
New York Times.)

(N6W 1OEh / llI6S.J
William Elliott Griffis, who is well
acquainted with the Japanese, believes
that the whole question of the Japan
ese' ability to receive the highest form
of civilization lis intimately connected
with their physical constitution. The
physique of the mountaineers and sail
ors, fishermen, and steadily employed
coolies" he says, seems to be the
finest. The average hight of the men
is 5 feet. The Japanese never smoke
opium, like the Chinese; but the habit
of filing the lungs with tobacco smoke
and exhaling it through the nose does
not tend to pulmonary health, and, in
comparison with the white nations
they are notably fat breasted,
The question has been raised as to
whether the Japanese are a degener-
ate race. ! think the evidence leans to
the negative side. In their method Of
rearing infants, only the hard ones can
survive the exposure to which they
are subject. Deformity is strikingly
rare. Nervous disorders are not gen.
eral. 1t is probable that the people do
not always take extraordinary pains TO
rear deformed infants. The almost
national change for the better in the
diet, clothing, and public hygienic pro-
lection and education of the people
must bear good fruit for future gen
erations, and greatly improve, the av-
erage physique of the nation"

0BLITERATING THE FIELD OF
WATERLOO
Boston THranscript.)

NOOoNOAA L III ftLoN4 iPI'J
While Americans are preparing for
the observance of the semi-centennial
of Gettysburg, and thousands will study
the battle by the aid of monuments and
markers on the battlefield, complaint
comes to England that the Waterloo
terrain is in danger. While La Hale
Sainte and Hougomont still bear the
marks of cannon shot, both are in
danger of being rebuilt and part of the
Hougomont wall against which the
wave of French courage dashed in
vain has already been pulled down.
That is not the worst of the situation,
according to a British officer who re-
Gently visited the field. Tramcars and
cheap fares have been followed by
''tawdry cafes" located on the very
spot whence the Imperial Guard re-
coiled What is to be done?
The suggestion is that cooperation
of Belgians and Englishmen who would
preserve the topography of Waterloo
may be effective in doing for that
famous field what has been done for
Gettysburg, but the first step, it is adj
mitted will be very expensive. If pre-
servation is not organized there is dan
ger that the strategic points will be
obliterated by garden and farm field.

Belong to Virginia.

Very recently on May %, the remains
of Light Horse Harry Lee were re-
moved from Dungenness, on Cumber-
land Island, where they had reposed
for almost a hundred years, and TAX
en- to Virginia. The body was buried
at the old Lee home in Virginia. When
the Daughters of the Revolution of Vir-
ginia first spoke of the removal our
Georgia women objected, but properly
withdrew the objection. 1t was proper
that the father of Robert E. Lee be bu-
ried in Virginia. The Lees belong TO
Virginia, just as the Cobbs belong to
Georgia. The Lees are a part of Vir-
ginia, and the Cobbs part Of Georgia.
Charles Francis Adams, in discussing
Gen. R. E. Lees attitude, said: who
can imagine a Lee fighting Virginia?

READY TO OBEY THE LAW

1t is gratifying to note as told in an
interview from City Physician Cham
bliss that the meat markets, restaur-
ants, and other public places in the
city where foods are sold have already
gone far toward complying with the
laws of the state as regards cleanli-
ness and sanitation in the handling of
these products.
Conditions as shown by the first in
spection made here recently reflected
gravely upon many of these dealers.
But the brief inspection reported il
yesterdays Times-Recorder was of an
entirely different nature, as it showed
that within the short time that mas
passed since the inspection by tn
state officials the dealers here hav'
done all they could to comply vita
me requirements.
This is a very clear manifestation of
the fact that these dealers are realE
to do all they can to give the people OF
the city their foods under as careful
and sanitary handling as possible. No;
a single one of the dealers but who
has already taken steps to comply
with the requirements made.
The recent campaign is but an Ell
tering wedge for a widespread reform
in the manner of Strengthening and
handling meats, especially, in the 10
cal market. 1t will take time to work
out all the details of the methods that
are to be employed, but they will be
perfected in time and they will be ar
ranged in such a manner that they will
not work a hardship on any one.
The cooperation of the dealers
gives assurance of the fact that this
reform was undertaken in timely man
ner. Americas will profit by it. The
dealers will not lose anything. Con-
sequently everyone will be benefited.

SUMTER COUNTY FARMERS
WHY NOT YOU?

The Editor of the Cotton
and Cotton Oil News, of
Dallas, Texas, states in his
paper that he knows of a
farmer who sold ten bales
of certified cotton to the
Southern States Cotton Cor
pOratiOn when cotton was
nc. He received $45 cash
per bale and $50 in script.
He was offered 75c on the
dollar for his script, took it
and thus received $3.50 per
bale for his cotton, or 81 so
per bale more than the mar
ket price less 81 per bale for
certification, or a net profit
over his nelghbOrS who
sold by the old system of
$4,000. We wish to say
that no one connected with
the corporation is permitted
to dis count script at any
time. What those who hold
scrip wish to do with it is

WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH THE
GEORGIA FARMER!

How the farmers of Georgia who -
not grow enough food crops to supply
themselves can ever hope to become
independent it is hard to understand.
The necessity of growing at home
those products that can be grown at
home is imperative. Yet the following
pathetic commentary on this state OF
affairs is given by the Fort Gaines
Southwest Georgian:
From January /, 1913, to May 18th
of same year, there were shipped into
Fort Gaines from distant states 1896
$50 pounds of corn, oats, feed and
meal.
in this huge pile were nearly hall
million pounds each of corn, oats
and mixed feed, $4,000 pounds of hay
and 1879 800 pounds of meal
Besides all this there was more
than 100000 pounds of Western meat
unloaded at the railroad depot.
The retail value of this nearly two
million pounds of feed is approXimateN
$4,000. Ninety-fve per cent of the
entire tonnage has already beer
bought and fed away" and farmer
in this immediate section did near!
all the buying and feeding.
This isn't all. The same show {,
going on (perhaps on a slightly small
er scale) at Coleman, Edison, Bluffto.
and Blakely. Clay county farmers ar
big users of the shipments of feed re
ceived at those places.
This county has already spent a
least $4,000 for corn, oats, hay, mixet
feed and bacon. A Fort Gaines bankC
says it will take that much more L
finish the crop, i, e., to keep an ade
quate food supply until about Jul,
18th.
Then there's -four, lard, coffee
clothing, fertilizer and a dozen othe
things that cost money.
Were going to spend about three
quarters of million dollars this year
Half of it will be for something Il
eat, and four-fifths Of this is food w
could raise here in the county withou
perceptibly lessening our cotton crop
We're going to make this year, i
we have good luck, about half a m.'
lion dolars's worth of cotton, whic
will not pay our debts.
How much food will be raised, thi
year, we don't know; but our guess il
that there1l be about one-tenth o
enough as usual. And that will spe,
again, next year, what Sherman said.
Who's to blame? Who's going I,
try to do something to strengthen GU
the kinks? Somebody had better com,
