Giant Flag Will Mark Georgia in Suffragists Parade
MRS. BELMONT COMING SOUTH
Atlanta Women Laying Plans
to Send Worthy Delegation
to Inauguration.

More valiant than ever is the suf-
fraglst of Atlanta today. THE men at
home" merely by existing. provided her
with most crushing argument in favor
of woman's rights yesterday afternoon
The suffragists were at the Carnegie
library to consider plans concerning the
trip to Washington for the great
Votes for Women" parade March 8.
1t became urgently necessary that those
VINO are going should pledge them
selves at once. for many things must be
arranged. Neatly printed pledge slips
We're passed around the assembly for
signatures. Mrs. Mabel Brewer, dis
tributing the slips, held a whispered
conference with each woman as she
passed among them.
Then she returned. She had almost
as many blank slips as when she had
started
I'VE can't find out today, Madam
President" she announced
There was sardonic note in her
voice.
We cham pions of woman's freedom
must consult our husbands and the
other men at home, 1t seems"
Rings Out an Ominous Voice.
THE lords of creation" spoke voice
in the rear Of the hall. 1t was a sharp,
clear voice, not at all a friendly voice.
1t implied a world Of sarcasm. It's
tone implied man tyrant, a milestone,
a blight. Before 1t spoke, the affairs
of the meeting had progressed with
out result. Afterward, things picked
| up, and for two hours the assembled
| women discussed seriously, earnestly
| and without a smile to betoken frivol-
| ity every conceivable means of moving
| toward the goal Of equal ballot.
Most of all, they discussed means
of getting large delegation Of Geor-
gia women to go to Washington and
take part In the parade.
Mrs. Woodall then bespoke the su-
preme sacrifice:
'Do anything to get to Washing
| ton. Do without your spring bonnet
or your spring dress, if necessary
Stern, Determined Look.
The faces of the women assembled
bore q stern, determined look
Mrs. Mary McLendon. president of
| the Georgia Wonan's Suffrage asso-
citation, white haired and gentle vet
eran in the fight for woman's rights
urged the women on to Washington
even harder than did Mrs. Woodall
The upshot of 1t all was the expires
| sion of a determination to go to Wash
| ington and to take Georgia's part in
the parade March g. Georgia's section
in the parade will be marked by a
tremendous flag, made in the days when
only 38 stars were in the field, a ire
mendous banner, fifteen fest by twenty
| five feet.
I'VE must have a man to carry it for
uR" said Mrs McLendon, in telling OF
| the treasure
John n. Sims, who said he was a
suffragist and proud OF It, volunteered
But I'll have to ask Mrs. Sims" he
said. You see, I'm a real believer in
equal rights"
Then Mrs. Brewer offered sug-
gestion that took the assembly by
storm
"rhe idea of needing men for all the
| work." she said. I'VE ought to have
man and a woman to carry the flag
That would be typical of our cause"
Mrs. Laura NJ. Walker, S11 White

scoffed at the proposition of man do

REAL DOGS OF WAR.
Military Experts See and Hear OF
Some Clever Airedales.
Prom the London Chronicle.

Fron the London Chronicle.
For the first time probably in the his
tory Of the Royal United Service 1nstt-
tuition a number OF dogs were introduced
to an audience. They were Airdale ter.
riers. trained by Mai. Richardson, the
breeder of dogs for military and police
purposes Mai. Richardson delivered q
lecture on The Employment Of War
Dogs" and mentioned that he had re-
ceived a request from the men Of the
Norfolk regiment for one Of his dogs
and had presented II With one. wnich
worked with the soldiers through last
summers maneuvers. He had received a
report from the officer of the company
to which the dog was attached, In which
he said:
"On three occasions had IN opportus
nifty of using the dog on outpost duties
at night. Each time found the presence
of the dog to be of the greatest value
He either remained beside the sentry %
went with a patrol. His value consists
in the fact that he can and does deteca
the approach of human beings some con-
siderable time before the eye or ear OF
the average man can distinguish anys
thing.
The result is that the sentry or patrol
is fully on the alert. and it is impossible
for them to be either ambushed or
rushed The dog is no expense. as he
feeds on the remains of the mems dinner.
He Is never allowed to run loose In camp
or barracks. and no one is allowed To
feed him except the man in charge OF
him. / am of opinion that II would be
very valuable asset to have four OF
these dogs attached to every infantry
battalion for service in the field.
"I hope at the next company training
to make more extensive trials OF his use-
,k,o Cd N hfR rnarhnd
Of indicating the approach Of any one
at night is quite silent. 1t consists OF .
low growl and a stirfening OF his body

!. The Simmons men were holding out,
waiting to throw their strength to the
winner. When the sixty-sevcnth ballot
had been taken, Muldon, squirting in
the miserable light at the secretary
figures, hit the table with the chair
leg and said:
"On this ballot Conway receives 81;
Underwood, 81; Simmons, :. There be-
ing no choice, you will prepare your
ballots for another vote"
Just then one of the Conway men
from the Second Ward left his place,
and touched one of Nolan'S fellows i'll

on the shoulder. Donahue started. The
man whispered in his ear, and re-
turned to his delegation, keeping his
eye on Donahue. Underwood looked

surprise. ,,

now-they had all forgotten to 60 70
the primaries the day before, and those
for whom he had sent carriages had
been too busy, or too respectable, to re-

scorch of cheap cigars still smacked in

them entirely out until he came back
from Mount Clemens two weeks after
the nomination.
But they were ballotting for perma-

House, McGlonc, over in the Second

Short Crops

The Orange Judd crop reporting service re-
ports that our grain, hay, cotton and tobacco
crops are so million tons short of last year. That
means loss in money and to the farmer of GAL
million dollars.
Corn is 23,1OO,0OO tons short, potatoes
100000 tons, cotton 100000 tons and hay
100000 tons. The shortage in corn means
high priced beef, the shrinkage in potatoes
means less to eat and the cotton loss means
higher priced clothing for the poor.
This is deplorable condition, yet there are
those arguing that a short crop means more
money for the farmer He has less to sell, they
say, but receives more for it and has to work
less for what he gets.
This is a very common notion, but is falla-
cy True, an isolated Individual who chances to
have good yield in bad year will make by it.,
but agriculture prosperity cannot be reckoned in
terms of the individual. 1t should be considered
as national problem or at least as class prob
lem So estimated short crop means that the
farmers will be short of just that much as well
the consumer.
Wealth consists not in prices but in goods.
Nobody can eat or wear dollars or gold pieces. If
potatoes are shy, green-backs won't take their
place.
And if it were really true that short crops
mean more money, it would be sound business
policy to Systematically reduce the yield. If, for
instance, our corn crop were cut down to guam
tity barely sufficient for seed, it would sell for
twenty-five dollars bushe But everybody
knows that this is fallacious reasoning because
the only use for seed grain is to produce heavy
yield The farmer who received a big return
from such crop would never receive another
because corn crops would cease.
And the farmers wht- receive more money for
what corn they sell will have that much less corn
to feed. This means that he would lose not only
his yearly interest represented by his crops, but
also his capital represented by his stock.
Looked at from any angle short crop is a
misfortune and to be depored. And one of the
most regrettable features about the whole mat
ter is that our beneficent monoposts will now
have one legitimate excuse for the high cost of
produce, an excuse which they will work for
twenty-four hours day.

When Earths last picture is painted and
the tubes twisted and dried,
When the oldest colors have faded, and the
youngest critic has died
We shall rest, and faith, shall need it
lie down for two,
Till the master of all good workmen shall
set us to work anew!
And those that good shall be happy:
they shall sit in a golden chair;
They shall splash at ten-league canvas
with brushes of comets hair;
They shall find real saints to draw from
MagdaIene, Peter and Paul;
They shall work for an age at a sitting and
never be tired at ALL
And only the master shall praise us, and
only the master shall blame;
And no one shall work for money, and no
one shall work for fame;
But each for the JOY of the working, and
each, in his separate star,
Shall draw the Thing as he sees it for the
God of Things they Are.

himself. He had no bad habits and was slated
for advancement
But one day while on shore leave John did
something he never did before, got uproariously.
hilariously, everastingly drunk. And while
drunk he beat up companion and also, so the
latter alleged, stole ten dollars.
When hailed into court John made a poor
showing and was defended by a cheap John
lawyer who didn't know his business. How
could lad without money, name or influence
have any other kind of a lawyer? As a result
of this unfortunate conspiracy of circumstance
John was sent to San Quentin penitentiary for
four years. Had he great deal of money he
wouldn't have gone at ALL had he some money
his sentence would have been lighter AS it was
