RIDING BREECHES

Special Gable 10 The Atlanta GEORGIAN.

Special Gable TO The Atlanta Georgian.
LONDON. June 27.-King George
to-day Joined Queen Mary in her
ban on women riding astride by is
suing another royal decree that no
woman rider shall wear breeches IN
the presence of the King or Queen.
These commands" have aroused a
great deal of discussion among eques-
triennes.
Lady Greenall, wife Of Sir Gilbert
Greenall one of the promoters of the
international Horse Show, took the
side of the King and Queen Mary.
1T is certainly a more pleasing
sight to see a woman rider in the
traditional side saddle and dressed in
feminine garb than to see her tearing
along wearing mans clothing and
seated in a mans saddle. Experience
has taught that the side saddle is the
real saddle for women" said she.
Others. however. took an entirely
opposite view.

T. u. institute will be held in our
village, the name of the church in
which it will be held will be an
nounced later. Mrs. Perkins of Ann
Arbor will be with us and those who
heard her when she was with us last
summer will not need to be told that
she is most excellent speaker, and
no one should miss this opportunity
of hearing her. Besides that, ex-
cellent programs are being prepared
for the occasion and very excel
lent meeting is expected, and cor
dial invitation is extended to all, and
we believe that those who come will
not regret the effort. Our president
is sparing no pains or trouble to
make this great success.
Much good is being accomplished
this year by medal contests. Mrs
Flora e. Wertman has won a silk
banner by holding lin one year sc
contests, many being held in locali-
ties where no Union existed, reach
ing many with stirring speeches who
had never heard the temperance gos-
pei Mrs. Leula Walker held one
where the speakers were six little
girls, and the recitation named, "On-
| ly Sixteen" won the medal. Some
say the contests are not needed, II
only the good men are aroused to
action they are strong enough to
quickly destroy the awful curse OF
| the liquor traffic IL they choose to
do so. All reputable journals op-
hold the railroad companies and
their corporations, who for economic
reasons, will not employ drinking
men, and more than $50 dailies re-
| fose to take liquor advertisements,
and nearly all the best magazines
now exclude them. In March a bill
will be introduced in the Alaska
Legislature providing for enfranchis-
ing women on the same terms with
men. In Montana and South Dakota
the amendment passed both houses,
and the governors being advocates
Of suffrage, their signatures are as
sured. We are rejoicing over the
recent passage of the long desired
bill prohibiting the shipping of liq-
uors into dry territory. So we have
encouragement to still continue to
work on knowing that Joy in service
comes by forgetting ourselves and
thinking only of others.

The Average Man.
He is straight and tall and broad and
strong,

He is straight and tall and broad and
strong,
And he is clean and neat.
He fares him forth with CHEEKY song,
A figure good to meet.
He makes no pose of pride or wealth,
He does whate'er he can:
So here is toast and here is health
To the great average man!
He has true and loving wife
Who greets him with kiss.
His home is free from jar and strife,
A breathing place of bliss;
And SO because of steadfast trust
In the Creators plan
He makes this human life august
The splendid average man!
He loves the tender common things
The pine against the sky;
The happy grid that sings and sings
Upon the treetop night.
The gorgeous race of flowers he
loves;
He loves the rainbow's span;
The greenwood and the painted
groves
Delight the average man.
He fights for honor and for truth
He strives for aye to be
Examples for the eyes of youth,
A force for honesty
His face is open as his soul:
His thought is clean to scan;
Good luck attends him to his goal
All hail the average man!

''There are no commercial varities of
alfalfa in the sense that we have var
ieties corn, wheat, etc. For general
use we must depend mainly upon the
American grown seed of the common or
the blue flower alfalfa, though the
Grimm and other selections of the var
iegated alfalfa are very desirable for
planting under Michigan conditions.
Northern grown seed should be pur-
chased in preference to that grown in
the central and southern states"
'.New seedlings of alfalfa should be
clipped often enough to hold the weeds
in check but not usually more than two
or three times during the first season. -
"Alfalfa should be seeded on prac-
tically every farm. all or a portion of
which is we'll drained, throughout the
agricultural portions of the state. Its

are seeded alone as hay crop, seeded

to the people of Michigan on April
Z. The house and senate today sue
ceeded in untangling the parliament
tary snarl into which the suffrage
proposal had become involved

Senator Kelley and Representative
Flowers to father the successful

it's resolution from the house and
passing the house measure with a
minor amendment, which the house
concurred in by vote OF 73 to 19.
