Lawyers Would Do
Away With Colonel

Atlanta, Georgia. = The entire
Georgia bar is interested in a
movement started by some of it's
members to stop the promiscuous
use of irrelevant titles in the
Cracker state. They want to "cut
out the colonels."
1t is suggested that such titles
as colonel, captain and Judge be
applied only to those who have
rightly earned them, on the battle
field or in military service in time
of peace, or on the bench. Such
a reform, if carried out. would be
epochmaking in It's small way.
From time immemorial it has been
the custom in Georgia particularly
in small communities, to call every
lawyer colonel after he has
reached middle age-except in the
event he wears whiskers, when he
is called Judge" instead. Many
of the gentlemen on whom these
titles have been thrust by usage
are far from desiring them, and
are really embarrassed by their use.
1t is they themselves who want
the custom abolished, The class
of people who covet such titles
without meriting them is said to
be today so small as to be negligi-
BILE. The type has passed who
used to sing, or think,
II want to be colonel,
"And with the colonies stand;
"A cockade on my hat
''And cocktail in nv hand"
Most of the spurious colonies of
today have not usurped their titles.
They have simply had them thrust
upon them by usage which they
depIore. In fact the leaders in the
movement are we'll known attor-
news whose friends have been for
years calling them "colonel.

What q Yawn Tells.

When children bite their nails this
often points to some digestive trouble.
50 do not scold your BARNS for this
nasty trick. but diet them very care
fully and consult a doctor If they seem
at all out of sorts. In older people the
habit often goes with a hasty temper,
which. in its turn. may be traced to q
bad digestion.
Constant. uncomfortable yawning
may sometimes point to q growth In
the nose and throat. The person can
not breathe properly. sc he is forced to
yawn. not by WEAKNESS. but in order
to draw more air into his lungs.
