BUCK BREAKS NECK
AT ZOO PURSUING
FROLICSOME MATE

The beautiful little Virginia Goe in the
Grant park deer run has sadder eyes than
ever today. This morning the fine big
buck broke his neck And as Mother Eve
caused the downfall Of Adam, so Vir-
ginia had tempted her mate to his death,
The deer in the park have fine run,
inclosed by a wire fence. But the range
was not wide enough for the wistful
doe She decided one day to jump
through the fence and explore the hills.
The first effort proved so easy that II
became a habit with her. The buck
was not 80 bold, but stood on the inside
with longing in his eye as he watched
her scamper away through the woods.
The air was so fine this morning that
he was more reckless. The doe jumped
at hole in the fence and the wire was
so weak that it gave way, and she was
free. The buck ran toward the opening
to follow.
He was all through but his spreading
antlers They caught in the wire above,
and, swapping back his head, broke his
neck.
The only consolat ion Dan Carey. the
manager of parks, has, is the fine vent
son, for the buck is fat and sleek.

which is something to be proud of.
Then another thing the wonderful

grounds of the school, long ago
made lovely by nature. To the
back of the school house is a lovely
pine grove, where the girls often
stroll to eat their lunches and gig

all the schools had less fussing and
more fresh air rooms, gymnastics
and beautiful Fairgrounds, where
you can sit down and eat, without
a stern teacher standing guard to
see il you laugh correctly, they'd
get along much better While there
may be a great deal in laughing,
which the w. S. girls know full
we'll we aren't under such rigid
rules. Understand. we all study
hard and know our lessons, but
when the time comes for fun we
use it in the best way-"double and

Louise CheWning Describes Runaway of Horse
FIFTH GRADE GIRL WINS

A fifth grade girl wins the prize to-
day in the competition among the
youthful reporters for The Georgian
She is Louise Chewing, of Formwalt
Street school Her STORY" follows
Last Friday at big recess the
boys were in the road playing foot
ball. In the midst of it all some
one yelled, Look out" and every
body turned TO look. Coming up
the street as hard as it could go
was a horse. He had something
dragging behind him that looked
like piece of shaft torn from the
wagon which he was drawing.
One boy not seeing the cause of
the excitement was almost run over
by the horse.
Some Of the children were badly
frightened. but soon forgot their
fright in the enjoyment of their
playtime.
There are two other contributions
that deserve to be printed. The first
by Pauline Cowart, of 81 North Jack
son street. follows:
The Atlanta Georgian is a very
clean. nice and refined paper 1t
carries all of the news.
I have read all four daily papers
and have decided that The Geor-
gian is the best.
The stories printed on the maya
zine page are especially good Mutt
and Jeff, after arriving in Turkey,
look very nice, indeed, in their
Turkish dress.
The Comic Page is also very good.
Hope you will soon have your
Sunday paper out. 1 agree with
Judge Broyles that Happy Hooli-
gan and the Katzenjammer Kids
will be welcomed back, for we were
all very sorry to have them leave.
/ hope that The Georgian will
still continue to stay as good as it
ls now. as I like 1t very much.
The other is by Lois Werner, of Al!

TWO FIRE INSURANCE
COMPANIES OPERATE
WITHOUT AUTHORITY

The state insurance department has
issued a statement declaring that the
Nassau Fire Insurance Company of
New York and the Equitable Fire of
Wilmington, Del, are unlicensed to do
business in the state of Georgia, and
that the department specifically de-
clines to assume any responsibility for
the activity of either within the state.
The first named company has been
operating in the vicinity of Savannah,
and the other has been writing consid-
cradle rural business around Powder
Springs.
These two concerns purport to write
business direct from their home offices
and pay no fees or taxes to the state.
Under the laws of Georgia they are
writing business Illegally.

Anent ZINC Ointment

Dear Miss Doom:
viii you kindly tell me through
your valuable column how to make
zinc ointment? / need so much for
my baby, who Is troubled with skin
eruptlons, and get so little at the
drug store for ten cents.
Also, can you tell me what is on
the popcorn sold in various stores?
1t is a sort of syrup. 1 will look
anxiously for reply in your paper.
MRS. M. K.
One who knows tells me that 1t
will be to your advantage to buy
the zinc ointment at Wholesale It
comes in fve-pound tins, and will
be cheaper than that you could
make it at home. He also tells me
that it will not be easy to make the
ointment at home, if you have not
the proper facilities. However,
here Is his recipe:
Ointment of zinc oxide.
Zinc oxide, 80 grains.
Benzoinated lard. 800 grains.
Sift the zinc oxide through me-
dunn sieve upon the surface of the
benzoinated lard, previously melted,
and Incorporate it by stirring, which
Is to be continued until the ONT
ment Is cool. I.

TIE IMPORTANCE OF WISELY CHOOSING
BOOKS FOR VERY LITTLE PEOPLE

J can hardly exaggerate the inn
portance of a wise choice OF books
Tor very little people. The older child,
while greatly at the mercy of our
older tastes, yet develops as time
goes on, from outside and other In
nuences, a kind of taste of his own;
but the little child can do nothing
but accept what ii given 1t.
And what do We give it? There
were never so many beautiful pic
ture books" to select from and never
80 many unbeautiful ones Crude de-
4igp, crude color, grotesque and I'M
lovely forms! You have only to look
on most Christmas counters to see
these in appalling numbers. These,
mind you, are. books for little children
who are at the most impressionable
age, and who are receiving their first
and, psychologistsa$ ell us, their most
lasting impressions. And then, when
one thinks what some of these most
tieting impressions arel ~
The crude-colored comic sheets OF

ri ISN'T NECESSARY ALWAYS TO
BUY EXPENSIVE CHRISTMAS GIFTS

These little ideas may appeal to The
woman who wants to give something
really different"
On a former Christmas one of Phil
adelphia's best known stationers ex-
hibited some Christmas gifts which
can be easily copied at home at a
minimum expenditure. These were
quills, gaily colored, red and green,
with brass holders, such as appear on
the wooden penholders, slipped over
she ends. In most places good sized
goose quilts can be procured for moth
ang through the courtesy Of a friendly
butcher, and when dyed a bright
color they are very attractive addi-
rion to any desk, says the Woman's
Home Companion.
Where every cent is to be consid-
cred these pens are almost as destr-
able IL the holder is omitted and the
quilts themselves are cut into the old
fashioned quill pen. Almost every
old inhabitant knows how to shape
these pens but even an amateur can
cut one after studying the shape Of
the heavy steel pens Such things

selected things which could be used in

way. The list was as follows: Cal
endar, medicine glass cover, sachet,
small book, egg cozy, handkerchief,
tiny puzzle. letter opener, Japanese
water flowers, st. Anthony (for find
ing lost things), some tiny cards for
solitaire, and some Japanese rice
cakes. Arranged in the order In
which they were TO be opened, each
package had a note or verse attached
and it's special place in the days rou-

con finger bowl, and the rice cakes for
