Put It On Ice

When you have written letter red

est spot-some one who's done you an
underhand trick, some one who's
wounded your pride to the quick; try
to remember that writing abuse does
no more good than the hiss of a
goose; this is the meaning of all Of
your sass; You are a villlan-and
am an ass" Take up. your letter and
read 1t through twice; put II on ice
awhile, put 1t on ice! Maybe your
vile isn't much of acook; may be she'd
rather sit down with bunk. than to
go fussine around making pies dough.
nuts and cakes and things good to
your eyes; you are preparing a wither-
Ing speech, you are preparing To rear
up and preach, telling your wife Of
the beautiful things cooked by your
granny before she had wings; telling
your wife that her duty's to stuff
things 10 your tummy till 1t has
enough. When you went counting
that bausfrau OF yours, swearing you'd
love her while nature endures, did you
get down on your knee bones and rave:
Dearest, I'm needing drudge and a
slave! Come to my cottage and sweep,
cook and scrub! Clean up the dishes
and sweat at the tub!" Can the re-.
proaches you're planning To make; go
TO bakery when spelling for cake.

One fine morning last week Fed

Judge Newman has occupied tho
bench of the United States Court If
the Northern District of Georgia since
1886, and has held court in most of
the cities of Georgia. The lawyers,
watching his career, knew when the
SEVENTEEN birthday came, June %,
and a number of letters were sent
to him, friendly. congratulatory let
tiers, expressing the hope that he re-
main on the bench.
Not Ready to Quit.

have been enough to show me that !

in this respect, a judge is somewhat
different from a private citizen. A
judge owes it to the public to step
down and out when his usefulness
passes; a citizen, whose business Is
his own, and his own affair, can stay
on and make a mess of 1t, to nobody's
harm but his own.
But while he can, a man should
stick on the job"
Work. Judge Newman thinks, is
every mans function.
There Is a moral and a spirituAl
satisfaction in labor" he said, when
you know that you are doing it well.
Then there is physical we'll being also.
Retirement from part in the

Judge Newman was born June %,
1S43, in Knoxville, Tenn. When he
was II years old he enlisted in the
Second Tennessee Cavalry, Of the
Confederate Army. and the next year
was promoted to a lieutenancy. Ear
ly in 1863 he was wounded and cap
tured by the Federals, and later in
the year was exchanged. His career
as a soldier ended at the battle of
Jonesboro, Ga, in 1854, when a bull
let found his right arm, necessitat-
ing its removal.
After the war he located in At
lanta, became a lawyer, and from
1871 until 1883 was city attorney. In
1888 he received the appointment as
United States judge, and has held the
position now for 81 years.
