The Message of Spring.
By Rose N. Mehrbach.

"
When the wild rose entwines round the
old cottage door,
And the sweet breath of violets greets
us once more,
And all of earth's beauties in harmony
sing
1t is then we bid welcome, the beauti-
full Spring.
When the world seems brighter than
ever before
And tasks seem lighter, and strife
no.more
And our lives take on a brighter hue
And Hope and Love leads the World
anew.
When the Jessamine haughtily bends
her head,
And the pansy creeps from its leafy
bed,
And all of Gods Flowers rejoice as One,
So thankful for the light and sun;
When trees and shrubs their lovely
beauty give
To decorate this world of ours
To brighten hearts, with radient
thoughts,
With buds, and happy Spring-time
flowers.
And the Spring in her Heavenly glory,
Thrills the earth with its splendor
and song,
Sending forth It's message of happiness,
Bidding the flowers to brighten the
throng.
When the skies are blue and all Nature
sings,
And the Whippoorwill's song seems
ar ode of Spring;
We know by these emblems that Spring
Time is here
With it's glories and blossoms of life
and good cheer.
When Natures charms their graces
lend
To brighten hearts so weary,
The sun seems loftier, Life seems blest
With Love and Light so cherry.
So welcome heavenly Spring-Time
Enfold US in your world
And gladden. our lives with the mes
sage of Spring
With your brightness and blessings
unfurled.

Mark Natchez Trace.

At. present one of the state
works of the D. A. R. in Missis-
sippi is the marking of historical
spots. Chief of these is the
Natchez Trace. This famous
old road touches or is contiguous
to various towns and villages in
the state, and the Daughters
have decided to place a boulder
every year until the Trace is
properly marked. Kosciusko is
one of these spots. and the bould-
err will be placed here this year.
Several weeks ago the state re-
gent, Mrs. A. F. Fox, closed the
deal for this boulder with D. H.
Stinson of West Point, and it is
now ready for the inscription.
The unwilling will take place
April 30. The people of
that city are very much interest
ed and enthused over the ap-
preaching ceremonies. Among
those invited will be Gov. Brewer
several congressman, members
of, the state historical society and
other distinguished gentlemen.
Judge Richard Reed of the SUI
preme court, a man widely vers-
ed in Mississippi history, will de-
liver the address. Altogether
the occasion promises to be one
of the notable events of the year.
Any officer or member of Ma
ry Stuart Chapter who wishes to
attend the unwilling, please mott
fly Mrs. Jones so that names
may be sent on to Committee at
Kosciusko.

Perils Of the Aviator.

During one of the aviation
meets a young woman went
through the hangers under the
guidance of a mechanic. After
asking all the usual foolish ques-
tons that aviators and the as
sistants have to answer during a
tour of inspection, she wanted to
know: But what if your engine
stops in the air-what happens?
Can't you come DOWN." That's
exactly the trouble" responded
the willing guide. There Ale
now three men up in the air in
France with their engines stop
ped. They can't get down and
are starving to death. "-Ex.

Newspaper Publishers
Joys Not Unmixed

One of the pleasing features
of publishing a country news
paper is the variety of things
he meets with. For instance;
you publish an item for which
one man will compliment you;
another will cuss you blind for
the same item. Then you meet
a man who diffuses sunshine and
still another who would, if he
could, keep you in a perpetual
state of gloom. It's great. The
only wonder is that there aren't
more fellows at it. Another in
ducement is that it is a money
making proposition. The surest
on earth. All newspaper pub
fishers are wealthy. You never
heard of one being in the poor
house or going hungry. Meth
er do they ever go to jail (the
Lord only knows how they keep
OUT Some go to congress and
some to the dogs; now and then
one gets a postofice but you
never saw one who failed to
stand up for his town. his coun-
try and his State. Their papers
are often referred to as dirty
sheets, but every man in the
community asks favors of them
at sometime, and they always
get them, too. It's funnier than
a circus. = Brookhaven Leader.

The Mississippi State Board of
health is making a vigorous fight
to get the State in a good sani-
tary condition before the warm
weather comes. The board
urges that all towns and individ-
uals do all they can to prevent
the appearance of the fly and
mosquito. These are our worst
enemies. They spread malaria
and fevers and by their extermi-
nation the health of the people
will be protected and preserved.

Gold Medal for Girl or Boy.

A gold medal to the school
boy or girl between the ages OF
10 and Is who writes the best
composition, not to exceed 800
words on the repair and main
tenance of earth roads, is to be
awarded by Logan Waller Page.
Director, Office of Public Roads,
United States Department OF
Agriculture, Washington, D. c.
All compositions must be SUBJ
mitted to Mr.. Page before May
Is, 1913, and the medal will be
awarded as soon thereafter as
the compositions can be graded.
The composition may be based
on knowledge gained from books
or other sources, but no quota
tions should be made.
After many years. experience
in dealing with the public road
situation of the country, it is
Mr., Pages belief that ignorance
on the subject of repair and
maintenance of roads is as much
the cause of their bad condition
as any one factor. 1t is expect
ed that the competition will bring
about a better understanding of
the subject of repair and main
tenance in the rural districts.
Many children living in the
rural districts have experienced
the disadvantages of roads made
impossible through a lack of
proper maintenance and it is ex-
pected that their interest in the
competition will stimulate great
er interest among the parents.
Bad roads have prevented many
children from obtaining a proper
education and have even pre-
vented doctors from reaching
the side of rural patients in time
to save their lives.
Any child between the ages
mentioned, attending a country
school, may compete. Only one
side of the paper must be writ
ten on; each page should be
numbered; the name. age, and
address of the writer, and the
name and location of the school
which he or she is attending
must be plainly written at the
top of the first page. The an
nouncement of the competition
has been sent to the s%uperinten-
dents of schools in the rural dis
tricts. No further information
can be obtained from the Office
of Pulic Roads. This announce
ment should be plain to every
pne and all children will thus
start on a basis of equality.

Firemen'S Mascot Is
Killed Making Run
'Blitz,' Gainesville Departments
Prize Fox Terrier, Buried in
Flower-Decked Grave.

CARTERSVILLE, July 12-Carters-
ville's fire department Is just now
mourning the death OF one of its most
active and interesting members.
This member was the departments
dog "Blitz." a Cumely little fox ter
rier which has practically grown up
with the department.
Never was there a fire that Bitz,
at the tap OF the gong, didn't hop to
the drivers seat and on his launches
ride to the blaze and then he found
duty's call in keeping watch over the
hose wagon and paraphernalia. The
boys had trained him to go for the
mail or go to store for cigars, to-
bacCo or ice cream. When hungry
he would go to the meat market and
bark for his regular meal until he
got It.
In a grave with flowers on it near
the rear door of the engine house
rests his body
Wednesday morning, while on the
run to a fire, the hoof of one of the
horses knocked him down and the
wagon wheels passed over his body.

IN
ATHENS To SEE
STATE SCHOOLS
Chamber Of Commerce and Citi-
zens Unite in Entertaining Leg
isIature at Barbecue.

ATHENS, July 12-The Georgia
Senate and House Of Representatives,
several hundred strong, invaded Ath-
ems day and were entertained elab-
Orately by the Chamber of Commerce
and Athens citizens in general who
invited both houses to come to Geor-
gia's Classic City for a view of the
States educational property here.
Practically every branch of the
State University-that is, old Frank
lin College, the Agricultural College
and the Normal School-are asking
for increased appropriations this year,
and It was sought in this trip of the
Assemblies to Athens to have the
lawmakers see for themselves what
is being done here and what is really
needed.
President Randolph Anderson. of
the Senate, and Speaker w. H Bur
well, Of the House, both expressed
themselves as favoring an increase in
the appropriations to the States edu-
cational institutions, especially those
that stand for advanced education,
but this is well nigh impossible I'M
der the present tax situation.
The body was the guest Of the Ath-
ems Chamber Of Commerce from the
time it boarded the special in Atlanta
until it reached the Union depot to-
night. On arriving here at II o'clock
the State Normal School plant was
visited At Tibbets Park, with sew
eral thousand Athenians, an old
fashioned Georgia barbecue was held.
At o'clock the University and the
State College Of Agriculture we're Wis
tied and at the special train re-
turned to Atlanta.

ATHENS, July 12.-The County
School Superintendents Of the State,
who have been in conference ses-
sion here this week, finished their
program Friday and adjourned. More
than so counties were represented.
1t is expected that practically every
superintendent in the State will be

meeting of this kind ever held in
Georgia.
The sessions were addressed by
State superintendent NJ. L. Britain,
Miss Celeste Parrish, OF Atlanta; Pro-
fessor Lawson, Of Augusta; w. K.
Tate, Of South Carolina, and other
well known educators.
The superintendent adopted a
resolution directed to the Georgia
Legislature. asking that a constitu-
tional amendment be submitted to
the people of Georgia that every
county be required to levy a tax Of
one mill for school purposes only and
that this be increased to five mills If
so recommended by a county board
of education. Twenty six counties in
the State already levy similar tax.

Ask Government to
Drain Large Swamp
County Farmers Seek to
Reclaim Wide Area of Land
Now Useless.

DALTON, July 12.-The farmers of
the east side of Whitfield County are
deeply interested in a project to drain
Coahulla Creek and reclaim thou
sands Of acres OF farm lands rem
dered practically useless now because
Of the fact that they are inundated
most of the year.
Recently they took the matter up
with the United States Government,
and c. l.. Foster has received a letter
from S. II. McCroy engineer in charge
of drainage Investigations, that ]. V.
Phillips, drainage engineer stationed
at Savannah, would be sent here to
make the preliminary examination.
The creek is filed with logs and
other rubbish, causing water to over
flow and back up over farm lands
whenever a rain of any consequence
falls
