who had shouted for him when he
was proclaimed a triumphant con
queror and a dictator.
This was the greatest triumph"
in Rome about IS years before the
birth OF Christ
About 1745 years after the birth
of Christ. Benjamin Franklin un-
dertook the greatest triumph Of
history in the small city Of Phila-
delphia. He pulled OF his coat
and walked out into the street.
Then he took hold OF the handles
OF a wheelbarrow and rolled it
through the street. Nobody
shouted. Some laughed. He came
back with the wheelharrow in
about half an hour Taking a
bundle of paper from it, he went
inside Then he printed a news
paper.
This was one way he had Of be
coming triumphant, but it was I,ut
the only one After printing the
newspaper. he washed the ink off
his hands and began to expert
ment with another one of his
ideas
He wanted to catch a jar full
OF lightning. In lis newspaper
he tried 20 persuaSa his readers
TO use their common sense. He
tried 10 show them that common
sense is always triumphant when
it is really used. They thought
he had lost his own common sense

A Merger That Is in the Intecest
of PROGRESS

The merging of the Atlanta College Physicians and Sur
and the Atlanta Medical College great and amp
fed Atlanta Medical College of arreachng impor
lance Atlanta and the boards of management two in
situations be congratulated they effected
soidation satisfactory
Not only will the colleges themselves tremendously
by joining hands but the graduates thereof enjoy an i'm
mediate standing in the medical profession that heretofore
has been impossible for either institution to give them
The college has been made eligible to membership in
the American Medical Association which gives all graduates
the right practice medicine anywhere in the world
Plans for the necessarily enlarged quarters the new in
stuon ambitious but there every suspect that
they will be carried successful conclusion to that
end The Georgian feels all Atlanta will cordially cooperate
with the gentleman having those plans in charge

when he tried to catch lightning
in a jar. But he did it, He finally
got enough lightning ont of
cloud down the string Of a kite TO
fill a jar, so that he could get
sparks out Of the jar. When he
had done this, il was the great
est triumph in history He had
shown that electricity and light
ming are the same; that cleo
triclty is universal force"
which can be used in common
sense ways.
This was q triumph in Phila-
delphia about A. d, 1852
julius Caesar was born 100
years before Christ. He was born
in a great family It was the
"illustrious Julian gems" Gems"
means family. A gentleman
then did not have to be gentle"
He did have to be born in an IL
lustrious gems" Caesar did not
think it ungentlemanly to have
the hands of his prisoners cut Oft
when he was not pleased with
them after he had conquered
them. He despised people who
had nothing but common sense.
He was a great genius and one Of
the greatest conquerors of any
age He conquered his own Coun-
try. Before he was stabbed to
death in Rome, March Is, A B.

c., he had destroyed the freedom
of the greatest republic of the
world After his time. Romans
who could not live unless they
were free stabbed themselves.
No Illustrious Forefathers.
Franklin did not belong to an
ilustrious gems" When he was
born in Boston in 1906. he was
fifteenth Of the seven ;oen chill
dren of Josiah Franklin. Josiah
was a poor candIemaker. Poor as
he was. he gave his children the
key of all knowledge" He taught
them to spell and showed them
how TO learn 10 read. In 1890.
when Benjamin Franklin lied, he
had done more than any other
man to make his country free and
great His last act was TO sign a
paper to make the world freer.
But his greatest triumph was in
discovering the use of common
sense. Spell out or read as much
as you can use from the best
book YOU can get Then do not
stop to talk about it. Get your
common sense to work and see
what you can do with what you
have learned. Then go on that
way, learning and using your own
common sense as long as you
live. That is the Franklin way to
win tTiuuphs

wv TO show the meaning of
the greatest triumph in
life. he first comhed his hair care
fully over a bald spot. He was so
careful about this bald spot that
1t is said he always scratched his
head with one finger after comb
ing his hair down over it.
Perhaps this is lie. But what
he did next was TO put a wreath
Of laurel leaves on his head. He
then put on a costly purple Dor
dered cloak. Taking a branch Of
laurel In one hand and scepter in
the other, he passed out the street
door and mounted a car drawn by
four horses. Then he drove
through the streets, and listened
to the crowd that shouted for him.
While they were shouting. people
in the crowd watched the long
line Of Caesars soldiers behind
the car and OF his prisoners in
front Of il

An all-night camp and hike was the

In accordance with the traditions of
the troop to take as much of their
equipment as possible from the native
woods, the members carried no tents
and only blankets and ponchos. Cook
ing equipment was carried. but divided
up among different members of the
troop. After a hike of several miles
camp was made near sandy Spring. a
lean-to was constructed as protection
against the weather. a huge Campnre
built. and supper prepared.
After an hour or two of recreation
and story telling. sentinels were posted.
The boys took turns in guarding the
camp, and relieved each other ali night
long at intervals Next morning break
fast was cooked and the boys then
spent several hours in the woods carry.
ing out different features of Boy scout
work. At the campfire several of the
boys showed considerable ability as
