Getting Breakfast,

| Recorder Broyles Thursday recon-
mended a special breakfast menu for
those husbands whose wives decline
to get up early and prepare the meal.
Sliced bananas and apples are the
ingredients.
He suggested this menu to E. L.
Perkins, Of l40 Julian Street. a rail-
road man, who was up for beating his
wife because she had failed TO cook
his breakfast. Perkins, however, told
the Recorder he hardly thought ba-
nanas and apples sufficient for a rail-

CHAINGANGS
ABOLISHED
BY BILL IN
SENATE

Sweeping changes in the prison sys-
tenn of the State of Georgia are pro-
vided by a bill introduced in the Sen
ate Thursday morning by Senator A.
H. Foster, of the Twenty seventh Dis
trlct
Senator Fosters bill. which he de-
clares meets with the approval of
senate leaders, contains the following
lmportan. provisions;
To provide for the inspection OF
all county jails.
To abolish the county chain
gang.
To provide an indeterminate
sentence in both felony and mis-
demeanor cases,
To arrange for the parole and
after care Of prisoners.
To define the meaning of and
disposition of habitual criminals.
To provide for a system of
grades, elassfioations and credits
of oonvicts while in the penitsn-
tiary.
To provide for the appointment
and compensation of wardsns
and guards for the Pentsntiary.
Endorsed by Reformers.
Senator Foster srareG shortly after
introducing his bill that in addition
to having the support Of influential
members of the Senate, the measure
has the backing of the Georgia PTS
on Reform Association. The bill, SEN
ator Foster stated. embodies the re-
suits Of the Investigations of the as
ISOLATION and Philip Weltner, and in
addition contains some ideas Of his
own.
Senator Foster declared that while
he expected that some amendments
would be made in the bill before it is
passed, he would concentrate his ef-
forts to retaining the wording of the
original bill in the section relating to
indeterminate sentences. This, he de-
clared, was the most needed reform
in Georgia prison methods.
The phrase ito abolish the county
Changing" in the caption of the bill,
is confusing, inasmuch as slight ref
erence is made TO it in the body of
the measure.
Senator Foster stated that his idea
was not 50 much to totally abolish
the changing system as to make 1t
impossible to work negroes and
whites together. He hopes, he says,
to abolish the mixed chaingangs and
segregate the races.
The sections of the bill set forth |
that the policy of the State shall here
after be to so deal with convicts that
their punishment may serve TO disci- !
pline them to right conceptions of
citizenship"
Board Members inspectors.
The burden of the inspection of
prisons and jails is placed upon the
State Prison Commission, which, de-
clares the bill, shall provide for quar-
terly visitation of all county ja!ls
and aid in their just. humane and
economic administration" The Com
mission shall make a report OF each |
visit to the Governor.
Instead OF the nxed sentence. Sen !
ator Fosters bill declares that when
any prisoner is convicted of a felony I
or misdemeanor the court shall pro-
nounce an iGdeterminate sentence.
The bill also impresses upon the
Prison Commission the necessity Of |

from the old and hardened offenders. |
One of the strong and unusual |
features OF the bill is a section pro- |
viding that all moneys earned by the |

PROFIT IN THE PARCEL
POST

An estimated profit of about
$50. 600, 900 from the operation
of the new parcel post system
for the year 1913 is proof to the
Philadelphia Record that "the
system is no longer to be deem
ed experimental" but is here
to stay" These figures are, of
course, as the. New York Times
reminds us, "only a claim. !"
For "the post office put it out of
its power to prove or even to
know the profits when it abolish
ed the parcel stamp and author
lied it use for letters. I" Yet we
read in The Times Washington
correspondence that the present
estimates show just twice the
profit that post officials had ex-
pected. This will be interesting
news to the railroads, which
contend that. they are entitled
to extra remuneration for carry
ing the mails on accounted the
operation of the new service,
and expect congress to give heed
to their demands at the coming
egular session. The Times
learns "from a reliable quartes. .
that even assuming that the
contention of the railroads was
correct, there still would have
been a good margin of profit al
the end of the calendar year 1913
after the payment of extra re-

The country 'hayseed" is a
favorite joke for the city papers
and the lmpecunious space writ
ers of the dailies loves to portray
the tiller of the soil as a man
who never saw such and knows
less. Were it not for the farm
ers, the receipts of the fair
would be mighty slim and he
does not make a holy show of
himself either, as the writer
tries TO make out. The pale
cadavers who write harmless,
souIless lies such as the above
to please simple folks like them
selves could not maEa a living on
a quarter section of the best land
in the country if it were donat-

stock and tools. So limited is
their reading and their power
of observation that they have
not learned that the American

Mrs Margaret Kidney, Of
Newark, N. j., assisted h e]
sister, 81 years old, in cooking
dinner, on her one hundredth
birthday, for relatives and
friends. Professor Irving
Fisher, of the chair of political
economy in Yale university,
wrote the century-old lady
asking how she had conducted
herself during her long life.
She replied that she had moth
ing to do with her great age.
that it was the work of Gcd
alone.
All of which reminds one of
the story, in the Lives Of the
English Chief Justice, :" of Lord
Hardwicke, who had gone into,
one f the shires TO hold term
of court. He found among those
summond for jury service James
Lamb, who gave his age as
ninty-two. The justic offere d
to excuse him, but Mr.. Lamb
insisted that he was mentally
and physically fit for the service
and, said that he never h d
shlrked a duty.
Lord Hardwicke, asked the
aged jurymah to tell how he
had conducted his life. James
Lamb said he had never drunk
a drop Of an intoxicaht in his
life; that he had abstained from
The use of tobacco in all forms;
that he had been careful of his
diet and had uniformly gone to
bed ats O'Clock at night a II d

The Judge delivered quite a
lecture to those present on the
vi ues of sobriety, regularity of
habits. and industry, and then
the call of the jury list proceeded
By and by the name of George
Lamb was called, He was a
brother of James and ninety six
years old. Lord Hardwicke
offered to excuse him, but the
juror insisted that he was per-
fectly fit to discharge the duties
of the position. He was then
asked to tell how he had lived.
The reply of the older brother
was in marked contrast to that
of James Lamb. He said he
had both smoked and chewed
tobacco for eighty years; had no
regular habits, and that for sixty
five years he had been too drunk
each night to know what time
he went to bed and that he rose
in the morning when lie fell
like it.
There are individuals an d
whole families who attain great
age, barring accidents, without
any apparent reason for having
done so. But the man or the
