Special Delivery by Parcel Post.

Parcel post packages, when pro-
vided with the necessary stamps, will
in the future be delivered through

nouncen5ent to this effect is made by
Postmaster J. J.. Lafargue, following
the receipt Of an official notice from
the postoffice department at Wash
ington. Packages intended for inn
mediate delivery should be provided
either with the special delivery
stamp or an ordinary 10-cent stamp,

PALM BEACH, FLA, Jan. 29.--Vin-
son Walsh Mclean, the "$10O,0OO,000

much that he has prevailed upon his
parents to have two carloads of it
shipped to their home in Washington,
d. c.
Being the richest baby in the world,
Little WILSON'S slightest whim is always
humored by his worshiping parents.
And no expense ever is spared to guard
either the infants health or physical
welfare. A few weeks ago, when the
youngster developed a slight cold at his
Washington home, his parents hurried
ly chartered a special train and rushed
him to Palm Beach, where he has been
enjoying the mild weather ever since.
Baby Vinson is constantly in charge
of three trusted men, whose sole duties
consist of keeping their eyes on the
child at all times. They are his con-
slant nurses and guards on his daily
rides about the palm walks and when
he plays in the sand on the shore.

crop is to be a failure. that the
peach crop is to be failure-may
venture to hope that the spring
poetry crop likewise will be a fail
ure?
Atlanta. January 2S.
Anxious Inquirer" surely may ven-
ture, as far as he likes. There is no
quarantine against hope, particularly
when directed toward the failure of the
spring poetry crop!
Because of the extraordinary dill
gence of Georgia's various secretaries
of state, to whose hands the public land
records have been committed it is pos
sible in Georgia, as it is not possible in
many states, to make a complete abb
stract of any title. from the original
land grant down to the present time.
Notwithstanding the fact that ths
states capitol has been moved four or
five times. the records still are COM
plete, and in an excellent state of pres
ervation, moreover
1t seems rather strange, however,
that the various legislatures should be
willing tor these priceless documents
and records to go year after year I'M
protected of fire or destroying dust and
insects.
1t would not cost a very great deal 10
provide dust and fireproof cases for the
records-or better still, it would not
entail an unheard of expense for Geor-
gia to follow Iowa's recent example and
have duplicate and duly authenticated
copies of the records made, and incase
the ancient records in fire and dust
proof cases, using the copies for the
purpose of tracing and abstracting
titles to their fountainhead.
Judge w. f. George, of Vienna, pre-
siding magistrate of the Cerdele SUI
perlor circuit. has set at rest the ru-
NOR that he will resign shortly, by
saying that he will do nothing of the
kind.
The judge has found that his private
business affairs will rot interfere with
his judicial duties. as he feared at one
time they might. and there never was
any other reason why he thought Of
quitting the bench.
The lawyers of his circuit generally
are greatly pleased at his decision, not
l only because he is popular and approv-
ed as a judge, but because they did
not incline at all to have a contest for
the succession precipitated at this
time.
Had Judge George resigned, there
would have been a situation quite az
| badly mixed as was the one in the
Rome circuit recently.
Editor J. Lindsay Johnson, of The
Rome Tribune Herald. likely will ask
for the consul generalship either to
Shanghai or Yokohama, under Presi-
dent Wilson.
! Colonel Johnson certainly has a claim
to the position. or any other one he
might ask, insofar as loyalty to tho
cause of Democracy and Wilson is con-
| cerned. He was one of the very first
to take off his coat for Wilson, and he
never quit until the former Georgian
was nominated I'm Baltimore
| The Georgia editor did not concern
| himself so much with the lighting end
of the business after the convention. as

gone conclusion, when the convention
| adjourned in the Monumental City.
If Colonel Johnson does apply for
either Shanghai or Yokohama he will
be backed by legion of Georgians, who

honor the new administration may con-
| fer upon him.
