DAY IS

ed when he brought home his pay
at $3.50 Saturday night. But all is to
be changed and If a campaign just
started is successful. a day will be
set apart every year for me "old
man. and called Fathers Day"
1t will probably be a Sunday, as
Moathers' Day is now, and the idea
is to have II set one month after
Mothers Day. On this day the head
Of the family will probably be bored
to death listening to sermons by
| other fathers in the pulpit, and he
will probably have to wear a stiff
shirt and collar all day when soft
one would be more comfortable.
There must be some slight show
of celebrating the day-a distinctive
flower to be worn, special music and
preaching at the churches, a little
extra effort on the part of mother
and the older children. The VIII tie
carnation is now worn everywhere
to celebrate Mothers Day.
No doubt the idea is really a good
one. and no doubt too, that father has
long been neglected institution.

Father is really the most import

Blauvelt. If it were not for him,
there would be no mother and no
nome, His work is probably prosaic
and commonplace, but his best efforts
go to provide the 'sinews of war that
keep the home alive.
Probably he does not star in the
home circle--more than likely he
slips into his chair in the corner,
tired and unobtruslve. when he comes
home In the evening. Maybe he is
cross. and careless in the little
things. But we should not forget
his long hours of work, and his fight
to provide for his family with the
best he has in him. /, for one, be.

consideration as mother is, and am
going to do my best to see that he

DEATHS AT THIRTY-FiVE. WHEN
VICTIMS SHOULD LIVE TO
EIGHTY DISCUSSED

In a speech before the life insur-
ance presidents at their annual meet
ing in the Astor Hotel, William T.
White, Minister Of Finance in Can
adp, declared that one of the insur-
ance and medical problems of today
is. why do men break down in
health at thirty-fve, when they
should live to be seyenty-five years
scld?" Professor William H. Taft, for
merly President, was also a speaker
and touched on federal supervision
of insurance companies. There were
many other speakers, prominent in
the insurance circles of the country.
Mr.. White said in part

decreased the death rate so far as
children are concerned they have not
done so with men more than forty
years old. Men have been breaking

who ought to have lived to seventy

this question is to play and sleep

FARMING TRADE
MUST Be LEARNED
PROF. sPILLMAN, AN EXPERT,
ISSUES WARNING TO CITY
REARED MEN

Prof. William J. Spillman, chief
Of the office OF farm management, OF
the department of agriculture, warns
city men that unless they have been
reared on the farm and know some
thing about farming the chances for
success in that line are very slim.
The young man in the city who
has a hankering for farming should
hire himself out as a farm laborer
Tor two or three years." said Prof.
Spillman. HE should select a COM
munity in which farming is being
conducted successfully. If he is a
good man he can get $50 a month and
his board and lodging. He can cIothe
himself and buy little .ncidentals for
80 per month. The remaining 500
| must be deposited in the best bank
in the nearest town. After he has
deposited his savings ic"ularly for
"A year or more the bankC Wal b@"l
to take notice of him. Before long
he will offer to lend him money TO
rent and equip farm OF mis- own.
The young man who starts in this
way will rent only a small farm, say
fifty acres, at first. Within a year
or two, by hard work and intelligent
management, he will have repaid the
loan and added to his savings suf-
ficiently to justify him in renting d
larger area. A little later he will be
hiring farm labor and will own his
place"
Prof. Spillman advises would-be
farmers to avoid the mistake Of
largely increasing particular crop
following season OF very Ugh
prices. He displayed little carl
showing the size and price of the p,
tato crop during the past ten years.
you will observe" he said, that
the price received for potatoes is reg
ulated absolutely by the demand.
Every year that the crop is over
planted the price is low, unless it
happens to be bad year for pcta.
toes.
Men who know nothing about live
stock raising frequently make the
mistake by thinking they can get
rich quick by purchasing high grade
animals and disposing of their off
spring at fancy prices. They must
raise fine colts and calves, but until
they have built up rGputat ions as
stock raisers they will be disappoint-
ed in the financial returns. Because
a man buys 81 900 COW it does not
follow that he will get $500 for every
calf. He must first make a name for
himself as a breeder"

Gives Snake And SIS
for Old Blind Horse

Cordele, July IL. "A rattle
snake and SIS for a blind horse
was a very singular trade yes
terday between Dave Jenkins, a
negro farmer, and Jack Taylor.
a local horse trader. The snake
was a monster rattler and was
captured alive by Jenkins on his
farm Saturday morning. The
negro brought it to the city in
an effort to sell it and met up
with Taylor, who offered him a
blind horse for the rattler and
SIS. The deal was turned at once.
and the negro proudly led his
blind horse off, while Taylor sold
the snake to a blacksmith. The
snakes last owner, desiring to
experiment a little, put it under

EMPIRE LIFE
INSURANCE CO.

Atlanta, July 12-Thousands of
policy holders in Georgia and the
South in the Empire Life Insur-
ance company of Atlanta will be
gratified to learn that the insur-
ance department of Georgia has
declared the company to be IN per-
fectly solvent condition.
Several days ago a petition was
filed in Atlanta alleging that the
company was insolvent and asking
a receiver. The lawyers in the
case we're supposed to be acting
for James Il. Brown, of Canton,
Ca, a stockholder.
w. w. Reid, president of the
company, in statement to the In
surance Field, stated today that
the petition is not taken with any
seriousness by the officers of the
company, owing to the fact that
the allegations are so distorted as
to eliminate any element of real
truth.
"Particularly so, "said Mr.. Reid
is this true of the statements made
about myself in the sale of stock
to Mr.. Brown. Heretofore Mr..
Brown has always been on the
best of terms with US and express
ed himself both in person and in
writing as we'll satisfied with his
investment. 1t would therefore APP
pear that the filing of the petition
is more in the light of malicious
persecution agitated probably by
other parties with interest to gain
"Our last statement with the
state insurance department shows
us in perfectly solvent condition.
1t must be remembered that the
figures given were not made by

against numerous insurance COM
panies recently, mostly by dis
gruntled stock holders, and many
on the flimsiest of pretexts, and

that these suits seem to be filed
now at the whim of almost any one.

Find Body Of Drowned
Unidentified Man

Savannah, July IL. The body
of an unidentified man was found
floating in the Savannah river
early yesterday morning by a
Waterman on the Seaboard Air
Line Railroad bridge just above
Savannah and the report was
made to police headquarters by
him. The body was so badly
decomposed that it had to be
buried Immediately without any
papers or marks on it to give a
clue to the Identity.
DR.. H. Y. Right6n, the coro.
nor, was notified and he viewed
the remains on the bank of the
river where it had been towed
ashore. 1t gave the cause of the
death as accidental drowning.
He stated that he gave orders to
have the body buried. and in all
probability the man had been
drowned for three or four days.
AS near as could be ascertain
ed from the condition of it there
were no marks of violence on the
body to show that the man might
have been knocked unconscious
from a blow and then thrown
into the river.

good times here, too. One day we
buggied out to Uncle Ned's and went
out to the back lot, where we baseball

We snsaked up into the attic and Foker-

LET US MAKE. .THlsA GOOD LOOKING TOWN.
Jeweler and Optometris

If every man who reads this-and
every woman, too-would make it his or
her business, the next hour he or she
has, to look around the home premises
and see how they could be fixed up to
look better it would be a great thing
for this town. 1t might not induce
people to do any more than rake up
the sticks that are lying around. That
maybe while raking up the loose leaves
you would find there is a lose board
in the sidewalk, broken picket in the
fence, that the corner of the porch has
sagged or that the front steps need a
new plank in them. And, as you would
want to make complete job of it, you
wonld see that these repairs are made.
Perhaps new curtains are needed at the
front windows. And the inside of the
house is quite as important as the OUT
side-is more important, for it is on the
inside you live and where visitors get
their real impression of you and of the
town. Maybe before you get through,
if you will really look about you, there
will be several things that can be made
vastly better with the aid of few
boards or nails or little varnish or d
small expenditure of money, Collec-
lively the effect on this town will be
great, There is no economy in letting
things run down and putting repairs off.
A house that needs repairs is going
down hill; and house that is going
down hill is losing value-yalue both in
money and comfort. Let's make this a
better looking town; and let's begin,
like charity, at home.
