TEMPERAMENT"


usually ambitious and talented young
fastener, has committed suicide by
jumping into the sea at Manhattan
Beach, after writing this message to
the world:
Women have killed me, because,
with all my temperament, have been
too shy ever to have any love. 1
have not had at any time girl who
loved me. l have never even kissed.
l want love-"
1t is most remarkable instance of
non-equipment for life, and you can
hardly blame Wallace for seeking fell
lowship down among the oysters of
the Atlantic.
High temperament usually proves
to be much of a curse to girl or boy,
but when it takes the line of shyness,
the climax of misfortunes is pretty
nearly reached. Fortunately, the
youth of high temperament is usual
ly far from shy as to anything, girls
in particular 1t must be truly awful
to be raging with temperament and
still be toe shy to kiss girl.
But we often near mothers proud
iy proclaim that their child is full
of temperament" with father stand
ing by in silence because convinced
that it is ''devilment" mother believ-
ing that temperament means latent
capacity to perform extraordinary
things. Of course, a child without
temperament is unfortunate, but
temperament uncontrolled is like I'M
controlled thirst for strong drink. 1t
is a stimulant which, over-developed,
means the breaking down of solidity
of character. With poise and self
control as balance to vigorous tenn
permanent, young man may be ex-
tremely well-equipped.

temperament that runs to love and is

New York Post Heartily Indorses the City Planning Exhibition Being
 Held There.

Especial interest attaches to the city planning exhibition from the fact that the probable ratification of the excess condemnation amendment will enlarge the possibilities before New York. Ex- cess condemnation has probably worked to best effect in Ohio, where Cincinnati and Toledo have entered upon large programs of city building;
 while Cleveland. as the current Survey records, has undertaken the first mu- nicipal experiment. in suburban plan- ming and housing" through acquisition of large tracts of land to be divided and sold in building lots for working mems houses. In many other ways the exhibition, which we owe to George McAneny and the Merchants associa- tion, should be highly stimulating. More than forty among the 200 Ameri- can cities participating, and 12 among the Canadian, have city planning com missions, while in Massachusetts, New Jersey and Pennsylvania helpful legis- lation has been enacted.

There was preaching at South School House Sunday, followed by Sunday School and Easter egg hunting by the little chil- dren, big children, old children, widows and widowers. One of our widows was leading a little boy around, but l don't think the little fellow found any eggs, he could not see anything but the one leading him around. From the amount of eggs gathered up looks like there must have been one gross of eggs raked in. Tod Henderson was walking around taking eggs away from the children and eat ing them and when we left he was begging his wife to go home, he was tired and hungry. 1 believe Tod can eat as much as Waldrop.

Another Farmer on Good
 Roads"
Editor of Argus:

Editor of Argus:
 notice in your paper of March 27th Congratulations to Jackson County" They've voted a $500, ,OOO.OO debt on them selves to build roads. Now Pm not a reader of the Argus, this was handed me by friend but agree with you in what you say about when Monroe county farmers wake up to the fact that the greatest tax we pay IS travelling over the bad roads. We hold our hands up in horror at the idea of Monroe county ln debt for necessity (roads) but we went in debt nearly S10O,000 more than was necessary for the luxury of a new court house, now we don't know what 1t costs us to get over these bad roads. There is no way by which 1t can be computed.
 |, as well as many others have to go five or six miles to town and instead of being able to take a load we've had to drag and worry to get one-ffth of a load to or from town and part of the time it was almost impossible to get along with an empty wagon; should we need a doctor in a hurry it is horrible to contem- plate the situation.
 Take 5000 bales of. cotton to be hauled to market, an average of seven miles, think that will be fair estimate. It can be hauled over a macadamised road at 1000 loads for $2.00 per load where it costs three times as much on an average or S600O.00.
 We don't know all these things and can't see them because we are not able to get an education in the country on account of the shortness of our school terms which are only one-half as long as they should be. Monroe county has about 40 districts and about 80 schools, when 40 would be ample if certain conditions were changed. We waste too much money and energy trying to have the country and town occupied by two races, one be- ing an inferior race in republic and trying to make a 3 1t. blanket cover 4 it. bed. We have to school the negro and 1t is at the expense largely, of the white man now and more here after. 1 offer two clippings from the Progressive Farmer, of Memphis, as a solution of the question. If we had our country filled up with intelligent white men they'd soon build the roads, even if they had to go in debt l daresay it is the white farm CTS in Jackson county who are doing that. 1 have no desire tC wrong the negro, he is not tC blame in the least for these con ditions, the white man is the boss.
