THE BAREFOOT BOY WITH CHEEK
OF TAN

The barefoot boy is with us. In
of the agonies of the ground itch and
demonstrations of the hookworm,
the early morning sees him astir, go
ing on his way, with merry whistle
tunes, and turned up pantalOons. y
His whistled tunes are good for the
soul. They speak of summer, and
woodland ways, and dew-wet morn
ings. The birdsongs are no more
blithesome, even if more tuneful, and
there is something sturdy in the very
way the barefoot boys wing down the
path to the reed-fringed bayous.
Summer is the playtime. All the
year, over the desk the men of tomor-
row have been cunning lessons of
men and methods and manners. OF
nations, and needs and notions.
But now summer calls. Mother Ma
ture smiles largely upon them, and
down by-paths they go. to sport with
glad spirits of the out-of-doors.
Early swims in the bayous bring
1usty appetites, and long days with
ball and bat, bring dreamless slum-
Der at night.
! Blessings on thee, little man,
| Barefooted boy, with cheek of tan"
The scene was made for you. With
/ out you and your whistled tunes it
! would be an unfinished picture-a
picture with the very heart of summer
left out.
May your days be full of happiness;
your early morning swim bring you
health and happiness, and your long
happy, carefree summer days, dream
less sleep, to fit you for the worlds
work, OF which there is so much be-
fore you in the years to come.
| Make the most of summer days,
bayou and woodland ways, for life
lurkes just around the corner, wait
ing to put you into harness. For
there is work to do, and the barefoot
boys of today are the strong, sturdy
men of affairs of the morrow.-Pensa-

Spartan courage saved the land from
desolation and it was soon smiling

DOES POETIC GENIUS SHUN THE
PALACE

Someone has written that poetry
shuns palaces. Perhaps it was writ
ten after perusing some of the master
full productions of Harry Floyd, or,
perhaps, Willis Powell's soul-stirring
ditty, in which he tells us that the
"pollywog pinkled so pale"
1t is true that the howell has been
the birthplace of a great deal of the
poetry that is considered the best gift
of the ages-such as that which flow
ed from the pen of Shakespeare and
Burns, but true genius is no respector
Of persons and is entirely democratic
in it's taste, and Is born in o palace
one day and in a howell the next.
Mr.. Ira Chamberlain, showing that
poetry does not "shun a palace" says
through the New York World that the
world affords abundant proof.
He tells us that David, the Hebrew
king, was one of the worlds great
poets.
julius Caesar-the uncrowned king
composed a number of poems, and
those writings are poetic gems that
carry with them beauty and merit.
Nero wrote poetry. He composed
the lyric poem, SHACK of Troy" and
sang his own production from the roof
of his palace.
The lyric poet Catullus-the beauty
and sweetness of whose verses have
rarely been excelled-kept two mag
nificent villas and possessed the leis-
ure and wealth to indulge in the gay
and expensive pleasures of the Ro-
man capital. He was of patrician
blood.
Ovid, Virgil and Horace-three
names that adorn the golden age OF
Roman literature-were friends anC
companions of the Emperor Augustus
and lived much of their time in the
palace of the Caesars. Virgil was
abundantly supplied with wealth. OVID
was also a friend and confidant Of
Caesar. He possessed wealth and
rank and vast store of learning thai
! can be accounted for only upon the
ground that he was of the patriciar
order. He was the most learned mar
of his time.
Mr. Chamberlain tells us that poe
try is the product of genius; that il
is born in the patrician the same a:
in the plebian. To say that poetry
shuns palaces is to say more thar
history will warrant.
We must all agree with Mr.. Cham
berlain, and while it does not 'shuI
palaces" we are all sincerely prout
that it does not feel out of place ii
huts.

The editorial boom for Frank Mayes
for governor is over. And Mayes is
now speaking his frank opinions.
Among other things, that Harris of

chief reactionaries.-St Petersburg
Times. oEm
We haven't a word to say about the
"boom." Brother Straub, with our
other friends and some of our enc
mics, have always had monopoly on
that topic. But right here we want to
deny absolutely that Mayes ever char
acterized Brother Harris. Lambright,
and Jordan as reactionaries They
themselves may think they are reac-
tionaries, but we refuse to believe it.

POWELL AT HIS WORST

serious charge against Willis Powell
of the Clearwater Sun. 1t charges him
with the authorship of the following:
"The film fam Topped from the

BUSINESS MANAGEMENT OF
NEWSPAPERS

Some of the biggest newspapers in
the country, especially two of the
Chicago dailies, thought to be the
most successful, it has been ascer-
tanned were losing propositions for
years, and finally went to the wall
loaded down with debt.
Mr.. Louis Wiley, business manager
of the New York Times, says that the
best business management cannot
make poor newspaper successful
and a good newspaper often fails for
the want of good business manage
ment.
Then Mr. Wiley, in the course of
his very sensible article, proceeds to
tell how country printing offices are
training schools for successful jour-
nalism.
He says:
"a country newspaper man is
brought into relations with every de,
partment of a newspaper. The coun-
try editor is generally his own bust
ness manager, advertising manager,
circulation manager foreman of the
composing room and foreman of the
press room. The experience he thus
obtains gives him complete and
intimate knowledge of the various
phases of newspaper work.
"The metropolitan newspaper has
become so SPECIALIZED that the city
! journalist has little opportunity to &C.
quaint himself with anything except
/ the department in which he is i'm
mediately engaged. The most sue
cessful business managers, therefore,
come from the country. Don G. Seitz,
the brilliant business manager of the
New York World, acquired his news
paper experience in Maine. II. F.

manager of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle
started life in country newspaper OF.

of the metropolitan newspapers began
their careers in country newspaper Of

"The newspaper offices of the coun.
try districts are the training ground
for the future editors and business
managers.
81 advise the country boy, with
newspaper experience, to study news
:, paper machinery. A good future
j awaits him.
Enlightened business management
i means clean journalism. The best
newspaper is that which gives a care
full, truthful record of the events OF
the day. Many newspaper publishers
1 conceive that the newspaper has some
! other mission or duty, and many OF
the newspaper failures are due to lack
of appreciation of the fact that the
newspaper reader wants, first of all
the news"

WHAT OF THE FUTURE?

When the tocsin of war sounded
and the able-bodied white men of the
south felt impelled to go to the front
there were evil forebodings that no
crops would be grown and dire dis
tress would fill the land.
But crops were grown. The south
not only fed her armies in the field
and managed somehow and in some
way to keep the wolf from the door
at home, but the federal army largely
preyed upon her resources, and it is
a fact that she largely fed both ar
mics.
We cannot look back upon that
period without marveling-the
achievements on the battle fields we're
little less marvellous than the achieve
ments in the harvest fields.
