Who are the capitalists OF Amer
lea
ASK any nnancier. any banker, any
corporation manager. He viii tell
you.
\ The real capitalists" he will ex-
plain, are not g handful OF wall
street millionaires, not a few men
of conspicuous wealth. Capitalists
include all investors The widows
and orphans whose dailv bread comes
from the dividends on a small lot or
shares or a few bonds are rs truly
capitalists as John D Rockefeller,
Andrew Carnegie. J. p. Morgan n
George F. Baker The workman who
has exercised frugality and has buiit
UP, dollar by dollar, little bank
account, is also capitalist
Therefore. when the politicians
propose to do anything injurious to-
carital they hurt not only limited
number of rich men, but every small
stakeholder ard bondholder in the
country. They hurt, also. labor
They hurt too, every savings bank
depositor, every holder or beneh-
ciary of an insurance policy. In
short, they hurt everybody"
Thus we learn that the capitalists
embrace the widows and orphans,
the small investor, savings bank
and other depositors, etc. We like
wise learn that laDor is vitality ar
fected by the treatment melted our

Good
Now. why should not ALL capital
lists be entitled to reasonable repre-
Sentation on boards of directors of
all huge corporations run on money
supplied by them?
And why not have labor repre-
scented seeing its interests are so
vitality involved?
Capital is not a narrow circle.

When enterprises We're conceived, |
cr"anized and largely financed BY |
individuals of little groups of men |
il was fitting that the individuals or
the little groups should manage |

Now that the millions instead Of |

And even the ablest of our finan

when any suggestion is made that
should be so widened
as to include representatives of the
millions of small investors, or. in
other words, large section OF the

their funds, what would happen to
the corporations over which yod

We have showed that there were
approximately 1850 900 stockholders

II will be rather risky business to
undertake the shipment of game by
parcel post in Georgia hereafter, as
State Game Warden Davis has just
returned from Washington, where he
secured a Postoffice Department order
torbidding it.
Warden Davis is making every in
telligent effort to enforce the game
law in Georgia, and it is specifically
against the letter of that law to ship
game from one county to another, or
out of the State into another State.
This law was being violated constant
ly, however by postoffice shipments;
and after the package containing the
game had been given over to Uncle
Sam, the State seemingly had no
way to help itself. Warden Davis
has found way by going to Wash
ington and having it out with the
Postmaster General.
Judge Moses Wright has declined
to sentence prisoners to the present

The continued serious illness of
Colonel Charles r. Pendleton, editor
Of The Macon Telegraph, has greatly
distressed and saddened the news
paper world in Georgia. Almost with
out exception, the weeklies carry in
their current issues editorial notes Of
most respectful sympathy and per-
sonal and professional appreciation.
The editor of The Telegraph is very
sincerely loved by his fellow crafts
men in Georgia, and it is doubtful
whether the words of any one editor
in the state carry so much weight
and influence as his.
That he may recover completely
and return soon to the work he loves
so well and performs with such sig
nal ability and intelligence certainly
is the wish and hope of the press of
Georgia.

less-therefore, the country is
better off.
The report of the State Treasurer,
recently made public. shows that
savings banks deposits have very
substantially increased within the
past few months, and 1t certainly
seems probable that an appreciable
proportion of the same must have
come from the farmers-and the in
ference in the mind of the State
Treasurer is that the farmers actually
have more ready cash in hand now
than they had this time last year y
But even If they have no more cash
now than they had then, and still are
much further out of debt, they are
well ahead Of the game

Floyd County Jail until it is put in a
sanitary condition. The judge says
the Jail as it now stands is "a posi-
tive disgrace to the county," and that
he actually feels he is endangering
both the health and life of prisoners
by permitting them to be incarcer-
ated therein.
1t seems that Floyd County long
ago outsrew its present Jail, which
was built something like 80 years
ago. and, although it's remodeling has
been recommended time and again by
various Grand Juries, nothing has
been done. Finally Judge Wright's
patience gave out entirely, and he has
nat-rootediy refused to send any more
prisoners there,
1t Is thought likely in Floyd that
the judges firm stand in this matter
VIII secure at least a halfway de-
cent Jail for the county, and maybe
Il VIII secure one altogether decent.

Measurinu Mans Worth.

Dr. Katherine M. H. Blackford told the Efficiency society at its annual meeting some of the ways of meas uring mans worth almost as accur- ately as though his moral and mental qualities could be placed upon the scales. All that the man doing the measuring has to do Is to keep tab on something like 54 characteristics and qualifications. One must be very careful not to make mistakes" Doc tor Blackford admitted. There was foreman once who expressed dissat- isfaction with the methods He showed his tables. The group of workmen under him measured up: Cheerfulness. 100 per cent; accuracy. orderliness, 100 per cent Then, asked his employer what's the mat ter?' 'Aw,' said the foreman, they're so darned gloomy"

CHUNG TO HER MORTAL LIFE
Little Thing Like Having Head Cut Of Apparently Did Not Worry
 California Hen.

A headless hen that. for F hours after she was decapitated walked around the corral like any other chicken, has been worrying Ephraim Tucker, a local stationery merchant residing at 40S Eureka street, accord ing to a Redlands (CaD dispatch to the New York Herald. The hen had been suffering several days from what is known as the gapes. She became so sickly that after.a conference with his wife Tucker decided to cut the hens head off and end her misery.
 When he performed the operation the wound did not bleed. Instead of futtering to the ground the hen walked off few feet and stood still Tucker was puzzled
 When he returned at II o'clock he went back to the corral with Ian. tern. The hen was still standing, and in addition had laid an egg.
 Next morning the merchant went to the chicken yard once more. The head less hen had moved 20 feet but was apparently as full of life as any of the other chickens.
 Tucker could stand 1t no longer. He seized the hen and with the hatchet cut off what was left of its neck. This time the hen futtered and died.

LITTLE THINGS IN BUSINESS
'r Many Ways They Have an lmpor- tance That at First Seems Out
 Of Proportion.

A seemingly insignificant word is Detail but have you ever stopped to consider that success Is dependent on it in a large measure or that failure may be the outcome, if you neglect the most trivial detail?
 Competition today Is so keen that the alert and energetic business man will make it a point to see that the smallest and seemingly unimportant part of his business has the same care and attention as the most i'm portant parts. for it is the looking after these little things that assists in materially increasing your business and putting it on higher plane.
 We are prone to attach little sig have you ever realized that your let ter is true index to your business methods, and that carefulness in writ ing is essential, for the impression it conveys is very important?
 The receiving of complaints and the adjusting of them is another es- pecial detail How many future sales are assured by proper adjustment of some wrong, whether real or fancied, and, too, consider the good impression you have helped to promote,
 If we were to attempt to enumerate all the trifles there still would be some missing when we got through, for the little things that need your attention are so varied and happen ing so unexpectedly they necessitate constant watching.

Aldeburgh, which today holds itl feast Of sprats, has run considerable rlsk in recent years of providing g feast for the sprats themselves. Fierce gales in the eighties and nineties dio very great damage. and almost com pleted the ruin begun by the sea thaa swallowed up ancient Dunwich. Al one time the land went a quarter of 8 mile farther out to sea and an old map preserved in the venerable Moot hall shows that the church had at least ten times more land toward the seq than it has now.

Novel Cpera Plan

Richard Strauss, the composer has suggested a plan whereby German cities of from 10000 to 5O.0OO inhab. itants, in groups of three, might have their own opera. By pooling funds they could afford to engage a first. class managing director at a salary of $12,500 year, who should be equipped with sufficient funds to organize d per manent instrumental and singing or. ganization, to divide the period of nine months, beginning in September and ending in May, between the three cit ies. The remaining three months of the year should be devoted to vaca. tions and rehearsal of new pieces. Such a cooperative system would, Strauss thinks, enable medium sized communities all over Germany to hear really first-class opera which they could consider their own enterprise and would also offer new opportuni. ties for aspirants, conductors and singers.

 Bishop was one of the best runners on the Hendrix team, and would have been one of the strongest contenders for the individual honors at the state field meet to be he'd at Pine Bluff May ?, but it is now thought he will be unable to participate in the meet
 The news of Bishops injury was received with much regret by the stu dents of Hendrix. It was a severe blow to the team, and will greatly handicap Hendrix chances for win

TO DEEPEN THE SUEz CANAL
Plans Tor Egyptian Waterway Con. template Uniform Depth Of
 Thirty-Nne Feet.

When the SueZ canal was originally made, for great part of it's 100 weary miles nothing but mere furrow cut through sandy desert, it had a depth or eight meters, or 26 English feet At various periods 1t has been deepened, until it reached it's present depth of 32 feet Operations are now In progress with view of making 1t uniformly 39 feet deep, process which, with other great works of improvement also go ing on, will involve a very large ex. penditure. In one respect the Suez canal has fortuitous advantage over other great artificial waterways. such as, for instance. the Panama canal and the Manchester ship canal-it is not affected by tides to any appreci. able degree, and has therefore no need Of locks. There is not a single lock between the almost tideless Mediter ranean and the Red sea. and the waterway remains constantly at an almost uniform depth The 39 feet will represent the minimum depth at low tide at Suez.

GIVEN PERRIN GOLD MEDAL
Inventor of ceiluioid Appropriately Honored by Chemical Societies
 of United States.

The eighth impression of the Perkin gold medal for important work in in dustrial chemistry was presented to John Wesley Hyatt, inventor of celIu- lold, at joint meeting of the New York sections of the Society of Chemi- cal Industry, the American Chemical society, and the American Electro chemical society
 MT. Hyatt, active in spite of his .ev- enty-six years. expressed his sincere thanks and gave an interesting ac- count of the invention of celluloid
 MT, Hyatt was born at Starkey, Yates county, New York, in 1887. in his early boyhood he acquired a strong taste for mechanical affairs in his fathers blacksmith shop In his six teenth year he went to Illinois and learned the printing business, working at this trade for ten years.
 Later he went to Albany and worked as Journeyman printer for about two years. Seeing S10,000 offer for a substitute for ivory for billiard balls he began experimenting nights and sundays Tn the hope of gaining the re- ward. He made a number of useful plastic compositions, none of them, however. good enough for billiard balls, but he started to make checkers and dominos of pressed wood
 1t was some time afterward that he invented celluloid and began the man ufacture of celluloid and bone dust billiard and pool -Metallurgical and Chemical Engineering
