AMERICUS SENDS
DELEGATION FOR
ROADS CONGRESS
RYLANDER, HOOKS AND CHRIST.
IAN TO ATTEND MEETING IN
ATLANTA THIS WEEK.

Sumter county 1.-The good roads
county" of Georgia, will be represented
this week at the National Good Roads
congress, which assemblies in Atlanta.
County Commissioners T. B. Hooks
and Arthur Rylander, with Roads supt.
H. T. Christian will go to Atlanta to
attend the congress. 1t is estimated
that more than five thousand delegates
representing every state in the union,
will throng the capital city during the
session Of several days.
Among these delegates will be
three senators, as many cabinet Off
GERS, score of governors, the heads
of every highway commission of prac-
tically every state in the union, mayors
and county commissioners ad in1ni-
tum, representatives from many of the
large universities in all parts of the
country. representatives of scientific
societies of many sorts and a number
of high government officials from Can
ada.
As for the extent of the exhibits,
the Atlanta congress will by far ex-
coed any past meeting. The first ex-
hibits were held at the Atlantic City
meeting, when the exhibits occupied
$4,000 square feet of floor space. AT
Detroit the exhibits occupied about
10000 square feet The exhibit space
already contracted fJr in Atlanta ex-
ceeds the higher figure.
The advance guard Of the American
Road congress began arriving in At
lanta in the middle of last week. Ever
since the delegates have been coming
in. These early arrivals came for the
purpose of arranging details of GER
tain programs in which they were in
terested, or for the purpose of install
ing and arranging exhibits.

pick people. The nation works hard,
and when it plays it does that in the
same thorough fashion"
But all this extravaganza and lux
ury must be a positive danger for the
people," I said. He smiled little
disdainfuIly and adjusted his monocle.
Luxury" he replied, "is good
thing in itself, provided you combine
it with good taste and order, mein
herr-order!"
The note of order is certainly no
ticeabIe in Berlin, but that of lavish
display has begun to run riot. Much
that is new is also beautiful and orig
inal but there is also much corrupt
taste visible. All this may be due to
the mere expression or wealth, or it
may be owing to the deliberate plan
of the Kaiser to make Berlin the gay
est city in the world. His ambitions
in this direction are we'll known, al
though his interference with the
work of artists and architects has al
ways been ridicu'ed. Again, the new
Berlin may be an outcropping Of the
modern artistic movement of which
the Germans are so proud. We have
seen a little of this in the theatrical
productions of Max Reinhardt. But
the feverish haste and intensity of
life that has seized the Prussian cap
ital makes the whole seem like bril-
liant bubble, an Alladin's palace
sprung up like a mushroom in a
night.
Berlin's West End lies between the
Friedrichstrasse and the Potsdamer
Platz and some of the side streets near
Inter den Linden. Along these thor
one colossal, many-storied
restaurant jostles the other. There are
the great beer palace restaurants Of
the famous Munich breweries-Hof-
brau, Lowenbrau and many others
all Of several floors with rathskellars
Or extensive vaults. In contemplate
ing this side Of Berlin life the mind is
of some future communal
state when all these preparations for
feeding multitudes shall be in the
hands of one central establishment.
There is a distinctive class of res
taurant in Berlin called wine res
-aurnat." The Rheiugold is one Of

sweden To BUILD
TWO DREADNAUGHTS

STOCKHOLM, Nov. 9.-The new de-
fence act has provided for big in
crease of strength of the Swedish navy.
1t is expected that two semi-Dread-
noughts, specially designed for use in
Swedish waters will soon be construct
ed. Swedens u new destroyers, of a
larger type than heretofore resigned,
will have speed of 80 knots, and will
all be turvine boats. About 20 sub
marines will be built as soon as pos
sible. The government is to build the
smaller craft, but probably the big YES
sells will be constructed at private
shipyards.

NEW YORK, Nov. IA Washington
dispatch to the New York Tribune

seer always asks, "Who can carry New
York;" Whitman's sweep Of the En-
pire State, followed by a good record
as its chief executive, will be a valua-
BILE asset in his favor when the repub-
lican party meet in convention to
name a standard bearer.
The election of Representative Frank
B. Willis, as governor of Ohio also
makes him possible contender for the
republican nomination, assuming that
his administration is successful. At
present, however, Whitman has the
call on public interest.

BURSTING SHELLS
UNTHRONED REASON
RY Assoc1ArED pREss-

London, Dec. 2s.-Confirmation Of
stories that bursting shells have upset
men mentally by exploding near them,
sometimes without infiicting bodily
injury, may be found In the case Of
Lieutenant Derys CooIe, Of the Black
Watch, who was alta to the Cor
don Highlandsrs.
Cooke has tust returned home to
recuperate. The last thing he remem-
bers was sitting at lunch in a sup
porting trench. This presumably was
on November II. He recollects Moth
ing from that time until November IS.
when he found himself in a hospital
train on the way to Havre. During
the interval his mind was a blank.
though, as it now appears. he wrote
several post cards and letters while
in this state. They were clear and
lucid and were duly received by his
relatives: but Of writing them young
Cooke has not the slightest recollec-
ton. He does not even know what
happened to him in the trench, but
the assumption is that a shell burst
very near his head.

Moulton at "A meeting just held here

dyes every year, he said
1T is not because the production
OF coal tar products was discovered u.
foreigners, or because we lacked Tire
raw material necessary for the manu-
facture Of dyes, that We have faird
to manufacture our own supplies. The
chief reason has been that the Tuglial
dislike study.
THE holders of capital I'm England
have had little sympathy with lnowl-
edge they themselves did not possess.
The consequence has been that great
inventions have fallen dead IN Eng
land They have been offered in Ger
many, studied there by instructed
minds and accepted. and the consa-
quence has been great industrial pro-
duction, the fruit Of which the rest OF
the world has received. But in Eng
land difficulties are found and the
thing is dropped.
Because the masters, the capital
lists, have not got sympathy for this
self preparation for the difficult task,
there is no career for the young men
who are willing to study. They are

STORAGE of Water.

The shortage of water in country
districts might be obviated If there
were sufficient storage for the rain
fall. 1t is a matter of tank or well
accommodation-and the owner Of
cottage property does not as rule
provide either. The usual forty-gal-
lon oil barrel owned by the tenant is
an inadequate supplement to the
spring water well or pump. In wet
weather the barrel over6ows, the cot
tage walls reek with damp, and the
yard is often a quagmire. Given the
average rainfall for the district and
the roof area of the cottage 1t is an
easy matter to work out the quantity
of water thus wasted. In very dry
corner of dry East Anglia, from a cot
tage and outbuildings no bigger than
the average agricultural laborer's, II
is possible to collect and store 1000
gallons of clean rain water.-Londor

Learning a Language.

The time to learn a language Is
when you are young, the younger the
better. We Learn our own language
as children. The older we grow the
harder it is, because 1t means not
merely learning by heart a great
many words, not merely training the
palate and tongue to produce diner
ent sounds, but adopting new atu-
tude of mind. Nothing definite has
been discovered as 10 the localization
of faculties in the brain, therefore
nothing certain is known, but 1t has
always seemed TO me and to others
whom | have consulted that when you
learn a new language you are exer'
cising and developing a new piece OF
brain. When you know several lam
guages and change from one to anoth-
er. you seem definitely to change the
piece of brain which actuates your
tongue. You switch off one center
and switch on to another You will
always notice in yourself and others
that there Is a definite pause when
the change Of language is made. Now
it becomes every year more difficult
to awaken an unused part Of the
brain and bring 1t into active use
and to begin at twenty-three is late.
