A GENTLEMAN

A man that's clean inside and
out, who neither looks up to the
rich nor down to the poor; who
can lose without sqcealing and
win without Dragging; who is
cOnsiderate Of women, children
and old people; who is too brave
to lie, too generous to cheat and
who takes his share of the world
and let's other people have
theirs. - New York Sun.
John Bunny, the movie actor who
died recently has perhaps received
more public notice through the news
papers than any one man in the United
States, though he was known only
through the pictures. But he made
thousands upon thousands laugh, and
that ought to count for something.
Many newspapers and public men,
both at home and in Mexico, are advis-
ing that the'w@ay to stop the revolution
IN tha/ country is by the starvation
fi'66dtc This is one very effectual way
to stop war anywhere, and it would
work in Europe as well as in Mexico.
But the trouble is, as soon as any ma
ton gets hungry America rushes to the
front and feeds them, and these same
newspapers will make their business
Offices a collection agency for the funds
and food for the starving nation; and
these same public men will be the first
and largest contributors. SO it would
seem that the starvation of naticn
within our reach is an impossibility.

Paying the South's Tribute

Taking note of the fact that the dates
on which the various Southern states
observe Memorial Day are scattered
over a period of nearly six weeks, the
Raleigh News and Observer suggests
for the consideration of the United
Daughters of the Confederacy and the
United Confederate Veterans of the
South that some agreement should be
reached for uniformity Of observance.
In Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi and
Florida April 26 is observed and Monday
of this week was elaborately observed
throughout those commonwealths. May
10 is Memorial Day in North and South
Carolina: The second Friday in May is
the day in Tennessee. In Virginia the
observance is held on May 80, which is
also the date set apart in the states of
the North as Decoration Day In
Louisiana the third day of June is OBJ
served as Confederate Memorial Day.
A concerted annual tribute by the entire
South to the men who gave their lives
for the Confedercy would doubtless be
httlng and impressive, and vet we can
not feel that uniformity is vital ele-
ment. = Charlotte Observer.
Uniformity might not be vital ele-
ment, but we believe it would be much
more impressive for all the people of
the Southland to set apart one and the
same day to observe as Memorial Day
for those old soldiers. 1t would seem
to better bind together the hearts of
the people and make them feel more
like brothers and sisters Of the South
if in each Confederate state they Law
down their work and hold memorial
services in honor of Confederate SOL
dicrs the same day. And then there
would not be so much confusion regard
ing Memorial Day. The average citi-
zen Of any Southern state does not
know when is Memorial Day. In South
Carolina May 10 is Memorial Day, but
in Pickens June 3 Jefferson Davis
birthday is observed instead-e-4!{s be-
