Editorial by Girl Other Girl Even Boys Might Read 1t

Tell mother that she needs rest and that you
are going to make it possible for her to take it
right at home.
She must have her breakfast in bed, served on
a dainty tray, as though she had always been
lady of leisure.
It will be hard for her to be inactive for awhile
but she will begin to enjoy the novelty of the
situation very soon.
While you are tidying up the house, starting
the luncheon and making the beds-mother can
be out in the garden or in the hammock reading
some of the books and magazines that she had to
push aside during the busy winter months.
In the afternoon she can go calling or to the
park while you take care of little sister, il you
have one, or start to fix things for supper.
How splendid it will be to sit down at the table
with mother and the rest of the family and
know that you have done everything to put the
house in apple pie order and made al the good
things to eat yourself

Start Right

The taking over by the government of the Say
vile wireless plant is proper though belated
action.
AT the very beginning, not of the war, but of the
discovery of wireless teegraphy, the United
States should have pre-empted the right of oper-
ating ITSELF all stations powerful enough to main
tain direct communication with other continents
We have let number of good things slip into
the hands of private ownership in the past and now
find it hard to pry them loose. 1t is just import
ant for the United States to retain control, and
have full knowledge, of all lanes of communication
with European countries it is to control the inn
ports and exports from and to those countries.
1t is well, entitled to the profits of operating
such radio stations if there be any profits, and
should bear the loss if there be any loss In other
words, they should be owned by Uncle Sam and
operated for the benefit of his people just the
mails are, and the cable and telegraph should be.
There will come day when the people will be
awfuly sorry they turned the wireless privilege
loose.

An Important Move

One of the most important moves in the religious
world in years. is the decision of the Christian En-
deavorcrs of the South to acknowledge brother
hood with the negro race and take their work into
the negro churches.
"God'' they say, "has placed at our door the
greatest opportunity for Christian work that ever
came to any missionaries anywhere"
The proposition of jim-crow heaven is abolish
ed and the great home missionary field is opened.
Where the Christian Endeavorers do pioneer work
other strong religious bodies are likely to follow

Girls, this is not man written editorial, but
an editorial written by one of you to you.
When you were babies your mother bought
you little rag doll to play with and you made
mud pies in the garden When you grew older
baby-doll took it's place and instead of mud
pies you tried your luck at "real Ones"
Mother showed you how to ''keep house" and
take the very best care of your 'baby," and in
this way you spent many, many happy hours.
Now that you are grown up and school is out
for few months-why don't you play house
again?
Only this time play "really house," for it is
just as important that you know how to run a
house and cook well as it is to learn your school
lessons.
Be the housekeeper in your own house for
about month and give your mother a vacation!
The very idea of it will make everybody happy

Foolish Arrive Safely

We are told that great apprehension is relieved
by receipt of advices that the steamship Adriatic
arrived safely at Liverpool.
The Adriatic sailed from New York June 30th,
with 339 passengers and big cargo of ammuni-
ton under them. We surely feel relieved, too. One
of the trying things about this is worry over
folks who persist in fooling with gunpowder that
may go off at any moment.

her of years to the time when our
country was new. Did the Ethel
opians voluntarily land upon our
shores, and willingly tear Them
selves away from native ties to
endure the hardships of dis
tant land among strange people
and customs? This phase of the
situation offers much food for
thought. l do not believe that
the two races should intermarry
because of environment and the
vast differences In the tempera-
ment and modes Of life between
the two peoples; but for us to
extend to them such little courte-
sizes as you mention Is only hui
man, and demonstrative of a
brotherIy spirit which should ex-
list between all the races of man.

Don't Miss "A Pair Of Skies"

Oysters and shows have their seasons

but it takes play with a pearl setting
to run all summer. "A Pair of Skies"
which will be seen Monday evening,
March l, at the Opera House, seems to
catch the spirit of The Silent Partner.
1t is living example of a dead failure
when men in business pull apart And
all through the lines you can see where
the violet, the rose. and the lilac meet.
In all the play there is not a crude, not
a rude line. The author is an authority
an expert, on tangling and untangling
men and women in a manner that leaves
only Uggestions-without the usual Of
Tense.
The truth is, ! am inclined TO think
most men and all women-alinost ali
woren-are much better than painted. !
mean to say, that two-thirds OF the
trouble of men in business. and the bet
ter half Of women in homes, is the result
of lack of understanding.
The writer Of "A Pair of Sixes'' certain
" comes in the front door on this subject
without knocking" Don't forget to see

ton and q liberal chance TO laugh. Take

ALEXANDRA BOLDuC
ALMSHOuSE INMATE
COMMITS SUICIDE
Cuts Throat with Razor at 2.3O
Wednesday Morning and
Death Follows Quickly
Cause of Act Undoubtedly
Insanity

Alexandra Bolduc. aged rs years
and six months, an inmate Of the City
farm, committed suicide at about $50
Wednesday morning in his room ia
that institution by cutting his throat
with a razor. Bolduc was admitted to
the aimshouse Jan. IL Of the curren.
year and had been receiving medical
treatment for some time past. There
is no doubt that the cause Of his act
was insanity.
Owing to the crowded conditions at
the farm it is necessary in some cases
for two men to occupy a room, each
having a single bed to sleep in and
Bolduc was one Of those who had a
room mate, their room being near the
end of a corridor. The first that
was known of the tragedy was when
the occupants Of room adjoining the
one occupied by Bolduc heard an out
cry and rushed into the latter's room
just in time to see him collapse on the
floor at the foot of the bed. Bolduc
had evidently stood up on his bed
and after slashing his throat with his
razor had fallen to the floor. Death
had followed almost instantly.
The alarm was quickly given and
when Overseer Jackson had been
aroused he notified Coroner Frank
Hewins and that official arrived
shortly after 3 O'Clock. On viewing
the remains Coroner Hewins decided
that it was so plainly case of suicide
that no inquest was necessary-that
death had resulted from cutting the
throat with a razor and that the act
was due to insanity. 1t was learned
from the coroner that Bolduc had
said to his room mate that his throat
felt bad and that he was going TO GU.
1t, and followed his words with the
act. 1t is understood that Boiduc has
several brothers and sisters, part Of
whom are in Augusta
The remains were later in the day
taken to the undertaking rooms D.
knowlton & Hewins to be prepared
for burial
