MINORITY MEMBERS
 1 HONOR CARMICHAEL
Speeches Made Attest Fair ness of Speaker to Both
 Sides in His Rulings

Montgomery September 22.-tSpecial.) ) In recognition of his ability and fairness as a presiding officer and as a token of the high esteem in which he is held, members of the minority faction of the house of representatives today presented Speaker A. II. Carmichael with a hand some silver fruit bowl. The presenta- tion address was made by Representative Edward D. Johnston of Madison, local option leader of the house. who declared that Speaker Carmichael's rulings had been fair and just, and that he had manifested his friendship to the minor ity Faction as we'll as to the majority of the house
 The speaker of the house responded with much feeling. He said he believed the minority members of the house had worked for what they conceived to be to the best interests of the people of the state. and ascribed to them patriot ism and great courage.
 Representative Rogers of Sumter fol- lowed the speaker. The eloquent Sumter representative paid high tribute to the presiding officer of the house
 Strong and determined men always make enemies he said, but no wise man ever allows himself to become an enemy Hate is the offspring of fear and of ignorance: enemies are the foals of nightmares, born to die quickly. Friendships are the children of love and faith Faith in ourselves love of and faith in our fellow man. These must and will live on and never die
 Comrades, we are to separate; some of us, in the Providence of God, will for the last time say good-by. We go home. and with our families in the evening, when the long shadows stretch out their arms and take within them tired world. we shall dream dreams and see visions. Shall we rot in these visions see the faces of each other within the sacred circle of our loved ones?'

Around the Clock With the Flowers
SOCIAL SERVICE DnPARrMHNT By MRS. SIDNEY M. ULLMAN

We seldom think when looking at the flowers that they are really very good substitutes for a clock. One may never be at a loss to ascertain approximately the correct time from them. There are a number of blossoms thai open and shut at regular hours "A practical botanist," says the New York Times, ''has made list of few of them, and makes the staten that as far as he is concerned, he is willing to order his time according to it.
 From his tabulation has been made the following little poem, an easy way to remember the hours as the flowers open. By this little act of nature, making the flowers obedient to certain rules, we are given a service that seems small but Is really quite unique and worth while.
 We may rise at 9 a. m. with the open ing satin petaled morning glory and go to bed at 6 with the primrose, If we believe in the old adage. early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.''
 We may lunch at F with the opening of the passion flower, and dine at with the Lycus Vespertina.
 This flower time is another service of Mother Nature. Come let us go round the clock with the flowers. Can you tell the time of day
 With the dainty flowers? Many of them mark the time,
 As you pass the hours. With the satin Morning Glory
 The day is first begun, In all her many colors
 Dew kissed, she greets the sun. At a. m. the Rutland Beauty
 Opens for the day. At o'clock the Dandelion
 Is ready for display. The gorgeous Scarlet Poppy
 Mods at her sleepy head, The Bitter Sweet at comes, too,
 From out her grassy bed. At the Water Lily
 Opens her petals to the sun, And with her starry presence
 The day is well begun. Eight o'clock announces
 The scarlet Pimperne, That tells the weather bureau,
 If the day be ill or well. At nine the yellow Marigold,
 And red Sandwort will mate. The eleventh hour flower,
 Star of Bethlehem is late. 'sg t4 At noon the Passion Flower
 Gives its white and purple sheen.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1915-09-23

At two the Fever Few comes forth. From out the dusty green.
 The Four O'clock is here on time, Open to evening dew.
 When all the others nod their heads He alone is new.
 With the Lycus. Vespertina,
 The Primrose comes at seven, And at night the blooming Cereus, Sends her perfume up to Heaven.
 RETTA ULLMAN.
 Speaking of flowers reminds us of ar editorial in the small but splendid maga- zine called the Public, in which a com ment Is mare of the announcement, that Mrs. E. H. Hartman is to devote hel great fortune to the cause of eugenics by aid of board of scientists to secure the sterilization of the unfit"
 The article continues to say: MT. Car negie would have peace, MT. Rockefeller Sage would abolish poverty, Mrs. Harri- man would improve the race, all by SUD- porting boards of learned men to discover the cause. But the cause must remain forever hidden to them, for the reason that they themselves are the unwilling cause, and none of the beneficiaries oi their bounty has the spirit to proclaim the truth.
 of Mrs Hartman would know the chie1 cause of the existence of the unfit, lei her take a page from the work and ex- perience of Luther Burbank and General Gorgas Burbank does indeed select the choicest plants for propagation, but where does he propagate them? Does he put them in the poorest. stoniest soil? Does he leave them without water and fertil- izer? Does he permit the weeds and brambles to choke them? Does he put 1000 plants on plot that should sup port 100? Generals Gorgas caught Bur banks idea when he declared that the way to stop crime and disease was to double the wages of labor which is an- other way of saying: Give the plants room and nourishment.
 The difficulty in applying the Burbank Gorgas method. however, lies in the fact that If the mass of humanity is to have sufficient room and nourishment there will not be possible such fortunes as those of Carnegie, Rockefeller, Sage and Harri- man; and there's the rub. Millions can be had for the study of eugenics, but nothing for the application of euthenics. Hence, the wise men hide their heads in the sand This is not intended to be- little the importance of eugenics for the selection of the best is as promising of mankind as of brute kind; but the inn portant thing at this time is euthenics, or the securing of proper environment for the growth of human beings. Eugenics may be practiced by individuals; but eu- thenics depends upon social action. It is the necessity for that social action that now confronts society s. C.

RETAIL CLOTHIERS
 MEET IN CHICAGO

Chicago, September 22.-A recom- mendation favoring state laws pro- hibitng a merchant advertising a "go- ing out of business sale' from the same store more than once, was presented today to the convention of the Nation al Retail Clothiers' association.
 Meyer S. May of Grand Rapids, vice president of the association, who pre- sided at the session, fathered the sug- gestion.
 By this practice of repeated 'go- ing out of business sales.'" said MT. May, "the public loses faith in all mer chants. The truth must be behind sue cessful advertising"

Tnere has been a ghost"
story current since last week
when a young man said he was
followed by a ghost. The ghost
a woman walked parallel with
his course along the street, the
woman's figure being inside the
walk and according to the man
in question, she called a name in
low voice as if trying to identify
the man passing. The man was
a little put out and did not ans
wer. Later it developed that
the woman was colored, a cook
at the house in the yard where
she was walking and, having
finished her work was waiting
for her fellow. 1t being
pretty dark, she thought che
man passing was her loved one

OUR SENATOR HOME
Secured Subtantial Cash Bene-
fits for His District.
Feeling Fine.

DR.. John S. Wallace, state
senator from this district, re-
turned to Brunswick Monday
night, pretty we'll worn out with
the almost continuous session of
the legislature at the closing
time. Day and night for 5 days
was the progam as the regu-
lar pay time drew to a close, and
rather than remain longer at 81
per, overtime was put in. The
DR.. says that if the legislature
had not frittered away the early
part of the session, it would
have been better for everybody
He says that the aspirations of a
few representatives and senators
for higher places, caused them
to espouse bills with which they
were not in sympathy but played
polictics by appearing enthusias-
tic over them.
Senator Wallace secured $113.25
for the Forret Green Fair, the
amount due to it under the law
for encouraging stock shows.
He also dug up $3466.34 due to
this county for concrete bridge
and culvert work and for Linn
county $19O2.46. For the pur-
pose of expenses to be incurred
for putting up the price monu-
ment here, Senator Wallace got
through an appropriation of
$4,000, His measure to secure
$4,000 out of the general ap-
pro opriation for farm advisers to
be applied to demonstrations for
negro farmers, is in doubt.
Senator Wallace looks 20 years
younger and tho not a dollar
ahead on the job, the rest from
his practice and recreation thru
association with distinguished
men from all parts of the state
was worth the sacrifice of time.
John Randolph and Jack Harri-
son perked up on meeting the
Senator and noted his spryness,
but they couldn't stand the pace
but a few minutes they were
not with him at the Capitol-nor
Moberly.

Keytesville Baptist Church

Sickness and weather have
been such as to furnish legiti-
mate excuse for non-attendance
of some at church but we can
not think that three fourths of
the population are i'll and bed
ridden. The large number of
unoccupied seats are not intend
ed for any kind of adorning va
cancy. Christians of whatever
church, let US all awake and find
ourselves busy in taking the un-
converted to the house Of God,
to your church, and see them
saved. All Christians rejoice in
the recent awakening and reviv.
al in the town but this influence
will die if we not keep it alive.

KNOCK OUT DUCK LAW
Federal Judge Says Uncon-
stitutional-To the Su-
preme Court.

Judge Pollock of the U. 5.
District court at Topeka, Kas.,
has declared the Weeks-McLean
Law, the one forbidding spring
shooting of migratory birds, un-
constitutional. The decision
was filed Saturday, March 20.
This is the third case which has
been SO decided by the lower
Federal courts and the cases now
are before the U. S. Supreme
court for final hearing, The
court cited many cases from the
old common law down to the
present day to uphold the con-
tention that the right and title
to all game coming within any
state was within the control OF
the state itself and that the
Federal government had nc
right to interfere wherewith.
Many duck hunters OF Kansas
City and Kansas went out SUM-
day morning to get their ducks.
The prosecutors say that they
will continue to gather evidedce
and if the supreme court declares
the law constitutional, they will
continue to prosecute. This de-
cision is not final but the law hai
generally been thought by mos
attorneys to be unconstitutional
The law works a hardship on th'
shooters in the inland countries

fall shooting in the inland coun
tries is not to be spoken of a
there is not enough water in tn
fall to swim many ducks. Their
