The Road

| sing you>an ode
Of the country road
The lumpy road,
And the bumpy road,
That jolts the wagon and spills
the load;
Mud to the hubs when the rain
comes down,
Filled with ruts when the fields
are brown
And the sun is hot and the air is
dry.
It's clogged with gravel and
packed with sand,
So built and graded and laid and
planned,
That it takes a team,
And sometimes two,
To do the work one horse should
do.
1t racks the wagon with jolts
and jars;
1t ruins horses and motor cars,
Keeps back crops from the mar
ket place
Piles up debt on farmers place
The old time road is a plain dis
grace.
But the modern road is a diff
ferent thing,
A worthy theme for the bard to
sing;
Put together
For every weather,
Smooth and dustless and good to
see,
And graded right as a road should
be;
Useful always and muddy never,
A thing of beauty-and joy for
ever.
-Berton Braley.

Thursday night of last week

opened with the Indian play
"Hiwatha" with the the young
people all dressed as Indians and
produced quite a sensation. AS
the young folks made fine
Indians. This night was devot-
ed giving certificates to those
who had completed the Grammar

delivered the Salutatory and
Miss Lucille Neubert the Vale
dictory. A vocal solo by Miss
Cora Berry accompanied by Mrs.
E. M. Hamilton, of Humboldt,
Tenn, was a special feature and
much enjoyed by the audience.
The eulogy on Robt. E. Lee by
Bob Clark Stovall deserves spe-
cial mention.
The literary address delivered
by Prof. Thos. c.. Earlv, of the
A. & M. College, was unique in
that it was different from the
general run of literary addresses.
Instead Of fine cut phrases and
taffy to the young people it was
intensely practical from start to
finish and told what young peo-
pie ought to do, why they should
do it, and when, interspersed
with anecdotes enough to make
it thoroughably enjoyable.
Mr.. S. E. Adams, chairman of
the board of trustees, delivered
the diplomas in a graceful and
practical talk that was strictly
in keeping with surrounding
circumstances.

When speed Becomes panaerous.

When Speed Becomes Dangerous.
Mrs. Rose Pastor Stokes, speaking
at the first annual conference Of the
American Museum of Safety in New
York, says that speed is the real prob
lem Of labor. 1t is not that machin-
cry is so dangerous, she says, but
what is called industrial efficiency
keys the workers up to a pitch that
means Ia time mental and physical
exhaustion. She says that up to q
certain point a worker can increase
speed, and that after that it begins
to decline. Business compels the at
titude of the owners of factories, she
says, and they do not realize how they
grind down the girls in their seeking
for efficiency.

Of the Austrian rejoinder but re-

the successors OF Captain Boy-Ed

German naval and military attaches,
will be appointed by Emperor VIII

Count Won Bernstorff, the German

that should successors be appointed
they would Immediately become the
subject Of criticism to their detri-
ment and the impairment perhaps OF
the general situation.
AT any event successors would not
be named until the Withdrawn at
