BEAUTIFUL WAR POEM.

Here is poem that for sheer beau
ty equals any the war has produced.
The author known as brilliant poet,
was one of the young Englishmen who
went to the relief of Antwerp in
Winston Churchill's naval brigade. He
died recently in the Dardanelles. The
poem is by Rupert Brooke and called
IF l Should Die" 1t reads:
If l should die, think only this of me:
That there's some corner of for
eign field
That is forever England. There
shall be
In that rich earth richer dust
concealed;
A dust whom England bore, shaped.
made aware,
Gave, once, her flowers to love. her
ways to roam.
A body of England's breathing English
air,
Washed by the rivers, blest by suns
of home.
And think, this heart. all evil shed
away,
A pulse in the eternal mind, no less
Gives somewhere back thoughts
by England given;
Her sights and sounds; dreams happy
as her day;
And laughter, learnt of friends; and
and gentleness,
In hearts at peace, under an En-
glish heaven.

BARBECUE FOR
STATE LAWMAKERS
Especial to Times-Recorder.)

ATLANTA, Ga, July 10-The Geor
gia legislature worked with an eye on
the clock and an anxious expression
today, for the members were looking
forward to that barbecue this after
noon at the home of Colonel Walter P.
Andrews, member from Fulton, who
had invited everybody from speaker to
pages out to his handsome country
place on the Peachtree road. Colonel
Andrews is a noted host, and his bar
becue is likely to interfere seriously
with the entertainment planned for
the solons tomorrow by the citizens of
Athens. The legislature leaves for the
Classic City tomorrow to be guests of
the Chamber of Commerce, but it is
not likely the visitors will have much
appetite after Colonel Andrews feast.
A bill to re-write the constitution
instead of putting on new patches ev-
cry year has been introduced by Rep
resentative Elders of Tatnall county
who urges a constitutional convention
for a November 1916 election and a
January. 1917, meeting. MIR. Beck, of
Carroll has a free text book bill be-
fore the house and also would limit
the pardoning power of the gov
ernOr.
Both houses devoted most of
yesterdays session to hearing an ad-
dress by Senator Thos. w. Hardwick
who paid high praise to President Will
son in talk before a joint session. Mr..
Hardwick favored a stronger navy and
