Did You >ver notice when a man
smites his thumb with hammer while
putting down carpet under his wifes
supervision how quickly he thrusts the
bruised and throbbing member into his
mouth? People think 1t Is because the
application is soothing. But the move
ment is purely involuntarily like wink
ing The man cannot help 1t. The
fact is that nature knows what man
is apt to say under such circumstances
and so has pro yided him with an auto

gone without a murmur-but to
spend weeks and months cut off
from all the ordinary relations of
life, while your job or your business
or your professional career is aban-
doned for others to seize and profit
by at your expense, is nothing short
of an outrage.
Mr.. Hughes says the present ex-
perlence on the border will mean the
disruption and destruction Of the Ma
tionaI Guard-because nine out of
ten wen who are undergoing it will
not even consider re-enlisting in a
service which imposes such unneces-
sary hardships-and Mr.. Hughes is
right
These men are supposed to be on
the border to protect it from incur
sions of Mexicans If the pursuit Of
Villa had been vigorously pushed and
he had been captued and punished
thee would be no reason for further
apprehension on that score. Perish
ing's expedition, however, has sign
ally failed to accomplish anything.
The guardsmen are simply existing
there, at tremendous expense to
Uncle Sam, and at direct personal
loss to each one Of them. 1t is time
to stop this foolishness and bring
them back home, where they can be
of some real good to themselves, their
families and their communicates.

The Border Service.

Gradually but surely sentiment

BRUNSWICK SHOULD GET
BUSY.

In answer to an inquiry as to
when a date could be secured for
hearing arguments from a Bruns-
wick delegation in favor OF the pro
posed establishment of a branch OF
the United States District court in
, this city, the Board of Trade has re-
ceived he following telegram from
Representative Walker:
Congress will, in all probability,
recess on Friday, the twenty-second
to January second. Will arrange be-
fore Judiciary committee at any time
your citizens desire"
The bill TO establish branch of
the United States District court at
Brunswick was drafted a year ago,
was sent to Congressman Walker in
December 1915, and introduced by
him, and has since been in the hands
Of the Judiciary committee. Con
gresham Walker has frequently
stated that he will arrange with the
Judiciary committee for a hearing
from the citizens of Brunswick at
any time they desire to come to
Washington and appear before the
committee. The entire proposition
long ago resolved itself into mere
problem Of whether the people o.
Brunswick really desired branch Of
the court sufficiently to induce them
to push the bill before the Judiciary
committee with sufficient vigor to
secures favorable report. While the
court would be of benefit and saving
of expense to business men who have
cases before the United States, the
lawyers are the ones having The
keenest interest, and naturally the
business men look to the bar to push
the matter through. In 1915, COM
mittee Of Brunswick lawyers was ap-
pointed by the president of the
Board Of Trade. This committee
drafted the bill now in the hands of
the Judict%y committee of the
House of Representatives,
During the present year. the Board
of Trade has attempted TO secure,
through local attorneys, who are in
close touch with the United States
court officials through their practice
In the courts, data showing the
amount of business originating in
Southeast Georgia, on which saving
In time and expense would be effect
cd If branch of the court were es-
tablished in Brunswick, but, up to
this time, the Board of Trade has
been unable to obtain the informa-
ton through these channels.

tunity for Brunswick viii not be

Saving The Folks Feelings.

Somehow we cannot get out of our
minds thoughts Of those two boys
one 10 years old and another 20
who were executed at Sing Sing
yesterday, says the Savannah Press.
These were the lads, it will be re-
called, too. who asked the warden to
have them slain on Tuesday when
the law gave them the right to live
until Friday The reason given by
the boys for wishing to have the
execution over so soon was that they
wished to have the grief of their rel
atives "dulled" as they expressed it,
as much as possible before the ar
rival of Chritmas Day.
Life is sweet at 20, Usually at that
age it holds out os much that is
promising and encouraging that the
thought of death brings a feeling or
awe and dread that will not be CON-
forted. And for this reason it Is
remarkable that a boy of that age
and one a year younger should find
It in their souls to voluntarily short
en- their lives even as much as three
days. These youths were murder
ers, the law had said so and the law
had probably been correct in its
| estimate of the enormity of their
crimes, One had slain an officer,
! and another captain of a tug boat
They must have been hardened
| youths; Maynard, perhaps, and dis
| obedient. No doubt they gave little
thought to those near to them when
| n liberty and when they looked at
life as does the average boy of 10
and 20.
But prison life very soon sobers
one and brings prisoner, be he man
or boy. to sterner realization of
his responsibilities. But, too, it often
kills ones sense of right and strifes
ones better thoughts. 1t was all the
more commendable in these youths
that even the trying periods through
which they passed could not entirely
stifle thoughts of those who would
mourn for them when they We're
gone SO we find them asking that
the sentence OF the law be carried
out three days in advance of their
allotted time to die 10 keep the folks
back home from mourning too much
lat Christmas time-to dull their
erief' as the Associated Press ex-
pressed II in the first account of the
unusual request put upon the wires.

ed Today their friends and their
