~ CHEER HOT-HEADED RE-
MARKS.

Mcultrie, May "a mass meeting
held ltere today, attended by fully l,0OO
Coluultt farmers, went on record
as be ing unalterably opposed to the
enforced dipping of cattle for tick
eradication and adopted resolutions
calling upon the county authorities to

JUNE ROSES.

Perhaps the strangeSt yet the most
natural thing about human nature is
the persistence Of its humanness.
Kingdoms rise and fall and civiliza-
tons flourish and decay, yet through
countless generations of men and wOm-
en-, youth and faith and romance are
as inevitably the possession of every
separate life as are the good earth's
uerfumed woods and sunny skies a
part of each returning spring.
Think now of how half of a world
is rocking to it's foundation under the
tread of monster armies and the roar
of monster guns, and yet as this
springs sun has climbed higher and
higher toward the blue zenith OF its
perennial dream, Italy's violets have
once more breathed their old-time fra
GRANGE among the cleaning marbles
CT their ancient land. Along the beau
horse chestnuts have dropped their
soft petals as gaily as above the heads
Of once unsorrowing crowds; the corn
flower of the old Kaisers love has
made huge patches of fairy blue in war
saddened Germany's newly planted
fields; and besides the lanes and the
hedge.rows of England the primrose
has doomed as bravely as in the hap
pier days of peace. Spring has come
again to hearten the earth even in the
face of war and bloodshed and battle
and horror and death.
And now comes June-for all the
war-Wrecked world-June with her
roses and her brides, myriads of ros-
cs circling the wide earth with all
their magic of perfume and Of color,
and brides without number bringing
once more to the old worlds heart of
hearts their messages of tendernet
and hope.
Truly beauty and love and youth are
eternal, and June is great Natures
yearly pledge of their Immortality

HOW TO GET READY
FOR CANNING SEASON

The hard work and confusion so Of
ten connected with home canning is
largely due to the fact that the house
wife is unprepared for the work. Max
ing two or three glasses of jelly, jar
OF preserves of filling a dozen cans
with some fruit in season can be done
with but little time and work under
tie right conditions.
1t is a good plan in the early spring
to so over all leftover cans, jelly glass
es, Jars and covers, cleanse them thor
ough!y and place on a shelf ready for
sterilizing as needed. All covers that
do not fit perfectly and all old rubber
should he thrown away, as til is much
better to buy new supply of these
each season than to risk losing even
one can of fruit.
Other accessories to the canning
shelf are paraffin, printed labels, white
letter paper, SCISSORS, calander, fine
meshed strainer, wide-mouthed fun
mel, a wooden masher, several long
handled wooden or enamel spoons,
flannel jelly bag, a fruit pricker and
plenty of cheesecloth or small fresh
towels-Margaret B. Foulks, in June

Paris, May 29,-Gen. Joseph s. Gal

Versailles today.
The death of General Gallieni, while
not unexpected, created a profund i'm
preston as he was idolized by the
French people, particularly the poor,
who regard him as the savior of Paris
during the critical days of August,
1914. His funeral will be the event of
a notable military and civil demon

THERE IS A BIG DIFFERENCE

The statement of George w. Perkins that "the taxpayers of Greater
New York IA be saved millions of dollars a year if the administration
cal be I'm along the lines say of principles which are used by the Unit
ed States Steel Corporation" is doubted by the New York World and
prompts that paper to say that government and corporation manage
ment are distinct trades. The United States Steel Corporation is man
aged to make money for its stockholders, and the stockholders are inter
ested only in dividends That is why it car be administered o business
lines. But if the United States Steel Corporation had to cope with the
conditions that confront city governments its principles would soon be
in the scrap-heap.
Suppose the corporation, for example, had to educate the children of
its stockholders and supervise the public eating and drinking habits of its
stockholders and clean the streets in a way that suited everybody and
censor its stockholders easements and regulate their morals and pro-
vide transportation, and suppose some of the stockholders were very
good and som of the stockholders we're very bad and some were betwrxt
and between and all Of them wanted things III to suit themselves or
their convenience or their prejudces o their religious convctions-as

BUT WILL THEY LEARN?

A late issue OF the Sufragist, the official organ of the Womans
party, states that with the opening Of congress, the women of every
state are imperiously' demanding from their representatives active as-
gressive support OF the great national amendment for the enfranchise-
men of women
The Century dictionary gives the following definitions to the word
imperous: Domneering, dctatoral, overbearing. And wa it not that
attitude that made the Womans party so unsavory in the ecent election
in the western states and defeated their every purpose? The Appeal is
loath to say that women should have to cringe OF truckle to nnen n order
to gain suffrage ir any other point, but at least they al dispense, which
certain members of the Woman's party did 10 do, with bulyragging
and the acts of the hoodlum. More flies are caught with sugar than with
vinegar. And when Ann Martin, Mabel Vernon, Margaret Foley ct al
learn this they will have received a lesson that will do a lot of good for
the cause they claim to be trying to further.
