TOMORROW NAMED
AS ROOSTER DAY
EVERY ROOSTER IN THE COUNTY
SHOULD BE KILLED, SOLD,
OR PUT INTO SOUP.

The Georgia State college of agri-
culture has designated tomorrow. May
10. as official Rooster Day. The
desire of the authorities is thaI ev-
cry rooster in the state, except those
retained for breeding purposes later
on, be killed or otherwise disposed
Of This is a movement which is
sweeping over the country in behalf of
better eggs, more profit in their sale
and less rotten eggs in the summer
time.
Nearly everybody is afraid to eat
eggs in the summer time, because
so many of them are found to con-
tain half developed chicks. This les
sens the demand for eggs and con-
sequently lowers the price. If all the
roosters are killed, sold or confined in
separate pens, by the first week in
June all eggs on the market will be
infertile and pure. There will be no
chance for rotten eggs to get into the
market channels.
The rooster killing day will be OBJ
served generally in Glynn county and
the slaughter will be great. it is said
Some chicken raisers however, prefer
to confine the roosters and thus save
them until time for breeding comes
around again.

 AS Woodrow Wilson is strong, so must be the men who are to be named on the various state tickets that are to be voted on in November. This state In particular calls for a strong Democrat at the head of the ticket. Marcus H. Holcomb at the head of the Republican ticket Is such a man that calls for a worthy op- ponent. The Democrats know this. They appreciate the strength of their opponents. They glory in 1t, for the battle of strong against weak Is never one that calls forth admiration. When giants meet giants the struggle Is worth viewing. Give us a giant then on the Democratic ticket so that the contest may be somewhat evened, and then let the better man win. be he Democrat or Republican. There are big men in the Democratic party any one of whom will make a formid- able candidate for governor.

MT. Hughes Opportunity.
(BOston Post.

Sooner than he could have expect ed, and possibly sooner than he might wish, the opportunity has come to Charles E. Hughes to take a stand for the principle of arbitration which he says President Wilson so basely be- trayed in his successful averting of the railroad strike.
 The situation in the present street railway strike in New York Is exactly the reverse of that which existed in the steam railroad controversy. In this case the men are willing to ar bitrate the master and man" con- tracts issue, but the street railway of fcials squarely refuse to do it. It proves anew that the principle of ar bitration IS sacred to capitalists when they choose to arbitrate, but of no particular account when they don't choose to.
 But MT. Hughes chance to make good his criticism of the president for what he declares was the execu- tfve's failure has now arrived. For once he can be constructive. To be sure, not a word was heard from him during all the presidents negotiations with men and officials as to what MT. Wilson ought to do. Not a syllable escaped his lips until he arrived at his customary region of hindsight. He offered no advice, presented no cr1tl- cism; so far as the threatened rail- road strike was concerned he was perfect sphinx-until there was no longer danger of one.
 He can make amends. for his former silence now if he chooses. He can nob1y and publicly uphold the prin- ciple of arbitration which he pro- fesses is so dear to his heart. He can issue a ringing appeal to the traction moguls and financial interests in New York to accept arbitration at once, and thus preserve the ,prin cfple that he declares he would have insisted upon in the case in which the president saved the country from untold dlsas- ter.
 Will the candidate do this? Will ne advise his New York supporters to ar bitrate. now that the employees are willing to do so? If he decEnes' ne will miss the opportunity Of hls cam paign to square his words with deeds. And he will prove that his assaults on the president were for purely par tisan= purp oses only. ----.------------a

A LOST SENSATION.

1 Since mans inventions have trans-
 formed the earth the business, or is
 it an art, of going away has lost some
 of its charm. Leaving home and
 mother in this day and generation is 1 not accompanied with all the glamor 1 and romance that bedecked 1t in days of old, except in the instance of a son going to the war. With the incessant tick, tick, tick of the telegraph and the grind of locomo otive wheels, or the churn of a steam boat propeller, the event that marks the going away of any member of the family is made commonplace. Going away is not what it used to be in the days of the stage coach.
 Standing on a railroad platform two sweethearts can say goodbye without the semblance of a tear be- cause down in their hearts they know that in case of hom esickness Or ab- solute loneliness there is always an- other train that traverses the same tracks. There Is nOC the expectancy in travel there once was. The train departs from the station; but 1t can always be caught by the fast flying spark of the wire Even in the case of the steam boat there is the wire less connection with the land.
 When the aeroplane comes into everyday use as a form of transporta- ton all the glory of going away will have been sent to the closed covers of books. From California to Maine was once great journey From New York to London was a feat of won der in the days of the sailing vessel. With the coming of the Deutschland new thrill was put into ocean travel but anly for a moment. Now, men shake hands in New Jersey on Mon Gay and meet new friends and &C., quaintances in San Francisco or Ber- lin before the end of the week. There is indeed too much of the prosaic in going away; 1t means nothing because there are so many means of coming back.

 sought her next day. And they sought her Tn vain while a

 found her not. And years flew by, and their grief

 lain hid, Was found in the castle,-they raised
 the lid, And a skeleton form lay molderingy'
 there In the bridal wreath of that lady fair! O, sad was her fate! in sportive jest She hid from her lord in the old oak
 chest. It closed with a spring!-and, dread
 full doom, The bride lay clasped in her living tomb!
