U. S. SENATOR CONTROVERSY
WAKING WARM IN STATE

Gov. Philips announcement that
he Will ask the legislature, which will
be called in special session, for pow
er to appoint a temporary successor to
the late United States Senator Paul O.
Hustlng, has developed a riot Of dis
cuss1on and speculation. There is a
great difference Of opinion as to
whether the legislature should con-
vey this power to the governor, or 90
straight to the test of loyalty by in
sisting upon a special election.
Among senators and assemblymen
who believe Gov. Philips position
Is sound and that he seeks power to
appoint because he firmly believes
that wide-open, bitter campaign may
menace the cooperation that has
been built UP between the state and
national administrations, intimate that
the governor may have information
which will make his position stronger
when the members convene There
appears to be an inclination to hear
more fully from him.
Political parties and factions are
divided. La Toilette followers and So
cialists are insisting upon a special
election, and some democrats take the
same position. Among republicans
there is difference of opinion. Some
indorse the governors position. 9th
ers believe that conditions would be
changed in 1918, when the senator
ship would be filled at a regular cleo
ton, therefore nothing would be
gained by avoiding an ELECTION at this
time. Not a few, however, think that
the legislature would authorize Gov
Philip to name senator if he
were willing to make known his
choice before the Legislature voted.
This suggestion, it was pointed out
was not based upon Ine suspicion
that the governor would not name a
thorough-going American who would
back the president. Men agree, &C
cording to statements made on We'd
nesday, that his choice would repre-
sent brand of sentiment not repre-
sented by La Toilette The sugges-
lion that he take legislators into his
confidence to the extent of making
lnown the name of the man he would
appoint, was purely political.

GLOOMY DAY HAS ITS USES
For One Thing, 1t Gives Man an OP.
portunity to Mediate and Be
STRENGTHENED.

A gloomy day now and then serves
to sit down and take stock of himself,
for there is something about the lower
ing clouds and dismal weather which
causes one to contemplate more seri-
ously the realities Of life, the Dayton
News observes.
And gloomy day at this season, of
all gloomy days! Sodden, sullen,
dreary! The gloom seems to hover
over and settle down upon one and
sink into his soul. The mind refuses
to run In cheerful channels. The very
muscles seem to relax and to rebel
when asked to do a task. The blood
flows slowly through the veins and the
nerves grow dull. At least, that is
the way it seems upon a gloomy day
at this time of the year.
1t Is pretty hard to think seriously
when the sun is shining. Life seems
to be sort of a joke The world
smiles and you smile with 1t, and all
is ficllleness. 1t is no time beneath the
smiling skies of a pleasant day to
mediate. But gloomy day-what
are we on earth for? From whence
did we come? Whittier do we go? Is
1t all worth while? Should we struggle
on, with the reward so small or end 1t
all? These are the questions that
come to the fellow who sits and gazes
out into the sullen air Of a gloomy
day.
But the beauty of it is, he answers
his own questions to his own satisfac-
ton, and arises from his place at the
window, renewed in strength and in
determination to do the right thing !;
for he comes to understand the
beauty of these gloomy days, to value
them at their worth, and to know that
he who sits and meditates is profited
thereby.

PATRIOTIC HENS RAISE
THEIR OWN WAR GARDEN

Mansfield, GA. A. Arnold,
superintendent Of parks, has a
flock of Rhode Island hens that
planted, cultivated and raised
a war garden that produced
peck Of potatoes. The largest
potato weighed II ounces, the
next one 16 ounces.
The owner says that when po-
tatoes were selling for $4.25 a
bushel last spring his wife was
so economical she pared the po-
tatoes as thin as she possibly
could, then fed the thin parings
to the chickens. Instead Of eat
ing the parings, the chickens
planted them in the barnyard.
All summer long the fowls not
only kept the weeds down in
their war garden, but kept the
bugs off. These patriotic chick
ems did their bit to win the war
by raising "a potatoes from
three stalks that came up from
the thin parings which they con-
served.
