WALLACE BRUCE
AMSBARY
The Creole French Poet to Be
Here.

When France ceded her possessions
east OF the Mississippi to England in
l763, the French settlers retained
their manners and customs. Their
sovereign might he changed for a con-
sideratlon, but their tongue never |!
Ihe language learned i'm infancy, amid
the vine-clad hills of sunny France
was theirs, with all its softness and
beauty. They clung to their mother
tongue, and their native customs they
could not change.
Wnen through the herOism of Col
George Rogers Clark, the great North
west territory was captured from
the British and the Stars and Strines
were raised over every fort and In
every pioneer hamlet and trading
post, 1t was the third flag that had
doated over the heads of the peace
loving French settlers First the ban
ner of France, then the hated flag Of
England, and last the beautiful "Red,
White and Blue" then In its infancy.
1t was hailed with patriotic delight by
the pioneer French of the Great North
West Territory. They became loyal
Americans but still they retained
their French customs and language.
Some Of them learned no other. Yet
a few Of the younger generation. natu-
rally acquired some American ways
and endeavored to learn the language;
but 1t was badly '"broken" The ma
tive infections of the voice, the
"Frenchy" accents and awkward at

guage were peculiar. Their habits
clung to those pioneers with con-
Btancy that was pathetic.

their traditions, reaching beyond the

past with the present, have done their

Frenchmen will live for ever. One Of

that dying race Ia Mr.. Wallace Bruce

TAKES ON NECESSITIES.

I am writing on the morning of No
vember 1, when postage rates are raised
to every person except government Of
dcers-in the United States of Amer
lea. When this communication reaches
it's destination in The Atlanta Journal
office, it will have cost me more than
80 per cent above what 1 paid in post
age on yesterday If I should write
any of the readers a postal card today
I would be compelled to pay double
postage. If I should go to Atlanta to-
day on a railroad train, my ticket would
cost me per cent more than on yes
terday. AS one single individual, l
should hand over to the government
these enormous increases-90 and so
per cent-ass war toll I have no time
or space to set down the increases on
many other necessities. Similar and
greater than these here mentioned.
During the Civil war, when Confed-
crate money began to cheaper rapidly,
the pioneers were compelled to pay tithes
to the government. One-tenth of
everything we raised from soil was
delivered to the tax collector, from a
goober pea to a bushel of wheat. You
could not pay money for taxes and save
your farm produce, but you were COM
PEELED to use the governments bushel,
half-bushel and peck measures and the
officials stood by to watch the measure
ment. I came across one Of the old re-
ceipts-given to us-after we saw our

THE THREE THINGS THAT COUNT
BACKWARDS, .

CerVantes, the wonderful Spanish
novelist, used the following words:
, "Three things too much and those
things too little are pernicious to man.
"1st. To speak much and know little
"2d. To spend much and have little.
I'D. To presume much and be worth
little"
These are wise words. 1 have known
ignorant people advance opinions on
every subject mentioned. that were the
laughing stock of every company In
which they became noisy orators.
have known people who could not ac-
cumulate because they We're rapac1ous
for things that their means did not al
low them to have-and they went bank
rupt. 1 have seen a few people in my
life, who occupied high position, by rea-
son Of political trickery or luck. who
would have been infinitely more re-
spected in plain life. They pushed
themselves in prominence where their
vuigarity gave them away.
An old French writer thus discoursed:
"Impudence, silly talk-foolish vanity
and vain curiosity are closely allied.
They are all children of one family"

SOLDIERS.

During the Civil war, when wool got
scarcer and scarcer, we that knitted the
socks for the soldiers, doubled a strand
of cotton along with a strand of yarn
thread The cotton made the thread
stronger and where we had been using
two twisted threads of wool yarn, we
could and did use the cotton, and the
knitting was equally satisfactory. One
pound of wool yarn went twice as far
in quantity. We had the wool carded
at Roswell factory and it was a two.
days journey from our home, starting
at daylight and getting home the next
day after dark, with a wagon and good
team of mules We generally bought
cotton yarn for warp at the factory
also, and l had the weavers make my
home folks some cloth, half wool, for
their underwear. I succeeded in secur-
ing several homemade blankets, cotton
warp and wool filling. 1 look back at
that strenuous time with great satisfac-
ton.
We made even edge cut" to use a
homely adage. We wasted nothing that
anybody could eat or wear, and the
scraps went to the slop bucket and
then to the fattening hogs-and we
mended and patched every garment so
long as it was worth the trouble.
l have some of the stockings knitted
for myself, made of fine factory cot
ton. They would answer a good serv-
ice even now. 1 have saved also one
pair of womens stockings that were
knitted by my mother when she was
getting to be an old lady. She was
always busy, and 1 wish 1 could tell
you how many socks and stockings
were knitted by her willing fingers at
that time.
A lady told me few days ago that
she had bought two pairs of black cot
ton stockings at % cents a pair. The
girl, about II years old, wore one pair
to school and the first day there was
a hole in the heel as large as a dime.
1t wouldn't surprise me at all If we
had. to fall back on good home-knit
stockings for growing boys and girls
before this big war comes to an end. l
aEn glad 1 can knit them.
