SENDS HUBBY TO COLLEGE
IN ORDER TO LEARN MORE

SAN FRANCISCO, March 5.-Mrs.
Esther Bercoxitz Kehoe is sending
her husband to college today because
she believes in business efficiency. She
is designer for a tailoring company.
If a woman discovers she can earn
more than her husband, says Mrs.
Kehoe, the husband should be educat-
ed to such an extent that his earning
ability is equal to that Of his wife.
And while hubby is getting this edu-
cation, wife should support the fam
lily, she believes.
Il see nothing out of the ordinary

A DEED AND A WORD.


? y + = + 4 + + y =
A little stream had lost its way
Amid the grass and fern;
A passing stranger scooped a well,
Where weary men might turn;
He vailed it in and hung with care
A ladle at the brink;
Es thought not of the deed he did,
But judged that all might drink.
He passed again and 10! the well,
BY summer never dried,
Had cooled ten thousand parchin
tongues,
And saved a life beside.
A nameless man amid crowd
That thronged the daily mart,
Let fall word of hope and love,
Unstudied from the heart;
A whisper on the tumult thrown,
A transitory breath
1t raised a brother from the dust,
IL saved a soul from death.
u germ. o fount! 0 word Of love!
o thought at random cast!
Va we're but little at the first,
Bat mighty at the last.

I'VE have 10000 Georgia women ear
nestly engaged in working for the va
rious improvements, civic, educational
and economical, urged by the most adj
vanced thinkers of the present day,
said Mrs. Nellie Peters Black, presi-
dent of the State Federation of Won
ems clubs, in an interview given on
Saturday to representative of the
Times Recorder.
Mrs. Black was visitor to Amerl-
Gus for the purpose of delivering az
address at the agricultural rally held
here on Saturday at the Carnegie Li-
brary auditorium.
THE State Federation now numbers
among it's members $4,000 of Georgia
most progressive women and the aims
of the organization are of such char
acter as to merit the support not only
OF the citizenry in general, but alsd
that of the officials of the common
wealth l may say that the various
departments of the state government
are cooperating to the fullest extent
in many of the efforts now being put
forward by the State Federation, and
this feature of the work is most graf
flying. as it indicates that our view
point is appreciated and understood.
"The Ellis public health commits
sion bill, with its provisions for more
systematic attention to the vital needs
of the people of the state as regards
sanitation, ETC., has the hearty support
of the federated clubs, and it is with
eIation that we note the progress thai
is being made along this line during
the past few months.

CHICAGO GRAINS.

CHICAGO, July 30.-Largely as a result of the settlement of the switch mems strike, holders of corn showed q disposition today to indulge in gen eral profit-taking sales. Accordingly, the market had a downward slant most of the time. Prices closed steady, unchanged to 5s cents lower, with September 1S35s to 1.63% and De cember 1.1S% to 1.1S7s. Wheat fin ished unsettled, cents off to two cents up, at 2.62 July and PA Sep tember. The outcome in oats ranged from one cent decline to A cent ad- vance and in provisions from a set back of to a rise of 10@12 cents.
 Welcome rains both sides of the Ca nadian border, giving relief from hot winds which had been threatening the spring wheat crop, turned prices down grade for the September delivery of wheat.
 Provisions averaged lower, chiefly in consequence of a break which took place in hog prices.
