ATLANTA FOLKS UNDERWRITE
\ CIT'V'S VICTORY LOAN QUOTA

Atlanta, Ga, May 10.--The action
of one hundred and eleven citizens of
Atlanta in underwriting the unsub-
scribed balance of the city's quota in
the Nict2ry Loan campaign, pulls the
city out of the worst hole into which
it has fallen in many years. OF course,
large amount of the fund which
these men agreed to guarantee was
subscribed at the rally Friday night,
but there is no gainsaying the fact
that so far as the general public is
concerned, Georgia's capital had pre-
pared itself to throw up the sponge.
New optimism was evidenced at the
division headquarters as the last day
Of the campaign. 1t was freely pre-
Gicted that the district and even the
state, far behind on the figures, would
be beyond their goals when the last
returns shall have been tabulated.

Frances Pitt in the National Review,

That phrase, dumb animals" be-
trays more ignorance of the life around
us than an other ever invented by
our race, for, though no species save
man has an articulate language, no
one who has watched and attended to
the ways of birds and beasts can
doubt that they very thoroughly man
age to convey TO each other their
wishes and intentions. Each, in Its
own way, communicates with its fell
lows. and if the language is not our
language 1t at any rate serves their
purpose exceedingly well. Certainly
the amount of individuality that there
is among the different specimens OF
the same species can only be realized
by those who have had much to dc
with wild creatures. No one mammal
or bird is ever in character and be-
havior the exact duplicate Of the next
each differs ii some way from its
neighbor, SO YOU can never depend on
any two animals doing exactly the
same thing under the same circum-
stances-in fact, we find that individ
uality reigns as supreme Throughout
nature as it does throughout man, but
then, after all, man is part of no.
