AT MEMORY's DOOR.
BY Frank L. Stanton.

It's this for the rhyme and the reason
The song still came after the sigh,
And so much Of JOY in each season,
We don't tell season Goodbye
For when 1t is going,
The rich and the poor
They reap from its sowing
~ Memory's Door.
Summer and Autumn, we greet them,
Glad of their glimpses of sky,
Friends, when at morning we meet
them,
And Night never murmurs Good

We still would enfold them
And love them the more
Friends still. to hold them

doubling of the number of voters by
woman suffrage.
This strikes at the very heart of
the South's share in the government
of the United States. The southern
people, like Massachusetts, under
stand that a large class of illiterate
citizens is great governmental bur-
den, more of a governmental burden
than an equal number of intelligent
voters, and that representation in
congress based on their numbers is a
just apportionmenti The South's in
terest in this election is vital and
southern democrats should do all
they can for democratic success. The
best way they can help is TO sub
scribe literally to the democratic
campaign fund. Every democrat
ought to bear this in mind when
asked to contribute to the demo-
cratic fund.

Pricking the Bubble.

PrIcking the Bubble.
It is rarely that any boom bubble
is pricked as quickly as that of the
widely heralded oil gusher in De
Funiak Springs. A week ago the big
find was made and all De Funiak
Springs went wild. The DeFuniak
Springs newspaper. the Breeze, was
hoaxed as well as individuals through
out the state, and on the strength OF
the "gusher" produced an Extra" with
shrieking headlines. Oil companies
were formed almot at moments no.
tice, and visitor swarmed into De
Funiak Springs from all places
throughout the surrounding country.
Further Investigations however, dis
closed the fraud that had been per-
petrated, oil being piped into the creek
where the precious fluid was flowing
in sufficient quantities to raise visions
of wealth untold in the minds of the
optimistic.
A number of such frauds it is said
have been worked in Florida and other
states during the past years, and it
would be hard to find words suffi-
GENTLY severe for the condemnation of
the person or persons responsible for
perpetrating such a hoax. Not only
does the whole thing reflect discredit-
ably on the people of a community, on
the community itself, but on the state,

of which has now been assumed by
the council of the League of Nations,
che Swedish prime minister, Hjalmar
Branting, says: Sweden has complete

Appealing for Funds.

I
Whether or not the republican party
determined to raise a slush fund tc
purchase the presidency will. perhaps
remain a mystery, and the matter is
not so very important.
1t is important, however, that the
| members of the democratic party rec
ognize their responsibilities in the
matter of furnishing the funds with
which to defray the necessary expenses
of a legitimate Campaign.
Appeals are being made by the
national executive committees to all
democrats to make such contributions
as they can to the campaign funds.
There are transportation expenses to
pay, literature must be prepared and
circulated, stamps must be purchased
office rent must be provided for and
the usual and altogether proper ex-
penses of a campaign must be taken
care of.
The democratic party cannot look to
the great business interests of the
country to contribute. The party has
very few rich men who can be de-
pended upon to be generous contribu-
tors. The necessary money must come
from the rank and file of the people.
No assessments are being made by
the party managers and no allotments
are being apportioned to states, dis
tricts, counties or communities. and,
hence it is an individual matter as to
whether the platform of the party and
its literature are properly placed be-
fore the people or whether speakers
may be secured to carry the demo-
cratic message to the whole people.
1t it individual because each democrat,
woman as well as man, must feel his
responsibility and respond to the call.
Contributions should be sent to w.
