AWAIT VETERANS
OF THREE SHORT WARS

Atlanta.-Many veterans of the
Spanish-American war the Philippine
instruction and the China relief ex-
petition are eligible for pensions under
the recently enacted Sells act, accord
ing to Senator William J. Harris,
whose secretary, Cranston Williams, is
now in Georgia Besides pension for
physical disability, a provision has
been made for veterans on account of
age and length of service at the fol-
lowing rate per month: 81 years, SIP;
o. years, $18; IL years, $24; and IS
years, $50.
Commissioner Of Pensions Sattzga-
Der, at Washington, has prepared full
information and application blanks,
which, it is stated, will be furnished on
request.
1t is necessary under the law that
a person show service for ninety DAYS
or more and it not entitled under the
new pension act for an allowance be-
cause of age, he must be physically in
capacitated of a permanent character,
not due to his own vicious habits.

HOKE SMITH JUNIOR
MAKES HIS ADVENT

Atlanta,-There is gladness in the
today, in fact, he has been smiling
long and frequently for several days.
Reason: Senator Smith has new
grandson and the lusty youngster has
been named for him, Hoke Smith, jr.
Hoke Smith, jr. is the newest ad-
dition to the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Marion Smith, of Atlanta. Mr.. Marion
Smith is the only son of Georgia's
senior senator He is the father of
twins, now six years ond, hence Hoke
Smith jr. had two sisters to welcome
him.
Senator Smith has nine grandchild-
rem. Another grandson, Hoke Smith
Simpson, was named for him, but
Hoke Smith jr. is the first Junior in
the Smith family.
The father of the new bow is
prominent lawyer, being member of
the we'll known legal firm of Little.
POWELL, Smith and Goldstein, with Of
ficess in the Citizens and Southern
bank building. The Senator himself
was a lawyer too, before he got into
politics, became governor of the state
and went to the United States Senate.
Whether Hoke Smith jr., will decide
to follow the footsteps of his father
and grandfather and take the law or
get into politics is question he will
probably answer for himself some
years hence.

Mrs Spider will always eat Mr..
Spider if she can catch him, quite
soon after they are mated. The fe-
male spider, too, will frequently de-
YOUR her rejected suitors. Her SWANS

this being the method usually resorted

The female, If she thinks one Of them
would make a toothsome morsel, eats

cides to chose a mate she will dance
