Tom Watson Beats
 Strong Competitors

N EORGIA'S democratic primary VI brought out an unusually heavy vote yesterday. There were many surprises. Tom Watson, Sena tor Hoke Smith and Governor Dorsey were in the race for the Senate.
 The present incumbent was SUD- posed by people outside of Georgia to have secure hold on his seat, but with three candidates running experi- enced politicians had been predicting for some time that Watson would be the winner.
 Georgia has a peculiar primary law. It is known as the county unit l system. In run-off it is possible that the candidate leading in the pri- mary election may be defeated. but last nights figures leave little doubt Smith, after long years of service ir public life, goes to the discard. He is growing old and whatever politica popularity he once had it has beer steadily waning of late. Governor

BALD HEADS, INCORPORATED

as body and had their first banquet at
 out the country. Jokesters and comic cartoonists avidy seized upon it. News papers and magazines printed pictures of
 the men for whom countless brands of
 hair tonics had battled, but in vain. Since
 then the pioneers have met yearly, except during the two years that the country was at war. Their fame has grown faster than their bald spots. Their number has increased until it includes men from nearly every state in the union. They have robbed the bald-headed joke if it's savor and given dignity and distinction to the cranium without natural shade and adornment.
 In it's articles of incorporation the new club says that it's purpose Is not only for the promotion of fraternity and
 mutual enjoyment, but also to help worthy causes. Who, then will decry its effort ito inculcate and exemplify the
 tial to make a man happy or handsome? Or who will dispute it's belief that raven locks or auburn tresses count for naught as sign of true worthiness?" A woman s glory may be her hair, but mans, as the Bald Head Club declares so badly yet l so vividly, is something else again. For what shall it profit a man if he have the ] ringlets of a Grecian god and no credit at | the butcher shop?"

yOUR OLD TIN HAT

By Lieut.. J. Hunter Wickersham' Killed Near I.iney, in~the St. Mihiel Offen- sive. The mist hangs low and quiet on
 ragged line of hills
 There's a whispering of wind across
 the flat, You'd be feeling kind of lonesome if it wasn't for one thing The batter of the raindrops on your
 old tin hat. An you just can't help a-figuring-sit-
 ting there alone
 About this war and hero stuff and
 that. And you wonder if they haven't sort of
 got things twisted up.
 While the rain keeps up it's batter on
 your old tin hat. When you step off with the outfit to
 do your little bit
 You're simply doing what you're
 s'posed to do-. And you don't take time to figure what
 you gain or lose It's the spirit of the game that brings you through. But back at home she's waiting. writ ing cheerful little notes. And every night she offers up . prayer And just keeps on a-hoping that her soldier boy is safe The Mother of the boy who's over there. And fellows. she's the hero of this great big ugly war. k And her prayer is on the wind across the flat, And don't you reckon maybe it's nher tears, and not the rain. itS That's keeping up the batter on your old tin hat

LaFollette Candidates
 Beaten in Wisconsin
X x x

6NHE defeat of the principal La
 u Toilette candidates in the Wis consin primaries probably means that the man who has dominated the state politically for years is no longer to be reckoned with, either in state or na- tional politics.
 Though not a candidate himself, LaFollette was fighting for his polit- ical life. The men he supported rep resented his faction and his radical views. That they have been beaten is gratifying. It should please the republican party, which has no love for LaFollette, but regards Senator Lenroot as an able man. He was the choice of the party for reelection His defeat would have been a victory for radicalism.
 The political affiliations of La Toilette have long been un-American This was sharply brought out during the war by his attitude toward the American government. He has beer tower of strength to the pro-Ger' man voters of Wisconsin. A large par of the states population is composed of native-born Germans or people o1 German descent.
 LaFollette's downfall will not cur, Wisconsin of it's political vagaries but the elimination from power of it.

 IM Connecticut, the Bald Head Club - of America becomes a permanent body that has grown from a local mer- riment-making society into a national or ganization with purpose The club has had curious and amusing history, not the most sober fact of which is that the man who was really responsible for it's definite formation and the spread of it's reputation beyond the boundaries of Nut meg Land dates his present excellent crop of hair from the day that he became in- terested in bald-headedness as a virtue and a first aid to good fellowship
 Twenty years ago, the records-run, six citizens of Falls Village, Conn, the sum tctal of whose hairs was easy to count, sat on the steps of the general store dis cussing affairs of the day when a young man trained his camera on them. Hat less all. the full glory of their denuded domes shone forth. Ten years later, an editor from the neghboring town of Ca- naan saw the picture. His own hair was then in swift retreat Out of frienc4 y feeling he sought the six to suggest that they form a club for self-protection and consolation. After his suggestion was adopted, he mentioned the club from time to time in his newspaper and little by little aroused the public interest in it,

Senator Harding a CoIorless Candidate

7T7HE one kind of man that Ameri- cans have no use for is the colorless type. Candidate Harding falls under that heading. He becomes more and more indefinite.
 This is part of what he said about the League of Nations in his Labor Day speech:
 It is folly to talk about specific
 programme The specific thing
 must be evolved out of a confer
 ence of the best thought and the
 highest talent which can be
 brought together, mt the dictation
 of one spokesman.@
 This means literary nothing except opposition to the league approved by President Wilson and his colleagues after months of deliberation. If there is no specific programme now, when will there be one? Is the league to settle the affairs of the world twenty years hence, or now? Are we dealing with an indefinable future, or with a very acute present?
 America will ask Candidate Hard ing where he is going to get this "best thought and highest capacity It is going to ask him if men more capable can be found than those who preside over the affairs of nations. who directed the war and who know the peoples affected by that war and bound up for veal or woe in the terms of peace.
 l MT. Harding is reported to have in- dicated that he might carry his sug- gestion for a new association of na- tions a step further in the near flu ture. He may lift some of the ob- scurity that now enshrouds his league policy; he may not. Samuel Gompers said it all. Of MT. Harding he declared: "He is a nice respectable gentleman, but what else?"

LUKE M'LUKE SAYS

Funny how a woman's feet never ket cold when she is wearing new set of furs around her neck.
 A wife is a person who wants to be coaxed for a whole hour to do some thing that she really wants to do.
 Of course, it is nobody's business. But it makes a skinny girl feel good to know that she has a few dimples where you can't see them.
 A man gets so lonesome that hs has to go out and roam around. But girl never gets lonesome as long as she has a good-sized mirror on her dresser.
 When she is IS she'll believe any, thing you tell her. but whom she is 25 you'll have to produce your Eskimos. If you do not like a man. why don't you tell HIM instead of telling every body but him?
 Modern girls are wiser than the old time girls in some ways. The modern girl knows that there is norway to look fascinating when you are wearing a fascinator.
 If some married men had dollar for every time they have kissed their wives in the last year they wouldn't have three cents.
 l After a man has been married long enough he knows that the only way to argue with your wife is to get towel and gag yourself
 | And if there were Twentieth Amendment prohibiting the wearing of side whiskers and long faces, the Holy | Joes would protest against such an ob- vious interference with Personal Rights. i A lot of the Princesses seem to inn agine that Refinement means turning
 up your nose at other people l If a girl comes down hard on her I heels when she walks. the betting is 1 that she isn't wearing much excelsior.

BUDENNY'S END

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
 1T was Budenny's genius that started
 the armies of bolshevism on their vic S torious march from the Dnieper to the Vistula. It was Budennys leadership which carried the red offensive almost to complete triumph. When, owing to the urgings of civilian commisars and the i'm portunities of Moscow politicians, the at tack was pushed beyond the bounds or prudence and disaster impended. it was Budenny who was called upon to save the day and turn the tide of defeat. Budenny did what he could, and almost succeeded. But success was impossible and Budenny's horsemen who chased the Poles from Kiev to Lemberg have been practically destroyed
 Budenny conceived the idea Of relying mainly in cavalry to defeat the Poles. The Russians had an abundance of horses and horsemen at their disposal, the Poles had comnaratiyely few. After the Poles had captured Kiev and were preparing to es- taplish the frontier of 1772, Brdenny, with a powerful force of cavalry, outfianKeu them. threatened their communications and compelled their retreat. The Poies had no way of meeting Budenny's attack. II. r,oved with almost incredible swift ress and was constantly threatening the retreating army with complete destruc- tion. Not till the Polish line was snort ened and strengthened for the final de- fense of Warsaw and Lemberg did Bu- denny find it impossible either to oreaN tha defense or menace it's flank.
 For long time after they had lost the l battle of Warsaw the bolshevists re- mained stationary in the Lemberg resion' obstinately refusing to give ground oefore the vigorous Polish attacks. The last TOT Torn hope of the reds was counter --- tack against the extreme Polish 1sn' which had undoubtedly been weakened to reinforce the northern armies.
