MISS JONES WORKING
 WITH BEE INDUSTRY

Elba, June 12-(Special)--It is re- ported by Miss Pearl Jones, Coffee county home demonstration agent, that as a direct result of some dem onstrations in transferring bees from the old fashioned hives to modern hives late in April. already 63 col onies have been transferred from old box hives to 20 modern hives and that all these bees are doing well.
 These bee onstrations were put on by Miss Jones, who was as sisted by Miss Elizabeth Mauldin, bee specialist for the extension serv- ice, with headquarters at Auburn, and Miss Helen Johnston. district home demonstration agent for south Alabama.
 In addition to the direct results already accomplished there is now d general growing interest in bee keeping in Coffee county. and while very few big apiaries are expected. it is thought that great many Coffee county farmers will want at least a few colonies to product honey for home use and a surplus for sale.

 BEING FEATURED
County Agents Greatly En- couraged By Interest
 Taken By Boys

 From the Tennessee valley county agent, ". c. Johnston of Morgan county, tells of a county club rally day held at Harselle, and says that to describe it as glorious success is stating it very mildly" MT. John ston had the active cooperation of the Hartford Chamber of Commerce and practically every business and professional man in Hartselle, an. the results of the day are above de- scribed. Among the prominent speakers were Mayor A. P. Howell, County Agent J. T. High of Florence. R. A. Burlcson and Professor Hays, county superintendent of education.
 Reporting from the extreme south ern part of the state. G. V. Stelzen- muller of Baldwin county states that two boys have already definitely de- cided to attend the annual club boys encampment at Auburn July 25-3O, and that several others are expected to make the trip.
 Looking forward to the improve ment of the Sumter county hogs, County Agent R. G. Arnold delivered 70 pigs of the best breeding that could be found to his club boys who are now busy caring for them and getting ready to put them on exhi- bition at the Sumter County fair at Livingston this fall. J. w Sartain of Walker county spent most of the week visiting club members and holding club meetings, and found that practically all of his corn club boys have their acres in first-class condition

{" Girls Offer Defense

Stirred by articles in the Literary
Digest, written by clergymen, College
professors, editors and student edi-
tors Of college papers, all on the sub
ject Of the present day dress and
manners of our young ladies', some
Of them have taken up the cudgels
In their own defence. All of them
are inclined to poke fun at the self
styled specialists" in women's dress.
Thus, Mrs. H. Fletcher Brown, OF
Wilmington, Del, who explains that
she is "one OF. the girls in the forties.
who has struggled through all the
difhculties of the past styles, objects
to specialist opinion in general on
the ground that it so often contradicts
itself, even when it doesn't find difd-
culties where none exist. Give the
girls a chance to speak for them
selves" she demands, and proceeds
with this attack on the specialist in
general
II you feel perfectly well, and hap.
pen to run into nose specialist, he
viii probably find what to him are
glaring defects, while to you your
nose seems perfectly good nose and
has served you comfortably and hap
ply for many years. II, however, you
take his advice and allow him to cut
your nose all up to suit his own ideas,
the chances are it will be nuisance
to you for the rest Of your life, and
the next specialist whose victim you
will be will be nerve specialist.
Each of these specialists is looking
for perfection in the machinery of his
own department, while the super
visor of all the departments namely,
the owner of the nose has. to use
all the machinery Of all his depart
ments together and can not live for his
nose alone. Furthermore, if you go
to dozen nose specialists, the chances
!. are that each one will consider his
predecessor bungling fapl any way
and will assure you that something
quite different should be done.
Do, then, she urges, take look at
the subject OF clothes and morals
from the standpoint Of one Of the girls
who has to live with the clothes and
morals that all these clergymen,
schoolteachers, newspaper writer's,
and Legislators seem about to dictate. ;"

HUMANE PARAGRAPHS FOR THE
MoNTH or AUGUST

Kindness to all living creatures
! is the motto of the Humane Society.
Surely Editor Harris kept this precept
when in Ocala Banner write ups OF
Marion county progress he included a
kindly word for its colored popula-
ton.
Though sensible Humane workers
always admit human lives in mad dog
scares'' are worth more than lives
of dogs-yet shooting them on the
streets is in itself a risk to people and
animals not mad; shooting dogs just
because. they are muzzleless, multi
plies the injustice ITO dumb crea-
tures, and likelihood of danger to
human travelors-by. Will not wise,
kindly folks find ont of these two
customs more or less common in
Florida this summer?
