The Heads of a Great Fair

THE election of Mr.. J. Oscar Mills as
! president of the Southeastern Fair to
succeed Mr.. H G Hastings, who after
| five years OF generous service insisted upon
retiring, augurs most happily for the con-
| tinued success of that admirable enterprise.
Since the Fair was launched in 1915 Mr..
| Mills has been it's steadfast friend and pro-
| moter. AS a member of the Fulton board
| of commissioners he supported liberal pol
| icy of county aid for the exposition, in con-
quence of which improvements worth at
least a quarter of a million dollars have
been made at the Lakewood grounds, to the
encouragement of a great civic undertaking
and to the entire community's advantage.
From the Fairs beginning, moreover, Mr..
Mills has bee one of it's most valued Of
ficers and as director of it's swine show has
done much to make that exhibition helpful
beyond measure to the South and famed the
country over. 1t was thus altogether fitting
that he should be chosen by the Fair Asso-
citation to carry forward a work thai calls
for experience, ability and full-hearteC de-
votion to the upbuilding of Georgia and the
South.
In retiring from the presidency Mr.. H. G.
Hastings carries with him the Warmest ap-
probation, not |olly of his co-workers in the
direction of the Fair, but also of the entire
cit yand region He has given unselfshly OF
time and talent to an enterprise whose stimu-
lating and constructive influence is beyond all
measure. Under sunny and forbidding skies
alike he has labored with enthusiasm that
knew no fatering and with diligence that
could not fail 1t was his good fortune to
have the skilled assistance of Mr.. R. M.
Striplin as managing secretary; and highly
gratifying it is that this experienced and
truly invaluable official will continue to serve
in the administration of President Mills.
Preparations already under ay for the
Southeastern Fair of 1922. May they go ex-
pediously forwa ID to fresh emuires of sue
cess

ONE DAYS TALK
By H. AddingtOn Bruce


r F you would act on tie maxim 'KnoW
| thyself,' here is a suggestion. you may
- find exceedingly helpful:
Take pencil and paper, and, before goint
to bed tonight, set down all you can remem
Der of what you have talked about during
the day.
From the time you rose this morning yor
have been in contact with various people
Necessarily you have had some speech will
them. What, other than business matters
have been the subjects of that speech?
In the street car, bound % your place Of
work, you may remember that you met John
Jones. Did you converse with HIM on an!
subject of real Importance?
During the morning you had a few min
Ltes Of leisure to talk with Bill Brown. Die
you common. on anything except the state
of the weather, the latest police sensation
Or the doings in the sporting or theatrica
world? What did you and Bill Brown talk
about anyway?
And at lunch, when you happened to si
next to Sam Smith Did you and Sam Smith
by any chance, give yourselves the luxury OF
something other than cheap chatter?
If not you may we'll ask, t'Why not?" Is
it, perchance, because you are habitually I'm.
interested in worthwhile things disconnected
from your regular line of work?
If honest analysis of your days talk-to
gether with a glance backward over your
favOrite topics of conversation on other days
forces you to answer this last question il
the affirmative, bethink yourself what il
means.
1t means that you are going through life
in half-alive way. 1t means that existence
has to you little more significance than mer-
existing. 1t means that your thinking
hardly worthy of the name-is, in fact, little
better than an aimless dreaming
Certainly, too, it means that you are fan
from living up to your possibilities as
creative, constructive member of society. You
may be making money in your particular job
and making it with remarkable celebrity. Are
you accomplishing anything beyond the max.
ing of money?
We may be thankful that we have a mil
Mental stocktaking of this sort is indeed
to be recommended to everybody.
1t helps people to discern their shortcom-
ings, to appreciate much they would other
wise miss wi bout knowing that they missed
IL. Hence it helps to keep them stimulated
to honest endeavor to achieve. And en-
deavor at achievement is what makes life
supremely worth the living
This also may be said:
More than to anything else the discomfort
nowadays widely experienced is due to supine
acceptance of whatever chances to come tc
pass, inert living day after day with no def.
mite thought of improvement.
Is that perhaps why you yourself feel di j.
contented?

spread of republican doctrine from China to
India, by way Of the Philippines
Japan and Great Britain then undoubted-
ly have in common the purpose of holding
the undeveloped Asiatic peoples in subjec-
tion and of preventing the spread of demo
cratic doctrine among them. The increase of
American prestige in the Orient means the
rise of the democratic ideal there. The United
States will undoubtedly try to help China
set up a successful republican government.
In this fundamental respect, therefore,
Great Britain's interests are those of Japan
rather than those of the United States
that is, those of the British imperial govern
ment are. There is large and growing mass
Of liberal opinion in England which is SYM
pathetic to the American point Of view. But
the British empire as such maintain
Itself only, if at all, by suppressinS the rise
of democratic ideals in the Orient
It is for this reason that we see in the
newspapers articles of British inspiration
speaking on behalf of the Japanese alliance.
1t is argued in the first place that this al
lance need not re at all ipimical to the
United States. In the second place it is sug
gest.d that the alliance be mad tripartite
agreement to include the United States
All of this argument, say the experts, is
Englan1 would inevitably work against the
United States in the Far East, whatever it's
stated terms. The proposed tripartite agree
ment would merely have the effect Of ty-
ing the hands of the American government

Yet it Is woman is no more married to
man than he is to her. She is no more re-
sponsible for the sunshine in the home than
he is. And it is just as much up to him to
deal with her on diplomatic platform as 1t
is hers to work him so subtly that he never
suspects that she has his number and COM
bination at her finger tips.
If you are a wife are you giver or a
taker? In your heart do you regard your
husband as nothing but bond slave whose
mission in life is to give you all you want?
Do you deny him the comforts of home
and make him live in hotels or boarding
house? Do you feed him out of paper bags
and ruin his digestion by bad food? Does
he come home at night to house of strife,
and reproaches, and determinations because
he doesn't make bigger salary than he doess
and can't give you all that rich women have?
Plenty of women are like that. They do
not feel that it is their duty to give anything
to matrimony. They take all that their hus-
bands lavish upon them and make no return.
They idle away their time while their hus-
bands work They go to cool places in sum-
mer and warm places in winter while their
husbands toll the year round in sultry sum-
mers and icy winters to supply their needs.
Apparently it never occurs to them that
they have any duty towards their husbands,
or are responsible in any way for their sue
cess, or that the wife who doesn't make her
husband a comfortable, peaceful home is a
Stacker and gutter, and has defaulted just
as much on her part of the matrimonial bar
gain as man does who is too lazy and trif-
ling to support his family.
Are you giver or a taker in love? All
of us crave affection and tenderness. We
not only want to be loved, but we want to be
told that we are loved. We hunger and
thirst for little endearments, for caresses, for
words of praise, for some tangible evidence
that those for whom we care, care for us,
and that they appreciate what we do for
them, and that they admire us.
Yet there are men who from the day they
marry woman until they see her lying
asleep in her coffin, never say one solitary
word of love to her, never gives her kiss
that isn't perfunctory peck Of duty that is
an insult, who never show her that they re-
gard her in any other light than as cog in
the household machinery.
And there are women who treat their hus-
bands the same way, yet these men and
women themselves crave the very love and
tenderness they deny to their wives and hus-
bands They want others to be demonstra-
tive to them, and lavish upon them the af-
lection and praise they are too niggardly to
bestow on others
They rarely get it. You can't make pet
of an icicle.r A cold heart chills the en-
thusiasm of all who come in contact with it
and we soon cease loving those who do not
give us love in return
When all is said we have to play the game
of life fairly. We cannot win out by grating
and trying to get more than our share. We
have to go fifty-fifty with the world, and
give as much as we take if we achieve hap
piness

QUIPS< AND QUIDDITIES

Most of the youths of the neighborhood
attended the charity bazaar, and one by one
they drifted to a stall where a tiny kid
glove reposed on satin cushion Attached
to the cushion was a notice which ran:

Tickets were purchased by the score, and

Tennis Cup
 Competition
 FOr'14 Years

Philadelphia, Aug. 31-The cham pionship cup to be comp eted for at the United States Lawn Tennis sin gles title tournament, beginning Fri day of next week, at the Germantown Cricket club, contains the names of more title holders than any trophy of the sort contested in 40 years. The cup first offered in the early eighties must be won three times for per manent possession. The victor's name is inscribed each year.
 Not since 1910 has any man won the cup outright. In that year Wm. A. Larned obtained the trophy and the present cup was placed in com. petition. Since then the following stars have won one or more legs upon it:
 William A. I>arned, Maurice B. Nc Loughlin, Richard Norris Williams 2d., William M. Johnstn, R. Lindley Murray, William T. Tilden, 2d.
 Of these men, Ti1den, Johnston, Williams and Murray are entered this year. Johnston and Williams al- ready have won two legs on the cup and need but one more victory for permanent possession. Victory for either would mean a new cup in 1922-with the names of Larned and Mclaughlin, two of the game S greatest stars.

Clark Lane T. Scores 4 Hit
 With Riddles

President Clark Lane, Jr., of the Bridgeport club, made him. self solid with between 5000 and 4,OO0 boys and girls yesterday, by putting on ''kiddies' Day. MT. Lane ''showed" to the army of youngsters when he tossed the first ball over to Bobby Ware, Albany leadoff man, while Town Clerk Cooney Winton was at the receiving end.
 Mir. Lanes "blow'' to the kid dies was a grand success and came in for many favorable cOm- ments from adult fans. The bleacherS were packed and the overflow was accommodated in the Outf1eld and grandstand. The only thing lacking was a Bridge port victory. Many bleacherites came to the game but found their seats filled, but the major ity elected to sit in with the kids and made a good day out of it.
 Constance Brown, of SC Fourth street, was the holder of ticket No. 43. winning the souvenir baseball and bearing the auto graphs of Mir. Lane, President Dan ONeu and Gene McCann. The little girl appeared highly elated over her good luck. and her two brothers, who shared her seat, were also jubilant when their eyes rested on the prize baseball.
