Big Red Apple, where they raise
fruit as delicious as hat with which
Eve tempted Adam. For Eve knew
her business, and the apple Is Some
Fruit. And I saw the trees laden
with fgruit, and the ground beneath
them growing green with Alfalfa.
And I asked, Whence cometh the
water, with which these trees are
nourished? Fer the cloud drop not
their rain. neither is there melting
snow upon thedistant hills.
And they showed me deep well
that went down an hundred cubits.
And at the bottom | saw an Engine
that worked with Electric Power, and
rested not day nor night.
And the engine lifted the water in
a Mighty Stream so strong that
when it reached the surface they
had to hurl it against a wall, and
divide it into smaller streams lest it
tear up the very ground And the
water flowed unto Many Orchards,
and watered the trees.

ED ORAL .

a MONG the several matters of
particular interest coming under
the observation of the South Georgia
newspaper publishers visiting Cor
dele this week for one Of their quar-
terly business conferences was the
public library there and the efficient
and novel manner in which it is zerv-
ing the p, olle of the rural districts.
The Triton Gazette tells of this ser
vice in the following way:
Crisp county has circulating
rural school library that is a
model of its kind The Carnegie
Library at Cordele has provided
canvas bags and every month these
are filed with books and sent out
by parcel post to the rural schools.
Each school has the use of the bag
of books for a month when they
are sent in and another bag sent
out. The books sent to one school
this month are sent to another
school next month, so that a few
hundred volumes serve the rural
school for the year The schools
are highly pleased with the service
and many of them send in for the
books, saving the expense of par
eel post, although this is nomi-
nal The plan has been in oper-
alton for several years, and grows
in popularity"
