Wireless As 4 Hobby

" HE constant increase in interest among
everyday citizens in the wireless sug-
gests that the day is not far off when
communication by this means will be as
common as the telephone.
There are today scores of men in Atlanta
who are making wireless their hobby, who
escape from their businesse nightly, not to
dances or the movies or social functions or
even the quiet of the domestic hearth, but
to the wireless apparatus they have install
ed in their own homes; there to sit for
hours, conversing with Pittsburg and Key
Wset, hearing music from Chattanooga,
snatching tt latest messages from steam
ships far out in mid-ocean.
While generally the use of wireless in this
part of the country, outside of government
stations, is more or less of a novelty, it's
popularity suggests that more practical pur-
poes for these radio stations shortly will be
developed.
For instance, the United States weather
bureou shortly will install daily sadio-mar-
ketgram service, which will be available to
every farmer who will go to the slight ex-
pense of setting up wireless receiving set
for $50 or SIS. The department of agricul-
ture will furnish the information, and the
postoffice department will scatter it broan-
cast over the country by wireless. Getting
this complete service of weather forecasts
and irop reports may save the farmer thou
sands of dollars.
A further possible development in the
wireless mould be it's installation in the Of
flee of the business man, where it will keep
hi mposted on trade events almost the IN
slant they occur in cities thousands of miles
distant The time may even come In the
present gene alton when housewives will re-
ceive information on food prices, weather
forecasts, even fashion hints in their own
homes.
Con,nara+iva1v recent is the use OF wire
I-ss in anv way: that it should be developed
swiftly to the point where it will play an i'm
portant part in the lives of all, is not
dream

Where New York Mods
1EW YORK is evidently getting drowsy in

n JEW YORK is evidently getting droWsy IN
M it's old age, for the arrival in that city
of an actress heralded 1.-The cham
pion croquet player of Australla mas 1alleu
to arouse excitement. The Herald mentions
her in passing but fails to give even the lady S
name and nowhere in this or any other paper
does diligent search reveal columns descrlp-
ing her dress, her hats, her taste In colo
cream and literature, the crowds that
stormed her hotel seeking an autograph
There is something strange in this, for
never before has New York failed to pay
proper Mysteries to champion of anything
be it the queen of the divorces or the Home
Run King Can it be that the blight of pro-
hibtion has robbed the city of that charming
naivette, that eagerness to wax enthusiastic
on the slightest provocation, which u Henry
has made such apt use of in his tales descr1b-
ing "Ba gdad-on-the-S Subway" as the greatest
of ''rube villages?"
Even a lady croquet champion, one fancles
would have the power to stir New York, for
the city has turned somersaults over checker
champions, lost Turkish haremites. baby lions
and almost everything else the Imagination
of ambitious press agents could conceive.
Perhaps the ancient game of croquet no
longer is able to futter the public pulse. And
a shame this is, indeed, for surely cham
pion croquet player is as worthy of homage
as many another champion. The fact OF 1t is
that croquet has been neglected both by the
classes and the masses. No one hears Of
crowds flocking to the croquet courts, or
cheering for a well-hit croquet ball; for that
matter. there appear to be no croquet courts
to flock to.
There is yet hope, however. New York
unless totally senile, will discover the lady
"roquet champion sooner or later. Then we
may expect revival of the game, pother
and ado about mallets and balls, weighty
discussion on wickets, until croquet is over
whelmed by the next New York wonder.

TREE PROTECTION
By DR.. Frank Crane

The President of the United States has
issued the following proclamation:
Whereas, the destruction by forest fires
in the United States involves an annual loss
of approximately $20,000,000 and the devas-
tation Of approximately 12,500,000 acres Of
timber land and other natural resources, and
Whereas, when the present deplorable
large area of non-productive land is being
greatly increased by $4,000 more forest
fires each year, and
"Whereas, tie menace of future timber
shortage threatens to become present eco
nOmic fact seriously affecting our social and
industrial welfare, and
whereas, large percentage of the forest
fires causing the annual waste of natural re-
sources may be prevented by increasing care
and vigilance on the part of citizens;
Therefore, I, Warren G. Harding Presi-
dent of the United States, do urge upon the
governors of the various states to designate
and set apart the week of May 1928, 1921,
as forest protection week, and to request all
citizens of their states to plan for that week
such educational and instructive exercises
as shell bring before the people the serious
and unhappy effects of the present unneces-
essary waste by forest fires, and the need of
their individual and collective, efforts in con-
serving the natural resources of America"
In no other direction is the American vice
Of Waste so threatening as in this matter
of Tree Waste.
Wood is the very basis of our business
world. Everybody needs and uses it, from
the man who makes a chicken coop to the
architect who erects a dwelling.
1t is high time that we learned to appre-
ciate our forests, to stop their wanton de-
struction, and to have definite policy of
restoration.
For every tree cut down one ought to be
planted.
. The Presidents message therefore is time
ly, and it is to be hoped that every State
in the Union will respond with enthusiastic
cooperation.

Y HAVE a letter from girl who writes:

Y HAVE letter from a girl who writes
81 am engaged to a man who makes
A a comfortable living, but he is very proud,
and he does not want to marry until he
can give me a fine house, and a car, and
expensive clothes. I do not want to wait
love him well enough to work for him and
endure poverty with him. | can't ask him
to marry me right away, when he wants to
put the wedding off. Won't you please do
it for me?"
Certainly, my dear.
Haste to the wedding, Mr.. Man. The time
to sit down to the banquet is when the feast
is piping hot, not after everything has grown
lukeWarm and flabby and has lost it's flavor.
You do not realize it now, but nothing grows
stale sooner than romantic love- Somehow
a long engagement loses it's pep and ginger,
and when it does eventually end in wedding
bells, they are not the airy, fairy bells of
dreamland, but the prosaic dinner bell.
You may ask how love that gets it's
bloom worn off during few years of a be-
trothal, will endure the long, long years of
matrimonV. Tie two things are entirely diff
ferent The glory of an engagement is it's
illusions, but the blessedness of marriage is
that it hasn't any illusions, that it knows
u for what you are, and, in spite of it,
owes you still.
Of course, no man has any right to marry
: woman, no matter whether he is young or
DID, if he hasn't some good, reliable way OF
rOviding her with bread and butter and a
meter. IL IS a criminal tnlng Tor man
o establish a family and bring children into
he world whom other people have to support,
but it is not necessary for him to wait until
he can provide his household with cake and
imOUsines before he takes unto himself a
wife
Many men make this mistake. They put
off marrying until they accumulate fortunes.
Sometimes this is a matter of personal self
shness. Their own individual ease and COM
'Ort look better to them than any woman does.
They are not willing to give up their good
clothes, their country club, their theaters,
their amusements,y as they would have to do
if the money that enables one to live in lux
ury had to be spread over the expenses OF
a family.
Often, however, man puts off marrying
until he is middle aged, because he loves
I woman too well to ask her to face poverty
With him. He is not willing to take her from
~ fathers comfortable home to humber
one He cannot bear to think of her gong
abby for his sake, OF of her soft white
.onds growing hard and calloused working
or him.
50 he lets the love time of life go by,
for romantic love belongs as exclusively TO
nth as apple blooms do to spring. A MD
e aged man and woman may feel for each
her a deep, peaceful congenial friendship
ut that is all Not for them are the glory
I'd the thrill, and the circling wings OF ro-
nance. They are the sole prerogative OF
0lth. and to miss them is to have missed
90 diyi>e draught of life.

DOROTHY DIX TALKS DON'T WAIT
THY DIX

Inc man who puts off marrying until he
Il give his wife a satin-lined jewel case in
oh to live, is depriving her of the great
est happiness that can ever come to woman.
.4er husband.
No woman except of the most contempt
BILE type, wants to be parasite No woman
who loves her husband, loves him for what
he can give her. Real love means service,
and every woman who is fit for man to
marry, yearns, above everything else, to be
her husbands partner, his comrade, who
fights shoulder to shoulder with him in his
battle for success.
There are no stories of adventure SO ex-
citing, there are no other lives so full Of in
terest as those of the poor and ambitious
young people who have struggled and hoped,
and planned, and triumphed together. Nor
can there be any bond between a man and
woman so strong as that of having sacrificed
and endured together.
If you will go to the wife of any of our
rich and famous self-made men, and ask
her what was the happiest time of her life
she will not say that it is nov, when she
lives in palace, and wears imported frocks,
and has dozen servants to wait on her.
She will say that her best days were those
in which she did her own work, and scrimped
every nickel, and saved for weeks to buy her
new pair Of shoes, and in which she and
John sat up half the night figuring out how
they could get the money to enlarge their
little grocery, or when John read her the
manuscript Of his new play, or showed her the
model of his new invention.
1t is a chivalrous impulse that makes a
man feel that he doesn't want to force the
woman he loves to work for him, but 1t is
mistaken impulse, none the less, 1t is one
of the curious facts of human nature that
the more we do for people, the more we love
them, and this is especially true of women.
The woman whose husbands comfort and
well-being lies in her hands, the woman whose
husbands food must be cooked by her, his
clothes washed by her, his money saved by
her, has a feeling for him that the rich wom-
an never has for her husband. 1t is call
upon the eternal motherhood of woman, akin
to that which makes mother have tender
ness for her afflicted child that she does not
have for the one that is we'll, and strong,
and self-sufficient.
Nor does any man do a kindness to his
wife by keeping her in idleness. The only
happy women in the world are those whose
hands are full Of worth while work.
1t takes a lot of courage, and grit, anu
self-sacrifice, to make marriage success. II
girl is so scared of poverty, and having TO
work to deny herself, that she is afraid TO
undertake the great adventure with one VINO
MS his fortune still to make, she is too poor
thing for man to bother with But II she
las the high heart to dare Fate with man

grab her while he get her.

Monument to Veterans

1t is fifth that the patriotic people of
Georgia should erect lasting monuments to
the memory of the Confederate veterans and
those WI o fought in the rec ent world war
The Savannah Morning News carried the sub
joined editorial reference to Moores bridge,
which has been dedicated to the memory Of
the veterans of the two wars:
"Out of the y meeting at Moore's bridge
yesterday came the spontaneous suggestion
that the structure be !edicat to the memory
of the spirit of the men who fought for the
Confederacy in the sixties and the men who
fought for world democracy in the great war.
That is happy sentiment and the bridge
will serve not only the ways of peace, but
ais as a memorial of service to men who of
fered, and me of whom gave, their all fol
the sake of their country. Nothing finer
could be-"
The memorial bridge links the memory Of
grandfathers, fathers and sons in one loyal
chain Of service. Long may 1T endure.

Geographic Names
= HE Royal Geographical Society is per-
forming genuine service to adults

forming a genuine service to adults,
as we'll as to school children, by it's
nunciation of geographical names, partic-
efforts to standardize the spelling and pro-
nunciation of geographical names, particular
ly the many which have attained such prom
inence during and since the war.
The Society not only has issued its first
list of names mostly of European towns and
cities, with simplified and standardized
spelling, but it has secured the adoption of
the spelllngs by many nations and paved the
way for their general use in all countries.
Among the examples of names standard
lied by the Society are the port of Danzig,
which is to be just that, not Ddansk or
Giedainys, or Dantsic or Dantsig; Yuoslavia,
not Yougoslavia or Jugo-Slavia; Strassbourg,
instead of Strassburg or Strasburg; Constan-
tinople, as ever, in place of attempts at
stIanbul or Byzantium or Tsar-grad.
Kiev is not to be spelled Kiyef Kieff,
and the gulf off the southern coast of
France is to be known merely the Gulf
of Lions, though some may insist on the
Golfo de Leon.
Occasionally the Society ran into a real
stumper. The town of Przemys1, which was
the bane of copyreaders and lynotypers for
mnay months of war, evidently must still
be sneezed when spoken, for the Society
gives this pronunciaton-"Pzh 1t
needs further simplifying Eve the most
nasal AnglO-SaXon cannot compass it.
But the Society is doing its best. Nor is
the suggestion out of order that, when 1T
gets through with Europe, it turn it's atten-
ton to our shores Is New Orleans to be
accented on the penult ante-penult? What
is really correct-Housto1 in wow" or
Houston as in 'goose?" And what of those
people who call Birmingham Cumming
hum" or Obi dmmagen?"
We really need a Geographic Society near
er home.

He Invented the Flour Sack

T'E does not have 10 be a great soldier or
II celebrated statesman famous au-
- thor, or painter, who would win I'M
dyffg. fame. Occasionally the world remem-
bers. and hOnors one who has contributed to
its-welfare some simple thing such as the
can-epener or the warming pan.
Thus, in York, S. c., the other day was
celebrated the twenty-seventh anniversary Of
the death of Thomas Smith Jefferys, miller
plain workingman, yet prophet not with
out honor in his own country Jefferyi in
vented the flour sack.
In 1852, when he was d miller of York
wheat was one of the main crops of South
Carolina, and -four was always shipped in
barrels. Jefferys like the others in his trade
depended on the cooper to keep him Stoke /
with empty barrels.
In his case necessity truly was the mother
of invention. He ran out of barrels on the
verM day w en- he had promised a certain
shipment of flour. Any business man can
imagine his predicament Probably Jefferys
secured the town for barrels. Possibly he
