called to mind a gaunt, elderly per-
son who preached in the church to
which he had frequently accompanied
Sally. But the thought of his fresh
girlish sweetheart married to that man
was bitter to Perry.
Tinkle-tinkle-tinkle-. The tele-
phone bell attached to the instrument
only lust installed with great difficult
.ty tangled in the room behind him.
So recent had its acquisition been that
Perry had not yet become accustomed
to his reconnection with the outside
world.
'Hello-hello-hellol"
Hello, Freckles!"
Perry had a sensation of f~aintness.
"Who-who is this?" he managed to
say, knowing, of course, it wasn't the
one person he knew it wasn't.
"Why-Sally Preston"
"You mean the Mrs. Rev. Horace
Crane" said Perry sternly, with what
he considered great presence of mind.
Was it a giggle or a sob OF an ex-
clamation at the other end? Perry
was not sure. But there followed a
moment of silence, which is an ex-
pensive luxury in a long-distance con-
~versation. Then, "Oh, Perry, Perry!
My auntI"
Unfortunately, at that moment oc-
CURED one of those breaks in COM
munication which will happen on the
best-regulated lines. In vain Perry
sought for a response. Not even the
operator answered.
But Perry was too happy to care.
He saw it all now-the aunt for whom
Sally was named coming on a visit,
meeting her niece's pastor, and mar
rying him in spite of her age and
witheredness. And, happy thought,
her marriage would divert at least a
! portion of that troublesome legacy
into other channels. He was free to
ask Sally to marry him!
A week later Perry learned from
Sally's lips that his surmises were
substantially correct. "Only why,
dear" he ~reproached her tenderly,
ibid you stop writing and so give me
reason to believe what seemed incred-
ible?"
"My DEAR said his promised wife,
II had to do something to startle you.
You were so stupid, dear!"
Yet. after all, most men in love are
a little bit stupid.

A Mexican pipe line is being planned
by Clay T. Yerby of Los Angeles, who
has been granted a concession by the
Mexican government. The pipe line
is to run from Puerto Mexico, on the
Gulf coast, to Salina Cruz, on the
shore of the Pacific. 1t is said that
the pipe line will follow the Tehuan-
tepec railroad. Work on the first pipe
line, a 10-inch line, will begin at once
and will be completed within &c
months. The estimated cost of the
work will be $1O,OOO,0OO, and it is
pointed out that by means Of the

Midway she checked the impulse
to utter words which would have
brought Perry's arms about her in
spite Of himself.

"Why, of course" said Sally in sur-
prise, land we'll be writing back and

So it was with the promise of fire.
Quent letters ringing in his ears that
Perry finally took himself away, per-
hitting only ever so slight and pro-
longed pressure of bis fingers to con-
vey the yearning and love with which
his heart was filed.
For a while letters from Sally
reached Perry regularly. He respond
ed promptly with long, interesting ac-
counts Of his wOrk-the progress made,
the obstacles surmounted. Then, with
out warning, the letters stopped.
Perry. at first frantic, then sunk in
depths of gloom, plunged bitterly into
his task until it's completion was in
sight and his return home made pos
sible. His one desire was to see Sally
and learn the explanation Of her 81
lence.
Came the night before his departure.
Sitting in the doorway Of the shanty
that was headquarters for the rude
construction camp, he spied one of the
boys coming up the trail, and his heart
Ieaped at the thought of possible mail.
But, after all, what he had hoped
would be letters proved only a bundle
of newspapers many days old. Sud
denly, at an inconspicuous item, his
universe spun dizzily around.

"HELLO, HELLO, FRECKLES."
That was what it began with
the long love affair between Perry
Hampton and Sally Preston, which
later became so woefully tangled
with money matters and isolation In
the wilderness and Rev. Horace Crane.
But back to the day Of first things.
Perry Hampton, by some queer chance
had been dumped without ceremony
into the Misses Hills select kinder
garten, and, standing, a small sny'
brown-headed stranger, on the out
skirts of a magic circle, had seen ex-
tended to him a little invitational
hand. "Hello, Frecklesl !" the dearest
voice he had ever heard addressed
him. And straightaway in love fell
Master Perry with Miss Sarah v.
Preston, who was as adorable at five
as she was later at nineteen.
And yet it was when Sally was
nineteen that Perry bid her a cold
good-by. Not that he meant 1t cold
". No, indeedl Only the barrier be-
tween them-it was Perry who
thought Of it that way-loomed to the
man as insurmountable, at least until
he had wrested a comfortable nveli-
hood for two years from his civil en-
gineering. For Sarah was scheduled
to inherit a considerable fortune from
an old and grabbed aunt who lived
in seclusion up in the country and
seemed liable to a quick demise at any
moment. And a stubborn Don Quix-
oteism in Perry kept his mouth closed
on the declarations Of love which
surged within him until he could back
them with offerings more substantial.
Their farewell conversation was
tragically restrained, its chief impor-
tance-and poignancy-lying in what
was left unsaid.
"Yes, Sally, I'm off tomorrow to the
Rockies"
$50 soon?" Sally bit an under lip,
which might otherwise have %quivered.

Perry, almost savagely. "It's my first

community.
We have said considerable about

We feel this morniny that it ought to
have another word of approval and
commentator at our hands. ANY
movement that makes for the better

support Of all classes of people.
In many respects it assumes the
position of community effort, for all
of the interest created will be assimi-

the right way and to induce them tt,

We bespeak the interest of every.

AS IN A NUT SHELL

Hon. William H. Fleming of Angus.
ia, former member of congress and a
man who himself would make an ideal
United States senator from Georgia,
in statement carried by the Atlana
Constitution a few days ago came SO
close expressing our view ON the sub.
ject that We are going to reproduce it
here.
Here 1T is; read it, let it sink in
and see how near to right it is:
Il am not in active politics; besides
am an outspoken Woodrow Wilson
League of Nations Democrat. There
are thousands of us in Georgia, espec-
tally among the church-going people,
and those who think for themselves,
instead Of following blindly some mis-
taken leader, even thought he be a
genius along certain lines of intellec-
tual endowment These voters con-
lentrated would have the balande of
power.
Yet we progressive Democrats are
standing on the last National Demo
cratic platform ON the subject of cur
foreign relations; and unless all signs
fail, we can stand on the next plat
form without changing our position.
The political and economic blunder
of defeating the Versailles Treaty by
Republican partnership in the Sen
ate (aided by a very few Democrats),
is becoming more and more evident as
one development in Europe follows
States must change its course is has
tened by every obstacle now being
thrown in the way of our foreign mar
kets, and by each recurring massacre
of Christians at the hands of the "un-
speakable Turk" and by every defiant
challenge which the crescent of Mo
hammed, now at the Dardanelles, pro
claims against the cross of the Prince
of Peace, whose followers prefer to
live in peace but know how to defend
in war.
& scanted the announcement cards
of the various cadidates fer Senator,
and on this question of our foreign
relations, they are all equally unsatis-
factory, from our point Of view; ex-
cept, of course, the Governors past
record makes his worse.

therefore, have to choose our candi-

tions. fortunately, we have clean

ate. He knew when the appointment
was made, that this estimable grand
old Georgia woman, would never sit
in the senate. If this had not been
the case, Governor Haldwick would
never have appointed Mrs. FELTON, and
no one knows that better than he does
Yet with tinkling of symbols and a
fanfare beyond compare, he present
ed her with her commission, staging
a great meeting in Cartersville, her
home, town, to mark the ceremony.
What sop to the intelligent women
of the state.
Instead of compliment to the We
men of Geirgia. Governor Hardwick
has REFLECTED ION their intelligence.
? Indeed, here is what the esteemed
Columbus Ledger says on the subject:
There are those who claim
that the women OF Georgia are
going to vIte for Governor Hard
wick for senate because he ap
pointed Mrs. Feiton as Senator
to wear the honor and perform no
service in that capacity. We can
not believe tEat this is true, for
While It is an honor TO have wom-
an named f1T that position, the
nonor is the empt;sst one that
could have been possibly confer
red on any woman.
Had Governor Hardwick en-
deavored to support Mrs. FELTON,,
or some other woman for the un-
expired term. instead of during a
ly nnFherhwhilestn,c ,cahndbh up up
period Of .eongf2s ssional inactiv-
itv when she rould not possibly
take her seat, there would have
been some reason for believing
that the women OF the state
wchld make an effort to show
their appreciation to lin for
this honGr. - i:t:";tSri.le Times.
Unquestionably the appoint
ment of Mrs. FELTON, was a bid for
fcr the woman vote. 1t was also
for the Watson vote, in view of
the fart that the Feltons and Wat
sons have always been Hose ,
friends, politically, and other
wise.

READING US A DISSERTATION

According to the esteemed Chatta

While we are of the opinion that i;

serious attention to a short disserta

where we play the game of politics
