CHINA PARLIAMENT
RESUMES S|TT|NGS

PEKIN, Aug. Shy the Asso-
ciated Press.)-China's parliament,
resuming today the sittings begun
August 1, after a lapse Of nearly
five years due to internal disorders,
faced strong representations for the
adoption Of a constitution as speed
lily as may be.
Ii Quan-Hung, president, and WI
Pei-Fu, the man whose military sue
cesses paved the way for LIS re-
sumption of the office, whence he
was ousted in 1917, both have gone
on record as favoring an organic
law patterned after that of the Unit
ed States.
General WI, however, in an ap-
peal issued yesterday and directed to
the members of parliament, by i'm
plication made a strong appeal for
speed in the work even at the ex-
pense of adopting some form of or
ganic law less in keeping with his
ideal. OF three matters which he
avered were essential to the coun-
try's welfare, General WI placed
adoption of a constitution first,
''for," he said, "even a bad consti-
tuition is better than none, for then
the people have something to fol-
low"
General Chen Chung Ming, who
accomplished the overthrow of the
Canton government, has Endorsed
the scheme, and the young China
party, composed largely Of Chinese
who have absorbed western ideas,
while being educated abroad. is de-
scribed as a strong influence in sup.
port of the step.
An interesting factor which, If
fully confirmed, may have a mate
rial effect on the situation is the re-
port that DIR. Sun Yat-Sen, defiant
president of the overthrown Canton
government, is suffering from men,
tai trouble. Should Sun actually be-
incapacitated, a rock which has
checked the progress of Lis plans
for reuniting China might be remov-
ed The report SO far has not been
confirmed from Canton.
| Meanwhile strife and rumors of
strife continue. Mutiny has broken
out at Kiakiang, in Kiangsi prov
ince, and 200 shops are reported to
have been looted with damage esti-
mated at 100000.

SELF-GOVERN|NENT r.,
FOR BAR PROGRESSES

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. s.
Progress apparently substantial"
made in various states toward
providing means of self govern
ment on the part of the bar" was
reported here today before the con-
ference of bar association delegates,
American. Bar association, by The
committee on state bar organization,
of which Clarence N. Goodwin, of
Chicago, is chairman.
'"The fact that the lawyer holds
public office by commission from
the state" the report said, makes
1t essential that there be lodged in
the entire body power to see that
the functions of the office are
properly performed and that in
case of obdurate misconduct, the
commission be speedily withdrawn"
The committee recommended that
in addition to the state boards CT
bar governors recommended by the
conference, councils of the bar be
formed, comprising the bar COVER
nors, the lawyer members of the
legislature, the attorney general of
the state and the governor of the
state, if he should be a lawyer, ard
the function of the council be to
consider suggestions for the i'm
provement of the administration of
justice and changes in methods of
bar government. 1t did not suggest
that such council have any part
i'll the government of the bar.
The lawyers position as pub
lie official requires immunity from
lnqulsitlons on account of the con-
fidential character of his relations
to his client, and freedom from
espionage" the report stated.
"One may wonder, however, what
may happen at present, in the case
Of a blow at society such as was
delivered by the authors of the
Haymarket riot. Would the guilty
instigators of 1T escape through
that wide door through which other
murderers and criminals have been
so frequently escaping with the aid
of our lawyer criminals?'
The report added that the "office

The conference has recommended a
board of bar governors, preferably
chosen by districts, given full pow
er of bar government, and through
control over funds paid into the
state treasury through license fees,
the means to carry on activities
essential to the welfare Of the bar"
The committee announced that
legislation to this end was being
formally advocated by state bar as
sociations in Idaho, Michigan, Ala

Florida, New York and Louisiana,
and that the plan was unOff1cially
approved in Tennessee and under

sion of the legislature; similar
bill was generally favored by the
judiciary committee Of the Idaho
legislature,' according to the COM
mittee. This statement supplement-
ed a report of progress which was
submitted at the previous annual
meeting.

high officials in which they say that
in all cases they can effect a cure;
that they will wipe out within six
months all cases of addiction: that
the drug problem of the United
States is already solved. Ignorance
of facts is ineXcusable."
Congressman Volk today gave out
the following as typical letters:

Thinking for Ourselves

In a few more days the primary
election in Alabama will be over.
The papers and the patriots
have made things as clear as ink
for everybody. "Vote for Jim Jones
and the state, or the county Will
go to the demnition bow-wows
vote for Sam Slocum and all the
prosperity that Mr.. Hardings
friends promised. us will surely
come" And the 'whisperers" are
abroad. "Dick Doeskin is a smooth
talker, but just examine his books
or his record" Joe Jackson was
a whisky man, but bootleggers had
better hide out, he certainly has
changed"
I am reminded daily of the cap
ton to an editorial in Golfers
thinking Is Personal Enter
prise" AS telephones, newspapers
and really altruistic enterprises
penetrate the isolated parts Of the
world there will be more real
thinking. There has been a certain
class of people in every part of
these isolated districts that were
born leaders and the flock jumped
or scurried when they blated or
cried danger. Too often they were
crooks and. served their own pur'
poses. A change has slowly come,
and Susan doesn't swallow what
Mr.. Boss told her husband, nor
will she vote for Ben Ex-Bootleg
because he has fooled (?) her hus'
band, nor will she. let the idea
stay with her that her vote Is
wasted because she casts 1t for
good man or woman who has nc
chance against Ben EX-Bootleg
Vote as you pray, don't vote and
then pray that Ben Ex-Bootleg may
be made to see the right way. There
never was a tiger that really made
friends with the lamb. 1t might not
be in a position to eat the little
thing, but the taste for lamb never
has left Mr.. Tiger. So remember
that the man or woman MAKING
your laws, or promising to execute
them, will not experience a rea
change of heart just because he OF
she has promised to do so. Yor
cannot put dishonest, or weakened
people in office and not suffer fol
it. So vote as you pray.

In this section of the south, wa
termelons and muskmelons are
planted about the same time and
handled in much the same way. The
muskmelon seldom makes as big a
yield as the watermelon. Planting
should be done from March to June,
depending on seasonal conditions.
Cotton, for instance, is now being
gathered in south Georgia, whereas,
the plants are blooming in north
Georgia. You can see, therefore,
that there are very wide seasonal
differences even within this state.
Watermelons and muskmelons
s2iould be planted as early as posi-
BILE. OF course, one should consider
weather conditions and should plant
so as to avoio danger from frost to

Grounds

Grounds
X. E. W., Collins. Ca, writes:
1 am interested in identifying
y the grounds around the house,
ana will appreciate any sugges-
lions you will give me as to
what plants and shrubs to use.
You are to be commended for the
interest evidenced in the beautify-
ing OF your home grounds. There is
nothing that adds more to the aes-
tnetlc value and the general attrac-
uVeness of home than the planting
out OF desirable trees and shrubs. In
your section of Georgia almost any
OF the better known plants or trees
can be grown successfully. 1t would
De very difficult to advise you salts
1actorily just how to proceed in a
matter OF this character without
having a general plan and layout of
your yard to work upon. The size of
the yard, it's general scope, the ele-
walton Of the house and the type Of
architecture you have employed will
all exert an influence in determining
the character of the paintings you
should establish.
In the matter of shade trees, there
Is nothing finer to use in your Sec
ton Of Georgia than the live oak or
the water oak. There are several
varieties Of the latter. as you doubt
less know. Personally, I prefer the
willow oak, as 1 think it makes the
densest shade and the most beau
tlful tree. The pin oak can also be
planted out to advantage in your
part of the state. Some people like
to use nut trees as ornamentals. The
pecan or the English walnut may be
used satisfactorily for this purpose.
] have never felt that a nut tree,
however, was properly situated in
the front yard of a home They
should certainly be planted in the
back yard and along the garden
fence.
There are several varieties of
spirea which can be planted around
the foundation Of a house to form
masses of shrubbery. If proper Sc
lection is made, they will provide
variety of bloom through relatively
long season. Several varieties Of
honeysuckle also do exceptionally
well in Georgia. The winter honey
suckle makes a very beautiful, shady
shrub. Then, of course, we have the
myrtle trees which furnish blooms
varying from white to a sort of
purple. The red bud is an attractive
shrub, and blooms very easily in the
spring. The golden bell runs it a
close race in the matter Of produc-
ing early blooms. A specimen of the
sweet shrub should have a place in
every home ground. The berberis
also makes a pretty shrub. The dog
wood can be grown on lawns where
there is considerable amount of
shade. The hibiscus and hydrangea
also do well in Georgia. Also the
jasmine, the syringa and the double
Towering almonds.
I would suggest that you plant
out few varieties of these shrubs
in masses. Do not try to use too
many kinds. Several groups devel-
oped at the corners of your lawn and
around the foundation of your house
will add to the attractiveness of your
home. 1t will not cost a great deal
to buy the young plants, and they
will soon grow into very attractive
shrubs.

In regard to your cotton, it would
be inadvisable from our point of
