Only absolutely necessary public buildings
should be erected and practically no great new
public enterprises, such as parks, extended
water or subway systems, irrigation and recla-
nation projects and the like, undertaken
Public Works a Safety Valve
Then, it is claimed, when period of de-
preston comes and private employers lay off
their workers, the Federal, state and municipal
government should inaugurate great programs
OF Improvement, embarking upon the stored
up work which has been held in allegiance dur
ing prosperity.
During the waiting period, the plan would
provide that reserve of funds should be laid
aside to pay for the public work to be done
in periods of depression and therefore thou
sands of people would obtain employment and
receive pay out of these funds who otherwise
would not be employed.
The plan can be applied to private work as
well. During periods of prosperity a corpora
ton could accumulate reserve funds and hold
n1ents not essential to the making of the
product. Then when the depression arrived,
this work could be performed and men kept
from unemployment thereby.
Of the objections raised to this general plan
the principal one is that 1t is only in times
of prosperity that companies and governments
feel they can afford to make Improvements

like the Arkansas man of whom the Arkansas
Traveller tells. The Traveller found the man
sitting in his cabin and nearly drenched by the
rain pouring through the leaky roof. He asked
him why he did not repair the roof. The
man said 1t was so wet and slippery in the
rain that he feared to attempt the Job. Asked
why he did not repair the roof when it was
not raining, he explained that then the roof
did not leak. This is precisely the psychology
OF business depressions and periods of pros,
perity.

~ USINESS conditions in the Southwest,
* as reported by The Journals special
correspondents, are marked by one
factor of which Georgians may Drofitably
take note While June was the best COM
mercial month in the history of that region
for two years or more, July came on with
the tagging gait of midsummer dullness The
impetus of spring had spent itself. the vigor
of harvest time was yet to ripen; wherefore
the tides of trade ran low. Then came a
development that turned thsm toward for
tune. "The market for live stock began to
soar
Had the sole dependence of the South
western country rested on cotton, many
sluggish week would have worn itself away
ere business betterment became general and
pronounced. But having extensive live stock
interests, the farmers benefited largely by
the July advance in hog and cattle prices,
and the resultant stimulus flowed far and
wide. 1t appears, moreover, that wheat
sales money is stirring in all the rural dis
tricts," so that bank deposits are increasing
daily. Thus great region which elsewhere
might be merely marking time until cotton
began to move now enjoys midsummer pros
oerity.
With richer and wider range Of resources
than the Southwest, Georgia need never suf-

by the baby doll type of woman who rolls
cowlike eyes at them and ask. them fool

and strong and wise they are, and they
marry these morons expecting to be happy
ever after. Unhappily, man only admires
idiocy in woman before marriage. After
marriage he wants .;ood, hard, horse sense
in her, and plenty Of it.
Hence the common spectacle of seeing in

The same thing happens in the case OF
women. A woman falls in love with man
because he is big, and brutal, and domineer-
ing, and he sweeps her off her feet by q
cave man wooing, and SIZE Is miserably un.

Whereas, Mrs. Croesus would be equally
willing to trade off the flesh pots for lit

is why monogamy is bound to be more OF

The Golden Co,0
GEMS have been written to cowslips,
then why not to cows? Nothing short

~ GEMS have been written to cowslipS
then why not to COWS? Nothing short
of an ode, we think, is deserved by the
Alabama bossy, Of whom Mr.. Jesse Hearin
directing manager of the farm department
of the Montgomery Chamber Of Commerce,
writes in the Advertiser, OF that city: "She
gives, each month, twice her weight in milk,
deposits thirty times her weight for increas-
ed fertility of the SOL, and every year pre-
sents her owner with a calf" So goodly a
contributor to human happiness, come to
think OF it, is more worth bard's devotions
than thousand fair, but tickle jades like
Helen of Troy.
From carefully kept records Mr.. Hearin
figures that the same class Of soil which sup
ports thi- cow would produce on an area OF
twenty-five acres, without fertilizer, cotton
worth as much 5 the minimum market
value of her milk. But the cow uses only
two acres, and enricles that; whereas the
cotton would occupy and impoverish more
than twelve times as much Nor should it
be forgotten that while the cow has calf
each year, the cotton has million boil wee
wills each season." and that while the cow
yields daily cash, the cotton goes to pay the
accumulated debts injured in employing
labor and buying feed to destroy the clovers
and grasses that make a cow profitable"
Georgia can match the Alabama example
with thoroughbreds Of her own. Many a
countryside, which once was in lamentation
over the reverses Of king cotton now rejoices
in the prosperity of pasture queens Diver
sified crops and dairying industries pour
steady wealth into counties that cultivate
them Alright. giving the vigor Of cash to
sluggish business AMI a sturdy independence,
which onec-rap systems can never assure.
But this Commonwealth has only begun to
develop it's rich dairying opportunities.
Favored with er-brimming abundance Of
all that nature provides for success in such
fields, Georgia should become rs famed for
butter and cheese as for peaches and mel
ons; and when that good day arrives she
will be land flowing not only with milk
and honey, but with Cold and gladness too.

Boys and Dogs of Today
1--WE can understand the detection Of
that rare spirit and hale prince

w that rare spirit and hale prince
of newspaperdom, William Allen
White, over the dismal failure Of the boys
of Emporia Kansas, to come up to q certain,
honored tradition Of Huckleberry Finn. Mr..
White conceived the engaging idea of a
Fourth OF July parade of boys with their
dogs; and to sharpen the zest Of the young
sters he offered prize for the one who
should lead, in the jolly, barking procession,
the largest number OF canine comrades A
king might well have given his crown to be-
hold such sight-all sorts of boys with all
sorts Of dogs, marching to the music Of drum
and fife; the way enlivened with an occa-
sional combat, but for the most part friend
ly line of wagging tails and freckled faces.
So ran the dream. But, oh, the disillusion-
ment! On the appointed day not boy,
not dog turned out!
Still, let us not suppose that boyhood has
lost its mettle and romance Because it's
new wine cannot be held in old bottles is
no good reason for thinking that it is a
bubble less boyish than when Huck went
fishing and revelle the old swimmin' hole,
or when q prize for a boy-and-dos parade
would have filled the town square to over
flowing. Huck himself, If he should revisit
this planet, would forsake his old haunts and
pastimes to "listen-in" at radio set, or to
tinker with an automobile, or to join q Boy
Scouts hike. The fact is, that there is more
adventure for lads mind today and more
of diverting work for his hands than ever
of old. Nevertheless. we are sorry that the
boys of Emporia didn't turn out with their
dogs. How the dogs would have relished it!

BIRDS WITHOUT NESTS

Emperor penguins standing erect and five
feet tall, are the largest birds of this strange
group living in antarctic regions.
Powerful swimmers in water, almost helpless
on land, unable to use their wings for flight
they have had very great interest for explorers.
DR.. S. E. Jones, who was with Sir Douglas
MawSon describing great mass of the birds
covering several acres of floe ice, says the
sound of their cries reminded one of the noise
from distant sports ground in well-con-
tested game.
The emperor make no nests. The eggs are
incubated while the long night is still on, when
the temperature may be IS to 20 degrees below
zero, with the wind blowing gale. The female
must deposit the eggs on the ice, in absence of
nest.
The single egg Is placed above the feet, be-
tween the feet and breast feathers In this way
the egg is held from contact with the chilling
ice. This habit has prevailed so long the birds
are accustomed to standing on heels rather than
flat feet, in striking contrast to other birds.
Males and females take turn in the process of
incubation. The young are reared by the moth
ers, who literally climb on top of them This
strange and seemingly necessary habit frequent
ly results In the death of the young Food is
from the sea in the mothers mouth and gullet,
and is eagerly seized and devoured by the
young.-By Prof. M j. Elrod, Chair of Biology,
University of Montana.

TELEPATHY AND SCIENCE
BY Fl. Arlington Bruce

.<fO UR society claims to have proved the
reality Of thought transference-
of the transmission of thoughts,
feelings and images from one mind to an
other by no recognized channel of sense
Nearly forty years have passed since a
special committee, including in its person
mel some eminent savants, thus put the
Society fer Psychical Research on record
as accepting the actuality Of telepathy. In
the interval a steadily increasing number
of scientists have arrived at the same be-
lief.
Scrutinizing the evidence already avail
able, more and more men trained in the
methods OF rigorous thinking have come
to the conclusion picturesquely phrased
by Sir Oliver Lodge:
,"I am prepared to confess that the
weight Of testimony is sufficient to salts
fly me that distance is no barrier to the
sympathetic communication of intelli-
gence in some way OF which we are at
present ignorant; that just as signalling
key in London causes telegraphic instru-
ment to respond instantaneously in Te-
heran, so the danger or death Of a distant
relative may be signalled, without wire or
telegraph clerk, to the heart of q human
being fitted to be the recipient of such a
message"
But while this is the belief held, as
stated, by number Of scientists, tnclud-
ing not a few Of world renown, it is by
no means the belief of the majority of
scientists. To aver. as is frequently done.
that telepathy has the sanction Of the SCI
entific world is to aver what is not true.
So far is it from being true that most
scientists smile pityingly or contemptu-
ously IL one mentions te1epathy to them.
Most Of them, in fact will frankly admit
that they deem the mere notion OF thought
transference such an absurdity that they
would not waste time inquiring into it.
Which is perhaps the chief reason for
the failure Of telepathy to obtain universal
scientific recognition. Certainly this
would seem to be the opinion of those
scientists who do accept telepathy.
"If you would only take. the trouble
to investigate you, too, would believe"
is their reproach to their skeptical breth-
rem. "The evidence for telepathy is Of
such a nature as to compel the assent OF
of any competent person who studies it
partially
add, is hindered for many--perhaps most
---men of science by the fact that they
still are dominated by materialistic con-
ceptions Of mind and personality. In the
scheme of such conceptions there cannot
well be a place for telepathy, hence the
readiness to dismiss it as something pre-
posterous.
Gradually, however, the dogmas Of ma
terialism seem to be losing their hold on
the scientific consciousness. So that we
may reasonably expect that the time will
yet come when the problem which te1epa-
thy raises will more generally be APP
preached with real open-mindedness than
is now the case.

romantic little flapper of seventeen
wants to know of me if girl can love two
boys at the same time.
Why, bless your heart, child, at your age
you can love twenty at the same time with
out unduly speeding up your heart action.
You can thrill at the footsteps of practically
any man who strolls your way. All love
making sounds good to you, and you can
see the Only Man in thousand different
forms and guises.
You can love Tom because he Is strong
and athletic, and Dick because he is delicate
and fragile, and makes calls upons your
sympathies, and Harry because you have
known him all his life. You can love Percy
because he has soulful eyes, and quotes
poetry, and Jim because he has fast road
ster, and Algernon because of the way, his
hair grows around his forehead. You can
love Tom because he is such good dancer,
and has step that just matches yours, and
Fred because you are half afraid of him, and
good old Sam because you feel so safe with
him.
And SO it goes. Yousare attracted to some
men because they talk to you, and others
because they listen to you when you talk to
them. Some men appeal to you because you
have to take care of them, and which you
like the best you don't know, for you are
up against the proposition of the poet who
said that he could be happy with either
dear charmer, were tother dear charmer
away"
That is the way with most of us, for in
reality the one-woman man and the one
man woman are as scarce as hens teeth.
The balance of US are torn between the rival
attractions of the men and women who fas-
cinate us with entirely different lines of
charm, and that is what makes so much
trouble in the world.
Also that is what makes It so impossible
for any human being ever to realize the
colossal dream of vanity of being all-in-all
to anybody else, unless he or she is an ag-
gregation of the Greatest Attractions on
Earth, as the circus posters put it, or else
is lucky enough to marry one of those un-
imaginative individuals, who live in rut
and like sameness The sort of people, you
know, who eat roast beef and apple pie three
hundred and sixty-five times year for din
ner, and who find comfortable make of
shoe and stick to it.
The rest of us-and our name is Legion
find that our hearts instead Of being con-
structed on the one-room-and-bath plan, are
built with as many apartments in them as
a skyscraper hotel, and that during our lives
not only many tenants come and go, but
that often we are filled up with different
guests at the same time, and which one to
give the parlor suit to we do not know. Thus
matrimony becomes the great adventure, for
the ideal husband or wife who could meet
