LoWIy Worm Turns
 In his previous fights. Joe seems to have adopted the atti- tude of going out after the worlds record for absorbing pun ishment. Opponents have hit him in the face with everything in- cludng tho water-bucket, the ring posts and loose sections of flooring. Serenely Joe has taken all this rough treatment and has always come back for more.
 Now. however, it appears that Joe has taken tip from the old vaudeville gag. which ran thusly: One cullurd pusson says to another: "Niggah, I'll slap yo'." Whereupon tho other ne- gro replies: "Whenh I comes fun we slaps each othah.''
 It hadn't previously occurred to Joe to resort to this method, but eventually 1t crept into his nog- gin that It would be a good idea to impress adversaries that where At 0hltt run inty SldPpGu CdCit other. As consequence Joe went into the Atlanta ring Tuesday night "a changed man."
 Maybe Johnny Newton has had something to do with this new system of Joe's.
 Wise Policy at That

 Before Joe left Tuscaloosa some months ago, he boaated proudly that no ono had ever been able to knock him off his feet. He pastimed in Ii fights in the east under the direction of Johnny Newton, and he came back south with the same boast.

 Frank Herbst was Nashville bound. It then developed after he arrived that he was muscle bound. Frank then became b sh- ward bound.

JUST FOLKS

BY EDGAR A. GUEST.

TEN YEARS OLD.
Ten years old and your head up high,
With never a cloud in the summer sky
And seldom 4 tear to dim your eye.
Ten years old, and you fancy still
That life must bow to your slightest will.
And you may eat till you've had your fill.
And made for kicking your new shoes out,
And you haven't encountered a single doubt,
The worst you know of the world so far
Is cut or bruise from a jolt or Jar.
And the terrible trial that fractions are.
Ten years old, and your laughter rings
AS sweet as the song the robin sings,
For never burden the morning brings.
Little you know of the ache and strife
And the pitiless edge Of Fate's cruel knife,
For always the sun is as cleaning gold
And never the wintry days seem cold
Or the troubles real, when you're ten years
old.
But laugh along and reap your fun,
Out of your boyhoOd you soon must run,
And care begins when the playtime's done.
Then as you stand where I stand today,
Watching a boy Of your own at play,
1t may be that shall have gone awayf
But hope you'll smile as smile at you,
Hearing his laughter the whole day thru,
And think once more Of the Joys you knew
Then you may tell, as his hand you hold.
As I'm holding yours, what your dad once
told:
It's a wonderful Joy to be ten years old.

ARROWS.

ARROWS.
That which we send out is what

1 like to think of deeds as arrows
sent out on Journeys. And your
thoughts may all be arrows that will
travel around the world and into
thousands of hearts.
You may not know where the arrow
came from that has helped you or
cheered you. but you will have gained
an inspiration for personal service
that will make 1t possible for you to
send out arrows. too.

We never know when we are send

the crash of old empires and old sys-

more and more apparent with every

the way of His triumph. Out of the

emerging surely the beautiful king

HEART AND HOME PROBLEMS
Written for The State journal
By ELIZABETH THOMPSON

Dear Mrs. Thompson: About two
years ago l made the acquaintance of
several nice boys and girls thru q
friend. Since then they have invited
me to several social occasions, but
something has always come up to pre-
vent my going to them.
A short time ago one OF them gave
me an invitation to a party, but owing
to the bad weather I couldn't go.
Later one of my classmates told me
the party had been postponed. but
they had never told me anything
about t. I am beginning to think
they have really had it but are tired
of inviting me since never can at
tend.
I am planning to have a party soon
but 1 don't know whether to invite
them or not, since I think they will
not come anyway, when 1 could not
attend their parties. Please advise
me what to do. EFFIE.
Invite the young people to whom
you are under obligations even II they
do not attend your party. In that
way you may square yourself for not
attending their parties. They Will
realize then that your motive was not
to cut them.

TOM NoRToN,s BOOK.

Chief Justice Taft remarked to a
friend, recently, that when he be-
gan the teaching of constitutional law
at Yale he looked around for some
book that might serve as a basis of
instruction, but he discovered that
none existed. That need has now
been supplied.
Many Topeka citizens doubtless re-
member Thomas ]. Norton, who some
years ago, was the local correspon-
dent OF the Kansas City Journal and
who now is assistant general solicitor
Of the Santa Fe railway, with head
quarters in Chicago. Mr.. Norton has
written a book. entitled: THE Consti-
tuition of the United States. Its Sources
and Its Applications" published by
Little, Brown & Company of Boston,
which Is designed to meet the re-
quirements of every student of our
American bill of rights.
The book puts within the reach of
the American citizen and the young
people in school a brief but full and
live explanation of the sources of the
great clauses of the constitution and
also the applications of those clauses
in the great cases which have arisen.
The constitution and amendments run
along in practically unbroken connec-
ton, while underneath each clause.
requiring explanations, is found ex-
planatory matter-not in the usual
Objectionable footnote, but in large
clear type
The notes are written with the ap-
parent purpose of showing what gov
ernmental evil the fathers of the re-
public had in mind when they wrote a
I particular clause. such as the COM
merce clause, or the clause regarding
the declaration of war, or the veto
clause, or the habeas corpus clause,
or the bill OF attainder cfause, and the
construction and application of those
clauses in great contests that have
arisen.
Mr.. Norton's book is so indexed
! that everything in 1t is obtainable
when wanted. At the end of the vol
ume Is q historical chart designed to
blow away the fog in which historians
have left the transition period from
British rule to the constitution; and
following that is a chart which gives
at a glance the mechanism of the
greatest governmental system in the
world, and which is in itself a good
commentary on the constitution
All thru the book the pride of the
American is appealed to by frequent
reference to the constitutions of other
nations which copied ours. and by
Quotations from great lawyers of other
countries in praise of the American
system and Of the American genius
which devised it.
The author in the preparation OF
/ this work has performed a valuable
and distinct public service.
