NANCY, Nick and Buskins sal
very, very still while Mother Ma.
ture gave the little seeds their lesson.
They were in the magical country of
Thistledown Land where all the fly
ing seeds go to learn where and how
10 grow the next year.
Now, where does your book say
for you to grow?" asked Mother Ma
ture of the dandelion seeds.
"On the hin opposite the factory, -
answered the seeds with one voice.
"Why?"
Because the people who work
there have no flowers, and they can
look out of the window and see us
and be glad"
That's right" said Mother Nature
kindly, but there are not enough
of you here. You'll have to take all
your younger brothers and sisters
with you so that the whole hill will
be bright and yellow next spring.
Mr.. Rubadud will give each of you
a nice coat of yellow paint and Mr.
Sprinkle Blow will send down gentle
showers to keep you clean. Hold
your heads up and do all you can to

spread happiness and cheer"
She called the milk-weed seeds
next, when the dandelion seeds had
taken their seats.
The milk-weed seeds were told To
grow near to house where poor
children lived so that their pods could
be used for doll-baby cradles in the
fall
Next came the maple tree seeds,
gently smoothing their shiny, clear
wings.
"It's very important" said Mother
Nature to the maple-seeds, "tnat
you grow where are most needed.
So many people neglect planting
shade trees that we win have to do
the best we can. One of you must
grow in city yard where there are
children, one near to hospital
where sick people can see your green
branches, and one where tired horses
can rest in your shade. Learn your
lesson well, little seeds"

WIRELESS

Eastern radio clubs protest against
Ia government ruling which prohibits
them from broadcasting music, con-
Icerts or news, These are allowed to
be sent only by designated" sta
tons"
Some wireless amateurs charge
this is the first step by corporate in
terests to obtain monopoly of the
air
Such monopoly, by natural proc
esses, will be attempted later. For
the present, the ruling is wise. It
aims to confine Sending" to experts,
to prevent the cluttering incident to
two messages being received at the
same time.
Primary function Of wireless still
is saving life at sea. Wireless "lines"
must be kept open.

SUGGESTION

Does il make you thirsty when you
see liquor flowing in moving pic
ture? One of the leading producers
thought 50, and cut dlt a scene show
ing wine glasses.
This gets the endorsement of Pro-
hibition Commissioner Haynes.
IF, in enforcing prohibition, we are
20 eliminate all things, which by
suggestion, press-agent liquor, most
of the literature Of the past will have
% be burned There wouldn't be
much of Charles Dickens left. He
usually had an ale-house in the CEN

DOORS

a merchandising expert comments
chat nearly all the oldtime saloons
had doors that opened inward. Easier
for customers to get in than get out.
The expert thinks this is a good tip
for merchants.
More approximation the door,
though, is what's on sale inside. If
saloons had their old-time stocks,
they'd have rush of business even
il customers had to sandpaper their
fingers and enter by picking the lock
of a bank vault.

A THOUGHT FOR TO-DAY.

They that wait upon the Lord shall
renew their strength; they shall
mount up On wings as eagles; they
shalT run and not be weary; snd they
shall walk and not faint. - Isaisla

There is no wealth but life-life,
including all its powers of love, of
JOY and admiration. That country
is the richest which nourishes the
greatest number of noble and happy
human beings.-John Ruskin.

ETIQUETTE

Being polite becomes more diff
cult. Social blunders lark on every
side.
One of the many books on Ell.
quette, which are raining heavily on
the public, says it is serious
"boner" for a man, dining in a res
taurant, to pick a fallen fork from
the floor, that function "porperly''
belonging to the waiter.
1t is also set forth, that dipping
both hands into a fingerbowl stimuli
taneously, instead of one hand at a
time, is blunder in the first degree.
Real etiquette is in acting with po-
lite consideration for others, not like
a trained monkey.

LET'S SETTLE 1T.

THE Atlanta correspondent Of the
Macon Telegraph is authority foi
the statement that Governor Mard.
wick yesterday openly declared that
he intended this year to force the
capital removal issue-if it can be
called an issue-to a conclusion; that
he intended to make an effort to
have it settled by a referendum.
If there really is any longer a
capital removal issue, the governor
is right; it would be criminal to per-
nit such a bugaboo to continue to
turn up every session of the legisla-
ture and blast hopes of important
legislation when it is sorely needed.
We do not believe, however, that cap
ital removal exists as an issue out
side of the circle of a few lobbyists
who have fattened off the easy marks
of Macon and the men of, Atlanta
who have been forced to "raise the
ante as the cheapest way for them
to protect, what they already have.
When the men of Macon get suffi-
GENTLY tired of donating to the lob
byists there will be no more capital
removal issue.
