SOME OF THE THINGS WHICH HAVE
COME IN MY TIME.

WHEN I first saw the light, nearly
w eighty-nine years ago; there was no
W railroad in Georgia The first railroad
in southern state was built from Charles
ton to. Hamburg, S. c., and it was crude
little affair. 1t was such novel mode of
travel that my father went to Augusta, more
than ITO miles, either in a gig or on horse
back, then made the trip to Charleston the
year before l was born, over this railroad
The Indians were still in Cherokee, Ca
the other tribes had been driven out, or went
voluntarily These Cherokee Indians were
not hostile to the white settlers. Some OF
their old houses are still here. In the year
1888 the Cherokees were transferred to In
dian Territory, guided and guarded by the
military forces of the United States govern
ment. There were two factions, those who
were willing to sell out, and the other,
which opposed removal. The feud was bit
ter. The Ridge party agreed to sell to the
government, the Ross party were hostile to
removal. Ridge and his were set upon
and murdered on Georgia soil about the time
the removal got under way, Their descend
ants were very bitter years afterWard, and
complained they were robbed of their happy
hunting grounds" l not thrown with
any Indians in my childhood, and they were
removed in 1888, to what was then called
Indian Territory, later Oklahoma. While my
husband was congressman between 1875 and
1881 [ saw good many western Indians.
They visited Washington to talk with the
one of the old ones, on Pennsylvania avenue,
and they were generally dressed in full In
dian costume. Their reddish brown skins
were smooth and shining. They adorned
with feathers and beads and wore moccasns
for shoes.
The Indians who mixed with negro blood
were called Mestizoes-the whites who erred
in the same way had mulatto children. The
Indians who mixed with whites were known
as half-breeds
We had no telegraphs anywhere, until the
summer Of 1874. An experimental line was
stretched between Washington and Balti-
more, and if I remember Alright, it was
freighted with election news in the Polk
Clay campaign.
Henry Clay was scheduled to speak at
Madison, Morgan county, but he never got
further than Augusta. My father and some
of his Whig neighbors made the trip in a
two-horse wagon to Madison. I remember
seeing the eatables lifted into the wagon
and watched the departure. 1t was a great
disappointment, failing to see the great Har-
ry of the West.
All the news had to be carried in weekly
newspapers The election news travelled
slowly and the excitement was great. When
the stage coach came along there was gem
orally waiting crowd to hear the election

that 1 caught on, too, and when the last
word came at the close, and Polk was elect
ed, 1 had bad feelings. too, and felt sure
the country was going to the definition
Bow Vows" whatever that stands for. Then
came the Mexican war.
A young man. living near our home vol
unteered and went off with a company of
soldiers. continually wondered If the young
fellow would ever return.
; When he did come, he seemed to be new
sort of fellow He was listened to and
seemed TO rise in peoples esteem, for he
made good a soldier.
l never saw a cooking stove until [ was
nearly grown. We had immense freplaces,
wide brick hearths in the kitchen, and we
had pots and ovens and skillets, big and
little. We had what was called a crane,
fastened in the open chimney, and big hooks
to swing potts. ETC.
I was nearly grown before 1 heard of a
sewing machine. There was a great lot of
waste thread in the early management of the
sewing machines, and, the rawlings were
eagerly sought after and handed around as
wonderful exhibits
We paid long price for Singer" ma
chine, when had little children, and there
was never more useful invention for wom-
en- in the whole round world than the ad-
vent Of the now very common sewing ma

Then new things of various kinds came
along fast-farm machinery especially. After
was married we spread great wagon sheets
and the sheets bundles of wheat and
tramped the grain out with horses feet. A
wheat thresher a great show to Geor-
gians seventy years ago.
Later on in the '70s the telephone made
its appearance, wonderful taking inven-
tion. [ saw one of the first used in official
Washington City. l have passed over the
Atlantic cable, which was the marvel in
two continents. The first one broke down
quickly, butt the persevering people pressed
on and on until we can talk all over the
world, across oceans, every hour in the day.
Then came the Surprising feats of cleo
tricity, lighting, cooking, moving force, and
all the rest of the wonderful things now in
everyday use.
The wireless telegraphy has always been
too much for my aged brain. l can't tell
the why the wherefore.
What about the submarine and the aix-
plane with their surprising accomplishments
and extraordinary reaches into the unknown
and the hitherto unknowable. l saw a Ger
man submarine in 1919, captured one The
sight of that deep hole where men travelled
under the sea waves to destroy great ocean
liners was something to thrill the dullest
brain.
Ninety years ago all these things were not
with us. Not one in ten thousand ever ex-
pected to see them.

INTERNATIONALISM
By DR.. Frank Crane


1t is pretty generally recognized by those
who are capable of thinking at all that in
ternationalism of some sort is the way out.
The world faces internationalism or Chaos.
Every business man who has grown
enough to realize that the prosperity of his
own locality depends upon the prosperity of
the rest of the world, is an Internationalist.
In fact, almost everyone is an Interna-
tionalist except the Bourbons, the Chauvin-
lists, the Cynics, the Job Holders, the Re
actionaires and the Blatherskites.
All intelligent patriots are International
lists because intelligent patriotism is a pas
sion for making ones country best serve the
world, while blind patriotism, septic and
dangerous patriotism, is the desire to keep
ones country isolated from the rest of the
world or to have ones country dominate
the world.
J But the thing that we must not lose
sight of is that a lasting and wholesome
Internationalism cannot come by mere ma
| chinery, but must be the outgrowth of an
international spirit.
Commerce helps Every steamship thai
crosses the ccan, every railway that passes
| a boundary, and every aeroplane that ignores
territorial divisions is working away to build
up the great ideal that shall dominate the
| future, to wit, that all human interests
| everywhere are interdependent.
| But perhaps the most important force tina
/ Is laying the spiritual foundations for q
world organization is Christianity, especial
| ly that form of it which is found operating
among missionaries
I have been all over the world and me-
all kinds of people; l have heard senators
and deputies and parliamentarians decline
| have talked with statesmen and diplomat!
and know something of their activities
| have met professors in universities and reaC
their books; I have heard soap box operators
/ on the street; l have listened to preachers
and attended the rites of priests; 1 have per
used the writings of the literary gentry whC
scorns the commons and expose their pol
| ished sentences only in high class magazines
in fact. I have stirred about the world con
siderably, and my judgment is that no class
of people are doing more to prepare hu
mainly for an intelligent internationallsn
| than the Christian missionaries who are
working steadily away intoxicating into the
minds of the vast multitude just entering
upon civilization the broad, warm human
| izing truths of Jesus.

MY FAVORITE STORIES
By Irwin 5. Cobb

OF course, in these Gays, when no COM
munity is so small or so obscure or go old
fashioned that it lacks service stations and
jazz orchestras and schemes for a proposed
civic center, this story longer could be
made to apply in any American town But
/ am reliably informed that in a previous
decade it had basis of fact behind it.
AS the tale runs, a man who had been
born and reared in a remote Nebraska coun-
ty seat moved to New York, where he suc-
Ceeded in business. Years later a friend
from his former home came to see him.
Naturally, talk drifted back to childhood
scenes and memories.
II guess the old town hasn't changed
much has 1t, Jim?" asked the New Yorker.

He1b;,ag Martha Berry .

rTHE study of genealogical lines, now ex-
tensi1ely practced in connection with
a highly priced membership in American
societies, has developed some startling
truths, the contemplation of hich is profit
able In many ways. A man, travelling back
over his bloodlines, finds, in the nine gen
erations that carry him back to Plymouth or
jamestown, five hundred and twelve men
and women from whom he is directly de-
scended They have contributed to his mind
spirit and body; and his soul may reflect
one or many of them.
This being indisputably true, fine lesson
may be derived by reversing the journey.
Nine generations away, in the future, is a
sdirect descendant, who will derive good and
of this generation as ancestors! The indi-
yidual who contemplates that distant de-
scendant, if he be a thinking man, must rec
ognize that, he himself is reflected there
with all his victories and his failures. He
may be an inspiration, he may be just so
mucn dead weight For man is after ali
the sum of his ancestors.
To say that recognition of this fact en-
tails duty to the unborn, that it calls for
clean living and high thinking, is stating but
half the demand made upon the mans con-
science. 1t is his mission to protect that
faraway child not only from evil and weak
ness through himself, but from all of evil
and weakness carried in the generation he
lives with, and from which his child must
draw so lavishly BY the laws of evolution,
both physical and spiritual, the environment
that shapes us most, is always behind. The
5 battle that men and women wage in life,
sometimes, yes, ofttimes heroically, Is war
against the factors of a past environment
that assault and chain the soul, rather than
a struggle with life itself,
What has this to do with the Berry
Schools? A great deal. A very great deal
1t has to do with every safeguard thrown
around the boys and girls Of this genera
ton; who are to be the grandmothers and
grandfathers-with us-of those far away
unborn children of ours The potentialities
which are to shape these little souls, clip OIL
spread the wings of their spirits, are here
with us. The starved bodies, the chilled
half-clad bodies, Of today will echo in some
future wave of life In the bodies of oul
own children, as weakness and disease. The
stunted untaught minds in the generation

knee and to whom our hearts would go out
in love and tenderness, could 1t by some
necromancy or art be flashed before our
vision.
The subject has to do with the Berry
school directly because there the genius and
God-like spirit of woman, inspiring and
arming others, is fighting the battle of those
unborn babies by building up the minds,
theirs to be-preparing the way of the Lord,
making his paths straight. This woman,
Martha Berry has, in twenty-one years, raised
three millions of dollars and invested them
Sin youth" as her story reads.
The investment is not only in youth, and
facilities for the care and training of youth
but in those generations to come in which
all Georgians are to be represented. To he1

women, to whom their children are dear
Pride of family and ancestor generation,

for the inspiration of their descendants.
But worship of the unborn children is even
nobIer; for love enshrines them when we
vision their outstretched hands, their shin
ing eyes, and the lips that smile down to us
from life's far tomorrows. A practical dem
onstration of that love is to make smooth
their paths and plant flowers beside them.
That is what Martha Berry is doing for our
unborn children, and we of Georgia are
helping her with three cents for every dollar
she spends.

The Nestina Dinosaur

~HE American Museum Of History's ex-
peditionary party have reached Picking
from Mongolia, after an exciting expe-
rience. They did not suffer from starva-
ton, nor were they attacked by bandits, but
they found, in addition to tons of prehis-
toric bones, twenty-five eggs of the dinosaur,
the first ever discovered by modern man.
In fact, nobody knew, before. these agile In
vestigators stumbled on the faraway nest,
that dinosaurs laid eggs.
The name of this queer creature, by the
way, is formed from two Greek words mean
ing, in conjunction, terrible lizard"
Just how it is known that these are
lizard eggs is not revealed, and no one
can prove it by the eggs, since they are said
to be fifteen million years old; which,
though, not beyond the cafeteria scrambling
limit, is probably beyond that of incubation.
They cannot be placed in an incubator and
Matched out; which is unfortunate, for it
would be interesting to compare the hatch
with the largest lizard known to modern
sc1ence-the parlor lounge variety.
1t is always interesting and sometimes
thrilling to hear these science lads prate
about time They cross aeonic gaps on COS
samer threads, using twelve syllable words
as balance poles, and expect the unframed
citizen to follow unaided. And they are far
more positive as to what was, than he usual
ly is as to what is. 1t will always be a
mystery to most of us how, when they size
wrinkles, as fifteen million years old,
they know it isn't sixteen. Not that it
makes much difference. What is a matter
of million years between friends? Moth
ing, absolutely nothing-after they are
gone by.
