WORDS FROM THE LIPS OF WISE MEN

Pious prudent wise and gentle words appropriate
in the shield of noble.
Nature alone knows what she wants.
Laughing, weeping, joy and grief first cousins.
With stupidity the gods themselves struggle in vain.
Labor is worth while only enjoyed and all kinds of
labor are enjoyable to the philosophic mind.
Love cannot perish What decays must rise again.
Great is the victory which is obtained without blood
The passions virtue and vices but exaggerated.

Don't interfere with nature

Unless you know all about it.
It's dangerous to interfere with natures balance The
game department Of Illinois ropagaes pheasants scatters
them through the State Farmers say the pheaans kill off
the quail that for they hate The quail destroy
great quantities of chnchbug and other harmful creatures
Pheasants inferior insect destroyers.
In State high bounes killed off coyotes that had been
killing lambs Then field mice with coyotes keep them
down destroyed the alfalfa for the cattle and sheep
Perhaps they killed off all the field mice we should have
plague Of insect life that the field mice now control.
The wonder that nature manages things well as she
does.
You should read little pamphlet on the
field recently issued by the Department Of Agriculture
written by very careful student of nature Mr. Vernon
Bailey
One field mother had sets of young ones in
one One Of her daughters had thirteen families from
four to eight in number in the year. The descendants of
female in year would number million and in
very few years they should all i've they would weigh more
than the earth
It's dangerous, trifling with that terrific power
ONE MILLION baby mice in one wear from ONE
mother Only TWO baby elephants in twenty years from
one mother Well may say Wonderful is nature and
how WISE"

maxims, doesn't itf Well, most Of the cute
little maxims ought to be upset. They've
cheated and misled the human race since they
were first coined. And no maxims have a
more weak and worthless record than the
maxims about Opportunity.
Everything DOESN'T come to chin who
waits.''
Fortune DOESN'T favor those who stand
ready.
You've got to be more than good waiter
you'll have to do more than stand ready.
YOU'VE GOT TO BE A HUSTLER. You've
got to sneak up on Opportunity from behind
and knock her down and step on her wind
pipe and get out an injunction, before she IL
even stop and give you the once over. And

OUT OF TEN SHE DOESN'T KNOCK. She scoots By on
high, and you want to catch up with her you'll have to
show a lot of speed.
Often indeed she doesn't even come within hundred
miles Of your house. You may have nice place. It may be
laid out according to all the approved plans It may seem
just the sort Of place Old Lady Opportunity would desire as
roos And yet though you wait all day. with your habits
nicely washed behind the and morals in papers,
she shows up She is off in another part of en-
treyn quite dsreputabe part of town. where moth
ing done by law order and where he who enters must
risk constant peril There sits your Opportunity chorng
up her sleeve and daring you to and get her. YOU
would claim her you must 60 after her into that aaz-
ing dangerous place and probably sandbag her into the

IT'S time we revised our dope sheets about
this Opportunity business. Ever since
Il can remember I've been told that some
day Opportunity would "knock upon my
door" and that must be waiting to open the
door. Ever since can remember everyone
else has been told the same thing
And, as consequence, most Of us are
still waiting.
Whereupon these unhappy walters be-
come riled at Fate because she didn't send
old Mrs. Opportunity along to their doorsill
as per promise. But instead they should have
been riled at the false prophets who gave
them the wrong dope on the tickle lady. For
here's the truth:

sented the three act comedy, 'sNoth.
ing but the TRUTH
A fair sized audience Witnessed Il
and enjoyed every moment, even the
times when the harassed players were
driving scattered wits to tell them
what came next.
The play Is heavy one. requiring
two and ane-hah hours for presenta-
tion. The class has been handicapped
by excessive demands upon their time,
but in spite Of al this the general plot
was put across IN an acceptable man
ner and such places as showed parts
fauitily learned were In the scenes
which were the background for the
real action.
Lempi Ranta as Gwendolyn Rails
ton. Eugenia provin as Ethel Clark,
Evelyn McInnis as MabIe Jackson, and
Ralph Millard-a as Robert Bennett, were
the most convincing but were ably
backed by the rest Of the company
consisting Of George servoss, s. A.

Nordquist, Alice Larkfn, Deioris Mur-
ray and Elsie McInnis.

DUTCH FARMERS WANT
TO SETTLE IN FLORIDA

INVERNESS, Fla, May In a
letter to Representative Frederick
Van Roy of this city in his capac-
ity as real estate operator in this
section, G. T. M. Simmons, editor
of the New Amsterdam de TELEGRAPH
declares favorably for prospects in
bringing experienced Dutch farm
ers to this part Of Florida as de-
sirable settlers, at the same time
advocating the wisdom of exper-
fenced farmers from other foreign
countries.
Editor Simmons plan for coloniz-
ing is going to be seriously ham
pered, owing to pending legislation
that viii seriously affect immigra-
sion from every other country, toe,
Representative Van Roy said.
Simmons came to Florida as di-
rect result of the recent All-Flor-
ida exposition at Madison Square
Garden. He has promised to report
further regarding his activities. His
chief interest here, he said, was to
locate the best farming lands for the
most desirable class of emigrants
from his country, and believed he
has found it in Citrus County.

ACT UNCONSTITUTIONAL

ALBANY, May In an opinion
just received here on two local cases
tried in United States court, south
ern district of Georgia, Albany di-
vision, Judge William Fl. Barrett
holds that the act of the Georgia
legislature regulating the domesti-
cation of foreign corporations, ap-
proved in August, 1920, is unconsti-
tutional in that it is violative of
section 2, article 3, of the judicial
article of the federation constitu-
ton.
The decisions were rendered in
two suits by Foy & Shemwell, OF

bama Power company on motion OF
the plaintiffs to remand the cases
to Daugherty county superior court,
from which they had been trans
ferred on the ground of diversity

BROWNSVILLE. ROSE
SHOW TO BE. FRIDAY

BROWNSVILLE, May 1.-Much
interest is being taken in the crosse
Show" to be held here on Friday,
and indications are that the roses
shown will be more beautiful than
ever before. This is an exhibit of
the flowers grown here and there
will be no parade of floats or any
thing on that order, though some of
the women of the Garden club, ull-
der whose auspices this show is held
are planning to hold a show on that
order next wear.
The soil of Thomasville has al
waps seemed especially adapted to
the growing of roses and so many
are grown in the flower yards Of
the city that the city is called "Thc
City of Roses"
