EDIT RIAL S

after the papers had been print
ed and delivered. Then it was
too late.
A few weeks ago as the make
up man placed the type in the
front page of another Georgia
paper he snapped heads over
two stories. Over the story of
a religious affair there appeared
a slangy head composed by a
sport writer. Over a prize fight
article was the head of the re-
ligious story. Both were made to
appear ridiculous in the extreme.
When a congenial bunch of
editors get together many are the
funny stories related of such in

they are tragic. Some times the

The Alley of
Long Ago

Tragedy: A spark from the
chimney of Boston tenement de-
stroys an enormous pile of kind
ling wood on the roof. This wood
had been brought from miles
away by small boys of the fam
lilies that live below.
Throughout the hot summer
they had toiled, hauling the kind
ling in toy wagons or breathing
heavily as they trudged along
with their precious cargo in their
arms.
About 100 damages, re-
ported the prosaic hremen. But
the official record does not cover
the disappointment and heart
ache of the small lads whose toll
has vanished in smoke. To them
it is a tragedy.
Grown-up men will sympathize
with these poor Boston boys, as
memory takes them back to alley
proving of years gone by. The
alley had not been virtually elm
mated then by city congestion
and high land values.
1t was the choice playground
of red-blooded lads. There they
gathered kindling, collected old
iron and bones for the junkman,
or searched near the livery stable
for the symbol of good luck
the horseshoe.
Comes, too, IN memory, the
alley fences from whose tops we
raided fruit trees, and no fruit
ever tasted sweeter
The alley, as a boyhood insti-
tuition, is just about gone except
in smaller towns or villages. City

sweet, doesn't know what it is
missing. But a considerable army

Should a married woman take her
husbands name?
Ultra-modern theorists used to
debate this question ACCIDENTALLY,
but now it threatens to become prac-
teal
You dear notice something like
this: "Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Robin
son announce the impending mar
riage of their daughter, Miss Jane
Jones, to Baron Hugo Won Winkel-
stadt. Miss Jones will be remem-
bered as the beautiful Miss Wilson,
former wife of Hendrix Janson,
whoes divorce from Lieutenant Rob-
erts of the farines was the sensation
of society few years ago. She has
just been granted her introductory
decree from her present husband.
DR.. Durand, Whom she married last
year after divorcing young Percy
Montgomery, son of the Wall street
banker, with whom she eloped i'm
mediately after the separation from
Lieutenant Roberts. The marriage
with Baron Won Winkelstadt will
take place Immediately after the
decree becomes final, next October. ,
Now, in case like that, what is
the lady's name? If she keeps any OF
the same friends, from chapter to
chapter, they must have something
continuous to identify her by.
Apparently there is nothing con
tinuous but "Jane." And actually
during the last postwar recation o.
the same sort, after the French rev
olution, that was what they had tt
do.

Gas Taxed in All
States But Four

Gasoline is taxed by every
State in the union but four, Hi
nois, Massachusetts, New Jersey
and New York.
The first half of 1925, gas
yielded to those states taxing
gas 500, 1903, 1874, according to
figures from the United States
Department of Agriculture. Of
this sum, more than fifty millions
goes into road work.
Only July | the tax per gallon
was 5 cents in one State, 4 cents
in two states, 3 II in one State,
3 cents in twelve states, z IL
cents in one State, 2 cents in %
states and one cent in five states.
South Carolina is the state with
a 5 cent tax; North Dakota,
Rhode Island, Texas, Connect
cut and Maine are the states with
a one cent tax.
Georgia Scent tax melted her
ST. ,637,2Q3 up to June 30 of this
year. Florida with the same
4aEe collected $2,73l, 1897, and
North Carolina with a Accent tax
enriched her treasury to the sum
of $2,782,242. Rhode Islands
one-cent tax brought in $45, 900,
the lowest of all the states which
tax gasoline.
Just as long as the tax is put
back into the roads, the auto
owner will not kick on the tax,
but he has legitimate howl when
the tax is used for any other pur-
pose.
