Certain uncorroborated stories have appeared lo the columns of The Houston Post—stories that no leas authority than the president has char acterized as “nature faking." In the Interest of truth and veracity. The Georgian baa exposed the utter Impossibility of any such things happen ing as The Post records. *“■ Rabmt-devourltig bass, bens that lay eggs enough en route to distant markets to pay the freight and simitar chronicling! heve been mercilessly exposed by this paper. Unhappily many reputable paper* over the country have not only swallowed The Post stories, but have evolved other* even more weird. 'Modestly and unassumingly The Georgian has printed aome well au thenticated accounts of happenings In this state. Attention la directed to a story appearing In yesterday's Georgian concerning the attempt of an Atlanta hen to commit suicide. The hen Is tho property of Colonel Mike Covington, a gentleman of character and strict veracity. A modest man, too. who told the story with tears In his eyes. It does not appear, but The Georgian has no doubt that Colonel Covington had cause for remorse. It Is probable that he spoke harshly to the biddy or through some error visited unintentional slight upon her. Of that he will not apeak. But he waa horrified on going Into the poultry yard the other morn ing to find his favorite hen hanging by the neck from tome stout vines. He rushed forward and released the suffering hen and tenderly ministered to her until she had recovered. Colonel Covington says that he can never forget the expression of sorrow and despair written upon her countenance. She looked at him with such deep reproach, mixed with affection, that ha was moved to tears. From a less reliable source than Colonel Covington even Tba Geor gian would look upon this unusual occurrence with suspicion. But from such an unimpeachable wltnesa It Is accepted In perfect faith. Moreover the young man who reported It for The Georgian Is so enamored of truth that be will not tell his wife that be bos been to the lodge, when be la out late evenings. LETTER FROM AN OLD LADY IN A GEORGIA TOWN. Tho following from Collier's for June 15, la the echo of a voice from the South rich In that quality which Southerners love but nowadays bear all too seldom: Slaves of the lamp in our unlovely little Babel, we scurry about from year end to year end at the bidding of our various masters. We never get rich enough nor famous enough, and although we croak a great deal and pretend we don't like It, we know we do. Most of us came to Nov York from quieter places, where folk* lived every day Instead of once a week, and away back In our congested cerebra Is • picture of the place wo are'golng to when the right tima comes and wo can run away to the Islands of the Bleat. All of us In the speclsl little eddy from which this paper Is weekly spouted forth have such a picture, now, at any rate, if wo didn't before—through the happy thought of the "Life In Our Town” con test—thla letter came: “LaGrange, Ga., March 18, 1907. "Dear Colliers—I am an old lady Just entering my 71st year, but I lovo my old town and want to tell you about It. LaGrange Is In mlddlo Georgia, Just two hours ride from Atlanta. It has about 8,000 Inhabitants and Is Just full of life. We have six cotton mills, a guano factory. Ice factory, two large female colleges and a pub lic school with about 1,000 students. Paved streets, electric lights, and three large banks controlling lots of money. We have a his toric town, too, for hero that silver-tongue Benjamin H. Hill spent his happy childhood, 'here he brought hla young bride, here his children wero born and here his first maiden speeches proclaim ing to the world what a grand man he was to he. His old colo nial homo still stands here as a memorial. Here also were the homes of Walter T. Colquitt and Governor Alfred H. Colquitt, United States senator from Georgia. “LaGrange Is called the City of Elms and Roses, and If you could see It In spring time you would certainly say the name was honestly given. Our homes have all beautiful gardens I do wish some of the Collier staff would come and see us and our town and let us show you what Is true Southern hospitality and what a fine climate, water, etc., as well as a great cotton markot. "Now, dear Colllor’s, I want to thank you for your fearless manner In attacking all those quaok medicines, for It Is high time for them to bo suppressed and you doserve tho credit for coming boldly to tho front, for It seems no one else had the cour age. "I like your candor In defondlng that grand old man, General Robert E. Lee, but will stop for fear I have run over my 1,000 words. Pleaso promise me You will not put this tn tbo waste basket. Very respectfully, "MRS. CAROLINE E. GAY." ‘Waste-basket! Inscribed In our hearts, rather, set up on the bright mountain peak of Hope, where the aun shines three hundred and slxty slx days In the year! We like to think of the South as ono of those Blessed Islands, left tn a busy and sometimes careless world, where everything Is kindness and courtesy and good cheer. Sometimes, when we are misun derstood and Southerner* write ua to go off and Jump Into the tea, this Is hard to do, and we are hurt and puttied. LaGrange. however, make* our dreams come true. We are all going there aome day—going to walk under tho elm trees, sit on the white porticos and look out at those rose gardens; but first and most Important of all we will find that particular white portico and rose garden from which this letter came, there to greet and to thank, face to face, as we do now In these dull words, the gracious hostess who has restored our Illusions and been so kind. THAT $6,000 SHOULD BE SUBSCRIBED NOW. A campaign which ha* been on for some time In the Interest of a Young Men’s Christian Association building at the University of Georgia at Athens will come to a close Saturday. It Is proposed to erect a stru» ture that will cost about 176,000. Of thla amount (70.000 has been secur ed by the sub-committee of the state committee of the Y’ouug Men’s Christian Association. Five thousand dollara la yet needed to Insure the building. The Georgian la heartily In sympathy with the movement, and treats that friends of tho association and of the university will respond liberally within the two days remaining, that the sum necessary to complete the building fund may be In hand promptly. The great majority of the itudenta at the state university come from all parts of Georgia. Of necessity, they live In boarding houiea while attending college. Officially, the untverstty does not assume to took after the social and religious welfare. The Young Men's Christian Association would supply this want. The special committee to secure funds for the building Is composed of Chancellor David C. Barrow, C. A. Rowland. E. J. Bondunnt and Harry Hodgson. This commltteo has Issued an offl. dal statement setting forth the need of having such an Institution on tbo university campus and urging that those Interested lose no time In send ing In pledges to make up the sum necessary to completo the fund. 8umtuer resort shows and the Jamestown midway will find plenty of spieling material when the col leges turn out tbelr stock of orators.

He does not expect to get broad cloth for the price of canton flannel. He does not eipect to get a race horse for the amount he would have to pay for a country plug. He does hot expect to boy a 1907 Imported model tooting car for the price of o year before last Caroline buggy. He doesn't even expect to get n DelmouTco lunch for the prices that obtain nt a quick lunch joint. He knows that there It a mighty Inti mate connection In this world between the price of e thing aud the money It will coet, nnd that If you get the best of any article you heve to pey for It.
