GRADUATION SEASON.
This is the season of the year when
the sweet girl graduate, clad in tier
creamy frock, and the brave lmy orator
clad inabtaok salt, a white tie and
mnoli assurance, step to tiio center of
the stage. The former will disease ab
stract problems, and inform us of the
well known faota that "beyond the Alps
Uet Italy” and "Woman ! sphere is the
Homo.” TUeytiong man will crate on
"American Ideals” and deplore "The
Growth of Materialism.”
And these tame subjects and drosses,
and actions will give much joy and
many gibes to the irreverent, to whom
the gradate has from tlmo immemorial
been fair game for sport. Bot in all so-
rionineee there la something fine, and
strong, and something that gives mnoli
hope for the fntnro in tills readiness of
our yonng Americans to taokle any sub
ject, and do their best to solve it. Vol
umes have been written about the glory
of good schools, and yet the half has
never been told. The boys and girls of
today aro-tho men and women of tomor
row. Wlintcvpr the jneu and women of
today can do to aid the graduate should
be dono cheerfully and often.
Lot yonr program for the commeuco-
moiltdaysbe something like this: At
tend the graduation exercises and ap
plaud the efforta of the yonng peoplo.
Don't sneer at their iilnsions, and scoff
at their mistakes. When yon wete
that ago yon didn't do half so well, in
all probability. Congratulate them
when they are through and tell them
they have done well and yon are proud
of them. Don't forget a word of com
mendation for the aoliool teacher. Ped
agogues have trials that have not bqen
beholdim by the eyes of ordinary mor
tals. The fact that :t man or woman
lias been a school teacher, we firmly be

AN INDICATION.
The Mother Goose Melody tolls ol
Tom the Filler’s too and states that:
“The only tone that lie could play ‘Was
over the hills and faraway." ’ Wo are
not anxious to acquire the reputation of
being able. to grind put from the office
baxoo, only songs of South Georgia’s
prosperity. But we have so many good
excuses that we have to do it about
three times a week.
This time the provocation is the or-
ganizatten cf the "South Atlantic and
Mexican Gulf railroad company.” This
corporation projects a road from Sevan
nth through Thomas and Decatur conn-
ties and on to the Golf of Mexico, at
some port not yet made public. The
line will tap a rich territory and if bnilt
will be a money maker from the skirt.
The character of the men behind the
project guarantees that it is not a mere
paper-plan.
Of coarse the proposition is still in an
embryonic stage bat that each s plan it
projected, is a distinct feather in South
Georgia's cap. When times are pros,
perons railroads bnild. They build not
for oharity, or from missionary motive-,
bnt from a desire to pat coin of the
realm in promotorial pockets.
Sooth Georgia better than any other
section, repays investment of time, mon
ey and energy, and railroad people know
this. The 8. A. and M. G. is not tin on-
ly road projected. The arrangements
have been practically com/deted for a
road connecting Dongiae with Perry,
Fla , with a prospect of Angoataas the
northern terminal. And of the rail-
tend building done in the post, a great
percentage has been done in Snath
Georgia.
So we maybe pardoned forgoing into
thAstorage room for stock pi irnses, and
"pointing with pride" to thisaud many
other evidences of Sooth Georgia'
growth and prosperity.

Quaint, Queer and Curious Salt Lafca
City.
The late CoL John Cockerell in The
Cosmopolitan said “There are three uni*
que cities in America, and one of these
is Salt Lake City.” It is not only uni
que in its temple, tabernacle and other
Mormon church institutions, but quaint
in appearance, with its wide streets, im
mense blocks and martial rows of shade
trees. It has, perhaps, more attractions
to the square,yard than any city in the
country, andl its climate, while temper
ate all the year round, is particularly
delightful in summer. The Great Sak
Lake, with its magnificent Saltair resort,
where the watfr is “deader and denser"
than that in the Dead Sea in Palestine
is an .attraction in itselL that people
come miles to see. There are many
cool mountain and lake resorts near by.
also numerous very pretty canon and
park drives, and hot sulphur springs.
Fishing and-hunting can be bad in every
direction. The trip from Denver to
Salt Lake City and Ogden, via the Den-
:r & Rio Grande and the Rio Grande
Western, is one of unsurpassed pleas
ure., Here nature is found in her stern
est mood and the whole line is a suc
cession of rugged canons, waterfalls
and picturesque valleys. No European
trip can compare with if in graudeur of
scenery. During the entire summer
there will be low excursion rates to Salt
Lake City and contiguous country. It
is on the road to the Pacific coast, if
that be your destination. W rite S. K.

His plan was to bay the liqnor in Ma
