, IT IS B'uLL-BAT SEASON
1 , The newspapers of the state are conducting a
campaign for the protection of the bull-bat or what
, is termed in the north, the night hawk. This bird is
one of the greatest destroyers of insect pests of all
' kinds and its preservation is of all importance. ,
The Chicago Post has this interesting comment
• to make on the ravages of the hunter to kill the night
hawk or bull-bat without "rhyme or reason.” It says:
• "The night hawks are on their way south.
Down there people call them bull-bats and shoot
them for ‘fun.’ It’s poor fun for the bull-bats.
The federal authorities are trying to stop the
practice of making the night hawk a target
• for the inconsiderate shot gun. It is as hard to
make southern gunners give over shooting night
It ) Hawks as it is to make them Btop dove'drives, in
the course of which thousands of mourning doves
are slaughtered each year.
"Night hawks, like doves, have small fami-
:* Hies. Two eggs to the nest is the regulation
Sf i number. If like the robins, these birds were in
the habit of raising two or three healthy fam
ilies each year, there would be little danger of
. their extinction. But as it is they have sore
• ■•...need of protection.
bsrr; 4 “It ought not to be necessary to say that the
, night hawk is not a hawk at all, for the bird is
p ‘{’abundant enough■ lo make its habit of life easily
learned. The prOy'of this 'hawk' is insects,
Itoes, flies and all kinds of poisonous insect parts. .
It is a foe of the boll weevil. This latter fact
H ought' to help If in thd houth. •*«•”** «*«-«*«»■*
• .. The Chicago Post is absolutely correct in its an-
•ivsU of the value of the bull-bat, and how any.law-
ig citizen can take upon himself the respon-
f of killing this specie of bird is more than we
■ can comprehend. There is a state law prohibiting
i shooting of the bull-bats which should be en-
ce-d ;s drastically as is the game law relating to
or birds. The bull-bat should be protected in
son and the law violation guarded against in the
Z extreme. There is no bird which destroys poisonous
>t insects more than docs the night hawk and for that
reason every protection should be thrown around
I—these birds or else within a few years the bull-bat
' •‘will be extinct.
I ' WHO WILL BE NEXT7
A mania seems to be prevailing throughout the
..prld to unearth and disturb the remains of those
who lived ages ago who are known only to history.
1 Ail expedition of scientists has created much mter-
esi and worked up a morbid desire on the part of
thi public to resurrect the remains of some one who
in'his day and time was a conquerer, a monarch or
«ome other less in authority such as King “Tut" and
other celebrities. But the latest sensation tho
scientists have sprung on the public is the allcdged
discovery of the grave of Adam, said to be the first
man created. The location of “Eden” has been
found and tho garden where Adam and Eve spent
their cooing days and rnised Cain and Abel is lo
cated by these scientists beyond any peradventure.
‘Whether they will be able to show that Adam grad
ually developed from his ope ancestors is another in
teresting feature of the discovery. After all what is
: ‘there to be gained, even though the graves of these
ancient citizens are located by dismounting the
walls and recepticies built by loved ones in order
that the remains of those they cherished might be
protected for all time to come. Is it right at this
time for scientists or anyone else to take upon them-
r selves the responsibility of destroying that which was
sacred to those in the early days for no Other pur
pose than to satisfy a curiosity and a morbid desire
for notoriety and publicity. It is well to locate the
last resting places of these noted patriarchs, but for
■M&e sake of decency, let them rest in peace.
HP WHY BRUNSWICK?
Announcement has been made that the Everett
Motor Comany, a concern chartered in this county
L and composed of young business men who have
_ lived in Athens since they graduated from the Uni
versity a short time ago, has gone to Brunswick to
build its motors.
It is true that it purchased a motor concern that is
already in operation there but the question arises did
Athens take serious steps towards having this home
company operate here? Experts have told us in our
efforts to recure more manufacturing enterprises
that we must first look to the home field and what
has happened? Brunswick, a city that offers, out
side of harbor facilities, practically nothing that
Athens can’t offer, has stepped in and taken a con
cern some day promises to grow into an immense
If an effort was made by any organization that
should have such matters in hand to have this con
cern located here we arc not aware of it Such an
effort should have been made. .We can never expect
to interest outsiders in locating factories and big busir
n".-se.« here if we let other places fake away what is
Already our’s.
SALTS FINE FOR
I
tho character of some of the Jok**i
were such that we did not publish
them. However, at the mooting
Wednesday, the feature of'* the
program was- story-telling, which
proved’ to be one of the most ffi-
tortainlng the members have yet
pot on. Those who participated Jn
the program were,«T. H. Nl<* -••r-
son, C. D. Flanlgen, John J. Wilk
ins and Billups l’blnlzy. A prise
offered for the best story; the
j members by vote detomiin *d the
j successful contestant. John J.
Wilkins was unanimously a ward-
jed tho “booby” which was a go»t
* mounted on a running board, a toy
j which no doubt, will afford hini
much recreation and pleasure.
Dr. Preston Brooks has ably
1 answered through the columns
I of the Alumni Record, the
criticism of a member of the
legislature that tho University of
Georgia Is an institution for rich
men's sons. A paragraph from Dr.
Brooks’ crtfcle, says—“It Is hard
to gee how n man of sufficient In
telligence to get himself elected to
tho legislature j could honestly hold
such an opinion, refuted as it bos
been on so many occasions.” It Is
true, however, that such impres
sions are abroad In the state and
the timely article of Dr. Brooks
will aid In a great degree to set at
rest such unjust criticism as that
which has been credited to one
of the representatives of the gen
eral assembly.

vost'gation would convince the
most skeptical of tho true state
affair* ami that a large majority
of the members of the student
body come from ke great mass
people who are In moderate dr*
^instances.. Is It unjust to believe
that such men as tbo represents
tlvi* referred to Is prejudiced
ft gainst higher education? Certain
ly :t Is al reflection on tho Intel
ligonce of tbo man who is Ignorant
of tho real facts concerning this
institution and the personnel
tho student body. It Is a serious
statement to make and one
out foundation or fact—that the
University of Georgia l» a, rich
man's institution. Every honorable
rith.cn of the state should refute
hnrgo and we believe that
they will.

some folks say qf-each other has

{true, would cause many of us
fori that life was,not worth living
It says:
“Your daughter has the worst
voice I ever heard. She ought
have it riled.”
“That new suit of yours, Cuth-
bert, looks as though It had been
cut out with a cross-cut saw. It’
the limit.”
“Did you say your daughter
taking piano lessons? 80^ far
ever becoming a musician Is con
cerned. she might just as well take
prussic acid’.”
"No, I don't 11*0 your new houae.
It looks lik^ a cross between
Carnegie library In a town of 1,300
and a Queen Anne pickle factory.
Tere's no accounting for tastes.”
“! suppose I shall have to Invltr
you to get In my automobile some
time, but heavens I don’t want to.
I will try and call some afternoon(
when yofafe not at tome.”
