THE BANNER, FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH 11, 1921. An old man going a lone highway rump nl the evening, cold und gray, To a ehasm vast and deep and whip. The old man crossed In the twilight dim. The soi.cn stream hail no fears for him: Hat he turned when safe on the other side And built n bridge to npan the tide. "Old man." said a fellow pilgrim near, "Yon nre wasting your strength with building here; Your Journey will end with the end ing day. You never again will rase this way: You've crossed the chasm deep and wide. Why build you this bridge at evening tide?" The builder lifted Ids old gray head “Good friend. In the path I have come." he said. "There followeth after me today, A youth whose feet must pass this way. This chasm that has been as naught to me, • To that fair-haired youth may a pit fall be: He. too, must cross In the’ twilight dim- flood friend. I am building this bridge for him!" ' —Selected. •MRS. WALTER JONES ENTERTAINS FOR MRS. EO ARNOLD. An Informal hut very lovely event of yesterday was the small bridg-* luncheon for Mrs. Ed Arnold, of To pekn, Kan., at which charming occa sion Mrs. Walter Jones was the gracious hostess. The handsome home was artistic ally decorated with daffodils and blue hyacinths; a basket of the bright blossoms centered the beautifully ap pointed table. / An elaborate and very delicious course luncheon was followed by a spirited game of bridge. , Mrs. Jones' parties, large or small, are always most happily planned, and the lovely hospitality extended yes terday was fully In keeping with for mer affairs, adding very much to the unusually (pilot week.

Indisputable and abundant evidence exists to prove what has been ad mitted time and again that Dr. Craw ford Long, of Danielsville, Ga„ In 1842 discovered surgical anesthesia through j sulphuric ether and demonstrated Its ! value March 30th of that year In an operation upon James Venable. Later, among others. Dr. Long instructed! Dr. Jamea D. Carleton, of Athens. Oa.. and In 1844 Dr, Carleton employe! sulphuric ether In extracting teeth. The report of the successful use of ether as an anesthetic circulated widely and In 1844 Dr. Horace Wells, of Hartford. Conn., -first used nitrous oxide. Morton having heard, of Wells' experiments, sought another agent and, at the suggestion of Dr. Charles T. Jackson, who had heard of Dr. Long's use of ether, employed ether in October, 1846. Morton and Jackson, with true yan- ken spirit, sought to monopolize the use of ether and In the contest and lawsuits that followed over the profits exhibited none of the spirit of phllan thropy and benevolence displayed by Dr. Long. In 1854 Dr. Jackson frank ly admitted Long’s priority of discov ery and use of ether ns an anesthetic agent. In 1861 Dr. Jackson, In the Boston Medical and Surgical Journal, publicly and widely gave full credit to Dr. Long for the discovery of an esthetic ether. The Journal of the American Medical association. In 1915, after a careful survey, conceded that no doubt remained ns to Long's priority. The panegyric Dr. Smith Williams has written belongs to Dr. Crawford Long, who, with profound and philan thropic spirit, sought neither profit or fame from ills wonderful discovery. —Mrs. W. P.
