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!" '

•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.

OF THE UNIVERSITY.
The auxiliary to the Y. M. C. A.
nl the University will meet this after
noon nt 4:3d o'clock In Peabody hall.
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.
