A THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Wherefore | perceive that there is nothing
better than that a man should rejoice in his own
works; for this his portion: for who shall bring
him to see what shall be after him.~=Ecclesiastes
3:22. i
Blessed is the man that has round his work. One
monster there is in the world, the idle man—Carlyle
CATTON'S COMMENT
Probably nobody will”’ bother about it, but right
OV wouldi't be a bad time to drop a wreath or
two in the ocean in honor of the stunt fiyers who
made so many headlines, created so much excite
ment, and. provided such a long casualty list back
in the era .which began about 10 years ago.
The Pan-American Clippers are carrying mail,
express and passengers over the Pacific on regular
runs now, and similar ships will be shuttling back
and forth across the Atlantic bhefore long. And
something of a debt is owed the stunters who tackled
the oceans S 0 rashly back in the ’'2os.
it is hard even to remember the names of those
flyers now. There were serioug-mindeq technicians
~of the air, of course, such as Lindbergh and Cham
berlain and the various army men. There were also
- a gzod-many young daredevils who looked on the
broad, peril-haunted seas as a challenge to their
daring and who couldn’'t be happy until they had
' replied to the challenge, 2
~ Some of them made their flights successfully,
~ Janding in England or France or Hawaii just a.
'.5?;21;037 had planned; others set out and were never
%een again.
. But all of them did their bit to accumulate that
@tore of experitnce and knowledge which aviation
?iud to prove before it could loop the seas on a steady
commercial basis.
«; It used to be the fashion, you rémember, for se- !
" rious-minded folk to dismiss those flights as stunts. |
. We were assured that the flights proved nothing; |
" that an ocean crossing by air was so extremely haz- :
. ardous thatsit took luck and extraordinary skill to !
across; and that it was foolish to believe tha.tl
14* -or-miss, haphazard jaunts by stunters would |
' bring us nearer to the goal of regular trans
| pceanic passenger planes. ‘
~ That was all very true, of course—but somehow |
. we do have these trans-oceanic passenger planes{
" mow, we are about to have a good many more of
“ them, and it is hard to avoid th efeeling that these
‘Stunt fliers did a good deal to blaze the trail,
’ “ the stunters, if they did nothing else, showed
18 just how dangerous an ocean flight could be. They
; sized in an unforgettable way the need for
. perfect organization, elaborate preparation, and bet
ter planes.
e: v at least demonstrated that the job wasn't gO~
gto be easy; and they dia prove that it could be
me if everything was right. . ;
The lesson stuck. Pan American spent years get
ng ready for this Pacific line. It went to almost
elievable lengths to make its flights safe and se
|lt insisted on getting planes of a type that mast
‘designers thought it impossible to build in the days
S ' the stunters.
‘Now we are at the goal of those far-off days of the
nid-twenties. The old dream is coming true. And
t least a little of the credit ought to go to those
iring, fool-hardy, and occasionaly cfack-brained
,{« who set us to dreaming 10 yeafs ago.

AMERICAN EDUCATION WEEK |
i
The schools of Georgia are planning to
celebrate the week of November 8-15, as
American Education Week. It is the pur
pose of the various schocls observing the
week to hold daily programs and close on
Sunday evening with a general celebra
tion with the public participating.
1 American Education Week was inang
lurated in 1922, The innovation was sug
|gested by the American Legion, and
lthrough that organization the National
Education Association and the United
|States office of education were invited to
jcooperate, and these organizations set
\aside the week in which occurs Armistice
'Day for a national observance of educa
tion.
l Since 1922, the week has been observ
ed in practically all of the schools in
fAmerica and has proved to be beneficial
ito the schools and to the cause of educa
tion.
Tt is understood that the week will be
observed in this city with an appropriate
program held daily.
COUNTERFEITING ON THE WANE
| The counterfeiting racket is an old|
'game, but worked successfully sos the|
|time being—that is until the bills began|
Ito circulate, and soon thereafter, the se-!
‘cret service men of “Uncle Sam” usually
\found the “feiters” and gave them jobs |
iin the federal prisons. There is always
'more or less counterfeit money in circula
|tion, some easy to discover while other !
bills are well nigh perfect and only ex
lpert bankers or secret service men are |
able to detect the counterfeit from the ;
loriginal and bona fide government certif- 1
iicate. 4
| The treasury and the secret service de- :
lpartments of the governme&t have work
jed hand in hand in an effort to run down
‘and break up the racket. Their efforts
'have resulted encouragingly, and from!
'reports issued by these departments, there
\is little spurious bills or coins now in eir
|culation. Years ago, the ‘“green goods”
‘business was most profitable, Letters were
'sent out from New York to people all over
‘the country explaining how they could
purchase thousands of dollars of counter
feit money for only a few dollars of real
lmoney. Many of those receiving the let- .
‘ters, sucker like, fell for the proposition,
'which usually required a trip to New
IYork, in order to be able to make the
;purchase. On arrival, the ‘“‘sucker” would
|seek an - engagement with the broker
‘whose address and directions as how to|
‘act was made most explicit in the letter.|
'The unususpecting would-be-get rich|
‘quick buyer would be sent from room to
‘room in a hotel and finally reaching the
last degree, he was closely questionedi
and after satisfying the counterfeit sales
man that he was in real earnest in his de-i
]sire to get rich quick, he was reqpested
'to pay over so much money for which het
}was to receive ten times the amount in
'the bogus money. He was handed a Pafik'l
ORI SR NWY < RTINS TSR L - PERRT NS ey SRR . - 1
age neatly and tightly wrapped with the
assurance that when he left the hotel he
‘would find the contents of the package
‘ljust as represented, but the obligation im
| pressed upon him wasnot to openit until he |
had left New York, for fear it might be|
| detected. When the sucker did open his|
package, it usually contained paper, but
‘not paper money. |
{ This kind of a racket was worked for
|years until finally government secret serv
'ice men got on to the racket and soon had
!the perpetrators under arrest. However,
{the records show thatthese ‘“‘greengoods”
{men made fortunes out of such eéasy per
lsons who allowed their curiosity to out
‘weigh their better judgment. The repeal
of the prohibition law helped to increase
lthe counterfeit racket, in that many of
‘the bootleggers in the large centers of the
country entered the ‘“‘green goods” game.
Now, however, the secret service men
have the racket well in hand, and very
little of the “money making” business is
|being carried on. And another reason for
lits failure is that our people are learning
better than to be caught on lsuch pro
|posals or to become violators of the law.
PERMANENT REGISTRATION
Oranized labor has inaugurated a
movement for the abolition of permanent
registration—that is after a person has
registered once and thereafter keeps his
or her poll taxes paid, their names re
main on the registration list permanently.
This organization favors a return to the
old system which reauired registration
annually in order to be qualified to vote
in city, county and state elections or pri
maries. The only objection (ifitcan so be
termed an objection) we can see to the
permanent registration is that in the
death of a voter, some one, who is not
entitled to vote, might vote inthe name of
Isome who have died since the last election
lThat defect, however, is easily remedied
by the registrars who are supposed to
purge the registration list annually, and
‘all such names are required to be stricken
from the voters list or in case of those
'who have moved from the place in which
they are registered, likewise procedure
is required of the county registrars.
| To abolish the system of permanent reg
istration would not iénprove on the pro-]
tection from illegal Voting, but it would
impose a hardship on citizens by requir
ing them to register each year.
Of course, local nor the state commit
tees would have the power to make such
a change in the present law, but such ac
(tion would require an act of the legisla
iture, which we hope will not be done.
There is a tendency on the part of some
people to change laws, too often for the
purpose of satisfying some grievance
more of a local character than for the
|real benefit of all concerned.
DID IT EVER
OCCURTO ‘U’
Mot Such of Ayt
By HUG!" ROWE
Manager Robinson, ¢f the
Palacs, Georgia and Strand
theaters, is to ze congratulat
¢d on the splendid pictures
presented at the local theaters.
The Lucas and Jenkins organiza
tion is one of the largest in the
south, and through their policy,
Athens is being given a class of
pictures not equaled in a town of
its size in the country. Many first
run pictures’ are shown here, giv
ing their patrons the best to be had,
and an evening of worth while en
tertainment. The picture industry
has grown to be more than enter
tainment; its presentations of edu
cational subjects and its newg fea
tures of the happenings of the
world are instructive’ and benefi
cial to the publie.
The spoken drama, musical
comedies, comic and grand
opetas have just about been
replaced by the sound and
talking pictures.
There are few cities in the co-un-‘
try where theaters for the presen-i
tation of legitimate shows are con-],
ducted. Practically all of the road!
show theaters have given away to}
the movies. Productions on thel
screen presented by the highestl
class of performers can bHe seen
and heard for a few cents~lessl
than the price of a balcony ticket!
for a road show. With these mod-!
ern inventions, the amusement'
loving public will not pay two and
three dollars the ticket when they!
can get just as good entertainment
for a mere song of a price.
Long before the motion or i
talking pictures wers thought
of, the road cshows held sway [
thrcughout the country, and i
Athens was no exception to |
other towns. ‘
The old Deupree Hall, on Broad
street, was considered one of the
modern theaters in those days.
Many of the greatest actors and[
actresses the nation has ever knowng
played here. As we recall some‘
of them were Joe Jefferson, in ‘Rip
Van Winkle”; Robert Downing and
Eugenia Blair, in Shakespearian!
»playe; Roland Reed and Isadore
Rush, Sol Smith Russell, and many
other celebrities in the comedy line,
besideg George Wiison and Happy
Cal Wagner, the minstrel stars of
‘thos.l days. Later years, the build
ing of the New Opera house 9n
Washington street, known in more
f-recem yvears 4g the Colonial thea
‘ter, Deupree hall was abandoned
| as a show house and the auditorinm
rconverted into offlces,
However, not all of the road
show performers are displaced
by the movics. There are yet
left vaudeville and comedy skit
entertainers, who appear cn the
movie stages.
Quite often Athens theater goers
have an opportunity of witnessing
high class vaudeville and comedy
skits at the Palace theater which
prove quite refreshing, especially,
to those who remember the old
time entertainment during the road
period. However, this generation
is sold on the ‘“movies” and the
road show is a relic of the past,
never to return. -
“A yocung man,” said the
readymade philisopher, “should
learn to say ‘No’.” .
‘“Yes,” replied Farmer Comtos-‘:
sel, “I feel that my boy Josh ought
to take at least that much trouble.
‘When I ask him to help around the
place he simply gives me a haughty
stare’ |
It is understood that a num
ber of parking lots will be in
readiness for the visitors to
park their automobiles while
here Saturday for the foothall
game.,
Of course, these parking lots
will. be of a temporary character’
and not as a permanent improve
ment. However, we helieve. that
a half ‘dozen or more such places
would receive' a liberal patronage,
day in and day out, if conveniently
located. After the early hours
of the morning, there is liktle park
ing space left on the streets until
after a late hour in the evening.
Athens has out grown its parking
space facilities on the streets, and
other placeg will have to be found,
if visitors and shoppers are to he
‘accommodated. e :

THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GFORGI*
SALUTE TOJLowe
BEGIN HERE TODAY
Kate and Caroline Meed
live on a farm, Meed Meadows,
with their lovable ‘and indo
lent grandfather, Major Sam
Meed, and two old Negro ser
vants, Althy and Zeke. Kate is
engaged to handsome Morgan
Prestiss, who neglects her for
Eve Elwell, beautiful and
wealthy.
Major Meed loses Meed
Meadows to Jeff Howard, bit
ter, young mountaineer who
owns goal lands. Kate is rude
to Jeff and he responds with
incolence, though he is drawn
to her. The Meeds move to a
tenant house nearby. !
Kate learns that her family
buried a valuable silper tea
service during the Civil War
and that it was never located.
She broods over this news and
one night persuades Zeke and
Althy to go with her to dig
for it. They find nothing, and
Kate is shot in the shoulder.
When they reach home Althy
dresses the wound and Kate
goes to bed without waking her
sister.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
| CHAPTER XVII |
‘; Kate recovered from the shoul
!dex' wound. “But you're going to
have an ugly little scar there,”
iCaroline pointed out. “The docto:
might have prevented that.”
Kate said, “I know it's not ethi
cal to he your own surgeon. 1
‘rm-kr)n 1 deserve the scar. But [
‘couldn't hear for Doctor CGrace to
know what a fool I'd been. Be
lsidc-s'l saved the price of his
visits. That means my $lO bill
|is velvet.”
“You need a pair of shoes,”
Caroline suggested. “And you
could do with a new hat. We
}could both use stockings—"
“We'll manage to get the stock
!ings,” Kate answered, ‘“from next
[week's egg money. But that's all
{ that’'s going to be wasted on
‘clothes. We're going to have a
i party 1y
Caroling was aghast, Kate had
made the money ' by selling a pile
of old ‘“Godey's Ladies’ Books”
that had been stored in the attic
at Meed Meadows and discovered
at the tlme of their move. “Are
you delirious again, Kate?” Caro
line demanded.
“I don’t see why the desire for
a party points to delirium. We're
indebted to everybody, but that's
not the only reason I want a
party. We've got to show people
we still enjoy being alive, We've
got to show them misfortune has-
n’t gotten us down.”
“Very commendable” Caroline
answered, smoothing the counter
pane on the bed she was making.
“__And the third reason, darling?
The real reason for . wanting to
throw a party when we're stoney
broke ?".
Katg blushed. “I often wish you
were a fool, Caroline. . ... The
real reason is Morgan, of course.
I haven’t been blind to the way
things are. He's rushing Eve in
the good old family-friend, big
brother guise. I've too much pride
to call him up and ask for a date,
but T've a feeling that if we. could
be thrown together for a few
carefree hours, things would be
all right with us again.” :
“It makes sense,” Caroline ad
mitted. Then, thoughtfully, “But
we’d have to ask a lot of people.
How'd we do it on $107?”
| “We could do it explained
Kate, talking rapidly, “hecause
T've got a. trump up my sleeve. A
hay ride! Our team to the big
lwagon, and Mr. Grayson’s team
and wagon. We'd make his lake
lthe destination, and we'd, cook!
{hamburg steaks and coffee on
grills!”
l “1 see,” Caroline said. *“Who's
to ask Mr., Grayson, by the way?”
“You,” answered Kate rather
contritely. = Mr. Grayson was a
kindly, prosperous widower of 50
who admired Caroline excessive
lv. . Though his *lake” was only
an artificial pond; it was not to
be scorned by people who lived
20 miles from a sizable river. Mr.
Grayson himself prized his ornate
Ilittle lake highly and rarely per
mitted it to be used except for a
Sunday sehool picnic once a year.
Caroline looked out of the win
dow. Presently she said unhap
‘pily, “T could swing it for you, of
lcourse. But. don’t you think that'’s
asking rather a lot of me, Kate?
We'd have to ask Mr. Grayson
to drive his own team. I'd have
to sit beside him. I'd have to
sit beside him. I'd have to stiek
stick by him all evening.”
Kate weighed the matter, *I
I‘guess you would,” she %dmitted.
ffSuddenly she hated herself for the
smug little scheme. She was ash
}amed of trying to force Caroline
!in;o obligating herself to a man
fwhom she disliked. “Forget it,
| darling!’ she said, and meant it.
But Caroline would not forget
it. She became keen to make the
dacrifice, now that she had
thought it over. To prove this to!
Kate, she saddled her horsg and
rode over (o the Grayson place.
at once to make the arrungements.
Thus the party got under Way,l
speedily and impulsively, |
The omens seemed good, for cv
eryone accepted.
Caroline asked Morgan (first.
She and Kate had decided that if
he could not coma on the night
set, they would set a night when
he could.. It must be done.cas
ualy, they agreed, so - that he
would not suspect his importance.
But no changes were necessary.
He seemed to find the invitation
intriguing.
“Well, now!” he exclaimed with
shis famous charm working full
blast, “A hay ride, Caroline! No
body would turn that down! Tell
Kate to save me a seat next her
on the wagon—"
The night chosen for the hay
ride was to have a full moon.

Caroline, who had become almost
as enthusiastic as Kate, dwlarod,‘
“we don'ty care how hot it is. It‘ll{
be gorgeous on top of a moving
hay wagon!” {
Kjte said, “Everybody seems 10
think it’'s a clever idea. I'm sur-‘
prised somebody hasn’t Illoughtl
of it sooner. Old-fashioned stunts’
are clever.” |
After it has been fair weather
for a week, one somehow forgets“
about rain. When a few clouds
gathered on the afternoon of the
eventful day no one gave them sm--!
jous attention. Just trailing wisps
they seemed to be, that lessened
the blazing sun’s heat for intermit
tent moments. It was not until 5
o'clock that Kate said, anxiously
scanning the sky, “Those cloudg
look nasty, Caroline. I don’t like
the way they’'re getting together—"
Caroline, who had been icing the
the cakes Kate had baked, looked
upward. “I've been wanting to ask
Gran’dad about them for an hour,
but I can’t locate him. Zeke and
Althy both say ‘rain,’ but you can't
count on them. They've never been
good weather prophets—"
“There's still time to call it off,”
Kate said mournfully, “We could
postpone it until tomorrow night.”
' “] don’'t see how we could now,‘”i
!her sister pointed out. ‘“The cakes
|would get stale. The hamburg
| steak would spoil. The buns would
lget hard. No—let's go on with
iu .
! It did not begin actually to
| sprinkle until the last guests had
lnrrived. The little house seemed
|bulging with people. Caroline
{ cheerfully recalled the saying
|about a crowded house insuring a
lzood time, and hoped for the best.
Kate announced blithely, “We're
| keeping the hay-wagons under co
{ver in the barn. When it clears
|nff, we'll go!”
| It was a gallant prophecy which
' fooled no one, The slow, steady
| beat of rain wag not the way of
|a passing shower. They all knew
i that. Spirits drooped like wet hen
ifeathers and from the very start
iKate’s party was doomed.
Mr. Grayson came in from the
barn, looking embarrassed Vet
pleased to be there. He attached
himself to Caroline, so that she
could not forget htm, even for a
moment. Indeed there was nothing
else for the poor man to do. Kate
saw that the crowd regarded him
as a tiresome old bore and won
dered what he was doing there.
“We were to use one of Mr
Grayson’s hay wagons and go to his
lake,” she explained vivaciously,
and then hated herself for brmg
ashamed of him. “This,” she
‘thought wildly, “is what 1 get for
;using him!”
. Someone tried the radio but its
worn speaker emitted worse sounds
'than usual. Far worse, because
of the storm in the air.
Kate said in Caroline’s ear,
“We've got just three whole decks
lof cards and two tables. What?”
“No!” Caroline wnispered back.
“Pencil games!”
Paper and pencils were produc7;
ed and games were duly begun. |
Yet, not even with Cynthia Chen- |
ault’s help, could they put them |
across. Counles, set on Lw‘os-lng,;
tried to break away and set up |
for themselves, but . there was no,
plage for them to go except the
kitchen. And that room, they soon
found, was filled by two low-spirit- |
ed colored people and a great deal
of unaccountable smoke, {
It was inevitable, Kate decided
afterward, that the Kkitchen flue
‘should have chosen that time to
smoke, It wag that kind of a
}-night. l
At 11 o'cock the steaks werel
cooked and the rolls buttered and|
toasted amid a smoke screen from
the kitchen stove. Guests cough-’
ed. Cooks choked .. . The cakesx‘!
that were cut afterward were in-j‘
credibly sticky, for the icing had
never hardened. The coffee cream
ywas faintly sour. : ‘
Just before midnight the Major
came in, smelling of whiskey. I-In‘]
greeted them all gallantly and ra
ther pompously before Zeke andl
Johnnie Baird helped him upstairs
to his room while a pitying, shock
ed silence descended on the little
house. Kate's eyes sought Mor
gan’s in a question’ despair, but
he did not leok at her. “Maybe he
[thlnks that’s easier for me, she
|de(9nded him -to herself.
In a little while the girls went
up .the narrow stairway to the
dressing room for their wraps. A
helpless embarrassment gripped
them all ag they took turns before
the cracked mirror that hung over
the dresser. No doubt they were
remembering Kate's and Caroline’s
rooms at Meed Meadows and were
shocked by the contrast.
When Kate told them goodnight
at the front door her heart was
like a stone. It did not matter te
her that she had discovered Ewve
Eiwell quietly inviting a chosen
few to “come to my house after
ward,” or that Morgan was at
Eve’s elbow, evidently the first of
the chosen. Nothing mattered.
She only wanted them all to go
