•* THE NINETY AND NINE. ♦
Whatever the cause, whatever the
wound,
That needless your hand may deal,
Forever, one heart will still be found
Where the deed hurt will not heal.
Trough the ninety and nine shall pass
it by,
With one shall the hurt refuse to die.
Whatever the burden of your song,
Hope-keyed or a throb with ill,
In the heart of one shall it roll along
In a lasting echo still,
And whether of woe or of weal the
strain,
In the heart of one will it echo pain.
Whatever the love your life shall
give,
If a vagrant flame or fast,
In the heart of one shall the memory
live,
Till loving and life are past.
And whether the love be false or
true,
One heart will hover its dream of you.
And years may come, and the years
may go,
While the sheen or shadow start,
Yet ever abides, somewhere, I know,
The wound of a constant heart,
The ninety and nine may smile, nor
care,
But, one forever, must know despair.
You may pass with a lilting song or
sad,
With a deathless love or light,
The ninety and nine respond, all
glad,
And forget you in a night.
But, ever, forever, remaineth yet,
One heart, God help us, that does not
forget.
tj-Will Allen Dromgoole, in Nashville

PINKSTON’S
TEN COMMANDMENTS.
1. Be interested in your neighbors,
but not curious.
, 2. “Good morning" is easy to say
and does not take a second.
3. Remember that common prop
erty, like lawns, alleys, fences and
' doorsteps, means common responsi
bility. ,
4. Borrow not that you be not bor
rowed from.
5. Respect your neighbor’s line of
celan clothes on rug-shaking day.
6. Walls have ears. Speak low if
you would have your affairs private.
7. Don’t consider the neighbor’s
house as a dumping place “any old
time” without knocking.
8. Don’t let the quarrels between
your own and your neighbor’s children
destroy friendliness between the pa
rents.
9. Signify willlngiiess to help your
neighbor in time of trouble, but no not
intrude.
10. Put a soft pedal on your 7-year
old practicing, especially if there is an
invalid in the neighborhood.
These ten commandments might
very well be doubled and even trip- ,
pled, if we would take into account all ■
the various little obligations which
one must fulfill if one would be neigh
borly, but the principle of the thing is
what really counts and the essence of .
neighborliness, which is but courtesy
in working order observed, the minor'
details will adjust themselves.

The Americus Light Infantry, one of
the crack military companies of the
Georgia National Guard, is drilling
every Monday and Thursday night in
preparation for their annual inspection
by the United States army and Geor
gia officers on Monday night, Jan
uary 24th.

Styles Changing
In Teachers As
Well as Dance
ATLANTA, Ga., Jan. 7. —That styles
change in dancing teachers as well as
in dancers is evidenced by the an
nouncement that Miss Lillian V. Mose
ley, only a short time ago one of At
lanta’s most popular society dancing
teachers, has gone into bankruptcy.
Miss Moseley files a schedule o f
$1,276 in liabilities, and no assets. The
liabilities include $25 she owes Vernon
Castle for five dancing lessons, and
numerous bills to New York milliners,
stationers, jewelers and local florists.
At the time Miss Moseley’s populari
ty wag at its height, there was In At
lanta a certain little man who eked
cut a bare existence by giving danc
ing lessons to a very few patrons, ex
tremely cheap, while his wife operated
the mechanical piano in a bare little
room. Today, while there is no con
nection between the two events, save
that they point the irony of fate, while
the former popular favorite is reduced
to the bankruptcy courts, the obscure
little teacher has “arrived,” has a
big studio on Peachtree street and is
getting rich.
discourse on eloquently.
The day before New Year Wilson’s
kind-hearted wife generously gave him
a dollar and told him to go out and
er joy himself. Nobody saw him until
late yesterday when he staggered
across the traffic officer’s “war zone”
at Peachtree and Marietta, and was
nearly run over by an auto before he
fell into the officer’s arms. He ad
mitted that he had been drunk eevr
since New Year’s Eve, which up to the
present time, is the long distance
championship for Atlanta.
