When I am done with wandering
Along the roads of all the world,
When all the lure and fret of spring
And all th® laughing winds that
swirled
About my path in younger days
No longer tempt me forth to share
The fortune of the wander ways,
The road will still be there, my son,
The road will still be there.
When I grow old and weak and frail
And only care for hearth and home,
When there’s no glamour to the trail,
The magic trail I used to roam,
When snow-capped peaks nor heav
ing sea
Nor ports and cities strange and
fair
Can bring a single thrill to me,
The trail will still be there, my son,
The trail will still be her®.
For though the aged rovers sneer
That there is nothing strange or
new,
Youth finds each day a new frontier
And wonders marvelous to view,
fjtill comes the call to men, in truth,
The urge to go—to do and dare;
Look in the burning heart of Youth;
The wanderlust is there, my son,
and ever will be there!
—By Burton Braley.

Churches of
Atlanta Are
Now Staging
ATLANTA, Ga„ Feb. 11.—Following
the recent successful effort of an At
lanta church to produce a regular
stage drama, a local Sunday school
ciass is planning to give a vaudeville
entertainment.
Os course it will be “polite vaude
ville,” just as they describe it on the
lig circuits, and Erwin Sibley, who is
i teacher of the class, will also be the
vaudeville director.
It is the Alpha class of the North
Avenue Presbyterian church. “Modest
Molly” will be the title of one of the
skits.
In the meantime the ministers of At
lanta are mightily divided on the
question of whether or not this com-;
bination of church and stage is a good
thing or a bad thing.
Numbers of them are convinced that
they will have to do something to make
the churches more interesting.

. MUflßftY CONTEMPT CASE
MAY COME UP MONDAY
DALTON, Ga., Feb. 11.—The famous
Murray county contempt case, in
which the members of the board of
county commissioners and their attor
ney, J .M. Sellars, were jailed at
Chatsworth for their ijpfusal to order
a discontinuance of the advertisement
of the tax levy for the building of the
new courthouse in Chatsworth, after
Judge Fite had granted an injunction
restraining them from making the
levy, will come up, In all probability,
for a complete rehearing next Monday
morning at Chatsworth.
After the supreme court had revers
ed the lower court, and the commis
sioners and their attorney had breen j
freed, attorneys for the plaintiffs filed
an amendment to the original petition,
■and Judge Fite allowed the amendment
setting the hearing for February 14.
He stated at the time that it would
probably mean a thorough investiga
tion of all allegations in both the orig
inal and amended petitions, and the
answers of the defendants.
The amendment alleges in substance
that the board of commissioners made
the levy knowing that an injunction
■■ ould lie asked, and that, after they
wer® served with notice of the injunc
tion, they refused to order the ad
vertisement necessary to complete the
levy discontinued.
