Chickens, just ordinary, everyday com

with chicken feed and got the fowls ac

those factors in other businesses. Ad
mitting that railway romance 110 longer
centers around the frontiers of civiliza
tion, he suggests tlmt the railroad man
may find a more engrossing pursuit in
solving the big problem of development
of the country's resources.
There are more than ten thousand em
ployees on the Central of Gcorga rail
way, and its executives and officers have
prncticnly all conic from its own ranks.
Of the men filling executive positions
one was a ticket-seller, one a rodmmi,
a third started his railway career 11s u

the door of opportunity is still open to
the young man of energy and ability.
We, are nil prone to speak at times in
disparaging terms of our homo minis
ter’s efforts when we hear a sermon that
does not bristle with criticism or shine
with eloquence. Unjustly we compare
him with some lecturer or noted divine
we may have heard once. We give praise
to the lecturer or preacher whom we
hear once in 11 year, and who, perhaps,
has spent months preparing the lecture
or sermon he delivers. We do not stop
to consider that some preachers speak to
the same congregation fifty or a hundred
times ill the same year. It, is 110 small
tn< to prepare a good sermon. If you
don’t believe it, try it. If you do,'wo
are confident you will see your minister
in a new light, and have a much higher
appreciation of his pulpit efforts.
THE REAL GENTLEMAN.
To n sensible woman a gentlv-mm
ofight to be the equal of any one ’who
wears 11 title, no matter What limy be Ills
rank or stntion. To be a thorough gen-
tlomnn is to be that which neither money
nor estates nor Insignia enu bny, It is
peculiarly a birthright, It. is inherited
in the blood, and is sure to malm its
nppenvimee, even under the most nnpro-
pitious conditions,
There is 11 sort of false gentility that
ay lie soon acquired, and is affected
by snobs and the pnrveuucs that sudden
ly have accumulated riches, But this is a
cry cheap device in comparison with
the sterling article. No one can 'be de
ceived for long by the counterfeit, be
cause the mark of a real gentlonmn does
not consist Mono of entering a drawing-
00m gracefully, or of milking a bow in
tho proscribed anil proper form, These
accomplishments may bo accessary in or
der to help one fix his position in society,
but they are ia reality nothing compared
to those graces of mind, maimer and
morals that a true gentleman is sure to
possess.
A good definition of 11 gentleman is
one that adheres closely to the spirit of
that wise utterance of the Savior 1
' Therefore, nil things whatsoever ye
would that mini should do to you, do yo
uvxon so unto them.” A strict following
of this golden precept is infinitely hotter
for the individual and society than nil
the bowing and scraping under the sun,

Making Extraordinary
Mileage a Certainty -
Car Owners want more rubber on the tread where the wear is
hardest; more gum between cord plies to perfect a resilient and
powerful carcass. And they want a scientifically constructed Non
Skid tread with all angles and contacts to resist skidding and give
sure traction. Firestone Cord Tires have met these demands of
the car owners.
