A GOOSE HUNT.
Several weeks ago The Leader
Tribune carried a news story of the
prowess of our fellow-townsman, Mr.
J. L. Long, as a wild goose chaser,
literally speaking. That prose story
was not at all discreditable to his
ability as a marksman, but the pee
tical version of this great episode in
the sporting life of our distinguished
nimrod and disciple of Isaac Walton,
which was written by his young
daughter without his knowledge and
which we are privileged to publish
below, throws some new and interest
ing side-lights on the event. It also
reflects no little cred't upon the
young poetess, as well as upon the
hero of the poem.
Jimmie for some wild geese did go
To Flint River banks, not long ago
After an hour in the sunny bay,
A flock of geese came over his wa
He aimed his gun straight at th

But here his luck did decrease.

His geese he felt he was compelled to
get,
.'Iven if he did have to get wet;
So into the river after hie game!
Such an act would surely increase his
fame.
But as he rose to the surface once
more,
His geese had decreased to the num
ber of four.
'Too bad! too bad!” to a friend said
Jimmie,
But my family is small and six is
too many. H
So he hurried home, wet to the skin,
To divide his geese with more than
one friend.

WOMAN’S MISSIONARY
SOCIETY, M. E. CHURCH.
JUDGE COBB’S CHARGE.
(From The Atlanta Constitution for
October 17, 1919.)
Upon the convening of the Clarke
County grand jury for he Octohei
term of superior court, Judge An
drew J. Cobb, a great Georgian
and well worthy of his iTustrious
name, delivered a charge on the
lynching menace that should sink
deeply into the heart oi every cit¬
izen who is in sympathy with the
principles of dtmocra' c government.
In it he said:
*< One of the greatest, if not the
greatest, evils of the present day
is disrepect for authority in every
phase of life where authority is to
be exercised, and especially disre¬
spect for the law and the authorities
constituted to enforce the law.
The preservation of our institu
tions,” Judge Cobb went cn to say,
“absolutely depeds upon the lav
being enforced through the const
tuted authorities of the land; and
he who arrogates to himself the au
-hority to enforce the law without
he sanction of the law is an enem\
to the law and to civilization, Any
set of men who take it upon them¬
selves to punish a human being and
inflict upon that bein.j the death
penalty where they have n > author¬
ity from the law of the land to au
thorize their conduct are, in the
sight of heaven and of earth, mur
derers and should be dealt wit’; by
the law ol the land and by public
sentiment of the country as such.
> < Any man or set of men, he con
tinued, “who condones, approves, or
apologizes for the death of a human
being by a lawless mob is morally
guilty of the murder which the mob
has committed. Any man or set of
men that fails on all appropriate oc
casions and times to speak out bold¬
ly in condemnation of mob violence
does not measure up to th* f ill du¬
ties of true citizenship.
.. What I have said has its applica¬
tion in every case of mob violence,

it makes no difference whether
victim of the mob >s guilt/ or mno
cent, or what crime he is
with or may be guiltv of, or what, race
he belongs to. The death of a human
being by a mob is murder, nothing
less, and every person connected
therewith, whether they should be
meted out the punishment which the
outraged law would impose upon
them or whether they escape on ac¬
count of a false public sentiment,
will bear throughout them liveo the
mark of Cain upon them brows.”

A PEN PORTRAIT OF JESUS.
(From the New York World as
quoted in The Atlanta Constitution.)
ROME.—From the dust of more
than 1,900 years a studious modern
Roman has rescued a pen-portrait
of Jesus Christ. It was drawn in
one of the letters that Publius Len
tulus, who was a Roman procon¬
sul in Palestine and knew the Sa¬
vior in Nazareth, wrote to a friend
in Italy.
.. There has appeared here a man
if strange virtue,” Publius Lentulus
wrote. ‘‘His disciples call him
The son of God.’ He cures the sick
and raises the dead to life. He is
t very handsome man and worthy of
all our attention. His hair is blond
and covers his shoulders in separate
curls and is parted in the middle,
ifter the fashion of the people of
Nazareth. His forehead is smooth
>nd serene, without marks or wrin¬
kles; his countenance is pink; his
nose is well formed; his beard, of
he same color as his hair, is parted
in the middle.
“In his gaze is an expression of
wisdom and openness; his eyes
are blue, but shine terribly when he
reproves people; but in conversation
they are amiable. His observations
are expressed with liveliness, al
though he always remains calm. No
body has ever seen him laugh; but
he often weeps. Of a good height
and straight figure he has very beau
tiful hands and arms. His manner
of speaking is serious. He speaks
but little, and is modest. In short,
he is as handsome as a man may be.
They call him Jesus, the Son of
Mary. tt
Expert antiquarians and students
of history pronounce the letters of
Publius Lentulus to be entirely gen
uine. For centuries they were for
gotten save by students of Latin
and ancient Rome. The advent of
Christmas brought the letter quot
od to the mind of an old professor
here. He translated it into modern
n SHE GOMES! “I
You no doubt have heard this expression many times. It
was uttered the first time hy a farmer standing on the side of
the road in front of his house, when he saw his first automobile.
The machine came so fast and was gone so soon that he couldn’t
help but yell out as he did.
It is equally true of BISSELL TRACTOR CONTROL HARROWS
