THE ATLAXT.I TRI-WEEKLY JOURNAL.
■ The Country Home
BY MRS. W. H. FJBLTON
Some Presidential Election Years
As the year 1920 is to be the scene
•of many elections, beginning with
I coroner and going upward to presi
-1 dent, the interest of the public will
I not be allowed to lag or wane, as the
I months roll on, until the first Tues
| day in November, when the last of
: the elections, state and national, will
! be over.
My mind goes back to the year
j 1896. when Mr. W. J. Bryan was
nominated by the Democrats and Mr.
Wm. McKinley was elected by the
Republicans.
Many of our readers will remem
ber the famous speech about cross
of gold and free silver coins—that
carried the Democratic convention up
I into higher regions—like the modern
. airplane elevates the air-navigator
‘ out of himself —in the ether of the
l skies.
In the election of 1896, Mr. Bryan
carried all the southern states ex
cept Kentucky—22 in number. Mr.
McKinley carried 25 states. An old
i volume of the "Review of the Re-
* views” lies before me and, I see the
| map of our United States as it divid
;ed politically in the 1896 election.
1 The border states of Delaware, Mary
, land. West Virginia, and Kentucky,
gave pluralities for the McKinley
I electors. But Mr. Bryan also carried
| ten of the western states. Only Cal
i it’ornia and Oregon went Republican.
Approximately thirteen million
votes were cast. Os these. McKin
nley received over seven millions.
Mr. Cleveland had served his two
terms in the White House. He, like
I Mr. Wilson, was a popular idol in
: the southern states with the organ
j ized Democracy when he was first
elected. When he went out of the
president’s office, March 4. 1897, his
greatest foes were of his own party.
| History is repeating itself, after a
I long interval of political loyalty to
■ the two great organized parties of
i Democrats and Republicans.
i President Wilson and President
I Cleveland have been the only Demo
: cratic presidents since the Civil War
:of the sixties. Each will have served
■ eight years, on March 4, 1921. The
I conventions to be held in Chicago
i and San Francisco may furnish some
1 startling surprises before the ides of
i the coming November. The plain
; people of our country will be ini
’ mensely pleased when the presiden-
j tial election is accomplished and off
I their hands, no matter what the out-
I come may be. We can, I think,"rely
! upon the essential conservatism and
j sagacity of the American people.
I was “full grown and twenty-one”
| when the campaign of Abraham Lin
| coin ended in victory. It was im
! possible to expect success with those
I three opposing tickets in full sway.
1 That one fact alone defeated the
j Democrats of the nation. Stephen A.
i Douglas had a running mate in Her-
■ schel V. Johnson, of Georgia, on one
j ticket. John C. Breckenridge, of
! Kentucky, headed another ticket, and
i there was still another. The Bell
; and Everett ticket.
The Democratic party in the north
! was divided beyond hope of recon
: ciliation. Janies Buchanan, the
I president went out of the White
I House with his strongest enemies
( and bitterest foes in his own party.
The Taft administration went out
lin the same manner. Mr. Taft car
| ried a number of counties in Georgia,
I when he was first elected in 1908.
I Nevertheless he ran so behind in the
I north, in the campaign of 1912, when
I he sought re-election that he carried
i only two states out of the forty
i eight; only Utah and Vermont.
Mr. Cleveland was importuned to
' seek a third term, but he emphati
cally refused to entertain the idea.
He moved to Princeton, N. J.,
where Professor Woodrow Wilson oc
cupied the chair of jurisprudence in
Princeton university. It is a singu
lar coincidence that both of these
Democratic presidents were neigh
bors and living in the same town—
twenty-four yours ago.
It is predicted that President
Woodrow Wilson will seek a third
term and a nomination at San Fran
cisco next June. We shall see what
we will see, in a little less than
i two months from this writing.” ,
There are nearly. 300,000 Indians
I in the United Spates, 130,000 in the
I British possessions, 1,500,000 in Cen-
■ tral America and 4.000,000 in Mexico.
; Most of the sands found on beaches
i and other places are the ruins of
! rocks which have come apart, usually
I bv the action of water.

AUNT JULIA'S
LETTER BOX
Dear Children: I am writing this letter to you on Memorial
day and want to talk to you about the splendid men of our country,
in whose memory this day is set aside.
It is a day when ail of us should think of what patriotism really
means, and we should set ourselves the task of being line men and
women, for to be GOOD CITIZENS is to be the highest and best
memorial to those brave souls who since our country began gave
their lives that we may live in safety. Narrowness, intolerance and
lack of faith are the worst stumbling blocks. Do not, because any
one person sets forth an opinion, against another person or their con
viction, accept that until you have looked well into the matter for
yourself. Above all things, BE JUST. Hold the honor of your
country always before you; do not sacrifice that honor, no matter wjiat
the personal gain may be.
This letter is, of course, to the older children, but I hope that
some of it may get a bit of away to you wee ones. Our country is,
of course, for little and big, and’the sooner we learn to honor it the
greater our own honor becomes. Lovingly,
AUNT JULIA.
Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: A Kansas
cousin is coining for a clint. No doubt, soiae 1
of the girls und boys remember a link- ,
biue-eyed girl who wrote to the letter box .
about two years ago. Since that time I ■
have received so many nice letters, am! '
have made many friendshpis through the i
letter box. My, Oh! we ate having dry
windy weather here at present. The March i
winds are sweeping the country today, the j
atmosphere is so filled with dust that you ;
can’t see the suu, or three blocks alien.! ■
of you. The wheat erop here is ruined and '
in many parts of tlie stale much property [
has been destroyed by the strong winds, i
No doubt most of you cousins are plan
ning your flower and vegt-lalde gardens
already. I envy those who are going to
make gardens this summer, for I love to
work with plants and seeds, and it is so
much fun to wateli them grow. I think ■
I will take up a lino of work that will (
take most of my time daripg vacation. I
How many of the cousins that are going i
to school will be glad when vacation cuties'; j
Hight here is one that won't, for this is my !
!jist year, ami I hate to think that my ,
school days will soon be over. If any of
the cousins wisli to write to me, your cards
and letters will be recognized. (Mr. C. E. J
Averett, of Swainsboro. Gu.: I have written |
to .vou but my letters have ben returned
marked. “Unclaimed.” Hafe I addressed
your letters wrong?) With best wishes for
the coming season, your niece and cousin,

ins and they were appreciated. Wonder
what you cousins are doing to amuse your

Dear Auntie and Cousins; May I come in
for a chat? It has been quite a while since
I had the pleasure of making you all a
visit. The letter box has surely grown since
I last visited. How many of you have
stopped to think how much good lias been
done through “Aunt Julia’s letter’ box?”
Auntie, we have the happiest season of
tlie year now. Tlie birds and flowers are
with us again and I am surely glad. How
many of the cousins have planted window
.boxes and flower beds and borders? Mother
and I have planted out a few plants and
seed, too, but not as many as we are going
to plant. Aufttie, what db you think about
the star Mars being inhabited? The Bible
only tells us the stars are to light up the
heavens. Hope I haven’t made my visit too
long, and that I may come again.
Lovingly, RUTH RITCHIE.

COMMUNITY DRIER SAVES
HOUSE WIFE MUCH WORK
Fruit and vegetables wait for no
man when they reach their prime ana
this time is usually just when the
farmer’s wife is busiest and the dayp
are hottest. Nowadays, help, is al
most impossible to obtain in the
counfry, yet the* family’s supply of
fruit and vegetables for winter must
be saved when they are in season
In many neighborhoods the communi
ty drier for preserving surplus fruits
and vegetables has proved a godsend
to the women living near it.
The time to build a drying plant is
in the spring before the rush of sum
mer’s work sets,in. If a number of
farmers club together to erect such
a drier the expense to each family
is small. Where only a few families
wish to use a co-operative plant a
■ mall but satisfactory drier may ’ b
built by the following directions,
which are recommended by the Unite.;
States department of agriculture:
The thermos or'-fireless cooker prin
ciple is used in this drier; that is,
a space of three or four inches is
allowed between the walls of the
house, to be filled with sawdust. This
holds the heat and relieves the neces
sity of a constant watch over the fire.
The furnace should be placed at the
opposite end from the door and a
tovepipe run from furnace end to
the door end and back with sufficient
•>'».-ration to cause good draft. A drier
>f this size and type should, with
'.rood management, drv from four to
•lx bushels a day, and should pay so-
.-elf in one season. Wet weather
•as no effect on this type of drier.
The Er.i’dir.g' Plan of House
The house is six by twelve feet,
"lie uprights in front are six feet
■et -eight inches. The uprights m
he back are six feet two inches to
ive the roof six inches fall for wa
rshed. Doors are fastened to t*‘.o
by-four-inch uprights in front. Doors
are two feet eight inches by six feet
eight inches. The furnace is fifteen
by fifteen inches by four feet, cov-
teacher, too, Dixie is a small place, sit

ered with two sheets (24-gauge)
black sheet iron tvyo inches apart—
air space to /prevent fire. The rad’.a
tion is secured by ordinary stovepipe
attached to furnace.
The house is heated after the plan
of a tobacco barn —a small furnace
of rock or brick is built at one end
and a stovepipe carries the radiation
to the opposite end of the house and
back, with an elevation of two feet
above the furnace. This stovepipe
may extend outside of the house a
sufficient space to escape the eaves
and an elbow and three or four joints
may act as a chimney, or if a chim
ney is preferred, it may he built at a
cost of $4 oi' $5 additional.
Plan of Trays
There are three lattice partitions
in the house, making four sections 32
inches wide for drying trays; 12
inches above the sill place across a
p/ece 2 by 4 inches on which the cen
ter uprights 2 by 4 inches and the
back upright 2 by 4 inches rest. (I’ut
upright pieces the 2-inch way.) The
tray bearers, 1 by S-inch strips, arc
fastened to the uprights. The space
between the tray bearers is filled
with 2-inch strips to act as guides
for the trays and to force the draft
to circulate between the trays. 1*
these places are left open it will act
as a flue and carry off the heat. Th'*
sides of the trays are of 3-4 by 3
inch lumber, making the tray 3 inch
es deep. The bottom of the tray
made of lattice strips 3-8 by 1 1-4
inches, with 1 inch space between th
strips running lengthwise. The tray,
have a center partition to support the
bottom laths and cheesecloth is used
to cover the laths. There are 8 inch
from the top of one tray to the to;.-
of the next. The trays move on the
bearers like a bureau drawer.
A small opening must be left ar
top of house just above doors-*—an
outlet for steam. A 3-inch opening
at front foundation must be planned
! to let in cool air to keep the fruit
l from sweating.
MARY MEREDITH’S ADVICEI
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME
Dear Madam: I am coming 1 to you H
for advice. I am 20 summers old. ’ ’
Four years ago I was deeply m: i
love with a boy a few months young
er than I. However, he always :
seemed older. We went together one >
year. Then he went away, as he
is a half orphan, to work. We cor- :
responded about six months, then
stopped. Both of us began going with
others. Since then I have been go
ing with another boy e.oout my •
age. I thought I loved him and '
only him and really thoug-it I might
marry him some day, but when he j
mentioned it I always, v.ouil put it i
off. He was very jealous nearted,
high-tempered and didn’t want me
to enjoy myself with anyone else
except him. I saw him sometimes
once a month but heard from him
oftener. The boy away from home
carrie home on a visit last fall. Het
remembered me and called me up
after he went back. He sent ir.c a ;
nice Christmas gift. He has been I
I home again. This time he came to
see me three times. He .vis kind :
and thoughtful as he used to be.
Now I love him dearly and be
seems to care as much for me. I ,
know I love him better than I ever
loved anybody. We never have had
a cross word.
The second boy I spoke of quar
rels with me every time I see him. >
I get tired of it. What would you
advise me to do? I don’t want to
love but one of them. Would you ■
give one of them up entirely’? If i
so which one? Please tell me what j
to do for I am troubled. 1
BROWN EYES.
Tiie boy who continually
quarrels with you seems to
show a very jealous disposi-
I tion. And one cannot be happy ;
where there is so much jealousy. i
i My advice is to let this boy go,
and try to plaoe your affection I
i on the young man who is so
thoughtful, and who’s love
seems to be deeper and finer.
There can never be any real
happiness or contentment when
one is constantly quarreling and
nagging the other. The sweet
est and deepest love in the world
is based on unselfishness and un- j
derstanding and confidence —
without those one can scarce
ly have real happiness.
Dear Mrs. Mary Meredith: —I am
coming to you for advice. After the
death of my mother, all girls seemed ;
to love me more tljan they did boys :
and finally I was loving them the!
same way. Do you think I will love '
boys as I do girls? I like boys bet
ter this year than I did last year.
Do you think it is a good sign I will
love one soon? Is there any harm ;
in a girl loving two boys at the same [
time? What is the latest fashion |
for arranging the hair? I am eight- '
een years old. Do you ’think any i
secrets concerning love should be I
kept from me? Hoping to find these
answers next week. Yours truly,
DEW BABY.
Dew Baby:—l cannot tell you
anything about signs and omens, (
for I do not believe in them.
You are at the age when it is
dnly natural to have love affairs.
And there is no harm in loving
two boys at the same time, pro
vided you aren’t using deceit
with them. If you do, they will
find you out, and then first thing
you know the boys won’t trust
you. A man likes truth and
loyalty in a woman, above every
thing else. If I were you I
would rather have one nice
friend than half a dozen “make
believes.” It is a very wise
thing to have girls to like you,
it shows a sunny disposition. I
am sure you will marry after a
while. You have lots of time to
think about that.
The girls are wearing their
hair pompadoured high in the
back and on the sides for eve
ning wear. There is no set rule
or fashion for the hair this year,
I’ve observed that most ladies
and young girls dross their hair
the way it is most becoming.
We are two girls coming to you
for advice.
I, the seventeen-year-old, am near- !
ly 5 feet and 6 inches tall; weight I
about 120 pounds. Do 1 weigh enough j
for my height? Am I old enough |
to have callers? If so, how long ;
should they stay? When a boy [
writes you a letter and* says I want ■
to come to see you if it will be con
venient with you, what should I
write and tell him? Is it any harm
to go with your school teacher?
There is one boy who seems to think
a lots of me, but will not come to
my home. He wilt call me up over
the telephone, and talk to me and will
try to be everywhere he thinks I’m
going to be. Do you think he Jcares
anything for me? And what fflkikes

him do that way? When I write a
boy a card to give him an invitation
to attend a party or something and
he doesn’t come, nor answers, how
should I feel towards him? How
should I treat him while around him?
If he wants to come back to see
me should I let him? My brother
tells me that I haven’t got any turn
to have friends; says I have never
had a friend in my life, but every
body that knows me seems to love
me or at least they appear to seem
that way. What shoulA I tell him
to make him stop telling me rnat?
Os course I know it isn't trife, but
I don’t like to be talked to that
way. What is good for chapped
face and hands?
Os course you are old enough
to have callers. Your weight is
alright, too. A young man
ought to have sense enough to
leave in the evening after he has
spent two hours and a half at
a girl’s home. She shouldn’t
urge him to stay longer for the
reason that he will think more
of her.
When a man writes a letter
asking to call arid you have every
• reason to believe lie is a gen
tleman, write a note in reply
and invite him, if his presence
will be congenial to you.
Your brothers are just jollying
you along; don’t pay any atten
tion to them; you will display
good sense by ignoring them.
Hinds honey and almond
cream is the best I have tried for
chapped hands.
I wouldn’t say anything to a
man if he didn’t think well
enough of me to come and see
me after repeatedly calling me
up over the telephone. I think
he is trying to string you along
i so the next time he starts a con
j versation over ’phone tell him
you would prefer his not calling
you again.
I am asking you for your advice
as I am a widow so lonely in this
world by myself. Would it be better’
for me to marry or live alone? Am
forty-five years old, a little gray,
dark eyes, weigh 115 pounds, 5 feet
high. Can you tell me how I could
j attract a nice wealthy man for a
| husband? Please answer ,in The
. Journal. Thank you for your advice.
DARK EYES.
I If you are so lonely and feel
despondent, there is no reason
why you shouldn’t get married.
It depends largely how you feel
about it. I cannot tell you how
; to be attractive, you are old
enough to figure that out for
yourself. Wealthy men are scarce,
and it is pretty hard to capture
them, I’ve been told. But if you
have an idea in your head in
regard to any special one, the
only thing I can tell you to do
| just dress up and look your best
and make a business of your in-
I tentions, and trap him if you can.
I am coming to you for a bit oi
advice. I am engaged to a boy age
twenty. We will be twenty-one in
June. I am eighteen years old. Do
you think we are old enough to mar
ry? I have been with several other
boys. He is my choice.
Since we have been engaged lie
asked me to let him put his arm
around me, but I would not. Did I
do right?
But would it- be any harm if I let
him put his arm around me? Please
answer my questions through the
Journal. Please print as soon as you
can.
Yours trulv,
HAZEL EYES.
Hazel Eyes: If the young man
is your choice, and he Is worthy
of your love, I don’t see any real
reason for you not marrying him.
If you are satisfied to give up
your liberty, and forego the
pleasures of a single girl. Re
member. after you are married,
you will have to consult your
husband's wishes, even if you
haven’t promised to “obey him.”
Think it over, and if you are sat
isfied to do this, then marry. As
for any .making” before
marriage, tliat is entirely from
your point of view, I can only say
i this. Let your conscience be.your
j guide. However, the more re
t served you are, the more he will
respect and love you.
