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, MISS GRACE KIMMINS. Haddam, Kans. Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: It has been some time since I wrote to the letter box, and I thought I would come again and see if I could hapuen to escape tlie wastebasket, as I did before. Hope so.

Our school Will be out about tlie 20th of May and I will be sorry of it. Cousins, don’t you think it is niee of Aunt Julia to adopt tiie French lassie?

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. Thomasville, Ga.

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 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 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?

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. Real Freak of a Chicken j Mrs. S. C. Thomas, of Cadis, S.
