state tn sanitary districts, appointing

ANY POMOLOGISTS IN
THE HOUSE? HERE IS
A GOOD JOB FOR ONE
Uncle Sam wants a pomologist and
is willing to pay from SI,BOO to $2,500
per year for a good one. This an
nouncement came in the form of the
usual orders for civil service examina
tions.
The clerks in the local office thought
an expedition to Okefenokee swamp
would be necessary, as some one looked
up the word in Webster’s and found
that in simple English a "pomologist”
is merely a culturer of fruit, and that
the word came from the old Latin word
“pomum,” meaning an apple. • Then
they announced that they would hold
the examination on August 24.
On August 21 and 22 an examination
will be given applicants for the posi
tion of physical geologist, which pays
$1,500 per year.

“Whereas, when the young people

result is prejudicial to agriculture, we
hereby prohibit dancing within the

You Can’t Serve Two
Bosses At the Same Time.
Willard Patterson, of the Forsyth thea
ter, read once upon a time, in the Bible,
or somewhere, that no man can serve two
masters at one and the same time and
get away with ft satisfactorily.
He never knew exactly what that meant,
however, until recently, when he went to
Chattanooga to spend a few days’ vaca
tion.
Os course, a man who selects Chatta
nooga for a vacation lays himself liable
to be suspected of not knowing much
worth while about anything, but—well,
anyway, that’s where Patterson w r ent to
while away a few idle hours, and while
“whiling and idling," he met Jake Wells,
who Is Patterson’s boss in the show busi
ness.
Jake says: "Howdy, Patterson, and
how’s the folks back home, and come
along, you are Just the man I have been
looking for.”
So Patterson goes along, and Jake Wells
says: “So long as you are in town, Pat,
you might as well have a good time, so
T will put you to cleaning up my two
theaters in this blooming burg, for that’s
as much having a good time in Chatta
nooga as anything else."
And Pat. works on those blamed thea
ters from 6 a. m. to 11:30 p. m., after
which, having nothing to do until tomor
row, he spends the intervening time won
dering why he ever was born into this
world, and what’s the use of anything,
and dern the man who invented vaca
tions, especially in Chattanooga—and then
it s time to go to work on the cleaning
Job again.
So, by and by, Pat gets away from
these theaters and comes back to Atlanta,
and goes up to Hugh Cardoza, his other
boss, and says to him:
“Hugh, where is my money for last
week?"
And Hugh gives Pat the glassy stare,
and says to him, in tones flapped and
distant:
“Go to, base valet, you ain’t got no
salary, for you was off on your old va
cation last week, and besides I have
docked you two days that you ought to
have been here and wasn't, and if you
get gay about ft, I will fine you on top
of that!”
And. then, Pat gets mad for fair, and
he goes off in a remote corner and cusses
Chattanooga and vacations, and the iron
heel of capital pressing down upon the
neck of honest toil, and Tom Watson, and
everything and everybody that Just nat
urally seemed to be easy marks for cuss
ers, t and wonders if that thing he read in
the Bible once upon a time, about it be
ing impossible to serve two masters at
one and the same time, isn't a true story
after all.
.Since Pat got back from Chattanooga
and has had a chance to think things over
he has concluded that there Isn’t any use
in anything much in this cruel and sordid
world - particularly for a pour man!
PRESS APPROVES
TIPPIMTH
Politicians Can Not See How
Alexander Can Make Much
of Prohibition Issue.
If the comment of the state press re
flects the opinion of the people of
Georgia, the governor’s veto of the Tip
pins bill is approved generally, and
the house’s action in sustaining the ex
ecutive will be upheld.
It is an undisputed fact that the fight
for the passage of the Tippins bill was
not approved heartily by many prohi
bition leaders in Georgia, and that it
actually was opposed by some.
Seaborn Wright, of Floyd, the father
of the present prohibition law, ami as
ardent a prohibitionist as can be found
anywhere, is known to have been doubt
ful of the wisdom of the Tippins bill
fight, and to have all but opposed it
openly.
Mr. Wright is said to have felt that
the present experiment Georgia is try
ing out is too promising to disturb—
that to endeavor to force the Tippins
act might result in spoiling the excel
lent prohibition progress he thinks the
state already has made. And this view
is known to have been shared by many
other prohibition enthusiasts.
In the matter of the governorship,
the veto of the Tippins bill seems like
ly to eut little figure. While it is con
sidered the direct cause of Representa
tive Hooper Alexander’s candidacy, the
impression is that he will not be able
to make much political capital of it.
Were the DeKalb county man to make,
or seek to make, the question of state
wide prohibition vs. local option an is
sue. he undoubtedly would make people
sit up and take notice. But he will
hardly be able to do that, because thou
sands of his prohibition friends, satis
fied with what they now have, would
resent bitterly such a campaign upon
his part, and because he himself would
hesitate to risk so large a stake in a
game in which the time limit must nes
essarily be so short.
That Mr. Alexander himself realizes
something of the situation is evidenced
in his statement that prohibition shall
be openly a collateral issue.

AMERICAN ACTRESS
TO WED GENERAL IN
PERSIAN INFANTRY
PARIS, Aug. 3.—When Ida and
Martha Phillips, daughters of Alonzo
J. Phillips, of Newark, N. J., came to
Paris to fulfill an engagement at one
of the open-air music halls in the
Champs Elysees they and their mother
who accompanied them, little thought
the trip to Paris would bring to one of
the girls a husband of a noble Persian
family. The American girls are billed
conspicuously, if not artistically, as
“The Two American Beauties.”
One of the nightly visitors to the Al
cazar was General Saltanes Afchar,
chief of Infantry, with the minister of
war in Persia. He became enamored
of Ida. and after 40 days of arduous
suit came to the mother to ask for her
hand. Mrs. Phillips at first refused to
countenance the alliance, but the pres
sure of the daughters and assurances
on every side of the high standing of
the general caused her to weaken and
finally consent.
