Some Perceive Such Step in At tempt to Move Experiment Station From Griffin, BY JAMES B. NEVIN. Some see in the proposed closing of the poultry department at the Experiment Station a step in the di rection of removing the entire Agri cultural Experiment Station from Griffin to Athens. There is considerable complaint manifested that the poultry depart ment at the Experiment Station should be closed. It is not a highh spectacular department of the State to be sure, but* it has been most helpful and beneficial to a large num ber of people. And these people fee! aggrieved that it should have been set aside for slaughter, when there are other things that might be spar ed, and with less loss to the State. The point that is interesting in a statewide way. however, is whether the Agricultural Station shall be moved from Griffin, where it was es tablished in good faitli several years ago, upon conditions cheerfully com plied with by Grifiin. The suspicion that there already is a quiet movement on to take the station away from Griffin and locate it at Athens is one that will not down in Georgia—and if the movement is on, it is foolish to suppose that it may be carried through without a mighty protest. Griffin is not going to see the Ex periment Station moved to Athens, if vehement and indignant opposition can prevent it. And in this situa tion. it may be accepted as a sure thing right now. a large and influen tial section of the incoming Legisla ture will sympathize with Griflin. One can hear it talked in the hotel lob bies around Atlanta. Coupled with it. moreover. one hears much more or less unpleasant talk of too much politics, of one sort end another, along with the general comment. The disposition is to think that the Experiment Station is i thing that should be kept free ot it) suspicion of politics—and the de velopment of the removal question likely will bring about the kicking off of more than one lid in the next General Assembly. At least, that is the line of talk one hears from the lips of not a few statesmen, who pass through the capital nowadays. The Georgia Prison Commission, after having occupied for years about the dingiest quarters in the State capital, is about to move into about the airiest and neatest. Col. Pierce Latimer, Keeper of Pub- lit Buildings, has been hard at work with painters, plasterers, and decora tors-, for mdny days on these rooms, and he has worked, a wonderful transformation in them. From being the most uninviting he has made them all that an official could ask. Under Mr. Latimer's direction the capital has been redecorated and otherwise improved handsomely with in the last few months. Who is to be speaker pro tern of the next House of Representatives in ^ Georgia? Thus far, there seem to be no announced candidates for this gener ally much desired plum. and the meeting of the Legislature is only some six weeks away. Adams, of Kail, has been mention ed for this honor. has been Che ney. of Cobb, and yet neither has made any effort to land the place. Both are able men. and either would make a fine presiding officer pro tern. John M. Slaton will be inaugurat ed Governor, probably on June 30. The Legislature assembles on June 15. The' ceremonies incident to the in auguration will be simple, and will be conducted in the hall Of the House of Representatives. Governor Slaton merely will be given the oath of office, receive the great seal of Slate from the hands of the retir ing Governor, accept the congratu lations and best wishes of the Gen eral Assembly in .joint session, and then retire to the Executive Office to begin his term of service. Not many years back, inaugura tions of the Governors used to be more or less gala, occasions. Gov ernor Atkinson was inaugurated with great military, display, and deliver ed an inaugural address quite after the Presidential style. 1 Governor Hoke Smith was the last Executive to mark his induction into office with much pomp. Since his first inauguration, however, the simpler method has prevailed. Now and then some rampant pa triot hankers for the old order of things—but there seems to be noth ing of the kind in sight now. An Irate reader, miffed at some thing he read recently in this column of uplift, writes the party responsi ble for the same that said party re minds the writer of “a combination of Tom Watson. Tom Hardwick, Hoke Smith, and James K. Varda nian.” Goshallhemlock! Hugh Dorsey.

By VIOLA RODGERS. XBIV YORK, May 7.—“All., the greatest thing a woman can do for herself and for the world is to be a mother.! No Joy. no glory is so great; nothing so productive of genuine hap piness an that sweet thing a mother can look upon for the first time— the little pink and white bundle held in t lie nurse’s arms—her babv!” It was the Bernhardt—the wonder ful Sarah Bernhardt—who spoke, and with all the abandon of words and gestures and expression that only tin; gifted woman can command. ’And think,” she continued, “how much greater is her happiness to ex perience with the same fresh sweet ness and hope and expectation fh»* coming of a grandchild and a great grandchild, as I have done. An, ii is too beautiful. The thing which shall keep me young arid give a glow to my life is the nope of becoming a great-great-grandmother. I shall live. 1 Mope, to have that joy.” Mme. Bernhardt will remain hero for three weeks and then go for a rest, until her London and Paris en gagements begin, to her home in Belle isle, France. Whether it is the beauty that is brought to her through her mother hood and great motherhood. Or through her art, Mme. Bernhardt cer tainly needs no press agent to pro claim her eternal youth. She is the youngest looking woman of seventy that perhaps the world has ever seen. Her skin is as hard and as firm as a woman's of twenty-five. She wears no glass**.- and her eyes are bright and alive. "People think T make lip. I sup pose. but look, you can $ee in this bright daylight there is nothing. It is simply that. I take t are of my self. Perhaps an actress keeps younger longer because of the gen tle massage that she is always giv ing her face jti the putting on and faking off of stage make-up "American women are so careless of their skins They motor and golf and play tennis and walk and ride without ever any thought of their complexions. Their skins get dry and wrinkled, and - it is such a shame, for no women have greater natural beauty and treat it with such care less* abandon as your own lovely women. They have everything a French woman possesses in the way of charm, but—they do not know so well how to retain it.” uZJ Stealing Loaf Sugar to Feed to Horses. "It would be interesting to know how many tons of loaf sugar are stolen each year from restaurants and hotels to be fed to horses.” said the manager of a lunch room yesterday. "We used to let customers help themselves from bowls each of which held several pounds, but we found that all cur coffee profit and more was stolen. Men would fill pockets and women handbags and give it lump by lump to horses in the street. Some women carry sugar from home to give it to horses, but more, steal it from hotels and restaurants." ♦ * * Here’s the Right Way to Send a Stamp. "Every day you learn something new” remarked a fr^an 'who. was busy opening letters. ”i get about fifty letters a week with a postage stamp stuck on the corner for a reply. There is only one man in America that krtows how to stick a stamp on a let ter." “What's his stunt?” demanded the friend. "Instead of sticking tlie stamp by a corner, so that I have to take daub of mucilage to make that corn er stay down, he sticks it by the mid dle. so that w'hen l use it again all the edges are gummed and the little spot in the centre does not matter." * * * He Might as Well Have Ordered It. Magistrate Freschi had a < be fore him of violation of the liquor tax law. A detective testified that he had entered the defendant’s place, ordered beer for four, paid $2.00 for the round and tipped, the waiter 25 cents. ■'Whose money paid for the drinks?" asked the < ourt. Yours or the city’8?’ "The city’s.' Then why didn't you order cham pagne?’ Magistrate Freschi said.” 600 Newsies Will Be Guests at Banquet S. V. D.

May 7.-—The Amer ican housewife wastes much energy in making bread, according to Miss Hannah Wessling, expert bread mak er for the Department of Agriculture. Bread doesn’t need much kneading, she declares. Let the yeast do your work. Her method is: Take twelve* ounces of flour for a one-pound loaf. Use one-fourtli ounce of sugar, one-fourth ounce of salt and ten ounces of tepid water. Mix the yeast, salt and flour, and then let them ferment for an hour instead of using them immediately after they "foarn." Warm the flour and mix with the ferment. Allow- the mass to stand one hour. Don’t handle it. It doesn't need much kneading. Mix it up and allow- it to stand another 45 minutes, when it is ready for the molds. The entire process should be con ducted in a room w'here the tempera ture is 80 to 86 degrees. Any warmer means sour bread arid any cooler sog gy bread. x JULIAN M. RAY.
