of the judges of the Superior
Court. The honor is all the more
valued because it comes from one
who. in his own < areer, has so well
Illustrated the loftiest ideal# of a
noble profession, and who has on
frequent occasions publicly ex
pressed his high < onception of the
character and dignity of the ju
dicial office. J trust that It will ,
not be inappropriate for me to state I
to you as the alter ego of the peo
ple of the State the reasons Im
pelling me to give up the high ju
dicial position to which they have
so recently re-elected me without
opposition, for a term of six years.
Briefly, these are, less responslbili
itv. less work, more compensation,
and a closer association with mem
bers of the Atlanta bar. to whom
I am so great a debtor To a
judge with a conscience, the ulti
mate decision respecting a man’s
liberty. reputation ami property Is
attended with fearful anxiety. The
possibility of error is a constant
and harassing menace to peace and
contentment. I do not mean in any
degree to minimize the responsibil
ity of a judge of a trial court, for
in my opinion the office of judge
of the Superior <’nurt is in some
respects the most important In the
State If, however. the judge of
that court errs in his judgment, he
/■an confidently and happily rely
upon the Supreme Court or the
Court of Appeals to correct his er
ror Not so with the judge of a
court of last resort. His error Is
remediless
1 leave the Court of Appeals
w th reluctance ami sadness. I
have become attached to the work
of the Court, and 1 have enjoyed
and been greatly benefited by col
laboration with my able and consci
entious associates. In going on the
trial bench I shall endeavor ever to
bear In mind the characterization
of the “Ideal Judge” as given In
the old Visigothic Code. “He should
be energetic and clear of speech;
certain In opinion; ready In weigh
ing evidence, so that whatever pro
ceeds from the course of the law
may at once impress all hearers
that it Is characterized bv neither
doubt nor perplexity. The judge
should be quick of -perception; firm
of purpose; clear In judgment;
lenient in the infliction of penalties;
assiduous in the practice of mercy;
expeditious in the vindication of the
Innocent, clement in his treatment
of criminals; careful of the rights
of Htrangers, gentle toward his
countrymen. He should be no re
spector of persons, and should
avoid all appearance of partiality.”
Ail of us can, at least, emulate the
kindly attributes ei umerated.
Evon in this enlightened age I
doubt if anything of substance can
he added to what has been so well
formulated In this code of the bar
barians of the fourth century. If I
should attempt any addition It
would be that the judge In the trial
of ca.ses should never assume the
role of prosecutor, nor invade the
sacred precincts of the jury box,
and while enforcing the law, should
also protect and preserve the in
alienable right of the citizen to
personal liberty, personal security
and private property guaranteed
by the Constitution.
In conclusion 1 trust that I shall
not offend the ('anons of good taste
by stating that my judicial work as
judge of the Court cf Appeals has
found both helpful ind grateful
Inspiration.
With high personal regards.
Yours sincerely.

Mrs. Chapman Wins Prize.
In a corner, the dignified station of*
honor, stood a single bloom that *
gleamed like a great white moon of
wax. It bore the card of Mrs. E. M ;
Chapman, and was adjudged the;
nearest perfect of them all.
Mrs. Porter piloted many persons’

Saturdax The occasion was the an
nual exhibition of the Inman Park
Chrysanthemum Club, an organiza
tion made up of of that ex
clusive section who have put. their
hearta and their estheth natures into
the task of raising chrysanthemums.
There are 30 members who lend their
own plants, who are pledged to grow
them only out of doors, and who find
reward for a year’s labor in a single
perfect bloom, so sincere is their en
thusiasm
Club Eight Years Old.
The club was organized eight years
ago. and each year exhibitions are
held and prize awards are made for
the most beautiful and most nearly
perfect of the blooms produced. In
the ten class contests the prizes range
from $lO for first prize to $2 for third ;
prize. The capital prize of the exhi- i
bition is offered for the best fifteen
of not less than three varieties, a ■
costly vase and $7. The vase will go 1
to the competitor who wins it in ,
three annual exhibitions.
This vear the vase went to Mrs. !
A. Ij, Waldo, No. 176 Cleburne ave- I
nue. who was the most successful of
all the club members with her blooms
this year. Os the ten class contests,
she won six first prizes and two see- .
ond prizes. There were probably 50 ;
entries all told.
The results attained by Mrs Waldo
bespeak a heroic and devoted labor
for a year She has nursed each plant,
it is related, as if It were a child,
wrapping it carefully against the cold
jiveather. and ministering as watchful
ly when the sun was too hot. Her re
ward was hundreds of chrysanthe
mums of which must were several
nches more than a foot in circum
ference, and which were of every hue
