DOES THE COLLEGE
GRADUATE “FIT”
The question has often been raised
throughout the United States,
“Does the college graduate “fit” in
to life.” However, attention is here
called to the fact that the question
is never raised concerning the gradu
ate of a technical college such as
the Georgia School of Technology.
On the contrary, it is a question of
how to fill the demand, for it is a |
fact that the demand is greater than
the supply of technically trained
young men, and it is to train our
Southern boys for exactly this oppor
. tunity that the Georgia School of
*FSa<hnology is striving.
The new erea of prosperity and de
velopment in the South which is so
widely and enthusiastically predict
ed by the leading men of the coun
try, is purely technical and textile,
and the richest rewards awaits the I
young men most capably trained to
“fit” into the demand. The Geor
gia School of Technology is better
prepared and equipped than ever be
fore in its history, offering advanc
ed courses in Mechanical, Textile,
Electrical and Civil Engineering, En
gineering Chemistry, Chemistry and 1
Architecture. The cost is very rea- (
sonable, placing within reach of any
ambitious young man knowledge
which enables him to take full ad
vantage of a period of unpredecent
ed opportunities. Write at once for

WHERE THE WORLD’S
REVENUES ARE PLACED
It is about two years since the
peace conference at the Hague,
which had been conducted amid the
derision of the military powers, end
ed with little but amiable futilties
to its credit. In the interval the pow
ers which sneered at disarment have
spent about two billion dollars in re
serving the peculiar sort of armed
‘ peach to which they are committed.
That is the price of two
French indemnities to Prus
sia—the cost of two great wars.

all the same.

dollars more will be spent in the
world. If one power adds fifty mil

must follow suit, and nearly half
a billion dollars is wasted in the
world.

The Story of a Ten Dollar Bill
A business man of Dawson sent
The News this narrative of what a
$lO bill did:
Mr. Brown keeps a boarding
house. Around the table sit his
wife, Mrs. Brown: the village mil
liner, Mrs. Andrews; Mr. Black,
the baker; Mr . Jordon, the car
penter; xur. Hanley, the seed and
lumber merchant.
Mr. Brown took $lO out of his
pocketbook and Landed it to Mrs.
Brown with the remark that, there
was $lO toward the S2O he prom
ised her. Mrs. Brown handed the
bill to Mrs. Andrews, the milliner,
saying, “That pays for my new
bonnet.” Mrs. Andrews in turn gave
it to Mr. Jordon, remarking that it
would pay for the carpenter work he
had done for her. Mr. Jordon handed
it to Mr. Hanley, requesting his re
ceipted bill for lumber. Mr. Hanley
gave it back to Mr. Brown, saying,
“This pays $lO on my board.” Mr.
Brown passed it to Mrs. Brown, say
ing he had now paid her the S2O he
had promised her. She in turn paid
it to Mr. Black to settle her pastry
and bread account. Mr. Black hand
ed it to Mr. Hanley, asking for the
amount of his flour bill. Mr. Han
ley again remarked that it settled
for that month’s board, whereupon
Mr. Brown put it in his pocket, re
marking that he hadn’t supposed a
greenback would go so far. But sup
pose Mrs. Brown had sent to a mail
order house for a new bonnet, then
that $lO would have gone out and nev
er come back. There is a moral to
this: Spend your money with home
merchants. —Dawson News.

THE LAST VOYAGE.
(Published by Request)
I thought I stood with an immense I
I concourse , on the shores of a dark
rolling river, that met the open sea
a short distance away to lose its wa
ters in the great ocean.
Tlie people were busy and active, |
rushing to and fro, singing, shouting,
moaning, cursing and struggling to :
: gether as they pushed and pulled
i each other about for the best posi
tions on the crowded bank next to
the river’s flow.
Nearby was the boat house where
they told me sailing craft were fasten
ed always to take their cargoes on
board.
The timbers were black with age :
and damp, and the multitude seemed
to shun the inside with its weath
er-stained walls and floor.
I asked the reason of the great
gathering, for there was no ship in
sight.
“It is always so,” said one. Those
people have a voyage to take and
they must come here to embark.
They must come.
This line of boats is strange, sin
gular. They never fail to come in
dock some time, but no man knows
the schedule time nor does this
crowd know, whether they will sail
by night or day, they only know[
they must go on board when their
“own bell rings.”
I wondered at the indifference of:
the multitude, for there seemed to
be no preparation for an ocean jour
ney. Some were even building
houses on the sand, painting the out
sides and gilding the domes, as if
they were to live here and enjoy
a lifetime of pleasure.
Even the aged and helpless were
intent on their own gratifications of
appetite and amusement. Men and
women were playing games to divert,
their minds, while the giddy pleas
ure seekers danced, shouted and
drank to debauchery and forgetful
ness.
A middle-aged couple stood near
me. The man said: “I hear the bell
Mary. I must go. Come with me.
I cannot bear to leave you! We
must go together. I can’t leave you.’
The woman replied: “This wind
is chill. I must have a warm cloak,
and my money is in my trunk. Let
me go after them.” and she went
away.
Just then I saw a ship coming to-I
ward us. It had no banners float
ing, nor music playing as it drew
nearer and nearer to the great,
gloomy boat house.
I saw the ship’s crew bring out
great rolls of cordage and make 1
ready to fling the line to the boat
house sailors that waited.
I heard the gang plank roll across
the lower deck, but when the vessel
slowed up and turned her side to
the wharf the gang-plank appeared
to be a hearse with black nodding:
plumes of crape streamers instead
of decoration and gilded banners.
Then I saw a strange sight. The
sick in the boat house were picked
out carefully, leaving some who had
been bedridden for years, and taking
others who came in but yesterday
and some today.
Mothers carried infants to the
gangway, left them and returned to
the shore. The lilly-whitemaiden and
the veteran soldier took step togeth
er. The strong man cried out in
agony: “Why must Igo and leave
my helpless family?” Nevertheless
his bell had rung, and his place was
ready for him and he went.
I saw children cling to a fond
mother’s neck, screaming in their
grief at the sore parting but the moth
er went on board without delay.
A terrific splashing suddenly at
tracted me. The black waters were
in commotion. t"
“Those people sometimes get des
perate,” said my informant, “and
take their own lives, rather than wait
for the ship’s bell and regular depart
ure. Hilly people. They only fall
into tho net below the water lino,
and are carried like driftwood, to
be beached on the other shore.”
As I turned from the wild faces of
the suicides I saw a mother in Is
rael as she was gently carried by
her family down to the hearse.
Calm and patient, she said: “I’ve
waited long for this release from pain
God has been merciful to give me lov
ing friends, and I go to the mansion
prepared for me where I will wait you.
coming.” These children sung, at
her request, “Some Sweet Day," j
and the ship's crew took off their
hats in reverence for this saintly
farewell.
One cried: “The last enemy is
death.” Another said: ‘“Can death
be an enemy which restores life,
health, happiness and friends'”
As I watched a great number hur
ried across in a body. "What means
this haste?" I inquired.
‘“A railroad wreck and an ocean
steamer has gone down at sea.' said
a listener.
Then we saw a violent commotion
i with pistol shots and blood, aye to
the water’s edge.
“A mob and madness,” remarked
a sailor who pushed wide open the
; entrance way, that the victims
might be crowded on board.
I turned aside, sick at heart. The
crowd that danced, that, gambled
and frolicked on the shore was still
reveling and carousing. They were
in plain view of these partings and
' ghastly violence, but they laughed
and made merry still.
I touched one’s arm as I heard the
warning bell from the ship, and he
[said: “Be ye also ready, for ye
know not the hour," but I was thrust
aside by another with these words:
“Why not eat and bo merry, for to-
I morrow we die?”
The great ship begun to move,
j its huge black hull glistened in the
i setting sun. Tho decks were crowd
ed and the bell ceased to toll.
As the leviathan floated from its
moorings and pushed out into deep
water, I saw the captain on deck for
the first time.
In a voice clear and sweet, these
came ringing across the waves
“I am the ressurrection and the
! life, he that believeth on Me shall
not perish.”
I As the rays of a morning sun dart
:ed across my pillow I knew I had
dreamed but nevertheless the dream
was a reality to my mental con
sciousness.

Tlie lot of tho average farm hand
is stated by many to be a hard one.
How does it compare with Consul
Martin's description of the mine la
borer in the larger mines of Mexico.
The living conditions of the workers,
Mr. Martin states, are extremely
humble. The average man and his
family live in a one-room shack, mud
house, stone hut, or dugout, among
some bank. Their food consistes of
dried meat, fried flour cakes, beans
and rank coffee. Stoves are found
only in the better homes, the labor
■ er’s meal being cooked over a little
fire between stones. At meal times
the family gather around the fire,
; and sleep on blankets on the floor.
This is the living condition in every
[camp; the high-priced laborers alone
have ordinary meals and sleeping
cots. The man who has a family, and
in most camps only men with fami
i lies are desired, has the habit of con-
I suming his wages the day after he
j earns them. The company runs a stor
only at which he can get provisions
on credit, and to this store the ac
count book is brought and his daily
necessities charged against his wages
Every operator has absolute control
of the sale of all merchandise on his
ground or within his concession; he
keeps the store, he buys at wholesale

at a profit of 100 per cent.

“I cracked a lawyer's bouse the
other night,” said the first burglar
disgustedly, “and tho lawyer was
there with a gun all ready for me.
He advised me ter git out.”
“You got off easy," replied the oth
er.
"Not much 1 didn't. He charged
tne $25 for the advise.”—Philadelphia

One thing a man can never under

Be good tempered. It pays in
every way; it pays, if you are an
employee; it is profitable, in every
walk of life. And this is taking the
most selfish view. You owe it to oth
ers to be good-tempered; you owe it
to your own manhood, to your own
self respect, in making others com
fortable you are making things
agreeable for yourself; you are gain-,
ing and keeping good will, which may
be of value and help to you hereaf

of popularity and good report which
may be used to advantage, prehaps
at a critical time. Good temper is a
great factor in success.
