HOW DO YOU SAY IT?
By C. N. LURIE
Common Errors in English and
~How to Avoid Them
“HAVE WENT,” “HAVE SAW.”
¢‘l SHOULD have went to the
dance,” said the girl, “but my
- mother would not let me"” *1
have traveled in many lands, but 1
have saw nothing like this,” said the
uneducated traveler. After the aux
iliary verb “have,” in any of its forms,
it is proper to employ only the perfect
participle of the principal ve®;
therefore, the girl should have said,
“I should have gone to the dance,”
and the traveler should have said, “1
have seen nothing like this.”
“They have chose the wisest part”
is an Instance of this error cited by
Goold Brown, the famous grammarian,
The proper form of words to be em
ployed is, “They have chosen the wis
est part,”
In this connection, it may be said,
that this error is one of a large num
ber which would be avoided with ease,
were the, speaker or writer to exer
cise a little care In the choice of
words. But most of us speak or write
hastily.

CUTS OF ACWORTH
DUE TO COURTESY
OF ACWORTH POST
The Journal takes pleasure in
announcing the fact that much
of the success of the Acworth
section of The Journal in this
issue is due te the splendid co
operation on the part of the
Acworth Post. We are also in
debted to it for all the cuts
used in this section that per
tain to Acworth.
UNEXCELLED IN SITUATION,
. CLIMATE AND SOIL
In the situation, climate, soil, ete.,
Acworth has rch in resources and plea
sant in the making of beautiful and
happy homes. Its situation is in the
sxtreme north western part of Cobb
county, 12 miles from the county seat
Marietta, on the Dixie Highway, 34
miles north of Atlanta and 103 miles
South of Chattanooga. It has splen
did railroad service furnished by the
Louisville and Nashville Railroad,and
is also connnected by jitney service
with Marietta and Cartersville.
Lying on the high lands just north
of the hilly regions of the state and
to the South and in full view of the
Blue Ridge mountains, its climate has
that rare freedom from all the extre
mes of heat and cold that go to make
the most delightful of all eclimates.
The soil, too, is the fine clay soil, nei
ther too hilly and rocky, nor too low
and damp to permit of the finest pos
sible crops if only the proper labor
and effort are expended. The water
supply of the city is artesian while
for the surrounding territory springs
of the purest and coldest water is
obtained thhat never needs artificial
cooling by the use of ice.

PUBLICITY WORK.
ANY women are making a suc-
M cess in publicity work, and it is
a growing opportunity.
You do mot need to know how to
write vourself. What you require is
the ability to get things into print, to
know where to go for results, to han
dle the sort of material people are
glad to-hear and willing to pay for.
One way is to begin on speculation.
Get something that wants publicity,
and find your medium, and, if neees
sary, your collaborator. When you
get the publicity you take the result
té® the firm who wanted it and are
given the promised check. You may
have to divide this up, but it's a begin
ning.
“I began in a very small way,” I was
told by a young woman who has just
as much work as she can handle.
“Just went about doing little jobs.

“And there's no better fun on

“It is work full of variety, full of hu

THE RIGHT THING |

THE RIGHT TIME
By MARY MARSHALL DUFFEE
GIFTS FOR THE BRIDE
Never do a thing concerning the recti
tude of which we are in doubt.—Pliny
the Younger.
EMEMBER that wedding gifts
R are always sent addressed to the
bride-to-be even though you may
never have met her and you are a
friend only of the bridegroom-to-be. If
you receive invitations to the wedding
or know of it before it occurs then
the gift should always be sent hefore
the ceremony and the present ad
dressed in the bride’s maiden name, ;
Silver and other articles to be
marked with an initial should bear
the first letter of the bride’s maiden
name, usually. There are, however,
some young women who prefer to fol
low the continental European fashion
and have their silver, ete., marked
with thefr married initial. If you
know this to be the case have your
gift marked in this way.
If you do not know of the marriage
until after it has occurred the gift
should still be sent to the bride only,
but it should of course be addressed
to her married name.
A wedding gift may be something
personal for the bride or something
that is for both bride and groom as
an article of household decoration ot
furnishing. It should never be some
thing that is especially suitable for
the bridegroom, as for instance, a
smoking stand.
The understanding usually is that{
if you receive invitations simply to
the wedding ceremony at the church
no present is due, but that if you are
invited to the house to the wedding or‘
a wedding reception a present is in,
order. Now, it is never in reality bad
form not to send a wedding present if
you do not feel able or if you Qo.,qnqi_
think encugh about the persons from |
whom the invitation is received to wish
to do so. If you do not send a present,
however, simply through indifference,
then do not attend the wedding party,
but write timely regrets.
Even though you are not invited to¢
the house or in fact are not Invited to
the wedding at all, if the one married
is a dear friend you are quite right in
sending a present if you wish to do so,
In order not to give the bride some
thing that she would not care for it
is permissible to wmake inquiries cop
cerning her wishes on the subject. It
is better, perhaps, to make these
through a third person and not to
ask the bride personally, but rather a
sister or close friend.
It is customary for the bridegroom
to give the bride a present of some
gort of jewelry on the occasion of the
wedding, but this is by no means es
sential. The bride sometimes also
makes the bridegroom a present at
this time, but this is even less essen
tial. In Persia the bridegroom gives
the bride-to-be a present of two com
plete dresses, a ring and a mirror. In
our own country the bridegroom must
never make the bride a present of any
part of her trousseau and, though he
may give her jeweiry that she wears
on her wedding dress and her bouquet,
be must supply no other part of he:
bridal array..

SUNMAN HELPS WIND.
NE night the Wind and the Rain
O met in a field and such a quar
rel as they began at once. *“Get
out of my way,” said the Rain, “or 1
will drench you until you cannot
move,”
“Ha, ha,” laughed the Wind. *1
guess you do not know to whom you
are speaking. Why, I can drive you
before me and send you where I
like,”
. This made_ the Rain. very angry and
down it came faster and heavier than
ever to show how powerful it could
be, but the Wind only blew harder
and drove the Rain against the trees

and bushes until they lay tiat upon
the ground and the Rain stood In lit
tle pools.
Then across the field the Wind
drove it until it struck the big farm
buildings and ran in great tears down
the sides, splashing upon the ground.
But though the Wind blew and
drove the Rain as it bragged it conld,
the Rain in little rivers and pools
called out that it would show its pow
er in a short time by making floods
which would rise high and cover the
land.
It was then that the Wind began
to think it must end the quarrel and
in some way that would stop the Rain,
for though it kncw the Rain could
never overpower it, the Rain did not,
and in trying to show its strength it
would do great harm.
And then it was, too, that the Wind
discovered that it could not do this
alone, in spite of its bragging and
being able to drive the Rain before it,
As soon as the Wind stopped blow
ing and began to think, the Rain came
down faster and faster and the pools
into little ponds, for now it was
sure it had overpowered the Wind and
was master of everything,
' But this was not true, for over the
tree tops and over the hills and moun
tains went the Wind, running swiftly
toward the east, for there it knew
was Mr. Sunman, and he could always
make everything right,
“Oh, Mr. Sunman,” called the Wind,
“wake up quickly and get up. There
is something terrible happening,” and
then it told Mr, Sunman all sbout lit,
taking its part of the blame,
It was very hard for Mr. Sunman to
get up that morning for the Rain had
thrown thick blankets of clouds over
him while he slept. but with the help
of the Wind he at last threw them off
and up he got and away they ran,
Up higher and higher they went,l
and in a short time away went the
Rain and even the ponds and little
rivers aml poals were soon taken care
of, and All ihat remained of the dread
ful quarre! were the tears of rain
dropping from the leaves,
The Wind earefully ran among the
trees and heiped Mr, Sunman dry"
them, and by and by all was well in
the Jand, and row the Wind always
goes over the hil! and mountain tops
early in the worning to awaken Mr.
Sunmar: and sometimes if you listen
you can hear the sound of Its heavy
breathing as it runs, I
