Had these women outlaws been dealt with as men out laws would have been dealt wlh, for the same offenses, these riots and de predation* would have died a natural death, but the English government confessed to an hysterical fear of the women outlaws, by altering the rules and regulations for them.

In accordance with Its custom for the past seventeen years, the Ameri can King Association reminds you that Sunday, June 14th, 1914, will be the 137th anniversary of the adoption of the stars and stripes, as the Flag of our country. (The day falling on Sunday, by general agreement the formal celbratlon will take place on Monday, June 15th, the day following the anniversary). The pbullq recog nition of Flay Pay as a National anni versary, each year becoming more nnd more general, would seem to make unnecessary any reminder to secure your co-operntion In securing the widest possible observance this year. The Governors In many of the states have In the past, by their proc tarnations, called publlo attention to the day and ordered the Flag to be displayed oti all State Buildings, and Invited their fellow citizens to cele brate the day, Mayors of Cities, for recognition of this anniversary, have in the past also orderd Flags to be displayed up on the municipal bulldlugs of their respective elites, and by formal proc lamation or otherwise.

During (he ten years 157 new high schools that employ one or more teachers full time have been established A large number of school* using part of th* time of one teacher for high school and grade work have been establish ed. but these are not included among the regular high schools until they can give a teacher to the high school department. Ten years ago there were no high school organizations In the state. This year the seventh annual high school conference and meet was held In each of the twelve congressional districts.

JEMIMA AND JACK (Pert II.) One day, at the end of the summer, many weeks after Jack and Jemima had left the attic, an old woman came up the stairs carrying Jemima and her chair and Jack and the tin kitch en, all In her apron. In one hand she carried the little red rocking chair, which she placed under the eaves. Then she laid Jack on the box, where he had been before, and placed Eho tin kitchen on the floor near the box. "Poor Jemima,’’ said the old wom an, aa she placed Jemima in her lit tle chair close beside Jack; "you don’t look as prim and neat as you did when my little girls played with you. There wouldn’t be much left to keep jHyBL' £*, vCHL- - _ / My* jysfc. "GOOD NIGHT, JACK.” In the attic If Martin and Frances played with you long.” Then the old woman went down the stairs and Jemima heard the door close. When everything was still that night and the moonlight was stream ing through the window, Jack heard a sound of crying. ‘■Jemima." he said, "don't cry; I love you just the same even if your hand Is broken. Will you marry me now ?" "Oh. Jack, how can anyone love me looking as I do now?" sobbed Jemima, “and my dress is torn and my bonnet that I have had ail these summers and winters looks like an old one. Oh! dear, that X should ever come to look like this!” "Don't cry, Jemima," pleaded Jack, "I love you just the same; say you will marry me." "I will If you still want me," said Jemima, faintly, "but It was awful the way those children used me. Why, Jack, they even put me beside a bear they called Teddy at the tea table," said Jemima, with a shudder. • "Things have changed since out day. Those little girls even took that bear in their arms and hugged him, too," said Jemima, drying her eyes. "There are no suitable matches for well-born dolls such as I am. Why, Jack, you are a better match than anyone, and I am so glad you came back with your head on. I thought they would kill you the way they made you Jump." Although this was rather a doubt ful compliment, Jack was so much in GEORGIA FACTS-No. 6 THE GEORGIA WATERMELON HAS A NATION-WIDE REPUTATION. AND UNUSUALLY FINE CANTALOUPES ARE ALSO GROWN Georgia watermelons have a nation-wide (pine. and their cultivation has a great present and a still more prosperous future. Over ten thou sand earloads are shipped to Eastern markets from Georgia annually. About 1.000 watermelons are raised to an acre, and this makes a car load. as there are 26.000 to 2(1.000 pounds In an average car shipment. Melons weighing below twenty pounds are generally not shipped, but used In local markets. Mark Twain, in writing of the Georgia watermelon, said: "The true Georgia watermelon is above, apart and not to be men tioned with the common things of earth. It is one of the world's chief luxuries, king by the grace of God over all the fruits of the earth. When one has tasted It. he knows what angels eat. It certainly was not of a Georgia watermelon that Eve partook; we know it because she re pented.'* By Ta'd love with Jemima that he did not take offense. "Yes, X am lucky to have my head,” he said, "but Jemima, I have one leg that will not move as It used to. Those children certainly did maTve me jump some, and although I thought I was as young as ever, I soon found my joints were not so easily worked as they were once. Do you think you can love me, Jemima, with this leg out of order?” ‘‘Oh! Jack, If you had neither legs nor arms I should love you," said Jemima. “All I ask is that we be left In peace the rest of our days in this attic. How could I ever have been so silly as to wish to leave you and to think I did not value love such as yours and wanted to be taken out of here to meet some ope else. “01.1 Jack, I was so afraid you would fall in love with one of those dolls the children brought with them. They could close their eyes when they went to sleep, too." “I did not look at those foolish crea tures but once," Jack assured her. "They had such silly looking faces; not a bit like yours, Jemima. I am glad the children did not break your face, as well as your hand.” "So am I,” said Jemima. “I can get along very nicely with a broken hand, because I have another that is perfectly good; but if anything had happened to my face I do not know what I should have done, because it is the only face I have, you know." "It is the best face in the world,” declared loyal Jack, "and I would not have your eyes close at any time, be cause . your eyes are so beautiful I want to see them all the time.” “Oh, Jack, you are a silly boy,” laughed Jemima, but her voice sound ed soft and sweet, so Jack knew she did not mean what she said. “I had to wait a long time, Jemima, to hear you say you would marry me,” said Jack; "but it was worth the sum mers and winters I waited, and now we can settle down to our old age in comfort, for those children will be too old to play with us when they visit their grandmother again." “I am sure you are right. Jack, dear." said Jemima, "you always are. Children do not play with dolls and toys now as they did in our young days. ' What do you want for break fast, Jack?" "Oh, don’t you bother about that,” said Jack, "I will get up and build the fire, and when the water is boil ing for the coffee I will call you, Je mima. I don’t care if I do not have any breakfast as long as you love me.” “I guess you would soon stop loving me," answered Jemima, "if I did not give you something to eat. Be sure to call me as soon as the water is boiling. Good night, Jack. Are you quite sure you love me with one of my hands broken?" •‘Yes, Jemima, I shall love you for ever and ever, always.
