Even the New York World, which ha* the strongest and ablest editorial page In the country, has made up its mind not to support President Wilson in all of hlB stands, possibly to convince Itself and its readers that Its opinions know no in lluence. The World wanted an ad journment of congress and a "rest" from legislation and expressed these views guile forcibly, but the presi dent. thinking differently, did not take the kindly advice offered. We think, with the president, that the proposed trust legislation should go through, If rest and adjustment are to be expected. Not until liusi m-ss knows what is coming is there any possibility of calm. Agitation and "acceleration" of public opinion Is going to be pursued ruthlessly until the trust legislation quest ion Is finally settled The longer it Is watted upon, the more certainly will this campaign of calamity howling go on and the more certainly will bust iu.ua depression continue. The World grants that "there Is something to he said" Tor Mr. Wilson’s plan is lo write this new legislation Into the statute hooks as soon as possible In order that all doubt aud uncertainty may he removed, and also grants that If the i resent crossfire of agi tation is to continue it becomes the lesser of two evils." ‘‘But," HHys the World, "the trouble with the president's theo ry Is that the doubt and uncer tainty are not removed when hastily drawn hills are passed by both houses of congress and sign ed by the executive. What do these bills mean" What It their relattou to specific acts and ape ciflc practices? All that has to be settled In the court of last resort. "Twenty years of litigation were necessary to a final Inter pretation of the Sherman law. How many years if litigation will he necessary ot the final Inter pretation of this new legislation? How long a time must elapse be tween the day the president signs the measure and the day the su preme court says the last word in regard to their application." In the first, place, why conclude that hastily drawn hills are going to be passed? This legislation has been long considered dud carefully discussed. It Is in the hands oT men who are well aware of their respon sibilities and are In the broad glare of public criticism. There Is every Influence at work for deliberation and care. So far ns twenty years of litiga tion over the Sherman anti trust law are concerned. It is a little surpris ing to find the World, which Is usual ly so unblinded to the weaknesses ot the fxnlted. to bo fishing out such an argument for calling "Kings Kx" on further reformation. In the first place, the courts are more conscious of criticism, more stricken of conscience and less sub jugated to the magnetic forces ot wealth than they have been for twenty years, but, even though, a r«v lapse should occur and twenty yearh should he agalu required for the of justice to penetrate judicial ltiterprelatlons—l* there anc argu ment here tor prolonging the time ere reforms he effected* If the courts are so likely to absorb time In i onstruing and reoonstrutng now aws, why not save time at the start and put the new laws up to the "ourte as soon as posslbU* As a matter of fact, if this con gress ad)num» without getting '.h* trust legislation settled it Is as like ly as not that it will not be settled for four or five year* and until It t» settled business is not going to cheer up.

There were heroes in those days," said Ned law ton. "There are Just as many heroes now." said his mother, with a smile, “only they are not recognized' as such by the majority of people ” "Oh. of course, I know that Admiral Dewey was a hero, and every body does; but I mean that there are not so many as In the days when there were so many wars and Imliuns to fight.

The man or woman Who overcomes a real temptation does a herole thing, and wins as great a battle as the man who goes to war with a regiment.” Ned sat quietly thinking for a few minutes, and then he asked: "If I had not gone swimming the other day when the boys teased tne to go, would that have been a victory?” "Yes,” replied Ills mother, "thnt would have been a victory over temp- tSB 4 \ ijf “Fred Smith scratched me.” talion and wrong doing, for ! hnd told you not to ko swimming without ask tnw me." "But yon do not set a title or med als for things like that," wild Ned, still not quite sure ho understood. “You get tho title of being an up right wan nnd the peace of your own conscience," his mother replied, •“and you have got to fight out the little things that go to make up tho big things in life first, then the rest will follow us a matter of course." Ned thought over what his mother had said, hut it soon went out of his mind as he heard the whistle of one of his playmates outside. Not long after this talk Ned was playing ball on a vacant lot with some of his friends. The lot was on a cor ner, and the wind was blowing so hard (list every one who came that way had a hard time getting past. An old lady with a basket filled with vegetables and other things from the market had her bonnet blown off her head, and when she set her basket upon the ground to get her ha* the basket toppled over and out rolled the Contents In hII directions. The poor old lady could not run. nnd away blew the bonnet out of her reach, her hair flying all over her head and into her eyes. "oh. look at old granny!" called out one of the boys. •"Why don’t you run nnd catch ,lt"" called another, as tho bonnet again escaped the old lady’s grasp. "Oh, look at the basket: It Is blow ing away, too," called; another, and then a ahout of glee went up as the old lady*a shawl blew over her head. Nod had been a silent spectator and his Impulse was to help the old lady, hut he feared the lours of Ids play mates and stood stlil. Suddenly his mother words came to him, "Dare to do right" Ned did not hesitate any longer He ran to the old lady and straightened her shawl, then he ran after the bonnet that has blown against a post The hoys did not say anything at first, but when New put the bonnet on '.tie old lady's bead and tied the stringy INDOOR SPORTS ,* ,* ,* By Tad they shouted, “Oh. look at grannie's little girl! Where are your curls, Ned die?" "You wait here,” he told her, leading her to a sheltered doorway of a near by house. Then he picked up her bas ket and gathered the scattered grocer ies and put them in the basket "doing home with grandma?" rail ed one of the boys. "Yes, Neddie, be a good little boy,” said another, “and carry the basket." "You shut up,” called Ned, "or I’ll punch you.” "Oh, little girls don't fight," called out Kred Smith, “you'll have to stay in and sew if you are naughty.” This last was too much for Ned He put the basket on the ground and ran into the lot, but the boys ran, too. "You wait till I catch you, Fred Smith." he called. “I'll show you whether T am a girl or not." Ned picked up the basket and went to where the old lady was waiting. “I will carry It home for you,” he said. When Ned returned home he looked for the hoys, but they were not In sight, but that afternoon he snw Fred Smith standing In front of a store, and he lost no time In confronting him. "You called me a girl for helping that old lady,” said Ned, “gnd I'm going to fight you. Now get ready.” Fred started to run, but some of the other boys seeing him at that mo ment, called out, “Coward!” and he had to fnre the anrgy Ned. What is the matter with your face?" asked Ned's mother at the supper table thnt night. "Fred Smith scratched me," replied Ned. hanging his head. "Scratched you!” repeated his moth er, "how in the world did that hap pen?" And so the story came cut. ‘T couldn't let them call me a girl,” ex plained Ned, when his mother eame to his room that night and sat on his bed talking over what had happened. "Hut you were a hero," replied his mother. "What did the words of those hoys matter?” "But mother, they did not think I was then; they do now, though; they know I am not afraid of Fred Smllh. 1 felt all right here.” ssld Ned. putting his hand over his heart, "when T was helping the old lady, hut not here,” and he touched his head, “until I had punched Fred Smith, and now I feel fine all over.” His mother kissed him goodnight and said: “You are my little hero for daring to do right and help the old lady, but I think the fighting was un called for.” "Mother never was a hoy or she would understand," thought Ned.

(By Virginia Vale). Once upon a time Farmer Brown hung a sign up in his cher ry orchard It roads: "tinomes help yourselves.” That may seem a very strange thing to do, but Farmer Brown Knew the little gnomes alt ho he had never seen any ot them. He knew tnem, because last year they had helped him pick his cherries when his son had been sick and he didn't have any money to hire one to pick them. The\ had come In the night and filled the boxes and baskets, then they had carried them Into the barn so they would not get wet. Farmer Brown knew It was getting ready to rain, and that THE AUGUSTA HERALD. AUGUSTA, GA. AFTER THE WEDDING AN ILLUSTRATED STORY OF THE WAY A HOME WAS MADE. 'I “Who is he?" asked Jennie. When Tom lost nls temper and had gone out slamming the front door af ter him. Jennie sat looking at the door in utter amazement. She had never seen Tom get angry before. She did not think he ever could, because he lmd always given In to her and had tried to gratify her every wish. That is, ns far as his limited pocket book would allow. As Jennie sat there wondering and about ready to cry, the two women acquaintances from upstairs stopped in to see her on their way down town. Jennie cheered up at once when they came in. And when they asked her if she didn't want to come along she answered, "I sure do." As she was getting dressed one of her friends asked where Tom wap “Oh, would make tho cherries soft and they would not keep. He had tried very hard to get them all picked but although he got up early a nd worked late he could not pick them all. The Gnomes knew he wanted to sell all thta he could, and that he hnd very little money, as It had been a had year for every thing. so they had helped him and the Farmer was very grate ful. This year everything had done much better and he had more money. He was determin ed the Gnomes should have a feast of cherries. So he hung up the sign ou the trees. Tho fat Gnomes had gone by in the morning and read the sign and came back to tell the others the good news, so thm night they i tanned they would have the feast. It was bright moon light and they swarmed over the trees picking and eating as fast as they could. How good thev were, those big juicy cherries and hew they ate When they had eaten all they wanted, they picked two large baskets to take home with them for they knew the Farmer would not care If they did. When they 'had picked all they wanted for themselves the generous Gnomes said: "1/et s pick all the cherries Tor Farmer Brown, you know it doesn't take us very long and it would take Farmer Brown a day or more." So they went to work with a he’s gone out,” answered Jennie. "You should worry then,” said the woman, “Hurry up and put on your hat.” On the way down town Jennie ask ed them where they were going and they told her to the theatre. “I can't afford it,” said Jennie. "Neither can we," said one of them, "but Its easy to get tickets when you know how.” After they arrived down town one of the women went to telephone. As she eame out of the booth she said. “It's all right; he's going to leave three tickets for us and we are to meet him after the show; he couldn't get away to come with us.” "Who Is HE?” asked Jennie. "Oh, a friend of mine,” the woman answered. "I’ll Introduce you after the show.”—H. C. To be continued. will and In a little while they had them all picked. When Farmer Brown woke the next morning and looked out at hiß cherry tree, not a cherry could he see. “Well," he said, "I didn't think the Gnomes would do that. I Wanted them to have what they could eat, but 1 didn't think they would be mean and take them oil.” He walked out to the orchard and there he saw the cherries all picked and covered with cool leaves Then he was sorry he had thought they had taken them for themselves.
