THE BUSY CHRISTMAS SHOPPERS.
Despite all the well-meant advice of almost every newspaper in the
country to do the Christmas shopping early It appears now that it was
largely disregarded by the multitude. Or it may be that the early shop
pers still find that, they have other shopping to do. At any rate, from
the appearance of Broad street one Is led to believe that everybody
Is out shopping. Certainly never before were greater crowds of shop
pers out than seem to be out now.
It’s an inspiring sight. The rain and clouds of the early days of
the week have disappeared. The glorious sunshine floods the north side
of the street, The air Is fresh and crisp, with just the degree of cool
ness to make active exercise agreeable. And the great crowd passes
la a ceaseless stream. Up and down the street they go, stopping in
stores here and there, all with smiling, happy faces, and all buying—
for a large proportion carry the evidence of this fact in bundles in
their arms.
And so it will continue, in increasing volume, until Friday night.
What It will ho by that time the Imagination can scarcely conceive. In
the stores now here Is at times a perfect Jam. It now takes four times
as long to buy something as it docs ordinarily, for even the increased
force of salesmen and salesladies employed In most stores cannot
properly wait on the customers. And as the short remaining ante-holi
day time passes this condition must still more strongly develop.
But let the good humor be preserved which has pervaded until
now. "Christmas comes but once a year.” Kind Providence has
blessed our section and our people . In a material way they are bet
ter fixed to provide a happy Christmas than they ever were, and every
body Is full of the Christmas spirit. There may be a crush of buyers,
but. eventually all will be served. Ho bear the inconvenience of the
crush and push with good humor, or as a novel experience which will
serve as something to laugh over in the future.
But all the same, If you have still some shopping to do, don’t
wait until the very last moment. The push may be so great that you
will be pushed out altogether.
FOR BETTER EDUCATION IN GEORGIA
The October number of the Bulletin of the University of Georgia is
entitled "A Handbook for the Secondary Schools of Georgia,” and is a
little booklet which should be of great Interest and would be read with
profit, not only by every educator In the state, but. by all parents with
children to educate, and by all persons interested in the cause of educa
tion. As Its name indicates, it is devoted to the subject of secondary
schools, the high school or Intermediate between the primary school
and the college, and the Important part it fills In the plan of educa
tion Is made clear In this presentation. •
The cause of education has made g-atifylng progress in our state
during the past few . ars, and In nothing is this assisted more than in
the proper grading of the different stages In the process of acquiring
au education. In other words It is by greater specialization that better
results are obtained. As Is said In this brochure, In summing up the
General Situation: "The people have about differentiated the high
school from the college or the common school. We find fewer colleges
being started and many colleges names being struck off. Fewer tcacners
are doing only high school work. Nearly everywhere there is a decided
ambition to build up a good, honest high school.
Continuing, It Is pointed out how the high schools are multiplying.
"The number of our four-year high schools,” we are informed, “has
doubled In the last few years while the number of three year schools
has probably Increased within the same time three-fold. While five years
ago the university could place but 38 schools on its accredited list,
It, now has 110 and will probably add 5 more this year. There are now
51 four year, or senior schools, 147 three-year, or middle schools ,and 199
two-year, or Junior schools. Some of the senior schools are possibly
not, doing full requirements In all work under Carnegie standards, and
some of the middle grade schools would fall in the junior grade by the
same standards. There were 17,109 pupils doing high school work in
the 39s schools Included above. From the accredited schools there were
1.568 graduates last .Itino, 41 por cent of whom were boys.”
In this Handbook every branch of the high school management
and work Is lucidly presented, the regulation governing the accrediting
of schools, the Carnegie foundation units, the studies of schedules and
curricula, suggestions and crltcisms on the teaching of high school sub
jects, n chapter on each branch of study and much other valuable and
helpful Information. And lastly there Is an acknowledgement by our
highest educational authorities of the helpfulness of the spirit, of co-oper
ntton that is manifested throughout the state In this work. In this mat
ter ‘‘the university desires to express its gratification at the cordial
co-operaion that has been given It In Its efforts to strengthen the sec
ondary schools, by school boards, tcachprs, college faculties and the
state department of education It has been a rare occurrence for a
school, whether private, denominational, or public, to refuse co-opera
tion. In this work the university knows no party or sectarian lines. It
Is working for the good of all and It welcomes the aid of all, for all
must shßre in Its benefits."
OUR EMBASSIES IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES.
The American Embassy Association Is an organization which has
for Its aim and object the purpose of bringing about the ownership by
the United States of Its embassy and legation quarters In foreign
capitals.
Who are the men who compose this association? Certainly they
are men who have felt the need of the tiling they advocate. The man
who remains at homo and does not visit foreign countries knows noth
ing about embassy quarters. The man who travels on business or as
an ordinary traveler knows very little more—sueh a traveler would have
no occasion to bother about his country's embassy. It Is the rich tour
ists. who travel with ostentlon. make a show of themselves and de
sire to attract as much attention as possible that haunt these embas
sies. It Is Hits class who want the embassy buildings owned by the
government, for well they know that then these buildings would be con
tinually enlarged and Improved, giving opportunity for better entertain
ment to snobbish visitors.
What would It cost If the government were to adopt, this plan?
Nobody could tell. Our country Is represented In foreign countries by
ten ambassadors, Ititrty envoys extraordinary and ministers plenipo
tentiary and two ministers resident, malng In all forty-two embassies.
To own ami maintain forty-two stteb establishments, which would re
quire enlargement and Improvement continually, would eventually run
Into figures that would stagger the tax payers, for it ts well nown how
sueh governmental Institutions grew from the smallest beginnings to
colossal dimensions.
If tbi' ownershtn of such property were necessary, nothing could be
said against the ownership plan. Necessary buildings for the transac
tion of permanent governmental business should be owned by the gov
ernment. whether this business be In a city at home or abroad; and
just as the government should own Its postoffice, customs and court
house buildings In our home cities, so It should own Its consular offices
ami other necessary office buildings In foreign cities. Our government
rents such buildings In Washington, New York and other home cities,
which Is wrong It rents Its consulate offices in foreign cities, which
is wrong In principle Hut as regards embassy buildings It should
neither rent nor own them. It should abolish these offices.
Ambassadors were necessary In the olden times, when kings were
absolute rulers and communications between different countries was a
matter of ila\s and often of weeks. Then the ambassador represented
his king, and was empowered to act for him on the spot in alt mat
ters. It is different now. All governments lyive constitutions and
are governed by ministries, and there are no monarchs with absolute
power. \!1 matters pertaining to inter-nation matters are acted on
by th» ministries of the respective countries. And all countries are in
telegraphic communication with each other, which has led to the direct
transaction of all business between them. The ambassador has become
unneees-ary. end t s In fact only a social functionary, a mere ornamental
representative of bis government, but of no practical use. lienee these
offices should be abolished.
To maintain theso useless offices Is a heavy cost. Our consular
and diplomatic service this year cost nearly $4,000,000, the larger part
of It for this branch of the service. ihe cost is Increasing rapidly
having been doubled within the past few years. For the go vein met to
own embassy buildings in all foreign countries would many times
double this cost.
Instead of ibis, the whole embassy system should be abolished, as
a relic of the dark ages which has now become entirely useless.

BETTER METHODS IN COTTON GROWING *
Cotton Yield, Like That of Corn, May be Greatly Increased
and Still There Will be no Overproduction.
A few days ago we commented on
the results of a number of experi
ments In growing corn under the di
rection of the department of agricul
ture. Yesterday’s Tlmes-Unlon con
tained an account of experiments In
cotton growing In Florida under di
rection of the government and from
seed furnished by the government.
Briefly stated, cotton cultivated In
this way yielded between two and
three times a much per acre as that
cultivated on neighboring lands.
Of course, the methods suggested by
tile department of agricutlure will not
he- adopted at once by all the grow
ers; but, year by year, the number
u«ing such methods will Increase until
ultimately all will use them or other
up-to-date methods of cotton grow
ing. When the farmers of the South
make the most they can out of their
crops, they will be able to produce
nearly twice as much as they now do
without an increase of acreage.
This would be most disastrous to
the farmers if it should take place at
once. A crop of from 21,000,000 to
27,000,000 bales would scarcely sell for
the cost of picking. It would certain
ly not pay the cost of cultivating; but,
as these methods will supplant the old
slowly, they will not result in a glut
of the market.
The world’s demand on the South
for cotton about doubles every tw'enty
years. It amounts to about 13,000,-
000 bales a year now. In twenty

Through the susurrant palm leaves the trade winds ever croon;
The skv knows naught of calendars, no clouds are ever seen.
And the vast, encircling ocean sparkles blue and white and green.
The happy, lolling natives of that drowsy, perfect clime
Pay no regard to seasons; they seem to doze with Time.
They have no days to celebrate, no crackers in July,
And New Year’s Day and Christmas go ail unnoticed by.
Now Bangaroo, the chieftain (who often would evince
Ability that would surpass full many a merchant prince).
Awoke the Bombilooloos with an order that no “but”
Must prevent a celebration In every single hut;
That Santa Claus was coming, and upon this Christmas Eve
A stocking must be handy for the gifts that he would leave.
The junior Bombilooloos, they cheered their kindly chief,
But the elders seemed to find it a cause for further grief.
For who could find a stocking upon that balmy isle,
Where the only garment ever worn was an expansive smile—
But Bangaroo had found a wreck with a cargo all of hose.
Which at fifty cocoanuts a pair he proceeded to dispose.
He made a handsome profit, since none dare fight his laws,
And thereupon decided he would be the Santa Claus,

SHE TOED HIM ALL
A good story !g going the rounds
about a drummer and a pretty wai
tress, says the Cleveland Leader.
Here is what happened, according to
the report:
The dapper little traveling man
glanced at the menu and then look
ed at the pretty waitress. ‘‘Nice day,
little one,” he began.
‘‘Yes, it is,” she answered, "and so
was yesterday, and my name is Ella,
and I know I’m a little peach, and
have pretty blue eyes, and I’ve been
here quite a while and like the place,
and I don’t think I’m too nice a girl
to be working In a hotel; if I did I'd
quit my job; and my wages are sat
isfactory; and I don't know if there
Is a show or dance in town tonight,
and If there is I shall not go with you,
and I’m from the country, and I’m a
respectable girl, and my brother Is
cook In this hotel, and he weighs 200
pounds, and last week he wiped up
this dining room floor with a fresh
SSO-a-monlh traveling man who tried
to make a date with me. Now,
what’ll you have?"
The dapper little traveling man
said he was not very hungry, and a
cup of coffee and some hot cakes
would do.

A SOUTH SEA SANTA CLAUS
v By Wex Jones
years the South will need to grow
about 26,000,000 bales to meet the de
mand as well as it is being met now.
There is nothing in sight to indicate
that the supply furnished by other
countries will more than keep pace
with the demand. The spinners of
the world by 1930 will want 26,000,-
000 bales of southern cotton, and will
be ready to pay a good price for it.
The South is not increasing in
population more than 50 per cent in
twenty years. The growth is more
In the cities and along industrial
lines than In the country and along
agricultural lines. Unless the popu
lation of the South Is largely in
creased by Immigration during the
next twenty years, the cotton acre
age will not be increased more than
one-fourth, and production will not
be more than 17,000,000 bales.
While we would regret to see a de
cline in the price of cotton, a ma
terial advance above the present level
would be disastrous. The world is
paying for cotton now nearly as much
as it can without materially decreas
ing consumption. If cotton should
go much higher a substitute for it
would be found, which would great
ly lessen the demand. The farmers
of the South are now getting about as
much for cotton as they can safely
ask, and the present price could stand
a gradual increase of production up
to the point where It would be twice
as great as now In twenty years.—
Jacksonville Tlmes-Unlon.
INF NEW JERUSALEM
The first memorial which strikes the
eyes of a traveler when he arrives at
Jerusalem, says a French visitor, who
has recently returned to Paris, Is the
new church of the Germans on Mt.
Zion. It is built on land given by Ab
dul Hamid to the German Emperor.
Its architecture and vast proportions
are admired by all who see the build
ing. The church will be served by
German Benedictines, and it is to be
consecrated next year, it is said, in
the presence of Prince Eitel, repre
senting the Kaiser. Afterward the
Prince will take part In the opening
of the sanatorium, also German, which
is nearby. At the other extremity cf
the town, near the Damascus gate,
German buildings are increasing. The
hospice and hostelry are finished. An
orphanage, with chapel, Is in contem
plation. This will be under the
charge of the Lazarlst3 of ColSgne,
whose funds have contributed mil
lions of marks for charitable purposes
In the holy land. In short, it is Ger
many which holds the supremacy in
Jerusalem and that supremacy Is not
hidden.—London Globe.

Hold the Money Also.
Cotton is now three times in price
what it used to be. But the farmer is
not three times as well off as he used
to be, especially those who buy sup
plies from the northwest. Flour, meal,
meat, lard and other such necessities
are about three times what they used
to be. The bulk of the cotton money
still leaves the country which grows
the staple.—Greenville News.
Some Turnips.
As a turnip grower, Mr. John Har

Lancaster county, probably is several
laps ahead of anybody in this part of
the state. Mr. Harris brought to this
market Saturday the third load he
had gathered from his patch this fall.
He found ready sale for the turnips
at a good price. One of the turnips
in the lot weighed six pounds and was
as large as a half-gallon measure. Mr.
Harris says it was only half grown.—
