A BEAUTIFUL AUTUMN TRIP.
(By Old Hurrygraph.)
CAROLINA TERRACE, HENDER
ONVILLE, N. C , Oct. 7. When you
talk of travel so many people regard
it as something for a favored few, and
it means the spending of much money.
There 'is one class of travel that
crosses oceans and continents and is
expensive, but that is not the only
kind. A trip that is most beneficial
and really worth while is not necessa
rily a long one. The spirit of Amer
ica seeing and America enjoyment
counts much to the American.
There are thousands of women and
men who need only to pass from their
regular daily surroundings to environ
ments that are fresh, sweet and pure.
if onlv for a day or two. Dd this once
a year and life is refreshed and stored
with new energy and strength. This
does not carry with it the idea of dis
content: but you should gain new
views, a broader interest in America's
attractions, and the health-giving ad
vantages of your own country which
are beyond the range of your daily
vision and intercourse.

Inefficient Legislatures.
About the least representative and
most inefficient bit of governmental
machinery is the average state legis
lature. Federal officials and munici
pal affairs command a much higher
quality of brains in their administra
tion than is discoverable in average
legislatures. One legislature spends
time and money in passing laws that
the next legislature spends time and
money to repeal. Theso inefficient
statutes affect men and women who
compose the people of the state. Mere
boys in years and infants in expe
rience are frequently noticed in legis-
ative bodies, especially in those
states where the legislative term Is
short and the electorate not of a high
degree of literacy. When the ballot
shall come finally to women in the
south the personnel of many legisla
tive bodies will be raised.
:
Georgia Not Democratic.
What do yon think of a state which
violates a fundamental of democracy
no taxation without representation?"
Yet Georgia takes the taxes of women j
to support her state university and I
then denies women the benefit of an
education in the very institution the I
women help to support. Massachu-1
setts tried this same thing over a cen
tury ago when she. denied to girls the
risht to be educated in the public
high school. Massachusetts found
out her error. So will Georgia, but it
will take a longer time. She's over a
hundred years behind the times now.
Georgia women surely are patient, if
they have no university education.
Perhaps if more Georgia mothers were
e1nratert their sons would be able to t
read and not be obliged to vote by s i
means of pictures on the ballot.

ticket was redeemed by the Woman's
