A farmer up in Kansas is said to have lost a can of syrup while taking poisoned bran to the field to kill grasshoppers that are ruin ing the crops in that state this year. He had a full quart of whiskey which he mixed with the bran in place of the syrup. The farmer says, according to the Kansas City Times that a hopper would come alone, take a bite of bran, jump about four feet in the air, spit a stream of "to bacco juice," light down, take another bite of the bran and start out to lick the first hopper he met. In this way all the hoppers in the field were soon fighting each other. As soon as one hopper killed another he. sought a new opponent and in this way there was soon but one big hopper left. Soon a rooster came along and made a dive for this hopper, but the hopper instead of allowing himself to be eaten, jumped up and kicked the old rooster in the face spit "tobacco juice" in his eyes and chased him under the barn. Why I am Thankful I am Country Woman. I am thankful that 1 am a coun try woman, for blessings are mine that come not to the dweller in cities. I am thankful that from my windows as I work I can look not upon brick walls made by man, narrowing my vision and shutting out even the light from God's heavens. I am glad for the sight of His own outdoor world, for the broadening view beneath the shady trees across the green growing things to the sunny slopes beyond. . I am glad that all the things I see are alive, are full of promise and growing, made wonderful b y a power greater far than that of man. I am thankful for the hope to be gained from these young things, for the courage which is inspired by their maturity, for the sug gestion of the distant view. May I be kept by them from narrow NELSON, ness of mind, from discourage ment. May I gather from them the spirit of eternal youth, the satisfaction of having lived my part in this world of everlasting growth. More than all else am I thank' ful that 1 am a country woman for the sake of my children. I am thankful that they can first know the world the world as it is here surrounded by the green trees and plants anl peopled by the homely beasts. -1 am thank ful that my babies can learn with their first gleamings of intelli gence of God's power as revealed in the pushing up from the brown eartn or, tne tiny green grass blade and in the breaking of the shell by the baby chicks. I am 91 ad mat in ail tnings they can see the wonder of life. For their health's sake I am thankful for the boundless pure air, for the good food so fresh from the field or beast and for the chance for them to grow naturally, like the young plants and animals. It is good that they know the living world not from books, but from contact. I am thankful that shops and factories cannot take the health from my daughters and that the strength of my sons will not be wasted in office and mill. For these blessings, above all others, 1 am I daily thankful that I am a country , woman. Gertrude Houghton in the Coun try Gentleman.

' ' Sites are Chosen by Summer Colonists Work at Summer Home Begins Immediately. Plans for Club House Have Been Adopted Many Cottages will be Constructed. In the first drawing for lots conducted by the Home Colony company, whicli recently pur chased 700 acres of land between this city and Ilendersonville for a summer colony, 120 building sites were awarded to prominent business and professional men of St. Petersbury, Fla.,' who will build summer residences in Hen derson county, at Summer Home station. The lots were purchased by the Floridians, th drawing being conducted in order that the purchasers might select the loca tions for their homes in a manner suitable to all of the members of the colony development company The property which has bem se lected absorbs about mnty acres of the recently acquired tract of land, and it is , announced that work on several of the summer homes will be started within the very near future. v ' Information has been received here : from President Avery, of the colony company, to the effect that plans have been prepared and adopted for tho club house which will be one of the features of . the development scheme. The struc ture will be three stories in height and no expense will be spared to make the building modern in every particular. Work on the Club house will be started during the early part of Februaryand it is expected that it will be finished by the first of June, at which time it is believed that at least seventy five of the cottages will be ready for occupancy. President Avery writes that ninety homes will be occupied at Summer Home station by the middle of next spring. - The development scheme of the Summer Home company will be one of the most extensive ever carried out in this section of the state and the selection of buildipg sites and the adoption of plans for the clubhouse meaas that all plans have been completed for the be ginning of the work-ot the state's youngest town. Within the very near future the expanse of field and forests which comprise the company's holdings will begin to ake on an air of activity and it will be only a short, time , until a city will arise on the' vacant prop erty. . . l The beginning of building acti vities at Summer Home will mean the expenditure of a vast amount 0 r ' 0 of money in this section of the state and the employment of many laborers of all kinds. Masons, carpenters, plumbers, electricians and workmen of other classes will be in demand and the work will be pushed to completion. , As was announced some time ago, the Southern has authorized tho construction of a passenger station and" a freight shed at Sum- mer Home, and it is expected that work on these buildings, which are to built by the system, will be stin ted soon. The plans for the passenger station provide for an unusually unique building, which is to be in the form of a log cabin. While the structure will be modern its appearance will be that of a log cabin of the type which was popu lar in frontier days. r There is now a movement on foot in Georgia to erect a 1 monu ment to the memory of little Mary Phagan for whose murder Leo, M. Frrnks of Atlanta was convicted. " ' Most monuments are erected to the heroes of war who have shed the blood of their fellowmen but the monument to be erected to little Mary Phagan shall be a memorial of her struggle in de fense of honor. Those , who go down,' martyrs to principal, in the every day walks of life, in the great struggle with the tern pter, are as deserving of a place m our memory as tnose wno march to the music of 'war and die on fields of blood and battle. All honor to the little Atlanta heroine who gave up her life in defense of virtue and honor. Let the shaft to her memory tower high and may those who look up on it, in years yet to come, be inspired to loftier ideals and deeper devotion to 'honor and purity. , . AUTUMN is here in' all its strange beauty. The dying leav es take on a coloring that im presses those who appreciate the aesthetic, v Gold a n" dv yellow, brown and green and red, streaks of grey the autumnal colors run hot over the woods and fields. Nature seems to be dying. But it is only Vseeming--jt is really asleep. , The i trees and the plants are drowsy. They long for the winter's rest. Growth ceases, ine leaves nutter to tne earth-dead. But the tree lives. In the spring, the sap of " life will pulse again and: the green foliage will be nature's expres sion of verdant life-nature's re: surrection. . And so with the whole world- nature has two faces: work ; and repose, waking and sleeping, life and death-and anew life. High lander, Do It now. Subscribe for The News-Record. MarshallrN.G A LIVE JUDGE. The Asheville Citizen of Tues day brought the news of the ar rest of several of the hotel men of Asheville. Just a few weeks ago there had been arrests of the druggists for the sale of intoxi cating liquors in the city. These arrests were made on the order of Judge Frank Carter who bad instructed the grand jury to in vestigate the Bale of liquor in the city. However the jury did nothing and the judge of his owu authority ordered the arrest of owners and managers of the Lan gren, the Battery Park and the Glen Rock hotels. The propriet ors were arrested as aiders and abettors. We are glad to see this act on the part of Judge Carter, because it shows him to be a man who is not afraid to follow out his convictions. So many persons upon the- bench trim their sails to catch the wind and so often times we see the law transgressed because some officer has some private reason for not wishing t o prosecute a friend. Judge Carter has shown himself a man on every occasion .and his friend is the man that obeys the law. It is indeed gratifying to see the law and the executors of the law not going after the' little man but after the man higher up. Too long we have made the agent suffer and justly too but the man. who profits . by that agent and the greater criminal by all means has gone ; scott free. But Judge Carter has gone for the men whoare really respon sible for the, flagrant transgres sion of the law and they are und er bond to appear before ' court. Our wish iS that he may be the one to try them because we .have learned to trust Judge Carter and we know that justice will be meeted but to the offender what ever his standing before the pub lic. Besides we know that the other officers of the court will do their duty better when" they know that the Judge , is a man who is for the enforcement of the law first of all: ; Some of. these we do not trust very .much but Judge Carter we do. We trust that this is only the beginping of a wide spread awakening to the i0c& mat it is necessary to go after the real criminal. -In New York they had a convincing proof in the cdnvictibnd of : the police lieutenant and ' the v accusation, went stiU farther up. ( Now it is beginning dQwn here and the men who in the past have done" these things with impunity are finding that justice is knocking at their door and that like a search war rant itxannot be refused. And we trust that if they .are guilty they may suffer as would the lowest of bootleggers because to place this business of liquor sell ing where it should be we must punish all that engage in it. Judge Carter is alive to this and so he has done what he has. Heres to you, Judge Carter, you're a man. Would Make tfcem Better If they COUld.
