If ex-Gov. | 'Blaton were to announce that he deems Georgia no fit place to return to, it would not be the nation’s impulse to call him coward, The present Governor of Georgia has shown little energy in seek- to bring Frank’s murderers to justice. He knew the lynchers had | jged their victim from jail. Yet while F'rank’s fate was till in ibt, the Chief Executive of the State went off on » speech-making What Gov. Harris has said about the crime has been perfunc- fy. What he has done, he has done half-heartedly and with - hesitation. i One thing is certain. Until Georgia has atoned for this outrage by” punishing its perpetrators, self-respecting men in public life throughout the rest of the nation will not welcome invitations from iat State or willingly address Georgia audiences. Nor will the or- | dinary traveller feel sorry to get outside its borders. _ ‘If there were any way to discipline a State, Georgia should be “made to feel the full weight of the nation’s verdict upon its shameful flouting of the law. 3 —_——-4-_—___ ; He;tian Rebels Want to Fight Americans—Headline Indulgence is sometimes the speediest cure, sibieticeemerentpibiicinienctenianian NO ONRUSH OF CALM.

Now, there dwelt a Bachelor in Babylon who was called “BLIGIBLE,” and among the damsels and the matrons he was known as “Dearboy.” For he was FRANKLY a marrying man, And when Eligible had waxed thirty he sought him a wife and found her—even tho Ideal Being of whom he had dreamed. For, lo, she was both cute and intelligent, fluffy and domestic, good and | Interesting, clever AND fair to look upon. | And Eligible was straightway smitten and cried in his heart: “THAT for mine!” Whereupon he besought the maiden, saying: “Beloved, I pray thee, be my wife and the darner of my eocks; the | guardian of my digestion, the collector of my collar buttons, the keeper of my heart and the custodian of my conscience, For, behold, I woulé | marry and SETTLE DOWN!” But the damsel questioned him, eaying: “WHY? For, alas, I have watched theemany moons and through | vartous flirtations, and I have perceived that thou hast NOT the ‘settling qualities” But Eligible was undismayed, and answered her, saying: “Nay, Little One, thou hast got my number wrong. | “For though I confess that I have flirted with the maidens of the eum- mer resort, and squandered my shekels upon footlght favorites, and east the pearls of my sentiment before the fluffy thing and the grass widow and the seasoned flirt and the simple equab, yet in my heart I have eafd lalways that when I ehould MARRY it would be one like unto thyself, a wise and sensible damsel and a Real Helpmete. “Moreover, I have perceived that thou rather iikest me, and WHY shall we not be happy together?” But the damsel smiled with the corner of her mouth, and answered softly, saying: “Nay, Dear Boy! Thou hast mistaken me. “For though I may have smiled upon thee {t was but in jest and mot SERIOUSLY. “Vertly, verily, I too have flirted with the lightweights, and ao- cepted bonbons and roses and compliments from the girltamers.
