Provision of Law Hold to Mak<
I? Impossible for Mrs.
Felton to Qualify..
H.v G??.?t.?! rVrvtee(
A cold and unfeeling provision of
the law again has its ?? to block the
hopes of Mrs W. H. Felton to as
sume the ?eat In the Senate to which
sh? was appointed as ?uccrssor of the
late Thomas E. Wateon, of f?eOrgla.
The. lateat plan wa? to have Judge
Welter F. Oeorge, the newlv nomi
nated Senator, delay the pr? s n*ation
to tht? plan if It would enable Mrs.
Felton to take her seat.
But parliamentarians and experts
of his credentials for a few-days after
Congress 1? called tn extra eeaaton to
permit Mr?. Kelion to be ?worn in
and thereby win the honor of being
the first woman United State? Sen
ator. Judge George himself an
nounced h.? willingness to be a party
matter today, declared this cannot be
on the Senate rules, studying the
lone. A? provision of the Georgia
?rtatutes 1? againat It. The Georg.a
law provide? that whenever a Senator
die? the governor may appoint a suc
cessor, who ?hall hold office "until
the next regular election following."
That apparently settle? it. But If
the law had provided that the ap
pointee might serve until the regu
larly elected successor "qualifies," it
then would be possible for Judge
'"?corse to hold back hi? credential??
and not qualify until Mr?. Felton had
enjoyed the privilege of occupying
?he Senate ?eat for two or three days.
If Congres?* should be called in
extra session any time before the No
vember ejection then, of course, Mrs.
Felton would be sworn in and seated.
It ia definitely understood, however
that the President will not summon
Congress until aome timo after tbe
election. ,
airs. Felton 4a now drawing pay
aa a Senator from the date of her
appointment, and will t-ontlnue to do
ao until the night of Novenaber ?,
the day before election, at which
time the disbursements to her will
cease automatically.

HAVE you ever experienced that "shut-in"
feeling, an oppressive sense of the nar
rowness of your environment, the monot
ony of your life, its barrenness of incident
and repetition of detail?
There-are but few who escape it; few,
indeed, whose lives so far transcend the
ordinary as to lift them and keep them out
of the rut of routine.
Yet we stand ever at the threshold of
an open door, a wide and invitingly open
door, through which we may pass at will
and wander, without let or hindrance,
through every age and every land, seeing
life in its most serene or tempestuous
phases, in its most tragic or humorous as
pects, its most realistic or fanciful presen
tations.
The Blessing
BOOKS
YES, books are a blessing, for they provide this
open door to the mystery and misery, splen
dor and squalor, sacrifice and selfishness of
thousands upon thousands of lives ; aye, all life itself.
Through them we may cruise with the Vikings or
hunt with the aborigines, ride with Attila's scourg
ing hordes or hearken to the diatribes of Savona
rola, enter the cloister or invade the harem, walk
with bleeding feet o'er Arctic ice or tramp the
fetid jungle, scale the lofty heights of the Hima
layas pr go down through Death Valley. Through
them we can live with and learn of all people of all
times of all places.
