WIFE CUTS HUH BECAUSE
HER HUSBAND PULLED IT
CHICAGO, 111., Sept. 22.—Mrs. Jean
ette Purdy Derby’s “’Castle-clipped”
hair may be put in evidence when the
i
suit for divorce brought by Frank
Derby, a city employe, comes to trial.
Mrs. Derby’s shingled locks may be
introduced in an effort to substanti
ate certain charges of crue’ty with
which she intends to counter her hus
band’s allegations.
She had her tresses shorn, not be
cause she likes the Castle style par
ticularly, but because, so it is said
she grew tired of her husba.id pulling
them.
Mrs. Derby, just 21 years old, was
the favorite niece of the late Edward
Tilden, multimillionaire packer. Her
marriage in 1913 created something of
a furore, as the young couple eloped
the bride being eloper No. 6of the
Pudry family.
One night recently, following a mis
understanding between the pair, which
was carried on in tones sufficient for
the neighbors to catch the trend of
conversation, Derby left. He returned,
later with a detective, so it is said,
and toted away his clothes. The di
vorce bill followed.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY.
The world would be better for it
If men cared less for wealth and fame
And less for battle fields and glory,
If writ in human hearts a name
Seemed better than in Song and
Story;
If men, instead of nursing pride,
Would learn to hate it and abhor it.
If more relied on love to guide
The world would be better for it.
If more would act the play of Life,
And fewer spoil it in rehearsal;
If Bigotry would sheathe its knife,
Till Good became more universal;
If custom, gray with ages grown,
Had fewer blind men to adore it;
If talent shone
| In Arthur alone,
The world would be better for it.
THE AMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECORDER
If men were wise in little things—
Affecting less in all their dealings;
If hearts had fewer rusted strings
To solate their kindred feelings;
If men when wrong beats down the
right,
, Would strike together to restore it,
L
If Right made Might
In every fight.
The world would be better for it.
—W. H, Cobb.

MON POLITICS
BOILING WITH HEfiT
MACON, Ga, Sept. 22.—Sizzling at
fever heat would well describe the
state of human mind a few weeks
hence when the world series will oc
cuipy the center of attraction, but
these same adjectives apply to Ma
con’s political situation.
The one candidate for mayor is
Bridges Smith, who now occupies the
seat of chieftain of the city govern ■
ment. But there are two distinct al
dermanic tickets.
The latest "break” in the situation
comes with the publication of a half
page advertisement in the Macon News
Tuesday afternoon, signed by the "Clt
izen’s Campaign Committee,” which is
headed "Dollars vs. Decency.”
The article charges the Macon Tele
graph, the morning contemporary of
the Macon News, with aspiring “to the
role of political dictator in local poli
tics,” but prefaces this with the state
ment that the Telegraph is publishing
a “separate and distinct paper 'For Ne
groes Only’.” The paper which is said

Several items from the page are pub

developments will likely come thick
and fast.
