Down in Memphis they are brag

Presumably the mayor's offer still
stands that he will guarantee a thou
Bond feet more of frontage signatures
than was behind the vetoed intevur
ban ordinances, as a basis for the or
dinances which he has offered in lieu
of them; ami as all the vital points
of difference between His Honor and
the promoters were ndjuuted, there
does not seem to be any good reason
why a complete agreement should
not be reached.
It Is quite surprising how many of
the citizens of the north end of this
county do not take any Cairo news
paper; but there is Pome consolation
In the fact that those who do have a
proper degree of confidence in what
they read ill (belli. This was in blent
from answers made to iptestions by
the attorneys in the Ford' murder case
jeiderday. Genet ally the men who hal
read about the case had form -d op
Inlons which it would have taken
sworn testimony to change. These
were disqualified from service.
Much stress is laid upon the cc nteti
tion that, under the law, a man is pr
timed to be Innocent until proven
guilty beyond a reasonable d'iJ ,t TIck
is played upon very strongly in exam
ining men for Jutts in murder trials
and it is "troted out" as a niH.zle for
the press in its comments upon such
cases before or during trial. And yet
the law declares that a man may 1
arrested, jailed, brought before a cor
oner's Jury, then held without bond
and behind prison bars until .1 gra td
Jury passes upon tits case, and If a
true bill is found he shall be agai i
remanded to jail until a trirtl jury ac
quits him. And all this time, so We
are told, the law 'presumes the man
to be innocent." PrefMistrVrous: As ;
matter of fact the law "fit' some s-' an
accused to be guilty until he Is proven
innocent. Every step l' prescribes jft
euch cases justifies thi declaration.

of his good fortune, instead of hugging

Let us start with the new girl in the

r.rown tells Jones that the new girl looks
like a hustler. .Jones telN Green that he
likes the way she. iroes at her machine as
if she mount business. And then she passes
out of Un ir minds until the day's work is
done.
Not fo the girls! They watch her furtively. They decide whether
she had to work to help her folks, or just came downtown to earn pin
money. Thev know whether her waist is new or made over. Thev waste
considerable gray matter to ascertain whether rbe does her own hair or
patronizes a prorssiunal hair dresser.
These conjectures and this initial survey by her fellow-workers do
no fciifm. lbit there is another type of girl I he girl who simply must dip
into ollice polities. She mav be a chronic malcontent, an otliee anarchist',

The scholarly William F, Byorly,
professor of mathematics at Har
vard, was once asked by a student
how ot develop a retentive memory.
The professor answered tnat ordi
nary mental exercise was Bufllclent
to secure a good memory, whereat
the atudent asked if he might test
the mental capacity of his instruc
tor. Prof. Byerly agreed, and the
student asked him to listen to and
remember several varied items for
a test. Ho began:
"One quart of whiskey."
"Cm! ' said the p-ores..t .
"Six pounds of sugar, a pint of
sour milk, three onions, half a gal
lon of molasses, and two raw egs."
"Cm!' entd the professo.'.
"One quart of whiskey."
"Cm!" snld the profossor
"Two green apples, twenty-six
peanuts, one and one-half cucum
bers and four mlnco pies."
"Um!" said the professor.
"A package of starch, sixty-seven
cakes of yeast, and the skins of
seven bananas. Got that down?"
"Yes," answered Dr. Byerly.
"How does It taste?" asked the
itudent. Boston Herald.

She does not sloji to ticrure out th;:f this girl was suspicio'islv friendly

That is the beginning of a fatal int inim-v. She has discovered an
ollice "cnii.li" who will use her when the occasion ari..

You all know how these things go on in the schoolroom, in the
church society, in tho dancing club. Well, it is just the same in the busi

When you tell a girl, whom you have not tested, all your personal af
fairs, all your family troubles, ail your pitiful little efforts to make both
ends meet and keep up appearances, you are placing in her hands a two
edged sword. She can cut deeply into your sclf-osVem and your business
future.
Many girls, alone in a large city, must look to oflip acquaintance
for companionship outside business hours, but they should make haste
slowly, studying the candidates for that beautiful post of "friend" with
