THE HOM Pleasing Evening Reveries Tired Mothers as T1 v Circle at Ev( 4 n?rpp} it,ion ! T e Youth's Companion makes an earnest plea for an "appreciation 1-eugue," and the idea is most worthy.

Very likely you have written to the general manager of ti e electric road \>hen a conductor rang the bell too soon or did not notice your signal to stop. Have you ever written to tell him about the conductor who is always courteous and obliging? If you think one act necessary at times, is not the other fair and generous? Are kindness and courtesy always to be taken for granted in small business relations among stran gers, or are you readier to find fault than to express appreciation? . A man in an Ohio city has founded what he calls an "appreciation league." Its members agree to "report'' employes who are considerate and courteous, to emphasize the amiable things that people do, to wato'i- more keenly ior virtues thain fcr weaknesses and i faults. The lelgue is an ins' ormal organization; you can become a member by beginning at once to practice its principles. A simple idea?

A'tashingtc-n, March 8.?Some confueion has been created in South Caro una oy me report sent oui itoui mm>uiagton Friday afternoon to the effect that the president had "elected" Representative Joseph T. Johnson, of Spartanburg, for t5 e newly-created *o?ition of < ederal judge of the westers district of South Carolina, and that fee would be nominated within the next tew days. It is true that the president has ifuliy decided that he will appoint Mr. Johnson, but it is not likely t at tie appointment will be made before *e next meeting of congress, or at J least of the senate. Should the senate ' cabled in extra session in October. ' as has been suggested b?y Senator , the nomination of Mr. Johnson I tigtit be made at that time, bat it is mot li-kely to be made earlier, and in ' tfce event tT at there is no extra sea- j sioo. of the senate, the judicial nomi atioti will probably not be made until ?&cember. President Wilson is, generally, op- j to recess nominations for important offices. Under the constituHam. he nominates men for offices, but it i? necessary for the senate to confirm these nominations by its "adrioe and consent" before the official is fully and legally in office, though his acts after a recess appointment are legal until the last day of tf-e succeeding session of congress, even tkwigh confirmation is withheld. It is not at all likely that so important a place as district judge "will be filled by a recess appointment. It is ungual for a judge to be named and to go on the bench without confirmation, uniees there are special circumstances demanding immediate appointment. Tbis, of course, is not the case in the nomination of an entirely new district court. Court in Spartanburg. There 'has been some comment in connection with the fact that the new bill does not provide for federal courts ia Spartanburg.

J^iinson introduced early in his serv4/.v ir> rrviKyroeu nrnviflorl fnr pnnrf's in C ?H f Spartanburg. One of tl ose bills, it will be recalled, got through bofc houses & congress, and was vetoed oy President Roosevelt. Later bills were killed because of having been leaded down with new court provisions, nearly half a dozen towns in the district having been inserted as new court locations. 1'he bill which was enacted provides for courts at Rock Hill and Greenwood. Greenville is already and has been (for a number 'of years, t).e seat of a federal court wi^en tne ceiegation was considering the recent bill, introduced by Mr. Aiken, Representative Johnson asked that Spartanburg be included as a new court city, but the delegation, after careful consideration of the whole situation, with special reference to the state of the treasury jus* now, decided that tfre d ancs o< success in getting the bill through at the present time would be g:eat'.y enhanched if few-er new courts ?""> /vH on/1 tha nirmhor wD.^ C j/i v/iivicu, axiu wuv uuiXAu^A ?' cut down -to two. The proximity of Spartanburg to Greenville, and the ease with whld: litigants and atorneys in Spartanburg can reach the Greenville court, i ad considerable bearing upon this feature of the matter. The "e-'ose shave" by which the bill got through indicates that had it been burdened with even one additional new court provision, it probably would have (failed of passage. Jt is understood tJ-at it will be a comparatively easy matter, in a yoar or two, to secure tie establishment of an additional court and court "nouse at Spartanburg. The size of the city, and the fact that it has two Tailroad connections reaching into the edge of tte ''mountain dew" country, which is sipposed to furni^i a considerable proportion of federal court business, v ill be in the city's favor.
