i STILL TIME TO HELP.
i 1t is not too late to help the dem
t‘ocrms win the national election for
gtha principles of world peace anq
'Xrue national honor. For more than
# montH ‘the gituation has improved
immensely. The tide has been in
favor of Cox and Rooseyelt. Those
in charge of the dom(\(-:&liv cam
paign have been exerting eyery ef
fort to increase the tide and make it

of Cox and Roosevelt. But they are

YOUR HOURS OF FREEDOM.
1t doesn’t take a scientist or sage
to discover that organized recreation
will do more to bring a commuunity
rtogether than anything e se. Geo.
Eliot with almost prophetic vision
uttered these words many yearg ago:
ulnlponfm)‘n m« u, is g‘ urz?:'mq? and
direct the indugtry ofiithe’ wosld, it
is mumi“l.lm.?bml ‘li(;ifpr];ani?éF and
direct the léumr_e of the world! “
Mugter‘finck has this to say on lhej
same subject: “It is the way the hours
of freedom are spent that df‘tr-rmiua;;,i
as much as war or labor, the moral
worth of a nation.,” . ! 4
Neighborhood - and - community
work are not new in this rmnm'y.]
From Maine to California and l’rmnl
the lakes to the gulf the playground |
and playfield spirit has grown untll!
it iy no longer necessary to :ldv:m(‘u’
arguments as to the desirability :nuli
need of community activity in nmk-’
ing provision for the unoccupied ‘
hours of the children first of all and|
then of our youths and maidens .-mrli
finally for the grown ups of all ages. |
The school cnrl"i(-nlum pmvidtesi
for play, the club or order or socivty’
is constantly considering the leisurée
hour, and even the church is givingl
unremitting attention to the problem
of securing large and frequent gath
erings of its people which are socially
as well as religiously interesting and
uplifting.
Cordele has given considerahle
thought to these and kindred subjecty
for many years, but the results Iqu-;
not been as satisfactory by any mmns}
as one might wish. We need a cen
tral agency appointed for the very
purpose to guarantee progress in the
grow together, get-together and pull
together movement which the occ#
sion demands. Other commuunities
have felt the same need and out of
this need, which is nationwide has
sprung the national ;lgouvy', known
cas Communiy Service,
Community Service is now (-ondm-;;
ing an intensive campaign in South
Georgia. It has organizeqd a band of
skilled reereational workers under
competent leadership and has sent
SQIC Af 8 Desds Bepresentatives inte
this field—but only for a limited per
iod. Cordele must act promptly
therefore, if it is to realize all the‘
benefits that this service can bring,
and we count upon our strong and
influential local committee to see
that we are first “under the wire.”
“We have said there is no time for
delay and “we must not fail.” Last
week in Wayeross Community Ser
vice gave one of the best exhibitions
of what concerted effort can accom
plish that can be brought to our a'-
tention. Mary Street Park needed
cleaning, and five hundred men and
boys journeyed thither on October
IBth in the late afternoon armed \\'ith.
rakes, hoes, shovels, hammers, saws
uf\d other implements and utensils.
In two hours a waste of weeds and
trash had been converted into a
pleasing, usable and sightly recioq
tion park, boasting of a dozen pi2ces
of playground ang picnic apparatas.
swings, see saws, merry-ego-round
giant strides, sand court, baseball
diamond, tenmis court and lungh (a
bles—the last named utiiiy beme
used for the first time by the ladies
who served a hot supper to the work
ers.
In Fitzgerald Community Service
has organized a number of athletics
meets in the evening on grounds
lighted by electricity anq the nunu-s!
of more than two hundred members
of church choirs and other musical
organizations have been enrolled for
community singing s:md choral work
in conjunction with an orchestra ol
fifty pieces. And Vienna with its
new community house hag asked Cor
dele Community Service how Vienna
may obtain the benefits of play
grounds and community service.’

~ “OFFICJALLY"” MEANS WHAT?
Georgin' may be against tho
: League officially but a 10. of
‘, folks in it are not.—Thomasville
Times-Enterprise. ‘ o
As for us, .we protest. the word
“officially.” Georgia may he offi ‘ul
ly against the league, and the sl.’:l(e1
may some day still turn out al
lurger number of the qualified voters
against the league, but the Watson!
Hearst-Hardwick ring is not “ofri
cially” democracy in 'Georgia. 1i i 3
properly and plainly the umi-(lrn;u"-!
ratic element. It could be nothing:
else, : ] T
The democratic party for the past:
eight years has maintained a pro-|
gru‘m which this ring has condemned
The leader of the party is condemn
ed by this erowd and maligned be
vond hope of accord or party harmo
ny.
On'()cmhm' 18, Watson, the most
contemptible political viper thig state
has ever reared, wrote and published |
this of the greatest leader the d(lnm-I
cratic party i»n America has ever pro
duced: : ‘
The world has no appreciable
liking for a liar; Woodrow Wil
~ son has firmly established the
i record of being the most unblush
l ing, consumate and unscrupu
loug liar that ever lied. . g
That political element in Georgia
which stands strong in the democra
tic faith of the nation will not admit
that this foulest of all human vultures
has any right “officially” to speak in
this manner for the party of our fa
dhers. For the lack of manly char
acter, he has no right to speak. F()rt
the !n(:k of personal and ])Olili(‘i-ll in-]
tegrity, he does not measure in they
least as a fit leader in Goergia.- Bo~|
cause the great government of thisl
country :‘in the prosecution of »fliwanr}
against a powvrl‘li]‘ enemy had mz
close his mouth for his traitorous ut
terances, this man has no right to‘
“official” leadership among us. Be|
cause of his drunken debauchery,
his lack ,of respect for the woman
hood of a .vhivuh‘nus state, we pro-|
test that he is not a fit leader for llu-‘
Liéllmfl'l'ncy of Georgia.: - - wwof
And the best evidence of all llmtl
he is the viper we know that he is‘,l
he goes about from place to I\]2!(‘,("
under guard and the protection of a
big ln|ll_\" for a body guard au'medl
with a pistol to protect his shaking
cowardly frame from his own imagin
ary dangersc As for us, we do not
admit that such a usurper of leader
ship can ever become the “officially”
spokesman of the Georgia ~ democ
vacy we love and cherish ang’ defend.

It is not his idea of the league
that bo;hers us. The league hag al
ready won its place in the peace of
the world. The appalling thing is
that. nothing good can be said of him
in the place he holds.
DEMOCRATS ON GUARD.,
{ Kditor of The Dispatch:
: Your edito;lal in the Nl(;fi(i;m
of your paper was timely and to the
| point. It emphagizes the necessity
of true democrats being on the guard
today against those copperheads with:
in the party who seek to tear down
the structure on those who oppose
them, little thinking that they too
must be caught in the fall.
There is no essential difference be
tween . these workers of today and
the carpetbaggers of the 60's, and !
admire your straightforward way of
telling them jtlst where good peo
ple stand, though I do not mean that
all or any of those whd voted for
these men are-not good; they are
temporarily carried away with the
hot air and appeal to man's baser
self, but let us hope that they shulfl
regain their poise and good s"nm‘l
before another election,
1 thank you.
Yours truly,
W. A. HASSELL.

'SAVANNAH FRESS:
| JJudge T, E. Patterscn, member of
‘the Prison on Commission of Geor
‘gia, has just returned from the an
nual convention of the National Pri
scn Association, held in Ohio last
week, :
“I heard ‘Governor Cox in Colum
hus,” said Judge Patterson. “He had
an audience of at least 12,000 people.
Whether they were all with him at the
start of his speech I do not know,
but they certainly seemed to be with
him at the finish. His peroration
was one of the most eloguent and
effective examples of oratory I have
ever heard. - !
“Senator Harding and the group
of reactionary Republicans promot
ing his candidacy,” said Governor
Cox, “may follow the example of
Cain in international affairs, but as
for me, 1 take my stand with the
meek and lowly Nazerene, who preach
ed the gospel of peace on earth, and
good will toward men.”
“] have never seen an audience
raised to a higher pitch of enthusiasm
It seemed to me that every person
in the world vast assembly was on
his feet, cheering and applauding. It
was a most tremendous popular tri
umph. ?
“Governor Cox is supremely confi
dent of victory. He shows it.in hig
face, reflects it in his manner, drives
it home with power{‘ul effect in his
campaign speeches.’ §

CoLUMBUS, GA.—"For a quarter
of a century I have considered Dr.
Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery
one of my favorite remedies. When
I was teaching school I spent eight
years in a malarial, swampy section,
and to keep my system in a condi

to take the ‘Golden Medical Discov

health.”—Mßs. O. F. HENDERSON,
