Taylor County’s
Honor Roll.
'these are only a few of ourboys in
the service of the United States. We
have made and are still making dili
gent effort to secure the names and
addresses of each and every one in
this service. We will certainly ap-
preiate the help of all persons in get
ting a complete and corret roster.
Hardwick an Obstructor.
Word has gone out broadcast over
this entire country that the present
incumbent, T. W. Hardwick, has been
obstructing in every way possible the
furtherance and successful prosecu
tion of this war by opposing and in
delaying and hindering, by dilatory
tactics, the passage of the most im
portant and vital legislation demanded
by extreme conditions to hasten mili
tary supplies, necessary guns and am
munition and food to our army on the
battle line.
I boldly assert that Georgia is
standing the acid test of loyalty and
valor; in fact, there has been no is
sue of “loyalty” in Georgia since the
declaration of war, except such as has
been feigned by unscrupulous politi
cians hoping to ride into office on the
popularity and greatness of others.
Georgia and her citizens stand stead
fast and at the forefront for the speedy
aud victorious winning of the war,
with every dollar and, if need be, every
life pledged to this end.
In asking the suffrage of the people
of Georgia for this high office, I pledge
myself to stand firmly and steadfast
ly by President Wilson as commander-
in-chief of the army and navy until
final victory, and will heartily support
such measures as tend to strengthen
the army and navy and promote the
great object of bringing about a~n ear
ly, successful and lasting peace.
After the War Is Over.
1. 1 favor restoration of our coun
try on broad and constructive lines and
in continuing in full force the Monroe
Doctrine.
2. The great shipping interests of
our country should be extended until
our flag sails into every port, carry
ing both our farm and manufactured
products where the best market prices
can be obtained.
Our Georgia ports should be extend
ed; our farms improved; our state de
veloped: our industries enlarged that
every vocation may thrive and pros
per.
I favor wise and salutary laws for
the protection of the farmer and his
products; laws that will provide money
at a low rate of interest and fertil
izers and supplies at reasonable cost
hat tbe soil may yield a good return
the honest and diligent producer;
farm loan act should be amended
Provide for capital, just and rea
sonable returns upon legitimate invest
ments, that our industries may be
properly protected and the great re
sources of our country developed.
8. Regulate the powers of the pres
ident and congress so ns to fully pro
tect the rights of the states, under
state legislation. ,
9. I have always stood for prohibi
tion and urge the legislature of Geor
gia to ratify the national prohibition
amendment
10. Under present conditions organ
ization in ail lines op endeavor is es
sential to success.
Allow all people freedom and liberty
of action and conduct, governed only
by the laws of our land, based upon
the just and equal rights of others.
11. I am opposed to any union of
church and state.
For Government Ownership.
12. 1 endorse the taking over and
operation of the railroads by the gov
ernment during the present war
emergency, and believe that it will and
should result in government owner
ship.
13. I favor honesty and integrity
in the political world. 1 oppose using
money, liquor or the promise of office
for tlie purpose of securing votes, it
is very dangerous for the welfare of
the country that a candidate should be
surrounded by and dependent upon
government contractors and office-
seekers for contributions with which
to carry on a campaign for United
States senate and I oppose it.
14. It is equally dangerous and
reprehensible for an highly paid offi
cial to “resign” effective months and
months ahead, and then devote practi
cally no time to official duties, but use
both tbe time and the salary rightful
ly belonging to tbe people in further
ance of- a campaign for the United
States Senate.
15. I propose to pay my own ex
penses in my race, and to aocept no
contributions from any person, firm or
corporation, and to go in pledged only
io tbe people of the entire State of
Georgia without regard to locality or
section.
i respectfully solicit the support of
every voter of Ibe state in the coming
primary.
Yours faithfully,
H. H. DEAN.

Constantine's Cross.
The cross was the emblem of a
slave's death and a murderer’s pun
ishment and was naturally looked
upon by the Jew with horror. After
the celebrated vision of Constantine,
that ruler ordered to be made a cross
of gold and gems such as he had seen
and the “tree of cursing and shame
sat hpon scepters and was engraved
and signed on the forehead of kings."

The Pneumonia Season.
The cold, damp weather of March
seems to be the most favorable for
the pneumonia germ. Now is the
time to be careful. Pneumonia often
results from a cold. The quicker a
cold is gotten rid of the less the
danger. As soon as the first indica
tion of a cold appears take Chamber
lain’s Cough Remedy. As to the
value Of this preparation, ask any
one who has used it.
Use Vinegar.
Use vinegar instead of water to mix
your piaster of paris; the resultant
mass will be like putty and will not
“set” for 20 or SO minutes, whereas,
if you use water, the plaster will be
come Yard almost immediately, before
you have time to use it; push your
“vinegar plaster" Into the cracks and
smooth it off nicely with a table knife.
Despondency Due to Constipation.
Women often become nervous and
despondent. When this is due to
constipation it is easily corrected by
taking an occasional dose of Cham
berlain’s Tablets. These tablets are
easy to ttake and pleasant in effect.
Phrase First Used by Johnson.
Dr. Samuel Johnson used the phrase
“Father of Waters” before it was ap
plied to the Mississippi river. In the
twenty-fifth chapter of .T hnson’s “Ras-
seias” the prince addresses the River
Nile as “great father of waters, thou
that roliest thy floods through eighty
nations.” Rasselns was published in
1759 and as far ns classic fame is con
cerned this Nile has much better claim
to the title "Father of Waters” than
the Mississippi has.

“Barebones Parliament”
The Barebones parliament was a
nickname given to a British parlia
ment convened by Oliver Cromwell in
1653. Its enemies gave it that nick
name from the name of one of its
members, Praisegod Barbon, a leather
dealer and Puritan preacher of that
day.
Very New.

mother saw a dog with a license tag on

taken the tag off of yet.”

Large Familiea Chinese Distinction.

proof of the good temper and correct
course of life of its members and as
a sure path to prosperity. A large
family which is aide to live together
without dividing up the property al
ways receives much credit and is high

Points To Be Remembered
1. The Georgia Sunday School Association is a co-operative efforts of all
denominations for more and better Sunday Schools, and is the only organi
zation in the State which aims to help every Sunday School. The work is
by way of suggestion, not by authority, therefore it helps many, it hinders
none.
2. The Association is managed by an Executive Committee of 53 Chris
tian business men. Denominationally they are as follows: 19 Medthodists,
18 Baptists, 9 Presbyterians, 4 Christians, 2 Episcopalians, 1 Lutheran.
3. The Association sells nothing, but is supported by contributions. Its
workers go into every county in the State annually and furnish free on re
quest hundreds of thousands of pages of printed matter on the best meth
ods of Sunday School work.
4. The Taylor County Sunday School Association is one of the integral
parts of the Georgia Sunday School Association. The meeting indicated
by this program is an interdenominational meeting, and every worker in ev
ery white Sunday School in Taylor county is urgently requested to attend.
