O u m z R E C°R D Big Conference over —deals nnd dickers. And now the Scnute politickers Can get right busy and yip their yaps About the far-off, slant-eyed Japs, And at the gallant French can rail, And twist the British lion's tail. Farmers now say, “All aboard!" For Mussel Shouls nnd Henry Ford They'll get there, too, if they can bust The mighty 'Hucnco of the Trust, irishmen don’t feel Just right Unless they're mixed up in a fight, So North and South of the Emerald Isle Are like to come to blows a while. Now, people, heed this jazzy rhyme: There’s more than merely “a good time” That counts in this old world of ours. It's nice to sit in Pleasure's bowers Or frolic 'ncath the white lights’ glare, But that don’t get you anywhere. Wc take that back—it does not fall To get a lot of folks In jail. The thing that counts you must not shirk— It benrs the good old nnmo of Work. “Make It snappy!" That’s the way Things now are ordered day by dHy. As we've found out, that is the plan Pursued this week by the Weather Man. If the address label on your Stand ard foads “ljun22,” It moans that you arc paid to Jan 1st, 1922, and It is time for you to sond in your re newal.

He was born In Connccticutt but came to Goorgia In his young manhood, and has been one of her most prominent nnd useful citizens. ... I began using Cardul," continues Mrs. Burnett “After my first bottle, I slept better and ate better. I took four bottles.

Get them at Pur- bank Druy Co. It Is indeed gratifying that Berri en, the Atlanta banker who embez zled 440,000 of Georgia's public funds, was enught last week in New York. Thero was some grave care lessness somewhere or such a theft could not hnvo happened. Polk county raised practically the same amount of cotton in 1921 as in 1920, and at far less expense. Fur thermore, we were pnid for most of it about twice what we feared for a time wo would get. ^lost of our far mers raised their own food and feed stuffs, nnd are therefore nearer In dependent than they ever were be fore. The worst enemy the country has is the grouch who. can sec noth ing good, nnd who goes about "talk ing blue” all the while. Smile, dura ye, smile! There is no necessity for the far mers and business men of Polk to go through the hurrowing experiences thnt other sections have suffered from the boll weevil. Invariably the history of the pest has been that peo ple ,would not believe it was coming until they were ruined by it. Every man with a thimble-full of sense knows that the weevil will in all prob ability be far worse in Polk this year thnn last, nnd if they don’t propose to fight him they had better let their land rest than to put it in cotton. Whatever is done, every farmer worthy of the name will raise at least * an abundance of food and feed stuff for his own use. President Harding is opposed to the “agricultural bloc” in the Sen ate. It is a non-partisan organiza tion holding the balance of power,and it is becoming increasingly difficult for him to control the Senate through his usual Republican party management. Finding that his ex pressed disapproval “cut no ice," he is now taking an apparently surer way of breaking it up and has ap pointed its lender, Senator Kenyon, to a Federal Judgeship. The plan may not work, however, ns Kenyon’s successor as Senator from Iowa is likely to be a farmer. It is to be re- petted that Mr. Kenyon was not wil ling to sacrifice his personal ambition and “stay by his guns” in the Senate. Should Act Promptly. The Disarmament or Peace Con ference —which turned out to be neither the one nor the other —came to a formal end Monday, and its work now goes to the United States Senate for ratification or rejection. There is enough about its work with which fault could be found to give an apparent reason for Democrats to “even up” with President Harding, Senator Lodge and his brother Re publican world-wreckers for their treatment of the treaty which Pres ident Wilson brought home from Paris. There was so much good n- bout that treaty, however, that his tory will finnliy damn them for what they did, nnd the same thing would be true if the Democratic Senators would follow a very natural impulse to “get even” now. Just ns President Wilsbn could not get all he wanted In tile Treaty of Versailles, so President Harding nnd Secretary of State Hughes could not get everything they wanted in Wash ington. Their League of Nations, Ltd., is a long stop in the right di rection, however, and wc believe that tntcsmnnship —and, in the long run, good politics —demands a prompt ac ceptance of the various treaties n: far as Democratic votes arc concern cd. It is said that President Harding is today depending more on Senator Underwood, of Alnbnmn, to secure ratification of the treaties than upon Senntor Lodge, the Republican leader from Massachusetts,who has put him self In an embarrassing position by opposing Article X in the League of Nations and yet working for Article IV of the Pacific League. Democratic Senators can well point out the inconsistencies of their Re publican colleagues, but they should not “play politics” by making any unnecessary delays. The Republican Senate in rejecting the plan for world peace has brought untold disaster, from which we hove all been suffering ever since, nnd wc do not want to see our Democratic Senators a' party to the name cnla- mitoilh mistake. Obituaries. The Standard has never made any charge—as most pnpors do—for pub lishing obituaries and cards of thanks. All pnpors naturally feel that any such courtesies should be moro freely extended to the families of pntrons—men nnd women who show their appreciation of their homo paper by paying for it. Wc do not refer, of course, to those who are not able to do so—if there is really anyone who cannot afford to pay 3 cents a week for it,—for The Standard has always tried to treat all alike. With all our desire to be accom modating, however, we arc forced to nnnouncc a limit on these tributes, nnd shall hereafter publish only one "obituary” for a death, nnd this should be confined to the 100-word limit This does not apply to church nnd lodge resolutions. We often are forced by our limita tions of time and spnee to cut down these tributes to a reasonable length, and our readers can readily under stand the necessity which compels us to mnkc the announcement, as most obituaries of nny person arc neces sarily a repetition of the same matter A Fair Proposition. If this paper isn’t worth to you at least 3 cents a week—half the price of cheap cigars,—we do not want to send it to you a minute longer thnn it takes to scratch your name off our lists.—Cedartown Standard. Fair enough! Anybody who does not know thnt The Standard is worth more than 3 cents a week has n dis torted conception of values.—Jack Patterson in Atlanta Journal. And Brer Patterson is one of the best judges of such matters in Geor gia. The principle of the local resident for the local job is further carried out by n ruling of the Civil Sen-ice Commission. Hereafter, the Com mission states, only persons who have their residence within the delivery of the office in which the vacancy exists will be certified for mrnl carrier ap pointment. Heretofore certification has been made of eligibles residing within the delivery of any office in the the entire county in which the va- the entire county in which the va cancy office is situated. The new procedure places applicants for rural carrier appointments on the same ba sis as applicants for postmaster ap pointments, so far as the matter of residence is concerned. The Civil Service Commission states that this change hns been made after due con sideration, nnd meets with the appro val of the Post Office Department.

The trouble is that he needlessly hurts an entire community The Woodrow WiUon Foundation Fund. Dear Mr.Russoll:—You have kind ly called attention to the campaign which is now on all over the United States, to raise a fund to perpetuate the ideals of universal love and world wide peace between all nations, preached by thnt great American, Woodrow Wilson. As I have before stated, the Wood- row Wilson Foundation is an agency to encourage the application of gen ius to the public service by the pe riodical award of a prize, somewhat similar to the Nobel Peace Prize,and nt the same time it is in the nature of a permanent useful memorial to Woodrow Wilson. Every man and woman who stands for the high ideals advocated by our former President, regardless of poli tical creed, ought to enlist as a mem ber of the “Wilson Foundation.' Only a small contribution is expected from any one individual, and surely among the loyal, patriotic, peace-lov ing people of old Polk there are two or three hundred who only need their attention called to the matter, to en list a hearty response. I am anxious to wind up the cam- nalgn and mnkc a final report to the State Committee by March 1st, and am making this appeal to my fellow citizens to help me make a creditable howing or the good old county of Polk. Sincerely yours, L. S. LEDBETTER, Chmn. Since the last report the following '■ubscriptions have been received to the Woodrow Wilson Foundation: T. W. Schliestott 41.00 Judge F. A. Irwin 1.00 Mrs. F. A. Irwin 1.00 Miss Annie Neely Irwin 1.00 Miss May Langford 1.00 Morgan E. Brooks 1.00 Mrs. M. O. Huntington 1.00 Previously reported $35, making n total to date, $42. With $1 of American money worth throe times as much as French and fifty times as much as German, it makes trade with those countries de cidedly difficult. England.is stabiliz ing her money, but other European currency is in a bad way and this fact has its inevitable effect on conditions in this country. To be sure —and of course, —we just can’t have any thing to do with affairs on the other side of • the Atlantic, but our own prosperity is largely dependent on normal conditions there. Senator Harris is rendering the country as a whole, and particularly the agricultural interests of the South, a fine service in his efforts to get Mr. Ford to clarify and improve his offer to purchase nnd operate MuBcle Shoals in the interest not primarily of Mr. Ford but of agri culture as well. While it seems that it would be far better to accept the original Ford proposal than not to ac cept It nt all, it was a fine stroke of diplomacy on Mr. Harris’ part in the Interest of getting Congress to ac cept the offer to induce Mr. Ford to make it plainer and more definitely binding.—Macon Tolegraph. Alabama is to be congratulated on putting over her $25,000,000 good roads bond issue last week. It is a great forward step .for our sister state, and wc hope Georgia will soon take such a step—but three times as long.
