Now own the crop of Irish 'taters.
DeValera now can seek some shack,
Go 'way off yonder and sit back.
His folly has cost Ireland dear;
His sun has set; now peaco is near.

For we can see it more and more:

If you fail to care for things to eat;
Raise corn and peas, and tell the

The Plight of France.
France, who so gallantly faced the
bullets of Germany's invading armies
as they turned her homes into desola
tion, is now having to face the merci
less criticism of her former allies.
Germany was smart enough to lay
down her arms and cry "kamerad"
as soon as the victorious Allies were
eady to invade her territory, know
ing her enemies well enough to be
sure that they would respect the
white flag. She did not want her
own lands over-run and homes and
factories and mines destroyed as she
had done in France, and thus saved
herself from loss and humiliation.
France, as the chief sufferer at
Germany’s hands, - has rightly been
the largest claimant in the big bill
for reparations that Germany is
justly called upon to pay. And, by
the way, the Germans are paying
taxes at the rate of only $13.88 a
year per capita, while the French are
paying at the rate of $45.62, yet the
Germans claim to be unable to pay
anything for reparations. If Germ
any had been the vetor, any hesita
tion on the part of the conquered as
to payment of her demands would
have brought the mailed fist and iron
heel in wrath upon them, and—also
by the way,—if the Germans had
won, there are some folks in these
United States who are making much
ado about their taxes who would
then have found out how much they
could really pay.
Germany owes France an enor
mous debt under the terms of the
Versailles treaty, but is apparently
making no honest effort to pay it,
and probably never will unless force
is used against her, and she well
knows that Europe does not want to
see another big war in the near fu
ture. She claims, however, that if
the reparations bill were modified
and she could be granted a foregn
loan, she would turn this loan over
to her creditors. A group of inter
national bankers, among them repre
sentatives of American institutions,
recently went to Germany to make
arrangements for such a loan, but
France refused to be a party to the
scaling down process, and the plnn
failed.
France has been bitterly criticized
for her refusal to agree to modifica
tions, but her positions is perfectly
natural. She owes vast sums to Great
Britain and the United States, the
loans being made to save them from
defeat as well as herself, and she
docs not feel that she can afford to
make concessions to her ancient en
emy while her friends are demanding
full payment from her. She is will
ing to do her part, but does not wont
to do it all. American critics of the
French would do well to understand
their viewpoint before judging too
harshly.
In spite of the fact that the elec
tions in Ireland showed him to be in
a hopeless minority, "President" de-
Valera disregarded the evident
wishes of his people and kept on
fighting. This time his rebellion was
not against Great Britain, but a-
gainst the new Irish Free State, and
instead of fighting British soldiers
he was fighting his brother Irishmen.
The last of his forces met defeat last
week, and it is to be hoped the Em
erald Isle will now reume its natural
color instead of "seeing red" all tre
time.
Wonder if the Dyer anti-lynching
bill would cover such wholesale mur
der as occurred a few days ago in
the Illinois coal mining district? By
the way, the Chicngo papers and Re
publican politicians who have had so
much to say about an occasional ne
gro being lynched for assault on
white women in Georgia, could find
something to talk about nearer home
where some forty white men were
foully murdered just because they
wanted to work. If this had been
done by Mexicans, we would have
wanted to go to war with them at
once; if by some far-off heathen, we
would have wanted to double our
forco of missionaries.

Folks may talk and argue about
what is the matter with the country
and give various reasons, but there is
only one. The removal of the family
altar and hearthstone from our
homes by the automobile and the cry
of the foolish that times are changed,
is the one real and only cause of the
fall of our social fabric. Every time
a mother wants to uphold a boy or a !
girl that stays out half the night,she
says that times are different. Every
time a man wants to excuse his spoil
ed kid about laying out at night act
ing ugly, he says times are changed
when there is nothing true about it.
Folks have changed somewhat, but
not time. If every home will resur
rect the family altar and make it a
rigid rule that the family must gath
er about the hearthstone on each day
for one hour, the real trouble in this
country will be over, and don’t you
forget it. The doing away with the
altar has done away with family life
in this country, and thus will come
the fall.—Bainbridge Post.

Government {reports show Geor
gia’s cotton crop in tho poorest con
dition of any cotton state. Polk’s
condition is given as 51 per cent of
normal. "Watch your step," and
look well after your food and feed
crops.
Brack Blalock, Gov. Hardwick’s
secretary, called Hon. C. K. Rittrcll,
Representative from Laurens county,
a liar last week, and Mr. Kittrell
promptly proceeded to pummel him.
The trouble occurred in the Kimball
House lobby, and the men were sep
arated before any serious damage
was done.
Some of the papers insist on speak
ing of Arthur Lucas as manager of
Hon. W. J. Harris’ campaign in his
splendidly successful race for the
United States Senate. Such ignor
ance is surprising, for it was Hon. L.
S. Ledbetter, of Cedartown,who man
aged the campaign, and did it so well
that he received the commendations
of friends and opponents alike for
the clean methods that he employed.
Polk county people got through
the "slump" in good shape because
they had raised plenty of food and
feed stuffs. Conditions were such
that they could not turn these into
money, and many farmers have over
looked the fact that they have made
and saved money by having them to
live on, and are helping Billie Boll
Weevil to complete mastery by de
voting their attention to cotton and
neglecting provision for their fami
lies if the pest does here what he
does everywhere until people learn
how to fight him. It is not yet too
' late to get in sorghum and peas, and
J that is the only safe and sensible
I thing to do.
Don’t Be Fooled.
"Fool me once," says the proverb,
"and it’s shame on you. Fool me
twice, and it’s shame on me."
Don’t be fooled when it comes to
spending your money. Patronize the
merchants who have a reputation for
fair dealing and honesty. Such mo
tives necessarily actuate the consis
tent advertiser. The man who in
vests real money in building a repu
tation for himself and his merchan
dise cannot afford to risk any of it
by taking unfair advantage of hia
patrons.
The consistent advertiser pays
money to tell you about his goods.
He knows they are good—he backs
them with his money because he be
lieves they will satisfy you. Only
merchandise which is consistently
good can be consistently advertised.
Advertising protects you against
fraud and inferiority. It tells you
what is new and good, making you a
buyer. It saves you money by
pointing out for your consideration
only the best products and the best
places to buy them.
Thrifty men and women read tho
advertisements. To them it is a
plain every-day business proposition
—a duty they owe to themselves and
to their pocketbooks. Don’t be
fooled. Don’t spend your money
blindly; read the advertisements.
