We’ro glad to say that the Free Staters 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. Let us say it o'er and o’er, For we can see it more and more: A sure disaster you will meet, If you fail to care for things to eat; Raise corn and peas, and tell the weevil That he can go right to the deevil.. Uncle Sam looks queer, you bet, With one foot dry and t’other wet Folk’s who’re kicking say he oughter Have both feet dry, e’en on the water There are a few men in the Geor gia Legislature who are wasting sev eral thousand dollars a day in their fight on two of the State’s most use ful branches—the Agricultural and Highway Departments. 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. Men Get Busy.

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. The United States Senate last Sat urday passed the bill of Senator W.J. Harris admitting small banka to the Federal Reserve System. Whatever troubles Adam had, No one could make him sore By saying when he told a joke "I’ve heard that gag before." —Alliance Review and Leader.

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. tale-jitetfcsfo ONE SAID, “ I CANT. LET GEORGE DO IT.” GEORGE DID. AND GOT THE CREDIT, CGPTE.GHT 1922 PUB. AUTOCASTER SERvTcO
