Sheldon earnestly asked to tell us “What would Jesus do” about this coal strike. It is surprising that Billy Maton, considering Iiis experiences as minstrel, does not nu.kc a cakewalk of his senatorial campaign. One of the greatest needs of the present time is a clock fa the court house tower. This would be a great convenience to the public at large. “We are going on the dry docks next week prepartory to participa tion in the fall maneuvers of the Georgia legislature," — Dawson News.

Take It after meals. Vienna Drug Co THE FRATERNAL ORDERS. The Citizen is gratified to see renewed efforts being made to. encourage wheat growing. A few years "ago there •'Was a veritable wheat crusade jn Georgia., resulting. thousands of ftjll barns and happy homes. The temptation t?»'ericroach;upon e^wheat fields with cotton is great however, makidg it necessary to keep- ever before- this- people the vital important matter ot leaking something tp eat. Thousands of dollars are leaving Macon county every year to pay for bread that can be made at home, C ^fi 3 ^ lt isnot he Bible conception of fraternity among men ns men. In Odd Fellowship, each degree is only one step further up the ladder to the Irue conception ot a man’s duty to his fellowmen and his God. These orders hold no fellowship us to the division of sect or party, and to do would be to destroy the fratern ity of mun. Renlizing that there are divisions in religions and other phases of life, they seek a common basis, which is “faith in God,” and no man who refuses to subscribe to this fundamental doctrine can become n member. The work done by these orders can not well be compared with the benevolent work of Christianity as the good derived from these secret orders is bought and paid for by the members beforehand, and comes to them as other articles of com merce. There is certainly no wrong in a man getting what he pays for or paying for what he gets, and as this is'the real fact of secret fra ternitics, who has the right to complain or impugn their motives? If any one desires or deserves these benefits he has only to pay his money to get them. There is no comparison whatever between a fraternal organization and a church, as a church could not be organized on their basis. It would not be a church, but a church composed of members of these fraternal orders, will be more liberal in contributions to the calls of charity than those without them. There are a cumber ot fraternal orders that are a blessing to socie ty and the general public. The best authorities agree that IMn is'nbbohiyi profit in' wfient, but that it improves the land on which it is 80\yp, // * t - I| this be true, let us have more wheat fields, more merry whistles of he brown-Winged “Bob White,”, more home-nvide.buscuits—in short, more joy and prosperity.

Msbe Georgia knows. Ask her,replies the Rome Tribune. Might be that A B could say something on that line. The ingratitude of New York City people is amazing. J, Pierpont Morgan gives 50,000 tons of coal to the poor in that city, aud some of the people are mean enough to ask how he gets it. * Riches seem to get revenge on their owners in the region of their stomach, and most ot our million- sues are paying the price of their wealth by eating malted milk and crackeis. Judge Maguon has returned to his perch in Washington. He the convenient jurist who finds any old kind of law that is needed justify imperialistic proceeding ot the war department. And now someone suggests that it was the vengeance of the Lord that wrecked the Birmingham Ala., church because the people were worshipping Booker Washington instead of Jesus Christ- However, we don't believe that the Lord is jealous of Booker.
