TOOK BANKSTON WEARS . *
FLOWERS AND ASMILE
Trox Bankston and Volney Wil
liams hare gone back to their scis
sors and paste-pots. Good fellows,
both of ’em, tint “Fanner Jim" has
played the game before. Volney has
not issued a statement yet, but Trox
was in Atlanta yesterday morning
wearing a red carnation and plenty of
smiles. He pushed the’ following copy
out of a typewriter in a jiffy, and it
has the true Bankston ring:
“It seems that I was mistaken
about the name of the man who would
sueceedtJudge Hillyer for railroad
commissioner, but I was not in error
about the one who wanted to. The
scarcity j>t votes throughout the state
brought about my defeat, but I am
not going to wear any mourning over
the result; Red carnations are more
becoming to my complexion and indi
cative of my feelings.* For the thous
ands of votes which I received
throughout the state, I am highly ap
preciative; and for those who voted
against me I shall never entertain
anything but the kindest feelings. I
love all Georgians, especially the la
dies; and I am subject to command
at any an$ all times. The splendid
tribute Georgians paid in loyalty to
President Wilson softens the shad
owy clouds of defeat, and , with the
exception of today, registration day,
it was one of the greatest days in
the history of this grand old state.”

The church at Ebeneser has called
Rev. J. M. Kelly for another year.
Rev. Frank Culpepper preached for
ut at Ebenexer Sunday thie 22nd, rep
resenting the Munford Orphans’
Home.
The Dublin man who has resigned
his nomination as state senator to op
pose W. J. Harris for United Stetes
Senate because of the agitation over
the cotton price-fixing has unwitting
ly done a very splendid thing in' his
fanatic attempt to stage a sensa
tional political stunt, he has at least
relieved his constituents of a sena
torial Incumbent, who is not vforthy
the confidence they have imposed ia
him. They should be very grateful for
his resignation and certainly his ad
vent into the greater field will have
no significance.

ALL TOGETHER, AGAIN
'The Fourth Liberty Loan cam
paign is before us. Immediately be
fore us, too. It looms ur into our
vision—a portentious tangible essen
tial thing that staggers us perhaps
for a moment because of its propor
tion, but at the same time grips us
with a sense of responsibility for its
success. "
On first thought, and it is well to
weigh carefully every existing condi
tion that will affect the undertaking,
either for or ogninst its success, it
would seem dn impossible task, and
there are certain conditions peculiarly
local that justify tho existence of
doubtful apprehension on the part of
those who have assumed the responsi
bility of prosecuting tho task. How
ever, these various obstacles, real
though they are, do not form an im
pregnable bulwark and tho loyal folk
of Dooly will find a ymy to go through
the line or over the top.
We cannot do otherwise. Our boys
•n the other side are laying their'
mostp rccious possission—their lives
on the sacrificial altar, can we with
hold our material possessions when
they are giving their all?
American fighting men have won
fame on the western front by their
whole henrted, absolute abandon of
every purpose savo that of victory
ever the enemy, the following illus
trates the sort of spirit that domi
nates Americana in the fight:
General Pershing has been compell
ed to designate a new offense against
the law of soldiers. This offense is
“desertion to the front.” It is char
acteristic of the spirit of the Ameii
can army—the American nation in
arms—that this addition to the mill
tary regulations should have been
found necessary. Hen pdt to work
with pick, transit, rod and shovel
back of the firing line were found to
be deserting. The intelligence de
partment after looking into this ap
parent revelation of moral obligntty,
discovered that these men were de
serting to the ffont; that they had
droppd the Implements of engineer
ing and labor for the rifle, the hand
grenade and the bayonet in the
trenches. “Desertion to the front” is
good. It is American. It reveals the
American will to victory more clearly
Run- any event or incident since we
went into war.
Are not those men who are serving
so gloriously bone of our bone and
blood of our blood? Can we falter
when they are advancing with such
ssagnificent courage. In the campaign
before us let us follow the example
ef these brave men and “desert to the
front” irrespective of orders, let us
leave off plodding in the rear of the
line and come as a unit to the front
for a brilliant stroke that will result
in victory for Dooly in the coming
campaign. I
