THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1918 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.” —Atlanta Constitution. *v 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.

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 Bonds buy food for soldiers. Buy Liberty Bonds. Money means munitions. Buy Lib erty Bonds. Bonds build tanks. Buy Liberty Bonds. Bonds build airplanes. Buy Liber ty Bonds. Liberty Bonds or liberty bound, which will you have it? Buy Bonds and back the guaa that hit the Huns. Bonds put the dam in Potsdam. Them ore bonds the fewer casual.
