Harding; Calvin Cool- idge, our new president, has set about formulating plans and policies for the administration of the af fairs of the greatest nation in the world. President Coolidge is an able man; conservative in thought and policies he is thoroughly capable of taking up the responsibilities laid down by President Harding and carrying on the policies of the republican party with out interruption. , , President Calvin Coolidge sprang into prominence while governor of Massachusetts. The police of Bos ton organized a union and went on a strike. The city became demoralized and lawlessness and crime ran riot He declared the city under martial law and caused the entire force to he removed andRhe elec tion of an entirely new police force. The action re quired backbone and manliness, but it was for the good of the city and state, and his firmness brought ' to him the commendation of both republicans and democrats. His course rave the City of Boston from it: rioting, lawlessness and crock rule and when his ■ - name was suggested for the nomination for vice- .president, it was received in accord by all factions , and made unamious. While he is succeeding to the presidency, he will find great problems confronting him and it is gratify ing that there is ready for service a man _ who has ; proved his ability to grasp situations quickly and - make decisions that arc based on fundamentals.

One of Those Long-Winded Visitors the ’Twas just a silly little song, But here and there amid throng Youth looked at youth with warm ing eyes, And found a new beauty in the skies And sensed in music and in words The joyousness of mating birds; And old men, tenderly beguiled, Remembered, sighed—and gently niled.

UNIQUE AND ORIGINAL ORGANIZATION The woolen of Romo have organized a “University Women’s Club”; its purpose to be for the accommoda tion of a group of community demonstration club girls who desire to attend high school. Under the pian the girls will reside together under the chapron- age'of the county home demonstration agent, making a home for themselves while attending school and in addition they will receive practical training in homo .economics, even to the extent of household financ ing and management. The plan is most appealing and contains a purpose "which will bring to the girls of that communty a ben efit they would hot otherwise be able to receive un- , der ordinary conditions. The women of that city have blazed the way for the women in this state to follow aiid organize in every county in the state a similar club for the benefit of the girls in the respec tive sections. There is an unusual opportunity here for greater work by our women. Athens is the fountain head of learning for the state; here girls from every county in Georgia attend our schools and colleges. Such n cub. could enter an unoccupied field as an auxiliary to the educational institutions in aiding to create a home life and atmosphere for the girls who are seek ing an education and spending practically the entire year in our midst. • It is hoped that the members of the woman s club or some civic organization here will interest them selves in the formation of a “University Club” or a club with the purpose of organizing the girls of this state into groups with some capable woman as chape rone who can not only help them and aid in bring ing them together socially, but teach them.the sub stantial things of life'from ah economic standpoint.

Athens has a progressive citienship who believes in progress and growth of the community. They are willing to vote bends for any improvement for the good of Athens and they will vote for a $50,000 bond issue for this purpose. It would not be just to the tax payers to undertake such an expensive improvement to be paid for from the city treasury out of advalorem taxes. Permanent improvements of this character should always be paid through bond issues handed down to posterity. A bond issue would not work a hardship on the present nor the future generations, but all would be served and benefited from the im provement v It is to be hoped that the mayor and council will give serious thought and consideration to the mat ter and authorize an election which will submit the propositoin to the people for them to accept or reject. That is the fair way of bringing about such improve ments and a majority of the people are then given an oppeyrtuntiy to express their wishes and desires. The increased traffic from Green, Morgan, Oconee and a part of Walton counties traverses this high way down Milledge to Hill street and to the heart of the business district The:? two main highways or street* have become crowded and dangerous to life ami property. It is a duty the city officials owe to the public to provide for the paving of Broad street ,' in order that this congestion may be relieved. We urge the mayor and council to call a bond eloc- .lion for this purpose thereby giving the people of Athens an opportunity to express themselves either in ssaiHtldldlllHUiAyHIiaiiailifaMiHHnBa Cures Malaria, Chills and 11 Fever, Dengue or Bilious 1 Fever.

Langley, represent** tive of Floyd county, has proven himself to be worthy of leadership and his position on many matters of importance before the legislature has stamped him as the equal of statesmen of tho “old school” who have made his tory for this state. Floyd county is indeed fortunate In having him as its representative and through his efforts, thnt county has been put on the map and the people of the state have recognized that thoy have In Mr. Langley a man of ability, resourcefulness and the firmness of character to accom plish things. The suggestion of making Dougherty .street a one-way street. Has met with the gen eral approval of the pub lic. A lady writes to roe and urges that the agitation be kept up until the mayor and council passes an ordinance designating this street as such. She writes: “It will he too late to act after some one hns paid the toll of “dead man’s” curve with their life.” 8he is right, It Is too lafe to insure the house after It is burned and it does no good to lock the stable after the horse has been stolen. One-way streets, where congestion of traffic occurs, is highly Impor tant In all cities for the safety and protection of the public. It is ob ligatory t<y the mayor and council to order that Dougherty .street be madtra one-way street.
