Truth is a good dog; but beware of barking too close to the heels of an error, lest you get your brains kicked out.—Coleridge. SUGGESTIONS OF AN ATHENS MAN , The suggestion of Mr. James H. Dozier that Thanksgiving Day should bo changed to November 11 -7-Armistice Day and to make of Armistice Day a general Thanksgiving Day has met with much favor able comment t.lroughout the state with both the press and public. It was Mr. Dozier who first con ceived the idea of designating November 11th, as Armistice Day and through the Associated Press, this suggestion was broadcasted throughout the nation. There is no good reason why this should not be done and it is believed that at the convening of con gress in December that some action will be taken on the suggestion. It is fit and proper that we • should have a day set aside for giving thanks to the All-Wise Being and it is right and mete that we should cele brate in a proper manner Armistic Day which is the most important day of the year to not only America, but practically to the whole world- The Banner-Herald hope»that congress will take cognizance of the suggestion as made by Mr. Dozier and that a measure declaring the combining of these days be hereafter designated as a day of thanksgiv ing and celebration of the greatest victory the world has ever known in war. ' . HOHENZOLLERN MONARCHY UNFORTUNATE ,\ The wave which seems to be spreading over Ger many for the restoration of the Hohepzollem mon archy in that country is extremely unfortunate for that nation and its people. Evidently there is a large percentage of the German people who deaire the change and who favor returning to the former gov- eminent under the Emperor who was responsible more than any one else for the world war. These people are loyal to him and to his policies, but we can not believe that the great masses of the German ^people would be willing to go back to the old form of government and under the Kaiser who caused them -the sacrifice of so much man-power and the losses ‘their ‘worldly possessions- The leaders of the ■archistic revolution are striving to restore the h of their former idol, and to him their devotion ■ loyalty is absolute, but in doing so they will find that his restoration will mean another outbreak of war which may lead to even greater suffering than « was experienced during the last one. It can not be expected of France and England and some of the smaller nations to agree to the return of the man who was responsible for their great sufferings, loss of life and demoralization of all commercial affairs of their nations. It will stir a feeling which will en gender more bitter strife than existed before, and should America be drawn into the unpleasantness there is no telling what would become of Germany. To say the least, the leaders of the revolution should be conservative and weigh well their acts be fore executing them and flaunting into the face of the nations of the world recognition of the man who brought on the greatest and most wicked war the world has ever known. , the sa ^jf the i|OTpi'-- lc Berton Braley’s Daily Poems PLAYMATES We played and fought together When wo were kids of ten Two birdlings of a feather, We were true buddies then.

A SPLENDID ORDINANCE - At the last meeting of the city council an ordinance was passed which will mean much for the protection of the merchants from the itinerant salesman- For many years there has been an army of salesmen vis iting Athens taking orders for suits, shirts, shoes and possibly other articles of merchandise which inter- - fered with the business of the local concerns and E fruiQ-jsrhlch the city received no revenue—the sales men being protected under the Inter-State Commerce law! The new ordinance provides a specific tax on places of business renting or allowing anyone to oc cupy a portion or a place in their store for the pur pose of taking orders for any character of merchan dise. For many years there has been efforts made to pro hibit this class of outside solicitors from entering the commercial field of Athens and taking from the com munity a business which rightly belonged to the merchants of Athens; it was a/knotty , problem to ' solve, but under the new ordinance this line of busi ness will be protected unless the local concerns are willing to pay the tax imposed for thg privilege of allowing the outsider to sell his stocks in competition to the local merchant. ' The ordinance has been passed upon by some of the best lawyers in the state and it is'considered incon- testibie and will bear the scrutiny of the highest, courts in tho land. It is indeed fortunate that an or dinance of this kind has been worked out as the local merchants have been imposed upon for these years by the itinerant who goes from place to place offer ing his goods at prices which are caicuated to under sell, but of no better quality than that which is sold by the home merchant. The members of the city council are to be congratu lated on giving to our merchants that protection to which they are entitled and which will help to iff crease the business in every line of commerce affect ed by the itinerant salesman.
