We ought never to sport with pain and distress in any of our amusements, or treat even the mean est insect with wanton cruelty.—Blair. THE CARNIVAL HAS COMMAND GONE Athens has closed a week of carnival and street shows. If the morals of the community have been improved and the city’s treasury embellished from their stay with tax money which was due the city, for licenses, good and well, but in our opinion there has been no profit to the community resulting from the visit of this aggregation. That Athens people do not desire such attractions Has been shown by the action of civic bodies, educa tional institutions and churches. It was indeed un fortunate that the mayor and council granted free licenses and use of the streets. It would have been far better arid legal if they had required the lawful collection of: taxes and forced them to exhibit on some lot on the outskirts of the city. However, we all make mistakes and we are prone to do wrong, but when it comes home to us as strong as this case has to the mayor and council, we hope that when application is made again for such an attraction that the authorities will see to it that these traveling organizations be required tt) pay the specific taX as fixed by ordinance anfl prohibit them from blocking our streets and demoralizing the business district of the city- i * | extinct. There »«, a time, at thh season of the year, vdien | atreeta. were lined with Breves of jturkeya, brought here from the uiounta'M and from Tennessee along with Quantities ot .chestnuts, apples, and cabbage galore and othcr\jiecessary lgredienta t( be taken before the meal. Those were good old days, but there 1, such shortage now In all of these necessities they have grown to be luxurlta and are held at a pre mium—and largely on accou it of Mr. Volitead. Walter Forbea, general sec retary of the Y. M. C. A., hat completed hla twenty-fourth year In the service of thla or- ganlxition—nearly a quarter of t century. . And yet he la etill a yotng and vlgoroua man and one who Is from a regular factory. Mrs Bryant kindly showed u, through the exhibits anil explained m. workings of her club girls. Every cltlsen of Clarke and other coun ties hs well should make It con- venlknt to come to Athens this week and Inspect thle exhibit, would be a source of pride and on Inspiration to other young giris. And It opens a new field of enter prise for the girls on our farme, for they can find a profitable market or ull of the products. w« send . abroad every ydsr hundreds of thousands of dollars tor such products ttnd they are not equal to tohes on exhibition by Clarke county dub girls. Why cannot this money be kept at home find' distributed among the glrla living on the farmer i -Takf grape Juice, for Instance and consider the amount aold at soft drink fountain- In Athena thla community. Thla man is an " ‘ asset to Athens and. during these years he has striven to build and make for the commur,'ty a tetter condition and a better cUiienshlp. He baa succeeded and the laurela ot success rest upon him and en courage him for a greater service n the future. .When he first came to Athens he met with many f>b staclcs. Y. M. C. A. work tf&s not In the favor of the general public as It Is now, (the present condition being duo in a great measure to bis efforts) yet he labored and tolled both night and day and burned the.bridges behind' him as he marched forward in the ser vice of his Master to reach a happy culmination of the one object In view—and that object has been the building ot u greater-Y. M. c. A., and the moulding of the char acter* of the young boys for the dtixena ot tomorrow. Hla record juts 'been (made—he le crowned with auccess-<lils efforts will be continued and a greater and better organliak’on will be the result. TRADE MONTH CONTINUES SUCCESSFUL Saturday was one of the biggest sales days yet held during Trade Month. All the merchants offered special bargains and purchasers from this entire sec tion thronged the stores .throughout the day. More cash money has been in circulation since the inaugu ration of thege sales than has been in Athens in a number of years which is positive proof of better times and a rapid recovery to normalcy. Much cotton is being sold and the money spent and deposited in the banks. The warehouse receipts nhow a large increase in cotton storage and those who are holding their cotton are-well prepared to tide over the year from their by-products, vegetables, poultry, milk, butter and hogs. The farmers in this section have learned to live at home and practi cally every one of them are in good W— ;:nstanoes : nd prepared for another year without being forced to borrow from the banks or to make purchases on credit- It is an encouraging sign and one which is the forerunner of prosperity, stable and sound condi tions and an absolute recovery from the period of depression our people have suffered for the past three years. . _ CHRISTMAS SEALS FOR SALE The local organization charged with the sale of Christmas seals are making preparations for the in auguration of the sale to be commenced at an early date. This work is one most commendable and sh* uld receive the support and encouragement of ail citizen!-. Every dollar received from the sale go to the fund for the benefit of the tubercular sufferers. Last year the sales here were sufficient to enable the local organization to employ a nurse for the un fortunate in this community- It is highly import ant that this nuAe be retained permanently for thia work in the county. In order to do so, the sales must come up to those of last year and even increase as there are so many expenses attached to the conduct of anti-tubercular treatment, every dollar realized from the sales can be used to advantage and for the/ relief of suffering humanity. Every letter, Christmas card and package and ev ery piece of mail sent out from business houses and individuals should carry with It a Christmas seal. Remember the cause for which the seals are being cold and do not forget to buy seals and use them on all occasions and for all mail matter deposited in the post office. Th«;cause is deserving; it is for the relief of those stricken with that dreadful disease—Tuberculosis. WW titq people of Athens fail to rally to the call? Wp do not believe that they will- Monday is circus day in Athens. The little tots as well as the grown ups will be making their way to town and those in town will be making their way to .the show grounds. Nothing in the amusement line takes the place of the circus, the animals and the red lemonade. It is a popular amusement and strict ly an American entertainment just as baseball is in sports.

We like the shekels well enough And so, in Spite of all their bluff, Do other nations. But for the poet’s singing line, For music, painting and design We, too, possess some very fine Appreciations. Commercial? That we can’t deny. And thaV undoubtedly. Is why These uncommercial peoples vie To tap our coffer. And artists, singers, actors come Fromo everywhere In Christendom Because we’ll pay the largest sum * For what they offer!

You’ve got a hunch, fair, generous, kind. Idealistic! So, though to knock Is quite the ■tyle, I choose to wave the flag awhile! Representatives tVimberly and Riley are trying to adjourn the legislature. What is the matter with these fellows, anyhow? They should know that the legislators are waiting for Santa Claus' time to come before adjourning- Jsl .v . Flesh/ We have found our dog and peace and happiness reigns again in the household. Did * you ever own a dog? If you have not. you cannot appreciate the attachment which springs up be- twee the do? and the children. The dog soon “grows” Into the lives of the children as one of the mem bers of the family and when lost, strayed, stolen or dead there Is mourning In the household which bs’ngs on sleepless nights and al most nervous prostration. Thurs day evening Dr. E. L. Hill read Ihe notice of the lost dog and phoned to 163 the news that he had seen the missing Airdale In his yard that afternoon. That was glorious news to the proud owner of the pup. The next mqrnlng Dr. Hill mustered his.force of serv ants and had them commence a search for the much-wanted dog.
