Thoughts For The Day
THE REPUBLICANS ARE SPLIT
There is no doubt ot there being a .serious split in
11 e republican ranks over the nomination of a candi-
te for the presidency next year. Already opposi-
® hac developed to President Coolidge in the per
il of-Senator Hiram Johnson. There are two fac-
“* in the republican party and ifcithcr are willing
et aside their views in favor of the other and from
lent indications the entrance of Senator Johnson
Bie race for the nomination to lead the republicans
1 brought on much uneasiness for the success'of the
party with the leaders. Shortly after takirnv un th»
” i he ( B . 0Ve , n i ment ' ‘‘ was severally "thought
Hthat I resident Coolidge would not have opposition for
ithe nomination to the office of president, but that
hope has gone a-glimmering and the chances are that
he will have very strong and organized opposition in
the convention- Senator Johnson is not a safe man
f He is eratic, bitter in his feelings towards the south
and an extreme partisan. President Coolidge is a
conservative, he would give to the nation an able ad
ministration of its affairs. However, from the pres-
l ent outlook a democrat will be elected—many of the
* 'conservative elements of the republican party pre-
: ferring a democrat to either of the proposed repub
lican candidates.
All flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man
as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and
the flower thereof falleth away.—1 Pet. 1:24.
■We make provisions for this life as if it were never
to have an end, and for the other life as though it
were never to have a beginning—Addison.
A CALL FOR HUMANITY’S SAKE
Three hundred soldier boys from all sections of the
south, some blind; some shell-shocked; some with lost
mentality; others suffering from serious wounds re
ceived .while in the service of their country fighting
for the preservation of Democracy and for the pro
tection of their nation and homes, are in the hospitals
in Augusta. A committee of ladies in this city-Jiave
undertaken to secure funds to be used for the pur-
cnase of remembrances to these boys on Thanksgiving
Dnv. It is a most worthy cause in which these ladies
arc' engaged and it is one which should appeal to ail
true and loyal Americans- It is little we can do for
these soldiers to show them our appreciation of what
they have done for us, giving the best there was in
them for our protection and many of them sacrificing
their ail insofar as their future is concerned. It
might have been beter for many of them if they had
fallen on Flanders’ Field and rested under the sod
where poppies bloom, but for some good reason the
One who knows best, spared them from the grave and
now they are returned to us as a living object of that
awful suffering and sacrifice which our boys ex
perienced during the trying days of the world war.
These soldiers are being cared for in a hospital in
Augusta. The committee of ladies here are endea v
oring to make Thanksgiving Day one to be remember
ed by them and to show to them that the loyalty and
devotion of our people for them is none the less than
it was during the days of the terrible strife which
tried men’s souls and tested every ounce of strength,
loyalty and red blood possessed by them. . It is a cull
for the disabled veterans. Will you Jje onfc to re
spond? If so, do it today, God will bless you and you
will have done your duty which you owe to the boys ,
-who wore the khaki and gave their life’s blood for*,
you and your country. s
A PUBLIC LIBRARY FOR ATHENS
_i' For many years the question of establishing a pub-
.' lie library has been under discussion and many plans
have been advanced whereby such an institution
might be secured for this city. However, no definite
dr concerted action has ever been taken on the part
r .of the people and the matter has been allowed to
* dHft along and ti^e result has been that the city is
without such a place where the public might go and
ijoy the benefits of the latest books, magazines and
orks of historical value. A library properly cqn-
-;ted is ar. educational institution in a Way which is
great value to any community. It affords oppor
tunities for the great mass of people who-are other
wise deprived of such privileges. Libraries are
usually founded by some patriotic citizen or organi
zation and maintained from the proceeds of a nominal,
fee charged for the usd of the hooka These plans,
however, do not in nil cases work satisfactorily and
the limited amount of funds received are not suffi
cient to properly support the operations of an up-to-
date and complete library- As a matter of fact, the
municipality should 'support such an. -institution
through taxation. It should be made a department 6f
the city and in the budget each year an ample appro
priation should be made for every expense in connec
tion with its conduct. , *|
!- Athens has a population of near.y twenty-five
thousand inhabitants and yet nut u place where a
citizen can go for a book or for iuiormation of'en of
much importance and the only place from wnich kuch "*
Uifmmation can be secured if through the agency of
ui hbrary. A municipal library is one of the city’s
jeoutest needs and it is hoped mat vne incom'r.g may-
ior and council will investigate and provide in some
'way for the establishment of a public library to be
>rted from the revenue of the city the same as
■departments of the government are now gup-

THE 0UTCA8T
I guess I'm a musical moron,
For somehow or other I find
Thiit classical stuff doesn’t score
on
My bourgeois end eomfnonplRoe
mind;
Beethoven and Mozart and most of
The masters don't thrill me a
bit;
It Isn’t a thing that I boast of.
But something I have to admit.
I’ve^tried to improve; J have lis
tened r
To concerts, and struggled to
learn *»
Why eyes of the audience glist

With pleasure. I failed to discern
Whatever it was that enchanted
Their spirit, and caused them tc
glow;
So now—I just take It for granted
stupid and never will know.
Yet when from the saxaphones
issue
The accents of Kern^ or Berlin,
find every fiber and tissue
Is Yngling in tune; I begin
To sway to the strango syncopa

Though classical music falls
flat.
What, YOU’RE in the same condi

Oh, well, let’s just leave it at
that!
