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- d. . 1 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 ened 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 tion Though classical music falls flat.
