THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY
v.
Judge not according to appearance.—John 7:24.
Weeds grow sometimes very much like flowers.—
Paxton Hood.
. “PUSSYFOOTERS” ARE EVERYWHERE.
; The term “pussyfooting” is generally applied to
qjfflcQ seekers or to those supporting this or that can-
diate for. one office or another. However, the term
Uitieina used in a broader field and its application is
imf strictly confined to politics or noltical campaigns.
The Thomasvillc Times-Enterprise analyzes the
njdajllng of the term in a different and broader,man-
nw'than it is usually applied. Discussing “pussy-
footers,”- the Times-Enterprise, says:
“There are' Borne pussyfocters everywhere, in any
place .and among all classes. We just make up our
mmdb to take them with the proper amount of con-
sideration, which is little less than nothing, and they
go right on.
‘ "Rumors are s»"’P'>'i — "'•’lout foundation on any
subject and in any emergency. There are some peo
ple'so indelibly opposed to truth and candor in the
face of a possible loss, political or otherwise, that th"-
slfif around and say something under cover that, they
think will affect the ideas of some ignorant or poorly
informed man.
“And the sad part of it is that ‘hese things do have
their influence. Some of the most absurd reports arc
circulated at times and naturally you think that an
intelligent man would pay no attention to them. Still
they do and it goes on and on in ever increasing
waves until in the minds of many it becomes a reality.
> “This applies to politics as well as attacks on char
acter, womanhood, citizenship. Nothing seems to bo
immune, even the most sacred relationships. It is so
nauseous to an honorable man that he cannot stom
ach the idea and it is for this and similar reasons
zjj&t today' so few of our really able und capable
men will offer for any political office.” ,
We thoroughly concur in the views expressed by
the Times-Enterprise as to the character of the
“pussyfooter.” Such men or women are scandal
farriers and are a menace to their communities and
are character destroyers. All communities are af
flicted with “pupsyfooters.” They dispense the germs
of character-poison in a whispering and confidential
manner until the reports take on proportions that are
actually acepted as truthful and many an innocent
citizen has suffered from these unscrupulous "pussv-
footers” who have no aim or object In life, except
that, of destroying character.
■•Pussy-footing” is no pow innovation; it has been
here all the time; whispering slander carriers fatten
on gossip of a derogatory character to their fellow-
man. To the mongrel gossiper, no one is immune;
- it is n disease brought on by the germs of iniquity
horn in the oharacter of the “pussyfooter."
PREJUDICE AGAINST THOSE WHO LOVE TO
PLAY.
Over in Atlanta the city recorder hns assessed a
fine of $50.00 on a golfer because he invaded the
lawn of a property owner near a gojf course in search
of a ball that was probably sliced off the course. The
recorder was only carrying out a city ordinance, but
the individual who'made the case was more than
likely prompted by prejudice against someone who
irritated him because he sought a bit of harmless rec-
;■ reation In play. There are lots of people that way.
They report,littlo boys for nlnving ball In the street
when no other place is afforded and they want to
shove the same tots off tho sidewalk if they happen
to lie met on a bicycle sr skates.. i,
’ Golfers should he the last pcbple pn earth to de
face a lawn knowing good and well how hard it is
» grow »rnw and Tthe mat. who held the player
until police arrived had helped him find his ball and
chatted good naturedly. with him, he probably could
have got a few gcod dots on his lawn's upkeep and I
i at the same time lost a lot of his grouch.
P Lot’s of people’s disposition, off the golf course
f pit'least, Would be helped, if they’d take up the game.
l.j * THERE IS NOTHING IMPOSSIBLE.
Since the invention of the moving sound pictures,
we are prepared to accept any prediction that mav be
made as to what, the future will bring forth in the
wav of new inventions. At a recent business con
ference, held by A{r. Babson, “horizontal elevators”
ami ' side-stepping automobiles”- were forecasted for
early invention. While these forecast may sound un
reasonable and radical in its departure from tho
jWMSnt usages cf these conveniences, yet there are
1 ho more impossible than were the talking pictures
and radio were supposed to be a, decade ago.
" Speaking of the proposed inventions. Mr. Babson
said: “It is not impossible that the cars of the fu-
- tiire will be,designed to run sidewise as well as for
ward and backward. The more intense parking prob-
J lem of the future will put a premium upon the abll-
• iqHjf « car to maneuver.” At the present time park-
1 ing concessions are at a premium, especially in the
f larger cities. We recall in Atlanta, a short time ago,
itpsquired riding several miles and many minutes for
th« ; driver to find a parking place for the car, in
• which we were a passenger. Conditions will bring
ouf ah invention that will solve the parking problem
f just as so many other intricate conditions have been
solved by the ingenuity of man.
P? Governor A1 Smith, on his western tour, gave the
[V republicans something to think about. Reports from
W.' that section of the country, indicate that a number or
; former republican states will be found in the demo
cratic column after the November election.
’~ And now the W. C. T, U., in Maine, have met and
r resoluted against the action of the government in.

Well, Crystal,” George grin

Crystal had to make a qulqk
choice of being pathetic and wist
ful—ono of her beat expressions—
or of being gaily nonchalant. She
chose the latter. “But George,
dear!” she laughed, tucking her
head to one aide and fluttennz
her lashes at him, “may it,not be

George’s laughter roared out.

“Famous or—notorionis?” Crys

the waiter stood at George’s el
bow, and there was no immediate
opportunity for him to answer.
