Both the compromisers and : die-hards tried to find a way of getting around #hat unpleasant truth, and the disaster of the Civil war was the result.. : . Today we are facing the fact that the nation cannot continue to exist half prosperous and half destitute, There is one way out and only one; to Provide jobs ut decent wages, to keep purchasing Power level with production. : .If we let ourselves get frightened by the ‘. experi- ~ ment we are making, or if we let rising prices fool S into the belief that times are going to correct ' themselves without our help, we shall be riding for B 8 A4ll just as cataclysmic as the one the nation took ? In President Roosevelt's remarks to the forest ” rmy there was a paragraph which ought to be . tacked up where ‘every citizen could keep his eyes .on it during the next year or so, ﬂ ‘hat paragraph reads as follows: ‘ ;,_m'mucll in/recent years large numbers of our ilation have) thought of success a 8 an oppor . tunity to gain woney with the least possible work. .It is time for ‘eich and 'every one of us 1o cast ~ @Way self-destroying, nation-destroying efforts to ~ Bet something for nothing and to appreciate that % itisfying rewards and safe rewards come only "f rough honest work.” . Here is one of those little observations to which ‘l4 iof us are ready to give lip service, but which 2,,. “arlo“not quite so ready to.put into practice in dally life. | § The stock market is boiling up toward the rim o )f the kettle these days, and a good part of its rise ;@‘ accgunted for solely by the desire to get _ #omrething for nothing. The man who bought ulg:: ed Clothespins at 13 last winter and - 80ld’ out yesterday at 98 may be a smart fish, but f-""‘x- has enrolled himself arnong the something-for -8 ~fmaz boys and any recovery that takes place . Will come in spite of him and not because of him. or that ‘man is a symptom of a national dis ‘ease; a digease that came upon us most virulently ng the gay twenties and which has had us flat ~on our backs for the last four years. _ln the old days the country’s admiration went to "its builders, 'its doers, its men who got things done ind made ‘;v{t,flpossible for their fellows to get things : mllgtd‘builders. the steel builders, the auto nagnates apd their hrethren may have been guided ¥ some cloudy ethics now and then and they may ave profited unduly 'occasionally—but at least they ive the country a definite return for their wealth. ‘A decade ago we started shifting our admiration 0 the clever lads who put up their booths at the €ross-roads and levied toll on passing commerce; N who ' made their fortunes by juggling ‘Stocks, who got rich not because they produced ‘something we needed but because they got in on '”{ ‘;"«mund floor and let the elevator carry them ‘_i less we can turn our admiration back to the iilders instead of the taiers, the recovery which 'f?*f in progress will do us precious little goo/. ~te ouncement from ‘Washington of the blanket _é?or ‘all American industry is in some ways 16 most encouraging thing that has happened in fhis country in a great many years. " Phat is not so much because it offers a new @rnce to wipe out thie depression as because it will enable: us.to uniteL emotionally, in' a way that !‘ ldom . possible except in war-time: > ~Th ¢ drive to get co-bperation in this. code ‘is to hé conducted just as the Liberty loan and draft act " drives were conducted during the war. And in that fact there is something extremely heart-warming. . ;i‘f.i xreat many people have remarked on the sin * fact that a nation usually is able to focus ‘ “ﬁﬂort and its emotioms on one point only in 1 of great danger. Destructive and frightful as - war !j,’i. it usually is the wonly thing that can make ] ﬁ ’Qle feel truly united, the only thing that can ‘make themn forget their differences, bury self-in est and work together in a common cause. "It has often been said that if only a people could Bt together on a peace-timee project with the spirit ;; displayed in time of war, it could surmount ‘@lmost any obstacle. ‘ " That is the chance that is open to us now. “WWe are being asked to submerge seltish interests for the common good; to be Americans first and gßelf-seeking individuals later; to stand wunited for the sake of those fellow-citizens who have not yet . had a fair break. - This brings us a great challenge and a great - opportunity. . It is a challenge because it will test our intelli fence, our patriotism and our endurance just as § Geeply and just as truly as any war-time emer - Eency ever did. * And it is an opportunity because it opens the Way to a new day in American history. ' _ Übpon the events of the next six months, proba bly, will depend the fate of our fight to escape from the depression. : S | |We can shape our future to suit ourselves; and | 4 we are as wise and brave as we like to believe, -We can pave the way bi o better, freer life. for L sve yone in* America.

RGOt s R e T ST 2 e o E e ROOSEVELT’S RESPONSIBILITIES No president in the history of this nation has been burdened with greater responsi bilities than those imposed upon President lßocsevelt. From the time he was inaugu ‘rated, he has not enjoved an idle moment up to the present hour. It has been just one thing after another, all of the great 'est immportance to the people of this nation. His reorganization plans were adopted by congress, and unusual powers were dele gated to the president. He has not shirk ed nor has he attempted to sidestep any of the responsibilities, but has assumed them, and in the even tenor of his way, has not only endeavored to carry them out, but he has done more than that—he has| caused the machinery which he has been given to function and in practically every' instance, his efforts have been rewarded with success. ] ' In days gone by, presidents have failed to meet the responsibilities of the office; physical ability has had much to do with ‘the failures experienced by past presi dents. Taft was broken in health before !he retired; Theodore Roosevelt carried 'with him from office, a broken down body which resulted in hastening the end; Pres ident Wilson did hold out through his two terms, but on leaving the office, the best of his body and mind was worn, fatigued 'and exhausted. The same might be said of iPresident Harding, but Franklin Roose velt seems to possess an iron constitution and a will and determination that has never been equaled before by any man oc cupying the presidential chair. | It is the hope of the people of this na tion that he will be spared.and retain good health throughout the seige of d’utiesl that have been imposed upon him during these uhusual times through which the nation is passing. It is believed that the worst is over, but even at that, President Roosevelt has a long program to complete before he can rest on his oars and feel that the people of his nation have been relieved. | The Industrial and the Recovery Acts must be completed and functioning before President Roosevelt can release his hold on thd steering wheel of the nation’s ship. It is in the making now, and the least bob ble might upset the plans that have been put in operation for the relief of the un employed and for the ‘“forgotten man.” This is a time when every citizen of this nation sheuld bear down and see to it thati their cooperation is not only given, laying aside all political and personal animosities‘ and work to the end of relieving the needyi and otherwise aiding in the rehabilitation| of adverse business conditions that have been visited upon the people of this coun-‘ try. REVOLTING, IF TRUE Rattlesnake meat is said to be one of the most highly prized delicasies among the “bon tons” in fashionable cases, cabarets and hotels, all of which may be true, but if the truth were known, these places of exclusiveness would soon be closed for the lack of patronage. However, according to the Fitgerald Herald, rattlesnake meat is prized and rated along with the meat of canary birds. Enumerating the value of the rattlesnake a 8 a commercial product and the many usages to which the reptile is utilized for profit, the Herald, says: ! ‘ “Guests who find themselves unable to identify the ingredients of strange but de licious canapes had better not press too ;hand for an explanation unless they arg \prepared to hear the news that they have been eating rattlesnake meat. Packing that comestible for the market happens to be one of the occupations which has been thriving in recent days o* uncertainty and is cotinuing to thrive. \ “A wholesale grocer calls it one of the fastest growing industries in Florida right now. One packer hires trappers on com mission. Trapping the snakes is a’ job re quiring skill. Fright or shock at the time of capture has a detrimental effect on the meat, so the rattlers must be taken with great care. The meat is usually packed in four-ounce ting which retails at $1.25, defi nitely putting the product in the luxury class. “Mr. Rattlesnake has other commercial uses. The skin is' cured for leather for pocketbooks, the teeth are used in making buttons, rings, necklaces, ete.: the bones go into fertilizer, and the venom is used in anti-toxins., How’s that for getting even with man’s ancient enemy, the ser pent?’”’ All of which may be true, but for our personal use, we would prefer the meat of a “skunk”” ’to that of a rattlesnake. A COMMENDABLE MOVEMENT The citizens of Crawford, Georgia, have undertaken a most worthy movement in connection with perpetuating the memory of William H. Crawford, one of this state’s most illustrious sons, by preserving his" ?ome and grave near the town of Craw ord . % l' The home and grave of this great Geor gian have been neglected for many years. The grave is unkept and the large marble slab that covers the concrete wall around the grave has cracked and tumbled, partly to the ground, from the wear of ages and lack of upkeep. However, that condition will no longer exist. A charter has been applied for and the Crawford Memorial Association will be organized. Interested parties living in Atlanta and in Oglethorpe county, will see to it that the home place and grave will be repaired and proper at tention given to protect these places in the future. - William H, Crawford was a giant in in tellect and in his day and time he was an 'outstanding American.

Not Much of Anything BY HUGH ROWE fz_—m ,' “When Ladies Meet,” a play . of unusual interest—a IMetro f Goldwyn - Mayer's production | will be presented at the l Palace theatre for two days ~ —Thursday and Friday of this - week. ¢ The cast is made up ¢f some of the leading stars in fildom—Ann Harding and Robert Montgomery playing the stellar roles of Clare and Jimmy, supported by unus- ually clever performers, among them being Alice Brady and Frank Morgan. The author of the play is Rachel Croth(-rs, and *has proved to be one of the big hits on Eroadway. The" version is com plete in its entirety, elaborately costumed and staged under the drection of Harry Beaumont, noted director of film productions, There ‘s no form of enter tainment or amusement that . is more wholesome and re freshing to the mind and body than highclase pictures, Such pictures as “When Ladies ’ Meet” chould be seen by every 1 one. ~ The programs that are being presented at the Palace deserve the patronage of the public. Few, if any of the playhouses in the country offer to their patrons at tractions that equal those Seen here. All of the hig pictures are veought to Athens .nany or them first runs. It is, indeed, a treat to have brought tc our doors the big Ercadway successes and at prices much cheaper than those chagged in the larger cities. “When Ladies Meet” is an example of the chars acter of productions shown‘fat.{:)}& Palace theater. s As an outline of this play, 5“ for the information of theater goers, a short synopsis is giv-' . en in this column.

Jimmie, meanwhile has deceyed . Woodraff away to the cily,'!eaflmg"w (ﬁe and Mary to spend ecnsiderable time in each other's company.’ “Mary falls into the trap set hy Jimmie and starts to tell Clare all about the problems of the two! women in her boow and -of her. impencing affair with Ler pub-: licher. Clare is dismayed to dig# cover that Mary is the current “other woman” in her life. Adroit ly she shows Mary how foclish she weuld be to surrender -to K Wood ruff in the belief that such an at tachment would endure. “Woodruff returns and finds, instead of the romantic night he visioned, his wife and Mary sob-. bing in each cother's arms with Jimmie smiling in triumph. There is a violent scene in which the publisher learns shat the scorn of two women is far worse than one. He is sent away in distress, while Jimmie picks up Mary, thoroughly repentant and folds her in his protective arms.” y Legitimate plays,. comedy and dramas, presented in per son on local stages, have pass ed. No more will these oid time productions he seen as of yore, The cost of production, railroad fare, hetel bills and other expen ses has made it unprofitabie 1o managers and promoters. The mo- Vietone and talking pictures have supplanted ‘the “‘in person” per formances in that the same perfor< mers can be seen and heard, as in life, for a nominal admission charge, where as the road produc tions, for no better ' performance would charge an admission of twe o three @ollars for what can be: seen for less: than' a dollar per person. Picture producing is' a wonderful invention. It has made amusements in reach of all, the pocr as well as the rich. All are on a level when it comes to buy ing entertainment.

Crawford, mystery man of the ‘Chicago and New Orleans mar kets whom the Chicago Board of Trade suspended for “inability to meet obligations” as a practicing physician, Crawford came here before the World war rrom Leon county, Florida, and built up a . practice as an eye, ear, nose and throat 'specialist., He left here to prac sice in Jacksonville, Fla.,, and later in New Orleans. It was in New Orleans that Crawford began his market trad ing which developed to a point where Chicago newspapers said talk on LaSalle street was that a speculative pyramid that might -have rivaled America’s greatest ‘fortune collapsed when the Craw ford firm was suspended. The books of the Crawford firm were being audited and he did not appear at his office Monday. Crawford married Miss Erma ‘Gray of Faceville in this county and has relatives in several coun ‘ties in this section. ‘ The Chicago Daily News said Crawford was the man Secretaryl Wallace of the Department of Agriculture referred to as being “long” on 13,000,000 bushels of corn last week when the commod ity markets broke.
