Hne thing the fighting in Spain ought to accom

ple who have been assuring us that airplanes will‘
debtmy whole citieg overnight in the next war, |
No reader of the popular magazines or the daily
At their most modest, they tell us how one fleet
flAt their most modest, they tell us how noe fleet
of; bombers could reduce Paris, London, Berlin or
Néw York to a wasteland in one visit. lln their more
robust form they go on to describe the gas bombs
sueh planes could drop; they picture a citywide
blanket of poison gas seeping up through houses and
office buildings until the entire population has been
killed.
&m ys 4t is “one fleet of bombers,” Detailg are
supplied with convincing fervor. A good bombing
plerfé'can carry at least a ton of explosives; a ton
of ¥ hest explosives has such-and-such destructive
pofiver. Multiply this power by 40 or 50, or what
evpr number of planes Yyou arbitrarily assign to
volir imaginary bombing beet, and you have the city
dgltroyed in one visit,
But somehow it doesn't seem to be working out
th;t way in the laboratory at Madrid,
hose bombings have been desructive, crue}, and
defiolatlng enough to have been planned by the apo
ca.iypuc rider on the pale horse, heaven knows. They
hage caused enough plain, unvarnished human mis
€ to make the angels weep. 3
l'§m they haven't destroyed Madrid in one raid, or
ingtwo dozen raids; they haven’t come recognizably
clgse to doing half the things which the outspoken
Dx;;;)onents of - aerial warfare haye said bombings
frem the air would surely do, ; §
The Spanish rebels do not, of course, command
alf fleets so large and so modern as the great mili
tagy powebs command, But the number of their
planeseis far from contemptible, The machines are
uxi-tfi;’iyab@ znd are flown by skilled pilots; the bombs
they carry are as modern and as destructive as any
int existence.
'Added to that is the sotorious fact that, during
lb;e first of the bowmbings, the Madrid defenses
aguinst air attacks were almost non-existent, It
w':zkus several days before the government could put
and defending planes at all into the air; to this day
the anti-aircraft batteries are manned by untrained
mg\mamen, e £ : ‘
The airmen, in other words, practically had carte
blanche to go ahead and prove that the air arm is
aé potent as they have been saying it is.
And Madrid is not destroyed yet. It has suffered
fearfully, but it is still standing. A foftnight of
rglds has been unable to do what one fleet of bomb
91!‘ was supposed to be capable of doing,
fit looks very much as if the airmen had been over
st&tmg their case.
The new constitution of the Soviet Union is a
g&é‘,";-demucmuc document. It wili give the Rus
s%uis ‘democracy—if the fine theories which it em
bgies are allowed to be translated into actual prac
tite.
Whether that is to be the case is something that
only time can tell, The ouside world, having looked
at nearly two decades of complete repression in
ssia, doubtless will be pardoned for adopting a
whit-and-see attitude,
;When some Russian has campaigned up and down
amd across the land on a wipe-out-communism
pfogram, and has done it without being liquidated
by the OGPU, it will be time to announce definitely
that Russia has achieved a real democracy.
'One thing these: post-war years have taught all of
ug is }]@t a fine paper constitution is not enough
to: create a democracy, Democmcy is something that
flGéWs naturally from the spirit of governors and gov
erned, If the Russians have created such a spirit
within the tight framework of an autocracy, the
western world will be greatly pleased—and not »
surprised.

" THE STONE MOUNTAIN ROUTE
One of the most important trunk high
ways in the South' is from Memphis, Ten
nessee via Atlanta, Stone Mountain, Mon-
Iroe, Athens and on to Augusta, It is
iknown as State Route No. 10 on U. S.
‘Route No. 76. 1t is paved all the way
from Memphis to Augusta, with the ex
ception of fifteen miles between Monroe
iand Athens. This fifteen miles has been
graded and drained with the exception of
a short distance near the bridge of Ca
rithers Mill. The project is now before
the members of the State Highway De
partment, and it is expected that a con
tract for this work will be let within a
short time. However, it is necessary for
the people, not only along this route to
take an active interest in urging the mem
bers of the highway board to act on let
ting the contract, but it is of vital impor-l
tance and interest to the people of Athens
and Clarke county. The section lying be
tween Athens and Monroe, is one of the
best trading sections in the Athens terri-.
tory. Practically all of these people do
their trading and transaction of other|
business here. Besides, this route is of|
national importance, not only to Georgi
ans and the people of the South, but to
the people of the nation on account of the
Stone Mountain Memorial to the Confed-l
eracy. This mountain is one of the won-l
ders of the world, and has attracted na
tion-wide attention of tourists and visitors!
from all parts of the country. Thousands
of sight-seers visit this marvel of nature, |
but during inclement weather they are
forced to travel more than one hundred
miles, indirectly in order to see the moun
tain on account of the condition of the
highway between this city and Monroe.
When this paving is completed to Mon-|
roe, the highway on to Atlanta will be as
straight as an arrow. No heavy curves
anywhere on the route. Unlike the high
way from Lawrenceville to Atlanta, which|
follows the old Indian trail, and is made |
up of curve after curve all the way. !
Hon. E. M. Williams, of Monroe, chair-|
man of a committee of citizens represent-|
ing Walton and Oconee counties is co-op-l
erating with L. W. Nelson, chairman of
the Athens Chamber of Commerce high-|
way committee in an effort to secure the |
letting of this contract by the State High-l
way Board at an early meeting. This is a/
proje¢t that should interdst and arouse|
the people of Athens to a point of im-|
mediate action. !
A JUST CAUSE FOR DIVORCE
Divorce proceedings and suits for ali
mony have been the subjects of interest
ing discussion in the newspapers and|
magazines of the country for some time.
It has been alleged that women are mak-|
ing a practice of contracting marriage in’
order to place themselves in a position to,
sue for divorce and alimony. In fact, iti
‘has been alleged that the increasing num-|
,ber of divorces and suits for alimony;
‘have grown to be a racket with these
women and that many of them profti
from the practice. 5
However, such isnot the case in all suits.|
There are many divorce applications filed
that are deserving and should be grante‘d.l
It is true also that some of such cases are|
granted, to be followed by alimony pro-i
ceedings which are usually allowed byi
the courts. A case that has attracted more |
than ordinary interest is announced fromi
Chicago. A musician in that ctiy has been
sued for divorce by his wife on the charge‘
of having sat on the edge of her bed, dur
ing an illness, and practiced on a saxo-|
phone. We believe that this woman has|
good and sufficient cause for the granting |
of a divorce. If grounds of cruelty are!
sufficient to secure divorces, certainly this
petitioner is entitled to a separation from
a man who has no more consideration for!
his wife or the roomers in the building|
than to blow a saxophone in the room of
a sick person.’ : I
A WARNING FOR SHOPPERS
There are just six more days in which
to do « Christmas shopping. While the
grand finale of the holiday season will
be on during the last days of next week,
those who can should do their buying
this week. The stocks of the merchants
now are complete, but if they should have
a sell-out, it will be too late for them to
re-order and get the merchandise here in
time for the Christmas trade.
Besides, early shopping is far more
pleasant than the last minute shopping.
The crowds, the rush and mixup on the
last days make buying anything but
pleasant. The clerks can better serve cus
tomers when sales are normal; next week,
trade will bé abnormal, and the usual
crowds may be expected pushing and
rushing around from counter to counter,
in an effort to get waited on, all of which
adds delay and unsatisfactory way of
making your purchases.
Make up vour list of .Christmas pres
ents you have in mind to give, and with
out fail, trade this week. It will be for
your interest, and certainly you will en
joy . getting the first pick of merchandise
now on the counters. Early buying is a
happy solution of the perplexing problem
of Christmas shopping. Try it this week,
and you will be well repaid.
Contractors regard the laying of 15,000
bricks as a good day’s work for one man,
but a Negro WPA worker recently laid
36,519 bricks in one 7 1-2-hour day on a
paving job. He paved a quarter mile of
20-foot paving apd required 12 helpers to
supply bricks.
On New York money-lending institu
tion has more than 2,000,000 names in its

DID IT EVER
OCCUR TO ‘U’
At this esason of the year,
sneak thieves enjoy a harvest:
from robbing parked automo
biles, aspecially, in isolated
sections of the city. i
Shoppers, who trade in the va
rious stores, and have more pack<
ages than they can conveniently
capry around wtih them, if they
deposit them 1n their cars, should
be certain to lock their cars, or
better still, leave some one in‘
charge. Every year, there is more
or less of petty thieving of this
character which can be prevented,
if , the proper precautions are
taken. Autos parked on side
streets are usually the ones these
sneaks undertake to ab. For that
reason, shoppers should remember
the danger of having some of their
packages stolen, if their cars are
not securely locked.
So far this season, we have
not learned of anyone suffer
ing losses, but it may be ex
pectad that the sneak thief
crowd will be in operation
during the holiday season,
Of course, the merchants will
be more than glad to accommo
date their customers by keeping
their packages for them until they
are ready to return to their homes,
but those who store them in their
cars while transacting business at
other places, on return tp their
autos may find that some one has
relieveq them of their purchases.
Sneak thieves are hard to detect,
the officers not knowing the own
er of the cars, robbery can easily
be -committed right under their
eyes. As a reminder of what
might occur, we are in advance
calling the attention to what is a
possibility. ‘
" While this week has been
one of the largeut trading sea
sons in Yyears, next week is
looked forward to as a record
breaker in all lines of busi
ness.
- The first parg of the week, wea
ther conditions were unfavorable,
but even at that, the merchants
have enjoyed a most encouraging
trade, showing increases over that
of the same period of last year.
The time is short in which to do
your shopping, but there are sev
eral days more left in which to
round out your last minute buying
and for those who have not com
menced their shopping. 1t is never
too late ‘to make purchases, but
the early trader secures the pick
of the stocks ang avoids the rush
which is so common during the
closing days of the holiday sea
son. There are 'only six more
shopping aays betore (Christmas—
short days at that. ' :

~ ly after the mysterious disap
~ pearance of Frank Kendrick,
- to whom Marcia had been en
- gaged. When shortages had

) shocked than heartbroken. She
~ realizes she was never in love

L= McDougall is attentive until
" Dorothy Osborn, who dislikes
~ Marcia, leads him to believe
. Marcia is engaged to another
man.
There is a bank holdup and
polios commandee the Canfield
car to follow the bandits., The
car i& wracked and both Mar
cia and her father are injured.
McDougall, driving with Dor
othy Osborn and her mother,
comes upoii the scene. He
takes Marcia and her father to
a hospital. Later McDougall
calls the hospital repeatedly,
is told Marcia is “doing well.”
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER XXI
When Marcia awakened later she
was in another room, in a white
bed, and a woman in white and a
man in white were looking at her.
“Now she’'s going to be all
right,” said g voice.
Marcia tried to speak, but for a
while words would not come.
When she succeedeq in speaking,
she asked, “Who was hurt?”
“All of you were hurt,” said the
man, “but not so much. Your
only real trouble, I think, is a
badly broken arm. You were
knocked unconscoius, but not for
long.”
“Father?” said Marcia.
“He has a total of three broken
ribs. It’s a miracle, but the two
seats must have kept you penned
in so you weren't bounced around.
The chauffeur held on to the
wheel, apparently and kept his
neck from being broken. He has
some fractures, but he’ll get over
them. The policeman can't com
plain of anything but bruises and
sprains . . . But don’t bother about
it. Everything's fine. Get some
sleep.”
On the second day she was well
number of etxra eclerks have boenl
employed and everything possible
for the accommodation of the pub- !
lic has been provided. Even at;
that, the rush is on and keeps up'
throughout the day. However, thct
postmaster is not unmindful of the
eagerness of the patrons of the
office to have their packages
weighed and rated, and with that}
in mind, he has tried to relievei
any congestion at the windows, by
supplying additional help.
‘We must not forget to re
ming motorists and pedestrians
to drive and walk with care
during the rush season. A
life might be saved.
To the credit of the people of
this community, 'the absence of
those under the influence of in
toxicants has been quite noticea
ble. In fact, fewer arrest for
drunkess has baen made this week
than at any time in recent years.
If the police authorities would
station a traffic officer at the in
tersection of College avenue and
Clayton street, much of the dan
ger of accidents would be removed.
Such a protection would not nec
essarily cause an increase in ex
pense to the city. The direction
of traffic by an officer has a mor
al effect on those inclined to drive
recklessly; the silent traffic signal
is for the careful driver and those
whe believe in observing the law.
enough to receive callers, so that
she heard from many sources and
with variations that the bandits
had escaped—only their abandon
ed car being found—and also the
story of how Bruce McDougall and
the Osborns had brought her to
the hospital
From McDougall himself came a
very simple box of flowers, with
a polite card expressing a hope
for her quick recovery, but he did
not appear among her visitors,
either on that day or on the days
following. Marcia did not know
that he telephoned the hospital
frequently and anonymously for
news of her, nor that, alone in his
rooms, he dwelt grimly on imag
inary scenes of a flying visit to
her bedside by her reputeq fiance.
Marcia would have liked to
thank McDougall for his help—and
she would have liked, she admit
ted to herself as she passed long
hours alone, just to see him.
It piqued her a bit to think that,
having performed a signal service,
he could dismiss the incident with
a perfunctory note and a bunch of
flowers. Of course, if he cared no
more thanp that—!
On her third night in the hos
pital, after visiting hours, Marcia’'s
nurse, one Peggy Holmes, was
preparing her for sleep. .The doc
tor had just departed, with &
nromise that she could go home
“pretty soon now.” She had seen
her father, walking stiffly'and
complaining bitterly that he was
taped too tight ‘to breathe. She
had had favorable news of the
chauffeur's condition.
Miss Holmes, discharging her
tasks with a mechanical precision
which left her mind free for the
more entertaining hospital routine
of conversation, gave Marcia the
latest gossip and chatted of the
evening’s visitors.
“Hasn’t that man been here to
see yvou yet?” she demanded.
“What man?’ asked Marcia,
“The guy with the tragic face
who carried you in here the night
you were hurt.”
“I didn’'t know he had a tragic
face.”
“You’q have called it tragic if
vou'd seen it then,” said Miss
Holmes. “I was in the receiving
ward, so I got a good look at him.
He looked worse than vou did;
you were only unconscious. He
came carrying you in from the
driveway and put yvou down as if
you were a mangled flower, so

When at last Miss Holmes left
Marcia lay without sleeping.
There was a warmth in her heart
for Bruce McDougall's concern as,
woman-like, her intuition reached
out ang brought back the knowl
edge that, after all, in some pecu
liar way, he cared.
Somewhere there was an absurd
little explanation for his staying
away. Tt didn’t matter; she knew
what she wanted to know.
Mrs. Reid Henderson, the direc
tor of “Half-Acre in Eden,” had
spent a frantic fort-night worry
ing over the necessity for postpon
ing the show or finding a substi
tute for Marcai, when, with the
performance only , week ahead, a
simple solution was presénted.
Both Marcia and her father had
been allowed to leave the hospital,
the doctors finding no further in
juries and no evidence of the ef
fects of shock. Helen® Waddell
and several other girls in the show
visited Marcia on her first after
noon at home. Discussing a post
ponement of the play or the (to
them) impossible alternative of
finding a substitute for the lead
ing lady, they proposed, simply,
that Marcia should take part on
the scheduled date, regardless of
having her arm in g cast.
Mrs. Henderson, when the sug
gestion was carried to her, agreed
without much reluctance. Marcia’s
accident was common knowledge;
every member of the audience
would, bhefore the performance,
have seen her about town with
a disabled arm. Therefore, said
Mrs. Henderson. the show would
go op and everyone, cast the audi
ence, could just ignore the arm.
After al, many an audience in
the professional theater had been
compelled to excuse far more on
the part of certain leading ladies.
Rehearsals, therefore, continued
with increasing excitement, due to
the approach of the actual per
formance. The cast met each night
of the last week, with dress re
hearsal scheduled for the night be
fore the presentation.
Midway in the weekj Mrs. Hen
derson sought to spur her com
pany toward final perfection with
the stimulus of a mysterious an
nouncement.
“You are all doing splendidly,”
she told the group, assembled on
the stage of the auditorium. “I'm
proud of you. The few rough spots
left will- be corrected easily, 1
know.
“Now, there is something I want
to tell you—in part. 1 can’t give
vou the whole story; I promised
to keep it a secret.
“But I can tell you that on the
night of the show there is to be
a surprise for you. For the whole
town, in fact. Something that, ac
tualy, all of us will feel we have
a share in, even if we can't all
benelit directly. It is something
that should make the Stagecraft
Guild—and particularly this cast
—very, very proud. Now, work
hard and deserve it.”
She refused all entreaties to say
more.
Bruce McDougall was inking in
a sketch. The pencil job had sat
isfied him, but now it was all
wrong. -He knew what was lack
ing, but he seemed unable to draw
the lines he wanted. He frown
ed at the work on his drawing
board, and frowned at his pen, the
odlest and most faithful among
his store.
Disgustedly, he tossed the pen
down and pushed the drawing
board aside. As in the case of
the sketch, he knew his- trouble,
but coulgq not apply the remedy.
If only someone else had been
handy on the night of the wreck
to pick up Marcia Canfield! Then
he would not have held her in his
arms, would not now be mocked
by his once level-headed decision
to put the dream of her aside!
He stared out the window. Mec-
Dougall couldn’t get over it. TUn
fettered, free lance McDougall
without a worry in the world, had
came to Bobbs Neck and found
himself tied for life to the thought
of a girl he couldn’t have!
