F. Pettit and James B. Craw ford, near Cassville, the same day a waterspout and hail storm did much damage to corn crops. The hail tore ie blades into shreds. Have tfie Georgia girls noticed that according to the census fig ures, there are not men enough in the state to go around; that, as a matter of fact, there are nearly it,ooo more women than men? The meaning of th : s, of course, is that a girl has less than an even chance of getting a proposal, as suming that the chances are limit ed to Georgia boys. This is a se rious condition for any sweet girl graduate to contemplate, and sug gests the advisability of the employ ment of a fine degree of tact in dealing wdth the so-called stern sex, says the Savannah News. This might be a serious situa tion for some girls, but not for those of Georgia. It is a well known fact that the men from ev ery state in the union are attract ed to this stat? by the Georgia girl.
