Those belonging to the Georgia Automobile Association can buy gas at many Service Stations at 2 per cent discount on the gallon. Smith’s Service Station at Dalilon- ega is one of them. We suppose that while Mr. Hoo ver is out enjoyiA'g himself viewing the different countries will have to make out on grape juice. It’s a pretty cool drink too at this seft9on of the year. The Macon negro Conference met in Forsyth, Ga. t last week. Of course they were all well pleased over the way many white people voted w tli them recently in the selection of a President. .John Camron, who was convict ed of killing ft policeman and es caped fourteen years ago, was re cently captured.

It happens ev ery season. we noticed when an Indiana man was cleared the other day he hugged each woman juror. Now the supposition is that all other defendants are wanting a trial at this term of the court. We would. If a fellow happened to be found- guilty lie might do a little hug ging any way.

We noticed where a negro was iucited to break the law by a game warden down in Florida and ilien arrested. For which the warden was fined $2$ and co^t. I he may or did him right. Jehn I)."Walker,^former head of a chain] of lo7 South Georgia Buks and once a member of the state senate, was captured in New York last week. So the usual lu nacy trial may he expected. Four carloads of auto tags have been received by Secretary of State Carswell for 1929. It being nec essary for each cai 1 to have two. Many failed to buy one. Do not know what they will do about it neAt year. A negro undertook to make his escape down at Columbus one clay last week by leaping from a bridge forty-five feet and seven inches high. But he didn’t ruu on ac count of breaking a wrist and an ancle. A small pair ’of wings would do him. Some foolish fellow remained up on a little platform about i7o feet high in Atlanta from Monday un til Saturday noon, both day [and night, for five thousand dollars. A Chinaman would have had more sense than to exposed himself this way. An exchange says the loafer should he taxed instead of the la beling mail. They would then fail to pay and he put on the in solvent list, and lo trouble for nothing. Unless some candidate comes along and pivs it off so he can vote for him. • The white applicants for federal positions hereafter will not have to seek the endorsement of Ben Da vis, the negro socalled State Cen tral Republican Committeeman, having resigned because Senator Harris and some of the rest of them insulted him in their speech es during the campaign.

And ye editor is still hoarding there, Mr. Jake Pruett had a corn shucking recently. Our friend forgot lo invite 11 s up to sing jolly around the corn pile, and place our feet under his table atul eat chick en dumplings for him. \\'e wcrelplea-ed to have a visit from Prof. Krucu Ray and lady from Clarkesville, last Tuesday.

If the fai-mersin Lumpkin equi ty would sow more of tlieii land in grain, like older ones used to and then turn the land after harvesting time, they would enrich the soil, save buying so much high priced guanoaud make just as much or more. Groceries are being sold and delivered to our merchants by a wholesale house in Gainesville now. If our old merchants, who did business here years ago, when it took a week or ten days to or der and get their goods from At lanta, coiffd wake up, wouldn’t they be surprised to find that such goods can he gotteu in less Ilian an hour now? C7ne day last week here when the thermometer registered 41, some of the boys went up on Neel’s Gap and found ice where a day’s sun bail not melted it. This shows Imw much cooler it is on tlie Blue llidge than it is down here, being a most delightful place in the summer. You might take a man who h ul been on a protracted spree, tired of drinking water and let li m go up there and take in some of that pure fresh air and lie would get the desired relief and return to the low lands perfectly happy. We used to print a college pa per for the students, which took nearly as much time and trouble to get it out as the Nugget, al though it was not near as large It was caused by having to refer to the dictionary often to see that every word in it was light and proper. \\ u had to have it arn't.
