FAYETTEVILLE, GA., FRIDAY,
JAN. 29. 1909.
Fvery town in Georgia of any
size should have an organization
os its busiress men to look after
its business and commercial wel
fare, and work together with one
accord for everything that will
tend to help build up the town,
better its moral and educational
standing, establish manufactur
ing industries and make it an
ideal town—a blessing to itself
and the county at large.
For two years the several com
missioners of agriculture and
chemist have been striving to
have eliminated from all foods,
injurious chemicals. It is now
elaime'd that in changing the col
or of flour to a snowy white that
the chemicals used are injurious
and the safety of the people’s
health demands that this cease.
Our present commissioner of
agriculture of this State has un
der consideration an order to
stop the bleaching of flour in
Georgia, and if he should find
that the white flower is unwhole
some, then we would say apply
the pure food law to the roller
mills of the State, and give us
the kind that our parents had in
the years gone by.
Not every boy can be a rich
man or a great man, but every
boy can be a gentleman. A boy
with gentlemanly manners, who
is trusty and honest and does his
very best every day, will gain
the attention and confidence of
men and will be given paying
and responsible positions as soon
as he is old enough to fill them.
Boys like to have fun and a good
time. It is right they should.
They will never be boys but once,
but to have fun is not altogether
what they are made for. Boys
are of value chiefly to make men,
good for something in the world
Character, like a house, must
have the right kind of a founda
tion stone of a good character
are reverence for God, respect
and obedience to parents, defer
ence for old people.
Farm life has its drawbacks,
but it has its great advantages
which overcome them. The
boast of the business men and
politicians of the world is that
they were born Jon the farm.
Take away the surrounding evils
that beset the young men or wo
men on the threshold of life’s
journey in the town or city, and
substitute the helpful influence
of nature, and you fortify them
for the sterner walks of life. We
think Ihe moral influence in our
county is the equal of any and
her hills contain ample plant food
to care for her young people and
no young man or woman need be
ashumed of living on her farms,
for if they have taken advantage
/of what the farm life has offered
they are well fortified for the du
ties and responsibility of after
life. In almost every other call
ing or profession we find they
• were educated and trained for
'"■MiSiiml.
their calling or profession. Why
not give the boy on the farm
some training and preparation
and let him start equal with the
city boy or girl’ and that labor is
honorable.

J. S. Travis Complimented^
The following is taken from
The Carroll County Times. Mr.
Travis at one time lived in this
county and has many relatives in
Fayette who will be glad to hear
of his progress:
“J. S. Travis, Carroll county’s
school commissioner entered
upon his third quadrennial term
May 7, 1907. It has been his
earnest desire to further the ed
ucational interest of the county
by urging the people to erect
comfortable and commodious
school buildings, to increase the
length of the school term by vot
ing local taxation in the various
districts, as to supplement the
public funds by voluntary contri
butions by the patrons.
“He has persistently stressed
the idea of fewer and better
schools, and while this does not
seem popular, with the masses,
it has proven wherever tried, to
be a long step forward in the ad
vancement of pupils and the se
curing better teachers.
“Since Mr. Travis has been in
office the public school term has
been lengthened to six months
and the salary system has been
inaugurated, and he has also, for
the past two years, been paying
his teachers monthly. He is en
ergetic in his efforts to secure
good teachers and insists upon
their faithful performance of
duty. Under his supervision
and planning, there is no doubt
that the inherent value of educa
tion will be constantly kept be
fore the people.”
Revolts At Cold Steel
“Your only hope,” said three doctors
to Mrs. M. E. Fisher, Detroit Mich, suf
fering from severe rectal trouble, lies
in an operation.” “then I used Dr. Kings
New Life Pills,” she writes “tillwholly
cured.” They prevent Appendicitis,
cured Constipation, Headache. 25c. at

Wonderful System.
A German ■canvasser took the fifth
story elevator of a wholesale house In
New York and walked into the office,
where one of tho proprietors was busy
at his desk. The canvasser was told
that the house needed nothing in his
line, but he persisted in opening his
sample bag and making himself the
cause of much distress until finally the
euraged proprietor kicked hint down
the first flight of stairs. An employee,
observing the mode of descent, repeat
ed the dose with like effect, and it
was dittoed until the unfortunate Ger
man found himself on' the ourbstoned
highway. Shaking himself, he looked
back over the course of events and
ejaculated: “Yell, dot ish a great es
tablishment. I don’t know deir partic
ular line of peesness, but, my, vat’
system, vat system!”
Emmett Farr, of Atlanta, vis
ited homefolks Saturday and
Sunday.
His Memory Was Weak.
An elderly widower was so' dull and
stupid that it was very difficult to
marry him. When told to give his
right hand he gave his left. When the
minister said, “Say this after me," he
immediately remnrked, “Say this after
me,” but when the words he was to
repeat were given lie was stolidly
silent.
“At last,” says the minister, “he saw
that I was somewhat bothered by his
extreme stupidity, so in the middle of
the service he upset my gravity by
volunteering the following apology:
‘Yon see, sir, It’s so long since I was
married afore that you must excuse
my forgetting of 'these things.’”—
