O Down in Brooks county swimming parties and al ligators are trying to use the same swimming hole. Up to the hour of going to press tlie ’gators seem to have the best of the contest. O They are putting men in jail in Atlanta for spin ning tops. We have thrown ours away.—Dahlonega Nugget. “Shack” of Lexington, has told on us and we’ve thrown ours away, too. O Now, Brother Townsend, don’t worry about your false teeth or wig, the press boys will see that they are well eared for, in fact, Bro. Me. as already picked \ out the most beautiful and lovely ladies in Winder for you. Man, how can you miss it?—Cleveland Courier. O Judging from tlie publicity that’s being made of it, the Ninth District Press Meet in Winder, September 2nd, will he equal in entertainment to that of the State Weekly Press Association. We hope it will be possible for every member of the Eighth District As sociation to l>e present. —Walton News. O Not a week passes but that several visitors come up from Winder. We are glad to have them with us Tlie gates of Dahlonega are always standing wide open to ull visitors.—Dahlonega Nugget. We are glad to see Winder and Dahlonega on such good terms socially. If Bro. Townsend will just come down and pay us a visit on September 2nd, we will be glad to return the visit in the near future. - t ■' -"O- • The Madisonian expects to take Uncle John Shan non at his word and attend the District Press Asso ciation at Winder on September 2. We want to know better those bright lights and hig guns up in the bloody Ninth. —Madison Madisonian. We’ll be delighted to have you. All tlie boys of the Eighth are cordially invited. We will be disappoint ed If they don’t show up. 7 ° The Ninth District Press Association is to be held in Winder September 2. We’ll be there. Johnny Rudasil is coming by anil take us in ids Buick. —Al- .parettu Free Press. We're expecting you both. If Johnny s silk shirt is in ttie wash, bring him on anyway. Rusli Burton from Lavonla, is coming over, and we’ll get Rush to tiring along un extra shirt so that Johnny can lie properly dressed before e Is put on exhibition. O Tlie Madisonian would like to see Laurens Fore man’s suggestion adopted as to ttie recording secre tary taking charge of tlie registration for the conven tion and see that badges are furnished to none but members of the Association and to visitors whose purpose in attending the convention is known and ap proved by the officers of the convention. The conduct of some oaiup followers, wearing the Association s lutdge, have reflected unfavorably on the Press Asso ciation, which In a measure Is supposed to stand spon sor for conduct of every one wearing its badge.— Madison Madisonian. O The fault with Farrar is that somewhere along the hlghwuy of life she lias lost a seriously largo part of her soul. In her search for true art, she lias left behind some of Its essential elements. Until she knows the love of a mother when she looks for the first time upon her child, and until she sings the simple songs of one rocking her baby to sleep in tlie evening, she can never know or come back into tlie art that lias its birth beyond the skies. But tlie day will come when the call will come to Farrar. It al ways does, they say, although often too late. It comes to those who have had their “Umehouse nights’ and sank into te slough of despond washed up by the pool of eternal despair. And if it descends to the gutters, surely it will rise to the stars. Let us hope it will not come too late to Farrar—the great and unequaled love of motherhood, the foundation-stone of an art whose depths would afford an electric shock to many great artists.— Macoa Telegraph. , _ The Mean Things. The last we saw of". Shack” of the Oglethorpe Echo, was on Broughton street in Savannah expatiating on the difference between “Savannah Ale” and “Moun tain Dew.”—Winder News. But we didn’t have a bottle ih our pocket and a lit tle gambling device with it as you had, Bro. Mc- Whorter. —i jgletborpe Echo. Hush up your foolishness, hoys. Each one of you knows so much about tlie other that it won’t do to draw this argument out. The last time we saw McWhorter he was leaning back on tlie steps that go down to the Tybee surf, his eyes closed, a fan in his hand, singing “Oh come angel band, come and around me stand !” And Shack had a merry twinkle in ids eye ns if he knew what it all meant. —Alpharetta Free Press. There will be a “sky-rocket” time at the meeting of the Ninth District Press Association in Winder on September 2nd. We have invited “Shack” over, and George Rucker will have to be here, as he’s on the program, and we're going to tell all we know on both of ’em. Be on hand, boys, and hear the “ghastly” tale. Hf • - - O Hits the Nail on the Head. The senate has passed a bill requiring the Bible to lie read in schools. If it could make a law that would cause more respect for the teachings of the Bi ble out of school ’twould be mucli better. —Oglethorpe Echo. Well said, Editor Shackelford. We don’t think much of any compulsory Bible reading law in our schools. The past two thousand years ought to teach us the danger of connecting in any manner the state and religion. But the time seems to be approach ing wherein the state will take absolute charge of a fellow. If tlie government is going to take charge of him every other way, we might as well let it say what ills religion shall be also.—Winder News. It is tlie State’s business to restrain men and give the church a chance to Save them, but it is not the State's business to deal with men’s consciences. For instance, it is right for tlie State to prohibit anything that debases character or prostitutes talents or pow ers, but it’s not right for tlie State to say that men shall believe in “falling from grace” or in the final perseverance of the saints, or that church membership shall be a thing necessary to citizenship. We should dislike very much to live in a government that would force Bro. McWhorter to be baptized by sprinkling instead of being immersed, or vice-versa. Among the thousands of blessings which we enjoy, one of the chief is religious freedom, and God grant that it may never lie taken from us!. —Alpharetta Free Tress. O Come On, Bro. Townsend. We have been trying to get out of attending any of tlie Press Conventions without being exposed, giving various reasons for not being present with the quill drivers who have been inviting and urging us to come. The last one was that we had to stay at home and mind tlie garden. To this Bro. McWhorter of the Winder News, says they are going to send a man up tlie 2nd day of September to keep tlie chickens out of the garden so we can attend the next Ninth District Press Convention to lie held in this city. If we attend we would have to buy a set of false teeth and a wig in order to masticate any of the many good things they have on these occasions, and to look real handsome when appearing in tlie ball room. And we feel confident while giving the cake walk and the fox trot that we would, shod both our teeth and wig right there on the floor, when our partner or any of the rest of the ladies, mattered not how much sympathy they had for us, could cover the misplaced articles with the tails of their skirts, because they all wear them too short in this day and time to make any such an effort. Now, is it possible that any of the press boys want us to get in an embarrassing position like this?—Dahlonega Nugget. We have done gone and invited a lot of the boys from the Eighth District to come up to Winder to meet the veteran quill-driver of the bloody ninth on September 2nd. You’ve got to come. Bro. Townsend. There will tie wailing and gnashing of teeth if you fail. So far as wigs and false teeth are concerned, you will have plenty of company for “Shack” of Lex ington, and John Shannon, of Commerce, will both be here, and we know you can “cake-walk” and “fox-trot” as well as George Rucker.
