Tlie Georgia legislature passed a law requiring the
Bible to be read in the public schools, and another
law allowing freight trains to run on Sunday.—

Down in Brooks county swimming parties and al

Up to the hour of going to press tlie ’gators seem to

They are putting men in jail in Atlanta for spin
ning tops. We have thrown ours away.—Dahlonega

“Shack” of Lexington, has told on us and we’ve
thrown ours away, too.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
