A certain Georgia girl, it is said, is making the
snug sum of eight hundred dollars per month with
her needle. That girl would make some poor young
man mighty good wife.—Commerce News.
What earthly use would such a girl hare with a
poor young man.

O
I Am Your Town
Make of me what you will—l shall reflect you as
Clearly as a mirror throws hack a candle beam.
If 1 am pleasing to the eye of the stranger within
my gates, if 1 am such a sight as, having seen me,
he will remember me all his days as a thing of beauty,
the credit is yours.
Ambition and opportunity call some of my sons and
daughters to high tasks and mighty privileges, to my
greater honor and to my good repute in far places,
hut it is not chiefly these who are my best strength.
My best strength is in those who remain, who are
content with what I can offer them, and with what
they can offer me It was greatest of all Romans who
said, “Reiter he first in a little Iberian vollage than
he second in Home.”
1 am more than wood and brick and stone, and more
even than flesh and blood—l am the composite soul of
nil who call me Home.
I am your town.—American Legion Weekly.

Isn’t It Funny.
That the man who thinks be is a business man will
get up in the morning from an advertised mattress,
shave with an advertised razor, take off advertised
pajamas and put on advertised underwear, advertis
isl hose, shirt, collar, tie, etc., seat himself at the table
and drink advertised coffee eat advertised flour or
bread, put on an advertised hat, light an advertised
cigar, and after all that go to his place of business
and turn down advertising on the ground that ad
vertising does not pay?—Hartwell Sun.

ginning to function right along. Already about a

O
Athens Entertains Editors.
Athens is a great city. She has a great chamber
of commerce mid that body has an ideal secretary in
E. W. Carroll. In her entertainment of the editors
of the Eighth and Ninth districts last Saturday Ath
ens put us all under lasting obligations to her. The
addresses of welcome by Chancellor Barrow, of the
State University, Mnyor George Thomas and Mr. M.
J. Abney, of the Chamber of Commerce, were so cor
dial as to sweep us all off our feet and to make us
feel that the millenlum was about to arrive. The
Athens papers, the Daily News and the Banner-Her
ald, left nothing undone to make the boys have a good
time, and the day was made glorious by our hosts.
While the bad roads cut down the attendance, a
goodly number of representatives were present from
both districts, and the exercises were enjoyable.
We lift our hats to the Classic City, and when she
wants anything that the two districts can give her
all she has got to do is to say the word.
O
A Voice From the Past.
Abraham Lincoln made a speech eighty-five years ago
to the Young Men’s Lyceum, of Springfield, 111., in
which ho used the following words that should be
repeated everywhere today : "
“Let every American, every lover of liberty, every
well wisher to his posterity, swear by the blood of
the Revolution never to violate in the least particular
the laws of the country, and never to tolerate their
violation by others. As the patriots of seventy-six did
to the support of the Declaration of Independence, go
to the support of the Constitution and laws let every
American pledge his life, his property and his sacred
honor. Let every man remember that to violate the
law is to trample on the blood of his father, and to
tear the charter of his own and his children’s liberty.
Let reverence for the laws be breathed by every Amer
ican mother to the lisping babe that pYattles on her
lap; let it be taught In schools, in seminaries, and in
colleges; let it be written in primers, spelling books
and almanacs; let it be preached from the pulpit,
proclaimed in the legistive hulls, and enforced in
courts of justice.”
