It has been said that clothes do not make the man,
but sometimes they may break him.

The Georgia peaeh has begun to move, and the

Q
The Georgia Railway and Power Company may be
•the octopus that the Atlanta Georgian claims it to be,
but even at that it isn't as dangerous as the octopus of
Hearstism and yellow journalism. We do not stand
sponsor for the Power Company, but we are Inclined
to believe that the Georgian’s attitude is creating
sympathy for it among observant people.—Walton
Tribune.
O
As to Men.
Lady Astor says, "Men are 4he weaker sex, and
they are so easily attracted that it is a shame to take
advantage of them." Men 'have always admitted
this truth. Since the day when Eve beguiled Adam
into eating the fatal fruit In the garden of Eden until
now. men have been subject to the charms of women.
And this power that women have over men should
ever ho exercised for tin* good of the human race.

To Achieve Success
He has achieved success who has lived well, laugh
ed often, and loved much. Who has gained the respect
of intelligent men and the love of little children. Who
has filled his niche and accomplished his task. Who
has left the world better than he found it, whetheb
by an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued
soul. Who did not lack appreciation of earth’s beau
ties nor fail to express it. Who looked for the best
that was in others and gave the best he had. Whose
life was an inspiration and whose memory Is a bene* 1
diction.—Selected.
O 1/
Men of Winder, This Means You.
Cities are what men make them,
Wherever the cities may be.
Whether out on the desolate desert,
Or set by the surging sea.
Tho they cleave to the breasts of the mountains,
Or nestle by the rivers broad;
Cities are what men make them,
On the land that is given of God.
So take up your task as you find it,
Nor grumble at what you have not;
Be one of the men to make greater
The place where you cast your lot.
If the ocean shall threaten to whelm you,
Build a dyke that will laugh *tt its might;
Cities are what men make them
Who are willing to labor and fight.
—Daniel Lovelace in the “City Builder,” organ of the
Atlanta Chamber of Commerce, and sent to the
Winder News for publication by .T. C. Stickney, sec
retary of the Barrow County Chamber of Commerce.
O
Speak Out Now.
If you have any good to say about a fellow man say
it to-day while he lives. If you have any flowers to
give him let him have them today so that he can
enjoy them. Many hearts in the world today are
starving for a little bit of sympathy and love. Give
it to them now. It will make smooth many of the
*
rougli places of life, and sweeten the cup of adversi
ty that we are all called upon to drink.
n
Here’s to Friendship.
He's my friend, because he knows me. I’m his
friend, because I know him. We know each other
thoroughly, therefore we are friends. Friendship is
founded upon our thorough knowledge of each other.
We tell our friends the inmost thoughts of our minds.
We unbosom ourselves to them. They learn our de
fects, our faults, our weaknesses, and their friend
ship for us is founded upon their knowledge of us.
A real friend does not love you for what you have
but for what you are. He loves that innate personali
ty that pervades your being. He looks down into
your soul and sees your real, genuine self.
Friends think together, talk together, act together.
Their ideas of life generally harmonize, and flow
along together in the same channel. Yon will not im
pose on your friend. You do not expect him to be
an angel, you know that he has faults, but you love
him.
O
The Splendor of Death.
In nothing has Henry P. Davison more honored his
own character than in his request that black be not
at his funeral. Such a death as his is not a defeat,
but a victory, and even in sorrow there should be a
proud triumph. To fight to finish the course, to keep
the faith—these are victories worth winning. As
such let them be celebrated.
It is not in the clothes but in the heart that we
may best remember those who have left us. It was
from the heart that Edgar Allen Poe wrote that most
poignant lyric of the nlneteenh century, “Annabel
Lee.” It was in the heart that Tennyson composed
a more elaborate tribute to his friend, Arthur Hall
man. Even in sorrow few of us are poets. But there
is a language in which we can all express our fondest
remembrance. There is a mourning which should
ever be a welcome fashion.
We whose hearts enshrine the love that is lost to
us for awhile may be clothed in the garments of sym
pathy for others. There is no touch so tender as that
of one who has himself suffered the pain.—New York
Mail.
