land on June 2nd. but the teriffle rains completely

our next meeting is in the hands of the executive com
mittee of the association and they will make an
nouncements in due time.

If we understand Judge Powell, he means to say
that a law that Is violated ought to be repealed. There
fore, according to his logic, tlu* law against murder
ought to be repealed. Your position Is very weak,
Judge.— Alpharetta Free Press.

things. Civilization has had to fight is way upward

—.. Will Decrease Crime.
That the prohibition laws are decreasing crime
in this state is evidenced by the statements of the
solicitors-general of Georgia. In a symposium pub
lished in tlie Macon News recently most of these of
ficials came out squarely iu saying that these pro
hibition laws are causing a mnrked dberease in crime
in this state. We quote below the statement of Hon.
W. O, Dean, the solicitor general of the Western cir
cui:
“The Act of 1916 was one of the best laws ever en
acted in Georgia, for the cause of tenuterance, and very
materially decreased crime, but the Act of March 28,
1917, will in my judgment have the effect to decrease
crime iu Georgia more than fifty per cent. The time
expendisl hereafter on the criminal docket of this cir
cuit will lie less than half the time heretofore con
sumed.”
judge Arthur Powell, of Atlanta, just made a mis
take in his speech at Tybee recently. All men are
fallible and Judge Powell is just a mau.
They Appreciated Their Editor.
Here is a story published in an exchange which
shows how greatly the people of a community in
Kansas appreciated tHeir editor: “In appreciation of
the work of a Kansas editor for their community, a
hunch of citizens recently presented him with a bou
quet. <Jn the same occasion a quartette from a local
church sang a few sweet songs and a minister made
a little talk. After the minister’s talk six husky
men carried the popular editor from the house and
placed him tenderly in a model 1921 plumed sedan,
and the whole town formed in parade behind the ex
pensive car. After the parade the appreciative crowd
returned to their homes serene in the thought of having
provided one bright day in the life of their local news
paper purveyor, even if they did wait until he was
dead to do it.”—The Fourth Estate.

Why Can’t Barrow?
MorVlstown, Tenn„ shipped $8,000,000 worth of
eggs, chickens and cattle last year. Why can’t Bar
row ?
Why can’t Barrow ship hogs instead of importing
bacon and hams?
Why can’t Barrow county raise its own hay?
Why can’t Barrow county raise beef_cattle?
Why can’t Barrow county furnish the merchants
with the canned goods they sell instead of importing
them from California, Michigan and New York?
Why can’t Barrow farmers sell the inhabitants of
its towns their flour instead of their having to get it
from other sections?
Why are there any Irish potatoes shipped into this
county?
These questions are worth considering by our peo
ple.

Blessed.
Blessed is the frying size lad who doesn’t consider
his parents as a pair of idiots.
Blessed is the mother-in-law who thinks her son-in
law good enough for his wife.
Blessed is the woman who can refrain from saying
“I told you so,” when her husband pounds his thumb
with the hammer.
Blessed is the man who can worry with the baby
while its mother sets dinuer on the table and not lose
his temper and spank the baby.
Blessed is the husband who can lnd his clean shirt
ami his Sunday shoes without tearing up the con
tents of every bureau.—Farm Life.

What Is Success In Life?
Character building is the essential thing in the life
of every young mau aud woman. The possession of
character that cannot be assailed is worth more than
anything in the world. The man who values his own
character so thoroughly that he will not allow him
self to be led into doubtful transactions will find that
at the end of the road the reward is rich and satisfy
ing.
A young man in a certain city of the south had
labored among his fellowmen for years. He had not
saved much but he had character. The time came
when he wished to make an investment that would
bring a sure return and be a stepping stone to a com
petency late in life. He went to a hanker and asked
for a loan of SI,OOO. It was not as much as he need
ed but he thought he might be able to close the deal
and get into business that would bring him good re
turns. The banker talked with him and finding that
the young man needed very much more money, he
asked him why he did not borrow more. The young
man said that he was afraid that the bank would not
loan him any more. “Why, you can get .SIO,OOO on
your note,” the banker assured him. The borrower
was astonished and went away to conclude the deal.
That young man had not realized that while he
was working steadily along that he was building a
sure foundation for future welfare. He made good
and no one ever had cause to regret any act of his
in business or in any other line of endeavor.
Real men and women do not ask how much money
anyone has. The question they will ask of you is,
“What sort of life have you lived? What sort of
home have you made? What do you mean to the
people of your town or your community? Have
those about you been lifted up from sordid lives thru
your influence?" In these tilings lie the test of your
character, of your success, of your definite value.
Every man has a rating in the estimation of those
who know him which may run parallel to a 4rad
street rating but may be vastly different. Thousands
of business men in the streets of every city in Geor-?
gia have a list of their greatest assets that are in
visible. One mau may have great wealth but his cred
it may not be of the slightest worth to him. Another
man may not have much money, yet his word may be
worth thousands at a bank. That is the difference
in men, aud it is the difference tliut makes a solid
foundation for the relations of men in every relation
in life. These invisible assets, “the aggregate of
virile and decent qualities,” will be the measure of
one's success as a man or a woman.—Macon News.

The high cost of loafing is one of the things that
hurts these days.
