Inasmuch ns bills are being introduced and many
of them passed in congress and the legislatures, the
Georgia legislature might as well pass the bill of Sen
ator Fleming forbidding men to go fishing without
their wives.
Many trains are being taken off by tlie railroads all
over the country. These trains are being discontinued
on account of the strike. Many of them will never
be put back on and this will mean that some people
will be put out of jobs forgood.

Home of the candidates went down to the Weekly
Press convention at Quitman last week and stirred a
lot of politics in it. When this organization was first
started it was aimed for its members to take a week
off for recreation and pleasure. üßt now that a lot
of their time is taken up in listening to the office
seekers talk it will be different, and reduce the In

The bill before the legislature to prevent “picketing*
by strikers is a good one and should pass that body
promptly. When a man units a job be should not be
flowed to stand around the premises of his former
employer and worry those who wish to work for him.
Only recently 22 men were killed in Illinois b.V strik
ers. These 22 men were trying to work, and the
strikers killed them rather than see them take their
places. Let the legislature of Georgia prohibit
“picketing" by all means in this state.

And now the sentimentalists are trying to get Geor
gia to supplant the gallows with the electric chair.
What would county sites like ours that have no cur
rent do with a chair? But who ever knew a seutir
inctntalist to have any common reason?—Oglethorpe
Echo.
Sentimentalists sometimes have a great deal of
common sense. Should such a law he enacted in
Georgia, there would not be a death chair in every
county in the state. It would not be necessary any
more than in other states where the death penalty
Is Incftted by electrocution.

Summer Visiting.
This is the time of the year when families visit
each other. It is “lay-by" time not only on the farms
but also In many lines of business, and the leisure
days are used by the people in renewing old acqualnt-
afieee. and strengthening the family ties. It is fine to
get the family together early in the morning before
the day gets hot and hike oft for thirty or fifty miles
and spend Die day with your relatives, or to have
them spend the day with you.
All families should know each other. They should
get together occasionally and tala over family ties and
tell each other about their successes nnd failures. It
Increases the joy of living and makes us better men'
and women. By these visits we become Interested
In somebody else, and this givbs us a better viewpoint
of life. When we live to ourself we become morose,
unsympathetic, selfish and reserved.
A visit to your folk somewhere is a fine tonic. Try
“Let Us Have Peace.”
An Atlanta paper had an editorial last week enti
tled. "Let us Have Peace.” •
This is what the world today needs more than any
thing else. Yes, let us have peace. The nations of the
earth are filled with the spirit of contention and
strife. They are not willing to let the Golden Rule
have its way in their dealings'with their fellow na
tions. The spirit of unrest is everywhere. Nations
are arrayed against nations, labor against capital,
producer.against consumer, class against class. Ev
erywhere men look upob each other as their enemies.
The bate engendered by' the world war seems to be
growing larger in the heart of humanity.
Yes, is time to have peace. Let the press*, the
pulpit and all other agencies unite in the cry. “Let
Us Have Peace.” Humanity will come into its own
and prosperity will come trooping our way when
strife and contention 'are put away and when we are
Willing to do unto others as we would have others do
unto us. The Atlanta paper is right. “Let us Have
Peace.”
O
“As A Man Thinketh.”
There is no truer expression in all Holy Writ than
the words, “Asa man thinketh in liis heart so is he."
The thought that we harbor always lead to words
and finally to deeds. Hence it Is tremenddously im
portant that we think good thoughts.
Tlie man that thinks ol self all the time becomes ex-.
tremely selfish and to him there is no such tiling as
happiness. The man that thinks discouraging
thoughts becomes easily discouraged and is forced out
of the game of life. We can actually bring disease
and sickness upon ourselves by continually thinking
of ourselves Lu that way. Fear thoughts always
bring weakness and defeat.
(in the other hand, we can increase our capacity for
doing things and our chances of success by thinking
strong, constructive thoughts. If we would remem
ber that our mind is the agency that fashions our
lives we would lie careful to keep in full of the best
forces of life. We would not let forces or thoughts
dwell there that have a tendency to decrease our
efficiency and cause us unhappiness. We would
see that the fountain-head of our lives was always
kept clean and pure. We would think helpful, up
lifting. invigorating thoughts and these would be
sure to bring us a greater degree of happiness and
success.
make a mistake to begin to think dis
couraging thoughts. They always talk as they think
ami everybody gets discouraged and business becomes
stagnant and people are driven away from such com
munities. It pays In dollars and cents to think right;
think what you want to be; you will then begin to
talk what you want to be; others will believe you,
and the best things of life will come your way.
The present depression is largely a psychological
proposition just now. It is true the swinging back of
the pendulum of speculation and afflatlon was real,
and stopped us In our mad career to get rich over
night : it is true the boll weevil is a real vexing
problem to solve, yet we have made conditions worse
than they would now he if we had not gotten into a
pessimistic way of thinking, and thus becoming dis
couraged have failed to do many things that would
help us out of our difficulties.
Remember Holy Writ says: “Asa man thinketh in
bis heart, so Is he.” Tlie remembrance of it will do
you good all through life.
O
Opportunity.
They do me wrong who say 1 come no mure
Whl*n once 1, knock and fail to find you in
For every day 1 stand outside your ■
And bid you wake and rise to fight and wh,.
Wait not for precious chances passed away,
Weep not for golden ages on the wane—
Each night I burn the records of the day,
At sunrise every soul is born again.
Laugh like a boy nt splendors that have fled.
To vanished joys be blind, and deaf, and dumb;
My judgments seal the dead past with its dead,
But never bind a moment yet to come.
Though deep in mire, wring not your hands and weep,
I lend my arm to all who say “I can.”
No shamefaced outcast ever sank so deep
But lie might rise again and be a man.
• .—Walter Malone.

Nine railroad strikers captured J. F. Brittain, an
employee of tlie Louisville & Nashville railroad shops
near ashville. Tenn., last week. The strikers had a
rope, tar bucket, gun and torch. On account of this
mild show of hostility, Brittain became slightly un
easy and ran away from the striking gentlemen.
Some men are mighty easily scared.

The prosperity of every town depends upon the co
operation of its citizens. Here is what Kippling
says:
“It ain’t the guns or armament nor
The tunes the band can play,
But tin* close co-operation that
Makes them win the day. t
It ain’t the individual tior
The army ns a whole,
But the everlasting teamwork ’ t •
Of every bloomin' soul.”
