O With coal at $12.50 per ton, ain’t you.sorry now that you kicked so hard about the hot weather the past summer? O An Atlanta man wants a divorce from his wife be cause he can’t support her. Many husbands art watching the outcome of this trial with interest. O- Editor Winchester, of the McDonough Advertiser, writes a strong editorial on the “Deceitfulness of Riches.” We suppose he speaks from, experience. O— He passed us in his high-powered car filling out eyes and nose with his abominable dust. About a mile further on he had a blow-out and we passed him. Did we smile? Just a little bit. O The safest citizens in any county are those who attend to their own affairs, live economically, pay their obligations, and “do unto others ns they would have others do unto them.” 0 — That was indeed a fine paper that the Athens Daily News got out on its first birthday. We congratulate those who are behind the paper on their grit and en terprise. - Our impression lias been all along that Mrs. Felton Georgia’s Senator, was a republican. It was alright to give the appointment to a Georgia woman, but she ought to have been the representative of the democ racy of the state. ;—o Somebody had the gall to ask President Harding to call an extra session of the United States senate one day in order that Mrs. Felton might qualify and sit in the senate for the day. The president promptly turned down the request. o- The Savannah papers are continually talking about South Georgia not being recognized in the political affairs of the state, but in the recent senatorial race, with Judge George, a South Georgian, and the best man in the race, Chatham county went for Hardwick by r good majority. O Thomas W. Hardwick has decided to estublisn a weekly newspaper in Georgia. Don't do it, Mr. Hard wick. Just because Tom Watson succeeded in hold ing his following through a newspaper, all men can’t do it. It’s none of our business, but if we were you we would get down to practicing our profession and eschew polities the balance of our life. O One day an Atlanta paper presented Mrs. Deßouch ell's picture front foremost. The next day the same paper inserted another picture showing her back. Next we may look for her foot and following all the rest of the scenery that is to be seen. Put the whole thing in. The average reader wants the whole beg.— Commerce News. ✓ When "you” want to see a thing, Uncle John, you should not hide behind “average render.’” O Reported successes of farmers in this section of Georgia in growing cotton with the use of calcium arsenate ought to be enough to encourage the farmers, who haven’t tried it. to try tills remedy out next year. Home weeks ago we mentioned a Berrien county farmer who made twenty bales of cotton on twenty-eight acres. Another lias made forty on seventy-five acres. A north Georgia farmer made 600 bales on 750 acres, and a well-known fertilizer campany made 600 bales on 800 acres. Those people were enabled to make these fine yields by the proper use of the arsenate, and it should encourage others to try it out. —Nashville Herald. “Keeping Up With the Joneses.” ONE thing that affects the happiness and prosperity of many of us to a large extent is the disposition to keep pace with those 'that are wealthier than we. In school, the young student sees the rich hoy or girl throw money around and they think they must do likewise. In our communities, we buy automo biles that we nre not aide to own und keep up be cause our wealthier neighbors have them. Families that are struggling to live, spend money on entertainments because they want to keep pace with others that, are perhaps able to give these en tertainments. This never brings happiness. It leads to financial embarrassment, and to all honorable peo ple it is humiliating not to be able to meet your ob ligations. Besides, it shows n spirit of servitude that is dis gusting. It shows that we haven’t the courage to live out own lives in our way but that we are letting somebody else dictate ns to the way we ought to live. This destroys character and will always end in un happiness. Even those -you are trying to ape despise you deep down in their hearts. Of one thing you can rest assured, when two or more people with similar tastes get together, they don’t have to sling around the cash to enjoy one another. O Today’s Best Receipt. Take one reckless, natural born fool. Two or three drinks of bad liquor. A fast, high-powered motor car. .Soak the fool in the liquor, place in the car and let him go. AftCT due time remove from wreckage, place in black safin lined box and garnish with flowers.— Walton News. O Today. THE best time that hits ever come into your life Js today. Use it thoroughly, make it what it renlly is. the Dost day that you have ever seen. Some people look back on yesterdays and some look forward to tomorrows as their best days. Such is not true. The best time in all our lives is the present. It only is ours. Since time began today is the best friend of man. In our weakness and blindness we fail to grasp this great truth. And hence we miss much of the successes and joys of life. Today is always the best day for doing good, for working hard, for being happy. Don’t miss the opportunity. It will never come again. O The Old Cow Chews Her Cud. Bullock county had a wet May. Corn turned yel low below the ears. Cotton grew slim in the legs.— No I mean limits, but — The old cow chewed her cud. Bullock county had a dry July, and a drier Au gucst. Corn had the ear-ache and was short. Cot ton opened faster than usual. Farmers complained, but — The old cow chewed her cud. September came with some corn and some cotton, hut not enough to prevent grumbling and dissntisfac tion, but — The old cow chewed her cud. Cotton went up to double that of a year ago, aud that helped some, but there wasn’t much of it, still — The old cow chewed her cud. The boll weevil got the top crop and half k>f the low er limbs. He did not bother the cows— The old cow chewed her cud. And finally, — In order to put the chewer in the pasture, let me inform you that, the local creamery churns a hundred dollars worth of butter a day, and more, too. They churned 1,125 pounds in one day last week biggest churning yet since they started —• The old cow chewed her cud. Ain’t you goin’ to say something about the farm er? —Certainly we are. Here it is- HE CASHED THE CHECK.—Union Springs (Ala.) Herald. O Sherlock Holmes on Suicide. Silt Conan Doyle, the creator of Sherlock Holmes, delivered a lecture recently on the question of suicide that is very interesting. Whether his deduc tions are right or wrong they are worth considering and they make good reading. Sir Conan Doyle be lives “that a suicide’s spirit when It leaves the body carries with in all the suffering that led to the self taking of life. That there is no running awuy from ones self, not even in the,hereafter.” . Ho says, this position is sound philosophy, sound morality, and is borne out by all human experience. Continuing the noted writer says, “Oue never settles a problem of any moment by evading it. Met, It must be. If not today, tomorrow; if not here, here after. The only sensible way is to try to meet it aright. No suicide (by which is meant, not the pa thetic act of n deranged mind, hut. voluntary self slaughter) never destroys that from which he really seeks escape. He destroys bodily functions, but not memory, nor perception in its inner and true quality, nor conscience, nor anything that ultimately counts Ho would as well imagine that by throwing his clothes into the river he would get quit of himself and the universe. Our deeds not only live after us, they also live with us in an indestructible consciousness that is no more dependent upon a body than electricity is dependent upon a bulb.” THB WINDER NEWS Now smoked by a million men who love a superior cigarette cigarettes I 5 for 1 Oc A Remarkable Record.
