There are about seven hundred eases on the docket of the superior court of this county, and it will take several years to cl<tar these dockets if no new eases should lie placed thereon. These conditions demand that something be done to relieve the situation and the grandjury after careful investigation created n county court to take care of the smaller part of the business that comes before the superior court. If given time we believe this court will prove a most economical way of disposing of much of the business that conies before our courts. The county court of Oconee county, one of our neigh bors, has no'ver cost the county anything. It lias more than paid expenses. The judge of that court in a let ter to tlie editor of The News says: “The coimty court here lias never cost the county anything. Often it has more) than paid expenses. I recall several years when it paid the county very handsomely above ex penses. While I do not believe in operating a court for profit, I do believe in economy, and if some profit is incidental It is not to he despised in this time of mismanagement and waste.” The solicitor of the county court of Oconee says. "There is a way to relieve the congestion in your su perior court and that is by creating a copnty court, which can be done on thd recommendation of the grandjury. This court in our county is not only self sustaining, lint each year it pays into the county treas ury more money than it costs to run the court and at tlie same time relieves our superior court of the largo number of eases. It will he a money saving propo sition for the county if you will recommend the crea tion of a county court.” Tlie above is what, tlit- two officials of a neighboring county think of such a proposition. We fool sure if tlie members of our legal fraternity will co-operate in getting this court started right that it will prove a very economical institution. O One of tlie finest things in life to learn is to learn to say nothing.

Chi cago, 1* The Children Will Pay It is true that a vast, portion of the Indebtedness Incurred by the great war will be paid by those that were children under twenty-one years of age when war was declared. This tremendous burden lias tsvn placed upon them by those in authority. Some times we think our public men are the most incompetent for the Jobs they hold than anyone; else. Farmers, mer chants, clerks, professional men are far more effi cient in their vocations than those at the head of public affairs. There wasn’t a man in Germany, how ever humble) his vocation, hut. what performed the du ties of his job letter than tho kaiser. He was a tremendous failure as a leader of his js-ople. At hLs bidding tremendous burdens hnv\ been placed upon liis people that the young children of the pres ent time will have to stagger along under all their lives. We should he slow to place great burdens upon the coming generations. o The Sweetest Singing “Brother Mockingbird,” as lie is affectionately call ed, slugs in any old place—in the pine, ns well as peach trues, when the branches are bright with blos soms, or barren and forlorn. It may make a difference to him, but you never can tell it from his song. He sings because the music is waiting for utterance, and the soul of sweet<Bt song is in him. Still, we think (hat what he must love best is a garden-place in which to sing—some little home-gar den, in town or country, with a solitary peachtree in it, whore he perches supreme. He finds such garden spots in the city, and seems to love to welcome the morning there, and never omits to make the night melodious. He seems lo think that the busy, clanging, horn honking city needs just, that kind of softened singing to cheer it up. And hd isn’t mistaken! It takes the city dwellers out of the daily rut of toil and struggle, and sets them dreaming of “green fields and running brooks,” and old sweethearts that met thdir lovers with a * • ’- All sweet music makes tlie world dream dreams; but now that spring lias come home and thrown wide the windows of light, home will look and listen for Hrotlier Mockingbird, and thank him for the sweet est singing.—Atlanta Constitution. o After a man has served on the grandjury for a week, he reaches thd conclusion that we are a long way yet. from the millennium. O Editor W. T. Anderson, of thet Macon Telegraph, has been writing oil the nid to health of whole wheat bread, and n-ow’ they are inviting him to many places to speak on how to live a hundred years. He ought to take John Howell, of OuthlxVt, along with him. John has been eating whole wheat bread and will be one hundred years old in a few years. O Editor McWhorter, of tlie Winder News hops up and says: “In all our life wc have never seen as little rdspcct for law as is manifested in the country today. There need to be some hangings in Georgia and less interference with the verdicts of the juries and the judgments of the courts.” Why McWhorter! What do you mean? Didn’t you know that even the lash on sullen convicts can not be used now? Is not this a progressive age? Can’t you keep up with the times.
