If we respect ourselves the world will respect us.
O
Some times we call a fellow shrewd who is only
dishonest.
O
Self-pity weakens us. Never let it find a place In
your mind.
O
The time lias come for you to borrow your neigh
bor's lawn mower.
O
Question: Can a man have a telephone in his
home and remain good natured?
O
We can become anything,, within reason and com
mon sense, which we desire to become.
O
Love begets love; faitli generates faith; lofty lives
nourish the germs of exalted life in others. There is
a spiritual birth. John was tin* successor of the spir
it of Elias. Luther was the offspring of the mind of
Paul. We are the children of Abraham if we share
In the faith of Abraham ; we are the successors of the
Apostles if we have a spirit similar to theirs. —F. W.
Robertson.
O
Criticism Is Helpful.
It ill becomes those in authority to resent criticism.
All puUUc officials should realize that they are the
servants of the people, and that tin* public has a
right to criticise everything they do. it does not
help these officials to run to courts when they are
criticised and endeavor to prosecute their critics. Ev
en if these critics are mistaken it is better to he pa
tent and explain everything so that the people can
understand and rattier than to resent criticism with
court prosecutions of libel.

Mother’s Day.
Next Sunday has been designated as “Mother’s
Day." Of All human names among men, there is
none greater than "Mother.” Every human being
should give homage to this matchless name. It has
molded kingdoms, revolutionized empires, civilized
and christianized heathen nations, and peopled earth
and heaven. Mother is first in every noble work,
Tin* infant nestles in her bosom with joy, the child,
hurt in its play, flies to her arms for refuge, and tin
young man or woman, halting on the brink of ruin,
turns to a life of rectitude and usefulness in answer
to her prayer. Sin- was last at the cross, .first at the
sepulchre and the only one to bathe the Master's feet
in tears. She exemplifies more than another human
being the spirit of the Christ,, in that she is ready
at all times to make any sacrifice for those she loves.
Let us. then, on next Sunday, give her that homage
that is due her great and holy name.

A Creamery For Winder.
Tin re is a splendid opportunity just now for Win
der to secure a creamery for this county and section.
One of the city’s splendid citizens proposes to build
and operate a creamery if cream enough will be fur
nished by the farmers to keep it running. There is
no use in talking about diversified farming until a
market is secured for other products besides cotton.
If Harrow county is to turn Its attention to cows,
hogs, and chickens, there must be a market secured
for the products of these lines of business. The
creamery will furnish a market for the products of
the cow. We must not let this opportunity pass by.
We suggest that the Chamber of Commerce take
up this matter at once and put it over. Creameries
are paying in other sections, why not Barrow coun
ty? Let’s have the creamery.
O
Heavy Burdens
THE annual income of the United States in 1910 was
thirty billion dollars. It is now estimated at fif
ty billion. We have nearly doubled our income in
ten years. But in 1910, the government levied only
B per cent taxes for meeting the expenses of govern
ment. Now it is levying 10 per cent,, more than
three times as much.
Why is this? Because we are now spending on
preparations for war alone more than we spent teu
years ago on all branches of government. We are
squandering our money on preparations for war and
because of this insane idea among our political lead
ers we are forced to levy taxes beyond precedent and
even beyond the ability of our people to pay. There
is literally not a branch of industry or business on
which the restoration of prosperity depends that is
not practically paralyzed today by taxes.
What is true in the United States is true in all the
nations of the world. The nations of the earth are
destroying themselves preparing for "war. It looks
very much like the nations of the world need men
with some sense at the head of their affairs.
O
If bandits wait until we travel in China to kidnap
us we'll never be kidnapped.
O
Avery disgusting thing is for a married couple to
try to settle their disputes in the presence of others.

Sending currency by mail is always risky. A check on your bank,
or a New York draft is always safe, costs nothing and acts as a receipt.
If it gets lost or stolen you can immediately stop payment and
issue a duplicate.
Your creditor would prefer a eht'ck —it is so much more easily
handled, and payment by check gives you a prestige with your cred
itor.
