O A gift is the most costly thing any one can receive. O The best way to solve a difficulty is to look It square in the face and go forward. Once we knew a fellow who bored us almost beyond forbearance until we loaned him five dollars. O It's great to be honest, hut it. takes something be sides honesty to get along In the world. o- Happiness always tiles out of the window when money figures in a marriage ceremonj. o~ You will never he happy thinking about getting it from someone else; happiness comes in making others happy. O- If the next legislature will do something about lim iting the tux rate in tlm comities it will place the public under lasting obligations to it. O We can’t understand why thousands of potato plants are shipped into this section every year. Har row county must get away from that practice. O Tin* Crawfordville Advocate-Democrat is right when it says, “According to our way of thinking, it is much better to help “mu" with the house cleaning and the dish-washing than to break all the maratlum dancing record so far established. ’ O- Editor Shackelford, of the Oglethorpe Echo, thinks the insane asylum at Milledgeville. is not large enough. He says that there are a lot of crazy peo ple loose in the state, if we should judge by their ue t ions. O Is the good roads department of Georgia in the mire of politics? If so, its a great misfortune. No rea son why our Highway Board should become a politi cal foot bull. If it is. and if it is not removed from that realm, it will prove very detrimental if not imsi tively destructive. —Commerce News. O John Shannon, over in Commerce, bought anew suit of clothes, new shirt, collar and tie, and other new things, put on a broad smile, had his picture made and sent it to Rush Burton, over In Lnvonia. It looks like John is aU>ut to get his picture in the papers. 0 Editor Morris, of Hartwell Is trying to be stylish. Hear him: “Truthfully speaking, this might be term ed the season of the year when everybody hires $3 worth of plowing done, buys $2 worth of sml, $4 worth of fertilizer, and breaks his back ruisiug a garden for the edification of our neighbor's chickens —and sometimes we actually save 75 cents j>er month on our grocery hill. But you must garden if you want to be stylish.” 0 • Recommends Bond Issue THE Good Roads Association, which met in Macon last Monday reeoinmeniMl a $70,000,000 bond is sue for highway improvement. The association will work for its passage before the legislature this sum mer. It is the opinion of the News that such a pro cedure will be time wash'd. The legislature is too wise to pass such a measure, and if they should do so, it would be overwhelmingly defeated by the peo ple. The tax payers of Georgia anei in no mood to vote bonds for any purpose just now. We are perfectly willing to put up with things as they are until we get some of our debts paid. It is far better to go back to old dirt roads of twenty years ago. and pay our honest debts, than to ride over paved highways and burden ourselves and our children with debts that will paralyze our efforts and bring despair upon us. Now is the time for our people to bend every effort to getting out of debt rather than pluciug lffiuvier burdens upon us. The High School Graduates THE high school graduate will soon be receiving his or her diploma. It will be a great event in their lives if they will make it so. If they are proud of their records and the diploma spurs them on to great er efforts it mean much to them. If they go to college anil use wisely the time given them in those Institutions for mental advancement, it will mean success In life. Indifference and a lack of ambiton on the part of our young people are keeping them down at the bottom of the ladder of success. Winder High School this year will graduate a fine class of boys and girls. We hope they will catch the right view of life h they go out from this institution anil that they may win success along life's pathway. O A Fine Thought. 0 EPHRAIM, what shall I do unto thee? O Judah, what shall I do unto thee? For your goodness is as a morning cloud as the dew that goeth early away. Therefore have 1 hewed by the prophets; I have slain them by tin* words of mouth; and thy judgments are as the light that goeth forth. For I desire goodness, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings. —Hos. 0:4-0. O Fifth District School Wins Honors THE Fifth District A. & M. School, located near Monroe, won honors at the District A. & M. Schools at Athens the latter part of April. This school won fifty points during the meet which entitled her to receive the grand prize banner. In the literary contests the Fifth won 24 points which topped the list and gave her the literary banner. President Walker and his associates, as well as the pupils are to be con gratulated ujion this fine showing. O A Georgia Dairyman THE NEWS Is a great believer in the value of the cow to the Georgia farmer. She is one of his greatest friends. The Augusta Chronicle tells the following story of a South Georga dairyman which we pass on to our readers. ( Mr. H. It. Finn is a farmer-dairyman living near t’ordele, Ga. He lias 14 cows and ships the cream from his dairy to the Conlcle creamery. His cash receipts for cream in November was $201.30, for De cember $268.85 and for January $284.00. Mr. Finn paid out nothing for feed, as hef raises till the feed on his own farm, he paid out nothing for labor, milking the cows himself. In addition, he had the skimmed milk from these 14 cows to feed his hogs and chickens, and the (Vvtilizer to enrich his farm. Mr. Finn’s place is 20-horse farm. On it in 1022 he raised 103 bales of cotton and did not have to go in debit one penny for the raising. The creamery checks enabled him to pay cash for what he bought. O Longing for a Lover. A CERTAIN hymn tells us that “the world is dying for a little bit of love.” But have you ever thought oven as people desire love, so do animals? All animals—especially dogs—are longing for love ev ery day of their lives. You ran walk down the street and meet a lonesome, ragged, disowned dog which, if you will snap your linger at him and speak kindly to him, will prick up His ears and wag his tail and follow you. Some dogs endure so many kicks and cuffs and so much starvaton that they eagerly grasp at an insignificant kindness. Animals love to be loved almost as well as a person does. Remember this and sec that all animals with whom you come in contact get some sort of affection. A college president once stated that one of the tests of an educated person was to be aide to say that a stray dog would follow him home. —It. S. West in Dumb Animals. O The Value of Courtesy. THERE is no doubt but that courtesy is one of the most winning forces in business or in any of our relations with our fellow men. This is because every body likes to he treated courteously though some of us may not Ik* courteous towards others. Corporations as well as individuals are learning the value of courtesy. Railroads are requiring their em ployees to he courteous to the public. That old spirit enunciated by one of the Vanderbilts, "The public be damned.” is no longer tolerated among railroad offi cials. That is because corporations, even, are learn ing that there is money in being courteous. The greatest diplomats in tIM world today are to be found among the business men. The proprietor of a retail store recently said that he took the position that liis customer was always right when complaint was made, and that it helped his business wonderfully to take this attitude. While a few might impose on liim. He kept most of liis customers and won others by his liberal policy. A man cannot l>e a salesman without courtesy. Sometimes you will timl a salesman who will become abrupt when he finds that he cannot make a sale. This spirit will always lead to failure. In fact, such a condition is the real test of courtesy. Real courtesy will always show itself when no sale Is made. I o Two women in Atlanta fought over a man. We’ll bet he wasn't worth the fine they had to pay.
