WHAT’S WRONG WITH GEORGIA?
Every paper in the country, every
preacher and publicist, every reform
er and philanthropist has urged his
protest and spent' his opinion as to
the cause of lawlessness and its
remedy.
It does seem that our glorious old
commonwealth, with its motto of
“Wisdom, Justice and Moderation,”
at the present is suffering from
“Lynchites” or an epidemic attack
of “Disregard for Law.’”
Cartoons lambasting various men
and institutions have been scattered
over the State. Opinions worth
much and little have been given gra
tuitously. But the real reason is
found in a statement recently given
out by State School Superintendent
Brittain concerning illiteracy in the
Empire State.
Citizen, read this table and see
in it tl e cause, the true cause of
all our woes:
Lee county, 49.7 per cent illitearte
Baker, 46.4 per cent illiterate.
Oglethorpe, 35.4 per cent illitearte.
Rabun, 14. per cent illiterate.
Clarke, 22. per cent illiterate.
Gwinnett, 19.8 per cent illiterate.
Jackson, 21. per cent illiterate.
Wilkes, 44 per cent illiterate.
Walton, 24 per cent illiterate.
Oconee, 29. per cent illiterate.
These are among our best coun
ties.
Our State recently in New York
was put in a bad light, when the
states were represented by white
robed' ‘ girls, and Georgia’s showed
numbers of lynchings. A Georgian
present was sickened by the sight.
But what shall we do to erase
this stigma?
Three or four factors enter into
consideration: The Home, Teach law
and order and obedience here.
The School. The teachers can do
a wonderful work in creating in the
rising generation a healthy,’ sane,
sentiment.
The Church. The preachers ought
to speak out in no uncertain terms
against, lawlessness.
The Courts. By speedy trials and

POTATO SUPS.
I am taking orders for potato slips

der, Ga. lt-pd.
just verdicts let the people see that
it is not the purpose of the courts
“to dispense with justice.”
The wave of criminality breaking
with teriffic force over Georgia feeds
on ignorance. Wipe out illiteracy and
strengthen the forces of the home,
schools, churches, courts and crime
will decrease.
It is a shame that there are more
crimes committed in Georgia during
a year than in the entire British Em
pire. Twenty persons this year were
mobbed to death. It is cowardly and
shows a spirit that is anything else
than brave.
Georgia is in the limelight to our
hurt and detriment. The stain of
the mob is on our hands. The stig
ma of lawlessness is branded upon
us. As true citizens we must wipe
it off and out and please God, we
will.
Strike at the roots. Hit the first
blow to illiteracy an wisdom en
throned will giude our people, to law
observance and righteousness.

at a fourth grade entertainment by
Woodfin Hill, son of Ordinary Hill:
Be no flatterer.
Undertake not what you cannot

than in bad company.
W’hisper not in the company of
others.
Read no letters, books or papers
in company.
Every action in company ought to
be some sign of respect to those
present.
Come not near the books or writ

unaoKed.
Speak no evil of the absent for it
is unjust.
Let your conversation be without
malice or envy.
Be not apt to relate news If you
know not the truth thereof.
Speak not in an unknown tongue
in company, but in your own lan
guage.
When another speaks be attentive
yourself, and disturb not the audi
ence.
Turn not your back to others wher
speaking; jog not the table or desk
on which another reads or writes.
Think before you speak. • ,-j
