In some cases they last longer. They never need
repairs. They re fire-proof, storm-proof. They re

They preserve the bUI lding too, by keeping out damp

and a cool house in summer, you can’t do better than
see that Cortright Shingles*are used for the covering.

It Kip Should Awake in This Age.
We cannot help wondering wheth
er, in the event a Rip Van Winkle
should awake in this age and time,
In 1 would take the same view of
things as did the hero of the follow
ing little story:
Rip Van winkle returned from his
long sleep looking fresh as a daisy i
and made his wav to the village
barber shop, not only because he
needed a haircut and shave, but also
because he wished to catch up on
the’ news.
"Lets’s see,” aid lie to the bar
ber after he. was safely tucked in
the chair,“l’ve been asleep twenty
years, haven’t I?”
“Yep,” replied the tpnsorialist.
“Have 1 missed much?”
“Nope, we bin standin’ pat.”
“Has Congress done anything
I yet.
“Not a thing.”
‘‘Jerome done anything?
“Nope.’,
“Platt resigned?”
“Nope.”
“Panamacanal built?”
“Nope.”
“Bryan been elected?”
“Nope.”
“Carnegie poor?”
‘•‘Nope.”
“Well, say,” said Rim rising up
in the chair, “never mind shaving
the other side of my face. I’m go
ing back to sleep again.”
The One He Loved Best.
“Freddie, whom do you love
best?”
“You —But, mamma dear, there’s
somebody ] love better.
’ ‘ What, somebody you/love better
than mamma?”
“Yes,” answered Freddie, lin
gering over the word, and looking
earnestly at bis mother with great
I blue eyes, that seemed to ask her
not to feel hurt at his preference for
-another
‘.Why, Freddie,” she asked,
“who is that you love better than
marrfma?”
“Jesus,” was the unexpected re
ply-
The editor of a neighboring coun
ty paper thus gives bis experience:

Magnificent Record of the
Athens Business College.
Institute is one year old. Itsen
rollmeiit for the year has reached
828. Its student are doing good
work and spend much money here.
It gives promise of greater sueee.s.
The Athens Business College of
this city, just closing it’s first year’s
work, has made a most remarkable
record, perhaps one not equalled
by any other business college in
America. The school v.as opened
on the 24th of June last, with a
mere handful of students. Since its
opening, it has made 828 enroll
ments for full and complete courses
of Book-keeping and Business'Train
ing or Shorthand and Typwriting;
new students have come from eight
different States.
Notwithstanding the recent, finan
cial -tingeney, every graduate go
ingout from this institution dur
ing the past year has been placed
in a good position. The citizens of
Athens who subscribed for scholar
ships to induce this school to locate
in our midst have done much fur
the good of our city. At a v< ry
conservative estimate, the students
of the Athens Business! nllege have,
during its first y.-ar in our city, dis
tributed throughout the various
channels of trade, more than SBO,
000.00. With the continued loyal
support of the citizens of Athens
and the hustle and push of the
school, they should bring into our
city more than SOO,OOO during the
coining year.
There is not a better business
college to be found in America to
day than the Athens Business Col
lege, and from present indications,
it will not be many years until we
e n truthfully say there is not a
larger one. We advise our people
to visit this school and see the ex
cellent work it is doing. The prin
cipal of the school, Mr. G. S. (ias
ton, informs us that visitors are al
ways welcome. —Athens Banner,

What Lhe Holder Couvict Bill Provides
The Holder bill, offered as a solu
tion of the present convict lease sys

No convicts are to be leased after
December Ml, 1911.
The convicts, not used by the

or reported by the penitentiary com
mittees is to lease convicts again.

leasing of convicts for the year 1910
and 1911 shall go to fund for estab
lishing permanent penitentiary sys
tem.
Counties are to be allowed to work
pro rata share of all the convicts,
misdemeanor and felony alike.
Counties are to have first call on
convicts, leasing them from counties
not working convicts.
The “convict broker” is eliminat
ed by providing that all lessees must
either work their convicts or return
them to the prison commission for
r -leasing?
Any warden, deputy warden,
guard or other state employe guilty
of cruelty is to he dismissed and
punished as for a misdemeanor.
The sentencing judge is to have
discretion in sentencing female
prisoners to farm or convict camp.
Ihe races are to he separated
(this means white prisoners will go
to state farm.)
Commission is to put convicts in
| camps other than home county.
All convict camps are to be under
supervision of prison commission.
All of-these provisions are to
apply to new lease, which, Jaiitiaa,
