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: Homebody is writing for the papers ! that apples eaten just before retiring ! art- agree! help to indigestion.

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, July 15, 1908. What Lhe Holder Couvict Bill Provides The Holder bill, offered as a solu tion of the present convict lease sys tem of the state, is briefly summa rized as follows: No convicts are to be leased after December Ml, 1911. The convicts, not used by the counties, are to be leased, one year at a time. No lessee who has been cruel or barbrous to convicts, in the past, as brought out in the investigation, or reported by the penitentiary com mittees is to lease convicts again. The net revenue derived from the 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,
