SNAP SHOTS. (By Rev. W. H. Faust.) Suppose the waiters were to strike for higher wages, and more munificent tips. What would the eaters at restaurants do? These are trying days on mer chants who happen to have on hand a big supply of old cork screws. Our girls have clearly demon strated in war times that they can work as well as men and get as good wages too. iSo we may look for a shakeup when they are ask ed to go hack to pre-war condi tions. j ,~I Poor old Turkey is having a hard time these days sitting at the feet of the ex-kaiser. Woodrow Wilson has been quot ed as saying that the senators who opposed the league of nations only had heads to keep their bodies from unravelling. It is about true, whether he said it or not. These weeks it seems that Sat urday is just absolutely bound to be a disagreeable, rainy day. All the men who fuss and fume when the income tax collector comes around ought to consider what Kaiser Hill would have rle J manded if he had been the lax as sessor of the world as he hoped to be. Liquor has been legally illegiti matized, and now comes tobacco s time. However, the .M.l• A. s stand ns cigarette seller may save its hide in this awful crisis. Wouldn’t it be funny if while the world is fighting to make the world fit for Democracy the Dem ocratic postmasters should all lose their jobs to Republicans? It is a simon-pure, unadulterated pity that we have ever been will ing to raise the long meter doxol ogv when some church worth a million dollars raised one thousand dollars for missions. Some sensible folks regard it a blistering shame that God's work must be financed with the proceeds of oyster suppers and ice cream festivals. The people who heard Dr. Anna Howard Shaw speak in Atlanta at the Peace League Conference re alize that there is at least one wo man who can occupy the platform with Taft and Bishop Candler. The little fad moustaches adopt ed by some of our returned soldiers remind one at a casual glance of the noses of little negro boys about thirty years ago on a cold, frosty morning. A few more rainy days like unto the one we had last Saturday and J. J. Brown and his cotton farmers will not need to resolute any more - in re cutting cotton acreage. When a boy gets too big for his parents to correct him, and control him, it is a dead sure sign that not enough hickories were worn out on him while he was growing up. The workman who continually keeps his eye on the clock will never succeed in becoming proprie tor of the factory. If there is anything on earth that can act more silly than a hen in the road in front of an auto lie hasn’t put in his appeaijance in this mundane sphere as yet. The farmer who this year fails to raise his supplies *at home, whether he cuts cotton acreage or not is acting as foolish as a rat in a last year’s bird's nest. The country weeklies in Georgia have so much pot matter and al ready set up and rehashed stuff that it would be an insult to call them an up-to-date newspaper. When folks don’t do their duty they like to criticise the preacher. You can easily get rid of a preach er, but such members are like Ten nyson’s “Brook” —they remain going on babbling forever. Some folks seem to have no con ception of the real value of time in keeping an engagement. And time is about all that some preach ers and business men have as a sur plus of. Handle it easily, gentle men. Compensation. Providence lias given us hope and sleep as a compensation for the many cares of life. —Voltaire. SMOKING TOBACCO FACTS FROM THE ENCYCLOPAEDIA The Use of Flavorings Deter mines Difference In Brands The Encyclopaedia Britannica says about the manufacture of smoking to -1,-; ): “ . .on the Continent and in A ..erica, certain ‘sauces’ are employed . the use of the ‘sauces’ is to improve tV- iiaveur and burning qualities of the ] ave, .” Whic h indicates that a smoker s enjoyment depends a.: much upon the Lng used as upon the tobacco.

Jewell Patrick, the local rep resentative of The Atlanta Geor gian and Sunday American, re turned Thursday night from At lanta, where he attended the an nual convention of the Live \S ire Agents of those newspapers. More than 200 attend the “Round- Up,” coming from all parts of the Southeast to join in the two days of fun, sightseeing, banqueting and instruction given them Feb ruary 2G and 27 by The Georgian Company. Jewell is enthusiastic over his reception. The boys were enter tained in every possible way. They saw Atlanta from one end to the other and back again, were pilot ed through The Georgian Build ing, seeing the paper made ready and printed. They met and chat ted with the members of the edi torial staff, had secrets of printing and engraving explained to them by the heads of the departments, and saw the huge presses publish ing thousands of complete papers each minute, and the mailing force shooting them out to the trains. “It’s hard to tell just what part of those two days was the most interesting,’ says Jewell, “we were on the go all the time.” The convention banquet was given Wednesday night, attended by the officials of The Georgan. That night Jewell was awarded one of The Georgian-American “Live Wire” badges, as a token of his splendid business ability and the enterprise which earned for him an invitation to the “Round-Up.” Only the agents proving themselves REAL busi ness builders attended the con vention, and his presence was not only a distinction to him, but a credit to the town producing a boy of his caliber. And Jewell is back on the job full force —increasing the number of his subscribers to show The Georgian that its high esteem of his ability is more than justified. He said The Georgian had in structed him to boost his home papers for home news and The Georgian and American for na tional and international news and features. Drink Buttermilk Freely. The use of buttermilk Is largely a matter of habit. Southern cities con sumo almost as much buttermilk as sweet milk. The difficulty of keeping milk sweet has been largely responsi ble for the popularity of buttermilk as a beverage. FROM OUR EXCHANGES. Mr. and Mrs. C. E.

It may be interesting to some peo ple to learn that all the work In a bee hive is done by female bees. The drones, or males, live on the labors of their more Industrious female com panions. Moreover, there Is no such thing as a king bee. The ruler of the hive Is the queen, but she Is a ruler In name only, being guarded and pro tected by the bees simply because the colony would become extinct If she did not lay eggs at a prodigious rate. It Is not unusual for a good queen to pro duce her own weight in eggs In a single day, and she keeps this up for weeks at a time. Nervous headache is the result of a run down weakened nervous system.
