The new law firm of Kelly, Kelly and Sims lias opened offices on 2nd floor of the City Pharmacy building, corner of Broad and Candler Streets. Mr. Sims of this firm, is a Bar row County young man and known to most of our people, lie • ad just begun the practice of his profession when he enlisted in the forces of I'ncle Sam to help crush Cermau Militarism. THEY KEEP THE DEMAGOGUE FROM STARVING. If things are not just as they ought to he and as you Ihink llley should lit" don’t gel mad with yourself and with all the rest of hu manity anil fret your life away. \\ lien a small hoy ploughing a mule in rough ground, we frequently got mad and madder and put all Ihe blame "on the mule. How we did whip and abuse that old mule who w as doing his duty and keeping his temper under control much better than we were exercising our self -control and mule sense. Many men are still like hoys, because tilings are not just as they would have them from their preconceived and too often mistaken ideas, they form the unfortunate habit of abusing their government and can see no good in it. # , They lose sight of all the benefits derived from it; that without it all would be chaos and conditions would be deplorable. It is an unfortunate calamity for any man when he reaches the con chision that government is a farce, that he has been robbed of all his liberties, and he resolves to become a chronic kicker. It is upon such men the demagogue delights to feed and without them lie would soon starve. 0 The kitchen should he the cleanest room in a home and it cannot have this reputation unless the woman of the home devotes a part of her time to her home. O If tlie people will quit spending their money so recklessly and get down to some common sense living, there will he enough of all crops produced in Georgia this year to make the large majority of its citi zens prosperous and happy. 0 The man who forms the habit of eternally cursing the government, and believes everything the demagogues tell him, hurts I B own in- Huence and harms himself and others by bringing on discord and un rest. 0 Judge < 'buries \V. Smith, of the Stone Mountain Circuit was ap pointed Monday by Governor Dorsey to the court of appeals to suc ceed Judge I’ey ton L. Wade who died last week. John B. Hutc i - prominent lawyer, of Jonesboro, was appointed by the Governor to succeed Judge Smith on the Stone Mountain Circuit. 0 President Wilson lias begun his speaking tour of the country in de fense of the League of Nations to the discomfort of the republican senators. 0 The women of Atlanta voted in the city election yesterday for ti e first time in the history of that city. O RAILROAD TRAVEL INCREASING. It has been often suggested for the past few years that the increas ing number of automobilies and better highways would materially les son travel on the railroads of the country and that passenger coaches would soon go enpty. But those who still patronize Ihe railroads find the trains on all lines crowded, and it is not an ex travagant statement to say there has never in all the history of this country been as much travel on all rail roads as at the present time. If this continues, the income from passengers will he so large, those who charge that under government <• ontrol the roads have failed to pay expenses will have to make some other argument in beliali ot pri vate ownership. To show the increased revenue from passengers at the Winder sta tion, which is an index to all other points on the Seaboard, it will be interesting to know that for the month of August there was an in crease of nearly eleven hundred dollars over the preceding month, the increase for July more than $600.00 over June and that the August receipts doubled those of May. __ _ It' this increase is proportionately as great all over the l nited States, w hich beyond doubt it is, one eon readily figure what an im mense increase in revenue it will run to in reducing the deficit brought on during the war period. Whether or not government ownership of railroads is best for the people is hard to decide, but The Times lias never felt it vyas a fair test to reach a conclusion for or against this important question under the conditions which existed during the war.
