Voices Out of the Past
Dr. Talmadge, one of the
greatest public orators, in
one of his sermons on the
“Spirit of the Press,” said:
“To publish a newspaper
requires the skill, the
precision, the boldness, the
vigilance, the strategy of a
commander-in-chief. To edit
a newspaper requires that
one be a statesman, an
essayist, a geographer, a
statistician and, in acquisi
tion, encyclopediac.
“To man, to govern, to
propel a newspaper until it
shall be a fixed institution, a
national fact, demands more
qualities than any other
business on earth. If you feel
like starting a newspaper,
secular or religious, under
stand that you are being
threatened with softness of
the brain or lunacy, and
throwing your pocketbook
into your wife’s lap, start for
some insane asylum before
you do something desper
ate.”—Butts Cos. Progress,
June 13, 1913.
A popular form of govern
ment for the young people of
the city are the theater
parties at the Vendome. This
popular show place is
presenting some splendid
programs and is enjoying a
large patronage. Under the
new management the movies
are better than ever and the
pictures each evening afford
an hour of entertainment to
an amusement-loving pub
lic.”—Butts Cos. Progress,
Sept. 12, 1913.
A school master once said
to his pupils that to the boy
who made the best piece of
composition in five minutes
on how to overcome habit, he
would give a prize. When the
time had expired a lad of nine
stood up and said: “Well, sir,
habit is hard to overcome. If
you take off the first letter, it
does not change “abit.” If
you take off another letter,
you still have another “bit”
left. If you take off still
another, the whole of “it”
remains. If you take off
another, it is not totally used
up. All of which goes to show
that if you want to get rid of
habit, you must throw it off
altogether.”—Butts Cos. Pro
gress, Oct. 31, 1913.
The ring of the anvils! Such
music! Like the melodious
whispers that sometimes
emanate from Alhambra, so
graphically described by
Washington Irving.
The music of the anvils!
How deliciously suggestive of
a happy life in rural districts
of the peaceful country that
we so well remember but
which we failed to appreciate
at its true worth. How
deliciously happy were those
days of our boyhood when we
had no cares but to play
hooky from our duty—when
the threatening antics of a
chop axe were unknown, but
a healthy seasoned hickory
switch was administered
with more telling effect than
some modern acquaintances
know how to use a hammer
on an anvil. How melodiously
suggestive of a rushing
business is the musical ring
of the anvils as the music
emanates from the shops of
G. W. Kinsman, Tom
Thurston and J. A. Kimbell.
—The Jacksonian, May 10,
1907.
We lost six or eight
subscribers last week, but we
are forcibly persuaded this
week that we haven’t lost any
readers.—The Jacksonian,
May 10, 1907.
Among a lot of good things
that Governor Hoke Smith
said at Carrollton on the
opening of the A. & M. School
were these:
“All we can get out of life
after a naked living is doing
something for somebody
else. It isn’t just the dollars
you put in the safe. You
might cover a man all over
with gold dollars and leave
him there in that condition;
he hasn’t the elements of
happiness. If you teach him
how to be of service and lead
him out where he is doing
something for himself, you
light in his heart a flame that
leads him to glorious
advantages, to Heavenly
aspirations; you make him
just a little after the image of
his maker, you shape his life
just a little toward the man of
Galilee, and you give him a
capacity for the highest
earthly joys.”—Butts Cos.
Progress, Feb. 6, 1908.
The man who does not
advertise because his grand
father did not, ought to wear
knee breeches and a queue.
The man who does not
advertise because it costs
money, should quit paying
rent for the same reason.
The man who does not
advertise because he tried it
and failed should throw away
his cigar because the light
went out.
The man who does not
advertise because he doesn’t
know how himself, ought to
stop eating because he can’t
cook.
The man who does not
advertise because somebody
said it did not pay, ought to
believe that the world is
round because the ancients
said it was flat.—Butts Cos.
Progress, April 9, 1908.
Booklet Helps
Users of
Hearing Aids
Perhaps you or someone
you know has been having
trouble hearing clearly. The
answer is a hearing aid,
right? Only maybe.
There are some hearing
problems that cannot be
improved by a hearing aid,
and you would just be
wasting your money to buy
one. And the amount of
money is substantial since
hearing aids cost between
S3OO and $450.
The, Food and Drug
Administration warns that
the best thing to do if you
suspect that you have a
hearing loss is to go to the
doctor. He or she will give
you an examination to find
the cause of the hearing loss.
In some cases, your
hearing can be improved by
medication or surgery. If the
doctor says a hearing aid
may help, see if you can find
a dealer who will rent you an
aid for a month or two. That
way you can try it out to see if
you are comfortable with it
and whether it will really
help.
The Food and Drug
Administration has new
regulations dealing with
hearing aids. To learn more

Hearing Aids Help. Single
copies are free by sending a

Information Center, Dept.

a hearing aid can and cannot
do:
It is basically just a little
amplifier so it cannot restore
poor hearing to normal
hearing and it cannot arrest
the progress of hearing loss.
A hearing aid will rarely
reduce and may increase
distortion in the speech heard
by those with a hearing
problem.
And often it will not help
you to understand conversa
tions better in noisy situa
tions or in groups.
Despite these limitations,
hearing aids will help many
people.
But before anything can be
done to help people with a
hearing loss, they must
accept the fact that there is a
problem, and seek help.
