Pure Paint
/ In this age of strenuous compet
ition of prices in ready mixed
•paints, it is a question with the
man who is contemplating painting
whether or not he will get strictly
lead and oil when he buy. a manu
factured article.
There are three cardinal virtues a
paint must posess to be strictly first
'i Mass: It must he WHITE to be
capable of producing a soft clear
tint. It must wear well to hold it’s
. color and body the longest possible
1 ,tiine. It mitsr COVER well —that
"*• is, it must spread over the required
I surface evenly an l smoothly, cover
1, ing a maximum amount of surface.
I The above requirement, if mot
■ with in a composition of pigments
Bhid liquids, will produce the effect.
■As yet no paint or composition has
■ been manufactured meeting these
■ requirements without puie lead and
I linseed oil.
IjjfOur H&W paints meet these re
j^irements in every particular .and
as follows: 11<V\\

Odd Fellows’
Convention.
The fifth convention of the
11th. division of 1. (). 0. F. was
held ot Ilawkinsville, Oct. 6, 11)10.
There was a strong delegation of
loyal Odd Fellows in attendance,
and an attractive program was car
ried out.
At 2:30 p:m the meeting was
called to order by Division Deputy
Grand Master Dr. C. T. Hall, of
Cochran, in the beautiful little
Odd Fellows hall which has recent
ly been erected and elegantly bitted
out for this pm pose.
This session was devoted to
the regular business routine, and
closed about 3:00 p:m.
The Odd Fellows returned to the
hall at 7:00 p:m, and marched to
the auditorium in a body where an

The spirit of our noble order pre

believe these conventions make bet
ter men and better Odd Fellows,
And, whatever our little differ

therly love.
We congratulate our sister city

nishing the visitors such a royal
entertainment.

Jeff Morgan Enters
Sophmore Class.
Jeff Morgan, fine of the graduates
of the Cochran High School, has
entered Sophomore class at Emory
College. This speaks line for Jeff
as well as our excellent school.
With pardonable pride the Journal
feels like it has contributed some
thing, however in creating a
sentiment favonfble to oui school.
A country editor is often accused
of being a “hot air” artist. He
must bean optimist, when storms of
depression sweep across the coun
try; and “stay on the mountain
top,” preaching prosperity, when
half of his subscribers are delin
quent. He must be . a booster,
when some of the staunchest and
prosperous of the towms citizens go
about with long faces, croaking be
cause of a little temporary depres
sion or because they can’t make it
all ina year. The home paper
should get in behind every project
ed enterpise in the town and assist
in. its development. If the school
is weak, help build it up. After
the little country editor, who isoft
entiioe considered a joke by some
of bis own people, devotes weeks
and weeks of his time and energy
in a campaign of education in his
community, sees the school tax
raised to a sufficient sum to main
tain a spiendid faculty, sees the pu
pils of the school capturing prizes
in the district school meet, scoring
six points more than any other
school in the district, with such ci
ties as Cordele, Fitzgerald, Ameri
cas Ilawkinsville, and Abbeville;
and then, when it is brought to our
attention that a graduate from this
school can enter Sophomore class
in the higher educational institu
tions of our state, we feel intensely
proud that we have participated in
this campaign for a better school
and that our splendid people have
united almost as one man for the
betterment of educational condi
tions in our'community.
We must not stand sfill. There,
are better things yet in store for
Cochran. With a supreme confi
dence in the future and an eye sin
gle to the welfare of our town, let
us with renewed confidence and
double effort march onward until
we have placed Cochran in the front
rank of prosperous south Georgia
cities.
