SIGNS OF GOOD LUCK
I hey count for might little in reality. They’re only “signs” after all The lucky man is he who uses good sense
and takes advantage of the opportunities that come his way. This advertisement brings you just the opportunity you’ve
been looking for. If price and quality direct your buying I have it. Do not take my word. I submit,the sure method to
determine the best price,is to figure with all competitions. After I’ve made you a price you will not want to trade elsewhere.
In other words I do not try to get MORE or LESS cut of you. If you can get better prices elsewhere you have a bargai n

OUR MOTTO: TO LIVE AND LET LIVE.

Here’s the argument after all, trade with home people and keep the money at home. No merchant a thousand miles
rom you will take the interest and pleasure in trying to please you as a home merchant. I carry a stock of everything
jo please you. I make prices to get your business and you will make no mistake when you trade with me,

REFLECTIONS OF A BACH¬
ELOR.
Young people have to How
off steam, and their wits blow
of with it.
One of the ways to have some
money once in a while is not to
; own an automobile.
Everybody has some great
weakness, specially the
ty whose weakness is not to be
able to see it.
As a moral example the most
that a man can ever hope to be
is a sign post; a woman can be a
guide.

Child Labor Bill
Here are the requirements of
the compulsory education bill
now before the Iegislatu re:
It applies to children between
the ages of 6 and 18.
It requires only 60 school j
days of attendance each year.
Ic does not affect children
who have had schooling up to
the fourth grade grammar
school. And it enforces only
that much schooling on those
affected.
It does not require attend¬
ance by those who live more
than three miles from the near¬
est school house.
It takes cognizance of the
fact that there will be some
children who are physically or
mentally incapable of attenu-
irig school. It takes cognizance
oi the fact that there will be
some children whose attendance
would work a hardship on par¬
ent Dr child. All such cases are
to be considered by the county
board which is authorized to ex¬
cuse from attendance.
It provides tor the building
of no school houses it does
net create negro schools--it will
not lead the state with extra
! expense.
In short, the bill is drawn
with all deference to existing
conditions in the state—and it
aims only to enforce che giving
of a chance in life to those
white children who are being
blighted by the ignorance and
lazmess of their parents.
Could anything be more hu¬
mane?—Atlanta Georgian-
We have received a nice lot
of moulding and now ready to
frame that picture for you.
