road eighteen feet wide, we can
not afford to let the road be
built, onlv that wide without
paving the entire width of the
street.
Of course the road "will! be
built without it costing the city
a penny and would it not y be a
good idea for the city to prepare
to float bonds and have the prin
ciple streets paved at the time
the road is built, as it can bo
done then cheaper that at any
other time?
It hasjbeen suggested to the
Tribune, by some of the leading
citizens and taxpayers that at the
next election for city officers
that the idea of paving should be
taken into consideration and a
Mayor and Council be elected,
who would be favorable to a
plan of paving the principle
streets, and help to lift us out of
the mud and mire.
It is only obout one month un
til the city election and it be
hooves us to think about the fu
ture welfare of the the city.

one that it is time'to [get in the

repair the barns and sheds in
order that the dumb animals
may not suffer from cold. It

You have never seen more
ideal weather for farming than
this fall has been and most farm
ers have taken advantage of it
and have their crops gathered in
and plowing well on the way,
Judging from the number of
wagons on the road to and from
the markets, there must be a
good demand for the apple and
cabbage crop, of which Rabun
has a bounteful supply this year.

on our table there was a huge
bouquet of beautiful rose4 and
other rare flowers. In the eve-
ting there was given on each
alternate day a movie’.perform
ance and everyday before tea,
from a six piece ship 'orchestra,
excellently rendered music. We
had a line nights rest, for we
were somewhat worn by our
trip and sightseeing of.'the days
previous, and the cold ocean
breezes,-* with the throbbing of
the engines and rippling of the
waves lulled one to sleep. So
several days passed pleasantly,
the young folks having a big
time going to dances in the first
class the older ones reading
books, or intercoursing on var
ions [ subjects. At mealtime
everyone seemed to enjoy the
wine served, American includ
ed and the prohibition question
got many a knock, but the god
Neptune got ready to demand
his toil, so the waves got higher
and higher, the wind was blow
ing a song through the riggings
of the ship which turned to
howling, the ship lurged more
and more, up and down, and
when it went down one felt as
if the floor was being drawn
from under you. The spray of
the water as the ship was plow
ing through the waves, was
hurled high up and far out, at
times wetting the decks. The
passengers first looked annoyed,
some lay down and wrapped
themselves in blankets, some
said this is awful, and generally
the chirping of the young ones
exchanged to deadly stillness.
Here I thought of the various
remedies that had been recom
mended to me against seasick
ness, such as Mother Sills Sea
sick remedy, Citrocarbonate of
soda and lemon ’juice. Down I
went to tHe cabin to take a dose
and then boast with a merry ‘ha
ha’ my sea worthiness. When I
returned on deck most were
deathly pale, some made swal
lowing motions, like a speaker
that has lost his words, as if
they had a lump in their throat,
but I soon found out that it was
not a lump, but a whole dinner
that struggled for liberation
from the inards and generally
succeeded here and there, I
wondered at how much people
could eat and store in their
stomach. I walked up and down
the deck on that side of the ship
where the wind was blowing
hardest and the air was fresh
and with some cheering up words
tried to eniiyen the fellow pas
sengers, some seemed by now
