Get ready for the big SI KIKE.
Buy a tractor and do some pro
gressive farming.
We suggest that the school teach
(rs go on a strike for better salaries.
The girls call it rouge—but paii t
ing seems more appropriate than
rouging.
When we make more money than
it takes to live on, then we will give
you people a better paper.
One difference between a Fordson
Tractor and a Mule is the mule eats
when he is standing up. the tract
or must be fed while it is working.
Messers G. W. Highsmith and
J. L. Herrin brought us some sweet
potatoes last week, and they were
so sweet and good, that we ate too
many, and were late in getting last
week’s paper out.
The farmers would do wed 'o
organize themselves. They could
form the greatest organization in the
United States. They would then
receive the right price for their
products.
A little girl was taking in her
mother's clothes the other when
ehe came to a real pretty colored
skirt, she immediately cried out:
Oh Mother! Please give this skirt,
it just about the right length for my
doll.
DON’T KNOCK BUT KICK
Knockers knock themselves over
in the end. Tkey are pests and we
shun them as pests.
Be a kicker with a purpose. Kick
for something. Kier to get some
where. And kick yourself regularly.
All the great men of history have
been cronic kickers, first they
kicked themselves into shape for
great task Then they kicked for
something and to some purpose
until they landed.
A knocker is never satisfied with
anybody except himself. A kicker
is never satisfied with himself and
gets somewhere.
TEACHERS POORLY PAID
We never can have an advanced
school system in this county, so
long as we are determined not to
pay the teachers a better salary.
In the beginning we want to say
that no one has prompted us to
write this, we are doing it in behalf
of the teachers and not bv request.
The teachers have spent many
years in preparing themselves for
this work. They have spent a con
siderable sum of money in securing
education sufficient to obtain a
school. It is worth an enormous
sum of money to be pestered and
provoked by some hard - beaded
c aild.
A teacher that can teach success
fully, can make a much better liv
ing at some other occupation. That
1 ist reason has caused many to
give up teaching and take up some
thing else that; does not require so
much cussing, study and energy.
Education means something to
that boy or girl. Salaries of the
teachers, it seems to uq have never
increased and as a result a large
majority of the qualified teachers
have quit teaching and some little
slip of a girl, who is not qualified
has taken their place. Now is the
time to correct this—Pay Better
Salaries.
HOME SWEET HOME
Memory rouses at the mere men
tion of that magic word —HOME
And where there’s a home, there’s
a home town.
And where there’s a home town,
there’s a Home Town Paper, which
prints all the news of Home Sweet
Home.
Have it sent to you no matter
where your present home may be.
Keep in touch with your old friends
and their doings. •
Subscribe for Your Home Town
Paper—Do it HOW.
Extra copies of this issue will be
given free to every person who ap
plies, for mailing to a relative or a
friend out of town.
NAHUNTA BOOMING
Nahunta is on the BOOM, there
is not a person who passes through
that can deny the fact, it makes
the citizens of Nahunta proud to
notice the encouraging smile ar d
hear the complemt ntory remarks
of the passer-by.
Now lets get things going better
and get some kind of a manufacb r
ing enterprise started here and give
some of the unemployed work so
that we may hold them here and
also bring more famlies to live in
our town. It is ea«y to see what
the result would be if something
of this kind was put into effect
more people, more houses and more
trade.
REFORMERS ALWAYS BUSY
Ever since the writer can
remember there have been a
few reformers who are always
advocating “Negro’sßights”
The biggest injust ever done
the Southern Negro is the
teaching of him to hate the
Southern Whites. Who is
teaching them this? None
other than the reformer. It
has cost the life of many men.
For the past year or so the
Southern Negroes have been
leaving the South and going
north. Many have returned
and many would gladly re
turn if they could.
The writer has never mis
treated any colored man or
woman nor have we ever ad
vocated that they are not get
ing a just deal.
The recent law giving wo
men the right to vote, also
gives the negro woman the
right to vote, and we are not
going to say that all of the
negro women should be fran
chised, nor should all the ne
gro men be franchise, but we
do not believe that men and
women who live together
without being legally man and
wife, should be allowed to
vote, vhite or black.
We don’t believe that we
would exaggerate it any if we
were to say that 65 per cent
of the negro men and women
who are living as man and
wife have ever been married.
That’s not good citizenship
There is at the present, in
this county, some room for
improving the colored educa-

SCHOOL CHATS
Average for the week 73.5.
The low average was caused by
the Diphtheria Epedtmic.
Perfect spellers in the seventh
grade were Myrtle Stokes, Eula
Brooker, Ada Mae Stewart and
Henrietta Young.
Perfect spellers in the sixth grade
were Isabell Herrin, Leona Lyons,
Fred White and Harry Blocker.
Mrs. U. W. Mackey was the
pleasant visitor to our school Fri
day afternoon.
Mr. Mackey has made a
new rule concerning rouge,
no one is allos ed to attend
school with checks rouged.
It has been stated that Eula
and Lessie will have to re
main at home till the paint
wears off. ’
We consider Mrs. Lewis the
c ib. We always find her, as
we are marching from Chapel
at the rear end.
Mr. Mackey stated that all
boys and girls must hand in
their rubbers they were using
for shooting spit balls. It was
noticed that William, Melvin
and Lee did not hand all in.
While Bill’s was in his (sock)
it is not known where Mel
vin and Lee kept their’s.
