FAILED TO DIP CATTLE,
LOSES $149 BY VERDICT
TIFTON, April 5.— A new angle of
the catib dipping law was parsed on
by Judge Fee in Irwin Superior court.
\ Albert Harper brought an equitable
petition to re: train W., F. Taylor
, 1. t ifi’, from t iling 87 head of cat
; lie belonging to Harper for impound
-lin fees and cost of dipping. Harper
! had originally failed or refused to dip
; his cattle and they had been taken
I under a distress warrant for rent to
j Ocilla, impounded and dipped. They
were then advertised for sale to pay
I th e cost of this proceeding. On hear
j ing the petition, Harper had been al
lowed to give bond in event he should
be held liable for damages and the
cattle were turned over to him until
the case was di nosed of. It came up
for trial at tne regular term. After
the evidence was in the court held
that although Harper had claimed
that he was not given due and legal
notice of the time and place of dip
-1 pings, also that he was ill at the time
land could not dip the cattle that as
’a metier of law and for the protection
iof the public, the state quarantine
officers had the right to impound and
dip cattle when the owner failed or
refused to do so, anc! that said owner
was liable for the costs. The jury
then fixed the amount of costs at $149
(and judgment was taken against Hac
per for that amount. The original
claim was for $239.

MOULTRIE, April s.—Negroes in

work for several months are finding
employment in large numbers in the
Florida truck fields. Recently mm

ings, Fla., where they will put ir
several weeks on a big Irish pofati
farm there. The negroes made (hi
trip through the country in largi
motor trucks which were hired by th<
truck farmers employing the work
ers. The time was when the re
moval of so many laborers at one (hue
j would have caused a how l, hut farm

j help now. Power farming which
rapidly i: being adopted in South
west Georgia has greatly reduced th

Here’s a big, red-blooded picture you 11 revel in! A

to a spot in the West where men and women live

MEANINGS OF WORDS
EXPANDED BY STUDY j
We sometimes speak of a “kind”
person, things of the same “kind :
and again of “man-kind,” hut do we I
ever reflect that the three words
come from the same root? That
wonderful genitt , Shakespeare,
meant more than- a mere play on
words, when he put into Hamlet’s
mouth—who was alluding to his fath
er’s brother—“A little more than
kin, and less than kind.”
A “kind” person is one who treats
other people as his kindred, and by
his words or actions confesses his
i kinship. Things of the “same kind”
, are of the same family. “Man-kind”
includes the whole human race. The
| meaning that gradually unfolds itself
j as a flower develops, leaf by leaf,
is therefore significant and beautiful.
Words we use today meant other
things centuries ago. But there is
always a reason for it. Language
is not a mere haphazard growth bul
a logical development and growth of
a people. , .

Ford, nearing 59, has started a
tremendous peaceful revolution in
