My reply is that we don't have to

Amertcuz officers have been apprised
of the fact that the reward for tho
capture of Love Randall, the Stewart
county negro who brutally muntored
Richard A. Stratford some weeks ago,
has beon Increased to $800—the largast
on record In Georgia for the apprehen
sion of a negro criminal cbaTged with
a similar offense. The authorities are
now of tho opinion that the negro has
succeeded In getting out of Georgia
and they are directing their efforts to

cers In other sections vrtthi a view of

end, thousands of post cards have been

IMMIGRATION AGENT IS
INVITED TO AMERICUS.
Board of Trade Wants Him
As Its Guest.
No Substitute.
Yesterday President John W. Shiver,
of the Amer.'cus Board of Trade, wired
an Invitation to Mr. J. F. Jackson, Im
migration agent of the Central of
Georgia railway, to be sure and In
clude Amerlcus In bis Itinerary and
to be the guest of the Americus Board
of Trade while In the city.
Mr. Jackson Is :he new official sent
to the Central by the Illinois Central,
his business being to study the country
along the lino of the Georgia Central
and devote tts energies to making itt
advantages and possibilities known tc
the farmers of the west and northwest,
with a view to Inducing Immigration
from those sections to the territory
traversed by the lines of the Central
of Georgia.
Sumter county Is particularly Inter
ested In the work of the new official
of the Central road. This county hie
now the finest system of highways m
the state, Ito climate Is recognised an
superb, and 1U lands are coming Into
an enviable reputation aa among the
most productive In the south. All that
Is needed to Induce some of tho most
desirable Immigrants to this county
Is to let them know what la offered
here. That will bo the business of the
new laud and immlgraUon agent
There 1s hardly any doubt that Mr;
Jackion will accapt the Invitation of
the Board of Trade. When he arrives
he will be shown over ths county,
brought Into touch with ths buflness
men, and otherwise given as Intimate
knowledge of condlUons here at

It Is so easy to see other people's
faults and frailties, a&d It is so easy
to speak of them. It ought to be
equally easy to see their virtues and
to uttter words of praise, yet we sel

lacked something; but the cake was

many successes Instead of ber
failure.
It is not only In her criticisms, how
ever, that the girl who says what she
thinks makes herself a nuisance. She
Is apt to force her opinions upon other
people as 4f they were ttje only opin
ions In the world. Because she thinks
a thing Is right, does not make It right,
and an undue inststance.upon one's
own point of view may result In a ren-
utatlon for narrow-mindedness and
prejudice.
It Is not pleasant to have our heroes,
our pet theories, our fads questioned,
yet the girl who says what she thinks
never hesitates to attack our religion
our politics, our taste In literature or
music or art. Recently, I heard a’ girl
In the presence of a little lady who
loves her church, make a comment
about the rector of thztt church which
was both unpleasant and uncalled for.
Tho llttlo lady's feelings were hurt, but
tho g$rl consoled herself with' tho
thought that she had told the truth.
But why need she have said anything
about the rector? Would not silence
In this caso have been golden? Life Is
too short to mal^e people unhappy. It
there had been something nice to say
about the little lady’s ministerial hero,
then would have been the time to
speak, and then only.
Personally, I believe that one would
better praise too much than not pra'ie
at all. You may know that little broth
er has freckles and that little sister's
hair Is red. but need you speak of these
things and thereby gain their hatred.
Why not rather admire little brother's
strength and little slstsr's graceful
ness. Afore children are made aelf-
conscious by criticism than are made
vain by praise.
The girl who says what she thinks
should ask herself “Do I always think
unpleasant things, and la this why 1
say unpleasant thing*?” When she
has thus examined herself she may
find a definite need for reform. Let
her strive to tUnk good things and say
them. There need, then, be no limit to
her expression of her thoughts.
