PARABLE OF THE INDI
VIDUAL AND THE MASS
There had been a War; and when
it was ended, and the Boys Came
Home, then after a Space of Certain
Months was there a Great Naval Pa
rade. And I took the daughter of
the daughter of Keturah. And we
had a fine seat, and we saw all that
was to be seen. And as we came
away, there stood a Guard at the
Gate where the Reserved Seats were,
and he saluted ns as we passed out.
Anri we came again home, and the
daughter of Keturah inquired of the
little damsel concerning that which
she had seen. And she asked, Didst
thou see the Procession, and Hear
the Bands, and see the Admiral and
all his officers?
And the little girl answered and
said, Yes, Mother, and I saw a Sailor
Boy.
She had seen Twenty Thousand
Sailor Boys counting the Marines and
the Naval Aviators; but the Sailor
who saluted us at the gate impressed
her more than them all.
Now this I considered, for there
are many times when the Individual
is more than the Mass. For Colum
bus was more than the men who
•sailed his three Ships; Yea, Columbus
made even the Ocean seem small.
And Moses upon Sinai maketh the
mountain as it were an Ant-Hill.
And there he times when One Man,
and he a man chosen of God for a
Great Work, standeith out on the rim
of the Horizon more than an Whole
Volume of the Census Reports.
But I thought yet further of what
the little girl said, and 1 think for
ward with happy foreboding to a day
that yet shall be. For her mother,
even the daughter of Keturah came
to her mother and me in the years
gone by and we said, Daughter, thou
hast been to College and Ithou hast
been to Europe, and thou hast seen
much; tell us, what hast thou seen?
And she said, 0 my father and my
mother, I have seen a Young Man.
And we spake kindly to our daugh- .
ter and would not have had it other- 1
wise, but it was a solemn day for me
and Keturah.
Yea, and the like message did
Keturah take home to her parents,
and that is an interesting fact to me.
And I have always been Rather Hap
py to remember that I was of more
interest to Keturah than the Whole
Procession, including the Band.
For a Democratick Naition can
never afford to forget that God
careth for Individual Souls. And so
did Keturah and the daughter of
Keturah. Waltchman-Examiner of

FINE COMMUNITY MEETING
• The Community meeting at Milner
last Friday evening was a very inter
esting and helpful one, bringing the
citizens of that community together
to consider mutual interests. The
club was recently organized and sets
an example which every community
should follow.
Mr. Luther Holmes, president, pre
sided at the meeting Friday evening
and a splendid program was render
ed, all of which was very much en
joyed.
Hon. T. It. Talmadge, manager
the Southern Cotton Oil Cos., of For
syth, made a talk in which he pre
sented in detail the production and
handling of peanuts. He told how
to prepare the land and to plant
them. He said his company at For
syth would guarantee to buy all the
peanuts which the farmers of Lamar
county would grow this year and pay
the market price for them. His talk
was very interesting and instructive
and made a splendid impression.
There was every indication that a
number of farmers of the Milner
community would plant considerable
acreage in peanuts this year.
Hon. Sam Rutherford followed Mr.
Talmadge in an inspiring talk, in
which he commended very highly the
citizens of the Milner community in
coming to gethcr in such an organiza
| ‘ion. He told of the advantages of
Middle Georgia for producing profit
ably almost everything which could
bo grown anywhere and told of his
purpose, after a thorough investiga
tion. to plant from five to ton acres
to the plow on his farms in peanuts.
:! stated that he believed the boll
w evil would make it practically im
possible to successfully grow cotton
>n this section due to tile usual heavy
tain fall . in duly every year. Col.
Rutherford made a strong and im
pressive talk Which was very much
appreciated.
There were other interesting fea
tures of the program which added
deasure to the occasion. The ladies
| served delicious refreshments, eon
isting of sandwiches and punch. It
was a very delightful and helpful
met ting.

Why Druggists Recommend
Swamp-Root
For many years druggists have
watched with much interest the re
markable record maintained by Dr.
Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great kid
ney, liver and bladder medicine.
It is a physician’s prescription.
Swamp-Root is a strengthening
medicine. It helps the kidneys, liver
and bladder do the work nature in
tended they should do.
Swamp-Root has stood the test of
years. It is sold by all druggists on its
merit and it should help you. No other
kidney medicine has so many friends.
Be sure to get Swamp-Root and
start treatment at once.
However, if you wish first to test
this great preparation send ten cent*
to Dr. Kilmer & Cos., Binghamton, N.
Y*, for a sample bottle. When writ
ing be sure and mention this paper.

A superstition survives in many
parts of England that if a person’s
hair ,when thrown into the fire, burns

ASPIRIN
Name “Bayer” on Genuine
Warning! Unless you see the
name ‘Bayer” on package or on tab

pirin prescribed by physicians for
twenty-one years and proved safe by

in the Bayer package for Colds,

Calomel salivation is horrible. It
swells the tongue, loosens the teeth
and starts rheumatism. There’s no
reason why a person should take
sickening, salivating calomel when a
few cents buys a large bottle of Dod
son’s Liver Tone—a perfect substi
tute for calomel. It is s pleasant
vegetable liquid which will your
liver iust as surely as calomel, but
it doesn’t make you siak and can pot
salivate.
Calomel is a dangerous drug, be
sides it may make you feel weak,
sick and nauseated tomorrow. Don’t
lose a day’s work. Take a spoonful
of Dodson’s Liver Tone instead and
you will wake up feeling great. No
salts necessary. Your druggist says
if you don’t find Dodson's Liver
Tone acts better than treacherous
calomel your money is waiting for
you.
NEVER RECOGNIZE DEFEAT,
USE IT FOR VICTORY
Until we admit to ourselves (that
we have failed, we have a chance
to win. He who refuses to recognize
defeat, but uses it for final victory
is more powerful than a king.
Alexander Dumas puts fthis spirit
into Cardinal Richelieu. We find it
in the character of every power be
hind a throne. No man can win
every contest. All of us must lose
some time, and some of the greatest
men of history failed in every under
taking until the last. Abraham Lin
coln, great because of his obscure
beginning and his hard, steady climb
under the most adverse conditions,
really lost every important under
taking of his career until at last he
won the presidency of the United
States. He made a gigantic failure
in his first business venture, and was
overwhelmed with debt during seven
teen years thereafter. He met with
disappointment in love. He tried to
get political appointment and failed.
Ran for Congress and failed. Ran
for United States Senate and was
badly beaten. Tried to get the Vice-
Presidency but lost. But he consid
ered that each struggle was a school
ing, and he turned his lesson to good
account.
The rougher your experiences, the
more they should teach you. The
student who never gets any hard les
sons will never amount to much. A
man who has no hard times and sad
disappointments is not seasoned for
life’s great game.
If we quit trying merely because
we failed a few times we don’t de
serve to succeed.
There is ndt in all literature a great
author whose writings were not for
a long time believed to be unworthy
of notice. And no doubt a number
of geniuses lived and died unheard-of
merely because they didn’t have the
staying qualities.
As in statesmanship and literature,
i so it has been in all of the important
1 walks of life. The great Napolean
| was at one time so downcast and dis
j heartened because of his family pov
erty and his inability to get the ad
vantages that other boys enjoyed, he
is said to have been arrested for try
ing to drown himself in the river at
Paris. He barely had enough grit
to carry him to success.
Robert Bruce of Scotland and
thousands of others almost lost their
nerve just a few moments too soon,
and their lives prove conclusively
that the darkest hour is just before
the light brtaks on us.
Don’t give up as long as you can
breathe.—Exchange.

RECITAL AT FREDONIA
SATURDAY, APRIL 22
The Bessie Tift Glee Club and
Dramatic Art Department will give
a recital at Fredonia Church Satur
day evening, April 22, sponsored by
the young people of Fredonia and
Prospect churches. The community
has been exceedingly fortunate in
having the opportunity of presenting
these talented artists of rare charm
and ability. The public is assured
that this will be an occasion of real
enjoyment.
Come and bring your friends with
you.
Performance begins at 7 :30 P. M.
Admission 25c; children under 12,
10c.
THE PEANUT INDUSTRY
Every farmer of Lamar county
could well afford, according to the
information available, to plant from
five to ten acres to the plow in pea
nuts. He has got to turn away from
cotton for a money crop and this
acreage will give him another chance
to make a profitable crop. The
Southern Cotton Oil Cos. at Forsytth
guarantees to buy the peanut crop,
provided it is the little White Spanish
variety, at the market price prevail
ing at that time. The record shows
that the average price the past few
years has been around SIOO per ton,
although the price went down much
lower than the past season and it is
now about $75 per ton. From 700
to 2000 pounds can be raised per
acre and this shows that there can
be good profit in growing peanuts.
Every farmer, therefore, can afford
to try out a few acres to the plow
and should do so. The peanut in
dustry is growing and there is indi
cation that it will become much more
important and profitable in the near
future.
The issue of the Macon Telegraph
last Saturday contained the follow
ing editorial on the industry, which
may be read with interest:
Most of us who have not given a
large amount of thought to the pea
nut industry are surprised when we
learn that the peanut crop of the
United States in 1918 was approxi
mately 53,000,000 bushels, valued at
$100,000,000; while in 1921 we pro
duced about 4,000,000 hogs.
Practically all of these peanuts
came from twelve Southern States.
The most productive peanut States
are Alabama, with 410,000 acres;
Georgia, 224,000; Texas, 184,000;
Virginia, 138,000; Florida, 115,000;
North Carolina, 113,000, and other
Southern States about 80,000 acres.
The marketing of such a vast crop
is naturally difficult. In the past,
peanuts have been sold mostly
through brokers, but the peanut
growers have had some difficulty in
disposing of their crop through these
channels and are now turning to the
auction. Announcement has just
been made that the first car of pea
nuts ever offered through auction is
to be sold at the New York sales
room of the Fruit Auction Company
on April 5.
Although such a vast quantity of
peanuts are grown in the United
States, great quantities are also im
ported. In the first ten months of
1919, nearly 20,000,000 gallons of
peanut oil were imported into this
country mostly from China and Ja
pan.
In addition to being used for hu
man consumption in their natural
form, in peanut butter, peanuit oil,
. oleomargarine, soap, etc., peanuts
are used extensively as feed for all
live stock. After extracting the oil
from peanuits, a meal is produced
which is very valuable as a food, be
ing exceptionally high in proteins
and fats.
If people generally knew more
about the food value of peanuts, the
chances are that growers could not
keep up with the demand. One
pound of peanuts yields 2,500 cal
ories, which is about three times as
much energy as a person would de
rive from one pound of beef and
about twice as much as would be dr
rived from one pound of cheese.
Peanuts are as solid a food as bread,
butter, meat and potatoes.
