Miss Lizzie Caston, 922 Lee St..
Barnesville, says: “I was troubled
with backaches and disordered kid
neys. Mornings my back felt lame
and sore and when I moved suddenly
a sharp twinge of pain that felt like
a knife stab seized me in the small
of my back. My back was weak and
black specks passed before my eyes.
My kidneys acted too freely but
Doan's Kidney Pills bought at the
Lamur County Drug Cos. cured me of
the trouble. I gladly recommend

have done for me|

GOOD ROADS BONDS
OBJECTIONS ARE
ANSWERED
T. G. Farmer, Jr.,
Replies to Attack
Made on Good
Roads Bond
Issue
1
Declaring that the statement given to
the press a few days ago by Hon. J. M.
Yeomans, of Dawson, attacking the pro
posed bond issue for good roads, con
tains glaring misstatements of facts, T.
G. Farmer, Jr., managing director of
the Georgia Good Roads Association,
has issued a statement in which he
shows how Mr. Yeomans’ article “jug
gles” facts and figures in order to find
a flaw in the plan for issuing bonds to
build good roads.
Mr. Farmer takes the Yeomans ar
ticle paragraph by paragraph and shows
that when the facts in the matter are
truly stated there can be no grounds for
opposing the bond issue for good roads.
Quotation is made from the proposed
constitutional amendment, showing how
the issue of bonds each year will be
limited to the income available for re
tiring them, and that no more bonds
can be issued under the law than the
automobile tag tax and gasoline fees
will retire. *■
Mr. Farmer explains how every pre
caution is taken to see that the bonds
are floated without increasing taxation,
and points out that since fully 65 per
cent of the automobile license fees and
gasoline tax will be paid by cities where
no roads will be built, the question re
solves itself into the city building roads
for the country, which Mr. Farmer
states they will do gladly, if the bond
issue is voted.
The present system of state highways
is so charted that 82 per cent of the
population of the state will be within
fire miles of a state highway, according
to the statement, and Mr. Fanner states
the btrnd plan will enable counties to
build intersecting roads to these high
ways and reach most of our people with
good roads.
The only way the bond issue can be
defeated is by misunderstanding it, ac
cording to Mr. Farmer. “The truth
about the bond plan wins it advocates
wherever it is presented, and we expect
lo try to iee that every voter knows the
truth abowt it before the legislature
Beets in June," he states.

OPPORTUNITY
R. W. Holland —*23
“There is a tide in the affairs of men
Which, taken at the flood, leads on to
fortune;
Omitted, all the voyage of their life
Is bound in shallows and in miseries.”
—Shakespeare.
It is one of the common mistakes
of life to wait for opportunities.
Many persons are looking for some
marked event through which they
hope to develop a very influential
character which now, for lack of mo
tives, is barren and unfruitful.
The real materials out of which
our characters are forming are the
hourly occurrences of every-day life.
Every claim of duty, the employ
ment of each minute, the daily wor
ries or trials we are called upon to
bear, the momentary decisions that
must be made, the occassional inter
view, the contact with sin or sorrow
in every-day life, these and many
others are real opportunities. We
are continually embracing or neglect
ing these, and thus form a character
into the shape we give it of good or
evil. If we watch through a single
day, we shall discover hundreds of
opportunities of doing and receiving
good, which we have heretofore
passed with indifference, and by dili
gently seeking and embracing these,
we may prepare ourselves to take ad-
vantage of future opportunities that
may appear for our good. A man’s
opportunity usually has some rela
tion to his ability. It is an opening
for him to use what he has faithfully,
and to the utmost. Any man who
thinks he is worthy of a higher posi
tion than is offered him, or thinks
the opportunity too insignificant to
be embraced, is very likely, in after
years to see his folly. There ar?
very many young men all about us
who want to gain wealth, and yet
they scorn many an opportunity that
our really rich men would have im
proved, They do not want to begin
at tiie foot of the ladder, as others
do, but half way up. They want a
lift from somebody so that they can
avoid the struggles of the really suc
cessful.
The most unsuccessful of men are
those who think they could do great
things, provided only they had the
opportunity. But something has al
ways prevented them, held them back
so that they could not carry out their
plan. They knew just how to suc
ceed, but lacked the opportunity.
A man cannot expect great oppor
tunities to meet him all along through
his life like milestones by the way
side. Usually he has one or two; if
he neglects them, he is like the man
who takes the wrong road where sev
eral meet. The farther he goes, the
worse he fares. In the life of the
most unlucky person, there are al
ways some occasions by which he may
win the thing he has at heart.
There is nobody whom Fortune does
not visit once in his life. But when
she finds he is not ready to receive
her, she goes in at the door and out
through the window.” Opportunity
is coy. The careless, the slow, and
the lazy fail to see her or seize her
until after she has gone. The sharp
fellow detects her instantly and seizes
her on the wings.
It is not sufficient to wait for op
portunity, we must meet it even
though improved when it comes. We
must not only strike the iron while
it is hot, but make it hot by striking. I
In other words, if opportunity does
not present itself, we must try our
best to compel its attendance. In
one respect, opportunity is to time
as time is to eternity; it is the small
moment, the exact point, the critical
minute, on which every good work
depends. It is not accident that
helps a man in the world, but pur
pose and persistent industry. These
make a man sharp to discover oppor
tunities and to take advantage of
them. To the feeble, the sluggish,
and purposeless, the happiest oppor
tunities amount to nothing. They
pass them by- seeing no meaning in
them. But to the wide-awake and
energetic man, they are occasions of
great moment, the improvement of
which in no small degree contribute
to his ultimate success.
