EDITORIAL NOTES.
Judge Walter F. George, of
Vienna, candidate for the United
States Senate in the primary Tues
day of next week, October 17th, in
our opinion, is by far the most ac
ceptable man in the race to succeed
the late lamented Senator Thomas E.
Watson. This statement is not in
tended in any way to be a reflection
on any of the other candidates, but
as we view it Judge George’s candi
dacy affords the people of the State
a splendid opportunity to go outside
all the old time partisan, political
factions and select a man, who, in
character, ability and statesmanship
will measure up to the very highest
standards and who, therefore, should
be acceptable to the citizenship of
the entire state. \
Judge George’s record, as a judge
of the superior court, court of ap
peals and the supreme court, as a
man meeting every responsibility as
a citizen, and as a ctu'istian gentle
man standing for the highest, best

and purest things in private and pub
lic life, should commend him to
every voter in the state as a man
worthy of any honor in the gift of
the people. Any mother in Georgia
can vote for Judge George and then
point to him as an example worthy
for her son to follow.
Judge George has all the qualifica
tions for the office and he would re
flect the highest credit on Georgia as
one of the state’s representatives in
the United States Senate. He will
unquestionably, according to all in
dications, lead the race next Tuesday,
if he does not actually win the nomi
nation in the first race.
Let’s vote for him.
Tuesday, the opening Cay of the
Lamar County Fair, and designated
by the fair management as Lamar
County and School day, was one of
the greatest days in the history of
Bamesville and Lamar county. The
crowd present was variously esti
mated as being between 2,500 and
5,000, and the entire day was a tre
mendous success. Nearly everybody
went into the fair grounds, viewed
the exhibits, took in all the midway
shows, and spent the balance of tl)e
time in greeting friends and neigh
bors and patronizing the various
lunch stands scattered throughout
the fair grounds. Everybody was in
a good humor and expressed surprise

at the magnitude of the fair. The
crowd kept coming and going until
a late hour at night. The success of
the day’s program shows what can
be done whep citizens work together
in any undertaking. Tuesday alone
is worth what the whole fair this
year cost. Congratulations to the
officials and all in charge.

In the discussion going on about
the race for the United States Sen
ate next Tuesday, the race for Pen
sion Commissioner, made necessary
by the death of the late Judge Lind
sey, has somewhat been lost sight of.
We believe Hon. Charles E. Mc-
Gregor shonld be elected. He is a
notable Confederate veteran and a
man of force and ability. Another
thing in his favor is his proposition,
if elected, to restore Mr. Sam Askew
to his position as clerk in the Pen
sion Department. Mr. Askew is one
of the most efficient and deserving
citizens of the state, having for
years filled the position of clerk in
the Pension Department. Although
afflicted and haying to get about in
a roller chair, Judge Lindsey’s suc
cessor turned him out of office, it is
understood, solely because of his
vote in the recent governor’s race.
It shows how cruel politics can be
sometimes. If there was nothing
else in Mr. McGregor’s favor this
should insure his election.

Probably never in the world’s his
tory was the need for benevolence
and philantln-opy greater than at the
present time. The ringing) cry cbmes
from all parts of the world. Even
here in our own immediate midst
there are cases of distressing need
and the hearts and purses of men
and women should be open to a gen
erous response. There is little doubt
that right at our doors bebies and
children of the poor are literally
starving to death or dying for want
of proper attention. The pity of it!
The officials of the Associated Chari
ty organizations of Bamesville and a
few liberal people are responding to
the best of their ability, but, they
need help from others who are
abundantly able to help in the work
of relief made necessary by condi
tions or unfortunate circumstances.
You could not do a better thing on
this earth than try to help in this no
ble work.
To Stop a Cough Quick
take HAYES’ HEALING HONEY, a
cough medicine which stops the cough by
healing the inflamed and irritated tissues.
A box of GROVE’S O-PEN-TRATE
SALVE for Chest Colds, Head Colds and
CrouD is enclosed with every bottle of
HAYES’ HE AUNG HONEY. The salve
should be rubbed on the chest and throat
of children suffering from a Cold or Croup.
The healing effect of Hayes' Healing Honey in
side the throat combined with the healing effect of
Grove's O-Pen-Trate Salve through the pores of
the skin soon stops a cough.
Both remedies are packed in one carton and the
cost of the combined treatment is 35c.
Just ask your druggist for HAYES'
HEALING HONEY.
RED GROSS WINNING
IN FIGHT FOR HEALTH
Better, Stronger Citizenry Now
Emerging Out of Work in
United States. >
The American Red Cross as an
evangelist of better health has looked
its problem square In the face. How
It accepted the task revealed to it in
the nation’s physical condition as
brought out during the World War,
and conscientiously applied its activi
ties to correction forms a vivid chap
ter In the forthcoming annual report.
Historically and practically, nursing is
a basic work for the Red Cross. In its
public health nursing service, in in
struction in home hygiene and care of
the sick, nutrition classes, first aid
and life saving courses and health cen
ters, the American Red Cross is ap
plying effectually the lessons learned
during the war and making for a
healthier, stronger and better nour
ished citizenry.
The task of the Red Cross Public
Health nurse in the 1,240 nursing serv
ices now operating throughout the
country instructing their communities
In health essentials and disease pre
vention is demonstrating tlie possibili
ties of human betterment and the great
benefits of enlightenment.
During the last year 313 new public
health nursing services were establish
ed by Red Cross Chapters, and several
hundred services so convincingly prov
ed their effectiveness that they were
taken over by public authorities. In
order to promote this work .$30,000 was
nllotted to provide women to prepare
themselves for public nursing. The
home visits made by the 1,240 nurses
aggregated nearly 1,500,000, visits to
schools numbered 140,000, and In six
months 1,250,000 school children were
inspected by these nurses and where
defects were found advised examina
tion by physicians. In rural commu
nities this service has made a very
marked advance and hns won thou
sands of converts to approved methods
of disease prevention.
In home hygiene and care of the sick
Instruction, which fits the student In
methods of proper care where Illness Is
not so serious as to require profes
sional service, the Red Cross conduct
ed 3,884 classes during the last year,
enrolled 2,356 instructors, 93,448 stu
dents and issued 42,656 certificates.
On June SO, 1922, nutrition service
embraced 1,199 classes, with a total of
27,523 children and 2,589 enrolled dieti
tians. Seventy-eight food selection
classes graduated 733 who received
Red Cross certificates. In general
health activities Red Cross Chapters
maintained 377 health centers, serving
as many communities, provided 88,751
health lectures for large audiences ev
erywhere, while clinics numbered over
10,000.
Red Cross Gains
Strength in All
Foreign Fields
In insular possessions of the United
States and in foreign lands the Ameri
can Red Cross scored heavy gains dur
ing the lost year, passing the pre
vious membership high mark of 11)18
by 4,2(11 and advancing the figure to
150,408. The Philippines take the
lead, gaining nearly 100 per cent, now
having 115,917 members. In Europe
the 1021 Roll Call enrolled 11,125,
with the Constantinople Chapter re
porting (505, a gain of .’lll members.
China was 1,782 members, a gain of
590; the little Virgin Islands have
1.000, while the Dominican Republic
with 2,027 advanced from Its previous
high mark by 1,428 new members.
Haiti, organized in 1020, now lias
nearly 1,000 enrolled. Mexico reports
354, a gain of 327 in one year. The
American Red Cross has.spread its
membership over some 70 foreign
lands and its Junior membership out
side of the United States is dose te
700,000.
Red Cross Water
First Aid Makes
Life-Saving Gain
More than 325 Chapters engaged In
life saving or water first aid last, year
with the result that the American Ited
Cross Life Saving Corps has set anew
high mark for enrollment and the
number -of qualified IJfe savers de
veloped. The influence of “learn to
swlin week” in many localities is re
ducing the wafer fatalities through in
struction and the wider dissemination
of resuscitation methods demonstrated
by the Ited Cross representatives. Ex
cellent work has been done in teaching
a large part of the American popula
tion how to take care of itself in the
water. Growing appreciation for this
Red Cross Life-Saving Service is
shown by the compulsory instruction
adopted in many cities for members of
the police and fire departments in the
prone pressure method of resuscita
tion.
Help to Help Others
You can't “give untii.it hurts”-—for
giving an American dollar to join the
American Ited Cross helps you to help
others who are hurt and who need re
lief. -

People like to go to the circus.
B.ut they don’t like to dress up
as clowns. Give the average
man freaky,ginger bread y style
and he’ll laugh at you.
We steer clear of wild style.
Good style doesn’t have to be
flamboyant.
Our idea of really fine style is
the kind you’ll see in Griffon
Suits and Overcoats.
They are correct. They have
the honest “all wool” look.
They have the deliberate tail

the promise of long life.
