Thursday Morning, April 5, 1917. Well, it begins to resemble the real thing, with the frills drop ping ofT. Time to inaugurate a spring cleaning—publicly and privately. Sanitary laws are as important as those statutory, as in many cases the neglect of the former is more severe than punishment for violation of the latter. The most impudent thing we have seen lately is a pair of pota to bugs riding an Irish potato bud as it sprang from the earth. Nothing will eat a potato bug, and only heavy doses of poison can damage his constitution. If Germany is ever called on to answer for all her sins, she will never be able to pay the debt. She can never restore that which she has taken; under the com mon law of retribution she has not enough substance to deliver her subjects from slavery during the process. The Tattnall .Journal is adver tising for twenty-five corres pondents. This would give it one in each community of the county. No country paper can secure the county news without the aid of correspondents, and but few of them have this co operation. There is a woeful lack of appreciation of the coun ty paper along this line. There are two classes of doers: The doers and the undoers. The former has a difficult problem to keep ahead of the latter. The doers have the satisfaction of trying to accomplish something, however hampered; the undoers enjoy the satisfaction of being dead weights in the pull for suc cess and achievement. Which class do you belong to? Many farmers and stock rais ers of this county are carrying over hogs which should have been made into meat, and some have lost meat on account of un favorable weather conditions. A packing plant will solve this dif ficulty. Sentiment is strongly in favor of a plant in Mt. Ver non, and only a little elfort will be required to install it. The manhood of Georgia should combine in one vast array of de termination to see the recent pro hibition measure enforced. If there was sentiment sufficient to enact it, there should be in Geor gia a force equal to its protection. No law ever written on our statute books is better calculated to protect the interest of Georgia than this, and every loyal Geor gian should take a pride in its en forcement. The man who seeks to rob this law of its significance and intent is a criminal at heart. Administrator's Sale.
