Mount Vernon, Ga.. 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.
