GRADATIM
lleav cn ib not reached at a single bound;
But we build the ladder by which we rise
From the lowly eart h to vaulted skies,
And we mount its summit round by round.
I count this thing to be grandly true,
That a noble deed is a step toward God;
Lifting the soul from the common sod
To a purer air and broader view.
We riso by the things that are under our
feet;
By what we have mastered of good and
gain.
By the pride deposed and passion slain.
And the vanquished ills that we hourly
meet.
We hope,, we aspire, we resolve we trust,
When the morning calls us to life and
light;
But our hearts grow weary, and ere the
night
Our lives arc trailing in sordid dust.
We hope, wo resolve, wo aspire, we pray.
And we think that wo mount the air on
wings.
Beyond the recall of sensual things,
While our feet still cling to the heavy clay
Wings for the angels, but feet for menl
We borrow the wings to find the way—
Wo may hope, and resolve, and aspire
and pray.
But our feet must rise, or we fall again.
Only in dreams is a ladder thrown
From the weary earth to tho sapphire
walls;
But the dreams depart and the vision
falls,
And tho sleeper wakes on his pillow of
stone.
Heaven is not reached at a single bound,
But we build the ladder by which wo
rise
From the lowly earth to tho vaulted
skies.
And we mount to its summit round by
round.
—Josiah Gilbert Holland.
Grady county should have a
county wide system of local taxa

done it will be more possible to
have a three teacher school in reach
of every child in the county; and
that is what Grady should have.

A big “Grady Day” will help to
make Grady Greater.
The Coast Line trains usually
Btop where the passengers have to
get off in the mud. This is some
body’s fault. Whose?
It would be mighty fine if Broad
street could be paved within the
fire limits. No trouble to realize
that during the recent rainy
weather,
Now is a good time to agitate
the building of better bridges for
Grady county. A bond issue large
enough to build all the larger
bridges of the county of concret
and steel would save lots of future
trouble and expense.

To the American Public:
Do you believe in arbitration or indus

The train employes on all the railroads
are voting whether they will give their leaders
authority to tie up the commerce of the
country to enforce their demands for a 100
million dollar wage increase..
The railroads are in the public service^—
your service. This army of employes is in
the public service—your service.
You pay for rail transportation 3 billion
dollars a year, and 44 cents out of every
dollar from you goes to the employes.
On all the Southern railroads in 1915, seventy-five percent of the
train employes earned these wage’s
of all) as shown by the payrolls.

A 100 million dollar wage increase for
njen in freight and yard service (less than
one-fifth of all employes); is equal to a 5 per
, cent advance in all freight rates.
The managers of the railroads, as trustees
for the public, have no right to place this
burden on the cost of transportation to you
without a clear mandate from a public tri
bunal speaking for you.
The railroads have proposed the settle
ment of this controversy either under the
existing national arbitration law, or by refer
ence to the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion. This offer has been refused by the
employes’ representatives.
Shall a nation-wide strike or an
investigation under the Gov
ernment determine this issue?
