Flattery never bothers some Deople. They never get it. Half the world is hungry and the other half is acquiring indi gestion. The wise man may become fool ish at times, but the fool can never annex wisdom. When the unexpected happens most people immediately find that they were expecting it. Possibly doctors never take their own medicine because there is no one to pay the bill. If sorqe people were required to think before they spoke tiiev would never say anything. Any one can point out the wisest man in this town. It’s a poor fish who forgets his own name. True, a chronic liar may some times tell the truth, but he prob ably lies about it afterwards. It may be true that there is no rest for the wicked. In fact, ex- Ay ience only confirms us in the *?ief. Some critics might aptly be de scribed as people who talk about one thing while talking about an other. _____ Every property owner possesses one right of which no one ever seeks to deprive him —that of pay ing his taxes. But little is said of the profiteers these days. But possibly people are becoming weary of talking about themselves. Every man is willing to perform his duty, but most of them insist upon making their own decisions as to what constitutes duty. ROUND TRIP SUMMER EXCURSION TICKETS VIA.

The Southern Serves the South. Pushing the Rich Along. The rich man doesn’t get there by his own efforts alone. The poor man keeps pushing him along. Take the matter of locomotion as an example. There was a time when the rich man was glad to ride on a donkey or in an ox cart. The poor man walked. Then some ancient genius de vised the carriage for the benefit of the rich. The poor man climb ed into the old cart or straddled \ the donkey. But the man of nothing was not satisfied. He wanted something. He commenced to climb into the carriage. In time he began to own them. With the poor man bowling along in his carriage, the rich man bethought himself of a new toy — one beyond the reach of common folks. The automobile made its appear ance, with a honk in front and its smell trailing along behind. The rich man was again in a class bv himself. He whizzed by old Dobbin and scared him out of his wits or drove him into the ditch. But it didn’t last. The poor man was stubborn in his deter mination to keep the pace. He declined to stay down. Again time worked its wonders. It saw the poor man climbing into the rich man’s car. Today it sees hin owning his own car. But evolution continues its work. The rich man is now onlv one of the many. He has no class of his own. Therefore he is turning his eye toward the aeroplane as a means of locomotion. Some day he will abandon his car and travel in the air—again above the common herd. But even that will not last. There will he no seclusion for him even in the clouds. The poor man will get there, too. It is a great race, with the rich man sprinting to keep a few laps ahead and the poor man following with mighty leaps and bounds in his efforts to keep abreast. That, if you please, is one w.ay in which the poor man is pushing the rich man along. Some day they may both attain wings—in another world. Sea serpents are no longer con fined to the briny deep. The drug store variety is easier to see and more fearsome to behold. HENRY COUNTY WEEKLY, McDONOUGH, GEORGIA A pipe’s a pal packed with P. A.!
