OUR SCHOOLS.
Tune: “Bonnie Blue Flag.”
[To be sung by all Newton county pupils, and
led by Mr. G. M. Mitchell, of Newbcm.]
We come to honor Newton schools,
And sing their praise to-day.
We’ve tried our best to do our best
To make you glad to-day.
We learn our books and sing our songs
And waive our banners high.
You’ll hear our yells and see our smiles,
And always know we try.
CHORUS:
Hurrah! Hurrah! for Newton schools, hurrah ;
Hurrah! for Newton boys and girls
That go to Newton schools.
Our teachers give us all each day
Some task to make us strong:
Good parents love us all so well
We shall not linger long
’Till ev’ry school is better still.
And ev’ry home a light
In which our souls shall upward look
And see a heav’nly sight.
CHORUS.
We love our schools, we love their names,
God bless them ev’ry one ;
We love the groves and hills and vales,
And ev’rywhere we play ;
We love our books and sweethearts too,
With eyes so bright and blue ;
We love the sky and sunshine bright,
And ev’rything and you.
CHORUS.
We dwell on happy sunny slopes
Where birds and blossoms grow;
The wind and brooks they sing us songs
Of love and joy below.
Then parents, teachers help us more
To do our duty well
While childhood’s happy days are here
In Newton’s schools to dwell.
CHORUS.

The Liquor Traffic.
(From Eastman Tirm-a-Journal.)
The people of Georgia should
note that, since the liquor traffic
organized to control legislation,
the Georgia Senate has defeated
every prohibition measure that has
couie before the Legislature. They
work secretly but untiring, and
some of the best-informed men in
the state have known for years
that they look ahead for two or
more years, and plan to get men
elected to the Senate in a sufficient
number of senatorial districts to
give them control of the Senate.
Ami in tins way they r control leg¬
islation as they care to. They find
that the Senators cost no more
per head than representatives and
as it is much less expensive to buy
thirty men than ninety at the
same price and as thiity men is
quite sufficient to control the Sen
ute and thereby the Legislature a3
sensible business men they take
care to manage the election of Sen
atots in a majority of the senator¬
ial districts. It is to be presumed
that, as they need only a safe ma¬
jority of the Senators, they do not
work all the senatorial districts.
As it cannot bo known outside the
secret conclaves of the liquor lords
what districts they are operating
in, it is a duty of Georgians to be
on the alert. Take nothing for
granted, Their employees are
shrewd and their methods soclan
pestine as that, many times they
manage men as candidates and
law makers win intend to do right
and without the men themselves
knowing that they are beng con¬
trolled. But it is evident that
they contract with leaders openly.
Knowing what counts* name
Senators, the supposition is that
they are in constant touch with
their friends in such counties and
when Mecessary they send a man.
And it seems that frequently they
are able to arrange matters with
men they find misrepresenting the
good people of Georgia in the
House. PaOHIBlTTON'IST.

Feminine Philosophy.
The bachelor maid seldom boasts
that she is self made.
Many a true reform is started
in a club—or switch.
By saying her old clothes any
woman can he in style once in a
lifetime.
Most new wrinkles are caused
by worrying over those we already
have.
Ibreafter Nicholas Longv.orth
will bn known as Alice Roosevelt’s
husband.
Photographers are the only per
S"i s who take women at their lace
value.
j S ” me « irl * wush their hair very
r ^ u,arly but ” verlook ^eir i^cks
ami ears.
Every woman likes to be just a
few years younger than the other
| women of her age.
Every man has a right to his!
own opinion until he gets married!
or tells his wife about it.
Only the woman who hasn’t
new furs te wear thoroughly des¬
pises winter weather.
Even the woman who has per¬
fect feet worries all the time for
feai nob 'dv will see them.
Show a girl seventy-one new
styles of shirtwaists and -.lie will
want something different.
J Nearly every mild argument be¬
fore marriage developf into a red
hot dispute.
It is an unkind prouision of Na- lii
ture that makes wrinkles appear |
in the face instead of in the scalp. |
