ADVICE TO THOSE WHO
DESIRE PUBLICITY
All papers welcome items of infor¬
mation and articles relating to civil
and social activities,. and while this
paper is always willing to co-operate
for a worty object, it is not out of
place, we believe, to ask the co-opera
tion of those furnishing such articles.
In this way greater accuracy may be
obtained and the public will be better
served.
If an item is worthy of being re¬
ported it should be sent in at once,
not two or three days after the event
has taken place.
If an article is written on a type¬
writer always double space. It is easi¬
er to edit and much easier for the lin¬
otype man. He has his eyes on manu¬
script steadily for eight hours a day
and it is not brotherly, to say the least,
to expect him to impair his eyesight
even over a most meritorious story. If
written with a lead pencil use a soft
one that will make a good clear mark,
and don’t write on both sides of the
paper. This latter method generally in¬
sures a direct route to the wastepaper
basket. These requests are reasona¬
ble for it entails no additional work
on the part of the writer.
In telephoning an item it is always
well to spell out proper names. There
are generally several ways of spelling
a name and the owner of the name
has the right to expect that his selec¬
tion will be the one used In the paper.
Proper names, by the way, are the
hardest to understand over a phone.
Conversation proceeds nicely until the
name of some person used. Then, be¬
cause of unfamiliarity of theat partic¬
ular name, or perhaps the enexpected
use of it, the sounds on the phone be¬
come deceptive. The receiver of the
message is not applying any Edison
test Ifhe says: “Spell the name.”
These are little things, perhaps, but
the observance of them helps toward
a cheerful day and a better newspa¬
per.—Exchange.
EDUCATING THE WHOLE FAMILY
This is the end of education week.
The nation was asked to give its
first and best thought this week to fur¬
thering education.
There are twenty-five thousand peo¬
ple within twenty miles of Moultrie
who will never attend school again.
So far as "schooling” is concerned
they are through. They can improve
their education as long as they live
by daily reading.
Subscribe for a newspaper.
Start with the county newspaper,
and induce every member of the fam¬
ily to read It. The wife can make the
newspaper a source of profit by read¬
ing the advertisements. All the family
can gain information from it and in
formation is education,
Take one of the state newspapers,
Subscribe for a paper devoted to the
line of business . you are engaged in.
Take one or two magazines.
Buy a few books every year and
read them.
The man who has been to school
three months and reads newspapers.
magazines and books, is better edu
eated than the college graduate who
never reads.
It is not too late to improve your
education,
It is not an expensive task nor an
unpleasant one to gain education
through reaching.—Moultrie Observer.

A GROUP OF DREAM LYRICS
BY PEOPLE WE KNOW
The Dream
The mystery of dreaming
Events that come a-teeming
Within the brains confine
Doth fret me so
What joy to know
The ecstasy of feeling.
Intuition clear revealing
Swift knowledge to refine.
—May Anderson.
Dream Friends
The people of my daily life
The people of my dreams
So different are, as peaceful streams
From rapid torrents strife,
O kindly people of my dreams
Your memory I prize
You come to me so seeming wise
Alight with Heavenly gleams.
O people of my Daily life
You pass me by with scorn
Your very glance leaves me forlorn
i Since ’tis with coldness rife.
Thus marvel not I love thee best
My kindly dreamfelt friends
Since glad they come their presence
lends
Me joyous peace and rest.
—May Anderson McVey.
TALES OF WOE.
It was midnight on the ocean,
Not a street car was In sight,
The sun was shining, brightly, and
It rained all day and night.
’Twas a winter day in summer.
The rain was snowing fast,
While a barefoot boy with shoes on
Sat standing in the grass.
It was evening, and the rising
Sun was setting in the west;
The little fishes in the trees,
Were huddled in their nest;
The rain was pouring up,
The moon was shining bright,
And everything that you could see
Was hidden out of sight;
While the organ peeled potatoes,
Lard was rendered by the choir;
While the sexton rang the dish-rag
Someone solftly hollered fire;
Holy smoke: cried the preacher,
In the rush he lost his hair,
Now his head it looks like Heaven
For there is no parting there,
—Exchange.

Beauty and Health Go Hand in Hand
Fort Thu mas, Ky. — “Several years
ago I had become So poor and weak from

couid not walk arotmd in my room with¬
out holding to the furniture or having

at times I could hardly endure any one

taking Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription
and in three monti s’ time 1 gained medicine 20
pounds. I continued taking the

HEALTHFUL VIGOR
INSTRONG BLOOD
Rich, Red Blood Built Up by Pepto
Mangan—Liquid or Tablet.
Blood is strong and full of life-giving
vigor when there are plenty of red cells
in it. Anaemic people have little
strength because there are not enough
led cells in the blood. It is thin and
watery. Weak blood makes faees pale,
pulls down the strength and leaves the
body tired, weak and sickly,
A course in Gude’s Pepto-Mangan re¬
stores weak blood to its normal strength
Taken regularly for a while it adds red
cells to the blood. Then with good
blood, the strength and vigor of health
return. There is pleasure in living,
with good blood running through the
veins. Gude’s Pepto-Mangan is put up
in liquid and in tablet form. They are
the same medicinally. Physicians
prescribed Gude’s P^p^o-Mangan for
years. The name "Guds’s
gan” is on the package. Advertisement.
