I ' Ch vfulnejss, is a fi e heartening
j thing end I wonder do e value it as
iif'.hly as it deserves? I think the
T. t-'imart class does as there is hard¬
ly a minute in the day if you take
your eyes from your book that you do
not see somebody smiling. We all like
cheerful people and so we try to be
cheerful. We all like to laugh some
limes and I am sure that we laugh
enough. It’s a wonder we don't run
our teacher crazy. But we have dif¬
ferent kinds of teachers from most
pu i- ’ They like cheerfulness espec¬
ially he Freshman teachers and w<
| very proud of them. Why? Be¬
{ are

bright side, they’re living on the
)>: It*Pit side. No Wonder with such
leach, -rs we study so hard, if the Sen¬
iors don’t watch out the Freshmans
will study so hard they will beat them
next month,
i We were very glad to have Mr. Tomb

hope as many as can from our class
will attend.

WHATLEY
‘USE GEORGIA PRODUCTS/
Dr.. Anddrew M. SouJe„ -who is mak¬
ing a sort of agricultural ci-ujfe.de
throughout the state, says that “Geor¬
gia must us?"more Georgia products.”
This time, - as a ■ prominent lady of
' New York is credited with saying, he
“spoke *a mouthful.” Because there
is no use urging farmers to raise food¬
stuffs and live stock if either is going
to be a drug on their hands. Farmers
will tell you that they have diversified
their crops this year, but that they
cannot sell them. There is something
else besides high freight rates against
them, and that is the indisposition of
cities and towns to buy Georgia pro
ducts. Dr. Soule states that even yet,
much of the produce used by thg#cit
izens of this state, including the ftwin
.V'
ers, is coming from outside Georgia,
and taking money which should re
main in the state, to other sections of
the country.
Dr. Soule strongly urged a .‘Use
Georgia Products" campaign -for' the
state. ' 3
If the railroads and the neighbors
will help out the Georgia farmer, bis
condition will be improved. Ha; has
shown a disposition to diversify, hut he
will never be able to use these varied
products as a money crop Ontii he
can find nearby markets. Why Geor¬
gia people will not buy Georgia raided
provisions and meat, we do not under¬
stand.— Savannah Press.
ONE JJEASON FOR MONEY ORDERS
A farmer carrying an express fm.ck
age from a Chicago mail order house
was accosted by a local merchant.
“Why did’nt you buy chat bill of gopds
from me? I could avod you the; ex¬
press and besides you would have*;been
patronizing a home store which l<*lps
to pay the taxes at i builds up Ijus
locality.”
The farmer looked at the merchant
a moment and then said; “Why doju't
you patronize- your home vapor D
ADVERTISE. 1 read it and DIDa T
KNOW YOU - had the stuff 1 Tt-j-ve
here.” — Worth County CdeM.
