Their has been abuse of the

as an instrument of mercy, recti
fying wrongs and-alleviating harsh
justice, staying punishment when
it has been shown that the debt to
society has been met, yet its abuse
is a tragic travesty on Law and
its foundation.
The fault lays not so much with
the personalities of our executives,
as with faulty statutes which mak
es abuses possible.
A powerful editorial on abuse of
the pardoning power appeared
lately in Atlanta Journal in the

A little more about reestablish

I understand that only four or five
colleges in the country give this
degree, and it makes it very hard
on our Georgia boys who want this

cultural training.
Governor and legislators, won’t

chance?

I hope I’m telling this right, but
I heard that a young fellow who
volunteered and was turned down
by the Army because of cok>r
blindqfss. was accepted by the Air
Corps for the same reason!
This because by being color
blind he would see things that the
normal eye would overlook be
cause of camouflage.
They’ll be taking bald-headed
men next because they could
“shine” the enemies’ eyes! "Ain’t
science wonderful!”
The county agent carried a fine
story in last week's paper about
cleaning lespedeza seed. This is a
great piece of work and means the
saving or building of fine pasture.
It’s a pity that Georgia farmers
are not protected by an adequate
seed law which would prevent
much of the dumping of polluted
weed and dodder-filled seed. It
would amount to a savings of
thousands of dollars . . . what

The story of the Legion meeting
under Commander Moody Sum
mers, calls to mind the outstanding
record of this great Newton Coun

Moody has not only been an in

but has made himself felt all
through middle Georgia.
The Legion is no greater than
its members, and the post in Cov
ington is one of the best in Geor
gia. More power to its efforts.
The editor has a very able edi

the most powerful bill of this ses
