The True Citizen THB SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST Waynesboro, Ga n October 30, 1926 SHOOTING THE BULL To begin with, this is no “bull, which in modern parlance refers to prolixity. The subject of the story is a real, live, honest-to-goodness bull, possessing all of the annoying propensities of the breed. He hap pens to be the property of Mr. Hans Manau. Some few nights ago, in the wee sma’ hours, a terrific bellowing, hoofing and snorting was broadcast ed from the direction of the barn yard, which awakened its more or less proud owner and made him aware that there was foul play afoot. Being wrested in this abrupt man- | ner from the arms of Morpheus and! dreams of tyenty-cent cotton he was determined to curb the rebellious spirit of the animal once and for all. Expei icnce had taught him that an ordinary volley of brickbats would be ineffective against the tough hide of his pet. Making his way to the scene where pandemonium reigned he discovered tlvit the bull had foin down the fence and was leading a merry chase across the cotton field, kicking up his heels in fiendish glee, some of the cows following suit. Hans was equal to the occasion. Pro curing a shot gun he seated himself and waited for the incorrigible vo vine to make his round. As soon as he came within range of the gun, Hans fired a load of B. B. shots which took effect in the posterior portions of his anstomy. The animated tar get became more impassioned and tore around in a mad fashion. There followed several repitions of the first fusilade. The full, however, dis played Herculean endurance and so the spectacle continued until night had folded her sable wings and re treated for the onrushing day. The first rays of the sun revealed the fact that defiance had vanished from the i’etaures of Nhe impulsive beast and he followed his master as meekly as Spark Plug. "The survival of the fit test." This method of “shooting the bull” is a decided innovation for which Mr. Manau deserves full cre dit. Since that time we understand the vanquished bull has shown no further signs of insubordination, and if the shower of lead has not impair ed certain natural functions of the affected area he will no doubt be come a credit to the herd. WAYNESBORO ON THE RIGHT LINE Reports to the effect that the of ficers and the courts *at Waynesboro are putting a ban on carrying con cealed weapons ought to have a fine effect. We no longer have savages roaming the milds here and the tig er' does not wait in its lair, seeking whom it may devour. We have no longer room for the man who car ries a gun, for there is no reason for such action. The crime waves that sweep over communities are simply the echoes of lawlessness in minor for’ms and carrying a gun ,a concealed pistol, contrary to law, is but the beginning of the journey that leads to murder, to rapine and other atrocious viola tions of the law. The officers of Waynesboro and Burke—and any other town and county, as for that matter —can do nothing more effec tive than to see that any such vio lators of the law are brought to the bar of justice. Here in this glorious country we have other means and methods of setting difficulties besdies shooting down our' neighbors and our friends -—and ail humanity ought to be cata logued in that category. It will be a splendid reputation for Waynes boro to establish and send out to the world to the effect that no armed marauders walk the streets of that town —for those who carry pistols contrary to. law are potential crim inals of the vilest and rankest char acter. to be rated along with the prowler, the marauder and highway ma n Many officers in other sections who are busy themselves trying to interfere with people who are going about their business in a peaceful, quiet sort of way, might well pattern after Waynesboro officers and direct their efforts and attention to the ruthless characters who insist on car rynig a pistol with them. Half of the murders, or more, the heartches and the sorrows that come with them, are attributable, primarily to the fact that somebody carried a pis tol. Augusta Chronicle. American Red Cross public health nurses have made 3.035 visits to Geor gia homes during the last year to “care for the sick, protect the well, and teach the principles of good health to all,” the annual report of the organization revealed when it was made public today by local Red Ooss officials. This represents the work of four Rod Cross nublic health nursing ser vices supported entirely or in part by Georgia chapters, with headquar ters at the following placees: Gaines ville. Rome, Thomasville and Way nesboro. In addition to the visits to homes, the nurses also have' made 412 visits to schools, where over 2,653 school children were inspected. The perio dic inspection of Georgia school children officials declare, is an im portant step in the prevention of ‘■prions epidemics. Symptoms of con tagious diseases are discovered, and children from the class rooms before the contagion has had a change to spread, thus preventing widespread infection. Another important result of these inspections is the detection of phy sical defects in school children be fore serious harm has resulted. Cases* are common, the nurses state, where children are found to be# suf-l fering from defects of vision and j hearing, diseased tonsils, adenoids,! and even more serious troubles which i hitherto had gone unnoticed, or par ents had not realized the seriousness of the condition. The nurses, after finding symptoms of such defects, visit the parents and explain the importance of them consulting their doctor immediately. Health authorities state that this work is playing an important part in raising both the health and scholas tic standards of American school children, . , 1 The four American Red Cross pub- Vc health nurses working in this { state have also held 12 health con ferences in their- efforts to reach as many peoople as possible with their message of health. Over 124 people have attended these conferences, the report shows. . f Local Red Cross officials state « that the organization now has 657 nublic health nursing services in the United States, with 798 nurses. t These nurses have during the last year made over 1,166,000 visits to homes, 49,098 visits to Schools, and have inspected 1,158,860 school chil dren. Monday evening a party of Way nesboro citizens were guests of the Waynesboro agency office at a bar becue. served at Carmichael’s near Augusta at which Mr . Pelley honor guest. The cue was served by the Efficiency Club of the Augusta territory which includes Waynes boro and Millen with the Augusta of fice. It was a most delightful oc casion and thanks of The Citizen are tendered Mr. Dave Wallace for be ing present. Definitions of Home There clusters around the word home” memories that are near and dear to practically every person. The following are some definitions of home. “A world of strife shut out, a world of love shut in.” “The golden sotting, in which the highest jewel is “mother.” “The father’s kingdom, the chil irmi’s na "adise. the mother’s world” “The only spot on earth where the faults and failing of fallen hu manity are hidden under the mantle of charity.” “The jewel casket, containing the most precious of all jeweh—domes tic happiness. Honte is something belonging to the heart. It means human com panionship, shared love and joy and sorrow. Home is not a house, nor a place, nor furnishings, bur nn at mosphere. To those whose homes have been broken up by death, or family dis sensions, home is usually a cherish ed memory. Every girl has racked away among her ideals an ideal of a home that she some day hopes to possess. Especially do I think this true of a Home Economics girl be cause home-making is one of her 'primary interests. Nancy Byrd Tur ! ner expresses her thought delight ful Ij in a Tittle poem called “Home” I want .to have a little house, With sunlight on the floor. A chimney with a rosy hearth And lilacs by the door. With windows looking east and west,. And a crooked epple trek 1 . And room beside the garden fence, For holly hocks to be. A: i whei 1 i find that little house— A: :.ooi. cr dusk or dawn, . 11 walk rgiht in and light .he fire, And put the kettle on! Homt making and housekeeping rank among the professions as truly as any other occupations 1* is more i 'hati a Hade r.uice one who works at Ai trade perfoims each day the task assigned, the work being planned and . directed bv mother. It is the woik of the housewife to plan and direct i the work of the house. Many a tired mother used to say “Or, any ignorant woman can rear a family, cook meals, scrub and dc such menial work about the house” The time "'has gone when hcmcmaklng is considered 'menial. The fullest. most completely round ed education is none too good for (die who is called upon to use and impart so varied information as is the housewfie. American motherhood is becom ing more efficient through education which prepares them to fulfill more fully their duties as wives and moth eis. For too long so called “broad culture” has taken the place of spe cific training This training is neces sary for all professions and for none more so than the rear'ing of children and the judicious care of a home. Approximately ninety per cent of all girls and women marry and take charge of their own homes. Very few of the twenty-six million home makers of the United are financially able to employ help. It is not al ways possible to employ well train ed help even where there is plenty of money. Do you not think then that special training is necessary? The home is the smallest and most exclusive school in civilization, for in the home as nowhere else is the individual developed. It may give to a child training ten fold more val uable than that which he will re ceive in his later scholastic life. A mother’s responsibility is great, for hers is the greatest task in the worM -that of training future citi zens. American people are waking up to the need of training mothers and home makers as never before. The well-being and health of another generation demand that the study of the child and the care of the home should be taught in the schools all o'*er om* land, no girl should be giv en a diploma until she can pass an examination concerning all the de tails of home life. If she cannot have this as well as allHhe other studies, better far omit some other studies, and law firmly the foundation stones of proper preparation for the life the majority of women live. Tt is with the girls of today that the destiny of the next generation ; s held Let us help them perform their tasks well. RUTH TABOR, .

Pelley of the Central of Geor gia spent some time in Waynesboro Monday on an inspection trip over the Savannah-Augutsa branch of the railroad. While here Mr. Pelley stated that the primary purpose ’of his trip was to meet and get to know personally the men anad wo men worgking for the railroad, but that at the same time he was taking advantage of the opportunity to familiarize himself at first hand with the road’s physical condition. A special train was operated for Mr. Pelley, stopping at each station along the line of the Central of Georgia in order to give the new president an opportunity to meet the agent and other employes. The worker in the ranks can find much inspiration in the career of Mr. Pelley, who climbed from the bot tom of the ladder to his present high position within the comparative ly short space of twenty-six years. He is one of the younger school of railroad executives, being only forty eight years old. Air. Pelley was born at Anna, Illi nois on May 1, 1878, and is a south erner' by descent, his frther having fought in the Confederate Army. Af ter being educated in the public schools of his home city and at the University Illinois. Mr. Pelley started his working career as a school teacher. After three years of this MR. J. J. PELLEY New President of the Central Rail way, Who Visited Waynesboro Monday Afternoon he gave up the idea of being a “white collar man.” Railroad service seem ed to him to offer more opportunity tor promotion, and so, in blue shirt and overalls, he went to work as a track apprentice on the Carbono dale Division of the Illinois Central in 1900. Hard work and application to the job in hand soon brought promotion to young Pelley. He was promoted to assistant foreman, then to fore man, supervisor', assistant roadmsa ter, roadmaster, superintendent, gen eral manager and then*to the office of Vice-President in Charge of Op erations. He resigned this position on September 15, 1926, to become president of the Central of Georgia Railway and of the Ocean Steam ship Company, of Savannah, succeed ing L. A. Downs, who became Presi dent of the Illinois Central System with headquarter's in Chicago. Of Mr. Pelley’s twenty-six years of service with the Illinois Central, nearly half were spent in the South. He is from this actual experience thoroughly familiar with conditions in this section. While in this city he stated that it had given him and his .family a great deal of pleasure to return to the South, and that they were delighted at the thought of making their permanent home in Georgia. He said: “I am sincere in saying that I con template with satisfaction spending the remainder of my years in this territory. I look to the future with confidence and optimism. I believe that our prgoress in this section for the next few years will eclipse the great strides made during the last: decade. I think the Southeast si the coming territory of the whole Unit ed States. I am not dismayed or ev en discouraged by the present de pression the price of cotton which I consider temporary . I be lieve the near future will show a bal anced developonjent between indus try and agriculture. I intend to de vote a great deal of my time and ef icrt to co-operating in bringing about that developoment.” President Pclley stated that he had found everything in good order and said he contemplated no change in the policy or organization of the road. He said that the morale and family spirit among the employes had beeii particularly pleasing to him. In the party accompanying Presi dent Pelley were: 11. D. Pollard, Vice- President and General Manager, J. D. McCartney, Aissistant' to the i President; B. Wrigh’L Assistant Freight Tr'affic Manager; W. MeX. Knapp( General Freight Agent; W. B.

Lawrence, foromer Chief Engineer, but now re tired; W. H. Wright, General Agent and formerly superintendent of the Savannah Division, and J. Reichert, Superintendent of the Savannah Di vision. This was Mr. Pelley’s first visit to this city and he stated that he had been favorably impressed with what | he saw during the short time he was j here. He said he hoped to get back to this city within the near' future for perhpas a stay. GEORGIA VS. TECH FOOTBALL GAME, ATLANTA , GA.

Stanley, Commissioner of Commerce and Labor) A diversification of farming opera tions and sound marketing facilities are essential to success. Except once in a while no farmer could ever make money planting cot-, ton when he had to buy his corn and meat fro mthe West. On the other hand, the farmer who raised all his meat and corn and his other supplies was not hurt as bad as others if there was a pqpr cotton crop or a cheap price. The big drain upon any farm op eration is the {supplies needed to run the farm, and when the corn crib and smokehouse are both in the West, farming is a precarious occu pation at best. Upon every well regulated farm there should be ample meat in the raising, there should be a few beef cattle and of course at least two good milk cows, and a yard full of chick ens, turkery, guineas and other fowls. Go where wou will and where you find a farmer with a good pasture in which can be found sleek cattle and fat hogs, and a colt or two, you will find a farmer who owes nothing at the bank, or so little that the note can be easily met in the fall. On the other hand, view the broad acres of cotton and the small fields or t corn and cattle and no hogs, and you will find a farmer badly in debt and growing worse all of the time. It simply can’t be done. “The cow, the hog and the hen” as a slo gan is of little value unless the sub ject becomes a reality. First of all the farmer must have an attractive home. That does not mean necessarily a very fine house. Even if it is nothing but a cabin it should be neatly painted, the yard should be shaded, and flowers should be growing here and there. There should be a good vegetable garden yi which the house wife can take proper' pride. Proper care should be taken to select a good breed of hogs and a good breed of cattle. A scrub cow costs as much to feed as a Jersey. Likewise, a razorback hog will eat just as much as any standard breed and furnish not one-fourth of the meat. Hog culture was at one time a risky business on account of the cholera. One need fear' little from cholera these days, as cholera serum promptly and efficiently corrects this evil. The destruction of cattle tick has likewise made beef and milk cow’s immune from the serious illness that farmerly befell'them. Georgia has done well and made wonderful progress in the last ten yc-irs. Greater improvement can be made. Vvc. have done well, But we must do better. Every individual farm must be self sustaining. When that goal is reached a much better day will dawn for Georgia. The diversification of crops means that farmer* must raise enough food stuff to supply the farm. Corn, hogs, cats, potatoes, cane, all garden tru :k needed, and various other items which' can be successfully utilized as food, for stock and man. There is no reason why any farmer in Georgia should buy food supplies, and un less he puts himself in a position to feed himself his hands and his stock, he will find at the end of the year that farming has not been a success. Practically everything grown any where can be successfully raised in Georgia, and in Georgia there can he cultivated very many profitable things that the farmers of the other sections are unable to produce. If the farmers of the West can make money growing grain on land which costs from S2OO to SSOO per acre, in all conscience the Georgia farmer', who can grow anything, and whose land is very much less valuable in price, but as productive in soil, ought to be most independent person on the face of the earth. Agriculture is the back bone of the country. It is literally true that “the farmer feeds us all,” but it is not always the Georgia farmer' who is doing this. j Georgia is still not self-sustaining. I We are stilli bringing in all kinds of food products, and farming never will he profitable until the balance of the ledger is in favor of the Georgia farmer. I know that theorizing accomplish es nothing, but if all of us keep | continually at it the time may come ! when Georgia will supply all her ; butter’, her own wheat, her own 1 syrup, her own supply of oats, her own bay, her own beef cattle, her own hogs, chickens, and turkeys, and when that day comes it will be the farmer and not the banker and the i merchant who will be the monied! many any community. Until that day comes the farmer j will not be as prosperous as he • should be. Agriculture is a great pro fession—one of the noblest of them all. It should likewsie be just as; remunerative as any other vocation. Plate Supper at Nunnerlyn Nov. 3 A plate and oyster supper will be served at the home of Mr. J. W. Lewis’ at Munnerlyn on Wednesday night, November 3, to raise funds for the church piano. Everybody is invited.

Father and Son Banquet Held at Girard School Last Saturday night a unique and most pleasant occasion was staged at the Girard High School when Prof. J. B. Pullen, teacher of agriculture in the school arranged a father and son banquet for the in his class. Quite a number of prominent people of that community were present and included in the list of those present were the agricultural teachers in other sections of the county, County School Superintendent E. B. Gres ham. and ye humble scribe of The True Citizen. In addition to the visitors from the county Mr. J. T. Wheeler and Mr. Harvey, of Athens, were also present, as were some of the teach ers from Sardis. The occasion was a delightful one and a most inspiring one. To see the interest taken by the boys, who will be the men of tomorrow, taking an interest in the matter of sensible farming, is a most encouraging sign. It means that there will be better methods of farming in their day than Ave are practicing now in ours. The Citizen wishes to congratu late Mr. Pullen upon his excellent work and trust*that it will prove to be of lasting benefit not only to the boys, but to their fathers who should watch and encourage the boys., in going ahead and taking advantage of this opportunity. A splendid meal was served by the home economics class headed by Miss Hampton and consisted of rolls, butter, potato nest and peas, deviled eggs, stuffed celery, cheese straws, coffee, pickle 4, tea, toma-f to and olive salad, saltines, ice cream, cake, mints, cigars and nuts. It was all th'at one could ask and was thoroughly enjoyed. E. B. Gresham, toastmaster, who was introduced by Mr. Pullen. Prof. J. H. Carswell, made the welcome ad dress.
