Patriotism
Holidays like Memorial day are commonly
used as times for teaching patriotism. We are
shown the superb example of the soldier’s sac
rifice, and told to display a like spirit.
But there is no special reason to think that
in the near future we shall be called on for
patriotic service of that kind. We are asked
for patriotic service constantly and the way to
give it is to try our best to make a better coun
try.
There are many ways to do that. Voting at
all primaries and elections is one. Reading
and studying the newspapers, to find out what
parties and candidates will give the best ser- !
vice, is a good way. Sending children to school
just as long as we possibly can, so they will
make good citizens, is an excellent way. Obey
ing the laws of the land is a good method of |
patriotism. We do not have to go to France
or the Philippines to show patriotism, it can be
manifested just as well right her in Fitzgerald.
Thanks to The Teachers
A debt of gratitude is due the public school
teachers who through an arduous schol year
have given the best energy of their nature to
the problem of instructing the youth of Fitz
gerald. Itis a job that calls for much self sac
rifice, for increasing diligence, and it involves
nervous strain.

Captain Charles Lindbergh
A tall, lose-jointed, raw-boned youngster,
his sheer daring and stark nonchlance made
him the “choice” over the older and probably
better aviators from fiw very first. They had
elaborate equipment, a flock of mechanicians,
complicated plans and elaborate organizations.
Lindbergh had no plans, equipment or organi
zation than a chicken hawk. Not Captain
Lindbergh. He ran his own show. A man and
a compass and a bottle of water, a sandwich
or two and his own confidence, and he was
on his way to win. And he won.
His face on the front page of a thousand
newspapers has been the magnet for genuine
and devoted interest. His smile, his figure, his
youth, his record, his confidence, his very air
plane has won their way into everybody’s
heart. He was, all of a moment, the country’s
kid. God bless him, he might be a fool, but he
was a gorgeous fool, and everybody loved him.
It is more than Captain Lindbergh’s adven
ture and triumph: it is the spirit of man un
covered to reveal a hidden beauty and strength
which for all the futilities remains a perpetual
hope. .
Hook-Up
Farm Relief Legislation
Agriculture’s friends in Federal affairs have
evidently adopted the time honored policy that
“there is more than one way to skin a cat”.
News from Washington tells us quite positively ‘
that thoughts for farm relief is by no means
a dead issue. In fact it is as much alive as ati
the moment it seemed about to become an ac
tuality this spring.
Agricultural leaders in Washington are now
busy searching about for “hook-up” ]egisla-j
tion upon which to tack another McNary-
Haugen bill, with the idea of forcing the next
congress and the administration to accept it or
see perhaps their pet bill, what-ever-it-may-be,
¢o down to defeat.
Already leaders of the American Farm Bu
reau, Federation, The National Grange and the
Farmers’ National Union have arranged an Oc
tober meeting in Washington to prepare a pro
gram for a farm relief campaign, and have it
ready and waiting for Congress when it con
venes in December.
The “hook-up” may be made with the Missis
sippi flood legislation which will then come
up and, which at this time, seemingly is assur
ed of action. With flood relief and farm re
lief a joint issue, backed by the agricultural
bloe in Congress, there is hope of pushing a
McNary-Haugen measure through.
Chester H. Grey of the American Farm Bu
reau; L. J. Taber, president and Frederick
Brenckman of the National Grange have al
ready informed the President that sentiment
amongst the farmers is still strong for the equ
alization fee feature of the McNary-Haugen
bill, and that any bill to find favor much pro
vide funds to help them market crops. :
It is generally known that farm-relief advo
cales are going to point long and earnestly at
“pig iron” and its increased tariff, in making
demand for federal aid in agriculture. It will
be brought to mind that nearly everything said
which “could not be done for agriculture” was
done almost immediately for pig iron through
increased tariff. In other words, “Govern

ment price fixing” seems okeh for industry—
but not to be thought of for more than 4,000,-
000 farmers.
e———r e e ——
Comnig Out of the Mud
One o fthe chief benefits the farmer derives
from really good roads is that of being able to
move his farm products to market over them,
quickly, cheaply and without inconvenience.
The farmer's crops are his stocks in trade . If
he can market them without delay when the
price is up, he is the gainer; if, because of bad |
roads. he is unable to get his products to mark- |
et until after the price has declined, he loses.
In the old days when-the roads were good
only in good weather, the farmer could do lit-]
tle satisfactory maketing. He was forced to!
take a chance on getting his products to the‘
buyer on a rising market.
One decided advantage in good roads is
that they encourage the use of motor vehicles
by the farmer, effecting a saving in time and
worry in moving his crops, and in getting his
family to church and children to school.
Thousands of miles of poor roads which act
as feeders for main highways are being made
practical for modern traffic at a minimum of
expense, by protecting the old base with a
water proof wearing surface. Thus farm land
is made available for use, which would other
wise be isolated due to distance from schools
and markets and prohibitive cost of building
standard types of state highway pavements.
The modern tractor and road machinery plus
the waterproofing qualities of asphalt are en
abling hundreds of communities to come out
of the mud.
Good roads are probably next in importance
to newspapers in unifying our people.
Killing ?
Private Public
In the Snyder murder case there is some
thing more important than a horrible story,
with its sashweight, picture wire, chloroform
and unlimited bootleg whiskey. The strange
thing is the eagerness expressed by many,
women and men, that the convictea woman
and man should, without fail, die in the elec
trict chair. Some apparently consider the ap
proaching executions as a sort of victory for
themselves.
What good will those executions do? They
will add one more horror to a horrible crime.
Is it desirable, in the name of Justice that a
woman, screaming and struggling, be strapped
in the electric chair, put to death by a combi
nation of law and science? How much better
is a legal killing in cold blood than a private
killing done in the heat of alcohol and bestiali
tv? Justice must forego killing in the name of
civilization before it can expect criminals to
give up killing in the name of hatred, cupidity
and vice.
The Great Thrill
Two weeks ago, Charles Lindbergh was a
mere youth known only to that narrow circle
of acquaintances out of which the average
man never breaks. Today, he is a symbol of
which the American nation is inordinately
proud—a symbol of that reckless gallantry,
that high-hearted spirit that is often foolhardy
but frequently, as with him, translates itself
into a glorious achievement. This fresh young
nation has achieved much of its vitality and
much of its glory from such adventures as he.
Where older men took precautions according
to the traditions of aerial navigation, Lind
bergh defied them all. Rain off Long Island,
fog off Newfoundland, a stiff breeze in mid
ocean and lowering weather over England and
France only spurred him on. Defying sleep
and physical comfort of all sorts, and trusting
himself to the mercies of an airplane engine
and a tank of gasoline, he has won by that
defiance a place in flying’s hall of fame. His
achievement deserves to be ranked with Byrd’s
airplane flight across the North Pole as the
two most daring exploits of the air.
Lindbergh has all the elements of a popular
hero. He will not talk his fame away, because
he is of that reserved North Country stock
that draws its silence from the Northern fast
ness. He is an uncommunicative, monosylla
bic man. How much we esteem that type, or
how much it appeals to the American imagina
tion—because, perhaps the average American
is garrulous—was indicated in the myth that
grew up about a man so ordinary as Mr. Cool
idge. Lindbergh’s single-handed flight only
emphasizes the achievement. If America es
timates reserve highly, it also reserves the fic
tional “lone wolf”. Lindbergh’s flight would
have been all the safer if there had been a sec
ond man in his plane. Because there was not,
his fame is all the greater. He shares it with
nobody.
When one writes of him and the flight, the
mind refuses to work in its ordinary processes.
The reaction becomes emotional jumble. It is
best defined in that spine-chilling thrill that
passed down the American backbone yesterday
evening. —Macon Telegraph. . ____ __ ___ .

Too Yellow
A method %o take out the natural
vellow of Guernsey butter is being
sought. The famous butter has be
come so yellow that consumers are
turning away from it, suspecting ar
tifical coloring. The reason is ex
plained for its deep hue as being caus
ed by the yellow fat that lines the
Guernsey cow which is vellow out

True this butter has alway com
manded a price almost double that

School Histories Are Bad
In all educational coenventions of
the past few years the sDiect of
school histories comes up for discuss
ion. Most educators helieve that the
school textbooks are playing up to the
record of armies and wars to the ex
clusion of the accomplishments of na
tions and the emphasis of the good
qualities of the great men whoh ave
influenced progress in all lines. In
our own U. S. Histery textbooks we
see the totally different pictures of
the Civil War period as p ‘esented by
the northern and scuthern writers.
This variance tends to keep hard
feelings and the early animosities a
live. Which one c¢ould the whole
country agree upon as official his
tory to be studied in other countries?
The good and fair hi tory of the Uni
ted States with proper emphasis up
on its constructive featurzs is yet to
be written. A world federation of
educational associations wil meet in
Canada in August and the subject
of history text books will be one item
for thorough consideration, with the
idea of a trend toward peace being
paramount to records of war.

of radium, the one effectiv: remedy

but the percentage of radium '.: great

The increased sunply that is assured
will be of particular benefit to scien

applications on certain diseases. The

Near East Relief Orphans Repairing Damaged Streets—American Ambulance
Bringing in Casualties. e
HE Armenian earthquake has
I laid waste the most novel city
in the world. Cable dispatches
to the Near Bast Relief indicate that
its orpnanage centers of the organiza
tion in Leninakan, formerly Alexan
dropol, have been seriously damaged
by the disastrous earthquake that
cost 500 lives and made 80,000 home
less in the mountain country.
The orphan city was established by
the Near East Relief shortly after
the armistice, being housed in bar
racks that once belonged to the Im
perial Army of the Russian Czars. At
one time 35.000 children were cared
for here, though rehabilitation efforts
had been so successful up to the time
of the earthquake that the number
In France there is a custom that
eoes back to the year 525, that has
the nature of a contest and is still an
nually observed in the northern part
of the country. It is the most remote
thing possible from a modern beauty
contest though it is to the young girls
that the honors go. The best girls,
the most virtuous in a broad interpre
tion of the word are the ones whol;
receive a crown of rosebuds and a
money prize for their high repute.
Tradition has it that a bishop in
the year 525 created a public fund
out of his own property to supply the
prize money.
The sacredness of the honor is in
dicated by the fact that the formal
presentation is always a Sunday
ceremony,
Some long or faithful service in the
family is often recognized by the com
munity in this award as well as some
special achievement or perhaps the
brave struggle with poverty. Perso
nal appearance is the least of the‘
graces to win this prize of virtue. ;

Pro and Anti German
War prejudice still lingers with re
gard to prima donnas.
A few weeks ago we learned that
Frieda Hempel because of her pro
- German attitude during the war had
fallen into such disfavor with Ameri
can audiences that a countryman a
'noted millionaire of New York had
[ made a contract to furnish her an al
lowence that was common with her
’ losses, and continuous for life. Some
litigation brought this arrangement
into public knowledge. Today we
read of the predicament of Emmy
Destinn once a notable favorite of
Berlin audiences who because of anti-
German utterances during the war
found her recent appearances there to
be so unpleasing to a certain element
ithat a guard of 100 police were de
tailed to prevent disorder. There
were a few hisses buf these were
Idrowned in applause. !

The disaster, however, now threatens
to throw a large mumber more on the

Relief officials on the field have es
