Entered at the Danielsville Postoffice as Second Class Mail Matter under the Act of Congress Mch. 8,1 R <:*- Absence of occupation is not rest, A mind quite vacant is a mind dis tressed. —Cov/per. The election is over. The old * xying, “it’s ail ovcr but the shouting'’ is false *ogic. One of our successful candidate says, “I’m just beginning to realise the seriousness of the responsibilitj placed on me.” Cach candidate should realize that it is a position of honor and public trust and be governed accordingly. It is quite an honor to he chosen by a majority of your fellow men to these places of trust. The county is largely judged by these leaders, and it behooves them to make good. As voters, ve should respect the choice o' the majority and uphold them in whatever they undertake fi.r the good of this section. Oip* respect for the office should now make -us feel that they are "cur candidate, regardless of past feelings. Let us all unite foi the good of the majority, regardless of our per sonal gain. AS VVE SEE IT— j.ost. week one oi our county cit izens came in arui requested a paper fur one of Ids neighbors in order to get the election returns. Knowing that neiher of these men has thought enough of their county paper to usb scribe for it in the past several months, we asked if he sent he, the usual price of same. To our sur prise, this man threw down the pa per on the counter, and stalked out, not saying a word. H.s att turte shewed that he had lost the proper regard for the paper, and vve were made to feel that we, as newspaper people, do not demand the respect due us. Often so eager for subserit ers, we often leave the imprvssh'm, by occasional in subscription rate during drives, by offering premiums, by allowing subscriptions to expire and continuing same for some time, then no* 'e nuring payrn*nt,for arm*, and in many other- we.ys the public is ftwO *...w. v.’ *..1 iv. ii very small value on what we have to sell. In another instance in the past few weeks, i eO-’-iv a lady la the coun tv sent in a long obituary with re quest for publication which vve glad ly did at a considerable expense, and accojrapanied the article with a re quest to send copies of this issue o' The News to $ or 10 different per sons, while neither she nor they art' subscribers of the paper. Practically every other paper we knew of chang es for this matter at sc. per line for Cards of Thanks and obituaries, but we fee! that we want to every consideration to those in trou ble and it is not a money considera tion with us, and refuse pay although nearly every one offers to pay for seine. Another man felt it highway rob bery that we mi'.de him h charge **f 2T>c. for a small business ad, showing hi< feeling by being surprised and asking if we didn't have to have something to fill up our columns. Few of our subscribers realize flat the of sending out a year’s sunscripion to a weekly paper is more than dcub'e the price wc are p.sking. Were t i>c for the gike of o; 1\ r’lskiif ,'v- ry aociv. .j ui *uh- seription would be a loss instead of i gain. Yet we appreciate every üb.seriber and would like to have The News and Monitor in every (,me in the county, feeling that it is worth several times the cost to my home. These- are a few things as we see them. LAVONIA CHAMBER COMMERCE URGES TODD AND FEED CROPS Or. account of the shortage of the rriin and hay crons of this section th; Lavonia Chamber of Commerce : s issuing a circular urging the Far wvs of Franklin county to plant •aily and a plenty of these crops to lot tor is still our best money crop, v-ou will also notice that the success ful farmer is the one who raises his upplies and is independent of the urtside supply Th's a:tide is so time !• >,ve ire copying it as follows: “At no time in the history of our •ourty has the condition of the food and feed crops become so alarming as at the ore ent . For eight weeks practically the cnt’re county and sur rounding .section has fcenn in the path of a most severe drouth. Conserva tive estimates place the corn crop as being cut in half and the upland acre age devoted to this crop is almost a complete failure. The harvest of the past years’ oat crop was far below normal, with scarcely enough har vested for the fall seeding to say nothing of feed for the ensuing year. With these condition.; facing us ev ery intelligent farmer should be a roused to the above situation by seed ing a full acreage to -early grain and hay crops.. Every farm, depending upon the and :e, should seed from 1 to 5 acres in rye. during September for early grazing and early hay.

Seed some of the best land on the farm, at t’-.e rate of ■m bushel per acre. Some farmers find it a good practice to cut this hay early and put this land back to corn or cotton with good results. “Oats, wheat and vetch, in combi nation has proved to be an cxcel- I lent spring hay crop for this section Jof Georgia.

TtflE DAfftELfIWLIB MONITOR, OANIW.W9LJ,*, This^Week B, A, A iii Bihba,K> THE REAL NEW YEAR. WHAT iS “WELL BORN?” THE TACTFUL PRINCE. LABOR MUST SAVE ITSELF. Men and women, young or old, with ambition left, sbou.J remem ber that anew year ha3 begun. Tlie lie v year of SUCCESS does not begin on January 1, in the mid dle of Winter. It begins now, with Summer ended, vacations over, schools open, everything under way. He who begins carrying out his good resolutions and working hard now, instead of waiting until next January 1, will have a start of four months on tiie others, and that’s a good start. Flying from Greenland to Lab rador, ths American fliers got back to the American mainland in five months and fourteen days after their start around the world. Children of the future will be amazed at this slow trip around the world. A feature of public school education in future ages will be a flying trip around the world during Summer vacation. The child of twelve will know the principal mountain ranges, rivers and capi tals of the world by having actually seen them. Statistics show that the month of marriage is changing from June to August, and that’s a good thing. June is the month from the roman tic point of view, August from the practical point of view. The first baby of an August wed ding comes along in the Spring with the flowers of May and can be put outdoors at once to get fresh air. In addition, the mother can nurse the baby all through the hot months of the first Summer, when the right artificial food is hardest to find. 1 Scientists, students of Eugenics, welfare workers and others, includ ing th-’ h'vVb."t author * b’v.: ">7.--.v worried about human breeding, and in the future of the race. “The well born refuse to breed, and the ill born insist on breeding too much,’* say these anxious worriers. .. It all depends on what you call well born. The fortunate child is born of a mother that wants chil dren and the ill born comes from a mother that does NOT want chil dren. Time, evolution, gradual lifting up of the frontal angle, and public schools will take care of the human race, if the babies get the right start. The right start begins in a mother’s affection for the father of her child. Without that, pity tho child. With that, everything else can be straightened out. What heat is in the making of steel, affection is in tho creation of children. Farmers will be interested to know that the Argentine Republic spends $5,000,000 for 80,000 tons of galvanized iron sheets to keep back devouring locusts. The sheets will be given to the farmers free and they will be compelled to put them up, digging a ditch where the lo custs will accumulate and be de stroyed. The United States Steel Prcd nets Company supplies the steel. Bare we’d call free steel for farm ers’ socialism. The young Prince of Wales might have made a successful career on his own hook. He has tet, the ki./stone ki the arch of success. Reporters wired from the ship that he had danced Jtwjth a young Bt Louis girl whom he had never met. When the news was sent back to the ship hy wireless, the Prince requested an introduction to tho young woman and danced with her twice.
