THE TRIBUNE-NEWS Published Every Thursday Afternoon, at 14 East Mali; Street, by the Tribune Publishing Company Inc. A ~NEWPAPER DEVOTED TO PUBLIC SERVICE MILTON L. FLEETWOOD --President and Editor ® * ® j EDITORIAL COMMENTS | ON CURRENT EVENTS By DR. G. W. GASQUE, Rector Episcopal Church © * “If you desire peace of soul and happi ness. believe; if you want, to be a disciple of truth, search.” so said Nitetzsche, the German philosopher, psychologist, biologist, musi dan, poet. Some of his admirers think of him sec ond only to Christ. Perhaps fifty .years from now he will be correctly interpreted and val ued. Many a time a man has to die before he is appreciated. But whether you are appre ciated or not, contribute something to human ity. 1 had rather be a Coue than a nonenity. Emile Coue is the French faddist, and when he comes to America with his fad, “ev ery day, in every way,” he straightway mis understands facts, because he says that he understands that prohibition in this country was forced on the majority by a strong-head ed minority. Coue, and others who may have the facts twisted, should know that never in the history of America was there a law passed by such an overwhelming majority as national prohibition. A hundred-gallon still was found on Peachtree street in Atlanta. Immediately the fact was known all over the world. That was big news which seemed to prove to those who want their booze that prohibition is a failure. But what about Christmas day at the West Side Court in New York City, where there was not a single case on the docket? Enemies of prohibition did not say anything about that. / ________ The report of the State Hospital for the Insane in Georgia shows that there were 132 fewer cases of insanity in the state in 1922 than in 1921, and 219 fewer than in 1920. Prohibition decreases insanity. Edwin A. Grozier, the most successful newspaper man living, and editor of the Bos ton Post, says that the two most important factors in his achievements are knowing his clientele and being accurate, flat we must not forget that hack of that were years of training and hard work. Even now he works twenty-four hours a day sometimes. A little natural ability, going to schools, and lots of perspiration are fundamental to success. A young man said the other day, when it seemed that he would lose his business, “If there is no way to save it, let it go; I’ll make some more!” That’s the spirit that wins. There’s no failure for the man who keeps a stiff upper lip and refuses to give up. Hudson Maxim was a child of poverty,born and reared in the country, worked his way through school, and today is one of the world's great men. He says, “Stand on your own legs, be self-reliant, do your own thinking, lick your circumstances.” There are 200.000 children of convict pa rents in the United States. What’s to become ©f these children? Any one of two things: either to make useful citizens, or to follow their parents into the chain gang. Are any of these children in your community? If there v.’hy not look them up, and see if you can do something for them? I heard a lecturer the other day who took xhe joy out of J. V. Stubb’s cotton article in tho" b/ 1 "-ressive Age (January 25), by say ing that tn4're would he no foreign market next fall; th3v Prance and Germany would not be able to buy, find that all this trouble on toe other side of the Atlantic would cause cot ton to reach the bottom when th e farmers are ready to sell. Who knows whether cotton will sell for 10 cents or 30 cents next November? In the hospital today 1 baptized a man 40 years old, black criminal record behind him, who three weeks ago was shot in the left side, and twice through th P head. The X-ray shows one of the bullets lodged in the bra'ti. Likely he will die; he may get well. Should he re cover he may ge a normal man, and he may be hopelessly insane. He wishes to say to all men that though God may forgive his sins and save his soul, that will not feed and clothe his wife and boy. Four hundred undefended divorce cases m one court, which means that that many di vorces will he granted. Did it ever occur to you that the best guarantee against domestic eruptions is the family altar? A husband and wife who will get down on their knees once or twice a day and pray will never have se rious differences. A professor in one of our leading schools told me the other day that he had quit read ing Frank M. Simonds’ articles on the Euro pean situation because they are too “pessi; m’stic.” But all world thinkers and writers are giving us gloomy things to read. The whole picture from every source is very, very dark. There seems to be no light. F. C. Wimberly, member of the Georgia Legislature from Toombs county, is only 22 years old. He is an A. B. from the University of Georgia, paid his own way the last two years and graduated with honors; is now a student at the Atlanta Law School at night, and during the day is coach and professor of history at the Fulton High Schooh You ask how a man can make a record of that kind in so short a time ? You think he is some sort of super-man ? The answer is easy. He worked. If you want to succeed, perspire. And H you are a young fellow and get discouraged now and then, think of Wimberly, age 22. Thirty-three states have abolished the practice of whipping prisoners, on the ground that it is barbarous, disgraceful and without good effect. If whipping prisoners is “barbar ous disgraceful, and without good effect,” what about grown-up folks whipping little children? Is there not some better way to teach them obedience than lashing them? ¥f aLDEN DAYS” - ry YEARS AGO” TTERSVILLE BTANDARD SS, FEBRUARY 6, 1873.

The hogs wil be sold this fall, co-operatively, just like their fath ers, many of thejn at least, are now selling cotton so successfully.

Mrs, C. W. Turk county home demonstration agent, has assured the girls, she will co-operate with them to the fullest extent, and their organization is expected to be just as actlveas is the boys at this time. Naturally, keen rivalry is anti cipated, and in the end, the entire community will reap the benefits that are certain to accru e from such organ- ■ '" M' M' M ■• U mu __ p jpr p Hrogersl INCOME TAX FACTS. In making out his lncomf tax return for the year 1922, the t\x payer is re quired to tiClude all items of gross in come. In the case of a stor-j keeper the groes income consists usually of gross profits on sales, together with in come from other sources. The returns must show the gross sales, purchases, and cost of goods sold To reflect net income correctly and ascertain gross income Inventories are ordinarily re quired as of the beginning and end of each taxable year. The professional man, doctor, lawyer, dentist, must in clude all fees and other compensation for professional services. In order that they may obtain full advantage of the deductions from gross Income to which they are entitled, tax payers are advised by collectors of in ternal revenue to study carefully the instructions on the forms for making return? under the head "Income frjm Business or Profession."
