For it half-dozen months his cruft plowed the wild waves of the Caribbean sea. It is not meant to convey the idea that he was with the sea rovers all this time. During the winter months he was chasing the gold- maneuver by way of sparring for posi tion is to knock the awning-posts down and shatter a plate-glass window or two. As usual, the set-to was about the "root of all evil." - Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Wilson had as their Sunday guests Mr. and Mrs. A I>. Mcl’herson, of Rremen. -The spelling "bee’’ is getting in his spring work, after the approved and energetic manner of his namesake, the "little busy.” Yes. he has inspired the youngsters who are chasing knowl edge around the house at the A. & M. to chortle and warble this dulcet lay— “Tra-Ia-la, tra-la-la-la. How doth the ambitious been Crawl up in into our nollara And make ua do our level best To win the Mandevllle dollars!” These noble lines may to some appear enigmatical—especially as to winning the Mandeville dollars. Here’s where the water hits the wheel: Some days ago Hon. L C. Mandeville offered a cash prize to the best speller in the A. & M. School. Taking his cue from this suggestion, I’rof. Melson pulled off a spelling "bee" at the school Thursday evening. As yet we've not learned the particulars, hut you shall have them later. j —Education is a good thing. It comes j pretty high ; still it’s a good thing. We do not like to see it circumscribed in its limits. Universal lumination of all created brains, however, is not what we want. It was once thought that the 1 Caucassian, Mongolian and kindred J races were the only "it.” Some al- I truistic people down East conceived en fruit of the orange groves of Florida I erroneous idea that a nigger had many thousands of which he packed S brains enough to cultivate.

He formed an alliance, offensive and de fensive, with Hillio Howlegs, jr., the Seminole chief of the Everglades.. As a pledge of good faith that he would return to his dusky ally he left his gun and camp equipage. He is accompa nied by Chief Bowlegs’ son, the re doubtable Hole-in-the-Day. The fore going will introduce you to Emanuel Martin. - Hon. 1’. P. Kingsbcrry has just re turned from Bluff ton, Ala., where he has been for a week or ten days for the benefit of His health. Mr. M. M. Bradley has from Niw York, where weeks purchasing new house. •Mrs. F. M. Camp has returned from a visit to her mother at Hogans- ville. Mrs. A. W. Quillian, called some days since to attend her daughter, who lias been desperately ill at Winder, re turned Monday, leaving the latter somewhat improved. It's a pity our farmers haven’t the opportunity to see the thorough prepa ration given an acre intended for a truck garden. The amount of money expended would make them open their eyes. A truck gardener rented a couple of acres near a large city at $600 a j year. On this was expended $700 for manure. In water-pipes, hot - bed frames and glass hells for covering plants, he invested $(),000 more. This equipment enabled him to keep the ground warm in winter and well watered in spring and summer. This represented a snug little country for tune; hut the man made seven or eight crops a year on the ground, from which he sold a half-million pounds of vege tables, which, in turn, netted him up wards of $5,000 annually. Don’t stand on the cost of preparation, so long as I the expenditure is made with judg- j niont. Small farms well tilled are the ones on which most money is made. 1 Mr. and Mrs. II. O. Uovvorn have returned from the Taft coronation cer emonies and visits to the larger cities North among them New York, Phila delphia and Boston. Mr. Fred Wilson, the mine-owner and expert in auriferous and argentif erous geological specimens, has been spending some of his time and wealth about town the past, few days. The muchness of the rainfall has driven the miners in his camp to the surface, where they will remain until he can re move some millions of gallons of water that is soaking his shafts. —Tho spring lights have opened. There is nothing new in the way of swatting the opposing party. The latest 'till IH prince’s ransom a thousand times over to educate the "black man and broth er.’’ And our Southern lawmakers took up the slogan • "Let us educate the black man and brother,” until to-day he naturally takes his books and buck et to school just the same as people. Does he learn? Yes; like the parrot. Can lie reason? Yes; like a quadruped a fox. He passes your house and lo cates the chicken's boudoir. Next morning like Mrs. Chicky-my-craney- crow -when you wake up your chickens are gone. Education does not elevate him in the scale of morals. Whether able to read or not, his superstitious in stincts lead him to he devout—not in a reverential sense, hut because he fears the divine wrath. It is not the love of lie spent two j God i ul f the f R(ir 0 f the Devil that goods for his him a consistent hypocrite. His metaphysical attributes, if he has any, are of little consequence in this brief effort to explain why education should he diversified. There is the poor, un tutored and much-neglected mule that is sadly in need of education. So far as the record shows, not one dollar has ever been expended upon his education. He is kept at home on the farm, and plowed day in and day out, without ever having a chance to make the ac quaintance of a traction engine, a loco motive or an automobile—except, now and then, he is driven to town and has i a hasty introduction to these ill-mnn- 1 ncred things that rush upon him. Na- | live modesty, disgust or fear causes him to frequently turn and llee. Un- ] der these circusmtances what does the driver do? Does he light out and strike “Maud” between the eyes with the palm of his hand and tell hei, ns he pats her jowls; "Don’t be afraid, girly; it’s just one of them dinged automobiles, that scares coun try people and mules into spasms. There now. baby, the son-of-a-gun is ' gone, and nobody hurt!” No; he does ! nothing of the kind. He forgets that i “Maud” is just a poor untutored coun j try mule, who looks upon an automo- | bile, a traction engine, a wheelbarrow 1 and a locomotive as the only live and moving devils in her known world—the only agencies of evil made for her de struction. In a towering passion the driver begins to argue with Maudy by running around to her head with his reason-uwnkener in his hand, (a wagon- standard,) and furiously tries to pestle knowledge into her head by knocking her long and symmetrical ears otf. She’s a good dodger, and the irate teamster busts his knuckles trying, to enforce compulsory education. In this case, which is the line of procedure pursued by most teamsters whose teams will not receive an introduction from those rude vehicles instanter, we see that such a teamster is not the proper person to have a coy. shy coun try mule in charge. One of two things Baking Powpeh Ibsoltiicly Pure The Only Baking Powder made from Royal Grape Cream of Tartar —Made from Grapes— A Guarantee of Pure, Healthful, Delicious Food should be done, that the ends of justice may be met -either the driver or the mule should be tutored in the ethics of the highway; or. to make such an oc currence impossible for the future, both should be brought to town and given a month’s training out of the public school fund. We understand that Hon. Murphy Candler, of. DeKalb, has such a bill for introduction at the next session of the Legislature. Should the bill pass it will meet with general commendation. —Mr. A. O. Williams returned from Miltedgeville Tuesday. —Mr. R. J. Galbreath was in Rock- mart Monday, looking after business pertaining to the Gainsboro Telephone Co. —Mrs. H. R. Robinson is spending a couple of weeks in Atlanta with her daughter, Mrs. J. R. Sewell. —After spending a couple of weeks in Atlnata, Miss Italy Simonton re turned home Saturday. — Miss Daisy Harris returned Thurs day from Piedmont, Ala. —After a week’s visit to Newnan friends Miss Kate Thornton returned home Saturday. —Mr. and Mrs. G. F. Mathews had their daughter, Mrs. R. P. Thompson, of Manchester, as their guest during the past week. -Rev. Robt. F. DeBelle, our visiting Episcopal minister, preached Sunday to a select few of the Lord’s anointed ones. —Miss Sallie Archer is spending a week with homefolks at Franklin. —Mrs. S. L. Clay, of Cedartown, ac companied by her children, were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Evan Thomas- son last week. It’s the vogue nowadays to offer premiums to induce trade. "Them as knows how” make it a fetching scheme. Bass-Coalson Co. are the last commercial artists to appeal thus to public cupidity. Last September they offered five premiums. Customers were given a ticket for each dollar’s worth purchased. The proposition took like wildfire. From that time until the drawing of prizes on the 20th inst. they had sold $35,000 of goods for cash. The drawing, and the crowd in attend ance, was the biggest commercial dem onstration ever witnessed in Carrollton. It was estimated that the throng num bered 5,000. Every ticket drawing a prize was represented by its owner on the spot. This demonstrates that all the successful merchants are not yet out of business. —The Tower of Babel was a big thing in early post-deluvian days, hut those fellows should have come to Car rollton before undertaking to build a ladder to the "pearly gates.” We’ve got the builders and the plans. Tho Legislature has undertaken to throw certain safeguards around the possum. Under the law he has the right-of-way in the woods from the 1st of March until the 1st of October. It is the duty of gamekeepers to run a hunter into the county jail who violates the ’possum’s rights or person. What the ’possum needs more than legisla tion, for his preservation, is a broader range. Congress should have a national ’possum park in each county where the ’possum finds the ’3immons and cli mate agreeable. If the rascal was a little broader between the eyes, and would abandon some of his sneaking ways, he might become domesticated like the cat. Under the incubator sys tem every poor famly could have " ’possum and ’taters.” Anything, though, for the augmentation of the harvest. —Mr. L. K. Smith, one of the Gains boro Telephone Co. officials, spent Sat urday in Cedartown. —Mr. Hayne Sharpe, of Birmingham, is visiting Carrollton friends. —Mrs. W. L. Hitchcock and daugh ter, Miss Belle, have gone to Atlanta, where they will make their home. Miss Buford, the charming young Piedmontese, who had many friends and admirers here, was married at | Piedmont, Ala., Sunday. Misses Flor- i ence and Daisy Harris were in attend- I ance at the nuptials. -Col. Sidney Holderness attended Heard Superior Court last sveek. There i is not a lawyer in the circuit who en joys a more extensive practice than does Col. Holderness. —Col. Ueon Hood was in attendance on Heard Superior Court the past week. A Harvard man tells the following story ; Walking one afternoon down a certain avenue he saw great volumes of smoke and flames coming from the second story of an attractive-looking residence. Rushing madly up the steps he rang the bell, which was answered by a deaf woman. "Good heavens! Your house is burn ing up.” "What?” "I say the entire house is a mass of flames.” “Is that all?” she squeaked. “I’m sorry, madam, but that’s about all I can think of just this minute.” If You Are a Trifle Sensitive About the size of your shoes, it’s some satisfaction to know that many people can wear shoes a size smaller by sprinkling Allen’s Foot-Ease into them. Just the thing for patent leather shoes, and for breaking in new shoes. Sold everyhere, 25c. JACK POWELL Who is always at home, 32 Spring Street, Has This to Say: Before you buy a Wagon, Buggy, Carriage, Surrey, or anything in the vehicle or harness line, give me chance at you. You will not be asked to buy on reputation alone. Point by point, I will show you wherein my well established lines excel. You do not want to buy a ve hicle every season. You want to be sure of your investment. Then come w’here "all coons don’t look alike.” Each vehicle here has a dis tinctiveness and an individuality of its own, and is sold upon its own merits. The "cheap Western johns” are sold as "cheap johns.” The old, well-established and reliable Southern makes are sold on their real worth, and they compel admiration—first, because they look so good; and, second, because they wear so well and, last so long. That’s the kind Jack Powell sells. He guarantees that there are no better Buggies or Wagons in the whole world. They are RIGHT in every detail. All lumber used in their manufacture is air se isoned, and all iron and steel carefully Inspected and tested. I have a rubber tiring machine, and rubber-tire my own buggies. I use the Kelly Springfield tire—a tire that has no "past” to live down. It is the most numerously demanded rubber tire because people re member—not because they forget. Come in and let me show you what a really good Buggy and Wag on is. Each and every vehicle sold MUST BE AS REPRESENTED, or your money will be refunded. ONLY EXCLUSIVE BUGGY AND WAGON REPOSITORY IN NEWNAN. Down in Georgia the citizens of a thriving town of about six thousand people arranged for a chautauqua as sembly last summer. They held the meetings in a big tent about a mile from the town, and the attendance was large from the first dav. An enter prising circus man heard of the large crowds, and landed in the town on the second day of the chautauqua with a steam merry-go-round which he loca ted about half-way between the town and the chautauqua grounds. Along in the afternoon a young man from the country districts was accosted by a citizen of the town. “Well, Ezry, I suppose you are in to the chautauqua.” "I shore am. Jist come from thar now.” "How’d you like it?” asked townsman. "Fine ez a fiddle! I rode on the durn thing nine ti mes !” Woman’s Beauty Some women retain their beauty to an advanced j age.
