Thin in tin 1 age of Imsinoss ami there is danger that the higher in leroHtH of men will he submerged and cheeked out by the crowding concerns of our money seeking ei\ ili/.ution. The refinements of art, tilt 1 beauty and glory of nature,the power of repose, the adventure of the ideal—all these things should have a place in a career that is worth while, thus enlarging life’s scope. Mere material success usually is lopsided. It is not long ago that Andrew Carnegie, our Hismurk of business, delivered a weighty ut terance upon the insufficiency of wealth as an ideal aim in life. “Money,’’said Mr. Carnegie,“does not make a man happy . I would give up all the wealth I have rath er than be denied the pleasure that comes from the study of literature and art. If Mhakcspcarc and W ag ner, the mountain peaks of liter ature and music, were taken out of my life, lift 1 would he poor in deed.” Here is testimony, competent, relevant and pertinent—-the testi mony of a disinterested witness, writes Kdwin Markham. Here are texts for many serious meditations. These doctrines cry out against a soul su(locating absorption in bus iness, but do they set the word of approval on an ideal life; Ho they mean that work is a misfortune to bemoan, an incubus to bo shaken oil'.' Is labor the Old Man of the Sea astride the bended back of Life! Nay, verily. We are outgrowing the crude tradition that work is a curse, a hindrance to a complete life. It is the mark of a shallow thinker to fancy that, if it were not for work, life would break open around him into lieautiful satisfactions. There is no curse of work work that is not sla\ isli drudgery; for work is as normal to man as play is to a tiger’s cub. Hut in the ashes of hope there is a curse upon the paradise of the idle, deep as the dust of graves. So the chief concern of every man should be to become oriented —to find out his errand to the earth. This is a part of the obli gation laid upon every soul. The animal does not have to seek for its mission, does not have to find its way . In normal conditions the animal is pushed on in the path of its foreordained career, but man must co-operate consciously with the powers that make for his prog ress and his peace. One look in life makes clear the fact that man is not here to roll as an aimless stone down a swift river.

To Build Telephone Line. T h e much-talkcd-of Franklin and Newnan telephone line will now be a reality. It will be built by the Southern Hell people from Newn.m, via Handy, to within five miles of Franklin and the Gaines- boro people will build out to meet them. The line will be construct ed at once and it is expected that it will be in operation by Nov. 1st or very soon thereafter. It will be a first-class line and will have some fifty subscribers on it. It is understood that all sub scribers on the line will have free connection with the exchange at both Franklin and Newnan, no charge on the long-distance route between the two points.

She speaks her in dexible judgment: “Let the un used organs perish.” Forthwith that pauper plant begins to la* ephone companies and the sub scribers can conter together and decide upon what is best and most satisfactory to all concerned.. It is the desire of both the Gainsboro and the Southern Bell to give the public the very best service possi- b e at all times and the greatest rifices upon the growers of the staple. Warehouses may be con structed and should be,in sufficient quantities to store the entire croD, yet millions of bales each fall must continue to be rushed upon the market to pay for supplies furnish ed so long as such a vast army of the growers insist upon producing all cotton at the expense of food supply crops. When every cotton grower in the South, be he tenant, cropper or landlord, has establish ed his own financial institution, in the form of a well filled corn crib and smokehouse upon his own premises, the great reform in the future handling of the cotton crop and demanding fair and profitable prices for its sale, will have been placed upon a substantial and per manent footing. These are facts which are known to every grower and must be admitted by every person at all familiar with the cot- ion industry of this country. No grower need say that he cannot produce his food supplies at home, if he tries. We have the soil, cli mate and intelligence in abundant quantities. All that is needed for success is for each mm to make up his mind to become an impor tant factor in the speedy over throw of old, primitive methods which for half a century have kept the rank ; nd fi e of the growers in a system of bondage well nigh bor dering upon the horrors of slav ery.

It is the friendly Thousands of Georgia corpora tions, located in every county in the State, are braving the penalty of 850 fine which may be put upon 1 them on and after November 1st, next, for failure to comply with the act of the last general assembly re quiring them to register with the secretary of state for which the law charges a fee of only 81. There appears to he a disposition on the part of some corporations to ignore the law, not a few think ing, doubtless, that they will pass unnoticed. Attention was then called to the fact, however, that there is a legal record of every Georgia corporation in the office of the clerk of the court and it may be put down that none of them will !escape. Although the law has been of force for two months, and only three weeks remain in which to comply witl\ its terms, iess than 1,000 out of some 15,000 to 20,000 corporations doing business in Georgia have registered. The small corporations are responding more freely than those of larger proportions, but none of them are giving heed to the law with that ptompfness which will be neces sary jt they are generally to com ply with it by the required time, November 1st. Under this law every corpora tion doing business within the ! State, whether a foreign corpora tion or working under a Georgia charter, is required to comply with the terms of this registration act by November 1st. Secretary of State Pnilip Cqok has already sent out thousands of copies of the law and registration blanks showing just what must be done and these ! will be sent promptly upon appli cation to any who may desne them.
