NO CAUSE FOR ALARM.
Sylacauga (Ain.) Novrs.
When n certain bntnllion of drafted
nion first fountl themselves ill the. front
lines in Europe thoro was some confu
sion in the ranks. The first blush of
real warfare wns accompanied by undue
excitement, disorganization and com
plaint. Quick to seo that nil was not
well with hii command, tho major, who
nftprwnnla was awardcil a Distinguished
Servlco CroBs for gallantry in notion,
gathered his junior officers nbout him
to talk tho mnttor over.
“Now, boys,” ho told thorn, “wo’re
in tho lines and linvo a job boforo us.
There is nothing extraordinary nbout our
situation, Thoro is nothing unoxpoctod
nbout it, and nothing to got excited
about. This is what wo’vo been train
ing for. It’s merely whnt wo know wns
coming. It wns inevitable. Wo planned
for it, trained for it, and prepared to
moot it. Now let’s roll up our sleovos
and go to it.”
And tiiey did.
That mnjor’s remarks might well ap
ply to those who are prone to got ox-
cited and panic-stricken over tho coun
try’s presont economic situation. Truo,
prices are continuing thoir gradual pro
coss of doilntion, and lioro and there
cuts are bring ; announced in salaries.
True, also, tho price of cotton la too
low, and there is more or loss stringency
in the money market. But there’s noth
ing to got excited about. Economic re
adjustment following tile world war was
as inevitable as it was necessary. Far
sighted business men have foreseen it
for two years, nnd foresighted citizens
havo prepared for it. It was heralded
to tho four winds after tho armistico,
and it wub officially inaugurated last
spring whsta the Federal Resorvo banks
began to curtail spoculativo loans nnd
aid in deflating tho national currency.
•Wo know it Wfts coming. Wo expected
fiotliing else. And now that wo’ro bo-
ginning to feel the effects of it is no
reason to biceme panic-stricken ami con
sign tho country to the demnition bow
wows.
After all, what’s tho matter ttitii (fid
situation t No ono is starving. People
are Btill dressed well nnd housed comfort
ably. Tho farmer still rldos to town
in his car, and 1ms ids barn nnd smoko-
houso filled to overflowing. War thrift
has taught him to make his own food
stuff. And just because tlm dollar'has
rogainod somo of its just value, or bo-
cause some reckless citizens havo thrown
to-the winds their recent profits in tho
vain expectation that a fictitious pros
perity would last forever, thoro is no
reason why intelligent, mon Bhonld talk
of panics nnd begin to hourd their sav
ings in tho family sock,
Tho prieo of cotton is too low. To
Roll it at existing prices means a heavy-
loss to tho farmer. But its presont price
is practlenlly duo to Bouthorn liquida
tion. Lot tho fnrmor hold on to ids
cotton. Most of thorn are not forcod to
soli. No ono is breaking his nock to get
rid of ids livestock anil grain, nnd yet
tho price of botli Jinn taken p tumble,
Efforts to soil cotton boforo it goos to
a lower lovol' results lit forcing it to
a lower lovol boforo you enn soil. Oo-
opornUon botwoon tho fnrmor and tho
merchant nnd banker is what’s needed,
nnd it is to tho intorost of oach to co
operate.
Economic readjustment naturally is
accompanied by more or Iobb inconven
ience nnd financial loss. Lot’s overlook
tho inconvonionco ami take what losses
are nocossary. It’s bettor in tho long
run to onjoy a limited prosperity bnsod
upon tho sound law of supply nnd do-
rannd than to revel in a false prosperity
that in tho ond could load to nothing but
nntlonnl bankruptcy.
Lot’s adjust oursolvos to tho read
justment. Lot’s adapt our ways of liv
ing to those nocossary changes. Thoro’s
a job to do. Lot’s roll up our sloovos
nnd go to it.
KING SNAKE SLEEPS WITH BULL
DOGS.
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 27.—Tho famous
motion picture of a snako crawling
around a bird’s neat without bothoring
tho tiny baby birds, which are commonly
supposed to bo tho clioicost of all fooda
for SnakoB, is equallod by nn Atlanta
butcher who raiBOB white pit bull dogs.
His registered thoroughbred fornalo hns
a litter of puppieB two wooks old that
sloop with a largo king snako overy
night,, and tho mother dog cuddlos up
the king snako with apparently Ah much
affection as siio bcBtows on her offspring.
Tho butcher keeps tho king snako in
the market to catch tho rate, finding it
far hotter than cats or rat torriore or
rat traps, and tho snako nnd tho bull dog
are tho host of friends. When the pup
pies arrived and tho mother dog made a
bod for them in tho bnsomont of tho
markot, tile king snako found it n most
onjoyablo placo to sloop. Tho dogs do
not object to tho snako,
TWO INCIDENTS.
Morlwothor Vindicator.
Two observant Groonylllo citizens
made trips recently, oncli going to a
different section of Ooorgin.
Ono wont to nn adjoining county where
tho farmers wore lilt harder by boll
woovils that wo are nt homo.
Tho people thoro wore clfOorful nnd
thankful. They had no money, but
onough hog nnd hominy to tldo them
ovor to tho noxt crop. Tlio gontlomnn
in question spout tho night nt a 'hum
ble homo. Tho lionet of tho family soldi
I hnvo no money, but enough to ent.
My wife put lip enough cnmiod fruit
to Inst tho family ilvo years. I havo
mi orchard already bearing and young
fruit trooB sot out. I havo milk, butter,
syrup, potatoes, corn ami plenty to sus
tain limn and boast. I am so thankful
that I havo enough to oat. God la goqd
to mo and I bollovo Ho will provide a
way for mo to stand tho times. ’ ’
Tho othor gontlomnn wont to a town
of S,000 people ,-in tho northern part of
tho State. After supper ho cnllod up a
drug store nnd asked for tho proprietor.
Tho ntiBWor ovor tho ’phono wnB, “Wo
nro just closing up to go to prayor-
mooting. Mr. Jonos wont to tho bnrbor
shop) perhaps yon may catch him thoro.”
A ’phono mossngo to tho harbor Bhop
brought tho samo mossngo, “Wo nro
closing up to go to prayor-mcctlng. Mr.
Jonos 1ms just loft for tho Iioubo of
prnyor. Wo will open up after prayer-
mooting. ’ ’
Every business houso of that town
closod up and ovorybotly wont to prayor
mooting, After sorvicos woro ovor tho
drug Store null a fow of tho othor stores
opened up,
Those two incidents Speak for thorn-
solves. Tlioy need no (loliitoont nt our
hands. It would bo like Booking to
whiten with tho fullor’s art tho snowy
petals of tho'Illy.
God Almighty will certainly koop His
ubodo in tlioso two communities.
A milkman in a country town wns
brought boforo tho lineal court to an-
Hwor a charge of adulteration.
"You aro charged,” Bald tho magis
trate, “with soiling adulterated milk.
Hnvo you anything to snyt”
"Well, your honor,” replied tho milk-
ninn, “tho night boforo it was raining
vory hard nnd tho only enuso I can give
is tho cow must have got wot through. ’ ’
“Cnn you come nml help mo dean
houso, Mnmlyt”
“No’mi can’t como. I’s jlnod do
’Sociatlon ob do Folded Hands.”
Wo "editors are at hoart a truthful
bunch of follows. Ami yot when death

pay glowing tributes to his virtues, when
wo know darned well ho is slinking hands
at that moinont witli tho dovll.—Honry

Columbus, Ga.—"For ai quarter
of a century I have considered Dr.
Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery
one of my favorite remedies. When
I was teaching Bchool I spent eight
years in a malarial, swampy section,
