Fortnightly Review, Specialized education dees not neces sarily create eiiiiipniiionublc nor evil senslhle women; else, by pnrity of ren- soiiiiig, would nil professional men be personally i-linriniiig and delightful, which undoubtedly they nre not. A girl limy lie a brilliant mathematician, a sharp critic, a faultless grammarian, and yet ho wanting in nil the tact nml temper, clear observation, ready sympa thy and noble self-control which make a companionable wife nml a valuable mother. Nor is unprofessional or unspo- cinllzcd Instruction necessarily synony mous with Idleness nnd ignorance; while a good all-around! education- is likely to prove more scrvjc(aihlo hi the homo sod in society than Ann or two Bupromo ac complishments. Milny of us make the mistake of confounding education witli accomplishments, and of running togeth er mental development and intellectual specialization. The women of whom wo are most proud ill our history were not reinnrknblo for special intellectual ac quirements so much ns foF general chnr- aider and the Imriiionious working of will and morality. Tho Lady Fnnshnws nnd EHznhctli Frys, the Mary Carpenters and the Flor ence Nightingales, wlmso nnmes axe im mortal, were not noted for their learn ing, but they were none tho less women whose mark in history is indelible. The good they did lives nfter them, and will never die. And, taking nt least one of the partially learned Indies of tho past— in it her Lntlnity and her bookishness that wc admire so much ill Lady Jane Grey, or is it her modesty, her gentle ness, her saintly patience, her devotion— In n word, is it her education or her charm-tori—the intelligent "philosopher or the sweet and lovely and noblo wo men ? o DSE SLOAN’S TO WARD OFF PAIN RUN-DOWN, WEAK rEtrasburg, Va.—"Some years ago I 4 was. in. poor health, was in a rum- down. weakened condition.

THE BOY CRIMINAL. Diiwson Nows. Tho boy criminal is now engaging not only the attention of the courts, but of nil thoughtful people. The problem iB of espocinl concern to those whoso buslnosH it is to deni with delinquents, and who nro constantly ongagod in studying de linquency. The boy criminal has become .Humorous, daring nnd delimit. Hero in Georgia us well as elsewhere many of tho most strntllng crimes of rocont happen ing wore committed by more boys. Boys lire not only oiigiigliig iu potty crimos h but in every sort of crime, from that of tho mealiest kind to major offonsos, such ns bnnk and trnin robberies. There seems to bo no limit to the imagination nnd tho daring of tho youthful criminal. It is natural, with sucli n grave condi tion existing, that Inquiry should be nindc ns to tho ciuibo or causes of it. Buell nn inquiry does not proceed far before tile discovery is inndo that many theories oxlst ns to tho renaons for tho boy criminal. Evoryono who has glvon thought to tho question has Ids own ex planation. The reasons advanced run tho gamut from luck of homo rostraiut to tho growing nud well-nigh unlvorsnl contempt for law. Luck of propor edu cation, improper motion pictures, pool rooms, gambling, publication of crimo nows, unemployment, ImIuobs—tlioso nro some of the causes of tho boy criminal that nro presented. Tho boy orliiiiiinl is difficult to mi- nlyxo. It is not possible to sny tbnt this, that, or the other tiling is directly re sponsible. ' With so many different in- lluonres reaching the boy, it is unsafe to particularize. It would be safer to nssert that all of tho hinsous .put to gether Imvo brought nliout the boy erimi nnl tlmn to say that mi,v one of them is responsible for the evil. The boy criminal is n problem of many tingles, mid it is sufficiently grave nml alarming to merit the most thoughtful consideration on tho part of every one concerned for tho future of humanity.

Progressive Farmer. A reduction in the cotton acreage <loes not mean that there will bo a larger yield per acre. In fact, anything like a marked reduction in the acreage luis in the past resulted in a reduced yield per acre. There is a general belief that when a smaller acreage is planted It is cultivated better and a better yield 1m made, but such is not the cnee. During the Inst forty years the cotton acreage has been, reduced from that of the preceding year fifteen tunes, and ten out of the fifteen times there has also been a reduced yield per acre. During these forty years, 1881 to 1920 inclusive, there 1ms been nn increase in acreage twenty-five times nbovA v the acreage of the year before, and fourteen times out of the twenty-five times there has also been nn increase iu tho yield per acre. It is therefore evident that n reduc tion iu the cotton acreage in 1921 does not indicate that there will bo an in creased yield per acre. In fact, the iu- tieatiouB, based on past records, art* that the yield per acre is likely to be also reduced. This is not at all remarkable, since when reductions in arceage are made the price is usually unsatisfactory, ami farmers are not feeling kindly to ward tin* crop. They consequently do not give the crop ns good attention, nor use as much fertilizers as usual. For many a bride-to-be there is also a tried-to-be. You realise what a story really amounts to when you see forty' chapters told in a ten-line synopsis. Ice and Ice Service It is our desire and intention to give the peo ple of Newnan the best ice service possible, and to that end we will put on four delivery wagons and a truck under our own management.

These books will be sold in denominations of $2.50, $5.00 and $10.00—payable strictly in advance.
