. - vv. THE NEWNAN HERALD, NEWNAN, GA., FRIDAY, APRIL 29, 1921. BO YOU VISIT SCHOOL? If you will take the time some lifter- - noon mill visit. ono of our pUhllfl schools tho pleasure the- visit will give you will bn mtiplo remuneration for tlio time and labor it costs. Tlioro is something, to nn nituH, in n school-room full of pupils, all of tliom • engaged in the study of tlielr lossoim. that onuses old members of fresher and more youtlifiil days to throng a mind, perhaps too busily engaged with other ■■■cure* to appreciate and understand the growth of mind And development of rea son that exist In the little men and wo men all about us, and it innkos ono fool it If “ recess ” had eoine, and the strug gle for existence is entered upon with --renewed vigor. Tlio bright faces oeca* sionuily cloud with a frown ns some problom uproars n stubborn front. Then the laughing eye and glance of the vie- -tor nro evidences of n soveror struggle that is to bo faced by tlio mature mind • of the same student, They are the trail jrient reflections of our own dally strug glcs. It is only when one grows Imggnrd with the cures of life, when passion and : avarice mid envy have'seared the soul - and destroyed its freshness that n - glimpse of past- peace and onso is vouch safed ub In looking nt mid guarding the - development of our littlo ones, that they mny, more easily thou we, ovoreomo the Jlaborious tasks that Have boworl us. And how much do wo owe' the tancliorf Not money can measure the accomplished •good. Thanks nro poor payment for overtaxed patience. We must have a deep nnd heartfelt appreciation ’ of n never-ending labor that does more for - you iuuI yours than yon yourself can do —that is the only way tho parent cun repay tlio tenehor. ' The teacher does something besides setting the tasks nml hearing recitations. Hhe trains tho moral up well ns tlio moil- tnl faculties. Bhe curbs impatience nml stimulates the laggard. She directs tho mentally dull and loads tlio struggling .-senses into paths Mint enable wonk rea son to grow strong und reliant upon wliilt * it feeds. She stimulates all the higher : faculties nod represses tho baser. When you honr fifty youthful voices singing, “Tlio Bod, White and Bluo,” T . their faces alive witli enthusiasm, their littlo bodies all a-thrill witli patriotism, your eyes will suddenly bo affected witli - a. strange smarting, your vision will - cloud, your heart quiver witli an niiswor- , ing thrill, and you will feel that it is to ■ the teacher in our public schools that we : are Indebted for n great, a glorious mid : a patriotlo people. You will lcavo tlio -• school refreshed and ginddonod In tho ■ thought that In the care of such ns they the future of our children Is sociiro and - safe. GET IT BY WINNING. Exchange- . 'Father, 1 want a new baseball mitt.” He got it Later we talked with the father, and In the course of the conversation remark ed that his hoy seemed to have just about everything he happened to wiint- “Yes, 1 give him anything he wants, if it is within my power to get it for him," replied tho boy’s fnther- “But aren’t you afraid of overin dulging lilmf” wo naked. “No, sir,” emphatically- “I believe it is tlio thing to do-” Ho paused until tlio reinnrk had time to sink in and nssimilnto, then he con tinued : 1 ‘ I bellovo a child should bo given everything ho wants, if within reason- Lot him get the habit of getting whnt ho wnnts in his budding years, anil when lie readies seniority that linbit will ubldo witli him und put him on easy street. ’ ’ This was a new angle, and there was no further argument- But, on sober nml second thought, we nre inclined to believe that this theory is wrong- Tho habit of getting wiint one wants is nn ndmirablu ono, indeed—if ono wins it- Blit’ whon one Ims hod every desire gratified without effort, he mny get the idea that they will come in the same manner in the ond of tlio gnmc—but they won’t. When wo got into tlio honost-to-good- noBa battle of life, when the other fel low wnntls tile sumo thing we want, when lio fools lie just must have it, there will bo a struggle—and the host man wins- If wo wnnt that boy to got whnt ho wants, It is well, but let him earn it- Then ho will appreciate it after it is won. Tlio author of “David Hamm’’ wnnt : ed his manuscript publiBhod; but tlio first publisher to wiiOm ho submitted It did not accept it; nor tile second, nor tlio twentieth- But ho fought on and struggled and HtroineiV—and won. Tlioro is nn old saying to tlio effect that ‘ ‘ wlintcver we get that is wortli while, wo miiBt pay just wiint it is worth- ’ ’ So, get tho linbit of paying- Evorythlng eomes to him who waits- if ho works hard enougli while ho is waiting- o COTTON IN SOUTH AMERICA. San Franelscd Ohroniclo. Tlioro is u world-wldo sonrcli for areas - .vlspted to raising cotton, and tlioro is no reason to doubt tlmt. such areas exist ■ -nml will be utilised, .lust now nortJioru Argentina and adjoining portions of Praguny mid Bolivia seem most prom ising, although hitherto most exploration Tina been dlroeted, to Africa. Nor is •there, nay reason to doubt tlmt tlio quali ty of Chinese and other Asiatic cotton ■flu bo greatly Improved. Our Southern •■ Stntos lmvo no monopoly of cotton land. Blit cleurly, South America Hs most . promising. And it is quito time that tho lieoplr of tho United Stntos should got «t into their bonds tlmt fSouth America is po longer to bo considered n nogllblo factor iu production mid commerce ox- s.-ept in respoct to cnttlo, anil coffoo. Braj.il nlono is larger than tlio United ■ States mid is not- unlikely some time to support u Ini-gor population. South America is economically about whore ■ tills country was u century ngo, mid its imriod of oxpmislon nud nccuimilntioii of wealth is still bofore it. And if, ns there is reason to believe, temperate •South Amotion has climate and soil suit;- ' ed to cotton-growing those countries enn, .- and very likely will, suporBOile tills coun try ns tlio main source of cotton, nt J least until tlioy lmvo exhausted tho vir- i gin fertility of thoir soils, Nor will tlio growth of tho cotton iu- - liiistiy elsewhere bo miy advantage to tlio people of our cotton States. Tho tinio has come when those States must devote themselves to diversified ngrloul- lure and cease depleting their soils by continuous one-crop farming. Our South ern States will always raise cotton. It Is not improbable that in duo time their production of that staple will greatly In crease, but on n much smaller aroii, re- ' stored to its prlmnl fertility by Intelli gent diversified farming. But our wisest men are turning their attention to 8outh America. It is the best watered of tho continents and its - streams nre inexhaustible sources of ■ power. It lias nn iibnndmu-o of rich •arcus. Its mineral resources lmvo al ready been touched, (it; is sparsely pop ulated), mid it is near to us. in our own interest, in the interest of the two -continents, we should stop putting on airs and cultivate tlio closest nml most friendly relations with the South Amort- - -mn nations. THE CHRISTIAN EDUCATION MOVEMENT. The Christian Education Movement of the Methodist Episcopal church, South, Ims mi allotment of ono million dollars in its budget as nu aid fund to educate boys mid girls for Christian life Service- Other churches have shown Southern Methodists tlio way and revealed the priceless value of help to worthy men mid women whose lives have boon en nobled for high service for their fellow- men. Tho Presbyterian churches haw hundreds of thousands of dollars in thoir loan funds transformed each year into brain, spiritual energy and moral fibre;' tlio money returning rogulnrly into tlio treasury to fare fortli agnin through the years on Its mission of light and liberation- - Tho Methodist Episeopnl church linn made loans to 23,952 of her students, amounting to more thnn $2,500,453- To date more thnn $000,000 has boon return ed, and these returns nre coming back at the rate of $50,000 per year- Tho schoolmaster in “Beside the Bon nie Brier Bush,” standing before the rich Inird in behalf of the poor but bright Scotch boy, pleads: “You think I mn asking a great tiling whon I plead for a littlo note to give a poor laddie a college education. I tell you, man, I’m honoring you nud giving you the fairest chance of winning wealth- Give your Btoro the money you have scraped by many n hard bargain, some heir you never saw’ll mako it floe in clamoring nml wantonnoss- Give your head tlio hqnrt to spend it on a lad o’ parts like Geordio IIowo, you would have two re wards no man could tuke from you.

TOWN FEft A JOB OF PRINTING, NOU’B.6 BOOSTING TUfrT TOWN WHAT IS WRONG? Cincinnati Enquire?. Tlioro seems to be general agreement tlmt many tilings are radically wrong, ovon in this once domoerntie, liberty- loving land of Amorlcu. A symposium of opinion, tho expressions of quite a number of more or loss prominent peo ple, informs u listless public tlmt moral ity is nt very 'low ebb in the United States, It is nn ill wind tlmt blows nobody good, but. tlio moral reformers seem to lmvo nil tho host of tlio luck. There nro no imompinyod in that lino of business. Tlio prenjdent of tlio Smidodrlm which unanimously affirms that our morality fopldly is surging out over tho bar of lioniml righteousness insists, that immod est drqss Ih to blame for nil our sliding Sutmiward. Anothor brotvsor in tho vineyard of reform is confident that layk of religious training is to hlnmo, A num ber of other sorious-miiided folks are confirmed in tlio bollof tlmt our moral letdown is duo' to war reactions. But one bold disciple—how lie obtained a passport to tlio mooting is not disclosed —rose in his placo nnd declared that tho real reason for our holl-bont conditions 1b prohibition. He mode out n cubo quite as Htrong as that roeontly made out by Miles Bouton in the Jnmmry number of tlio Atlantia Monthly, and, nnturnlly, that broke up tlio mooting. Each of tlioso tilings bus contributed to tho ebbing nutionnl. morality, but nil of thorn combined have not contributed so muoh to this unfortunate condition ns tlio over widening propaganda that inef ficiency and mediocrity are entitled to equal reward with efficiency nnd excep tional morit, Boilod down, this js the poisonous doctrine of all alleged reform ers. Tlioro nre no corner lots in tlio heaven of commercialized evnugollBin, unless, maybe, for the boss ovungelists. But, porhnps, aftor all wo nre not so immoral ns we nro charged with being, Sovonty-four-ycnr-old Mr. Edison re-' marked recently upon tlio occasion of his birthdny: “Absolutely nothing, is the mutter.

The sad intelligence of tho dentil of tho children's nnd young peoplo’s friend nml companion, Mrs- Effio Doster, was received by tho writer, w(io wishes to express her appreciation of our dear de parted friend’s sweet Christian ehnrnc-, . ter nnd tho noble influence that she lmd-f exerted so grandly and unselfishly upon other young pooplit Alns! ’tis nil too true that the hand tlmt once swayed the pen of that eloquent nnd gifted helper of mankind has been stilled and made motionless by tlio inevitable hand of death- Hoiv sad to think that the earth- ly tenement tlmt- once contained this sweet nnd gentle spirit 1ms gone down into the channel of tho grave, nnd glided over tho mystic. river- But cniuiot this precious thought comfort us, tlmt if God enn cause a seed to lie dormant in tho heart of tlio enrth through tlio cold, blcnk storms of winter, .and then when tho warm hrenth of spring conies cause it to burst, fortli into new life, freshness and boauty, that Ho can transplant the glorified spirits of our departed friends and relatives to tlmt celestial clime where tlio chilli- blasts of winter nre never felt nor storm and tempest beat upon -its blissful shorof By tlio death of Mrs. Effio Doster the county 1ms lost one of its most gifted nnd lovable women- She has set n last ing and worthy example to -the youth of our land, which is indeed wortliy of emulation; and, boys and girls, let us wlio have been within reach of this grand woman’s noble influence strive to tho utmost to follow in her footsetps; and, like her, when we lay down the weary burden of life nnd take up tlio ransomed crown, leave behind us sucli “footprints upon the snmls of Time as she did- A Friend- Good Reason.
