LACK OF HOME DISCIPLINE DE
PLORABLE.
Editor Herald: Beading an article
by Forrest CriBsey, in The Saturday
Evouiug Post of April 16/1 promised
my patriotic self to do wliat I could to
wake up my friondB to the ueed for more
interest, in school conditions, and knowl
edge of educational problems on the part
of parents especially—and on the > part
of 'every] other person wlib has any inter
est in' civilization and the good of, our
country—but a multiplicity of duties
kept crowding the purpose ahead to to
morrow and tomorrow, until yesterday
n. friend from n neighboring town told
of conditions in a nearby school that
startled me.
It has been only a fow- months since
we read of u teacher bemg cut to death
by a. boy.
God knows, the teacher 's job is hard
enough, little onoiigh attractive, with the
pdvontB ’ indifference, bad example and
low pay, to discourage applicants. Wliat
will bo the end if the teacher has to
face subordination equal to that found
among convicts in our prisons?
The inciting to murder, inculcating
lawlessness in the home, is not the, teach
er’s problem; it is the community’s
problem, the parents’ problom.
My principles on the whipping ques
tion, and on the teacher’s prerogative
to whip if necessary, are—
“No school or home can be managed
without authority :.to enforce obedience.
Discipline must be enforced. If it takes
flogging to do it, let the flogging bo
done. 1 ItvP':
“If you need'a whipping that yotl do
not get, so long as life shall last you
will suffer for the need of that correc
tion.’’ These are tho instructions I
havo given all the children I have lovpd,
and who have come to me with com
plaints of their teachens.
David said, “Thy rod and thy .Stall
they comfort me. ’ ’
Solomon said, “The rod and reproof
give wisdom; but a child, left to him.
Belf briageth his mother to shame. ’
“Withhold not correction from tho
child, for if thou beatest him with- the
rod; lie shall not die,’’ “Thou shnit
beat him with the rod, and. deliver his
soul from hell. ”
Children: properly taught at home be
have, and are' law-abiding everywhere
else. ''By the' children’s conduct ate tho
characters of the parents judged.
If the teacher is an improper person
to have authority over' chid ran the jm-
rents should know it' and seo that, the
teacher is relieved of the job, and not
instigate the children to murder rind'
lawlessness.
With your approval, Mr. Editor, „I
wish in a later, article to say something
about, the methods of toacliiug , 'in use in
our section. Idly Reynolds.

TWO CARROLL COUNTY MEN DIE
FROM NOXIOUS GAS.
Carrollton Free-Press, 18tb irist.
Messrs. Lang Douglas and Bob Hors
ley are dead from gas and injuries re
ceived while working in a well at Bob
Horsley’s homo, 4% miles from Carroll
ton. Last Week they, dug a well for Mr.
Horsley and had readied .a depth of
about 00 feet on Thursday evening. Fri
day morning Horsley went down into the
well and at once discovered gas fumes
and called for 1 help. A rope and
bucket were lowered into the woll. Mr.
Horsley either coold not, or did not,
tie himself with the rope, but placed
himself in or on the bucket and fens
drawn up, but when he reached fresh
air at the top he lost consciuosness and
fell back into tlib well, a depth of 00
feet. It was then that Mr. Lang went
down into the well and tied Mr. Hors
ley, who was .drawn out. Mr. Douglas
then felt-that he, tod, was being over
come with gas, and called for help, but
there were no other men thero, so they
had to send for a neighbor, Mr. Milt
Norton,, who lived possibly half a mile
away. Mr. Norton quickly responded
to the call, and when he reached tho
scene, without saying a word to anyone,
rushed down into the well, tied Mr.
Douglas, and then called for him to bo
drawn out. Douglas was dead, but Nor
ton reached the top of the well in safety.
Mr. Horsley was rushed to the Car
rollton Hospital, but his injuries, in
ternal and external, were so groat that
he died Saturday night.
Douglas was 38 years old and la sur
vivod by his wife and three children.
Horsley was 31 years old and is
survived by his wife and two children,

FRIENDSHIP.
Geo. M. Cohan. ^
No really successful map in this coun
try, or any other, ever got anywhere ex
cept by clean-cut, honest, straightaway
mothoils. ,
Friendship is the most essential tiling
in the business world, or in 'any other
walk of life. And you can’t make
friends by browbeating and tearing
down and destroying everybody and
everything you come in contact yith.
This isn’t a tough world. It’s abeam
tiful world, a peach of A world, if you
think right and live right, and find out
what is the most important thing in life
—and that is happiness. And the way
to get it is to create it—and the only way
to keep it is to spread it around.
Now you take my tip and don ’t go
about preaching that hardflsted doctrine
you handed out to me, because you are
only going to lead some young fellow
astray.: Go out in the yard and dig that
pit again and find your heart and put
it back where-it belongs, because you art-
only cheating yourself, old boy—cheat
ing yourself out of the only thing worth
while; and that’s being able to walk
bang up to yopr mirror, look yourself
straight in the eye and say, “Kid, yon’re
all right.” That's what I do every night
before I hop in bed, and, believe me,
when I hit the pillow I sleep like a new
born babe anfl wake up in the morning
hungry for my breakfast.

r 0RE THAN TRAFFIC CAN BEAR
Itlnnta Journal.
V’It. shouliTbe perfectly clear, oven
'Washington, D. O.,” .declares
Oregon Journals ‘ 'that unless freight
rateil ttro materially reduced the reliance
of fcliejPaelflc coast must be placed upon
water transportation, and that unless tho
charge? of water transportation are made,
.economically attractive the great, produc
tion enterprises of this region face dis
aster. ’ ’
The, problom is not peculiar to the Pa
cific const. Throughout tile United
States high costs of transportation havo
uutowardly affected industry and com
merce, and tho revenues ofe.tho carriers
as Well. That tho latter must bo vouch
safed an adequate return, a return suf
ficient to take care of noodful repairs
ai;d impi'ovenents and at the samo time
to -pay fair dividends, goes without say
ing; the rights Of tho railroads (not
theii spseial privileges ndr their exploita
tion by advontures in high finance) are
no longer challenged by responsible men.
But .they are now in tho singular pVo-
dieamenti it'would seem,-'of having rates
which 'are too high for tlieir own good!
arid certainly too high for tho good of
producers, shippers and eonsuinors. The
riurnbor of idle freight ears is Baid to
exceed any records of the leanest soasons
gone by, and many railway companies
arg reported to be ip sore straits, not
withstanding repeated rata increases.
Some solution there must be if 'busi
ness iB to be encouraged and transpor
tation interests thomsalvcfl placed on a
stable basis. To tax traffic more than
it can bear is to destroy it.
It is greatly to be hoped that a ro-
Iieying and constructive answer may bo
found.
“Where has all the monoy gone? Who
Has the money? Where ean I get qome
money?” Those are the questions ono
hears many times a dqy. Nobody seoms
to have the exact answer to these per
plexing questions, but it is certain that
a lot of money was burned up in gaso
line, invested in worthless stocks, spent
for luxuries and used up in having a
“good time.” A few wise old lords
salted down, theirs and still have it.—

FAMILY HEADACHES.
When a woman lias a headache she
walks around tlio House with a Handker
chief' wrapped arottnd Hor liond, a lot of
camphor on a rag, and alto scolds tlio

child who fe'iilly doesn't deserve it, and
wonders' wlmfc in the world she river got

She says-.she is : lotting it Wear off, but
it’s tlio family wlio endriVOS’ tlio wearing
process, and until too hpndgehe wears
off the entire establishment omltires' It.
When a man getB tt headache lie comoB
home and announces that. Ho Is going to
die, Thon lie goes to bod, sends for tlio
doctor, takes whatever ha: gives, groans
and makos a groat ado in general, gets
the sympathy of tlio household,. Hi|d to

down town: and relate to Ills .friends how

he had, and how only tlio skill of Ms

After all, it may,be that the mnscullno 1

continues: "I had a pain
in my chest after eating-
tight, uncomfortable feel

DRY-CURED SWEET POTATOES
SHIPPED TO ENGLAND,
Atlanta Journal.
Tho results of an Interesting test ship
ment of kiln-driod qweot potatoes from
Montezuma, Ga., to London, England,'
wore made public Friday morning at the |
headquarters of the Georgia Farm Bu
reau Federation, in which it is shown
that the potatoes not only arrived in
London, but brought an averngo of 10
conts a pound, ,
Tho tost was imtfio by the market divis
ion of the State College of Agriculture I
in collaboration with tlio U. S. Bureau of
Markets, The shipment was made on
March 7, arid wore on sale iri London on.
April 1.
R, A. Kolley, president of the Farm
Bureau Federation, in discussing the tost,
sayH it shows conclusively that sweet po
tato growers in Georgia could cure their
potatoes by the drying method, ship them
■abroad and secure a good price. He said
that tho export of swoet potatoes would I
bo one of the, movemerits that the Farm
Biiroau expocted to push this year.
The BWcot potatoes shippod were cured
in a drying bouso of the type approved
by the U, S. Bureau of Markets. It is
announced that further tests will be f
mado from time to time.
A valuable Georgia weekly makes this
very interesting notation: “The average |
country newspaper may bo full of opti
mism, courage, faith and high ideals,
but it Is scarce on advertising. Too
many business men either have no defi
nite’purpose for tho-new year or refuse
to back up their convictions by adver
tising in tho homo paper. It is a signif
icant fact that during dull periods tho
