'1'he Davis homestead is about 1 JO miles from Hodgenville, Ky., where Abraham Lincoln was born. The obelisk, which will bo 175 foot high, is today within five feet of com pletion. It was plnnncd originally to erect a shaft 350 feet, to bo excelled only by the Washington monument, but the Jefferson Davis Homo Association decided to hasten tho unveiling in ac cordance with the wish of Confederate veterans. Anxious to’ participate in tho ceremonies, the thinning ranks of gray urged completion as soon ‘as possible. The work was started in 1917, but was interrupted by tho world war. Profiles in brrnizo of Mr. Davis and his daughter, Mrs. Margaret Davis Hayes, one of the most beautiful women of tho South, ornnmeht tho base of tho monument, which is 43 feet square. It contains a room for relics. Tho shaft is situated in Jefferson Davis Park, which takes in part of the farm on which the President of the Confederacy was born on J ime 3, 1803, less than a year before Lincoln. Tho park comprises about 22' acres. The town of Fairviow gains its name from one of the most beautiful landscapes hi the South. dost of the monumeiit to date is about $100,000, which was raised by popular subscription. Mrs. Roy McKin ney, of Paducah, Ky., president-general of- the United Daughters of the Confed eracy. at the head of a committee of daughters and Ctwfedarnte veterans, or ganized every county in the Stato to complete the shaft. fieit. Win. B. Haldonmn, formerly owner with Col. Henry Wattorson of tho Louis ville Courier-Journal, is president of the Jefferson Davis Home Association, suc ceeding the lute Gen. Bennett- H. Young of Louisville, four times coinmander-in- ehiof of the United Confederate Veter ans. Gen. George W. Littlefield, of Aus tin, Toxas, and Gen, Julian S, Caff, of Durham, N. C., wore promoters with Gen, Young of the original conception. Care of the park and .monument -will be supervised by the State of Kentucky after the unveiling, by Act of the 1920 Legislature. Two other monuments commenn-afo the Confederate Preseident—one in Richmond, Va., the capital of the Con federacy, and the other in New Orleans. Both were built through tho efforts of the women of the South. SEVEN GOOD WAYS. Telfair Enterprise.- For the bene/lt of Telfair county peo ple who want to help-- the editor and don't know how, -we aro submitting the following sevon good ways: First of all, give him the news. He wants it. Give it to him, even though sometimes it does not get into the paper. He hasn’t'time always to tell why some hits of- news aro not used; but ten to one ho has a perfectly good reason. Give him the news, even though you may not he especially interested in it. Some folks never think to give the editor news except when they are concerned in it one way or another. Second, don’t giveTiim a piece of news and teR him you want'it printed just as if"is written, .There’s a right and a wrong way to 1 do even such a simple thing as writing an article for a, country paper. One editor had to leave town because he printed every, piece of news just as it was handed in—spelling, punc tuation and all—and printed it with the namo of the person who gave it to him. Third, don’t try to' play a joke through the columns of a paper unless you explam it to the editor. A thing in cold, type looks n lot different and sounds different from a thing repeated by word of mouth. Fourth, don’t worry for fear the edi tor is making too much money; you should want him to have a comfortable living. He will he less likely to have to compromise with his conscience over cer tain kinds of advertising. And, any how,,-lie can’t make a fortune out of his paper;—he will be lucky if he keeps going. Fifth, tell your editor-when something in the paper ploases you. Once in a while you tell your pastor he has preached a good sermon; so tell the editor some thing about his paper now and then. Sixth, get your “copy” to him early. It takes time to set type and make a paper. Did you ever wonder what the editor did all the time between ijublica- tion days? You would know if you were publishing a newspaper yourself. Lastly, go in some day when the paper is being printed. Go in several times during the day, and you will have more of a realization what a job it is to make a weekly paper. WHY THE SLOWDOWN? Savannah Press. The financial review of the Mechanics and Metals National Bank of New York says that business in America will never get bettor until business abroad, im proves. Foreign feeling is still stirred up. Among victors and vanquished there still persists a taint of bitter resentment. Americans coming homo report tho exis tence of an overwrought and unhealthy state of mind in Europe. There is no doubt that this is true, lint we cannot ngree with tho hank cir cular that it is “ the fnultiliess of the peace treaty which is now showing its harmful consequences. ’ ’ As n matter of fact, it is precisely be cause the peace treaty was not concluded in Paris that the present unrest and dis traction prevail in Europe. Trade cun- not be established on a firm basis until there is a return to n wholesome and. normal condition. The responsibility, we suspect, rests upon the pooplo who for political purposes blocked the treaty of Paris. For this reason national and class feeling, fed by politics and in flamed by propaganda, are still defl dte factors in European affairs. As r nation, we have sot ourseb’es def initely against participation in foreign affairs, forgetting that we have iftjgo business stakes in tho affairs of the world. We must exercise our political and economical powor for the world’s bettorment, Wo have refused to widin our vision and adapt our economic forces to the fundamental principles upon which progress must be made. Europe ma .- tains that the United States is still ab solutely necessary to Europe’s recuper ation. As for ourselves, with tremendous obligations outstanding in Europe, and with a tremendous productive capacity seeking employment, wo know that Eu rope’s recuperation is necessary to our welfn re. The present trouble in tho world is not because of a faulty peace treaty, but I c- cause wo blocked the confirmation if t!c Peaty altogether. The world has long since recognized this fact and tho United States is gradually coming to tins be lief. ABOUT KISSING. Baltimore Evening Sun. Kissing is mi established custom In nil countries Inhabited by white people who refrain at times from eating onions. It Is a practice that insures the longevity and encourages the Imbit of malrlniuny. ami universal distribution of germ life, Some one who didn't know much about kissing said years ago that stolon kisses are sweetest. Tho opinion is still quo ted, hut all persons who have had imy experience of kisslng know better. A kiss is nover wholly satisfactory unices tho kisser ami tho kissee show an equal degree of enthusi'.sim Kissing a pretty girl doea not. afford tho unalloyed bibs it is commonly sup posed to nfford. If she Inis never boon kissed before her performance Is crude and lifeless and thoreforo a little bit disappointing, and if sho 1ms been kiss ed too often she displays a degree of technic that robs the kbs of its flavor. In the old days the flnvor of a kbs was imaginary; you couldn’t taste uuythiug hut girl. But frequently tho modem girl’s kbs has the stnle and unprofitable flavor of rouge. Some day a shrewd manufacturer will i.put out n liner of rouge iu nil tho popular flnvors—vanilla, strawberry, lemon and the like—anil then each girl can offer her young nlan" the flavor he prefers, The woman who s.it in the physician’s consulting room was certainly stout, and her .reason for being there was that .the man Of medicine might, proscribe some comae of trim triton t which would iodine her corpulency.

At the end of that time tho physician's office raw her again, stouter than ever. “Are yon sure you eat wlmt I order- Bilf” asked ttie physician, aghast, “Everything!’' nnswored the patient.

Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 15.—W. W. Crox- ton, passenger traffic ni(p»iagor af the Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic rail way, is nn optimist. He says there is no excuse for pessimism. .“Tho spirit of optimism is increasing throughout, the South among men in all linos of business,” declared Mr. Crox- elaved hero today. ‘ ‘ Of course one of the chief reasons for this change is the rise iu the prico of cotton. This wel come rise in the'prico of the staple has beyond doubt worked wonders. But this is not the only reason for returning con fidence. Everywhere there are indica tions of improvement in tile commerce of tho country,’! Mr. Oroxton pointed to the fact that business men in all sections are making encouraging statements regarding the financial outlook. Tho Federal De.pnrt- riient of Commerce, ho recalled, issued statements of tho most optimistic and pleasing nature concerning the vast im provement in exports and imports. He declared that pooplo who a few months ago wore gloomy now look cheerfully into the future with hope and courage. “Tlie man today who is a pessimist should at least have tho patriotism to refrain from talking pessimism,” as sorted Mr. Croxton. The man who howls about tho hard times which aro to eoine, the first thing in the morning and the last thing at night, does nothing to make times better. He is merely a dreary obstacle in the path of progress—a dys peptic gloom-chaser who should give his bored auditors a l'CBt and go to some deserted island for a change of scene. “Therefore let us declare war on the gloom-chasers and in the new and splen did optimism of tho day pull together for our common prosperity.” Local newspaper men have nominated Mr. Croxton for the presidency of the Bettor Feeling Club” whenever it is formed. excursion rates—central of GEORGIA RAILWAY.

Gude’s Pepto - Mangan Rebuilds the Blood. Wrestling with a weakened condition of the blood is a desperate struggle. Thin, watery blood deprives the body of energy and causes a played-out feel- iug not unlike utter exhaustion. A man with weak blood has not tho full rise of his powers. He lacks decision, and va cillates until he loses ielf-confidence., Some men, and women too, go falter ing along for months scarcely realizing that they need Gude’s Pepto-Mmigr.n, the blood-builder. But when they have taken it for a while, what a difference there is in the feelings! The old-time vigor and the red-blooded hue of good health return. The new rich blood gets to work, building, fortifying, lifting the spirit up to its normal standard. Phy sicians have prescribed. Gude’s Pepto- Mangan for years as, a blood-builder.
