THE NEWNAN HERALD, NEWNAN, GA., FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1921. ICEEPING THE YOUNG PEOPLE AT HOME. Telfair Enterprise. ' All country people like to hoo tliolr young folks settle down op the farm, hut they fail to tnko any stops to accomplish that result. .Tho first thing to bo «lonc to keep them is to give them a chance, from early childhood, /to have littlo enterprises of their own. The old-tlmo farmer’s- .boy had practically nothing ho could call his own. {Sometimes a calf or other oninml to which ho became, attached would be called his. Ho would give timo and thought to its care. But when it wns sold his father would pocket tho money, telling the hoy ho would use it to buy clothes for him. Tho hoy felt he was entitled to tho clothes anyway, ho ho was getting no re turn for pll tho effort ho had made to bring up that calf. This tends, to do* velop a feeling of resontmont in his mind, and a dislike for rural life. Ho inukoH up his mind that the first chance lie gets he will strike out for himself and go out into tho world whore what ever he does will count directly and vis ibly in his own interest. Tho hoys’ and girls’ clubs formed r.'l over this country have furnished to a Inrgo extent u solution of this problem. Thoy encourage rural families to lot their children have their own enterprises, their own gardens and pigs and calves and other products. A boy who has these projects of Ids own comes to look, •at country life in a wholly different way. He 1h incited to study scientific moth ode, and he can sec ways by which rural industries can boconw more profitable. Ho gctB interested in competing with other young pcopio. Instead of dreaming about fabulous fortunes in some great city he is pon- *doring how he can make thpt calf of his .grow faster. Country lifo scorns full of 'hope for him, he gets the rural point of view, and loses tho restless dcsiro to 'wander. 1 “PERSONAL LIBERTY.” Hov. Goo. I,. Kind, in Mnyiivlllo Enter-' prise. . A young woman was killed. Whiskey wns responsible. This wns on tho West ern const. A young woman shot another one, perhaps fatally, anil thou killed herself. Whiskey was responsible. This was on the Eastern coast. And oil be tween this broad land of ours tragic wrecks and eternal ruin follows in the wake of demon rum, and yet—and yet— Home thoughtless creatures rave about * ‘ personal liberty. ’ ’ The men who have made their fortunes and built their palatial residences from the fears and sorrow and poverty of drink-crazed men are using much ener gy and money in their effort to under mine the prohibition law. It is pitiful to hear some one repent ing the silly and heartless’ nonsense, ignoruncc. Their inconsistency is amusing, In one breath thoy declare that tiio prohibition Inw takes away their personal liberty, and in tho next breath they will toll you that the law- doesn’t prohibit. They..find fault with the low because it undertakes to do too much, mid then they blame the lnw be cause it does not work Witli perfect success, ■When wo vend some thbigsi and hear some people talk, wc me not surprised that the asylum for the insane is overt crowded. Collegiate Advantages. Nothing cron live ever yet came out of a crowd iinlest; ft was put there first by individuals nnd smaller groups. It Is friends talking by the fireside who make history; nnd the choice of friends Is perhaps the. most• responsi ble J*b which falls to a student’s lot. If college life ‘line no other justifica tion. It Is worth while for the leisure It gives you to choose those who will become, you will find, your life’s com panions.—Prof. A. E. Zlmmern. Forceps In hand, the young dentist •Approached his nervous patient. “You’re sure you’re nn experienced man?” inquired'the victim, noting tho -dentist’s youth. “I’m—I’m quite u • o-ownrd, you know! Hal Hal” “My dear sir,” nssurod the youth, ‘“in ono minute it will be over. 80! Ah!. Now then.” “Yow-howl” roared tho patient, clnsping Ids hand to his jaw. Thou ho looked up, to see tho dentist smiling btiiravolantly at him. “There!” said the young man. “That’s out. Ilid It hurt?” “Hurt I” roared tho patient. “Hurt!” He made an experimental tour around Ids gums with Ids tongue. A terrible discovery wns the result. “Young man!” ho shrieked, “you’ve pulled out the wrong one I ” “1 know,” suiti the dentist, “but now I can get at the other one more •easily.” The Chicago policeman who did not recognize Mr. Bryan the other day must have been a Republican.
