There is a very strange idea to nte
and has been for a decade of years,
why Northwest Georgia has not re
ceived the attention from moneyed
men, captains of finance, when it has
in fact, the capacity of being the
Pittsburgh of the state, with an a
bundance of coal and iron, timber and
water, with fine farming lands and a
general climate for stock raising. All
we need is development. We ought to
show the outside people what we
have got and those men of capital
and power will set up and take notice
of our resources. Once the father-in
law of H. Clay Evans said to me, in
speaking of Chattanooga, “This will
be a fine manufacturing city in the
future.” He was then an old man
retired from business. While he did
not live to see his prediction come
true, nevertheless, it came. And if
we will invite capital amongst us, it
is sure to make such attraction that
they can’t help coming for their own
benefit as well as ours. There is no
reason for hauling grain away from
here to make it into the finished pro
ducts but make it into the finished
product here and-save all the expense
of freight both ways and give labor
to hundreds of men now out of em
ployment, and scatter thousands of
dollars all over the northwest corner
of the State. But it takes an effort on
our part to attract tho-e manufactu
rers. We can do it.
There is a place over in West Ar-

muchee called the Old Furnace place.
Some years before the war a man by
the name of Stroop, built a small blast
furnace there and user char coal for
fuel and made cooking vessels and dog
irons for the fire place, and peddled
them over the country in wagons and
got rich. Then he went down into
Bartow County and built other iron
works on a bigger scale. They, after
I his death, fell into the hands of Major
Marshall Cooper. Such can be done
| in Northwest Georgia. We have as
i good or better opportunities than did
| Cooper. What coal he got from the 1
ground he shipped to Etna mines in
Tennessee. Again see how those capi
talists take hold of things. For ex
ample, see the Union Cotton Mills,
how quick St was gobbled up.

Mrs. Day seems to be getting along
very nicely at present.
About a three days rain would bp
very much appreciated at present as
a large number of people are hauling
water.
The cotton is almost gathered in

as heretofore. There is nothing to be
made fooling with cotton now.

“In what manner should a married
man spend his evenings?” is being
discussed in some of the magazines.
Wjth a wife and six girls at home,
we know how we are spending ours,
and the mornings, too, if anyone
should happen to ask you. It’s an aw
ful life, but I see no reason why the
maguzines should discuss it, unless
some woman writer' delights in hu
miliating the men.
A noted physician puts out the ad
vice, eat alligator pears and fried
chicken three times each day to re
duce. He don’t say what kind of re
duce, but he must mean your bank
roll.
It sounded very much like “Yes,
we have no bananas,” and a certain
young lady and her sweetie tip-toed
nearer the room to hear it more plain
ly. How do you imagine they felt
when they heard the girls singing,
"Yes We Have No Pajamas”?
Some men are continually worrying
about the probability of their wives
marrying again if they should die.
We advise you to cut out this worry
—don’t worry over, another man’s
troubles.
A young lady was out riding with
her best fellow a few days ago in a
nice little Ford, when he stopped at
a filling station and usked for a quart
of gas. When the gas man had put
the gas in the tank he looked up and
said, “Are you trying to wean it?”
I suppose everybody has figured
out the relationship existing between
the parties inquired about by Men
tone, so it will be too late for us to
teach them anything along these
lines. But I am surely sorry for this
boy of his, by his first wife, from tic
fact that he became his own stipi
brother-in-law when he married his
step sister. If someone else had mar
ried this girl, he would have been the
boy’s step-brother-in-law, and as he
married her himself, he is his own
step-brother-in-law. And then, his
own father is his step-father-in-law,
as he married his father’s step
daughter. And then, as he married
his step-mother’s daughter, she is his
mother-in-law aiso. And again, if
someone else had married this step
! sister, and children were born he
I would have been their step-uncle, but
|as he married her, he is simply a
step uncle to his own children. So his
father is his step-father-in-law, his
step-mother is his mother-in-law, he
I is step-uncle to his own children.
I P. S.—Since figuring out the above,
I have learned something more about
this mx-up—if this boy’s aunt had
been a man, she would have been his
uncle.

the gilded palaces occupied by him,
the misguided millions to follow him,
it is a wonder the above is not true.
With no gilded halls, no rich splen
dor, there gathered together one
night last week a crowd to witness
the initiation ceremonies of selecting
new members for entrance into the
erder of the Ku Klux Klan, which
were held in the open air. With only
the heavens above them, and ths soil
of Walkr County beneath them, the
shining stars and the fiery cross made
a picture to be remembered. While
the light from the fiery cross made
the robes look weird at times, it was
a weirdness in which every true A
merican takes a delight, if he under
stands the first principles of the or
der.
At no other gathering could you
see a crowd like this—one hundred

I am frank in saying they have
been doing u world of good in these
parts, and from present indications
they will continue along the same
