Did You Wear The White Rose? IIIIIIIWB T IPBB !!■ II ■ through * m+c »imI mail I.as', week The New* cairied on its editorial page a pie fora mother It was a simple request that on last Sunday a white rose be worn in honor of moth er. Did you wear it? Did you write her a letter if you were away from home? Did you tell her something plearing il you were fortunate enough to he near her? iJid you do something to lighten her burden? Ah, back of our lives stands mother, supreme, the greatest of all characters. If you tills aectlom of (ieorgla, largest (failed to wear the white (lower, if you failed to write letter, it is rot yet too Irculatlon in Baldwin county ot | late to make amends. But there's another side to this question. Mother ought to be in a man's, or a woman's every day life. It ought not to be only lor a day in a year. Still it is better to give her one day than never any at all. No matter where we may roam mother cares more for us than any one on God’s ADVERTISING KATES:—Display g rccn earth She'll sanction all our proper wishes, she upholds us in all our 25 cents per inch, special discounts for . strongest trials, gives encouragement in our most discouragihg hours. I'hc nation as a whole and the individual recognizes thegieat glory ot ! womanhood when it is turned motherhood. All realize now more clearly than ever the dismal failures of so many others and the honor of the re public rests with the mothers. This little story, following the one of last week, is only to give thanks to those who followed the request. One good lady telephoned us that she was thankful for the publication and she would wey the white rose and try to induce others to do it, in fact would form a club. And she has charming daughters who wore the rose for that mother. Don’t be alraid of the girl or the man who wears such an emblem. Hov the world needs to honor them: A prominent professional man came anc said he'd be found wearing the white Sunday. Others joined in the movement and it prospered in Millcdgvill. It's a great and glorious work and may it live through all the coming year and next year let the Second Sunpay in May be a real great day, the great est of all our days.

It it argued by some that when the great highways connecting the cities are constructed the effect will he with be still more clearly brought out. Automobiles are coming into use quite rapidly and where good roads are found nobody waits tor a train to take a trip of a hundred miles. A1 ready railroads are being robbed of hundreds of passengers they would ob tain were it not for antes and good mads. As these roads are budded the number of autos will increase and travel along the public highways will be come more general. But there is t nothe/ side to this question ol good roads. The country will build up more rapidly as the good roads and builded and the popula tion will increase.
