Cut down the weeds around *he house, clean up gener.allv, try to avoi 1 sickness. ^It may be a little bit ex pensive some times, but it will not be so expensive as the doctor's bill, and then there'll be the stillcring too, the awful anxiety. Wc don’t want to ask people to do things they don’t want to do. I.aw fotccs people to do that, lor most of us wouldn't follow the law if we didn’t have to: especially when it comes to paying taxes. But somehow we've an idea that Milledgeville folk really stand lor the law when it is made lor their good, for their health, happiness and prosperity. Won't'you get to work now and join the progressive band and <|uit being one of the other kind, the kind that is always —well we wont say anything more. XDEiCIjEri I3NT A bill has been introduced in the leg- ! Mature providing for the establishment j of the city court of Milledgeville and 1 the following card has been forwarded j to the Georgian by a prominent citizen fl of this city criticising the same: Editor of AltaataGeorgian: COFFINS AND *CASKETS | Well Equipped in this Department and Carrv a Full and Complete Line ’Phones: Nos. 65 and 2541 We have in this s ate IIS counties , ^|j e p r if^ e 0 f the county, Uie joy of our! county on this subject, as it is one that people, and a blessing to our people, and concerns every person in the county. , town* or | a We3sjn(f tQ QUr Rtock | Very respectfully, has a judicial system peculiar to I and ut least that may towns or cities. J Each one of these counties cities itself-ro uniformity whatever as to jurisdiction or mode of procedure. This local nr class legislation is the curse of our state and the wreck of our judi ciary. it is the offspring most generally of some young and ambitious Solon who is providing a future place for himself or friends at present, without counting the cost or caring a whit for the future 1 of his constituents. What is the advan-1 tage of changing any county court to a city court? It only makes more places to fill, more complications and more taxes for the poor to pay. It would be far better for the common people to abolish some courts we now have than to change or make new ones. OBSERVER. Milledgeville, Ga., July . r >.

Only the resplendent future must be kept in view today.^The heart aches, the pains and trials must be forgotten. The distasteful memories" must be blotted out of the treasury of the mind. The sorrow and sadness must give way to joy and gladness. The sting of defeat must be supplant ed by the thought of coming victory. The grief the heart lias known must be erased by the touch of time today. The monsters that have threatened to stay our onward tnaii lt, have retreated before tile completing hosts of the Time. Everything is promising. What alliance lor .■> new supreme efiort. It does not matter it things have gone wrong at times,the only thing that exists now is'a blurred and blot ted spot on the road ol yesterday, and the level stretch in the path ol the future is recompense enough. The memory of such events must be cast away in forgotten niches. The time is at hand for a new work to begin Theie is’new strength (or every eftoit we need to put forth. There is a triumph for every defeat. Tliete is a friend lor every foe. Down-hearted and dis couraged though we may beat times, there is always a star of hope. This veiy evening there is a idling star that will bring back to mind torn! recol lections ol — “Sunset and evening star, And one clear call lor me." Every heart has a star that will shine ftrever in its life, though some may try to hide it. The duty that counts for most is that spirit of right which predominates in every heart, it is me writing that is engraved on the heart. It may be covered up with t ie debris ot time and smothered down by a dire growth of misunderstanding, but after the lapse of )cars, after the days are gone when promise was golden, the engraving will be there intact. It will stand out in bold rebel, a signal for another soul. It will be a beacon light to show where barks have foundered on crag bound shores after drifting past isles of flowers, it is the only lesson that people must learn. Only the survival of the great truth, that hearts must sutler before we learn the best there is in life, that we must struggle and be brave before we realize the good that lies this side ol the grave. Somehow there is one consolation—God-given—to a struggler who tries earnestly and fails. There may be no laurel-crowned achievements to his credit, but there will be a reward for the failure, as applied to man, when lie comes up and says: “Mailed, but I played my part as best I could.'* Mistakes in every life ate frequent. The soul tnat is infalliable has not been found. But little as some may think about it. when we trv the hardest to please, it i* then we lad to get appreciation. Yet aftet the struggle is over, the grand est t!i uiglit ot it all is to know and realize t '..it when once the goal ts won when he snuggle is onde ! and the tight is over we can look back and say i.uewed, we have fou;ht a'good light. An 1 that is the way it is to lay. The trials and temptations that beset :s iti • o lavs ol the pi-t are no longer at on id us They have been thrust nto tin* hall of wasted things, where the gray-robbed angel of oblivion seeps i silent guard fir aye. The d ivs to be are only days of promise, as ■\e make them ’1 he lut-ite will come pretty much into our way of thinking t we will only strive to make it so. And who could ask tor more? ). C. McA.

There 1 is one day in each year set apart and observed as Arbor Day, for the planting of trees.
