Seek ye first tne kingdom of God and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. —Matthew 6:33. --O Hoover is a much greater man in his defeat than Roosevelt in victory. o This presidential election was ir: keeping with the goofus, trend of mind now so prevalent in this country. Beer and whiskey has saved ( T) Europe, perhaps it will now save the United States? European countries with the cheap labor goods wanted Roosevelt. We trust the Ameri can workman is now satisfied. Al Smith will be the Colonel House of the next administra tion. The democrats are just funny that way. A title for the theme song of the united States, “We Want Beer.” Hoover went down, over powered, but fighting with his head up. We shall over cherish the thought that we were not a party to sinking this nation doener in to t he evils of drink. ' , -O Perhaps this is the “Freedom and Democracy,” we have heard so much about. A Democratic administration put. this nation in debt, now let’s see them get it out. -O The people evidently want their “Pork” by the barrels. -O You cannot beat the Literary Digest at theTr game. It seems that there will not even be standing room at the “Pie” 0011010 ]’. The United States Supreme Court has granted the seven Alabama negroes a new trial and rightly so, no doubt. Racial prejudice and the heat of passion at the time of the dastardly crime may have been the means of a biased trial. -O— Now if the Rouse veil-Garner crowd do what they promised, the United States will be ready for a Mussolini within a years time. The Democrats are running after a mirage. If they bring economic stability to this coun try in the next four years they will have to adopt every Hoover plan for recovery. In throwing to the winds Tuesday the gains for good to humanity, the Eighteenth Amendment brought us, the Christian churches took a back ward step. By their acts they have strangled the very faith they professed. The non Christian can well now doubt some of their teachings. .(). The fact that so many people in Camden county and all over Georgia voted the straight Republican ticket is gratifying to us. For a people so steeped in partisan customs we think this a great victory to independent thinking. U'ATENTS AND TRADE-MARKS 1C.A.SNOW–CO. Successful Practice since 1875.

Dangerous Driving Months The fall and winter months arc the most dangerous of the year for automobile driving. Rain, snow, sleet, hail and ice; early darkness, haste reach home and escape the cold, tightly closed cars and low visibility, all contribute to the hazards. Skidding is a chief danger of cold weather driving. The motorist must confront not only a visible wet or icy surface, but one hidden under a bed of fallen leaves. Last year 1,740 persons were killed and 51,720 injured in 44,- 510 accidents due to skidding cars. “The automobilist cannot carry the driving practices of the late spring and summer over to the fall and winter without running a great risk of accident, says Maxwell Halsey, Traffic Engineer of the National Bureau of Casualty and Surety Under writers. “Conditions become vastly different in the last three months of the year, and the driver must take them into con sideration.” Mr. Halsey lays down certain rules for the dan gerous driving months. “Have your car thoroughly inspected for any mechanical de feats that may have developed during the summer. “Be especially sure your brakes arc effective; be sure your tires are in first class con dition, also your lights and your windshield wiper. “Cut down on your summer speed. “Allow for early darkness and for decreased visibility. “If you find your car going in to a skid, do not jam on your brakes.” Available statistics indicate that automobile fatalities in the United States decreased about 12 per cent the first 7 months of this year. If that record were to be maintained up to, and includ ing December 31st, it would mean that the number of human live? taken by motor cars during the year would fall below 30,000 for the first time since 1928. However, the supreme tbst i* now being applied. Every agency nowadays is endeavoring to bring about a reduction in auto mobile insurance rates. A winter driver should realize that he cant contribute most to the success of this movement by driving which will decrease the number of accidents. Under the most perfect condi tions. the driver of an automo bile should exercise extreme care And when the bad days come, that care should he stretched to the utmost. Frocks Of Burlap Bags At Cost Of 30 Cents Worn By Ga. Girls Waycross, Ga., Nov. 10 (GPS) —Who said Georgia girls were not resourceful in these “hard times?” They’re making frocks of burlap bags at a cost of 30 cents—and some labor. The idea came from Miss Beulah Harden i lome demonstration agent for Clinch, Atkinson and Echols counties and has spread Georgia’s naval stores belt until many girls have learned to cert bags into swell dresses. 1 Many of the dazzling and purple frocks seen in. Georgia this years are plain bags under the dye. are plentiful. Every farm a surplus.

The worst that could happen to the country is federal owner ship of all railroads with its at tendant political management and its consequent debale as shown during the World War. It is high time to give the matter serious consideration. Hard To Believe A young girl was recently expelled from school because she insisted that George Wash ington was born at Wakefield, v n„ and not at Mt. Vernon. Strangely enough it was stated that the school board ratified the expulsion and lifted it only after the mother of the girl ap peared before them with litera ture obtained from Wakefield on a previous visit. A Department of Education could be helpful in its research work by compiling and distribut ing better ways of handling the precocious but insistent pupil. Iniury and humiliation in school squabbles usually start in the class room because of the lack of tact and training of the teacher. Much of this can be avoided, thus adding to the peace, decorum and happiness of the community.

A, Washington Current : Comment : A book called “Who’s Who” purports to direct attention to the assembled company of the the j great, but gives no hint as to person that might be called first in the kingdom. A young lady in Washington may not be in a position to point a finger directly at the chief “Who," but she has begun a process of elimination. It is her view that the unseen radio audience was so incensed at Mr. Hoover that he had no chance of ic-elcction. The trouble started when Ed. Winn, a popular comedian giving weekly broadcasts, was with drawn recently from the air, to make room for a speech by the President. A Jersey police officer donned female garb, waited for a hold up man, and filled him full of perforations. Notwithstanding the bad repute in which hiding behind a woman’s skirts is held the practice does not merit un qualified condemnation. On Tuesday, November first, the new rules for contract bridge went into effect. All is now well and what happened on the next Tuesday becomes of secondary consequence. The accidental dropping of two lines of type from the advertising change, column of an ex produced the following startling announcement: “Stray ed.

In a South American republic, one aspirant for rule is reported as running jjehind another. The picture of two with candidates on the jump, one opponent blood in his eye, and his attempting to get away with a whole skin, is familiar in connection with Latin American elections. Russia has converted the cathedral of St. Isaac into a theatre where atheistic plays are presented. The religious views of each man are his own affair, but no good can come of J?

His dying words wore: “O Galilean, thou' hast conquered.” Roman history will repeat itself . in Soviet Russia, IN A GARDEN We looked the roses over, Among the blosoming And yet we could discover Each bloom a lovely thing, That some were frail and tender And some were bruised and lame; That true perfection’s splendor Blit very seldom came.

Let This Be a Warning A man walked reluctantly in to a haberdasher’s shop in Milwaukee. “I just lost a bet,” he said., “and I want to get a soft hall.” The-salesman handed a hat to the prospective purchaser With the ryftark: “This is the softest hat we have.” . , .
