THE DOUGLAS ENTERPRISE wants to see more cattle sold on the block and less on the rails. It puts it this way. The A. B. & A. pays annually to owners of stock along its line killed on the track an average of $36,000. If the owner would take care of his stock, bring it to maturity, sell it to a favorable market,, it would bring a total of between $70,000 and $75,000. The same apples to other railroads in Georgia and Alabama. THE JACK3QN PROGRESS-AR GUS continues optimistic. Hear Ed itor J. Doyle Jones: Georgia’s crop values this year ex ceed by a substantial sum the total of last year. While a fewer number of bales of cotton wll be produced, the higher prices will more than make up the difference.. Corn, to bacco, peaches, wheat, oats, hay, po tatoes, these afid other crops are helping to put Georgia on top. Cot ton is no Longer the only money crop. THE BRUNSWICK NEWS thinks it is best to put local money in local enterprises. It says: There is a gjowing realization in Brunswick and ether Georgia towns that although the coming of outside capita! to develop industries on a large scale is a most desirable thing, the surest and quickest way to devel op the ndustries of a city is to do it with local capital. A half dozen small locally owned factories would be worth more to Brunswick than one big established here by Eastern or Northern capitalists. TOO THIN. American girls have pretty faces but they are too frail. They eat too much candy. They slink along in sleazy gowns. They would be heal thier and happier if they had more muscle and there would be fewer di •> otces. . That is the criticism of the Danish physical culture expert, Sir Nels Bukh, now in this country with a group of perfect specimens from Denmark. He and his gymnasium class were received by President Coolidge in Washington. The twenty-eight specimens—four teen young men and fourteen young women—who are traveling about this country in exhibition prove his theories. Sir Nels is head df a col lege at Ollerup, a few miles from Co penhagen, Denmark. “American girls don’t develon their bodies, their legs, their arms,” the massive Dane said. “Your women seek litheness from the present style trend I see hers, but it isn’t lithe ness I s,ee at all. It’s simple frailty; litheness means sinew, and sinew is what is lacking in American wom- Sir Neils said he could take the slouching girls he has seen in the streets of the American cities and make them into perfect physical specimens in three months by vigo rous gymnastic exercises. GOOD ROADS. Every man, woman, and child in the Uinted States has personal in terest in good roads. The farmer and the motorist have the most immediate and practical in terest, but the interest of others is no less vital that it expresses an in drect relaton. The farmer wants good roads be cause he can make more money with good roads than wiht poor roads. If the farmer can make more money, he spends more, which means greater prosperity for the whole nation. And if he can do with less money, good roads enable him to sell, his products for less and still make as much ;.s at present; that means lower prices for food. Everyone who Ives m a rural or suburban location is interested in good roads, because they decease the rural or suburban home from the city. Every rural or suburban dweller needs to get to the city some time; the less the time distanc • the less it costs. Every one who lives in a city wants at times to get into the coun try. The good road is the means. If these are no good roads, there is a sharp line drawn between city and country, which makes for the good of neither. The mere good roads the more travel. The more travel, the more understanding of people by their neighbors, and the less possible is misunderstanding, strife, rivalry, or political discord. Roads are a part of the foundation of Americanism. Let us all work to make that foundaton broad :id long and lasting. WHY HE SUPPORTS McADOO. Mr. George F. Milton, editor of the Chattanooga News, calls atten tion to the fact that the Hon. Wil liam G. McAdoo is going to make an address in Chicago on November 15 and will then outline his views. Mr. Milton says “it is practcally certain that Hon. William G. McAdoo will be a candidate for the nomination for President in the next Democrat ic National Convention.” Mr. McAdoo was born in Georgia and reared and educated in Tenne see, practiced hj3 profession as a lawyer and engaged in banking in Tennessee before gong to New 7ork. Later ho returned and built a street railway in Knoxville. He ha 3 many friends over the state who have fol lowed his career with enthusiasm. It is pretty generally conceded that he contributed as much to the success ful prosecuton of the war as any other member of the American gov ernment. He has the jderlism of Woodrow Wilson and at the same time ha.s had practical experience that is very valuable. He dug .the Hudson tunnels in New York when others failed. He went directly to the American people to sell bonds during the war and was successful beyond what had been dreamed possible. As railway direct or he put 4,000,000 boys in camps and supplied 2,000,000 overseas. McAdoo is a Tennesean, has dohe things, stands for the ilson polcies, is fair to labor, business and. the farmers, anr can put things over. If the wet and dry isue enters nto it, as is likely, his views arc in line with what Tcr.nescans believe in. He sup ported both the Eighteenth and Nineteenth amendments. McAdco is the favorite candidate in the Far West and Middle West. He has mujeh strength in other sections. The South united successfully with the West in 1912 —why not now? — Savannah Press. IS GERMANY BANKRUPT? From reports of conditions exist ing in Germany it is unbeieveable that that country is in sue’.} a de plorable financial condition as the Germans would have the rest of the world believe, bile the price • of marks have gone down to a pittance, yet that country is makng largo pur chases of cotton and copper from America besides food stuff and oth er raw materials. In August over a half million bales of cotton was shipped from this country and 108,- 000,000 pounds of copper. The in dustries in that country are all tbriv r.g and turning out unusualy large imounts of products which are being sold to other nations, principally America, and with all that, the C( un try is crynig poverty and unable to pay France that whch she owes. The German people are the most re sourceful of all nations; they have the most fertile agricultural coun try in the world and their recovery from the losses brought on by the world war should not be of long du ration. There is something wrong some where in the poverty cry and we do lot believe that there is much ex cuse for the claims which are being broadcasted by the German govern ment. It is true that Germany has assessed a heavy tax on its citizen ship, but it is also a question as to whether this increased taxation on it citizens is being collected. Before we go too far n our sympa thies, brought on by hte appeal of these people of being poverty strick en, let us investigate and analyze the true condition which they are facing and weigh every angle of the claim before we open our hearts and pocketbooks and aid an unde serving cause. THE ROME TRIBUNE-HERALD has very high regard' for women’s ability to do things at a convention. It says: Those of us who attended the Fed eration of Women’s Clubs’ conven tion last week feel lost now that the dear ladies have -departed. They crammed more proceedings into three days than ever any bunch of men could have done. If Lloyd George thinks he has been given a dose of the American “pace that kills” on his tour of this country, it is well that he did not attend the \ Georgia women’s convention in ' -mo. It would have sent home a broken human machine. Nobody but women could have stood the pace that was set by the convention. Finicky Man.

Howard authorizes the publication of the following statement: The news story carried in the At lanta Constitution and the Atlanta Journal in recent issues to the ef fect that it was “generally under stood” I would be a candidate to succeed Chief Justide Russell of the Supreme Court who was expected to retire to make the race for congress was misleading as far as I am con cerned. I have* heard Judge Russell’s name mentioned as a probable can didate for United States senator, but I have never thought of becom ing a candidate for supremo Court Justice whether he reires or not. I have stated to some of my friends the members of the bbar and others that, at the proper time, I would make formal an nouncement of my candidacy in the primary next summer to succeed myself as Judge of the Atlanta Circuit, and I am sure my friends expect that. G. H. HOWARD. MEDLOCK-LIVELY. Norcross, in hs simplicity was the wedding of Miss Annye Lively, daughter of Sirs. Ltt ella Lively, of Norcross, and Mr. Carroll Medlock, of Winter Garden, Fla. ' Before the ceremony Mrs. E. D. Ewing sang “I Love You Truly,”’ and “All For You,” accompanied by Miss Manhood is Measured by the Ose Made of Its Power I Nearing the Presidential Starting Post With twenty states operating Presidential primaries it will not be long—as a fact not more than rix months —before the national candidates will become known and the dark horses smoked into the paddock. The first primary is that of New Hampshire which will be held March 11. North Dakota follows a week later and then the whole system gets into rapid operatio-.i. Here is a list of the states having presidential primary laws with the dates for the primary elections of all parties. California, Tuesday, May 6. Florida, Tuesday, June 3. Georgia, to be fixed by state committees. Illinois, Tuesday, April 8. Indiana, Tuesday, May 6. Maryland, Monday, May 5. Massachusetts, April 29. Michigan, Monday, April 7. Montana, Tuesday, May 27. Nebraska, Tuesday, April 15. In Florida the Republican party is eliminated, the law of the state not applying to a party not polling 35 per cent of th« total vote in the preceding general election. Republicans of Florida, therefore, will hold a convention to pick candidates. The spread of the primary system gives cause for much un easiness among a number of state bosses who for years have dom inated the political situation. By combinations, dickers, con vention unit rules and other specious practices they have turned the wish of the* people into a voice so still and small that it is not heard even in a whisper. The - threatened ending of such power naturally is not too pleasing. In brief the presidential primary takes the crooked boss out of authority and restores the right of franchise to the people. If the primary system expands to any appreciable extent the country newspapers alone, voicing the wish of more than 60,000,000 of the American peo ple will render it impossible to crush popular,demand in the machinery of party chicanery when it happens to exist. An examination of the statistics of juvenile delinquency In the country towns shows the animal is very scarce. Practically every oue of our girls grows to sweet womanhood and the boys Into splendid men. despite all the terribly shocking influences we are told continuously surround the young on every hand. Seemingly the influences don't influence. When the editor has a real opinion and dares express it he is sen sational. When he has no idea or fail? to express any he is stupid and dull.

Folks leave the cities to live in the country and immediately put up a fight to get city couveuleuces. THE NEWS-HERALD, LawreneerliU, Georg!* THE FROST IS ON THE PUMPKIN Minnie Alma Medlock.

POLITICAL DISHONESTY Political dishonesty breeds dishon esty of every kind. A state of mind which will intend one fraud will, upon occasion, intend a thousand He who upon one emergency will lie, will be supplied with emer gencies in order that he may con tinue to lie. He who will perjure himself to save a friend, will do it in a desperate juncture to save himself. He who is unjust in the least is un just also In much. Temptations to political- dishon esty are easily accepted. The po litical dishonesty which destroys one’s character unfits him for hon est positions In every other depart ment of life. That which is true of leaders in politics is true of subor dinates. Political dishonesty in voters runs into general dishonesty as the rot ten speck taints the whole apple Men who play the political game dis honestly will play the same kind of a game in their private affairs. The tricks and traps in politics, when once learned by a young man. are by him used in business and society, and in every other walk in life. The man who lies to you in poli ties will lie to you iu trade, in busi ness and in social intercourse. The uian who slanders in polities will slander in personal affairs. The man who claims to he a Christian and at the same time is a dishonest politician, may be branded us one of the dirtiest, most con temptible and pitiful aspects to lie found wearing the name Christian. It is the duty of every person to he a politician in the highest and truest sense of that term.* What is politiesV It is the science of gov ernment. and every UIU-v should master that science. /- • ■/<.: , . v . \ t ' t % ' .

When ever one of these bands entered a vilage they immediately entered the j first store they came to and. asked j the proprietor, “\yho are you f° r — i Carranza or Huerta?” It was their up to him to db some j quick guessngg If he shouted “Viva Huerta!” and: tfe e band happened to be Carranzistas, they cleaned out the store and beat up the prrprietor. One Chinaman who kept a Score in a little village’ nr the State of Sonora was raided by a band of HueTt’.stas. He was a poor guesser, for when they asked him who he was for he shouted “Vivrt Carranza!” and im mediately suffered the penalty. Leaving him half dead, they next en tered the only other store in the vil lage, kept by a man called Finkel stein. Mr. Finkelstein had heard his neighbor shout “Viva Carranza, and had witnessed the consequence. When the leader of the band, there fore, asked him who he was for, he at once shouted “Viva Huerta!” and escaped scot free. The following week another band of marauders entered the village and once more the Chinaman’s store was visited. This time the raiders were Cafranzistas and after the Chinaman had shouted “Viva Huerta!” there was absolutely nothing left of his store and very little of the China man himself.
