At election times nearly ewvery
one gets busy. Some of opr citi
gens were on the go lagt Thursday
while the polls were open for thee
: )ect,ion;f)fitpg:q officers. If we all

we are on election deys, no doubt
we woyld have 2 more thriving litle
city. We are proud of our newly
elected officers, now let us stand by
them, with our shoylders to the

We potige there are several hoys
and girls in Folkston who ave not
attending school. Why 15 it par
ents? ¥ou have paid yeur school
sax and noy your children are not
gettiag the begefit of it. Why do
you not put them in school and ed-
Mcate them, instead of letting them
grow up uneducated. Perhaps Some
day they will suy you are the cause
of they being without an education,
" pecause you would not put them in
school during their childhood days
and now they are grown and are liv
ing in ignorance. Forhid this by
getting thew hooks and start them
to school now, nnd in after years
you can see that you did right by
giving them an education.
o The Readers Of The He.ald.
¥You will potice by this weeks is
sue that we have made a change in]‘

two pages of home news, and had
the rest printed in Atlunta. We

The general news on the inside
of the Herald is old, aot very
msting. and was not read only
by a few subscnibers, therefore 1t is
not very valuable. In making this
ghange we hope to give you a wore
galuable paper. We wiil endeavor
to give you all the general news,
that we deem of value to all IHerald
readets, and too we expect to give
you the news of our own county, -
We trust that you all will -agree
with us that the change is a good
one, and that it will 10est with the“

that avefui? o st wild prople thiing s
but the peonie themselves seemed to
think it about the prettiest incident
they had met that day.
She was a very little girl, white
frocked, pink ribboned, brown €curled,
With her mother she left the gsubway
drain at the Grand Central station.«The,
usual confusion prevailed. T!'x);gf
elers grabbed sult cages and-b )
and exclahired, “Onh, do we change
here?” Tralnmen on the platform
shouted out directions for local and
express trafus and the puards of that
particular car adjured the passengers
frequently and vehemently to “Step
lively!” and to “Watch the step.”. Then
all of a sudden there was a lull in the
uproar. The little girl was leaving
the car, Bhe stopped nd the door, look
ed back and waved her hand. b
“Goodby, everybody,” she gaid. ;
The words curried to the far end of
ithe car. They made every one sit up.
Two or three persons called out a re
sponsive “Goodby,"” two or three said
“Pless the ehild,” end all smiled.—New
York Press.
The Sea Bcrpent,
When fourteen miles off the coast of
Brazil M., J. Nieoll, author of “Three
Voyages of a Naturalist,” observed a
gea gerpent which came within about
fifty yards of the ship. *“All that we
conld gee was a dordal fin about four
feet long sticking up about two feet
from the water. The fin was a brown
fgsh black color and much resembled a
gigantic piece of ribbon seaweced. Be
low the water we could indirectly se6
a very large Lrownish black pateh, but
could not make out the shape of the
ereature, Llvery now and then the fin
disappeared below the water. Sud
denly an eel-like neck, about six feet
leng and of the thickness of a man's
thigh, having a head shaped like that
of a turtle, appeared in front of the fin,
laghing up the water with a curious
wrigghing movement, This creature
was an example, 1 consider, of what
has bheen so often reported, for want
of a hétter name, ns the ‘great sea
serpent.’ I feel sure, however, that it
was not a reptile that we saw, but a
mammal.”’ |
Bought His Own Work. ‘
To come across a bit of one's own
work in print {s an experience not ordi
narily exasperating to an cuthor, but a
Washington writer on scientific mat
ters was recently not very agreeably
#urprised by such a development,
It appears that the writer was col
lecting material for a monograph on
electro magnetism when word came to
41im of a valuable paper on the subject
not long before published In a Berlin
Journal devoted to science. Thinking
that the paper would be of use to him
in the work In hand, he had it trans
lated. When the English version was
R T
‘the disgust of the writer to find that
the article was mething more or less
than a tierman reproduction of an ar
ticle of his own published the year be
fore In 'an English journal. And he
had paid twlce as much for the trans
lation as he had received for the ovlg
inal artlele!—Washington Star. i
A Dream Superstition.
1 heard what was to me at least a
new plece of superstition the other day,
and when 1 think of the risks I've run
all these yvears because 1 didn't know
of it my blood ruus cold. 1 met a wo
man from Vieginia in market, and the
talk falling on dreams 1 recalled a
most blood curdling nightmare 1 had
ad the night before. : \
“l must tell you what 1 dreamed
last night,” 1 said.
“Let me ask first whether it's a pleas
fnt or an unpleasant dream?”’ said the
lady from Virginia.,
“Decidedly unpleasant,”
“Then for mercy’s sake don't tell it
gaid she. ‘“Never tell a bad dream on
Saturday, for we say In Virginia:
“Friday night's dream on Saturday tcld
la sure to come true, no matter how old.™

Australian Cadets,
All children in Ausitalia arve drilled,
but the elder boys are attached to the
Australian military forees by means
es the cadet corps. Almost every large
school has {ts band of cadets, who
wear neat khaki uniforms and dve
armed with light rifles, in the use of
which they are frequently instructed.
Every year those boys have shooting
matches, aud the scores prove that
among the youngsters there are many
who have already become skilled
marksmen.-London Standard.
Giving Them Credit.
“You know," said the distinguished
sriental who manifests much curiosity,
“that the Chinese discovered the art of
printing fvom type thousands of years
ago?”
“Yes," replied the man who was
being interviewed. “And incidental-
Iy 1 don't doubt that they were the
original inventors of the interrogation
point,”~Washington Star.
