DOUGLAS COUNTY SENTJSE
COMMON SENSE SUGGESTS
The road by'your farm or home—
The School to which your children go—
Would never have been built, if before building
the road and school you had been forced to con
vince a private corporation that its stockholders
would get a fat dividend on watered stock by the
building.
People must have roads and schools, 'and so
you build them.
Over 104,000 farms in Georgia are'fwithout
electricity.
r Moreover, 3,340 nnd’more" towns’Iand villages
have no electricity.
Yet in our streams are 2,155,850 horse power
of undeveloped water power, equivalent to
21,528,500 tons of coal, the labor of 25,834,200
men, unused and thrown away every year.
Light and powerfare 'as necessary as ,f schools
and roads.
"" Put the majority of these farms, villages and
towns can hone to get no light and power. The
Constitution forbids the State to supply them.
They must get rower from the corporations. But
to install the machinery and run the wires nec
essary to serve a few farms or a handful of
people in a village would not pav a profit on
fictitious values. Therefore, no corporation will
furnish them current.
But the State, if the Constitution permitted,
could develop our water powers and supply the
service at once.
You build your own roads and schools and lax
yourself to pav for them.
If your Constitution allowed, your State could
develop your water powers nod brag electric
light and power to the fanrfs. villages and towns
of Georgia and rav the rpsf from the earnings of
the plant without imposing one dollar of tax.
But the Constitution bars the way.
The Constitution is yours.
You can amend your Constitution.

It’s hard to keep rats out of a feed
..store. Tried for years. A neigh
boring store sold me some RAT-
SNAP. It worked wonders. Gathered
up dead rats every morning. i..j
more RAT-SNAP. Haven’t a rat now.
They wouldn’t eat my best grain
when I threw RAT-SNAP around.”

£T)UI04C power, stamina and service value, with an
JD even fuller measure of grace, beauty and those re
finements which add comfort to utility characterize the
distinctive Buick qualities of the new Nineteen Twenty
One Series.
The dominant idea guiding the builders of Buick cars
is ever to maintain the Buick standard—a standard of
soundness, saneness and serviceability in automobile
construction. The reputation Buick everywhere enjoys
attests the public approval of this Buick policy.
The new Buick Three Passenger Roadster, complete
in appointments, beautiful and roomy is an ideal car
for speedy transportation in all seasons. And back of
this model, is a nation-wide authorized Buick Service,
reinforcing Buick dependability.
