“OUR STATE BIRD”
There has not been anybody
Milledgeville during the past we
who has not been a little thankful at
least for paved sidewalks and streets.
In every heart there is a joy that
beat i with fervor when the first
note of the Robin is heard in spring.
All human beings marvel at tht
melody of the songs which are pro
duced by our feathered friends, yet
there are few people who delve into
the study of bird life and the songs
and habits of the woodland
Now, however, there is an interest
being manifest throughout the state
for a state bird. Georgia has her
,tate flag, her state flower, her state
song, why shouldn't she have her
state bird? Why shouldn't the peo
ple of our state be willing to give
just a small amount of their
the feathered hosts who make for
us a better place in which
Throughout the state nominations

The city of Milledgeville has
vested a large amount of money for
a street sweeper. The citizens should
co-operate in keeping the streets
clean.
The indications are that Hoover,
who is the tatting Republican Candi
date, will not go to the Convention
with enough votes to nominate him.
If he tdtould noi it- cart be safely pre
dicted that Resident Ccolidge will
be the nominee. If - s;
The people of the Southland .are
today paying tribute to the memory
of the men who wore the ?rey in
the war between the States. No
braver soldiers ever went into battle
than the those who left their homes
and firesides nnd enlisted under the
Confederate flag. Their deeds of
heroism, will ever live and their
memories will be always cherbkel by
the people.
The public schools of Baldwin
County will clone Friday of next
week, May 4th. The fact that Bald
win County has one of the best school
systems of the State-cannot be de
nied. County School Superintendent
P. N. Bivins haa builded a system
that give* the children of Baldwin
County an opportunity to secure a
high achool education. He has re
ceived the cp-gperation of the Board
of Education In his efforts.
Just for your remembrance of the
men of our towro Did you know that
in the coune of two years our town
furnished five state presidents
—men who acted in this high ca
pacity in their special line of busi-
nea, as follows: Dr. M. M. Parks,
President of the Education Associa
tion; Dr. E. A. Tigner, President of
the Dental Aaaociation; Mr. Miller S.

HYMAN ANNOUNCES FOR STATE
SENATE
(Sandersville Progress)
As will be seen elsewhere Hon.
E. Hyman makes hia formal an
nouncement for Senator from the
Twentieth Senatorial District, com
posed of Washington, Baldwin and
Hancock counties, it being the time
for Washington county to name the
Senator under the rotation system
which haa been observed for many
year* Mr. Ilyman has served three
terms in the lower branch of the
legislature and hia experience
legislative work will be of valuable
assistance in the senate. Washing
ton county does not contain a i
popular citiien and it is quite like
ly that he will be elected without op
position, aa our people are confident
that he will discharge his legislative
duties in an entirely satisfactory
manner, and that he deserves this
promotion in the political affairs of
the state.
thrasher, the red headed woodpecker,
and the purple martin. An interest
ing group for bird lovers of Georgia
to study are these three, yet the vir
tues of the brown thrasher stand far
superior to the other two.
True it is that the red headed
woodpecker is a lovely bird drelied
in his handsome coat of gorgeou:
oring, but it is the bird's ability
to sing as well as looks that mu
considered. No one enjoys the per-
sor who is beautiful but dumb. Tho.***
who know the woodpecker know that
this time worn saying is truly ap
plicable. His every move is a
tinual peck on hte trunk of a
or a harsh squawk as he flies
head.
Then comes the second candidate^
the purple martin, and this might be
«aid for the bird which t®nu* of the
bird lovers seem to want to term
as “the social bird." Does the purple
martin stay here the year around?
If he does what does he contribute
to the song life of the community?
He hasn't a sweet song and the
oodpecker far surpasses him in
beauty.
But when the third candidate is
mentioned, the brown thrasher the
hearts of bird lovers swell with pride.
It is he who wears the glorious
'elvety coat of rich brown with a soft
grey vest tinged with arrow heads
of brown. It is he who makes the
roadside cheerful and the trailing
a joy forever. He knows
not only his own song but
numerous scores that bunt from the
throats of his other friend* These
he poun forth in • profuse strain so
clear and melodious that that the
very soul of the listner seems to feel
the presence of the divine.
As lovers of music and beauty,
which Miall Georgia pepole select?
The vote of the school children in
Baldwin county will determine to a
great extent the final selection. As a
true citizen of Georgia. What are
you going to do?

WHY BUY AT HOME
The Columbue Ledger points to
the discussion of a Texas paper on
the great question, “Why should you
buy at home?”
The Ledger notes that records at
the local post office and express
quarters will show that quite a few
Columbus people still buy from mail
order houses in other citiea.
Following are the -arguments:
“Because in buying at borne you
are building -up your home town
rather than its competitors, and when
your home town grows your proper
ty values increase.
“Because M you build up your
home stores they will be enabled and
justified in carrying larger and more
varied stocks^of goods so you may.
have the variety to choae frbm that
those who tapde away froja. home
give as their' excuse for trading in
the city. By trading away from home
yoa tear dowa rather than build up
» car at well yoa will have ta
believe. Rik while yaa pay plea.
