EDUCATORS TALK
ON POLITICS
[)r. Webb" “A Prof- White Make
Interesting Addresses to
Inirersity Women
p r . Webber spoke on “The Political
Mind — The Demagogue,” and Pro
fessor White spoke on “Politics, De
finition and Development”
An extract on Dr. Webber’s talk
ua follows:
"The demagogue is a patisan of the
partisans in his mental outlook. H«
has a one track mind with no side
tracks. He never resorst to proofs
for his attitudes, but he knows how
to appeal to the ‘crowd’ mind by
direct suggeHtion.*. His chief weap
on is prejudice. As a politician he
plays on the feelings of his hearers
using the powerful weapon of
tionalism. Instead of argument,
which is dangerous in the crowd,
use* trite sayings, slogans, and sub
tle slanders.”
Extracts of Professor White'
finitions are:
“Politics is a term which might be
considered to be about as old os man.
The primitive man by virtue of his
superior physical strength assumed a
domineering control of the household.
"Population grew, families become
hordes, hordes become tribes, tribes
took up feudalism, feudalism was suc
ceeded by monarchy, latter by the
world group. Government thus be
came necessary.
"We find that politics is the science
of the relationships of various groups
within a given society.”

OLD COINS IN YARD
Fernandiana, Fla.—This historic
town, founded by the Spaniards
nearly 300 years ago during their
gold rush to the Americas is agog
ov4r the discovery by W. H. Schreck
of a veritable mine of ancient silver
and copper coins in his back yard.
Schreck, placer-mining the prop
erty, has removed nearly half
bushel of coins from the soil. A few
days ago Wilhelmina, his four-year-
old daughter, making mud pies
in th« yard, brought to her father
coin. Later she appeared with
small can of coins. Schreck inves-
tigat* d, found a few pieces of money
himself and decided to wash the soil
for additional treasure.
The garden hose was brought into
play. A small sluice gate was erect
ed that allowed the soil to filter
through, yet stopped objects that
would not dissolve under water preas
sure. Monday and Tuesday of this
week 612 coins were reclaimed, most
of them old silver Spanish pieces,
believed to be half crowr.s ».n<! worth
about *»2 cents f'ach at the present

Three thousand will be sold to Cali

Citizens of Milledgeville will be de
lighted to know that two nour cream
stations are to be established in the
city and that the prospects of a
creamery look bright.
T. B. Dumas, Manager of The
Peoples Hardware Company, gave the
following information concerning
these matters in an interview last
Thursday. “Yes, the 'Land O' Sun
shine Creamery’ of Monticello, Fla.,
will run a sour cream station here
and the Armour Company of Dublin
is also expected to establish one here
within the next week,” lie enthusias
tically announced. “Milledgeville
fortunate in having these stations,"
he continued, but a creamery would
make wonderful success here.
“You know”, he said, "Baldwin and
the surrounding counties are better
equipped for dairying than any other
section in Georgia. The pastures arc
green practically the year around,
and farmers could, with little effort,
raise all the feed necessary for the
dairy cattle. Baldwin is a wonder
ful county for dairying.”
This last statement is affirmed by

statistics secured from « survey
recently made in the county. There
were found to be 2,345 dairy cows.
The average amount of milk given
annually per cow was found to bo
299 gallons. The value of milk pro

county amounts to 1111,610. These
figures alone show the possibilities
of the dairying industry

Maybe it seems unreasonable but
it is true that Baldwin county gets

brushing back his hair.
When asked if there were any pros
pects of a creamery being establish

plied, “Yes, a man was here a few

TOBACCO GROWERS WILL MEET
IN TIFTON
The annual tobacco conference,
held under the auspices of the Geor
gia Coastal Plain Experiment sta
tion, will take place at the Tiftcn
courthouse, Tuesday, December 18,
beginning at 10:16 A. M., and last
ing throughout the day.
The feature of the meeting will
be reports on experiments in tobacco
conducted at the station. These
meetings have been held over a
period of several years and always
draw a good attendance of those in
South Georgia intere*ed in the to
bacco crop.
The December meeting is held in
order that growers may know the re
sults of the experiments before they
plant their seed beds for the coming
crop. Another meeting is held in
June every year, when the tobacco
experiments at the station are studi
ed.

“There have been four fires in Mil
ledgeville during' the year 1928,
which have amounted to great losa,”
say* Mr. J. T. Baisden, Sr.
“The first was the home of Capt.
J. H. Ennis, on Montgomery street.
This fire resulted in a total losa and.
the value way estimated at 95,000.
They do not know how the fire start
ed .
“I don't remember just now where
the second fire was Oh, yes, it was
Benson's Bakery in the business sec
tion of the town. The damage was
estimated at 926,000.”
“Do they know how it Mtarted?”,
I asked.
“They believe it was caused from
defective wiring. The third fire
was a dwelling on Pine street, be
longing to Mr. Grover Adams. The
house and contents were de*troyed;
and the total value of the loss wan.
s.i‘d to have been over 910,000. The
origin of the fire is still a mystery.”
“The fourth fire was a restaurant
on Wayne street, run by Ed Jones.
The damage amounted to 9600. The
fire is said to have started from a
defective flue.”
Mr. Fcisden smiled and said, “Of
course there have been other alarms.
Several times the engine ha*! been
called to air cars which had caught
fire, then there have been small fires.,
bu 4 . these nre the only large fires we
have had.”
