Yesterday (Thursday) was thanks¬
giving day, and that for which we
feel most thankful is that the Lord
has prevented the Devil from mak¬
ing moral, social, religious and
other conditions worse than they
are. This world seems to be ruled
neither by the forces for Good nor
by the powers of Evil—they both
have a hand at the job—and both
are struggling for supremacy, and
it would again seem they are about
as equally matched on this eartli as
the armies at war in Europe. The
responsibility rests placidly upon
the shouklers of the inhabitants of
the earth.
Mr. E. B. Nix has purchased a

The freeze of last week damaged
some of the autos in town last
week. One unfortunate traveler
from the city of Atlanta had cross¬
ed the Blueridge mountains and
was caught “napping” at Blairs
ville. No way out other than the
bitching of four big mules to the
thing, for wc couldn’t call it an
aut when it wouldn’t run, and they
pulled it up and across the moun¬
tains, arriving in Cleveland about
9 o’clock Sunday morning. Some

Women outnumbered men at
the polls in the Cornell, N. Y.
school election. Same thing oc¬
curred at the election in Galena,
Kansas where 57 more woman than
men were voters. This disproves
the change «o often made by anti

vote if given the opportunity.

Government To Help
Georgia Hog Raisers
The modern method of solving
agricultural problems by investiga¬
ting them, not only in the labora¬
tory, but also on the farm in co¬
operation with the farmer, has
given such admirable results that it
is to be applied to the anti-hog
cholera crusade.
Congress has appropriated a half
million dollars to carry on the work
and experiments will be made in
all parts of the Unite*! States. The
aim will be not only to exterminate
the disease in the test sections, but
also to discover the most practical,
efficient and economical methods
for continuing the work through
out the country.
The investigation will fill a long
felt want in Georgia, as the hog
death rate in this State from chol¬
era is 90 per 1000 head' and hog
raisers are losing an average of
180,000 hogs, valned at $1,476,1300
from this disease annually.

Ia there anything more exciting than
to have & gushing girl describe a mov¬

Sometimes a man has to prevaricate
to his wife because he knows she will
not believe the truth.
Maybe one reason why some men
do not marry is that they love, to
hear themselves talk.
Give 'em time enough and theee eu¬
genic candidates will take a chance at
any old kind of marriage.
The most surprising thing about
foolish talk ia the large number of
men who can get away with it
Is there not danger that teaching
the boys to aew will result in„ an
overproduction of dressmakers?
It takes a boy only about a year to
learn to talk, but it takes him the
rest of his life to learn not to.

A London specialist announces that
he has discovered a remedy for love¬

The proposition to tax bachelors to

the widows out of revenge.
