VOL. XVIII, No 19.1
An Appeal To The Wayward.
Editor Courier.
Dear Sir :
Please allow the following few
words a place in your columns, Sr
they are words which may prove
helpful to some of your readers :
We hear a great deal said about
the moral and financial condition
of our country; we hear a great
deal said about the war in Europe
and its terrible horrors: we hear
the great leaders of our govern¬
ment shamefully criticised; we
hear tho so-called leading citizens
of our county and community blaz¬
ing out about our rights andftprivi
leges being wronged. We are sorry
indeed, to’say that these calamity
howlers, or mostfof them, are very
poor judges of home government
asproven by their way of living
and^doing. They have their
names entered on the church books
of our various churches and we see
that their own home government
ia in need of repairs. When we
gee tire young men—and some ol
th« youngjladies—riding about at
high apeed going to night plays,
and upon the Sabbath visiting Sab¬
bath resorts at some country stores
where soft drink stands are kepi
open, and knowing their names to
be enrolled on the church registers,
makes ua feet like our home govern¬
ment needs overhauling' to some
extent. What do we find that is
uplifting and’encoutaging at our
campmeetings and protracted
meetings when we find that more
true bills are found for t he courts
than true converts for the churches.
W/t are sorry to_say that there is
_
not twenty-five per, cent of our
acjult 'membership who attend
church and Sunday School reg¬
ularly,

'•been informed. The next
of meeting is Mossy Creek
leb. 24th.
j'e less tip, we did not do our
. M e did not attend the meet
, but managed to get there at
close.
Cleveland gave the association a
bfack eye by ignoring them. Went
to sleep, Cleveland, is it your at¬
titude to ignore everything that is
good? Has prejudice, factionalism
and envey so distorted your nfind
that you no longer have any c : vic
pride? Is it true that these things
have rent your city asunder and
forced yotir churches, seemingly,
to stand still in t he work of Al¬
mighty God? A city as a whole
cijn so conduct itself that the look¬
er on sometimes wonders which
vvxiy is she going, backwards or
forwards?
You say that whiskey is our ruin
It is not our purpose to gainsay
anything that has been said in refer¬
ence to this great evil, for it is
deep one of our chief sins, but is
that all? Cleveland, have you ever
been guilty of pulling together?
Has there ever been a time in your
existence that you have showed a
solid front ? Have you ever backed
unanimously a single thing for
your civic uplift? Think it over.
We doubt it. What can you -ex¬
stR&JtftiittaBr? pect to do if you are not going to

Insure How Against Leacmng and Shedding
It is a wild extravagance to buy fertilizers containing mineral
ammoniates for a long growing crop like cotton and corn if there is.
the slightest possibility of a wot spring or summer. They are not
retained in the soil, so that the rains leach them out and the crop is
cheated out of its most essential element of plant food. *>
The safest and best preventive against leaching is the MORRIS
BRANDS. They are ammoniated solely and entirely with high
grade hag. packing house tankage and blood and are so guaranteed shad~ on
every As one of our customers says of them: “As for
ding, your goods prevent it; as they do (heir best work after the
nitrogen in other fertilizers has gone. ”
The difference in cost is so little, and the difference in yield so
great that the rich only can afford NOT to use them. The MORRIS
BRANDS are conceded by all who have used them to be the cheap¬
est fertilizers on the market.
You can exercise true economy only by insisting on getting them
regardless of price.
