The county authorities have pur¬
chased four good mules and mach¬
inery with which to work the pub¬
lic roads. These four mules weigh
5,300 pounds, are six years old,and
cost including transportation
charges, $ 1350.00. Mr. S. YV.
Ashe has been employed to operate
the machine. It is proposed that
the cost of operation of this
machine will be met from the road
tax and automobile tax funds,
therefore this will leave in the
hands of the road-overseers the
funds collected by them from road
bunds, and this, coupled with the
labor of hands working out their
time, is presumed to keep the roads
in each district in this county in
good condition during all months
in the year, except the most severe
winter months. Whether this
method of road working will prove
to give us the roads we need will
be determined this summer, but if
the summej is reasonably dry we
see no reason why the roads may
not be kept in much better condi¬
tion than they ever have before.
Anyhow, this is a great long stride
in the right direction, and every¬
body can now convinced that the
roads this year will be in much bet¬
ter condition than last.
Governor Dorsey has refused to
call an extra session of the legisla¬
ture to consider good roads legis¬
lation for Georgia, and what shall
we expect from that body at its
regular session ?
Is it possible that the slogan “a
still on every branch” shall be
changed to ‘‘a cheese factory on
every brunch?” That would be a
case of fewer drinks and more eats.
Mr. J. H. Telford is still unable
to be out, but his host of friends
hope that ere Jong his health will
permit his being out to mix and
mingle with us.
Mr. T. L. Jackson has received
his discharge from the service and

Mr. R. D. Pruitt, of Braselten,
Ga., was in White county a few
days last week. Mr. Pruitt, holds
a good position in Braselton where
he is in charge of a flour mill.
When his friends go down there
and inquire of him they could
never find him if they inquired for
Mr. Pruitt, for since he has gone to
that little city he has acquired the
honorable title of “Uncle Bud,”
and everybody knows him by that
name and none other. Now, we
would never have thought of giv¬
ing him the title of “Uncle Bud”
up here, because we did not look
upon him as being ripe enough in
years for a title of that sort. But
we all thought a great deal of Mr.
Pruitt, and were mighty glad in¬
deed to see him once more paching
mud in White count)-. Come
again, Mr. Pruitt, in your car.

Mr. R. L. llenley came down
from Virginia Wednesday', Febua

Monday morning of this week to

Mr Henley is well remembered by
a host of friends in White county
who were glad to shake his hand,
and he no less was delighted to
meet them. Before leaving he said
he wished he could have met all
the white county he used to know.
He looks eagerly each week for
the arrival of the Courier in his
home, and does not know how he
could get along without it for it
conveys to him the news of all his
former friends and acquaintances.

THE CLEVELAND COURIER, CLEVELAND, GEORGIA.
A meeting held in the court¬
house last Saturday afternoon
under the direction of Mr. Mar
latt of the agricultural department,
was attended by a few of our most
progressive farmers. The
ment of a cheese factory near
Cleveland was discussed freely,
and many gave their hearty sup¬
port to the movement by subscrib¬
ing for stock in the company and
pledging to sell the milk from a
given number of cows. This is not
to be a money-making scheme for
the stock holders, but rather for
those who furnish milk. It looks
now as though sufficient persons
will pledge support and subscribe
stock to make the movement a
success.

Oddfellowship,
Leaf, Ga , Feb. 23, 1919.
To the readers of the Courier:
I have been asked by several
persons to write a little article on
certain things concerning Oddfel¬
lowship and loyalty to our neigh¬
bors. I am not prepared to say a
great deal about it, as I am no
writer, but I will say that none of
us live up to the Golden Rule ex
aclly—Oddfellows, church members
or whatever we may be. As a rule
people rather talk of what they
have done—or whot some one else
hasn’t done—than to do something
themselves. Now, if we would all
do more, and say less about it, we
would all get along better. We
should do what we could to help
each other, realizing at the same
time that whatsoever we do, if it
be for a good cause,we will receive
;t good reward for the same. If
we would all do what we do
through sympathp, and with sin¬
cerity of the heart and not for a
name or for the honor of the deed,
1 am sure we would get along
much better. Now, as for the Odd¬
fellows, J will say I don’t believe
there is a much belter organization
existing. The foundation of the
order is certainly good, and is sup¬
posed to make men better, while I
am obliged to say it looks almost a
failure in that purpose. While this
is not the only body that falls short
being true,it is not the order at all,
it is the people who have their
names enrolled as members, and
are not a member. There is where
the trouble lies; in other words,
to many “wolves in sheep’s cloth¬
ing.” An Oddfellow who is a true
Oddfellow—true to his obligations
—in my estimation is a man, and a
good man, Oddfellowship is noth¬
ing, and the secrets are less than
nothing; it is the principle that
makes the man. Now, we find in
Oddfellows, as well as in all other
organizations, men seeking only
the mighty dollar, caring not how
it comes just so they get it. Now
this cannot be the intention of the
order. The intention is to help one
another when help is needed.
While I am sorry to say that some
have fallen far short, for instead of
helping the widow and orphan
they are oppressing them, and get¬
ting all they can off of them.
While this is true in all organiza¬
tions let us hope people at larj.e
will reform and all try to do bet¬
ter, and my religion is—or would
be if 1 bad any—be what you pro¬
fess to be, let it be whatever it may¬
be. Woe be to scribes, pharisees
and hypocrites. Deliver me from
being a hypocrite.
Good wishes to all,
JOE BRAMBLKTT.
