Union County Lad shot Father
By Apppea! Irom Mother.
(From the Tri-County Advertiser,)
InUnion county, one of tlie pros¬
perous “mountian” counties of
North Georgia whose citizens are
almost too percent Anglo- Saxon,
a ‘•successful farmer” living about
two miles from the county, seat,
according to the Constitution’s
Biairsville correspondent, “while
under the influence of whiskey” the
other day. assaulted his wife and
was giving her a pounding,” when
in her distress,” the woman ap¬
pealed-to her 15-year-old son to
help her.
The boy naturally ran to his
mother’s rescue; seized a pistol
and shot his father through the
head, inflicting a wound, accord¬
ing to the press report, that phy¬
sicians said probably would prove
fatal.
Our correspondent goes on to
say that “the boy made no attempt
to escape, and it is not thought
any effort will be made to prosecute
him;” but regardless of what the
law does or does not do to him,
this boy is bound., to his last day,
to suffer from the effects of this
awful tragedy, for such a horrible
thing it is for any man to have the
blood of another human being—es¬
pecially that of a parent—upon his
hands!
And whiskey at the bottom ot it
all! ,
Our Biairsville representative
writes that a “lodti public senti¬
ment in Unioh county is consider¬
ably araMsed over this and other
recant tragedies;” and well it
may be. Certainly the lives and
charay.|er of the good, honest peo¬
ple of Union county are by far too
precious to t.irow away as sacrifice
to moonshine whiskey !
He goes on to say that “our jail
is now full to the limit of parties
charged with mnrder ;” and that
condition may be expected to con¬
tinue so long as Union county’s
mountains are infested -vvit moon¬
shiners and comtaminated by whis¬
ky stills!—Atlanta Constitution.
Let All Christians Pray.
If there ever was a time when the
people needed to pray with all their
soul, it is today. Never since the
advent of history Iiub the Christian
people of the earth faced a^ more
alarming tiinr than they are today.
The Bible is being fulfilled as fast
as the days go by. We have for¬
gotten the Lord arid He is sending
the things He promised to send us
if we disobeyed Him. We have
failed; we have turned aside out of
the way like sheep; we have all
gone astray. Some are seeking
money ; some fine clothes ; some a
big name; some land; others rail¬
roads, automobiles and airships.
Almost all are worshipping aarthly
things and despise the true God.
The flu is an epidemic ; it is one of
the disaases the Lord promised to
send us if we did not serve Him.
We got rich ; we had need of noth¬
ing. The churches became luke
warm, our worship a formality.
The holy spirit lias been driven out
of the churches. The old time re¬
ligion has been abandoned and a
nrw kind of preaching suits us best
—something funny, lively, animat¬
ing, something that will make us
laugh. Well, go on through, luke
warm souls; you can laugh your
souls into hell before you think
about it. God says “I will rpew
you out of my mouth ; never, no
never, but will say depart ye cursed
into everlasting death.” Tee sev¬
enth angel will pour out the last
plague into the air. It may he
pouring it out now, causing disease
and pestilence on this earth. All
we have to look for is Christ to
come with power and glory, God
speed the day, Bell.

PICNIC PARTY IN HONOR
OF MISS ANNIE HENLEY
Mr, and Mrs, O. C. Bell gave a
picnic in honor of Miss Annie
Henley, who was the guest of Mrs.
Florence Henderson, Tuesday,
The party was chaperoned by
Mr. and Mrs. O. C. Bell in a bug¬
gy, and followed by two automo¬
biles loaded to capacity with a jolly
good bunch of young people and
good things to eat. When I say
good tilings to eat 1 certaialy am
not exaggerating; there was plenty
for fifty hungry people, afld from
the way* this bunch participated
the writer believes they were all
very hungry.
We centered on one of the most
magnificent picnic spots to be foumi
anywhere! absolutely jt cannot be
beat : and we are a bit selfish in
telling you this lovely location, bij
to keep you from worrying and n
to keep you in suspense, we mig
as well not try to keep it conceals
It is just below the bridge on T
natee river, in a beautiful ma
grove which nature must have mj
for a picnic site. A cold sp
gushes out of the hillside, affoftl
plenty of water to help make ti.»
spot more attractive.
Shortly after we arrived at t
roman, ic‘sprit, the party begat
get the fishing tackle ready, tbenij
to the river. We will not take
space to say how many fish V?
caught, The most important pa
of this occasion was the dinner, fi
there were bushels of good things
to eat, and not all fish, placed on
an open-air table which someone
else had placed there, where we
relished this choice food as
we were going to fast.
After these delicious eats, some
of this happy party returned to
the river bank to catch fish and
some to absent their minds of the
»
business world as the water slowly
moved along its course, rippling
under the ivy beneath a dull sky,
withe voices of invisible birds in
the distance and the fish darting
playfully in the deep pool to pacify
sonje inspiration arid desire that
might he made manifest in the near
future.
This party consisted of Mr. and
Mrs.O.C. Bell, Mrs. Maude Kytle,
Mrs. Florence Henderson,'Misses
Henfey, Elizabeth Jarrard, Eliza
Kenimer rod Ethel Craven, Messrs
Louis Jarrard, Parks Bell and Jim
Davidson.
“1 have noticed,” said Abraham
Lincoln, “that a man is usually
abont as happy as he has made up
his mind to be.” All in this party
made up their minds to be happy
and have a good time. I.ite is just
what we make It.
'Flie occasion will be remembered
as one of the most enjoyable of our
life.

X Jfim. Jflu allt. TO THE PUBLIC *1
Mayor James L. Key Makes Misstatements In His Message
to the City Council and the Public
THIS LETTER From the Officials of the Company
Sets Forth the TRUTH
«*' * i »,
t lie l’ublic :
The message of James Lee Key to
the city council attacking the Georgia Railway
and Power Company convicts him ol being :
1. A slanderer.
2. An ignoramus.
3. A demagogue.
First, its illustrating that he is a slanderer,
3 and he states Electric that Company the stock “does of the not Georgia represent Railway one
single dollar invested in the properties of the
company.’ This statement is absolutely false
and he knew it was false, and lie made it ma¬
liciously, knowing that, whether true or false, it
has nothing to with fixing rates for our service.
Second, as illustrating that he ignorantly
pretends to knowledge, he states that our costs'
have not increased because the water in the riv¬
ers ‘does not cost any more than it did before the
war.’ The water in the Chattahoochee does not
cost any more, either, but the city waterworks
increased the rates charged for the same water in
the faucets. Nlte fish in the sea cost no more,
but what about the fish on the table." Neither

the the forest, nor the rubber
tree, nor the berries en the briar, nor the coal in
tlie ground, nor the oil in the earth, nor the ofC*
in the hill, nor the wool on the sheep, nor the
sweat on the brow, cost any more, but how about
the increased prices of the flooring in the house,
the paper in the printing shop and the tires on
the car and jam in the pantry and fire in the
grate and gasoline in the tank and rails on the
track, and coats on the back and Jabor in the
shop ?
Third, that he is a demagogue needs no
proof at all. Atlanta, as well as Russia, is af¬
flicted with its Lee iTrotZ) Key. The sim¬
ilarity of their names is even less striking than
the similarity of their countenances, their utter¬
ances, their acts and their purposes.
Why, the very message under discussion of
the Atlanta disciple of the Russian Bolshevist
contains a reaewal of his oft-repeated efforts to
stir up discontent among our workmen, and con¬
cludes with a threat of state Socialism and con¬
fiscation of property.
