LOOKS YOU SQUARE IN
THE FACE.
When the wind blows over keep
an eye on Tom Bell, it he throws
his hat in the congressional ring
again he will be one of the winning
gladiators. Torn is the kind of
politician who looks you square in
the face and tells you where lie
stands. And that stand has always
proven satisfactory to the voters.
—Winder News, June 19, 1920.
WHY DID HE GOV
The recalling of “Ambassador ”
Martens by the Soviet government
of Russia came quite conveniently
for Tom Hardwick, who is leading
a Smith-Watson party on its lour
of the west, which wiil incidentally
take in California.
Returning to the protecting wing
of Lenine, Bud Martens will not
have need of the shield of the
Georgia politician any longer. One
is inclined to wonder if the Bolshe¬
vik gentleman settled his lawyer
bills before he left. He sailed be¬
fore the next Ark was scheduled to
leave. We are certain that he
would have been saved passage
money had he waited.
Did Mr. Lenine’s patience with
Mr. Hardwick finally become ex¬
hausted, like that of-the people of
Georgia? And did Air. Martens
have a fond farewell for the San
dersville thunperstorm ere he em¬
barked for the economic wasteland
of Europe?—Macon Telegraph.

A Royal Cord Record.
Three years on United States
Royal Cord tires is a record report¬
ed by Frank McComb of Stafford,
Kansas.
“During this time, “says Mr.
McComb, “1 have made two trips
to Colorado Springs, going up
Pike’s Peak and taking in all the
mountain drives around there and
Denver. I then went to Cheyenne
and back over the Lincoln High¬
way through Nebraska. Last fall
I drove to San Francisca, going
out by way of the Santa Fe trail,
and returning over the Borderland
trail. The road as a whole was
very rough and rock.”
Favorite Bible Verses Selected by

A Thought For the Week.
We, here in America hold in our
hands the hope of the world, the
fate of the coming years,and shame
and disgrace will be ouro if in our
eyes the light of high resolve is
dimmed, if we trail in the dust the
golden hopes of men. If on this
new continent we merely build an¬
other country of great but unjustly
divided material prosperity, we
shall have done nothing; and we
shall do little if we merely set the
greed of envy against the greed of
arrogance and thereby destroy the
material well-being of all of us. To
turn this government either into a
government by a plutocracy or a
government by a mob would be to
repeat on a larger scale the lament¬
able failure of the world that is
dead.—Theodore Roosevelt.
Legislature Will Be Asked
To Aid County Fairs.
Secretary R. M. Striplin of the
Southeastern Fair Association, who
was appointed chairman of a legis¬
lative committee, at a recent meet¬
ing of fair secretaries of Georgia in
Macon, announces that his com¬
mittee hopes that with the aid of
public sentiment in seventy coun¬
ties in Georgia having fairs, the
bill which will be presented to the
members oi the next legislative ses¬
sion, will meet with ready support
The arguments presented by W.
T. Anderson of the Macon Tele¬
graph, and Joe Hillllall of Macon,
are so convincing that the commit¬
tee feels that if they are carefully
considered by the people ofGeorgia
interested in the development of
the state’s resources, there will be
an unanimous demand for extend¬
ing the same aid to the Georgia
fairs that some of the other pro¬
gressive states extend in the way
of an annual cash appropriation to
all fairs w hich are not organized
for profit.
The fairs add wealth to the com¬
munity bp encouraging better live¬
stock and better agricultural meth¬
ods, which means better homes,
roads, churches, school buildings,
and everything that comes with in¬
creased earning capacity. The
man who sells autos is just as much
interested in helping the fairs in¬
crease their efficieiency and to be
sure of a continuance, as a man
who sells agricultural machinery.
The intelligent teachers know that
a community with a fail is pro¬
gressive! and that they want the
besitAeachers there.
■The lair*have Inttmbecl Rwriazor
back hog; the long horned cow
that produced nothing but a little
blue milk ; the unprofitable chicken
and all over the south have shown
how to make from two to five ears
of corn grow where but one grew
before, to say nothing of the train
of good things which have follow¬
ed this improvement.
There are an hundred reasons in
the opinion of the committee for
state support for the fairs and not
one good one against it and they
solicit the co-operation of all who
are interested in the proper devel¬
opment ofGeorgia to do their share
to help get a bill passed by the next
legislature providing for the fairs
just the same as other educational
insttutions.

Bill. “Get jawed?” “No.”
“What did she dor” they asked.
