The great apostle says : This one
thing I do; forgetting the the
things of the past I press forward,
etc. That’s a good motto. It’s
not worth while to lie down and
pine over present conditions. It
matters not whether our present
condition is due to high living,
automobiles, short skirts, or silk
stockings. We might not be able
to define just how it was done, but
we know something struck us and
run over us. The thing to do is to
get up and look not backward, but
forward.—The Commerce News.
Debt is the devil’s race horse to
disaster. You may think you can
ride him, but the harder you pull
on the bit the faster goes, until he
flings you overhead into the puddle
of bankruptcy—then the sherifi
sell# the saddle! Pay as you go,
or don’t go. A man in debt has to
work hard for money that he has
no right to, for it belongs to the
creditor. Why do all foreigners
get rich here? Because they work
hard, live on macaroni, and homi¬
ny, instead of beefsteak and lamb
chops, and save every cent. See?
Habit is momentum.
Your automobile can run a mile
on the level on the same amount of
gasoline it takes to .make a hard
start.
An express train is less expen¬
sive to operate than a local because
stopping and starting take so much
itifne and fuel.
The hard work of this world is
starting things. Once started it is
easy to keep them going.
The person who has formed no
helpful habits is wasting energy
because he is continually beginning
It is not hard to save a business,
succeed in a profession, keep peace
in the family, or be good, if you
can get habits enough backed up
behind you to push things along.
Every habit is a tremendous
labor-saving device.
Here is a list of helpful habits
©reoville Kleiser suggests. We
Have altered them a bit.
1. The habit of punctuality.
Make it a point to be at every en¬
gagement a little before the time.
Set your watch five minutes fast.
The only way to get there soon
enough. Don’t dawdle. Allow
for unavoidable delays of transpor¬
tation.
2. The habit of honesty. Just
get into the habit of telling the
.truth, no more, no less.
The habit of loyalty, ltejhct any
temptations to speak disparagingly
of anything or anybody to whom
you owe allegiance ; reject it as an
unclean thing.
4. The habit of sincerity. This
means a definite attitude of shun¬
ning pretense, affection, positig,
and making an impression, as op¬
posed to self-expression.
5. The habit of courtesy. To
courteous om;e does no good. Un¬
less you are courteous all the lime,
you’d as well not try it at all.
6. The habit of cheerfulness. For
pessimism is a pose, and gloom is
.usually a bud haabit.
7. The habit of thrift. For habit
is about all there is to thrift. But
tlie first part iu the bank, not the
last.
S. The habit of prayer. For
prayer is not going to mean much
to life unless it is like daily bread.
Praying occasionally is about like
eating once a week.
Pin this in your bat until 't ab¬
sorbed into your head,—Atlanta
Georgian.
Mr. O. C. Bell is busily engaged
at present in constructing a dwell¬
ing on his property at the Hender¬
son mill, where he will move when
-completed.
Dr. Adair is still here, and will
remain a few days longer for the
purpose of practising dentistry.
Mrs. G. E. Sutton was visiting
in Meldean Wednesday.
Mr. J. F. Carter, of Gainesville,
proprietor of the J. F. Carter
brancli store here, spent a shorr
time in our little city Saturday

and all small of ,
grain give promise
a record crop; however, wages
will be much lower on account of
the price.
Col. R. C. Ramey, of Clayton,
spent Saturday in town organizing
the Cleveland National Far m Loan
Ass.
Col. W. E. Candler was a visitor
in Cleveland last Sunday,
Mr. and Mrs. F. A. McAfee
spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs.
Alex. Davidson.
Mr. John Davidson, who has
been at the National Soldiers
Home, Va., for medical treatment
during the past month, has return¬
ed home and is recovering.
The patronage of t he cheese
factory is steadily gaining.
Cols. J. W. II. and Thou. F.
Underwood were in Carnesville
Monday on professional business.
Mrs. Frank Carroll’s many
friends will be glad to hear she is
improving steadily.
The County Commissioners dis¬
approved calling an election of
bonds for the construction of a
permanent highway through
White county as well as improving
all of the other roads. We did not
learn their reasons for doing so,
but sure'y they must have some
very strong reasons or it appears to
us they would have called the elec¬
tion after that long list of petition¬
ers asked them to do so. It is now
time to find out why they didn’t
call an election, because you (the
people) are entitled to know. The
people say they want a bond elec¬
tion, and if they want it, how can
the county commission say they do
think they (the people) need it?
