About Road Talk,
Editor of The Courier:
Please allow me space in your
paper to tell the good people of
Union county what 1 think of the
White ciunty man who said if the
highway did not go by Helen
from Cleveland, he had it whare
he could kill it and would do it.
Now at first, we are not goveren
«d by a king, or at least we haven’t
been. If we are going to be I
think before we figure on a high¬
way we should build a place for our
king (that, I believe, is the custom
in countries where they have a
king), and then brobably we
would be willing to tnrn the high¬
way over to the commission that
their engineers might determine
where the highway should be built.
Any one man who would try to
deceive the good people of any
county, and try to make them
think that he alone ruled and con¬
trolled White county, affairs, we
believe, his brain is too thin to be
benefitted in a lunatic asylum in the
jungles of Africa.
You know, the devil took Christ
upon an exceeding high mountain
and showd him the world and the
beauty thereof, and said he would
give Him them all if He would bow
down and worship him, and Christ
said “Get thee behind me, satan.”
That is what we say to the one man
in White county who would at¬
tempt to try to leave the impression
on anyone that he alone controlled
White county. We are living in~a
republic, county, state and national,
controlled by the majority, and all
good citizens are satisfied.
If I am not mistaken, and I am
most sure I am not, the majority of
the citizens of White county
understand that we are to turn our
money over to the highway com¬
mission and they are to say where
the road shall be built. I think
this is wise, as they have no self-
Devoted to the Agricultural, Commercial and Industrial Interests of White County
which weigh upon them during the
remainder of the year
With Firestone, Edison and Ford
thceo camping excursions have bc
como an annual event. Formerly
John Burroughs, tlio aged naturalist,
was a member, but his death last
Bpring removed bis patriarchal his fig¬
ure from the group. By asso¬
ciates he was esteemed so highly
they considered no less personago
than the president of the United
OUUTO Btates cmJM ww take —-— his place, r and
Harding accordingly was invited to
interest in the road except for the
best route for the best interest of
White aud Union counties, as Mr.
Morgan said they have orders from
headquarters to build a road from
Gainesville by the way of Cleve¬
land to Blairsville.
The Pharisee thanked God he
was not as other men. I say, with
great pleasure, that I thank God 1
am not as the man who would do a
thing even though lie could, that
would discotifit the majority. 1 am
for the best interest of White
county and its people without any
self-intetest that would injure the
majority.
It is time we were all getting to¬
gether and pnilding together. The
Bible tells us that in a multitude of
counsel there is safety.
Very truly you r s.

IN MEMORIUM
On June 10, 1921, the death
angel visited the home of Mr. and
Mrs. Rennie Lewis and took from
them their dear little son. He was
laid to rest in Mossy Creek ceme¬
tery June 11, 1921.
“Oli, his lifs was short and pleasent
As a warm and melting ray,
As a rose bloom in the morning
And evening fade away,
A precious one from us is gone
A voice we loved is still,
A place is vacant in our home
That never can be tilled.
William’s gone but not forgotten.
Ne’r will his memory fade,
Hweete thoughts shall ever linger
‘Round the grave where William’s
laid.
We loved him, oh, no tongue can tell,
How much we loved him and how well.
God loved him, too, and thought it best,
And took hi:n home with Him to rest.
We loved liun yes, we loved him,
But angels loved him more.
And they sweetly called him
To yonder shining shore.
The Golden gate was open,
The gentle voice said, “come,”
And farewell all unspoken,
He calmly entered home.
It was hard to part with William,
And oh, how sad to see him die.
Some day I hope to meet him
In the sweet bye and bye.
His Cousin.

traffic policemen rubbed their eyes
today when a minatnre automobile
sailed past all semaphores. There
wasn’t a sole in it.
It was a driveless radio auto¬
mobile from McCook Aviation
Field, controlled by radio from a
car 100 feet behind it.
The automobile is said to be the
first of its kind publicly exhibited
by the Radio Air Service.
We don’t know just how much
you doubt the authenticity of this
statement, but we presume most
readers who keep np with such
developments can see its steady ad¬
vancement. The wireless tele¬
phone,'wireless telegraphy and the
moving of small motors are some of
its accomplishments, but one of the
latest is the monster battleship Iowa
is moved by radio bower. Would
you predict that in a faw years the
clumbsy gasoline motor will be
obsolete and out of date.
ATTENTION!
The patrons of Cleveland High
School are earnestly requested to

Mr. Editor please allow me to
rectify a mistake which was made
in my report to The Cleveland
Courier in the issue of Aug. I9,
concerning a car that had been run
by Mr. Julius Harkins and accom¬
panied by Mr. Marvin Satterfield,
which run off a bridge into the
creek. Of course I didn’t know
that they lost control of the car, or
that some ot its mechanism become
loose or something, when I said
Marvin run the car off the bridge,
but since then 1 learn that 1 was
misinformed as it was Mr. Julius
Harkins who was steering the car
when it run over the embankment
into the creek. This was no re
flection toward the gentlemen
whatever, for we have the utmost
regard for both of them.
