In another column of this issue
you will find a letter to the editor
from our beloved, courageous and
hard-working representative at
congress, Ilori. Thos. M, Hell,
Congressman Bellpoints out the
need why women should register,
and if needs be, vote.
The recent constitutional amend¬
ment permits the negro women to
vote and it is feated by our repre¬
sentative that unless the women of
Georgia and the South register,
that at the last moment, the negro
women will qualify and take ad¬
vantage of this amendment, as they
have done in Virginia.
If you desire to maintain White
Supremacy in the South you now
must prove it by registering. You
are not compelled to vote, but to
our numble opinion, you. should!
Women have a much better regard
for higher and nobler things of
life than men, and they should be
peeinitted to assist, at least by vot¬
ing, to shape the destiny of the
governing powers of our munici¬
pal, county state and nation.
Do you women of onr dear old
White county desire the principals
anp customns that we have so long
enjoyed suffer bitter humiliation
and shame? No, none of you do,
but you must act to preserve these
yrinciples and customs.
Whether you desire to take an
active part in politics or not you
should register and be ready if your
help is needed. You can register
with the tax colleotor, Ms. W.Hul¬
sey, for county, state snd national
pofitics, and with jhe clerk of the
town, Thos, F. Underwood, for
municipal.
Don’t fail to segister, good
women of White county.
The laws of Georgia specifically
ways that all children between
eight and fourteen years of age
who have not completed the
seventh grade, shall enter at the
opening of the school and con
tinue in school for at least six
months in each year. It is the duty
of the Board of Education to en¬
force the law, in default of their
duty, the law provides that the
public school fund be withheld
from the county.
In many counties of North Geor
gia there is a movement under way
to plant a young orchard on every
farm. This movement should be
inaugurated in White county,
don’t you think? Your county
agent will be glad to help you in
selecting a good variety and help
to instruct yon in protecting the
young orchard from the numerous
insect and diseases.
IIow many White county far¬
mers have had their soil examined?
Send a sample of the soil the Geor¬

that the Board have each child ex¬

U. S. pay her highest tribute, but
all the leading powers of the world
placed their highest military honors
on the bier.

The U. S. Department of Com¬

of raw sugar entering the United
States in Septembes J921 was 2.92
cents per pound against 15 cents

to te£ Dept, of Commerce, is the
lowest since January 1915. The
outturn of sugar under the Ameri¬
can flag in the crop year 1923-22 is
971,000 tons, of the world I5,-

mately 12of the world’s out¬

November has two national holi¬
days—Armistice Day and Thanks¬
giving Day. November ix was
celebrated not only in our own
dear land, America, but by all the
countries which were allies in the
world war. It was on November
n, 1918, at xi o’clock, A. *M.,
that hostilities ceased on the battle
front between Germany and tlie
allies.
Now, that we have celebrated
that day, we should none the less
be thankful that the Omnipotent
One has been good to us through
this financial depression by giving
a bounteous harvest of all crops.
White county and the other moun¬
tain counties of North Georgia
should indeed be thankful in this
rerpect.
Are we?
When the Pilgrims landed in
this country they had many more,
obstacles to contend with than we
have—countless more—yet they
agreed that God had been good
and merciful unto them by giving
them good crops and good health.
Isn’t that something to be thank
ful for? When we commemorate
that day it proves that we are
thankful and appreciate that God
has spared our lives to that good
day.
We frequently hear remarks of
what hard times we have to endure
and we don’t doubt but that it is
true.But what do you think thePil
grims i.ttered on that day?
Wouldn’t it be a wonderful change
if all of the one hundred and ten
million persons in the United,States
would offer up their devotion to
God on that day ?
These two holidays should be
held very sacred and dear to every
American.
The business men of Cleveland,
for the first time that we know,
have agreed that they will close
their places of business on Thanks¬
giving Day, Nov. 24th.
VVe regret that some of our
readers thought we were feferring in
our recent issue responsible, reliable
and thoughtful corespon¬
dent, Mr. D. th. Payne,
who writes Leaf Leaflets.
We stated plainly that these news
items were headed Leaf Leaflets
News, this, we thought, would
specifficnxly show that it was not
our correspondent who writes Leaf
Leaflets, but was some other person
Our Leaf Leaflets correspondent
has always been held in very high
regards by The Courier, as he
thinks before he writes, and it is
rather surprising to us to hear that
some of our readers thought that
we were referring to Mr. Payne.
We have no better correspondent
in the county than Mr. Payne. We
had no news items that week from
Leaf Leaflets. We have never had
to withhold a single item that this
Leaf Leaflet correspondent wrote.
We want to give plenty- of notice
that The Courier will not get out
a paper during Christmas week—
December 30. If you have
