We know thsre is one tiling a
woman knows that men can’t learn
“or some men at least,” and that is
how to churn, milk and get best
results. We were left to churn
once and was told it might get too
hot or too cold. So we began to
churn churning with one hand
fighting flies with the other we
made 3700 strokes but still no sign
of butter thinking maybe the milk
was too cold we emtied half kettle
hot water in il, then we churned
another hour, by this time we de¬
cided it was too hot, we made for
the cold water, finding none in the
tiouse, we had to make a hundred
yard dash to the spring, in the
meantime wt had forgotten that we
had left the churn uncovered and
returning from the spring we
found a half grown chicken atand
ing on the churn catching flies.and
the lid and dasher had rolled out
on the ground and the old cat was
trying her best tocleau them ap.
Any way we finished filling the
churn with cold water and wiped
the dasher and lid good with the
bib of our overalls, then we churn¬
ed some more. Still we kept look¬
ing for butter and fishing out the
wounded and dead flies, thinking
tobacco smoke would keep flies a
way we made a cigaretts of brown
paper and home made tobacco,
and was smoking, while standing
on our knees looking down in the
churn we happened to sneeze and
went our cigarette, then we had to
get our head stuck up with milk
and butter while getting the ciga¬
rette. Any way we tnude butter.
Real nice yom know.

Bttrrtft Motor Co,
Devoted to the Agricultural, Commercial and Industrial Interests of White County
High School to Open Ang. 31.
The fall term of Cleveland High
School will open August 31, with
Prof. A. T. Wilson, superinten¬
dent, in charge.
With the opening of the fall term
comes the close of vacation—a
period of rest, recreation and labor
for the students—and reassembling
of the youth of the district for the
renewal of mental training where¬
by they may become better fitted
for the various duties and responsi¬
bilities of life stretching out before
each of them for an unknown peri¬
od of years.
The better we are able to edu¬
cate ourselves, the more useful we
become as agents in the banishment
of that most dreadful of all worldly
afflictions, ignorance. The fatherer
the human family become removed
from the love of gross and material
things, the more it becomes an at¬
tractive rather than a repulsive
force, and it is only through edu¬
cation that this power be acqvired
in its most desirable form.
The young people now have edu¬
cational opportunities that the
older ones were deprived of, and
we urge upon the older to en¬
courage with all possible meant the
boys and girls of to-day—men and
women of to-morrow—to acquire
an education—the best possible ed
ucation—for eveu the best but de¬
velops the brain for the accomplish¬
ments of greater and nobler tasks
than we of to-day can accomplish.
The following teachers have been
carefully selected from amongst the
applicants and we are confident
that in them we have an excellent
faculty, thoroughly determined to
do its best for the advancement of
the pupils during the ensuing year:
Miss Ruth Ghtsure, Commerce,
English and History-High School.
Miss Lillian Head, Clermont,
sixth and seventh grades.
Miss Bertha Wiggins, Cornelia,
fourth and fifth grades.
Miss Vera Keith, Clermont,
second and third grades.
Miss Gladys Nelms, Commerce,
first and primary grades.
Miss Miriam Harrison, domestic
science and home economics.
Music teacher to be supplied.
Let no patron even place a straw
in the way of the progress of these
little ones.
Crushed By Falling Tree
By a falling tree, Mr J. N.
Christy, a resident of Shoal Cheek
district, was instantly killed about
4 o’clock Monday, August 17,
while he and another man were
engaged in cutting logs for a saw
mill situated in the vicinity.
They had cut a tree which lodged
against another tree, and in their
endeavor to dislodge the tree they
had previously cut, felled another
tree across the first one. When
the latter tree fell and struck the
body of the first tree the butt was
shot back by the force of the fall,
as it shot back struck Mr. Christy
about the neck and falling across
his prostrate form.
Mr. Christy was one of Shoal
Creek’s most beloved citizeus, and
this was evidenced by the host of
people who gathered at the funer¬
al to pay their last respects to the
deceased. It is said that this gath¬
ering was the largest ever assem¬
bled at that church at a funeral.
Rev. J. M, Nix conducted the
funeral services.
The deepest sympathy goes out
for the widow and family in their
bereavement.

Maxwell Elected Vice President
01 Citizens-Southen
Alva G. Maxwell, assistant vice
president of the Citizens and,
Southern bank, has been elected to
a vice presidency to succeed Henry
S. Cohen, who has resigned to en¬
ter a business venture in Tacoma,
Wash., according to announce¬
ment Suturddy by the board of di¬
rectors,
Mr. Maxwell came to the Citi
zens and Sourthern Irotn Gaines¬
ville, where lie was vice president
of the Gainesville National bank.
He was first in charge of the busi¬
ness department of the Citizens
and .Southern and in January was
made an assistant vice president
with general supervision over the
new business depratment. In his
new position Mr. Maxwell will in
addition to the duties of his first
two positions have charge of ad¬
vertising and public relations.
It was stated that Mr. Cohen has
formed a partnership with Major
M. 11 . Screws, formerly of Atlan¬
ta and now of Greenville, S. C.,
which will keep him in the north¬
west during the next twelve or
eighteen months.
II. Lane Young, executive man¬
ager of the Citizens and Southern,
in commenting Saturday an the
election of Mr. Maxwell said his
promotion was in keeping with
the policy of the bank in electing
its ranking executives from its ju¬
nior officers and that the policy
had proved its efficacy itr the in¬
creased business of the bank.
“It is the Citizens and Southern
policy to secure junior officers from
amoung its own employees and to
elect its ranking executives from
its junior officers, and the fact that
we have nine complete banks in
the four principal cities of Georgia
provide an ample supply of thor¬
oughly trained young bankers a
vailable for promotion,” said Mr.
Young. “We are in spendid con¬
dition to take care of the increas¬
ed business that the present out¬
look makes us expect. It is usual
for deposits of the Atlanta banks
to decrease at tins period of the
year, as they are called upon to fi¬
nance the movement of crops, and
it is only natuntl to expect deposits
to be at a low ebb during July and
August. This year, however, de¬
posits have shown a steady and
consistent increase, and we know
of no better way to estimate the
prosperity of an individual or of a
community than by the amount of
cash on hand. Atlanta’s position
as the distributing center of the
south makes it very certain that
the increased prosperity of the sec¬
tion will be very quickly and sub¬
stantially reflected here.”
