There were two kinds of wooden stocks. One was the smily kind and the other one had a foot that came up to between the handles.

It is thought by some that the lellow that plows and hoes his own row is fit for that and nothing else. li was not so in past days. Elisha was plow inJJ seven yoke of oxen when he was called to be a prophet of Israel, so in those old days they did some good work too, jsreat Butman left hi? oxen to the plow and hastened to join the patriots when he heard the guns of Bunker llill that were heard aronnd the world. CincinaUus was ^plowing when he was called to be a Roman dictator. Cincinatti, an inland city, a great railroad center likeAl lnnta, was named for him. When Joe E. Brown ran for governor he was known as the plowboy ofGad disfown, just as Allan I). Gaudier was known as tlie one-eyed plow boy of Pigeon Roost. Mne people heard him gladly for he pleased the country people and also the city people for they had once’ lived in the country. Joe Brown was cold and calculating, but Howell Cobb was hot headed and impetus and was ready to criticise the plowboy of Gaddistown and tried to leave ttje impression that it was a dis¬ grace to the bull he plowed. There is a depression in business about every ten years. Busines was very Hood along about 19J9 and I p JO, but this was followed by a panic and all things seem to be on a stand-still at this time.

The Constitution was leading newspaper at that carried much news. Dick Hawes, the murderer in Alabama, and Tom Wolfolk, the murderer in Georgia, was given much space when they were on trial. folin Coffee, near Gainesville, was an outlaw, and the Chief of Police, (another Tom llatiie,) arrested him and was given a great write-up. Dr. W. U.Felton was prominent in politics serving in the Georgia legislature many years and six years in con¬ gress. Dr. Felton’s wife must have been inspired by her husband, or he was inspired by his wife, as both are immortal in Georgia’s his¬ tory. The boys and girls of today should be encouraged by those two outstanding figures. Many a girl throws herself away when she marries a boy of low ambitions,and boys handicap themselves when they choose the wrong girl. Any¬ body can do something great it they will.
