ASBESTOS BUZZING
Just from the Mountains.
The dry weather still prevails
here. The crops are suffering very
much for muisture. The early
crops are already cut oft by the
dry weather over which we have
no control. They have accused
Hoover as the cause of these hard
times and now they are blaming
him as the cause of this drouth.
Two years ago the Democratic
South went wi'd over Hoover, but
now what a change. Thus the
world has gone on through the
ages. Then they wanted to crown
him king today they want to cruci¬
fy him. Just as the Governor ot
this great stale so bus the hands of
the president been tied. It takes
union and joint cooperation to more
things. United we stand divided
we full.
There has been some refreshing
showers, but not enough to wet the
ground. In fact there has not been
a good season since about the loth
of. May.
Mr. John Hamilton was out this
way Wednesday, He has lost hop¬
es of his corn crop and is uneasy
about his cotton for it is blooming
to the top.
Mr. Boyd Hunt was out this
way last week. He told that John
Smith’s speech in p»«*enting his
wife to the children was just tine.
Mr. and Mrs. Harry Williams,of
Flowery Branch, was just passing
through Sunday.
Messrs George Saars and Virgil
Ramey were down this way Sun¬
day.
The Irish potato crop is short
owing to the dry season.
Some boys from Gainesville, on
their way to Dukes Creek for »
ovt this way
hunting bait but found none.
Mr. Fleming, a ruining prospec¬
tor, has been among us for some¬
time. He has secured mining
rights to a good deal of the pro¬
perty that has gold mines leading
from Slabtown to Robertstown.
This is a famous gold belt on which
the forefathers dug millions of dol¬
lars of gold with the pick and
shovel. If they made money then
why not now with all the modern
machinery? The production ol
gold for the last few years has
been running very short. The
largest nugget east-of the Mississi¬
ppi was found on this famous belt
You were told when you were a
boy that the Blue Ridge was the
backbone ot the world, that the
Chattahoochee held its name all
the way through and the Mississi¬
ppi was the greatest body of water
All of which you nave found out
not to be true.
There are two classes of people :
those that are thankful for a favor
and those that are unthankful.Men
are only grown up children. Some
are very bad spoilt children indeed
The more favors bestowed the
more is looked for and w hen thing
quit coming their way there is a
gall of bitterness. Bought friends
are not worth much but one is very
valuable when he willstick through
thick and thin.
CARD OF THANKS
We are profoundly thankful for
the kindness and words of consola¬
tion given us during the
and death of our mother'. May
God's blessings be and abide with
each of you,

SHOAL CHEEK ITEMS
The quietude of this district, the
sound of the old time cow bell and
the oft repeated baa of the sheep is
noticed by the stranger as he jour¬
neys along, the road.
The farmers were the recipients
of a shower of rain last week,
verifing the truth of Holy writ that
God ‘•setuleth ruin on the just and
on the unjust.”
People are horned, they live and
die. Death is dreader! by many.
Why is this? Webster say* : “A
holy life will disarm death of its
sting.” It must be that the past
life of wickedness is why many are
unwilling to leave the earth. Be
this trure or untrue, (tie life com¬
mences and closes and people had
as well go quiet as disturbed. We
are taught that the body is the
home of the »ou), and the soul is
the home of God, or that God
dwells in the soul. Then God or
Satun occupies the soul and in that
way controls the motions of the
body. From the acts of the body
we can know which one of the un¬
seen powers inhabit the man. As
the body is tfie battle ground of
the two great powers. People
know where the battle is to be
fougbt.
Strie Senator James M. Pittver
on his way from Cleveland a fort
night ago called and spent the
night with u«, Heis a candidate
fer secretary of state and well
qualified for the office. We ask
the veters of White county to sup¬
port him in the election in Septem¬
ber. We know more about him
than any man in the county, as he
and I played together as children
and as boys, and John Simmons,
the grandfather of one ot us, was
the grandfather of both of us, all
of Lumpkin county.

Judge Frank W. Jenkins spoke
to the Georgia Press association
Tuesday at Barnesville on “Free
Speech and a Free Press,”
judge Jenkins states that the
newspaper profession does not
claim all the privileges which the
law allows it, that many news¬
papermen have been talked to free¬
ly by presidents of tilings which if
revealed to the pub'ic may have
caused a disturbance, but the news¬
papermen are considerate enough
not to publish that which might
injury the state or community. He
says for the pres- to attack tfie exe¬
cution or administration of the lav
is absolutely justifiable as there it
nothing sacred about a president,
governor, judge, etc.

P. S. ARKWRIGHT,
What
will the NEXT census show?
I APR years, population has been moving
X toward the big cities, concentrating. A
study of the movement, as shown by the
census records, demonstrates that this flow
has been toward areas with dependable elec¬
tric service.
It is entirely natural that this should be
80. Industry centers in such areas, and
there are payrolls. Workers are relieved
from the pulling and lifting and hauling
where electricity does these tasks. Home
life is finer and better and happier, because
electricity gives everyone more leisure, more
time to really live.
But the next ten years should witness a
change in that movement in Georgia. For
electricity is flowing out to meet the country
boy. Beginning at the big cities it has been
extended to the suburbs, to the smaller com¬
munities—and now the farms are beginning

And as electricity comes in, opportunities
for better and more profitable farming in¬
crease—and men will remain where oppor¬
tunity is, Life is made pleasanter, and the
farm boy and girl will not need to move
to the city toenjoy the advantages they desire.
The electrification of Georgia’s farms is
necessarily a slow process. It requires
great investments to build lines out into the
country. But it is being done!
It was not until July, 1928, that this Com¬
pany’s first rural line was cut in. Today
lines are being pushed to completion which
will, very soon, bring electricity to a total of
over three thousand farm families.
Compared to the need, this total is not
impressive. But against the obstacles and
problems which had to be overcome_this
beginning foreshadows great
developments in the next few
years.
And when the next census
is taken .... it is reasonable
to believe we shall see that
electricity will have reversed
the man-moVement and sent
it flowing back to the farms.

Last Days in Seclusion
Gres-Sur-Loing, France.—Half par¬
alyzed and almost blind, one of the
acclaimed composers of the world,
Frederic Delius, is spending the re¬
maining days of his life in this tiny
hamlet about 50 miles from Paris.
The man who imagined the music
for “Koanga” and “Margot le Rouge’’
no longer writes music; his greatest
effort is to shelter himself from the
world. Finch day his devoted wife
reads him the French, German and
English newspapers. Then, If the
weather is good, to give him the ben
etit of the l'resh air for an hour or so,
he is pushed in a wheel chair to the
river that flows at the foot of his
garden.
Even the touch of his beloved piano
is denied him, for his hands tremble
so that they cannot find the keys.
The recognition that has come to him
of recent years is too late, for Delius
cannot hear the plaudits that are ac¬
corded his compositions.
Boys Open Beauty Shop
for Household Pets
Wapaboneta; Ohio.—There no long¬
er is any excuse for bedraggled dogs
in Wapaboneta since Fenton Hamil¬
ton and Charles Fleming, Jr., both
thirteen, opened u dog beauty par¬
lor. The boys are the operators.
Their parlor is in the basement of
young Hamilton's home, and has
been equipped with appliances to re¬
move dirt, burrs and curl and comb
long and short hair.
The youthful proprietors distrib¬
uted circulars throughout the town
announcing they were prepared to
wash blaek-and-tan clogs for 20
cents, white ones for 35, mixed
colors for “two hits” and curly
haired dogs for 10 cents extra. They
guaranteed to remove burrs, gum, or
such other substances that might mar
the beauty of their clients, and prom¬
ise “kind treatment, no soap in the
eyes, and face washed separately.”
