A pumpkin carved like a face with a candle light within gave it a touch. The CountyAgent is right about a winter cover crop tor our lanes. It is a choker on our boasted civil¬ ization to see the soil going down our streams after every rain. The greed for gain has caused many to ‘run the lands in one crop year year without any rotation. Years jack you never saw land put in crop s\stem—only one year at a time. The corn was followed by wheat, rye or oates. The trouble with the South they have been killing grass to grow cotton, Grass is otir clieapkst crop. Christmas is all the world’s day. The first day of April is AH Fool’s day and Hallowe'en is All Saint’s d tv. They had allallowe’on party over in linppy Hollow. The maids had contest in wearing tuckie clothes. The old woman that liv¬ ed in a shoe went across the milky way with a broom in hand to sweep the cobwebs out of of the sky with aboa;. a million black cats follow¬ ing her. The fox fire on a neigh¬ boring stump gale light for the occassion. Then came the witches singing Double, double toil and double. Fire burn and caldron bubble. Eye of a hevvt and tog of a frog, wool of a bat and tongue of a dog. So m the light of the stioon days and nights last thirty one. To cap the climax there was a pumpkin custard eating contest among some of our most noted bachelors. It was won by two hut afterwards there was a burnt i g oft of buttons, which were lly mg in every direction. One stray button put out the Mayor’s eye. To those who have won laurels are row wearieg clothes minus then butions. At the close of the oC' casino ail had their fortunes told which only cost 5 cents. One fel¬ low lurned'the cup and there was ins ships sailing mightii ocean all laden with silver and gold. Anoth e,i shuffled the cards and there was diamond )oe, who had robbed Ins father of hi- silver and gold und ieit him in the cold. The oldest man, who had .lived 969 years looked back over the ijrict span of years and it .all seem¬ ed like a dream. It is but nuturii tor all life to want to live as long as it can. Watch all life fight foi the protection of life from the an g'e worm to the mighty archangel Toe saddest scene is to see a lit* wasted oil the barren sands of a dessert. Life to the young seems tc reach far away and the journey seems long. To the old life is bui a brittle thread that the fates o) time may clip at any moment. "Dust thou art and to dust relurn e'h.

AH children attend the common school many attend the high school and a few attend the college, and so it is in life. Ah commence the battle and play at the game, but it is just a few that is looked to as being a success. Whether this is correct will have to be decided by the Allwise on the basis of natural talents given to each. Mr. Young O’Kelley and Mr. Garland Brown, two bachelors presented us with two large pump¬ kins yesterday. Those gentlemen are candidates for “matrimony and candidates for matrimony and will announce in the future. They say it there is anything they love more then a pretty girl it is good ole pumpkin pie. The farmers are gathering then crops as fast as possible and utiliz mg their time in various ways, li you want to ree a section that i dot 11 g well look for those that art industrious. The world is on a move in even respect. Surely this is an age ot progress, but how long ir will con tinue we do know not. Is it like ly that the “dark ages” of history will ever repeat themselves?

October 27, 1930; Editor Cleveland Courier, Cleveland, Georgia. Dear Editor : W ilt you kindly give me a short, -pace in your paper? Since I have been studying Indian Life in the. Southwest, requests hive become so numerous as to the way l went about this difficult task and the progress that 1 am making, I take this method of answering the great¬ er number of those req ests. 1 am living in an Indian Pueble (or village) of about fifteen hun¬ dred real Indians, Yes. and right in the home of one of them, study¬ ing 11 it* i r customs, beliefs, cere¬ monials. dances, and language.The lattei 1 find to be the hardest thing that 1 have ever encountered,which perhaps is'one reason why J like it so well. The Indians are a race who if they like you would simply give their life if necessary and willingly too for a friend; but if they do not like you, then it is just too bad; tnd do not think for a moment that you can fool them either. They seem to he a good judge as to whether “pale face” is their friend nr enemy. Luckily, for me they -oinehow had a way ol knowing that I was their friend and 1 am certainly being treated with all the ■oyalty and kindness that I could wish for in any place. In a -licit time I hope to change location in order to study the other tribes, such as the Nuvaho, Apachee, Utes, and others, ire tar less civilized than tbePuehh Indians, 1 am also collecting, wonderful lot of pictures of mcient people. The interesting things i’ learned since living with would fi'l your entire md 1 am sure 'fil e Editor would object to that ; and so 1 must tnakt it brief. However, 1 hope those who liave written me will see and be content to wait nut II re turn to “Dear <»d Georgia, when I assure you 1 will have just plenty I things to tell you ; some comical, wme astonishing,and some horrify ng, but every one very, very in r eresting, | I am sorry tha J cannot a ns wet ■aeli letter personally but since 1 - on here, 1 am trying to improve ny time studying and wri.ing: herefore my time is filled up and I find very little for social corres¬ pondence.

There lias been so said until there is very little left say, and too I hate to remind one of it. Not how we got into but how .are we going to get out. Why is it hard time,? causes them? When will times better? are some of the ask me while traveling over county. I also hear about the number of remedies for the present depression. Listen folks, my opinion is that you haven’t experienced yet unless you wake up, quit plant¬ ing so much cotton.see what others are doing and profit by then suc ces. We all know that the farmers have been hard hit for the past few years and feel awful y discouraged, but when I inquire about the best farmers in the county 1 am direct¬ ed to those who are wide awake, planting summer and winter leg times in their crop rotation. They sow small grain in the fall to keep the plant food from being washed away after the pushing freezes dur¬ ing the winter months. They also find that the sowing of small grains insures them of a good feed supply next spring. They turn their land m the fall and live at home as much as possible. They’re the mes who wilt not find their feed -upply exhausted next spring when somebody will be buying feed. f Humanism: The election returns Wednesday stuck the Hoover administration a blow bybringing the next congress ipparently into the hands of the Democrats, witli victories which were vertiubly a landslide.

Roosevelt carried some tlie of re¬ publican upstate counties of New York, which never before have gone for a democratic candidate for governor. Already politicians are beginning to predict as to possible candidates for the presidency in 1932. Those mentioned in the lest areRoosevelt, Ritchie and Bulkley of Ohio on the democratic side, with Morrow and Pinchot republicans. The results of the election show id a nation-wide revolt against prohibition.

GIANT REDWOODS TO BE PRESERVED New Shoots Will Replace Stock Taken in Logging. Portland, Ore.—Next year. It is es¬ timated, the area stocked with young trees each year in the West Coast red¬ wood belt will equal the area logged over annually, -fhaher men say that this means there ' will In* perpetual commercial forests „ . in . ... this country. The picture is ul once es tlietic uud practical. It answers the sentiment for preservation of the “great woods” and at the same time protects tiie lumber supply. Al ready one of the largest lumber com panics in the Pacific Northwest is cut timber from land that was re stocked 40 years ago. In tiie redwood region, from southern Oregon to lower central California, private companies are setting out an¬ nually more than three million trees. For each mature redwood cut ten baby trees are planted, in from 40 to 00 years they will be ready for harvest. Long-range culture has been ex tended to other forest trees. Fir, spruce and cedar forests are being re¬ placed in a far-sighted policy that looks to tiie time when virgin growth will he exhausted. Vast areas denuded by logging operations have been made to yield new crops of sturdy trees. Many of the large companies, whose timber holdings cover smaii-sized em¬ pires, have undertaken systematic re¬ forestation of cut-over areas. They say that long before their original stand of timber is exhausted a new forest will he ready. One paper com¬ pany, to perpetuate its supply of pulp wood, lias established a nursery, from which J ,500,00(1 young trees will b<a transplanted this year.
