Aside from the local county contootH.
there la a state campaign, a congres

atorial race for the voters to decide.
Augusts and Richmond county ought
to compliment Congressman Hardwick

COMMISSION GOVERNMENT FOR
AUGUSTA.
We believe the voters of Auguata
are overwhelmingly In favor of adopt
ing the commission form of govern
ment for thla city and Joining the 800
or more progressive cities that live
under the new rule.
It will do more In push Augusta
forward than any one public move
ment that appeals to the wholo com
munity.
Augusta haa twice voted on thla
proposition. I gist time the vote was
overwhelmingly lit favor of the com
mission plan with practically no votes
cast aaatnat It. Rut the lilt) was d«-
fested In the legislature before the
committee.
I«et s make no mistake of thla kind
•gain. Boon candidate* will he an
nouncing for the legislature. Find out
how the candidates stand on a com -
mission hill for Auguata. Bend n>
man to the legislature who will not
commit htmaelf In favor of a commis
sion charter for the good city of Au
gusta.
What the county commissioners have
dose and ore doing for the county oT
Richmond, commission government
will do for the city of Augusta. Au
guata is handicapping its future by
living under the old worn-out coun
cllmsnlc plan.
MORE STEAM FOR THE GOOD OLD
TOWN.
It !■ a writ known fact that tho
more train* a road run* tho more pas
•nt|o travel Is stimulated. The Geor
gia Railroad ha* one of the bent local
paaeeniiri travel* In the South. We
truat there I* nothin* in the report
that the contemplated changes In train
•arvlen for th*t road will In any way
hamper or curtail the t;‘undid local
accommodation train service.
The Georgia undoubtedly need* a
through train service between Augus
ta and Macon, Augusta and Atlanta,
and Augusta and Athene, and such
a service could be maintained with
out impairing the splendid local serv
ice the road now gives.
One of these days, we trust, the
Coast Lin* i* going to put on that
Naw York-New Orleans through ner
vier via Augusta and the Georgia
Railroad. It will open up a rich ter
ritory and will at least put Augusta on
tha thrmifch railroad map of the coun
try. We suggest to the M. A M. Ass'n
as one of the best works for the pres
ent year the starting of this agitation
lor through train service via Augusta
over the Coaat Line and the Georgia
Railroad

Hilly Munda), Imachall evangelist,
expressed indlfferen'e and plana
to r mtlntie haa work aa If nothing
mi all bad bOM ened The olijcc
lion to Sunday has been largely
on the ground of his utterly un
coitvenllonul methods and lan-
S auae, and a hlgn-bandad way of
caling with situations. Not aa
n defense, hut na an intimate
study of the man and his work,
tne Rev, Elijah I* Brown, some
time assist ant to Sunday and now
better known as "Ham's Horn"
Drown, has written with Sunday's
sanction and under hla direction
"The Real Hilly Sunday," n vol
ume published ny the Fleming II
Revefl Company. From It the
■elections which follow are taken
There never waa any preaching
done Jes like that baseball man does
It lie's got a platform to stand on
more'n to Idg as two wagon boxes
and lie klvets every Inch of It In
every sermon he preaches. In Iha
mootin' xxx he got so Tied up
that he tore off both his coat and vest.
Jerkpd tiff his collar and kervat, an
then rolled up his sleeve* as If he was
a-goln' to help thresh I thought I'd
heard rather strong preachln' all my
life, but I never heard none that took
hold of me like liis'n does Why It
goes Into you like chtggerg."
That Is the way an early convert of
Dllly Sunday described Ills work.
Since then Ids deputation has lost
nothing In force Htid str«Nigth, Judg
ing by the speeches of more recent
date and the throngs which flock to
hear him.
In a place where Sunday waa to
hold a meeting a delegation of mlnla
tera naked him to tone down Ids re
marks To them he replied:
"Why, Isl did that I wouldn't Use
any more people to preach to than
you do!"
And that ia the light In which he
vlewa hla unusual methods
The typical Sunday meeting takes
place In a bilge, brilliantly lighted
nulldlng with it roped-ln space in
front for delegations from various
lodges and organist lons, and over the
platform a Tinge white banner on
which Is painted In lilaik letters throe
feet high:
Get Right With God

Tbc t»i enlng prayer is delivered by
amine ltical clergyman. Htid two or
three more snnge are sung. Then Sun

marks of s pertinent nature and says:
"Dig up!'
The new, shining milk pans which
hang on the posts Hhout the ball arc

Chapter Three.
When BUI got off the train and
took Ihe ferry across the North
Rive r to New York It was just übojt
dusk As he stood on the front deck
and looked at the sky line of miles
and miles of awelnsniring buildings
that were Just beginning to be light
ed. and heard the steady bun and
purr of the great city—Bill began to
get a bit nervous and thought to him
self "Gee whir! WHAT a place,
and I've got to make a living out of
pare; Ills collar begins to look us If
it had seen batter days; soon he Is
raining great sledge hammer blows
on the desk to force home hla points,
and people start aa if allot at
“There I* hut one word that will
even remotely indicate Ills manner,
end that la “action ” At one mo
ment lie la at one end of the platform
and the next at the other, and then
quicker than thought he ounda hack
to the corner, giving the desk a solar
plexus blow that would knock out a
giant Kver and anon he niakea long
rapid strides to give it more whacks,
until at last a large piece splits off
and hound* to the sawdust floor be
low, at which every small hoy in the
front row Jumps and says 'Gee!'"
And here are aome of the things he
says:
"I don't care if a church ha* two
thousand church members What I ask
Is, how much power have they? Nine
times out of ten you hlHme the evan
gelist when there are no conversion*.
Instead of the Godforsaken, booxe
hitting card playing church member*
There were places where Jesus could
do no mlghtv work because of unbe
lief where there should have been
faith.
"I safd to a barkeeper one time,
‘Why don't you give your heart to
Christ? You are too nice a Tellow to
he In this vile business.' He said ‘I
wouldn't he In It If the church mem
liera hadn't voted for me.' If there
la anything that makes me alck It Is
to have some red nosed, buttermilk
eyed, beetle browed, peanut brained?
stall feil old saloon keeper say that
he wouldn't he In the business If It
were not for church members voting
for him Hell Is so full of church
member* like that their feet are stick
ing out of the windows."
And this Is one of his replies to
criticism for the language he uses:
"Where you put salt It kills the
Flies Kill More People Than All the
Beasts of Prey— Phone 383 and
Ask Dr . Murphey
Onee more. In order to convey some
Idea of the destructiveness of this
small Insect, we quote from an offi

Flies kill a greater number nf human

ferrv he asked a policeman how to get
to the address of his boy friend —the
one who had come back to BiliV

to go to the dictionary to find out
what it meana. Some of you preacn
era had better look out or the devil
will get away with aome of your mem
bers before they can find out wlint
you mean hy your aermona."
These are some of his maxims ana
sayings:
I would rather have standing
room in heaven than own the
world mid go to hell.
If good preaching could have
saved the world It would have
been done lotyt ago.
You can find everything in the
average church from a hum
ming bird to a turkey buzzard.
You don't have to look like a
hedgehog to he pious
la there any bread in rum?
Yes, for the tirewer and the sa
loon keeper, but not for the drun
kurd'a family.
I would rather he a pastor of
a graveyard than to some
churches.
If you would have your chil
dren turn out well, don't turn
your home Into a lunch counter
and lodging house.
If the womanhood of America
had been no better than the man
hood. the devil would have had
the country Tenced In long ago.
Man was a fool In the Garden
of Kdcn and he has taken a great

The devil hates tbe-church. but
he IlkeH the work some high
brows do in It.
Going to church can’t make any
body a (itrlsijan any more than
taking a wheelbarrow into a gar
age makes it an automobile
paralysis. Also, It Is coming to be
known that they are responsible lor
some part of the spread of certain
communicable diseases, which general
ly are dreaded not only for what they
are, hut for what they Indicate.
But let us return for a moment to
the news note Inserted yesterday. Ob
viously, It Is n fabrication. There Is
not In the whole city of Augusta a do
mestic who would think enough about
the presence of a fly to even mention
the fact to the mistress of the house,
other than casually.
There ts not a housekeeper who
would think of notifying the police of
such a matter.
But when the public has been bet
ter educated by n wide dissemination
of scientific fads and data such an
occurrence will be not only possible,
but, with certain changes of detuil,
entirely probable.

but that he could so up to his friend's

did. an t as he sat in the little dingy
room and realised that the ride In
the trains and the excitement of the
trip was over, a strange lump arose
in Ms heart, that feels like Indiges

Train Boys
To Raise Hogs
The Department of Agriculture Gives
Instructions for Pig Club Members.
In this time of the shortage of beef
raise more hogs.
That's Uncle Sam's advice, given
through* his Department of Agricul
ture. To be sure the farmers won't
forget It, be would train them as boys
and hoys' pig clubs are his means of
education.
Any boy who has a pig can be a
member. Uncle Bam has prepared a
bulletin which tells him how to Teed
and care for his stock.
Some of the points to bear in mind
are the following: :
The feeding and care are as impor
tant as the breeding in producing a
good hog. Plenty of feed and care
may make a good bog out of a runt,
but lack of it will always make a runt
out of a good pig.
To make pork cheaply a permanent
pasture and forage crop must be used.
Your pigs must have a dry bed and
plenty of sunshine
Hegln feeding the pig as soon as he
will eat, and keep him growing until
he Is mature.
Always keep plenty of clean, fresn
water where the hogs may drink at
any time.
Quarantine all newly purchased ani
mals for three weeks.
Never keep a brood sow that will
not produce more than four strong
pigs at a litter.
Always keep a mixture of charcoal,
wood ashes, lime, sulphur, salt and
copperas before the hogs.
THERE IS A PATH.
From the lowliest depths there is a
path to tho loftiest height.—Carlyle.
I Ills first comment was. “Where d ya
get that small town wardrobe- You'll
never get a Job if you go around
wearing that Kind of scenery." As
Rill lay in bed that night he kinda
wished he was back in his own home,
but as long as he wits in New York
■ lie made up his mind to stick it out.
Also, the first thing In the morning
some of his *3O was going for some
new "scenery, as his friend called
it.—H. C.
