1 l ave been busy circulating in Georgia
| while the senator has been busy with
I ids duties in Washington. Whether
1 mhi sre for Hoke Bmith or not, It is
well to acquaint yourself with the
; iacla.
Georgia Ih not going to make the
mistake nt retiring JJoke Smith from
Washington and the senate In the
present crisis. His hands should he
and undoubtedly will he strengthened
by an overwhelming vote of confi
dence In the coming primary.
Georgia Ueu ocrutH will not weaken
the democratic administration by re
tiring one of its ablest supporters in
the V H senate In this juncture.
ON THE JOB.
New York and Liverpool are on the
job preparing means to finance and
to transport the cotton crop and the
other crops of this country. A few
Kliort weeks and the nations of the
world will experience a famine in the
supplies furnished by this country
unless means are arranged to finance
and to export the raw materials need
ed from this country
Bra til hits already chartered steam
era to ply In the American trade with
the U. H.
Boats are already being arranged
for by the United States to take the
place of the liners withdrawn from
service.
Norway, Sweden. Belgium, Holland
and other countries will soon hake
ships engaged In the American trade.
The commerce of this country la too
vital to the needs of the world to be
be held up and hampered. European
war makes It doubly so
AUGUSTA BANKS AND THE COT
TON CROP
I,mml year government funds were
offered tiie A igustn hunks to hsslh 4 .
Ut the cotton crop movement. Many
southern cities took advantage of
this offer and secured gtverntnenf
funds Augusta hanks were to well
supplied with funds that they did nor
tall upon the government for a 6oi
j Imp.
Augusta did not handle ss much
cotton Inst year ns she should and
could have handled. Per ha pa it wag
I the fact that other clttea and othet
cotton firms had more abundant
fund* to handle the movement, that
caused cotton which should have
come to Augusta elo go to other
points
Columbia banka have already made
nirangementa to secure half a mil
lion or more of government fund* to
I handle the crop movement. This is
going to draw cotton and trade to
Columbia, other cities in the south
will follow suit.
While Augusta banka are in splen
did condition nnd with plenty of
money, vet the cotton factors and ex
porters of this city, will be at n dis
tinct disadvantage if the funds avail
aide for handling the crop at Augusta
are not ns large and as easily avail
able mb they are in nearby and com
peting cities Augusta can not retain
or Increase its cotton trade unless it
is prepared to meet this competition.
Augusta hanks should take advan
tMge of the government's offer this
yaar to secure government fund* to
handle the crop movement in this ter
ritory.

PETER AND THE MOUNTAIN OF
GOLD—PART 1.
Pplit was a little orphan boy. and
lie llvni all alone In a little house A
little garden which grew In front was
all that supported Peter, for hla vege
tables were the nicest for miles around.
One day while he was working he
saw something shining in the earth
where he was digging, and when he
stooped to pick it up he saw it was a
hean, but very different from any Pe
ter had ever seen. It was yellow like
gold.
As he turned it over In his hand he
hiard something rattle Inside it. He
crushed It .between his thumb and fin
ger, and a tiny key dropped his
hand That was gold color also.
All day while he was at work Peter
thought of the key and what it might
unlock. When night came he was still
thinking about it, nnd after he finished
his supper he could not go to bed, the
thought of the key made him so wide
awake.
"I'll go into the woods." said Peter.
"That is where the fairies are. and
perhaps I will see them and find out
about the key and what it unlocks.”
But lie dhl not ace the faries. In
stead he walked so far that he found
himself In a strange part of the coun
try, where there were hills and moun
tains and rivers, and where It was
daytime instead of night, as it had
been when he started from his home.
As he looked about Peter saw in the
distance a mountain that looked dif
ferent from the others—it was bright
like the color of gold.
"That is the color of the , key."
thought Peter, hurrying toward It: and
before he had gone far. although the

mountain seemed quite a distance
when he first saw it, he found himself
in front of it.
A bright light flashed in front of his
eyes,, which made Peter blink, and
when he opened his eyes again he saw
a door in the mountain, and looking
closer, saw a tiny key hole.
Peter took the key from his pocket
and tried it. He heard a faint click
as i# turned the key Rnd the door
aliened.
He stepped inside and the door was
closed behind him. Peter was a little
timid when he realised he was a pris
oner. but a bright light and a cheery
voice saying, "Come this way,” soon
ended his fear.
When Peter came nearer the light,
he saw it was a lantern carried by a
little man in a funny little brown suit
with a long beard.
“You were pretty hard to get here."
said the little man. smiling, "I was
afraid we would have to try some oth
er way.”
"I suppose I might have appeared to
be more interested,” said Peter, "but
you see I have to attend to my garden
before anything, as I have to keep it
in good condition. But why do you
want me to come here?” he asked.
“You shall soon hear.” said the lit
tle brown man, "but first come and
meet my brothers.”
He led Peter along a path and pres
ently they came ta a little village. I
say little because' the houses were
small, and the trees, and Peter saw
many little men like his companion
running toward them.
Peter wondered what all this meant,
but he did not ask any more questions.
When the little men had gathered
around them Peter's companion said:
"Now, Peter, we have a proposition to
make to you. On the other side of this
mountain lives a giant who tramples
on all the gardens every year and
makes the people suffer for food be
cause lust as soon as thev get their
vegetables growing well this giant
comes down from the mountain and in
a single night, with big feet, he has
has crushed their gardens bevond

"What we want is that you should
go to his cave and steal his boots He
will not lie able to walk without them
and as there is not enough leather in
the land to make him another pair for
a long time we think we can find some
way to be rid of him before he can
get another pair."
But what can I do to help you with
a giant?" asked Peter. "I am only a
little boy."
