Tt was Hilly Plus's birthday, and his .mother told him h« could have a purty, so he Invited all tho nnlinaJs from neighboring farms, to come. By noontime they had all assembled, and Hilly's l’ig's mother decided to have refreshments nt noontime, ns H ost of tho guests went to bed early. She spread a long table under tho trees, and all tho eakea and plea and candy und Ice cream were put on to gether.

I cun eat all there Is on this table In a few mln utea" "Vou better not," said a pig from the other side of the table. "I should think you would have better manners, Hilly Goat " "If you knew good manners yon would not put your nose so deep Into that Ice creum you are eating," replied Billy Goal. "If you do not like the way I am eating you can look another way," re plied the pig Billy Pie began to think they all were eating more than they should and that if they kept on he should fare badly the next day. so he slipped around to where Billy Goat sat and said, "Ts yon will help to stop them GET BUSY! When men sit around and twiddle their thumbs and tell each other business is "going to be bad”, their predictions are apt to come true—for them. Times are as good as we make them and no bet ter. The "live wires” are not complaining. They are hustling. They are not waiting for opportunities. They are making them. Turn to the advertising columns of the live daily newspapers and you see the men who are going after business now. They are getting it. too. INDOOR SPORTS from eating 1 will divide what Is left with you.” “All right,” said llllly float. “Go back to your sent, and In u minute give old Black Rooster, who sits next to you, a poke In the back, he will think It in the other rooster and I will take care of the rest.” HHly Pip did ns Billy Goat told him, and old Black Rooster bristled up and jumped on the ground. "What do you mean by pushing me that way," he asked, looking at Red Rooster Down flew Red Rooster and Jumped at Black Roosrer. Just then Billy Goat humped tho pig next to him and Off ha rolled onto the ground. He hit the (log, and the dog hit the goat next to him, and the goat hit the cow, who, never quarreling with anyone, ran home. But she lipped over the stool next to her, and the cat fell over on the duck, who thought sho was trying to cut her. and she quacked and Jumped ugslnst the hen next to her. The hen hit the turkey next to her, and as the goose fell over she hit the pig next to her with her bill. This frightened the pig, so thu. he Jumped up anil caught hold of the table und over It went, and all the guests under It cackled and quacked and squealed and harked and motved. So at last when the animals did get upon their feet they did not wait to even say good-bye to Billy Pig or his mother, but ran for horn as fast as they could go. "There. We got rid of them at last." said Billy Goat as the last one was out of sight. “Now we can have all we wont." “Don’t be such a pig,” said Billy pig as Billy Goat took the dish of Ice cream and began to eat from the dish. "Who are you calling a pig,” asked Billy Goat, Jumping up and humping Billy Pig with his horns. Billy Pig rolled over on the ground with a big custard pie he was eating, falling on his back. Off went Billy Goat, his head held high In the air and Billy Pig's mother took Billy by the ear and led him Into the house. "When you have another party It will be when you are old enough to behave. Now you go to bed." she said. (Copyright, I*l4, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate, N. Y. C.) Tomorrow's Story—“ Drusilla Misses Bobbie Jonee" “What possessed you.

Stlckney, Manager of a Co-operative Business.) The more I study It the more I am convinced that co-operation. In the trade and barter and conduct of man kind, Is a new religion. To me. it is more interesting than all the records of battles and sieves. Kings and gov ernments cqme and go, armies win £nd lose and leave little or nothing f<jf posterity, but this struggle of men to live without oppression or penury with some decency and opportunity, is real ly the only struggle worth thinking about, for it includes all others, and re mains when others pass. . . . Twenty eight men working in woolen mills for a wage that compelled them to live in poverty and destitution, made a solemn compact one gloomy November after noon in 1843 to save four cents pef week for one year, the money to be used to start some kind of an institu tion that would enable them to buy the actual necessities of life a little cheap er. ; The business was launched and they formulated a set of rules that has caused the world to make a beaten pathway to their door. These rules are today written wholly or in part In the fey-laws of every strictly co-operative company, no matter where It is organized, and they are also writ ten Into the co-operative incorporation laws of Wisconsin and other staes. states. They nre the commandments of this new r religion in trade. They have revolutionized the business of em pires and are slowly permeating every industry In the known world. Strange It may seem, but almost the same Ideas were being evolved in Ger many at the time the pioneers were or ganizing nt Rochdale. . . The re ports of our consular officers show that Belgian Refugee Offer of Brooks Strike Popular Chord Quitman, Ga. —What was a simple and small effort on the part of Brooks county to secure twenty Belgian fami lies has developed into a state-wide movement looking to the securing of a whole shipload, about one thousand families, of Belgians for Georgia. Im mediately following the press an nouncement the Industrial Club secre tary began receiving telegrams and letters from all over Georgia offering to take some of the Belgian refugees on the basis of house and ten acres of land rent free for one year, some even offering greater Inducements. The matter has assumed such proportions that the Industrial Club has decided to let the state of Georgia in on the prop osition. and endeavor to get enough Belgians taken care of to authorize the effort to get a whole shipload to come to Georgia, landing at Savan nah. Among the many offers to care for Belgians received Is the following: Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 21st, 1914.

By far thegreat er number were women with young children. “Of all the ghastly details of car nage and slaughter In the morning tapers, of army hurtling upon army, of the deadly work of machine guns, of the new bayonet, "with teeth on it, which slips in easily but tears the flesn to pieces In the process of withdraw «l,” of bo.i-ba dropping destruction from n rshlps m the clouds, of burn ing villages, desolated homes, devas tated harvest field*- all the horrors before which the world stands aghast —tins fUtetkcc In the telegram of a war By Tad co-operation at work is a success In every country in Europe. X have searched the records in vain to find a country where It has been tried and failed. It may appear that we here in America have been a little slow in taking up Co-operative work. It must be remembered, however, that this is practically a new country. Even here in the Mississippi Valley, men still live who braved the dangers and hard ships of pioneer life In helping to push westward the frontier of civilization to the foot-hills of the Rockies. It is therefore natural that co-operation as we know it was for a time neglected. There has been a mighty awakening, however, the last few years, and the American people are today brought face to face with the problem of a more economic distribution of all the products that come from factory, farm and mine. The department of agri culture gives out the information that there are In the United States some thing over 60,000 co-operative organi zations all told Conservative men estimate that this movement among the farmers of Il linois, commencing in 1902, has been the means of raising the price of grain at least three cents per bushel over the entire state. That is, the farmer is receiving 3c a bushel more for his grain than he would If there were no co operative elevator companies in the state, and 3c a bushel on 300,000,000 of grain means that $9,000,000 are left In the pockets of the Illinois farmers that would have been lost either In distri bution or otherwise. A permanent ad vance of 3c per bushel In grain to the farmer means that at least $5.00 or more added to the value of every acre of land where these conditions obtain. It means added value to every Item of property of every kind In every com munity where there is a co-operative comapny. grants to Georgia. I am specially In terested in this and can offer 25 or 50 farms in a body, 15 miles from Macon, each farm having new three to five room houses on same, rent free for one to two years and will also give some financial assistance. Wishing you much success in your efforts, I re main W. H. Allen, 4th National Bank Build ing, Atlanta, Ga" Every county In Georgia Is now of fered a chance to come in on the proposition and If enough farms are offered, Brooks county will endeavor to secure a whole shipload of Belgian farmers for Georgia. They are the most thrifty of all European farmers, make more on ten acres than the average American on one hundred acres, and their lands are valued at around six hundred to one thousand dollars per acre. Any county or individual wanting to get In on this proposition axe urged to wire or write to the Industrial Club at Quitman, stating Just what they have to offer the Belgian farmers. BROOKS CO.
