Wayne County News * = M. H. JOHNSON, Editor, U. L. BENNETT, Manager. . Official Organ of Wayne County . . Subscription ft.00 A Year in Advance JESUP, Ga., OCT. 4, 1901. “Idleness is the mother af want.” Cane and potato crops are gen¬ erally good. “An honest man is the noblest work of God.” School work is life work: let take the matter seriously. The weather continues warm with occassional showers. Why should not South Ga. Join ranks solidly for EstiH? We can offer you town lots for sale not advertised in our columns. Life is too short to waste in crit¬ icising the actions of our neigh¬ bors. Turner is a good roan, and one whom all South Georgia delights to honor. Our School is increasing in numbers, and thte work is progress¬ ing nicely. Let your children enter school now and get started off regularly in their work. Aiu 1 making use of the oppor¬ tunities to do good to others a* themselves? A good deed is never lost. He who sows courtesy reaps friendship, lie who plants kindness gath¬ love.-Basil. The hardest workers are usually the happiest and most contented people you meet. Tilings generally go well with them.-Ex. Every man whom the world has pronounced a genius wag a great worker and denied the possession of any unusal ability.-Ex. When ono becomes deeply ab¬ in some good work that he becomes oblivious of self, he is not from greatness and the world is blessed by another benefactor. The people who have made the world better have never been satis fled with their condition or situa¬ tion. They have ever wanted to improve and advance. Progress lias been their watchword.-Ex. | An effort is being made to get the Jacksonville ostrich farm as one of the attractions for the State Fair at Savannah. The golden pheas¬ ants will also be brought here if the ostriches come. Why are the County board of education and the Woman's Club so silent on the matter of adding an industrial department to school? Someone speak out. We must get the matter before people if we expect their support in its establishment. Each successive day brightens the prospects of the coming State Fair at Savannah. Interest in city is awakening and citizens realize that Savannah’* reputation is at stake in making the Fair grand success. It is predicted that the Fair will mark an epoch in city’s progress. The State Fair Association Savannah is daily receiving cation for apaee for individual hibits from all over the state. counties, too, though they about coming in, are, nevertheless making applications for tion, with the view of for space later, As we are heartily in sympathy with the movement which contem plates the erection of a monument somewhere in Georgia to our late lamented president, and that many of tlie N.W Ka.dera will consider ita privilege to eon. tribute something in that direct Ion, wo .eke pleasure in nnnounc ing that we have been furnished with blanks and are prepared to take subscriptions for that pur pose. We should ,,,n, feel gratifhed j. to have every reader . of , the v News - to . give something. Patriotism de mands as much, and every contri bution, if made in the properspirit, will serve to bind more firmly the sympathies of the North and South. Union now and forever; one and inseparable. A Plea For Libraries. The country children of the average country homes have no literature to read except some old and stale«agricultural book and statistical volume sent zealously by the congressman, and perhaps a newspaper. When the children are sent to school they have no ad¬ vantages except those offered by the meager text books of the com¬ mon schools of this county. Every person that has had the advanta¬ ges of even a small library will admit that they received more cul¬ ture from it than from thecotnmon school course pursued in founding the elements of an education. The day has now arrived when we should look forward to social and moral trainiug as well as bus¬ iness qualifications. Fathers, Moth¬ ers, how can we have cultured children in our homes or schools unless we furnish the children with good literature? Just think how dangerous it is tc learn children to read and then not direct their reading into good channels. There is a great craze for dime Why? because the boys *nd are not supplied with books standard authors to read. They imitate tho character of the of the person they read after. think how baneful fora hoy to read the life of Jessie James other noted outlaws instead the biography of Washington, Lincoln or some other character that they might to something good if not and grand achievements. Does South Georgia or even W ayne County furnish her share cultured men for this state? lie answer no. Because they do not have the proper advantage of books in youth to inspire high ideals. Let us furnish our boy with a vol ume instead of a package of cig arettB. Stop and ask your self which is the most benefiicial, which will be an inspiration the book (well selected) or the cigar¬ ette. How many men of political or literary fame has Wayne coun¬ ty produced? If we have p'rodneed enough let ua stop and if not let us march on with the progress of time, and place first) a library in (even ifj I it be small at, evercoun- I ty school iu Wayne County. u 'e' can do it if we try. Ask our Rep -1 resentives or state Senator to have a bill presented and passed at next session of the Georgia Leg islature authorizing the Board of Education to levy a small school tax to be used in placing a library in every country school. Then the children that are too poor to buy books would have the same chance with other child¬ ren for literary culture. At prss ent they throw Etones at birds for amusemeht or muddy some pond pass off a weary hour, not otherwise employed. Every, school should have a de¬ bating society established for the advancement of the pupils. The teachers eau do this if they will for the community where they teach. Perhaps they have not bad a course in oratory or elocution but they can organize a debating society, purchase soma books on the subjects to be discussed and learn with their pupils. Learn to express their thoughts as well as to teach their pupils to express what they have learned in or out of school in a and concise manner to an audience. How benefit does a pupil derive from formal study of language if cannot express his idea with it. That is one of the great tb.t chiltiran get from th. .oci.ty, It itnprotr.a th.ir manner of ,p e Another benefit is th.t it leer,,. boy self pos.es.ioa whieh i. gre.rer value than any formal study of language can possibly be or even the pursuance of the close ■ college. ,, es in any ”, tt, Every „ . boy as he grows should . ,, up be go trained that when called on he could make an offhand address to an assemblage of people. That would be one grand step toward* culture. Let us educate, let uscul tivate the youth for in a few years they will be the American Nation. Yours for education, J. M. Markey. NOTICE.

Girls ore nice to look »t, but they come to>* high for ornaments. A man takes the ups and downs of life more resignedly after mar¬ riage because he realizes that, so far tvs he is concerned, hiscuke is all dough anyway. A girl often comes across a handsome man, but seldom sees a beautiful woman. A newly married woman looks like she wished she hadn’t as if she thought everybody had found it out on her. A girl is silly to believe all a fellow tells her. He knows he must either talk “taffy’“nr be consider¬ ed slow. Every married lady seems to it for granted that all the male boarders are in love with the baby and extremely to hear it repeat all the bright sayings the little tootsy-wootsy has ever been prompted to utter by the doting parent.
