Mussoloni, the new premier of Italy,
talks to the Italian parliament with
out kid gloves, though he forces his
ministers to wear frock coats.
President Harding, at a rather be
lated time, is seeking to explain his
of sentiment on the prohi
bition question.” Is any explanation
necessary in the circumstances?
Another American citizen has been
kidnapped in China. A little plain,
but emphatic talk from the State de
partment, it sterns to us, would put
a very quick stop to this thing.
The Sultan of Turkey finds it ex
pedient to make his escape, instead of
abdicating. Tbe chnaees are that the
Kemalists will bp ai pleased with the
one, as the other condition, since*’it
removes the Undesirable.
After all the fuss and feathers that
have been made about it, it now
seems that George will take
his seat in the United States senate
tomorrow, without the slightest rip
ple on the waters.
Woodrow- Wilson is said to be in
better health and spirits than has
been the case in three years. If
is true, and we believe that it is,
'he will play an important part in na
tional polities in the* next two years
The d’fficials of the Board of Trade
are delighted with the manner in
which the people of Brunswcik have
responded to their membership drive
during the past week. It was really
pleasant work for the committee and
it speaks well for Brunswick.
Secretary of State McLendon says
the newspapers always make it a rule
to quote him inaccurately. That’s al
ways the excuse of the official who
talks too much and does not know
himself what he says, until he sees it
in cold type.
We are pleased that the ladies of
the D. A. R. are going to see to it
that Brunswick has a Georgia pro
ducts dinner next month. The idea is
a unique one and is being carried out
all over the state and w r e are sure
Brunswick will measure up with the
best of them.
Bonar Law seems to be safe afcd
sound above all party troubles with
a majority of eighty votes in the Brit
ish parliament. He might fare bet
ter, however, if his working majority,
had been closer. There is a grave
danger for the dominant party, when
the minority is almost nil, as the
Harding congress has found out.
We live in an age of changing con
ditions. Judge Munro, of the Colum
bus circuit, for instance, has seen fit
to order a change of venue in a crim
inal case, without such a request com
ing from the defendant, who is on
trial for murder. We are not familiar
with the case of course, but on the
face of it, it is most extraordinary to
say the very least of it.
Whenever the politicians of Savan
nah find themselves completely out of
something to do, they attack the
newspapers of that city. It seems to
us that this sort of all-the-year-round
sport has about ceased to be funny
with the right thinking people of Sa
vannah and we are wondering why
the Savannah newspapers do not find
a way to put a stop to it.
What a peculiar lot of funny poli
ticians there are in this country of
ours. For instance, Senator New.
himself defeated for reelection to the
krtiitc, says ‘.The retention of a ma
jority in both branches of congress
in the elections of November 7th, was
a‘ great victory for President Hard-
ing.” ' Truly the Senator is whistling
to keep any courage in his heart at
BRUNSWICK—A GREAT TOWN.
i
Up one side and down the other, we
do not believe there is a better town
on the top side ef God’s earth than is
this little hamlet, we all love so well!
Really, it’s a wonderful town.
It always does its full duty to the
things that have merit to them; it
never was a slacker even when it
might have been to its advantage to
have left undone the things it should
have done and when once her people
get the justice of a situation, once
they get thv right perspective in their
minds, they are going to come pretty
close to doing the square and the big
•thing!
That’s a whole lot to say about a
town!
But it is all the trutn. Of course
Brunswick has her bad side, like all
other modern cities; she has the in
dividual in her midst that never has
and never will measure up to the re
sponsibilities of good citizenship; she
has the sporadic case of the citizen
who is selfish and self-centered, who
does not aid in the common weal and
helps it in the great public work that
must be done.
| But he is scarce and he is growing
scarcer with each day!
I In the past month, Brunswick has
responded in rapid succession to
j drives by the Salvation Army, the lo
| cal Y. W. C. A., the Red Cross and
' the Board of Trade, and in each and
every case the response has been gen
erous, spontaneous and cheerful!
Our people have learned to give in
good grace to the things that are wor
thy and it is one of the golden lessons
of this old world of ours!
On the other side, Brunswick is do
ing other things on the material side
of her life. She is building new
schools for both races. She is btiild
jing good roads and streets in city and
| county, she is about to construct a
(great highway to St. Simon island,
i one of the broadest plans of improve
ment and development ever put for
ward by any people anywhere!
These are the things thatf Bruns
wick is doing besides encouraging a
better understanding between hey
people, bringing her business clement
and every other element of her citi
zenship into closer relations with each
other and resolving highly to develop
this beauty spot, which God gave us
for home!
Surely, Brunswick is a groat little
city!
FRIENDS OF THE UNITED
..j™*. STATES. I
Tim only available mofiev lender is
a man of great influence and this is
especially true if he is Known as
kindly and just. Undo Sam’s influ
ence is world-wide ami we are not
sure whether this money or his jus
tice is more to ba credited. But we
find everywhere efforts to propitate
the United States. It transpires that
the new Turkish government proposes
to imitate the example of the United
States as to prohibition though, the
[ use of intoxicants being forbidden in
the Koran, we did not know that
Turkey needs to use compulsion to
! keep its people .sober. But the an-
Inouncement that Turkey will follow
| our lead in this matter is given out ir.
| language highly complimentary to
| this country. Maybe the language is
entirely sincere or it may be that
I Turkey is a fellow that needs a friend
j and the United States is pretty husky.
! Egypt, which will send delegates
I to the Lausanne conference appealing
| for independence, also desires the help
: or at least the sympathy of the Unit
ed States. The head ef the Egyptian
delegation says he desires to develop
direct economic relations with the
United Stgtes and hopes America will
stand by Egypt in her demands for
freedom. Also he thinks that “all.na
tions seeking fulfillment of their as
pirations will look yearningly toward
the United States.”
All Americans who believe the
statement in the Declaration of Inde
pendence that all governments depend
for their just power on the consent of
the governed, or who believe in the
Wilson wording, of self determination,
must sympathize with any people fly
ing to throw off foreign control. Of
course with many Americans this
[would depend entirely on who was in
[control and who was trying to throw
lit off, for with many men principles
| give way to prejudice. But any peo
, pie struggling for independence is im
[ itating American example and is do
|ing the thing that our revolutionary
ancestors said was right. If it was
right. It it was right then it is right
now. If it was right for us it
light for others.
But a feeling of passive sympathy
is very different from one of active
assistance and Unde Sam has gone
out of the Don Quixote business. We
have done enough for others and it
i3,time for America now to do some
thing for? Americans. America is
doing something to Americans and
something. very disagreeable if sh'e
spends billions >• of dollars of th&r
money and sacrifices ten of thousands
,of their young men in espousing the
cause of others even when that cause
is right. The temper of the people
1 of this country is to be friendly with
all and entangled with none. If any
nation hopes for active, self sacrific
ing' assistance it will be apt to hope
in vain.
A WORD TO SHOPPERS.
In view of the approaching holiday
trade season for which Brunswick
merchants are well prepared, we de
sire a word wtih our friends who do
the shopping.
Did you ever stop to think:
That as a city booster you should
patronize the merchants of your own
home city.
That they have a reputation for
fair dealing and honesty.
That you will find their names in
The News advertising columns.
That their advertising tells you
only of the best merchandise and
where to buy it.
That if careful attention is paid to
the advertising, many people will find
it costs no more to live in comfort
than to “just get along.”
That real economy consists of
spending your money where you get
the best goods and the best prices for
your money. Read the advertise
ments.
That citizens who buy at home
show their loyalty. That they trans
late loyalty into deeds.
That they are the ones who keep
business moving.
That when business is kept moving
your city is prosperous. Keep yo.n
city prosperous.
That the merchant who gets ahead
has a forward vision and advertises.
That is why he gets ahead.
That a keen vision is a big business
asset.
That a dollar saved is a dollar earn- j
ed. j
That you should ?ead News adver- j
tisements. They are great money
savers.
A VICTORY THAT FADED AWAY
The claims of the liquorites follow
ing the recent general elections were
interesting, but what become of the
“great victories” these forces declar
ed they, had won? That’s the ques
tion.
Referring to the disappointment of
the “wets,” a Washington telegram
to the Christian Science Monitor says
in part:
“Just as the liquor interests are
plotting to extend their influence in
the presidential election of 192-1,
comes word from California today of
.a decisive victory "for the State pro
hibition enforcement act. Ending a
right, of ten years for the control of
the wet stronghold of the Pacific
coast, the surprising victory of the
prohibitionists has done more than
anything else to deflate the boasted
claims of the beer and wine forces in
their fight to dictate terms in the
next house of representatives.
“One by one the props are giving
, way under the wet claim of ‘a gain of
at least 80 seats in the lower branch
!of congress.’ As the check of returns
progresses, reliable information re-
I cesved by The Christian Science Mon-
I itor indicates the total wet vote in the
[ next house at about 135, compared
with 295 votes pledged to support the
Volstead act and the Eighteenth
amendment.”
The victory of the dfys in Califor
nia, where the Wright anti-bootleg
ging act carried by an overwhelming
majority, was regarded at the head
quarters of the Anti-Saloon League of
America in Washington as one of the
most important dry victories since tht
enactment of national prohibition. In
addition to defeating the wets in a
straightforward fight on the prohibi
tion code, says the Washington cor
respondent of the Monitor, “Califor
nia will be represented in the next
house by seven drys and four wets,
which shows no gain of liquor votes.
Combined with the remarkable dry
victory in Ohio, where the whole State
machinery is safely in the hands ol
the prohibitionists, including the wet
seat in the senate, the victories in
these two political strongholds has
put a decided crimp in the ambitions
of wet leaders.”
Wayne B. Wheeler, counsel for the
Anti-Saloon League, points to a les
son to be learned from the California
victory. “It shows in a state like Cal
ifornia with the odjjfe against us, that,
constant education'll the part of the
people will result in prohibition legis
lation and enforcement.”
The truth of the business is that
“wet victory” has almost dried up.
CONGRESS MEETS TOMORROW
A Washington special says that al
though President Harding’s call for a
special session of Congress declares
it is necessitated by “the public inter
ests,” this phrase may well be inter
preted “private interests,” seeing that
the particular purpose of the extra
session is to pass the Ship Subsid;,
MU-
Since President Mai'ding-insists up
on legislating the people’s' money into
the pockets of the 1 (“privateers” ‘be
hind the present ship bonus bill, it is
pertinent to study the price that will
have to he paid in taxes to provide

gesses. that are proposed for them.
The salient facts in thin connection
have been furnished by the Demo
cratic members of the House Commit
tee on Merchant Marine in a minority
report submitted last June.
This report shows that the govern
ment’s fleet built during the war and
now in the keeping of the U. S. Ship
ping Board cost the people $3,000,-
000,000. The Shipping Board would
be authorized by the passage of the
pending bill to sell these vessels for
$200,000,000 a loss to the taxpayers
of $2,800,000,000.
Having purchased the ships, the
new owners would have the opportun
ity and th<* disposition, in the opinion
of these Democratic members, to capi
talize them for something like their
true value and base their freight rates
on this higher valuation, so thsjt the
ucopie would suffer first from the
Shipping Trust’s reckless” inflation of
more millions. This wpuld be an ad
ditional loss and burden for the tax
prayers to bear for tSe aggrandize
ment of special interests.
Relief for Ihe people lies in the de
thronement of Republican rule at
Washington, and a “shake-up” is com
ing in 1924.

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies Are Using
Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur
Hair that loses its color and lustre,
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless, is caused by a lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her locks dark and beautiful,
and thousands of women and men who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade of hair which is sa at
tractive, use only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition of other
ingredients by asking at any drug store
for a bottlb of “Wyeth’s Sage and Sul
phur Compound,” which darkens the
hair so naturally, so evenly, that no
body can possibly tell it has been ap
plied. You just dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. By morning the gray
hair disappears; but what delights the
ladies with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur
Compound is that, besides beautifully
darkening the hair after a few applica
tions, it also brings back the gloss and
lustre and gives it an appearance of
abundance.
