It will go down now in ' history as
Senator Felton!
If there is any thins radically
wrong with Waycross, it certainly
ought to be cured this week. She has
had the doctors, the dentists and the
Preachers with her!
The whole country will, tender
sympathy to the unfortunate wives
and orphans caused by the terrible
mine explosion near Birmingham.
Ala., yesterday in which nearly one
hundred miners lost their lives.
In seating Mr*. Felton, the whole
United States Senate has done a
graceful act of gallantry which is
bound ,to win the approval of the peo
ple of the United States.
The business men of Brunswick
have a real treat in store for them
on December 6th, w r hen the local
chapter D. A. R. is to serve an old
fashioned Georgia products dinner. !
Whenever iGovornhr Hardwick is
feeling all out of sorts, when his di
gestive organs refuse to function
just right he takes a crack at the Ku
Klux Klan.
Clemenceau is to visit Woodrow
Wilson in a few days. If that pair
were so inclined they could certainly
have some timeof it, reviewing the
parts they played in the making of
the treaty of Versailles.
We are wondering where Tom Loy
less will land next. He has been en
gaged in newspaper work in Macon.
Atlanta, Augusta and Columbus and
in all of these cities his work has
been brilliant and forceful.
Dr. Frank B. Atkinson has been
elected to the office of vice president
of the Eleventh District Dental So
ciety. About the youngest member
of the society, his selection conies in
the nature of a compliment.
The Harding message on the ship
subsidy bill is rather pathetic. It
comes pretty near being a personal
plea to his own party in congress to
Stand by him in the crucial moment
of his administration.
Our friend B. J. Ford has no rea
son to be ashamed of the vote he
Polled in the primary of Tuesday. He
had no organization and the vote he
received was a distinct compliment
to him.
The “Tiger of France” says there
is a strong German spirit at work
right now preparing for another war.
He believes that at the moment, the
world is confronted with its greatest
crisis.
Naughty Senator Capper. Before
the ship subsidy measure of Presi
dent Harding has left its safe an
chorage in the White House, for its
tempestuous voyage up Pennsylvania
avenue and into the stormy senate,
Capper is putting derelicts in its way!
Information comes from the pro
gressive people of Brantley county
to the effect that a large tobacco
warehouse is to be built at Hoboken.
That tobacco can be grown all over
south Georgia has been demonstrated
and that it in a great money crop,
there is no sort of a- question.
Each month the city of Brunswick
publishes statements of city finan
ces. Would not be a good plan
h>r the bounty commissioners to do
Waycro.ssthe tax payers are clamor
ing for statements of the disposition
of public revenues. Let’s give no
occasion for such a condition in
Brunswick or in Glynn county.
KNIGHTHOOD IS IN FLOWER 1
AGAIN!
Real knighthood was in flower
again in Washington this week, when
gallant senators, members of the
greatest and most deliberative body
on earth halted in their "busy work
and paid distinction and homage to
women. Say what you will, but in
these prosaic days, it is refreshing to
discover that man has lost none of
that chivalry of old, which always
has and always will find its best ex
pression when women is to be exalt
ed; when she is to be placed on a
glorious and hallowed pinnacle and
when man again bows in knightly
honor at her shrine.
The seating of Mrs. Felton in the
Senate of the United States, a few
days after a bitter political and Par
tisan contest between the two great
I political Parties when a mere objec
tion offered by any one of the ninety
five members of the senate, would
have made it impossible, was a court
ly act on the part of the members
of the- United States senate, that
shines out in radiance all its own
: and shouts to the world that after all.
man has not changed very much in
all of these ages ; that he still reveres
j and delights to honor the name of
woman; that down deep in his heart
j there still l-eniains that inherent love
; of her and even, in the midst of bit
i ter turmoil and political strife, he
I delights in the opportunity to do
obesience to her and to crown her
j with a diadem of honors and a hale
of respect and tender devotion!
! And in this signal honor that has
j come to women in general—now that
| she has filled legally and quite prop
; erly one of the greatest offices in the
, world. Georgia and Georgia’s grand
I old lady, win a coveted distinction,
i The name of Mrs W. H. Felton will
i be Written high up in the scroll of
j time; it will occupy a gelden Place in
the history of the nation, when the
march of womankind into the high
official station in this condition, in
that it fell to her happy, lot, to pro
vide the United States with its first
woman senator! In the present, the,
distinction does not seem so great,
but to the historian of the future, it
will loom up as a magnificent prece
dent for the empire state of the
South.
Two other distinguished Georgians
played their Parts in this intensely
interesting human drama, Senators
Walter F. George, Who valiantly
yielded his seat to the sweet old lady
of the “lavendar and old 'gold” and
Senator William J. Harris, who
staged Iflie affair and aided in its
happy culmination in every conceiv
able fashion. They won new plau
dits and a great nation joins in ac
claiming them for their splendid and
their chivalrous spirit!
ONE DECENT PUBLIC ACT. \
It is now ex-Senator Truman H.
Newberry, of Michigan, for Newber
ry has resigned. This- si decidedly
the most decent thing that gentleman
has done since he assumed the sena
torship from Michigan. The pressure
was so great even for the thick
skinned Michigander to withstand.
When he heard the voice of the peo
ple of his home state as expressed
in the recent national election; when
Ms close friend and supporter, Sena
tor Townsend, was defeated, New
berry decided to lfeed that warning,
particularly when it seemed perfect
ly apparent that if he did not resign,
his seat woudl be declared vacant
shortly after the meeting of Con
gress.
The enforced resignation of New
berry is a vindication of the purity of
American politics and a distinct con
demnation of the use of money in
controlling the election of United
States senators, which office, next to
j that of President, is the most impor
tant in the land. It may be some time
I before another candidate for United
States senator will openly and boldly
violate the laws governing corrupt
practices in elections.
Of course, Mr. Newberry attempts !
to defend himself before the public.
He Publishes a statement which dif-1
fers radically on the facts from any- '
thing we have ever heard in connec
tion with the case. This is perhaps
to satisfy himself and his own con
science, and if it satisfies him, the
public doesn't care. The main thing
the People were interested in was to
get rid of Newberry and thereby
clarify a political atmosphere which
had been clouded ever siqce Mr. New
berry had himself elected to the sen
ate, and then apparently “got away
with it.”
It ia vitally important that the
'election of a United States senator
should be free from the use of money
or other corrupting influences. It is
an office of too great importance to
the people to be tainted bytiif slrttht
cst corrupting'lnfluence. The senate
bears a relation to the government
that is tremendously influential and
the interests of the People demand
.that it be controlled by none but hon
orable and elevating influences.
We are gltpl that Newberry has re
signed. It solved an awbw*rd and
embarrassing situation and relieved
the senate of a delicate duty.
PICTURESQUE MUSSOLINI
What sort of a personality and
what sort af a past has. this suddenly
famous Mussolini, premier of Italy
and Fascist! leader?
It was in a village of the pro
i vince of Forli that he was born niuc
and thirty years ago, of lowly par
; entage. His father, a blacksmith,
forsook anvail and forge to preach so
; cialism. The son was keenly inter
! ested, even as a lad, in the Political
ifigures and conflicts of the little
i stage about him, but he was not
thereby diverted from another strong
■ bent—his intellectual curiosity. It
was Probably to gratify a thirst foi
knowledge that he entered the munic
ipal school for teachers, won Va di
ploma, tnd turned pedagogue. In this
profession his career was brief. One
day he disappeared and not until
; months later did hi sfriends at home
hear that he was wandering over Eu
rope, says the Atlanta Journal.
Odd jobs ,odd meals, odd beds were
his lot. In Switzerland, as the story
goes Jie was at divers times a rail
way porter, a weaver, a laborer in
the fields; yet every hour that could
be snatched from bread-winning he
spent at tlie libraries, and later he
attended university lectures. “But,”
writes his biographer, Guy Mouner
eau, “Mussolini was too exuberant to
be prudent; he always wanted to pro
claim his ideas, and, worse still, to
Put them into action.” No wonder
that he was expelled from Switzer
and, which is free enough to be eon
servative.
In those days none but a seventh
son of a prophet would have ven
tured to predict that this revolution
ary socialist would turn out an ardent
nationalist, a defender of tradition
against radicalism. The conversion
seems to have come in a clap. In
1912 he was in an Italian prison,
hewing sentence for “subversive
ropagamla,” and employing hit
leisure to write a life of John Huss.
In the spring and summer of 1914
he was still a flaming revolutionist.
But a twelvemonth later he was
marching away to war as a volun
teer, to suffer hardships and griev
ous wounds for his country, to win
promotion from the ranks to a place
of command, and to return as an im
placable foe of Bolshevism, a flam
ing conservative. He founded at Mi
lan the “Popolo D’ltalia” as a news
paper medium for his new ideals;
and it was not long ere he stood in
the forefront of the nation’s journal
ism.
His leadership of the Fascisti turn
ed at length to direct action against
the existing government, or, as
Americans would say, against the ad
ministration. J “A government that
shall govern” was his slogan; and
now that he is Premier, he is thus far
keeping faith. His soldiers, as the
correspondents write, “march before
the Quirinal and cheer for the king,”
while Mussolini grapples with the
problems c 5 finance and of social! re
construction which must be solved if
his government is to keep on govern
ing.
Will his ardor prove equal to those
coldly realistic tasks? Only the
future can tell. The man of surprises
may yet win where he appears Pre
destined by temperament to •failure.
In the biography to which we have
alluded, this picture, among many
others', is highly interesting for the
personality it portrays: “One of j
Mussolini’s friends who is with me |
while I am writing these lines, told i
me that the moment when the strug- '
gle aganist the old government was
at its crisis a deputy telephoned him
from Rome to the office of the ‘‘Popo .
D’ltalia” at Milan. Mussolini re-1
mained .altogether calm. He was told
that the state of siege was removed ;
(which meant that he had won.) He
listened without twinging a muscle of
his face. It was late. Not having
tasted food that day, he took a fru
gal meal. Then turning to his lieu
tenants he asked for his violin.” And
while the Fascisti troops kept guard
at the door to beat back any onset
of Bolshevists or other foes, Mussp
lini played in rapt forgetfulness of
the world.
The Posture is not without its un
happy historic parallel; but evident
ly there is a better heart as well as a
stronger hand behind this patriot fid
dler than ever the sort of Agrippina
knew. Home, Moreover, is not burn
ing; but is in a cooler and more pois
ed state of mind than it has known
for many a day.

The major at n certain recruit

The buck gazed with respectful
awe at the string- of campaign rib

“Gosh!” he rqnarked, “you must
be a old timer."
‘Yes,” answered the major pleas
antly. “I am.” 1
“Say,” began the buck cordial!’;
ir. a whisper, “ do you ever drill.,
anything?”
The major was truthful as weu

in a while he took a small nip. and
then turned away, as his new found
acquaintance was proving embar

“Wait,” said the hospitable,

There is one fact women should con
sider and that is this. Women suffer from
irregularities and various forms of weak
ness. They try this and that doctor, ss
well as different medicines. Finally they
take Lydia E. Pinkham’s Compound,
and Mrs. Sherman’s experience is simply
another case showing the merit of this
well-known medicine.
If your family physician fails to help
you and the same old troubles persist,
why isn’t it reasonable to try Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound?
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 so 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 bot.tle of “Wyeth’s Sage and Sul
phur Compound,” which darkens the
hair so naturally, so evenly, that no
body wan 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.
