A., B. & A. MAKING BETTER
SHOWING
This section of tiie country has a
profound interest in the Atlanta. Bir;
mingham & Atlantic railroad. The
whole south was interested in the
line a few months ago, when there
was some serious talk of junking it
and especially was that interest man
ifested in Georgia. On the line of
the road and in other sections not
traversed by its' rails, movements
were organized to come to the aid of
! the company in some fashion and to
prevent at all hazards, its being
junked.
Now, however, comes; the cheer
ful information that things are work
ing better with the A.. B. & A. and
that the company is actually earning
some net revenues on its operation.
Surely this is a most satisfactory
and a most satisfying state of. af
fairs and it will be received with gen- i
uine pleasure all over the country.
The A., B. & A. is one of the !
Southern trunk lines that has had a j
very hard row to hoe; it has been j
tlirough many trying ordeals and
| many of its troubles were thrust pp
oti it and was in no way chargeable
to its management. However, the
fact tl;a tit is weathering the storm
comes in the nature of a great com
pliment to the splendid ability of Re
ceiver Bugg and his able and effi
cient corps of officials, who have
stood to the rack through thick and
thin.
The following extracts from the
ThomasviUe Time-Enterprise and the
Cordele Dispatch, will serve to indi
cate how the feelings towards the
line is in these cities:
Whatever lias become of the
former proposal to junk, the A., !
3. & A. because it wasn't earn
ing any money? Look at the
trains and Perhaps you can find
out.—ThomasviUe Times-Enter
prisc.
Business People all along the
line of the A., B. & A. and all
over Georgia will be gratified to
know that the road has actually
earned more money in the past
few months than n took to oper
ate it. We know this is the truth
and we want those-who have been
so deeply concerned about the A.
B. & A. to know the good news.
We believe that the people of
the entire state will be deeply in
terested in the improvements
that have been made in the finan
cial conditions of the line. The
A., B. & A. tyifl take care of it
self in future if those excellent
business men who are now in
charge of it, are Permitted to go
on uninterrupted with the ser
vice they are giving.
There never was a larger piece
of foolishness in the heads of
Georgians than the effort made
by some of them to form ;.n or
ganiation to save the A., B. &
A. from the junk pile. All they
had to do was to form an or
ganization to see that it was let
alone and allowed to proceed in
regular manner with its busi
ness. I
We are glad such a statement
as is now being made about the
A., B. & A. is possible. We be
lieve it will make its own way
in future, for if is building bus
iness that will mean a steady
income—and no doubt created
when it had to cope with its
strikes is practically done away.
Much of its business volume was
knocked out. This 1 is coming
back and will mean safety and
business security.—Cordele Dis
patch. '
! STRIVING TO AID THE FARMERS
! Georgia farmers have, S champion
in U. S. Senator William J. Harris.
A legislative Program of five bills
aimed at relief for agriculture in va
rious ways, all introduced by the sen
ior Georgia senator, and now Pending
in the House, will be urged during
the coming session of Congress, ac
cording to news from Washington.
All of the measures have passed
the Senate and Senator Harris is at
work in efforts to get approval in
the Lower House before the 67th
Congress ends next March. Follow
ing is a list of the bills;
Amendment to the Federal Re
serve law so as to permit small
State’ banks with a capital of
less.than $25,000 to join the Fed
eral Reserve System.
Bill directing the Department
of Commerce to make a world
survey and census, of cotton on
• JuJy 31st of each year.
Bill to broaden the Federal
warehouse act by eighf amend
ments.
’Dill directing the Bureau of
Crop Estimates to .publish their, .
esUtfiatps at the same tiriie 'as
the ginning figures, of the Cen
sus Bureau so as to get compar
ative information covering the
- same Periods.
Bill requiring the Census Bu
reau to collect statistics from
their ginning agents of the esti
mated amount of cotton remain
ing to be gitihed at the same
time they gather figures, on the
amount actually ginned!
AH of these measures are intend
ed to better the interest? of the farm
er, ami their enactment will mean
much for the development and ad
vancement of agriculture in Georgia
and throughout the Southland. As
is known, the legislation to let small
State banks enter the Federal Re
-1 serve System is a part of the PlO
- gram of the American Farm Bureau
Federation urged upon the agricul
tural “bloc." It will make it possible
for the small banks to secure greater
advances and the support of the
strength of the Federal Reserve Sys
tern. Congressman Gordon Lee, and!
Georgia, introduced a similar bill ir.
the House, but it is likely that the
Senate bill will be considered in an
effort to save time.
The bill providing a worid census
of cotton has the support of the
American Cotton, Association, Secre
tary Hoover and many cotton grow
ers, both large and small, as Sena
tor Harris contends a report of the
actual amount of cotton in the world
wail show a shortage which will hell'
the Price now depressed because of
uncertain data, and the other bills
are full of merit.
Senator Harris, who is an active ]
member of the agricultural “bloc,’”
which is busy at ai itimes in behalf
of the planter, is in reality the farm- j
er’s friend.
BABE RUTH AND THE WATER
WAGON
The reason for Babe Ruth's poor
showing, compared with his past per
formances, during the baseball
son that Has just gone, is, in large j
measure, explained by the informa- ,
tion that the Bambino has been look-'
ing too much, upon the wine when it
was red. A hero for two years, Ruth
lost favor with fandom and the Pub-
Hc generally in the Past season, not
only by reason of his failure to clout j
home runs (with the regularity of
yore but because of his fits of sulki- J
ness and displays of temper. Un
doubtedly, the knowledge that he was!
toppling from the pedestal oif public j
favor embittered him and led him to j
increase his drinking, which, of
course, reflected itself in his playing, j
But the Babe has seen the error of i
his way, in Part, at least, and prom-1
ises to “cut the b>ooze’’(as he, him-1
self, would express it) for a year, as j
we learn by the following from the:
New York Telegraph:
Babe Ruth, superman in base
ball. has gone on the water wag
on and hinnelf makes the an
nouncement. In the last world’s
series Ruth was rather a pitiful
figure. Relied upon by patrons
of the game and his colleagues
on the Yankee team to do the
best batting of the contests, he
made two hits and was outclass
ed by all the other regulars.
Ruth owns a farm up in Massa
chusetts and left for it the other
day, there to abide for the win
ter. Before going, several friends
of the athlete gave a dinner to
him, and Senator Walker made a
speech., giving Ruth some good
advice. The Senator tolVl Ruth
that the Public had elevated him
to his high position in the Amer
ican League and the public would
be quick to drop him if he did
not make giood from mow on.
iluth, in reply, said he would ex
ercise on his farm all winter and
report in good condition, and
pledged himself to turn in at
least sixty home runs next year.
Then taking up a glass of Kquor
which was in front of him, the
ball Player said; “That is the last
drink I will take between now
and the middle of October next
year.” He should have ended
the sentence with the word
“take", pledging himself for his
own good and for the good of
baseball: to become a total ab
stainer. An athlete who drinks
hard liquors is not playing fair
with the Public or his employers.
None of them should ever drink.
Aad another matter, it is against
the law to buy or sell liquor; if
Ruth jumps off the water wagon
“The middle of next October” he
niust % procure his strong drink
unlawfully. Let him bear that in
mind, and also let him remember
that his popularity depends on
sobriety and right living and
Playing good baseball. If he fails
in any respect the fans will let
him know..
Ruth can come back, if he will. 1
j The baseball public will be just as
ready as, before to idolize him. Ifrt.
; lie is not going to comb back unless
he lets liqdor alone. Leave aside al!
the moral aspects of the case, and
the fact remains that whiskey ana
efficiency simply do not got together,
on the athletic field, in the busyness
world, or behind the desk. \
GOOD MORMNB
I One day the cashier of a bank
said to an old customer, “The board
of directors at their last meeting
decided that they would no longer
renew your note.” j
“That's going to Ip exceedingly
embarrassing,” replied the cus
tomer, “because this note has been
in the bank now about twenty-five
years.”
“Well,” responded the cashier,
"the directors are not going to
turn you down, exactly. They
have decided they • can no longer
discount your note, but they are
going to charge you storage for
it.”
Marjorie and Eddie had both beer
told lhat they must write letters of
thanks for the outsi'de Christmas
gifts tlipy had received. Marjori6
sat down and quickly' wrote:
“Thank you so much for the
fountain pen. It’s what I’ve al
ways needed.”
Meanwhile Eddie was chewing
the end of hi3 penholder for in
spiration. As his sister laid aside
her first letter, lie surreptitiously
glanced at it. Then he wrote: ’
“Thank yen so much for the
handkerchiefs;. Thcy'r? what I’ve
always needed.” —Ladies’ Home

Drink Water If
Kidneys Hurt
Take a tablespoonful of Salts' if
Back pain3 or Bladder
bothers.
Too much meat may produce uric
acid, says a Aell-known authority, who
warns us to be constantly on guard
against kidney trouble.
The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood of this irritating acid, but
become weak from the overwork; they
get sluggish; the eliminative tissues
clog and thus the waste is retained in
the blood to poison the entire system.
When your kidneys ache and feel
like lumps of lead, and you have sting
ing pains in the hack, or the urine is
cloudy, full of sediment, or the bladder
is irritable, obliging you to seek relief
during the night: when you have severe
headaches, nervous and dizzy spells,
sleeplessness, acid stomach or rheuma
tism in bad weather, get from your
pharmacist about four ounces of Jad
Salts, take a tabiespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast each morning,
and in a few days your kidneys may
act fine. This famous salts A made
from the acid of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush and stimulate
clogged’kidqgvs, lo help neutralize the
acjils in. uhiTne so it 4s no longer a.j
sou&e of irritation, thus often ending
urinary arid bladder-disorders.
Jad Sajts JsJtiexpensiVe and can not
injure: makes a delightful effervescent
lithia water drink-.-and nobody can make,
a mistake by taking a little occasionally
to help to keep the -kidneys clean and
active. Drink plenty of tester at all
times.
