It’s Ole Gene Again
You just can’t iret away from
It—Ole Gene from Sugar Creek
is a showman from way back.
Here’s an item that appeared in
an Atlanta daily paper concern^
lug last week’s Armistice Day
parade: '
Dignitary after dignitary
passed in ilag-bedecked or olive
drab automobiles as the Armiss
tice Day parade passed Five
Points, but Governor-elect Eu
gene Talmadge got the most
applause in the line of march,
hiking afoot at the head of the
American Legion division, sur
rounded by American flags.
According to the authorities,
Georgia this year has a great
abundance of quail and other
game, and the quail hunters and
their dogs took to the fields in
large numbers when the season
opened last week. More and
more the landowners of our
Slate are coming to realize that
the game in their fields and
woods ana die fish in their
streams is a cash crop of enor
mous potential value.
Protect your game. Don’t allow
promiscuous hunters and game
hogs to destroy it. Take care ol
it. Look after it, watch over it,
protect it. Your game will bring
you money. Up and down Geor
gia this doctrine has been
preached and it took hold and
grew and spread, until nowit
lias become the basic policy of
wild life conservation all over
the Southeast.
Holly Shipped East
Georgia grown holly again wil]
have its place among the Christ
mas decorations in the east
Word comes fiom Leesburg tl at
the first 1940 shipment moved
recently from a holly tree farm
in Lee County, of which W, M,
Van Cise is manager. A25 acre
tract was planted to these trees
13 years ago, but not until 1938
were any salse made. Only the
branches of the tiees are cut,
and shipments are made by train
or truck. Difficulty in making I
the trees bear berries is the i
main problem in holly produc-!
lieu, Mr. Van Cise said. So far,
the product has found a ready
market in the east and else
where.
The Alma Times confides: “If
there is anything that the United
States can do that Hitler won't,
like, we are for it.’’ The Sowega I
Standard gives this reminder:!
“Plenty of canned foods help cut j
down living costs during the
winter”. The Sparks Eagle re
veals: “A philosopher is a fellow
who kids himself into thinking
it is a blessing to be poor". The
Darien Gazette makes this timely ,
remark: “Many a man who has
been wrapped up in politics, has
lost his shirt". The Covington
News discovers: “There is a
place for every thing except a
husband when his wife is giving
a missionary tea". The Pelham ,
Journal says: “A professional I
beggar who grumbles about
small coins dropped in his hat
should not ba permitted to ply
his trade". The Summerville
News gives this bit of encourage
ment: “Here’s one thing you
needn’t worry about—the end of
the world.”
