co-EDUcATIoN-A QUESTION.

Among the questions before the
present legislature, that OF co-educa-
ton in the state university is BY no
means the most inconsidera The
matter has awakened general interest
throughout the state, and the press ID
beginning to TEEN with discussions.
The favorable report of the house
committee on the bill is taken as an
indication that 1t will have a strong
support in the general assembly. This
presumption, however, is not safe
one. 1t Is the opinion of THE TIMES
that the plan will meet some of the
most violent opposition ever directed
against a measure.
The spirit of the south is against
co-education. 1t is a step toward the
lowering of that high standard Of
womanhood which has been set up for
US in this section by our forefathsrs,
and that has made the name of the
southern woman everywhere the syn
onym of charming grace, of high Gull
ture and of unblemished chastity. We
cannot, at this late day, consent to in
stitute a condition that we have been
taught to avoid as dangerous and de-
rogatory to the pride and boast of the
sOuth-our women.
Well says the Athens Banner:
The idea originated not in our God
blessed southland but came from the
land Of Puritanism, from that region
where women are regarded more for
their domestic utility than for their
adjournment to society, more for their
usefulness as housewives than COM
panlons in literary and social circles.
Such being the fate of the unfortunate
women W lose lots have cast them as
submissive subjects to the utiitarian
and mercenary ideas of their incons aid
crate benedicts, they have as an es-
cape from such female thraldom cried
out for equal show and equal chance
with the lords of their land.
We submit that no greater calamity
could befall both the male and tbs fe.
male citizenship of our country than
the Introduction of any system of ed
ucatlon or any other system relative
to the relations between the sexes
which will tend to estraOge our sons
and daughters from that high order
of refined sentiment and distinctive
civilization for which our southern
country has ever been distinguished

SOMETHING NEW.
A Contract Which Has LOng Been Needed,
Now On the Market.

The Phoenix Mutual is always try
ing to offer the very best contract for
the least outlay, and in It's latest en-
deav0r has issued new and most
unique contract which is attracting q
great deal of attention. Many young
men are DESTROYS of securing life or
endowment insurance policy which
shall be paid up in twenty years IN
order that the premiums may be paid
during their early years, and are I'M
willing to take upon themselves con-
tract calling for premiums to be paid
during life. TO such a man, who de-
sires either twenty premium life
policy or twenty year endowment
policy but is unable TO carry as large
an amount of insurance as he would
like under this form Of policy, the
Phoenix is prepared TO issue a low
premium policy containing one usual
Observation-Disclosures, cash value,
paid-up and loan options, with the
added guarantee that at the end of
five years the company will change
this policy to regular twenty pre-
MUM life or twenty year endowment,
dating the contract back to tie date
of the original policy, thus giving the
insured the benefit of the younger age
and lower premium, on payment by
the insured of the difference in the
premiums under the two policies dur
ing the first five years with but per
cent interest, and in addition offering
to loan this full amount to the insured
In case he does not have the ready
oash sufficient to make this change.
Should the insured at the end of five
years find that he Is unable to assume
a policy calling for higher premium,
the company will continue the origi-
nal contract at the low premium dur
ing the life time of the insured, who
will thus be able to retain Insurance
which ne will find In every particu-
lar most satisfactory.
Could any policy offered to young
men be more advantageous than this
ExchangeabIe Life Policy of the
Phoenix?
The company has also issued con-
tract which can be attached to any of
the ordinary forms of insurance, which
contract, at very low premium, guar
antees that the insured Will live dur
ing the period chosen, or il he does
not live, that the company will, in ad-
dltiOn to paying bis policy in full, re-
turn to the beneficiary under the con-
tract all the premiums that have been
paid on the contract.
The annual dividends of the Phoenix
which are paid in cash each year
makes their contracts the best IN the
world. Call or address j. b. Abrams

The HoME-RuYER.

The man who makes his money at
home and spends it abroad isan ensmy
to his community. This truth has
been so often established by proof that
1t has become automatic. The doctrine
Of home industries is one Of the MAIN
stays of development. without its
practice, no progress can be expected.
The business policy of the China
man, who accumulaUes, In this coun-
try, a considerable hoard, which he
expends in his distant native land, is
no worse than that of the citizen who
earns his competency from the pat
rOnage of home people and sends to
other cities for those things which are
necessary &c his existence.
The TIMES insists that the Bruins.
wickian can supply all his ordinary
wants, right at home, from the we'll
assorted stocks of those merchants
who are represented in the columns
of this paper. II you cannot get what
you want here, the objection, of
course, ceases to hold good--but, if
you can, you are an enemy of your
town when you send else " here for 1T.
The TIMES oommends It's advertisers
to the people of Brunswick. They
are the reliable business enterprises
of the town, and they will always
treat you right. You can pin your
faith to the man who advertises. He
makes his offers to you in the public
prints, and he is not ashamed of his
business. The merchant who doesn's
advertise needs watching.

HOW TO KILL YOUR TOWN.

Try talking it down. Say all man.
ner of evil against it. Abuse the peo-
pie, the business and the entire man.
aRement from the mayor clean down
to the humble nightwatch. Let moth
ing or no one escape your holy wrath.
If this don't fetch it, then just spend
all your money with some other peo-
Pile. Don't spend any at home. Send
off after everything that you buy.
Don't patronlze anything or any kind
of business that is carried on in your
town, but be everlastingly running
around with full hand and a good
word for some other town. Ii you
are church member have your mem
hership somewhere else. Don't take
any interest in the church at home.
Be at outs with everyone, especially
those who would do right and are max
ing an honest effort to get along. Be
selfish. Be envious at the prosperity
of others, and hate them because they
have been more successful than you.
DO this and if you don't kill your
town you will have the satisfaction of
knowing that you did your BEST
North Georgia Citizen.
Yes, and continually criticise your
home paper because it isn't as good as
those in city of five times the popu-
lation.

A College Training.

Home from college came the stripping, calm
and cool and debonair,
With weird array of raiment and wondrors
wealth of hair,
With lazy love of languor and a healthy hate
of work
And cigarette devotion that would share
the turbaned Turk
And he called his father "guv'nor," with a
cheek serene and rude,
While that raging, wrathful rustic called b;s
son "blasted dude"
And in dark and direful language muttered
threats of coming harm
To the idle, shif'less critter' from his f,-
theirs good right arm.
And the trouble reached a climax on the lawn
behind the shed.
Now I'm goin ter lick YER sonny" so the
sturdy parent said,
And III knock the college nonsense lsorl
your noddle mighty quick"
Then he lit upon that chappy like wagon
load Of brick.
But the youth serenely murmured as he grip.
ped his angry dad
you're clever rusher, guv'nor but Won
tackle very bad"
And he rushed him through the center. AMI
he tripped him for fall
And he scored goal and touchdown with his
papa as the ball
Then cigarette he lighted as he slowly
strolled away.
Saying, "That was jolly, guv'nor; now Wen
practice every day."
While his father from the puddle, where he
wallowed in disgrace
smiled upon his offspring proudly from %
bruised and battered face,
And, with difficulty rising quick he hobbled
to the house
"Henry's all right, ma" he shouted to his
anxious, waiting spouse
HE Jest licked me good and solid, and tel
yer, Mary Ann,
When chap kin lick your husband he's :,

SUNDAY THOUGHTS.
cannon Farrar.I


Charity is the one sovereign remedy
and antidote for the heinous transgres-
sion of bearing false Witness" ipjur-
ing our neiGhbors with false tongues.
If you would see detracti0n in all it's
leprous ugliness, contrast it with the
sovereign beauty, the heavenly lustre
of charity as 81. Paul depicts it to the
Corinthians. Look on that picture-so
soft, SO radiant, so angellically win
ming, so bathed in airs of heaven, go
full of enchanting colors; and then
look at this picture of calumny, so
foul and noisome, so weltering with
the venom of every base passion. so
lurid with the light of hell, which
speaks and can speak no language but
that of the devil, whose very name
means SANDER. Consider those two
pictures, and lest you sink into this
devilish spirit, lay aside all malice,
guile, Hypocrisy and all evil speaking.
We should all perhaps feel sense of
deeper responsibility if wet re in mind

thou shalt be Justified, and by thy
words thou shalt be condemned"

Bishop Phillips Brooks.l

Be profoundly honest. Never dare
to say through ardent excitement or
conformity to what you know you are
expected to say, one word which at
the moment when you say it, you do
not believe. 1t would cut down the
range of what you say, perhaps, but
1t would endow every word that was
left with the force of ten.
