FOREIGN IMMIGRATION CURSE.

A great deal is being said just now,
especially in Georgia, about foreign
immigration for. the south. THE NEWS
is OF the opinion that the south has
been extremely fortunate in escaping
the foreign scum that is annually emp
tied into the United States. The north
is beginning to groan under its bur-
den, and, whereas the emigrants were
warmly welcomed there few years
since, they are now most unwelcome
citizens. In this connection the Phil
adelphia Ledger says
During the year ending June 30,
1905, approximately 100000 aliens
arrived in the United States, as
against ST., $40 in the preceding twelve
months and $751; 046 in 1923. Now,
the chief trouble is that this great
horde of newcomers do not 60 to the
fields, mines and manufacturing cen
tiers of the south and west, where they
are needed, but remain in the more
densely populated sections OF the coun-
try, displacing other labor ana IN
creasing the intensity of the Industrial
competition. In the year l9O0-f New
York received more than a quarter Of
million of the immigrants; Pennsyl-
vania 1916, ATS; New Jersey Al, 47O, and
other states in the east and near west
similarly large numbers. Sixty-four
per cent of the whole number were
bound for New York, Pennsylvania,
Illinois and Massachusetts. Aside
from the social sores created by this
large annual influx, and the dangers
to the communities into which they
are thus forced, the character OF en-
ployment which absorbs these people
almost inevitably precludes any adj
vance in the scale of living. They
are doomed to unsanitary and degrad-
ed lives and to radical isolation,
which is a growing danger to the ma
tional well-beipg."

ARE WE GETTING TOO SMART?

Some idea of the worlds progress
NAV be gathered from the fact that
during the past year 10000 patents
have been granted to American invent
ors. Each of these patents represents
some useful or ingenious device where
by the general comfort or convenience
of mankind is promoted. The inven-
tions which are designed to increase
facilities for transportation lead all
others, indicating that notwithstand-
ing the high stage of perfection reach
ed by the modern railroad another
half century of progress will make
railway travel of today a Renaissance
of comparative crudity and discom-
fort. The automobile is receiving a
full share of the inventors talent, and
it will be so perfected and cheapened
that the child of today will, by the
time he arrives atman's estate, regard
the horseless carriage as one of the
ordinary and inexpensive utilities of
everyday life.
In every phase of life-every indus
try, every Observation-Disclosures ingenui-
by is busy striving after Improvement,
reaching forth for perfection. Life is
vastly easier than in the days of our
fathers; and yet it is lacking in much
of that simplicity which lent to the old
days a wholesOmeneSs ard charm our
effete civilization does not supply. In
fact, lie in this strenuous age is a
very complicated thing. There are so
many buttons to push, so many live
wires to dodge, so much to see and to
do and to learn, that from the time we
are ushered into this world by the
most improved scientific process until
we are lowered into our graves by the
latest patent device for the purpose we
have very little time to get close to
nature, or to study natural things.
But there is always this thought: As
we are now so were our fathers centu-
ries ago, until some great cataclysm
or CONFUSION OF nature landed them
back to the life of first principles and
they began the reaching out for better
things, which has brought US to our
present advanced stage of civilization.
And some day, when we have gone the
limit, nature will assert herself and
with shrug of the shoulder put us
back to the foot of the class again.
And, starting once more from the
breech-cIout and the bark canoe, we
will commence the slow and toilsOme
ascent from primitive conditions to
the day of the automobile and the
wireless telegraph-and the patent Of
fee grinding out inventions at the
rate of 40, 900 year!

MOTHERS BIBLE.

Fortune never smiled in passing,
Other hearts and other hands
Felt the warmth of her caresses,
Golden treasures, fertile lands,
All alone and hopeless, drifting,
Overwhelmed with golden tide,
Ebbing, ebbing, never staying,
Even health itself denied.
Few the Jewels in the casket,
Garnered treasures of the years,
Many sorrows half forgotten,
Many half remembered tears.
I've treasure once forgotten,
Buried meath the spectred gold,
Brighter grows is ragged edges
Dearest mothers Bible old.
Father, if my way is rugged,
Danger threatened, trials, loss,
Let its lessons teach me patience,
Jesus bravely bore His cross,
And if tears shall be my portion,
Father, let my heart accept
Sorrows, if my Lord would chasten,
When | read that "Jesus Wept. "
Init pages roses blossom
Softened sunlight, smiling rain,
Meadow viOletS are blooming,
Garnered sheaves of golden grain,
Wine and oil for wearied tOilers,
Balm for hearts that bleed and
break,
Daily bread for those that labor,
TOiling on for Jesus sake.
Often, often sadly dreaming.
Weighted down with calling care,
Comes my mothers picture-seated
In her coy cushioned chair,
Turning pages, slowly searching
Through its faded tattered leaves,
Till at last the message greets her:
WhOmsoever hears believes.
Turns aside from sin, and, faithful,
Bids his Savior come abide
In his heart and keep and clean it,
[ will never cast aside
Even though the world way buffet
To the shadow of the cross
WhosOever comes for shelter
He shall never suffer loss.
Other hands have won their treas
ureS,
Fame and friends and golden ease,
But my only treasure never
Would I give for all of these.
Faded where her hands have thumb
ed it,
Yellowed now with time and dim,
Still it says that Christ will save me
If | only trust in Him.

MORE ROMANCE SCATTERED.
From the Griffin News.
Remember that old poem;


Remember that old poem:
Now doth the busy bee
Improve each shining hour.
You had it drummed into you every
time YOU wanted to go fishing or play
ball. or cool your young body IN the
deptbs of the old swimming hole. You
GOT so YOU hated anything that looked
like bee, for it made you think OF
perpetual work, and you swOre that
when YOU grew up nobody should be
allowed to repeat that poem and there
should be a law preventing boys from
working during the summer vacation.
The bee has been indicated. 1t is
almost human in its shortening, and
the person who wrote that nonsense
simply didn't know his business.
The average bee does not improve
each shining hour. He labors perhaps
more than union hours in summer, but
that is probably because he has not
learned of the Joy of the eight hour
day. -
knows about bees, says that they rest
winters, just like brick-layers or lake
sailors. Not only that, but he asserts
that the big bees and the little bees can
be found drunk in the vineyards.
They sip the juice of the burst grapes
until thew are full, and fall to the
ground and sleep off their debauch.
They even know enough not to 90
home while intoxicated.
And so away goes the last Vestlge
of the romance that was supposed to
attach to the bee hive.

From the Fort Gaines Sentinel.
1t continues to be whispered around
that the second congressional district
is to have two candidates in the field
for representative next year, and that
one of them mot republican, is to

THE bitterness resulting from the
election last week in this county ought
to die out. Life is too short for one
to harbor animosity," says the Cuth-

should there be bitterness among
neighbors and friends? That is the
worst feature of campaign such as

THE GAL IN THE BUKRA YARD"

THE gal IN THE BUKRA YARD"
From the Charlotte Observer.
In Fridays paper we copied the
following threnody described by "a
southern woman" who sent it from
Greenville, S. c., to the Sun, as lone
of the most popular of African songs"
WhaU is de use for to wuk so hard
Wen you got a gal in de bucra yard
Ebry night at half-pas eight
| take my stan at the bucra gate
An wait for de gal with the bucra plate.
The Observer confessed, along with
the Macon Telegraph, that this was
a new one on it, but the Winston
Salem Journal says that in Forsyth
the song is as common as pig tracks
and as familiar as "Old Hundred :"
but the above rendering is inaccurate,
and that the unexpurgated version
runs thus:
Dere amt no use a-wOrkn so hard,
'Kase Sc got gal in de wite folks yard,
An every night about happass eight
You kin see me Standln' at de lite folks gate
Standin' dar--a-thinkin' out a plan
