There Is an advertisement of a Fitzgerald
Real Estate Co., running in an Atlanta Daily that
is also good advertisement for Fitzgerald. We
regret that it can not be said that Fitzgerald's
real estate men are always helpful to the
community at large. They are not all good adj
vertisers, even those that are large advertisers
1t is an easy matter for a real estate man to
impose on his community, but it is never excus-
able
One Of the problems that this community
has TO wrestle With, and there are several on
the docket right now, is the question of public
roads. Fitzgerald is peculiarly unfortunate in
the matter Of public highways; we are out
classed by every village in Georgia We have
been handicapped all along since the colony was
organized eleven years ago, the control of the
County's road building has been inlmlcal TO our
interest. OF course there were roads here
when the colony came-thcre was not much
need of any then aud we still have the prob
lem TO solve. 1t will cost us considerable money
and will require several years before we have a
public road syatem to brag about.
SIS
Several weeks ago we promised t. get
public building for Fitzgerald aud now comes
Cordele. Listen at the Rambler:
Judge Max Land is enthusiastic over a
public building for Cordele. Well if Cordele
had $4,000 public building she would be
proud of herself The Rambler stands
ready 10 further this movement with ali our
might and main aud we see no reason Why
we shouldn't succeed, as we have between
six and seven thousand people, aod there
are towns with great deal less population
which have these buildings.
public building for Cordelas is not an
impossible task if we will all stand together.
The Rambler is Away conservative about
booming our town and don't make hot air
statements that can't be verified. We do
not believe in chasing mpossibilities. but
we do believe that we can secure one Of
these government bulldogs if Cordele and
Crisp county will all move together, If we
can't get it this year, let us keep working
until we do get it; it will be emily matter of
time, if our eugergies are directed in The
right direction We are too late, possibly,
to get federal court, but united efforts
VIII get US public building. Let US get

Had Too Much Conscience.

About so years ago, while the late
Father Sullivan was parish priest of
Randolph, Mass, and its outlying mis-
sions, he received an emergency call
to Avon, then East Stoughton.
To save time he entered the messen-
gers carriage and after watching the
drivers futile attempts to get speed
out of the steed, asked for the reins,
saying he Thought he was better used
to horses, and would get better re-
suits"
After some distance had been trav-
eled without much gain in time, the
priest asked where they were; the
drivers answer being, In Purgatory,"
that being the vernacular for that 10.
cality.
After what seemed an interminable
distance to the anxious priest, he
again asked their location, and was
Mortified at being told, I'VE are just
entering Hell's Kitchen"
The priest Immediately handed over
the reins, remarking, Here, sir, 1t
takes a man without a conscience to
drive this horse, and you are the

gentleman as ever was Squire of

He had a good-natured, ready wit,
and was very quick with his answers.
He operated a sawmill in the village,
and in his employ was man named
Sim" Parker, whose wages were al
ways overdrawn. He was drawing,
shiftless sort of a man, in direct con-
trast to Uncle Freeman"
A Saturday night came and Sim"
fully realizing the fact that his wages
were overdrawn, yet nightly in need
Of cash, approached Uncle Freeman"
and in hesitating sort Of way said,
Uncle Freeman-could you er-er-

Yes, Sim, just as little as you want"

Too Truthful.

Norman Hapgood, the journalist and

said. Truth telling in itself is not
particularly wise nor praiseworthy.
Indeed, it is sometimes the reverse.
THUS young man called on a
young lady one spring morning very
early. He had his big automobile
along. He wanted to give the young
lady a morning spin through the coun-
try.
"a little girl, the young lady's niece,

Unhappy Love Affairs.

clergyman discussing. unhappy
love affairs said:
MANY a love tragedy is caused by
a husbands promise to a dying wife
that he will not marry again He
thinks when he makes this promise
that it will be easy to keep. Whether
it is easy or hard to keep it is a prom.
Use rarely, If ever, broken.
Time and again widowers have
sought me out for advice on this sub.
ject. They are in love, but they prom
ised their dead wives not to marry
again. Shall they break or keep this
promise? can only advise them to
do as their conscience dictates.
cat the same time l think it is sci.
fish for dying wives to extract such
promises from their broken-hearted
husbands. Such promises, by the way,
are rarely extracted by dying hus-
bands from broken-hearted wives. But
then when the dead husbands will is
read it is usually found that if the
widow marries again the money is all
taken from her. So it comes to the
same thing in the end. doesn't it?"

Col. Church's Christian.

When Col. Church made his final ex-
petition for the capture of Port Royal,
and had arri / at Mt. Desert Harbor,
he was visited by several members of
the Indian tribes of that neighborhood.
Among them was one OLD man who
asked to be permitted to partake of
the refreshments, which were about to
be served.
The colonel told him he must be
Christian first. He replied that he
was one already, and rolling up his
eyes, solemnly uttered these words:
adam - Eve - Noah - jeremiah
- Beelzebub - Solomon"
what do you mean?" asked the
colonel.
Looking hard at the junk bottle on
the table, the old man answered:
