The Passing Of IrW nvi!Ie.

With the removal of the county
property from Irwinville to DELLA
last week, and the passing of the
county seat of Irwin from the old
town to the new city, one OF the
most interesting and heroic places
in South Georgia becomes little
more than memory.
Besides being the heroic spot
where the late Jefferson Davis,
president of the Southern Confed-
eracy, was captured, Irwinville is
one of the Oldest towns in estate.
1t was made the county seat soon
after the county of Irwin was laid
out in 1918, and when the country
embraced all the territory from
the Ocmulgee river east to. the
Flint river and south to the Flori-
da line.
At time when the judges, law
yers and ministers made their cir
cult on horseback, Irwinville was
the scene of many events that
went toward the making of the
history of the state and manymore
quite as interesting that have
never been told. If its old court
house could talk, it could tell many
an interesting story.
Old citizens say that the town
is ninety nine years and eight
months old. but in this, history
does not bear them out, and eighty
nine is probably its correct age.
1t is noteworthy fact that the
records of the country since its or
ganization cighty-nine years ago,
are practically complete, and they
are very interesting not only as
curiosities but valuable contribu
lions to the records of the state.
Even the most progressive must
stop to breathe a sigh of regret at
the passing away of this historic
Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1907-09-14

landmark, but the demands Of
modern progress and changed con
ditions have made the removal
necessary for the benefit of the ma
jority Of the people.
The fall term of Irwin Superior
court, which was to convene on the
first Monday in September, has
been adjourned until the first
Monday in December, in order to
give people of the new county seat
ample time in which to make the
necessary preparations.
Meanwhile all the county officers
have been provided with offices in
Ocilla, where they are ready for
the transaction of county business.

FACTS 1}}<'U I
The Great Majestic Rar &

It is the only range in the world
made of Malleable and Carcoal
Iron.
1t has, beyond any question of a
doubt, the largest and best reservoir.
The Majestic All Copper Nickel

and hotter than any other. 1t is the
only reservoir with removable frame.
The Charcoal Iron Body of the
Great Majestic Range lasts three times
as long as steel body.
Being made of non breakable ma
terial, there is practically no expense
for repairing the Majestic.
AS for baking, it is perfection, not
only for few months, but for for all
times to come.

1t may seem waste of time to have
fire drills in the public schools. for
there are so many drills and so few
fires. but there is no telling when the
training will come in good place. A
wind storm at north Yakima tore loose
part Of the ventilating system and
blew it against the cupola. Pupils and
teachers thought the roof was tumbling
in. The children screamed but tea
cher rang the fire alarm. This seemed
to bring the children to their senses at
once. They knew what it meant and
had often formed in line when they
heard it. The result was that the
building of ten rooms was cleared in
three minutes.

use to which that beautiful country is
put. Inquiry will reveal the fact that
it has all been absorbed in a limited
number of big farms. say of from 100
to 500 acres each. The laborers who
supply the needs of these farms at
seed-time and harvest are transients.
There is no rural population, surround
ing the town, sufficient to furnish it
with business on which to thrive.
Let the merchants and business men
devote to the breaking up of portion
of these farms into homecrofts por-
tion of such effort as they have vaiuly
spent IN endeavoring to secure the To-
cation in their town of manufacturing
enterprises, and the cure of ''deca-
dence" is found. Each "big farm"
heretofore occupied by single family,
becomes the seat of from twenty to one
hundred families, dwelling on crofts
of from one to twenty acres each.
Then there are several thousand per-
sons for the stores and shops to serve,
where they now serve only hundred
or two. To a small town thus sur
rounded new business comes without
being coaxed.

In these days of growth, of changing
conditions, of railroad extension, of
industrial and agricultural progress,
it is difficult and often impossible to
predict with any kind of certainty
what one place or another will be five
or ten years hence. But where the
country is settling up as it is in the
Inland Empire, with most desifa ble
class of people. there is an assurance
of growth in any and all Of the towns
and cities. The man who goes out
looking for something BETTER is not
unlikely to find that his quest is a

There came period when Thatcher
noticed that his fiancec was different at
different times. At one evening when
he called she would manifest her usual
interest in what interested him or what
he was srpposed~-to prefer to talk

lightly. principally about what she was

rested by this semifrivolity and per-

disposition TO have her own way about

into a sudden burst OF passion, so i'm
potent, so unreasonable, that he was
quite amused. Instead of fiarinS up
himself he would sit and laugh at her.
Then when he had had enough of this
summer tempest on a milIpond he
would take her to his arms and cover
