Waycrcss and Brunswick Juniors to
Fight 1t Out This Week.
Three interesting games of baseball
between the second teams of Bruins
wick and Waycross will be played on
the local diamond on Thursday, Fri

The teams are both unusually strong
for junior teams and all three of the
games promise to be interesting.

games in Waycross last week, split
ting even with the home team. The
first game was won by Waycross on
a score of to 1, and on Saturday
the local boys turned the tables and
won by score of s to 1.
The Brunswick juniors are bringing

IMPROVE EMENTS
BEING MADE ON
G. C. 8 P. ROAD
PARTY OF EASTERN CAPITALISTS
ARE LOOKING OVER THE
LINE.
Report is Current Again That the
Work Of Extending the Road to
Brunswick viii Begin
Very Soon.

Ludowici, July 27.-There is con-
siderable speculation here over the
ipresence of Vice President H. D. EN-.
lerson of the Georgia Coast and Pied
mont railroad, with offices in New
| York, accompanied by party of
eastern capitalists. They passed over
the road from Darien to Collins and
returned to this place, where they
! took the Coast Line for the north.
Nothing definite could be learned
from any of the party as to their mis-
! sion, but it was limited that they
iwere representatives of a group who
had intentions Cf purchasing stock in
! the road if an examination of the
property warranted it.
Last year the road was granted the
right to increase its capital stock, but
the panic came on just at the time
and nothing could be done with it.
During the past month, however, the
road has been making many improve
ments and the preparations are being
made for mere of them. All along The
line new ties are being put in, the
roadbed ballasted and levelled and
bridges strengthened. ! General Su-
perintendent L. X. Emerson was here
few days ago and it is understood
, that his mission was TO look into the
matter of the new depot to be built
at this place. 1t is known that an ar
chitect has been engaged and re-
tanning fee paid him to draw up plans
for building to cost about four
thousand dollars. 1t will be built of
brick near the Coast Line depot,
within easy access from all parts of
town. I. -~rf9-. "A r+.s, -ss.la, 49,"
The extension of the road into
Brunswick is alo being talked of
again, and as the offer of that city
i, Of financial assistance for the work
istill holds good there is little doubt
but that, the extension will be built
and that work on ii will begin in the
near future. The road is doing a con-
tlnued increased business and. though
a short one, is important, and is being
used more and more as short cut for
freight and passenger traffic, cen.
Meeting as it does with the Seaboard
/, at Collins, at its western terminus,
and the Coast Line here, and the Sea-
board at Darien Junction

surprised to see the large congrega- tions which fill the churches where I have attended. I find especially among the Friends churches and the First Christian church very cordial, earnest people and their pastors, men of God fully realizing the responsibilities rest ing on them.
 On June 28, the State convention of c. E. met in this city until July g.; there were between 250O and 5000 dele gates who met with the c. E. of this city. The services were of a very in teresting character. Soon after this convention the Chautauqua of South ern California and the annual state conference of the First Christian and Baptist churches was held here, which also was of much interest to all con- cerned. It is estimated that these events alone here brought in over 00,0O0 into the city.
 l have not as yet taken any trips outside this city and Los Angeles. There are few places I expect to see before returning east, while my health is very good. I hardly expect to renew my age to the extent that would admit of my travelling about very much and then make the return trip to the East.
 I have omitted the mention of the fig tree as well as many other things, and some of which, will speak of in my next, but the fig tree because of sacred association I will mention now. A peculiar thing seems to be that never blossom is seen, the fruit just sim ply comes out on the branches or per haps on the body of the tree, as has been the case of one in my brother-in- laws yard, which I have watched with some interest and saw it develop into good sized ripe fig. It was a very nice one, though I thought when first I tasted them l was not going to like them and was told that most people had to cultivate the taste for them and think it is so. You will see on the same tree figs in three stages of growth, the ripe fig, the partly ripe and the fruit just beginning to start. The leaf of the fig tree is very pretty. Mrs s. A. Noe.

of the importance of Thinking for your self. This world in which we find our selves is replete with theories, ologies and isms of every variety from the profound to the supremely ridiculous, united to the very taste of the individ- ual. So far as my observation has seemed to serve me, in very many re- spects large proportion of the human family seem to prefer some one other than themselves, to do a great share of their thinking for them, it being much easier to accept theories and doc trines than giving themselves the la borious task of thinking them out for themselves. It is not always pro- ductive of the best results: as life usually proves, to lend a soft side as yielding opinion, or rather an easily moulded mind of no opinion, to all we see and hear. How frequently in life we meet those who think just as we do about whatever we have under con sideration that perchance in less than an hour may meet some other person, who upon the same subject may enter tain exactly the opposite opinion. You will find ready acceptance to all he says, and just what he always thought. That class of persons are numerous, like toads, toadying to every one's opinion and,seldom if ever guilty of entertaining one of their own. Do but little thinking for themselves.
 During political campaign, this class of individual IS quite conspicuous and may be found on most any corner ready to talk with you upon the topics of the day. or rather to let you talk and matters little whether you express the sentiments of sound substantial
 Gold Bug" or the questionable the ories of a "Silver Bug," they are firm advocates of your opinion, and just what they always thought. This un- fortunately is too apt to be a promi- nent feature of politics and under the present vari-colored political states in addition to his thinking machine, it would require Philadelphia P lawyer, or the D. C., to tell a man which end he stood on, anyway. So in the coming campaign of 1908 get your machine in order and it's brass mountings well burnished with Silverall and be ready to waltz around again with Willie B. and after the waltz is over think "what fools we mortals be.
 The music of the bells as it echoes o'er the hills invites us to the various gathering places to listen to the va riety of themes and theories, each proclaiming their own seemingly, to firmly believe their own particular mode of worship the better way of reaching conclusions. Does it not ap- pear to you, as to us, that large pro portion of these listeners accept the theories as doctrines of their teaching as heard lady say He is minister, has studied and he ought to know" rather than think out the problem for themselves.
 In the conjugal makeup of human life is there any one feature more prominent where there is manifest so fragrant disregard of all law, social, moral, temporal, or even spiritual, physics or metaphysics, where we ex- ercise so little care, thought, discre- tion, knowledge or judgment and such unpardonable recklessness and so little or no common sense as we do in the home relations we form for life. We make our bed of life often at the ca
