Chairman McLendon. Some of the most
prominent people here express them
selves as follows:
Colonel NJ. L. Ledford: Entirely
right, both from standpoint Of consis-
tency and principle. McLendon's action
could not command the respect of any
faction Of Georgia politics.
Judge w. e. Dunno, contractor: Gov
ernor Smith did exactly what he should
have done. One Of the last things for
Governor Smith to do ana among the
best"
j. P. Malloy. turpentine operator: "a
man who betrays his trust as McLendon
has done should be put out Of Office"
G. A. Wight, druggist: Governor

he is elected is not worthy to hold an

Rev. Burnett arrived Friday

Read This to the Chaliis Boys.

Young Challis men, we notice
that you are not in school any
more. What's the matter ? Do
you think you have received
education enough to carry you
through the world Or do you
stay out just because you no not
like to go Didn't like the
teacher, eh Well, let me tell
you that you will find the mean
est teacher on earth now dream
of love besides some of the boss
es you will work under in the
cold and unfeeling years you
will plow into when you have to
get out and hustle for yourself.
Education is the most valuable
thing in the world to man. but
to boy it comes the cheapest
1t costs you nothing now to get
that for which many man in
town would give all be has to
possess. You have the winning
number in the lottery of educa-
tion if you play it now. Loaf
around a few years and you will
always be on blank. 1t is true
that any man can make living,
but you will notice that the fell
lows who do it With their brains
have an easier time of it than
those who are compelled to do il
with their muscles. At the pres
ent stage of the game the choice
jobs are not held by physical
strength. Education will not
crawl into your heads while you
are asleep. The thing for you
to do is to hike off to school to-
morrow morning and stay there
Your holidays will come later
when you need them.

young lady. She has ever been
a bright star in the home circle
and now she has gone to reign
as queen in her own home. The
groom is one of the very best
young men in this community.
He was born and raised in Chal-
lis, and the only son of Lockhart
B ,yd.
The love and esteem in which
this worthy couple is held was
shown by the numerous and
beautiful presents. The many
friends of the bride and groom
wish them a long. pleasant and
prosperous life.
MARRIAGE.
Men and women, especially
young people, do not know that
it takes years to marry complete
ly two hearts, even of the most
! loving and we'll sorted. But nat
ure allows no sudden change.
We slope very gradually from
the cradle to the summit of life.
Marriage is gradual, a fraction
of us at a time. A happy we'd
lock is long falling in love. We
know young persons think love
belongs only to brown hair and
plump, round, crimson cheeks.
So it does for it's beginning, just
as Mount Washington begins al
Boston bay. But the golden
marriage is part of love which
the bridal day knows nothing of
Youth is the tassel and silker
flower of lore, age is the full
corn, ripe and solid in the ear
Beautiful is the morning of low
with it's prophetic crimson, viole
purple and gild, with its hope
, of days that are to come. Beauti
r full also is the evening of love
with its glad remembrances, ant
its rainbow side turned tOwar,
: heaven as we'll as earth.
