NO CORONATION FOR HIM.

1t has been customary to now and
then inaugurate the governor of
Georgia with imposing ceremonies,
both civil and military, the pomp and
circumstance attending the occasion
varying in degree according to the
love of display manifested by the dis
tinguished gentlemen who have been
called to the governors chair. Hon.
Joseph NJ Brown, the plain, practi-
cal, modest man that he is. has
announced that when he assumes the
duties of this Office next June there
will be no coronation" as the GER
emOnies of former inaugural
were so loudly characterized by
some of the subjects and worshipers
of the great man who was to rule
over the people Mr.. Brown will dis
pense with all of this 1ummery, and
will insist upon the simplest form of
ceremony necessary to legally and
properly induct him into office. He
will ride from his home in Marietta
to the capitol in a street car, and
quietly and unostentatiously take
the oath of office in the hall of the
house of representatives in the pres
ence of the members of the legisla-
ture and state officials, as we once
saw one of the very best governors
Georgia has ever had do 1t does

BILL" 'POSSUM DON'T GO.

From the Savannah News.
The one failure in connection with
the Georgia visit of President-eIect
Taft is that Of the Atlanta idea Of
foisting upon the American people
the Billy 'Possum. Judge Taft him
self must have resented the PROPOSE
ton. Because he ate slice of roast
'possum at Atlanta and washed it
down with a draught of 'simmon
beer was no good and sufficient rea-
son for the effort to identify him
with the marsupial, which is not an
altogether lovely creature. The
possum, as a matter of fact, has been
much overrated of late in connection
with the Taft banquet. Baked pos
sum is not a dish for the gods. -
1t appeals most strongly to the day
labOrer; and he must be mighty hun
CRY at that if he says truly that it
tastes as good as anything he ever
ate. The 'possum appetite has got
to be both cultivated and whetted.
There was a show of reason for the
Teddy Bear; there is none for any
such creature as the Billy Postum.

Look I'D.

Look up! the cesspooI teens with
dirty swarms
Beneath decent preachers sacred
care.
Left to themselves they do but
trifing harm
The pure in heart know simply
they are there
But when you stir the waters deep
and dark
The myriads beneath the surface
rise;
They rise, but your wise teachings
do not bark
They sink again, creating no sur
prise.
Let thought soar higher in the realm
of love,
Paint radiant hopes and mans
true paradise;
Lift man to life, to God, who reigns
above,
By telling him how dear his ran
som and how great the price
There is enough of love for you to
sing of bright and holy joy
How God so loved the world and
loving gave His son,
How sin and sorrow from earth He
would destroy,
BY trusting Him how full salava-
tons won.
Then talk of God and of His love
for man,
Let crows dive into mud and
filthy mire,
Speak love with all the power at
your command,
How God invites and Jesus calls
us higher.

Dozen Moore.

Poor Mr.. Owen Moore no doubt
lived in small city or town where
he tried to make living by running
a store. The people who were his
neighbors in that town and on the
farms around town bought most of
their things from the great mail or
der houses, neglecting to trade with
Mr. Moore.
Quite naturally Mr.. Moore failed
in business, and went away owing
more than he could pay. He had to
go away and find location in some

RTu.nING UP A CITY.

Town builders should understand
that holding lands at high prices is
not profitable to the town or to the
individual.
Philadelphia has been called the
city of homes, and the late VIM.
Singerly of that city built many
blocks of handsome seyen-room brick
houses with marble trimmings that
he sold at $3.50 on a cash payment
of $3.50 and per cent. on deferred
payments. In Camden, New Jersey
neat fye-room, two-story brick
houses were built as rapidly as they
could be sold at about $1,000, but
with no land except that occupied
by the house and no galleries. The
men pushing this kind of work were
doing it from city pride. True, they
figured on per cent. on the actual
outlay, but they were such large
builders that they built at mini
mum cost.
While Dawson is not quite as large
as either of the above towns the
same things that have helped them
to grow and prosper would help us.
Dawson should double its population
in another ten years, and most of
the residents should own their own
homes. That gives permanency to
a population. 1t fosters patriotism
and home pride. Our capitalists in
stead of lending money at 10 to Is
per cent. Ito people who would be
better off if they kept free of inter-
est-bearing debts for doubtful invest
ment) should get to work to build
up Dawson. But houses are not the
thing. Build homes for the people
new homes at right prices and terms
To make the most possible out of
ones fellow man may be business,
but it does not build up towns, and
is not good morals While no one
is expected to bankrupt himself in
pushing forward the town and help
ing their fellows, people who push a
town along and do good turns where
opportunity offers are the ones who
really make a success of life.

GET IN THE CORN CONTEST.

As the time for planting corn
draws near the farmers should not
forget the 500 in cash prizes Mr..
J. R. Mercer has offered for the best
yields of corn grown on an acre of
land in Terrell county. The News
has heard of a sufficient number in
different sections of the county who
have expressed an intention of en-
tering the contest to show that the
farmers are interested in the culture
of corn, and that the efforts to win
the prizes will be interesting.
This is going to be a great corn
year in Terrell county, and every
man who grows corn at all should
cultivate one or more prize acres.
1t will cost nothing but energy and
care, and the farmer will make by
it even if he does not win a prize.
Every man and every boy on a
farm should get into this corn game.

GENEVA, Nov. 22-count Leo Tol- stoi, by way of Switzerland has given another message to the world At an anu.military meeting in Bieme, when 100 Swiss and foreign delegates were assembled, Tolstors appeal to the peo pie was read amid great enthusiasm.
 It had been written especially for the recent peace conference at Stock. holm, postponed because of the recen strike. Later it was arranged to read the appeal at Berlin, but the police prohibited it.
 Yesterday Tolstors friends in Gen. eva delivered his message. Tolstoi appeals to the good sense of the worlds people to refuse to serve as soldiers, either voluntarily or under pressure even if that refusal entails punishment. Killing by soldiers, he
