BE SURE YOUR SIN WILL FIND
YOUOUT.

Gilbert Hubbard says man is pun
ished by his sins-not for them). For
instance:
When Bridget lights the kitchen fire
And uses kerosene.
And to make the flames leap higher
This servant girl green.
POurs the oil upon the flame,
And she goes up the spout,
It's hardly worth the while to name
Her sin has found her out
When Rastus from the melon patch,
Emerges with his find;
The choicest one that he could
snatch
When he had to go it blind;
And yet is full of ipecac,
AS you see him roll about,
Then you can bet your bottom stack,
His sin has found him out.
When Willie in the apple tree
On apples green does feast;
And with the fruit makes awful free,
Eats seventeen at least;
Then as you hear him scream and
grOan
There isn't any doubt,
But what to anyone he'll own
His sin has found him out.

MEN IN THE CONFED.
ERATE ARMY.

The recent death of Col. L. O.
Niles, of Marshallville, has brought
to the public attention the fact that
he and four brothers served in the
Confederate army. There is nothing
remarkable in the fact of five broth
ers serving in the cause of the South.
Many families sent all their sons in
to the ranks Of the gray, and in some
instances all of them died on the
field Of battle. But in the Niles
case the really remarkable feature
is that all Of them were born and
reared in Massachusetts, of old New
England stock, and came South some
time prior to the breaking out Of
the war, being resident in Georgia
sufficiently long to become thorough
ly affiliated with the conditions sur
rounding them and to become thor
oughIy Southern in spirit and in pur-
pose
It would be interesting to know
how many men born and reared in
the North served under the Con-
fderate flag The number would
doubtless be much greater than one
would at first surmise. In Americas
every one will recall the fact that
two of the Wheatley boys, Pennsyl-
vania born and reared, enlisted UNI
der the stars and bars and gave val
liant service to the state and section
of their adoption. We remember the
late Thornton Wheatley telling us
how, when he returned North i'm
mediately after the conclusion of hos
tilities, the feeling locally against
him was very bitter and the threats
of physical punishment that were
made against him caused him to leave
for more congenial chimes. Down in
Savannah there were a number Of
former Northern men who left the
pursuits of peace and became SOL
diers for the South If we remember
rightly, the late Capt. Jack Wheaton,
the gallant commander of the Chat
ham artillery, was born in the North
Of an old family Of that section.
Probably if an inquiry were made
in every community it would be found
that one or more men born and rear
ed in the North, but coming South
in ample time to imbibe Southern
sentiments before the war broke out,
threw in their destinies with this
section. The war was truly one be-
tween brothers.

appreciate and understand.
The wisest thinkers believe that
history should be taught differently
from this, that it should begin with
the local history, extend the circle
of its influence to the story of the
state, then of the nation and then of
the greater world beyond. Every
child in Americas should know. for
instance, when Sumter county was
formed, what county it was takn
from, the story of the revolutionary
hero whose deeds its name common
crates, it should know the story of
the beginnings of Georgia, of the
development of the state, of the part
it has played in peace and war in
the nations development. Once If
is acquainted with those matters its
interest will have been aroused In
history, and it will be eager for more
knowledge, because it knows that his
tory deals with things that have en-
tered into the making of the environ
ment that surrounds it in every day
life. into conditions under which i.
lives and must continue to have lis
being But how can the ordinary
child's interest be aroused under the
old system that dealt with men and
peoples and conditions that had not
the remotest connection with its own
life, that seemed like studying about
Mars or some other planet.
Even outside of patriotic motives,
common sense would dictate that the
child's historical education should
begin with its home history, with
the story Of its own locality and
state. That sort of history tends 20
arouse civic pride, to make a bet
ter citizen of the future man. And
that is one of the main things adu-
cation should seek to accomplish

The Savannah Press was one of
the staunchest of the newspapers
supporting Hoke Smith, and it's adj
miration for the former governor was
hot diminished in the slightest by
his failure to secure reelection. If
he were candidate again the Press
would undoubtedly be found giving
him valiant support. But the Press.
like the vast majority of other Jour
nails that were included in the Smith
column, sees the handwriting On
the wall, it reads correctly the spirit
of the times and realizes that Geor-
gia is bent on having Governor
Brown remain in the governors chair
for another term. Hence it candid
ly acknowledges that it is not like
ly that Brown will have any oppo-
sition this year.
1t would be well if all of the for
mer Smith supporters would recog-
NE the situation as it is, cease their
attempts to arouse opposition that
would undoubtedly be futile, and let
the state have rest from political
discussions this year. Of course, It
is bitter pill for many of them 10
swallow, to have Gov Brown re-
elected without opposition, but it
would be far better for them, and for
everybody else to have it that way
than to stir up another bitter con-
test only to have Gov. Brown re-
elected with an increased majority, as
would assuredly be the case.

Hurrah for Atlanta! 1t is hard
to resist the temptation to take off
ones hat and give three cheers for
the city that does things on a big
scale, with enthusiasm and with its
mind set on even greater achieve
ments in the near future.
Atlanta is an example and an in
spiration to other citirs It's spirit
is the spirit that every Georgia city
should seek to emulate. It is the
spirit that does things, the spirit that
overrides obstacles and accomplishes
that which was regarded as impossi-
BILE. it is the spirit of an aggressive,
united, determined, progressive peo-
pie, the spirit that wins.
One Of the reproaches of this go
ahead city has been the absence of
proper sewerage and an adequate
water supply in some sections. The
city has grown so rapidly, it's pub
lie expenditures on improvements had
been so great that these important
matters had not received the atten-
ton they were entitled to- Health
should be the paramount considera-
ton. Atlanta, awakened to that
fact, has determined to remedy the
ills from which it suffered Of the
bonds to be issued with the almost
unanimous vote of its people $780,
600 win be for sewers, 100000 for
waterworks, 100000 for public
schools, 100000 for the Grady hos
pital, and $4,000 for a crematory.
Atlanta is to be congratulated on
the result of the election. It was
just what was to be expected in a
live city like chat. The future of
Atlanta, bright as it has been, is
made the brighter by the action Of
its citizens in creating this new pub
lie debt-a debt that tells of prog
ress, prosperity, hope, willingness,
civic pride and determination, all the
qualities that go to the making of a
really great city these days.
