For DisniSsiOn.

Georgia, Terrell County,-Where-
as, w. T. Lane, administrator of Alb
ner B. Campbell, represents to the
court in his petition, duly filed and
entered on record, that he has fully
administered Abner B. Campbell's
estate. This is, therefore, to cite all
persons concerned, kindred and cred
itors, to show cause, if any they can,
why said administrator should not
be discharged from his administra-
ton and receive letters of dismission
on the first Monday in September,
1912. This July 10th, 1912.

The lawyer rOundly curses
The business he is in;
The poet damns his verses
And claim they keep him thin;
The cop would be a tailor,
The tailor would be cop,
The farmer be a sailor,
The sailor tend the crop.
The journalist declares he
Would sell cigars instead;
The Spectator swears he
Would keep an oyster bed;
In every occupation
The people seem to throb
To try some new vocation
The other fellows job.
But when the circumstances
Would free EN- from the groove
They do not take the chances,
They do not want to move.
Their trade-they sOurly view it.
With venom and with gall;
And yet they're sticking to it
They like it after all!

When you pull down the town in
which is your home, says the Punta
Gorda (Fla.) Herald, you are pull
ing down yourself, and when you
build up you are building up your
self and your neighbor. Try to ban
ish from your mind the mistaken
idea that all good things are away
off in some other locality. Give your
town all the praise it can legitimate
" bear. 1t certainly will do you no
harm, and will cost you nothing; and
above al patronize your home indus
tries. including the printing office.
Right, you are.

In view of the actual value to the

President Taft has commissioned
Philander C. Knox, secretary of
state, to go to Japan and represent
the government and people of the
United States at the funeral of Nut
suhito, late emperor of Japan. The
funeral rites will be celebrated on
September 18th and it will be ser
vice that will interest and impress
the foreigners who will be privileged
to witness it, for ii will be conducted
with the ritual of the ancient Shinto
faith, which is the state religion Of
Nippon. Shintoism is more OF an
cestor worship than anything else.

WHO MAY VOTE. AND WHERE.

There are two facts that those who
want TO vote in the primary OF to-
morrow, August 21st, should bear in
mind. They are who may vote and
where.
Only those who registered on or
before April 2nd OF this year are en-
titled to vote.
Every man must vote at his own
precinct. He will not be allowed TO
vote out of his own district. The
law is very plain on this point. Sec
ton $50 of the code of 1910 says:
NO elector shall vote in any such
primary election in a militia district
other than the one in which he re-
sides"
If the people will bear these facts
in mind they will doubtless avoid
some confusion and loss of votes.

Never before in the history OF any
political contest in Georgia was as
much advertising carried for candi-

intended to promote their personal

Those who thought the country

duction of whiskey and rum for the
past year was 100000 gallons
more than the year before. Added
to this is the horrible fact that the
