GEORGIA CRACKER
NEARLY EXTINCT

Thomasville, Ga.-That the many
tions of this modern age are chang
ing the character of the Georgia
cracker" and that the next genera
tiJr will see the passing of this pic
turesque figure so closely of Georgia
is the opinion of Patrick Pettibone, a
man whose business takes him much
through the various counties of this
section of the state.
The term Cracker" is said to have
originated from the practice of the
drivers of teams from the country in
cracking their long whips, residents
of the towns first applying it to them
and then to all of those living in the
backwoods regions of the state How
ever it originated, every Georgian
knows what a Cracker means as ap-
piled in its present significance to
any one, just as in other sections the
term "rube" or hill billy" is used.
II is used to be considered that a
"wiregrass cracker" was just about
the worst sort of a cracker that could
be found anywhere, but with the Won
derful changes that have taken place
in the vregrass region in the past
few years. it is said to be getting very
hard to find a regular bona fide one.
There were sections, some of them not
very far from Thomasville, where up
to a few years ago the mere mention
that person was a resident of thcm
was sufficient to mark him as a
cracker. There has been a marvellous
change in this respect. however, o"d
many of these came sections are now
among the most up-to- date parts Of
the country
