"BEST SHOW IN TOWN"
At BONITA THEATER

THE best show in Atlanta" is
the verdict of the patrons of the
Bonita Theater. The fact is, the
Bonita will have none but the
hest and when a company does
not come up to the standard, the
engagement is cut short and the
wires are put to work. There is
a difference in the class of shows
produced at the Bonita and other
houses using the same KIND OF
attractions. The music is good,
the girls are pretty, and the dane
ing will make you pat your loot
and sway your body with the
graceful movements OF the snow
girls. The Bonita has the best.

COUNTY FUNDS TIED UP
DateSville Banks Still Scrapping
Over County Depository

Batesville, Sept. 2. - Another
chapter was written in the county
depository matter today when
Circuit Judge Jeffrey issued a re-
straining order to prevent County
Judge Scott from again letting the
funds of the county, or declaring
any bank the county depository.
The first of the year the county
judge let the funds to the Citizens
Bank & Trust Co, but the Union
Bank & Trust Co. contested the le-
gality of the proceedings and the
supreme court reversed the lower
court, thus leaving the county
without depository. The county
court had again advertised for
bids and the depository was to be
selected today. The restraining
order means in effect that the case
must again be passed on by the
circuit court before the county
court will have jurisdiction.

Therell Be No Knockers There

We hope to go to the realms above when we lie down
to die;
We hope the choirs all clad in white will greet our
wandering eye;
We know that We'll be filled with JOY in regions free
from care,
For angels tell us in our sleep there are no knockers
there.
Though rugged be the Jasper pave no soul shall more
complain,
Though sunlight shine the ages through no spirit call
for rain,
Though be half size too small no seraph tear
their hair
And all is joy above because there's no knockers
there.
Their music may be out of tune no one will hold his
ears
The robe may not be tailor made there' be no means
and tears
The sandals may be often worm none ask better
pair,
For glory the Lord of Hosts there are no knockers
there.
And when the Heavenly council calls for work upon the
street
Every will grab shovel and use it swift and
fleet;
No spirit will injunctions bring, cranks croak-
swear
The realms above free from chumps- there are no
knockers there.
Then take US from this vale of tears where cranks
to the front,
Where men who never work or toll still lie around and
grunt;
We long to wear celestial robes and climb the golden
stair;
For well we know that in those lands there are no
knockers there

MAKE PLANS FOR
ROAD WORKING
Citizens Meet and Arrange For
General Good Roads Rally
and Woodworking Day

An enthusiastic Good Roads
meeting was held at the Allen hall
in Newark Tuesday night, and
was attended by a large number
of the representative citizens of
the community.
+. N. Martin was elected chair
man, H. V. Meriwether secretary,
and ?. S. Fortune treasurer.
Short talks were made by a
number of citizens, in which con-
siderable enthusiasm was mani
tested in the good roads move
ment. 1t was decided to set a
date at later meeting to work
the road leading north from New
ark, known as the Newark and
Cord road.
The chairman appointed G. 0.
Magness, H. V. Meriwether and
L. +. Eaves as a committee to So
licit money, teams and labor to
work the road.
Another committee consisting
of ]. H. Mccoy, A. H. Saylors,

In the meantime let every man
living adjacent to this road ap-
point himself a committee of one
to see that nothing is left undone
to make this the most successful
road working in the history of In
dependence county. Sharpen up
your plows and scrapers, pass the
word along to your neighbor, tell
him you will be there with every
hand you have on your place that
is big enough to work, and urge
him to do likewise. If this is
done, there is no reason why this
road cannot be made first class

LET THE ARMY CARRY 1T.

Senator Nelson of Minnesota has
suggested that the government vote
lump sum for river and harbor i'm
provement, to be used at the discre-
ton of the army engineers, instead
of following the discredited pork
barrel system of specifying by law
just where and how each dollar of
the appropriation shall be spent.
1t was a bold idea for Senator Nell
son to broach, particularly since there
are many of his colleagues of the
senate, newly come to Washington,
who have never had a hand in di-
recting the distribution of the river
and harbor funds. 1t might seem
as if upon the eve of his own de-
parture from Washington he were
trying to spoil good thing" which
would be useful for those yho stayed.
But surely members OF congress
must be weary with the slurs about
the pork barrel" They must be
weary with the charge that they use
the rivers and harbors bill as a
means for promoting their political
standing with the home folk. They
must tire of the cartoons which show
them practicing the time-honored
methods of Tammany Hall. Also
they must be tired of the movements
promoted in different parts of the
country to grab off vast sums of gov
ernment money for visionary schemes
of waterway development.
In this state of mind, congress
ought to see that the Nelson idea
offers a way out. 1t will assure the
upkeep of rivers and canals and har-
bors. And, at the same time, it will
transfer the difficult task of decid.
ing between riva! claimants and
clamorers to the shoulders of the
army engineers.

ON SHAVING AND BEING SHAVED

The sizzling light of publicity that
beats upon the president has spread
abroad the important information
that on the morning of his inaugura-
tion President Wilson shaved him
self with an old-fashioned razor after
his custom.
The average man looks at pres
ident as always surrounded by GER
tain grandeur of official service. He
imagines lackeys and menials wait
ing at every turn to hand him his
hat or open the door for him, and
may not think of him as shaving
himself. Yet the number of public
men who perfrom this intimate and
personal task for themselves is prob
ably larger than ever before.
The habit of joining the line at
the barber's shop for a daily or
semi-weekly shave used to be more
common in the more leisurely days
of years ago. The clean luxury of
the barber's manipulation had a cer-
tain restfulness. The BARRIERS shop
was a free parliament of human in
/ terest 1t served the function for
the village or city man that. the
crossroads store provided for the
countryman. The give and take OF
congenial spirits was an incident OF
the days program not to be neglect
ed.
The modern business man finds
that the time spent in waiting his
turn is hard to gain in the stress ot
modern life. If he be very wealthy
and have as his man" a servan
who is a trained barber, the daily
shave continues to be luxury tha
can be enjoyed without loss of time
But probably the great majorit!
of Americans who have acquired
wealth of fame do not take kindl!
to the fussy attentions of a valet
The idea of having a trained barbe
in the house to perform this dali.
task is as repugnant as hiring a mai
to wash your face. So it happen
that the busy, hustling captain of in
dustry or head o: state may b
quite as likely to shave himsel
mornings as was the obscure villag
storekeeper of generation ago. l

TRAINING THE BOY.

If there is anything which more
than another would have astonished
the boy of thirty or forty years ago,
it would have been to learn that his
successors in boyhood were to be
considered in the light of grave ma
tional and social problems.
The boy of that period grew up
under a system more disciplinary
than indulgent. He had chores to
do, tempers to dodge, playing to
play with tremendous earnestness,
swimming to learn, skating, bob
Shedding, fishing in season, and that
substitute for hunting which consists
of carrying a heavy shotgun over
fourteen miles of stubblefield.
But a change has come in the
realm of youth. There is thing
which parades under various names,
such as child culture, scientific pa
renthood and the art of bringing up
children. In the book of a gentle
man professor back in Kansas, just
off the press, mothers and fathers
are told how to take their boys in
hand and so train them and prune
them that they will not become

that generation which scrubbed its
states in violation of sanitary sci
ence, colored the pictures in McGuf-
fey's readers with mineral pigments,
drank water by preference from the
edge of the we'll bucket, took off it's
clothes half a mile before it reached
the swimming hole, played with gun
powder, ate green apples, carved
sled runners out with a dull hatchet,
saved up pennies to buy rubber
bands for slingshots, threw the wood

Better Off Than Ever.

Representative Berger, the social
ist member of congress from Wash
ington, and the only man who ever
sat in congress representing the So
cialist party, declared that the Amer
lean worker was better off today
than ever before In the life of our
industries. This statement was made
in speech before the forum of the
University of New York. This de-
claration is important, as it comes
from man who represents a party
that claims the condition of labor is
deplorsble and because of its condi-
tion demands the socializing of all
our industries and governmental sys-
TENS.
