few yells of approval went up.
The Atlanta bunch is to be con-
graduated on the game fight they put

Of injuries, etc, they put their should

WRONG HEADEDNESS
(By W1ghtman F. Melton.)

(By W1ghtman F. Melton)
Hard-headedness may sometimes be
a virtue, wrong headedness never is
The hard-headed man may be selfish
and at the same time right. The wrong
headed man Is always selfish and al
ways wrong.
Wrong-headednes expresses itself
in misunderstanding contradictions
quarrels, prejudices, feuds, frivolous
litigations, remembering evil, etc.
Wrong -headedness begins to mani
fest itself early A child declines VIC
play unless it can be mamma"
Unless wrong medicines is over
come-and it can bet will continue
to crop out all through life. Brutus
wanted Cicero to join the conspirators
His gray hair, Brutus thought, would
give dignity to their business. Cassius
& better judge of men than Brutus was
objected to Cicero on the ground that
he was wrong-headed; he would never
join in an enterprise that was origin
ated by some one else. He wanted to
be 1t.
The wrong-headed man willfully
misunderstands. If thing may be
interpreted as being either pleasant or
unpleasant, he is sure to take the
wrong view.
Wrong headedness, conceit, and ia.
norance often go together. The wrong
headed man thinks he is right. The
conceited man thinks everybody else is
wrong. The ignorant man is cock
sure, although he may not be able to
give a reason. The man afflicted with
this complaint would contradict Solo,
mon on wives, Edison on electricit7
and Burbank on potatoes.
The wrong-headed mans chip is big
ger than his shoulder He has no bea-
titude. His malediction reads: BE
hold, such a one hath lifted up his heel

against mel"
The wrong-headed man arrives at ii
opinion and there raises his Ebenezer.
He will not be moved, although addi-
tional light on the subject may con-
vince all intelligent men that he IS
wrong. Prejudice has destroyed his
intellectual sight
The world recognizes and approx IS
of the proper defense of family, honor,
and self. Feuds and frivolous litiga-
ton are the results of wrong-headed-
ness. Il will kill him because his
name is SMITH" This mans chicken
ate one of my mulberries, / will sue
him for $1O,O0O!"
The wrong-headed man will not
| fully forgive because he is unwilling to
forget. Twenty years ago his neigh
boris pig got into his cornfeld. HIS
ineighbor is a doctor. He did not speah
to the doctor for twenty years. On 3
stormy night the doctors services was
needed. He came unhesitatingly and
saved the life of his neighbor's wife
Next day the neighbor was as wrong
headed as ever.
A great general with a depleted and
starved army, decides that it would be
a senseless sacrifice of blood to con,
tinue hostilities. He offers his swor
to his gentlemanly antagonist. The
wrong-headed man says: II never
would a. given in. l would "a beel
fghtin' till yit!'
The world needs men, right-headed
the true; men who will not contradict
authority; men whose minds and
hearts are above petty quarrels, feuds.
prejudices, and litigations; men who
will work in harmony with other men,
men who, having done their best, will
submit uncomplainingly to the inevi-
, table-Nashville Christian Advocate

WE PAY FOR WHAT WE GET

The Birmingham Ledger hits the
nail when it says: when a man
talks about free water, free electric>
ity, free street cars or free anything,
he is making fun of his audience cr
considering them too foolish to think
at all.
mo city, no county, no state, has
any money except what is paid to it
in taxes. All the utilities given the
public would have to be paid for ont
of the public money"
Nothing truer was ever spoken.
Every candidate who launches a
campaign feels that it is his duty to
stand for lower taxes. And we all d.,
but at the same time, experience OF
the past will teach us that We viii
never have lower taxation.
Take Dothan as an illustration.
We have people who think the city
taxes are too high, the county an
state taxes are too high, and they
may be, but they will never be lowe:.
Not hardly. This isn't a people 70
stand for poorer service, and it is but
natural to have to pay for what We
get.
What good does it do the town, as
whole, if street taxes were RENTED
and an equal amount placed upon
property tax?
What good would it do to do away
with the ad valorem tax and then as
sess an equal amount as business
tax?
And as to the school, some woult
say the city hasn't any business put
ting up so much money for the school
What would be the difference, if tn,
city didn't help the school, and thu
patrons had to pay the school fee;
direct?
1t is all form of taxation and /
must be met. If the city as munich
pality didn't help, then individuals
would be assessed to make up for thu
def Il.

WASHINGTON, BALTIMORE, AND
THE SOUTH.

The publication of the latest report
CT the government as to the condition
of the cotton crop of the United States
is serving as the basis of bull cam
paign in that staple.
Private advices, to marked degree,
confirm the crop losses in northern
Texas and Oklahoma, but from the
Carolinas, Georgia, Alabama, AM
Florida those advices are much better
than those of the government repors.
The losses in the Southwest are suf-
fcient to produce higher prices for
cotton the world over, and the realiza-
ton that it will require total crop
Of nearly 100000 bales to fully care
for the actual consumption goes far
toward securing early demand and
| gUod prices for every bale or cottO1
that the South will produce in 1913.
| 1t will be found that the monetary
results will approximate in the total
fully as much as the South realized
| from the record breaking crop of 1911,
but the returns of cash to planters of
the State of the South Atlantic coast
will be much greater in 1918 than in
the year 1911.
Cotton, tobacco, and corn in the
States Of that region are all in prime
condition, and the prices are such as
to yield large and munificent profits
to the agriculturists of the state to
the immediate south of Washington.
Not in any year since our national
history was commenced have the pros
poets of financial profit to the farmers
and planters of those states seemed
so great or so certain as they do at
this writing, and if no unexpected eli
Imatic disaster occurs between nov
and October 10, there will be a mar
veIous accretion of wealth in the
states referred to during the coming
eight months.
Foreign cash, by the hundreds of
millions of dollars, will be added 20
the movement of money from all sec
tons of our country to pay for the ag-
ricultural products of Virginia, the
two Carolinas, Georgia, Florida, Ala
hama and Tennessee, and that means
an immense trade not only to the To-
cal merchants of those states, but to
cities such as New York, Philadelphia,
Baltimore, and Washington. all direct
ly on the short lines of communica-
ton with the states named.
These millions of dollas poured in
to the South stand for a great activity
in building in every one of the states;
these millions of cash mean more fac
tories, more shops, more school
houses, more churches, larger areas
in cultivation next year, more new
settlers, and general development
along every material line of enterprise
and business.
This prosperity means greater de-
mand and higher prices for the profit
producing acres of the Southern
lands, increase in immigration to the
Southeastern States, additional rail
way construction and increased rev.
enues to the railways already in op-
Grafton in that section of the republic
No two cities in the country will
gather a larger share of the CONNER
cial results of this Southern business
activity than will Washington and
Baltimore, and it will, without doub-
show very speedily in the increases
business of the merchants in each
place.-Washingt Post.
