What About the WeeviI?

There is an old saying that you
cant get all the 'pOssums up one
tree" and it is equally true that
there is not anything about which
all the people will agree Two weeks
ago a party composed of Dawson
bankers, farmers and merchants
went to Mississippi to see for them
selves the effects of the boil weevil
and brought back reports of deyasta-
ton, destruction and desolation, and
painted a picture of conditions when
the pest reaches here that is full of
forebodings and gloom. Since then a
prominent citizen of Albany, who
has visited the weevil section, has
a two-column article to
the Herald in which he says the boil
weevils are not so bad, after ali, and
that Southwest Georgia will grow cot
ton and prosper in spite OF them. The
News is inclined to believe that the
invasion of this section by the weevil
will be a very serious matter, and
our farmers should prepare for its
coming. 1t is the safest course to
pursue, and whether the weevil does
much damage or not the farmers will
be better off because of diversified
ton of crops and the abandonment
Of the all-cotton method of farming.

Brennan Banner: President
Brooks of Baylor in addressing com
mencement people advises them to
heed the call of the world But
it is interesting to note that the call
always leads away from the cotton
patch and toward the shady side of
the street, at so much per call.

One Effect of the Fall Festival

generation or two ago the majority OF us
lived in villages. These were isolated as al
most to be independent of each other. No tele-
phones, telegraphs, railways, traction lines,
postal service, newspapers or passable highways
functioned to knit separated communities into
organic unity. The village was little world,
complete, insulated, and self-sufficient. Com
munity activities housed beneath the
church roof or in town hall.
Under such circumstances competition
keen between rivals in business. There was only
definitely limited amount of trade in sight and
every merchant had to get his share or go bank
rupt AS result men in the same profession or
trade were usually not on speaking terms, but
considered each other as born enemies. lndlvld-
ual stores or individual men were the units In
the game of competition.
Today how different! 1t is almost impossi-
BILE to tell where town leaves off or the country
begins. Communities are merged into each 9TH
er and countryside has become a compact
organism with telephone and telegraph lines,
railways, fractions and good roads as the arter-
les supplying a constant circulation of life
through all parts. Nobody trace the limits
of trade nor a single merchant say: This par
ticular territory or that belongs by right to me
and to other.
This is but to say that cities, and not individ-
uals, have now become the competing units 1t is
no longer a question as to whether this mer-
chant that gets the business, but whether
Richmond can hold it's own against Dayton or In
Il Indianapolis. Merchants are no longer enemies,
hut partners in the same common enterprise.
What benefits one benefits the other.
| s5s For this reason we rejoice because of the
Fall Festival. It teaches us to realize our mu-
snicipal solidarity. 1t causes us to know who our
real competitors are And in bringing men of
] the same business into committees to work in
conjunction with each other it serves to destroy
the leftover delusion still harbored in some quar-
tiers that our business rival is our enemy. 1t
teaches us that when we work together the city
will prosper and prosperous city means prosper
ity for all.

MAKING OF A CHAMPION.
BY CHARLES N. LURE

Maurice E. Mclaughlin OF California.
young man, is the lawn tennis cham-
pion of the United States and one or
the best players in the world. his re
cent playing has aroused the players
and followers of the game. many tnou-
sands in number. to enthusiasm.
Winning the championship after
three months of the hardest lawn ten
mis- that an American ever attempted,
Mclaughlin proved that his condition
was perfect, that he could have under
gone greater stress if need were.
The reason?
1t Is found in the statement or
sporting writer that the powers or en-
durance fought and won for McLough-
lin. He stood up" under the strain.
When the time came for the supreme
effort he had the stamina to meet the
call upon him
If he had been content with the bril-
lance OF play which is naturally his.
if he had relied upon his service and
his stroke, his power of outguesslng
the other fellow. Mclaughlin in all
proba bility would not have won the
championship. The long strain of the
campaigns in England and America
would have told and at the end he
would have gone to pieces.
1t is stamina that tells in lawn ten
mis-, in baseball, in football. in all the
affairs of life.
When athletes wish to praise man
highly they say he has the stuff in
him" That means he is fit for a long
hot hEN
does not rely altogether on his brains,
his nerve and his knowledge Of the
game
1t means that he can last.
! Stamina. 1.-The stuff" does not come
| to a man naturally 1t must be devel-
| oped. 1t must be acquired by degrees.
! 1t cannot be gained in an hour. a day
or a week.
In a sense men and women are all
| engaged in a sort of championship
! game. The prizes go most often to
those who train faithfully and patient
ly and wait their time.
! True, sometimes the man or woman
of genius arises who needs no training.
1t is the exceptional case. Most Of us
| are not geniuses.
| The rest OF us, in whatever walk OF
life we find ourselves or in whatever
fields we pursue our ends and ideals
need the sort of stamina that is devel-
! oped by long preparation, by careful
training, by observance Of the rules OF
! physical, mental and moral health.
The wisest and most successful ath
! lete is the one who knows the rules
al no win
In the game of life likewise follows the
rules They are not numerous. They
are simple and easily learned.
But they must be observed If success
is to be won.

Another Myth Gone

Every myth has it's day. But alas for it when
Yankee scientist gets on its trail.
Ozone has been about the most advertised
atmospheric element; has become notorious, in
fact, and almost Chautauqua reputation.
Health resorts have staked their name their
supply of it, "the genuine, freshly distilled from
pine forests; sanitaria have used it as lead in
their advertisements; patent medicines have
been concocted to furnish it in liquid form, and
experimenters have patented all manner of de-
vices for giving in our sleeping cham
bers. 1t has been supposed fatal to germs, bene-
fetal to the lungs, and a natural toner up of
the system generally.
And now along come Profs Jordan and Carl
son of Chicago University, and gently lift its
scalp. Alas for ozone; its reputation is gone for
ever 1t will not kill germs, they assert, except
in quantities which would be harmful to human
tissues; it has no value as disnfectant; it is
n. g. as a deodorizer; deluson and snare gen.
orally, it seems.
All this at least, is set forth by The Journal
of the American Medical Association, publica-
ton not much given to exaggeration.
And the same authority elsewhere emphasiz-
es the danger of positive harm which may result
from the use of ozone as a purifier of the at
mosphere. It doesn't really purify foul air, at
all, it declares, but gives the impression of such
by smothering other smells with its pecu-
liar odor and by deadening the nostrils.
The moral of which is pointed by the Journal
as follows:
Modern mechanical devices for purifying the
air, as we'll as elaborate systems for artificial
ventilation are in the main, decisions and snares
If you want good air-and everybody does if
they can get it-go outdoors and get tor let
the outdoors in through open window
All of which is very disappointing to U.s. We
have been privately Matching plan for using a
little ozone in purifying municipal conditions
but now it appears we have but one remedy-tc
opep the windows and let in a little light.

A STALK OF CORN.

Amid the purlieus of the grim East Side
Where beauty thing that ne'er born,
Upon balcony rears, in hammered pride,
slender stalk of
Alien to every sight and every sound,
It's leaves beneath the transient glow bright,
And the white stars upon their punctual round,
Touch it with tender light.
What is it's dream: of fields that sweep and sway
Beneath autumnal breezes breathing low?
What does it bring? To one, exile gray
Visions of long ago:
Visions of youth and hope, of the far hills
Of home where a lone wanderer was born.
All, what a boon amid life's griefs and ills,
This slender stalk of corn!

Previous to the exile which occurred some
six hundred years before Christ, the Israelites
kept their calendar New Year festival in the
autumn. Long contact with the Babylonians,
however, introduced customs and caused
them to change their calendar year in such a
way as to bring New Years in the spring But
the old season kept so firm grip on them they
compromised by keeping the church festival of
the New Year at the old date.
We extend all best wishes to our local Jewish
citizens and wish them many prosperous New

AVOID sEDATIvE MEDICINES.

If you want to contribute directly
to the occurrence of capillary bron-
chitis and pneumonia, use cough medi-
cines that contain iodine, morphine,
heroin and other sedatives when you
have a cough or cold. An expectorant
like Chamberlain Cough Remedy is
what is needed. That cleans out the
culture beds or breeding places for
the germs of pneumonia and other
germ diseases. That is why pneu-
monia never results from a cold when
Chamberlain Cough Remedy is
used. 1t has a world wide reputation
for it's cures. 1t contains no morphine
or other sedative. For sale by all
