The comet. (Johnson City, Tenn.) 1884-1916, 1914-09-10

Long time ago this school house
Had its deep foundations laid,
Long time before the cost so great
Had all been fully paid;
But day by day it grew up
Like a beautiful thought or flower
And soon Wen see old glory
Wave from its lofty tower.
All hail great hill of science!
With such temple grand
On thy proud summit shining
To educate the land;
Thy poets and thy song birds
Queens of the classic pen
In coming years may strike the Tyre
OF Greece and Rome again.
All hail great Johnson City
Queen of the south to be,
With millions spent for buildings
In the last few years we see,
Who shall foretell thy greatness
Or who afar would roam
When thy mountain. airs and sushine
Invite the world to come.
Great men rule the nation
We pray may come from you
Thy temple be made holy
With teachers good and true,
That all may enter the city
Whose towers are holy indeed
The city the shining angel
Hath measured with red.

GEN. I. C. RYE IS
READY FOR BATTHE
tspec,ial Correspondence.l

| topeclaI COfreSpOndenceI
Nashville, Sept. 10.-The democratic
1ominee for governor of Tennessee is
practically ready to set forth in his
effort to win back the state to democ-
racy. His first speech, deferred by
his temporary illness, will be in the
young manhood. amongst people who
believe in him and are proud of his
career. He will make a thorough
canvass, visiting nearly every county
and meeting the people face to face.
He is strong speaker and forceful
debater. Before election day it is be-
lieved that the personality of the two
men will become decided issue.
Which of the two will soonest and
most surely bring sanity to bear upon
public affairs and restore the politics
of the state to healthful ehquillbri'. IN :?
Which is most nKely to give the
state rest and peace and which will
keep the trouble pot from boiling? I
Gov. Hoopers success in securing
office has come from the agitation in
which he has kept the state. Quiet
means his retirement. AS long as
turmoil continues he hopes to ride its
waves. He is a petrol and demands
stormy weather. 1t will be difficult
for him to show wherein his incum-
bency has profited the state.
What citizen ever points with pride
to any advancement or achievement
of the state during the past four years?
They have been prominently Hoop
er years. Years of dissensions and
scandals, loss of credit and retrogres-
sion.
Inspiring conditions no longer ex-
ist. In every department Of the state
government pot-house politics has
been playing. Prohibition and law en-
forcement have been made means to
individual political ends. Hooper has
taken them over to advance himself
and as an asset for his party's ulti-
mate complete domination He has
treated the state debt matter almost
with disdain and has made the states
credit by-word. In hfs lust for
power he has gone far beyond any
predecessor in the high Office and re-
s3ected no traditions. He has domi-
mated legislatures and made of the ju-
dietary, as far as he could, political
puppet. The banking control, the se-
lection of school teachers, the insul-
ance department, our public institu.
tions, have all been made to play a
part in his scheme for keeping him
self in Office.
Is such man who has so signally
failed in two terms likely to give the
ate anything very different In a
third term?
Can he be relied upon to give fana-
ticism rest or luil prejudice to stun
Der?
When he won his first race he had
no record and when he won his second
it was through plea that he had not
been given time TO complete his work
This time he has record and he!
been given abundant time. He Las
failed.
The democratic candidate Is ma.
OF pure private life. with seraic
record in his political career whlc
gives assurance of qualities and cuali
fications for higher place. He is not
an agitator Thoroughly well poised
intellectually as highly gifted as any
man in the politics OF the state. he ap-
preciates the states needs and win
do his whole duty as governor. In

Specialize In What You DO Best.
The girl with experience in cannins
knows the products with which she
has the most success, and should en-
deavor to sell only those in which she
excels. 1t is always best to specialize
and work up reputation for some
particular kind of goods, as did the
women already mentioned One girl
may make a feature of catchsup, an.
other may find her best product is
pickles, while another may put up a
specially attractive can of peppers,
caulifower, peaches, apples, or toma-
toes.
People of means are most likely to
want "home-canned" products, and
these are the ones TO see. Many
housewives living in the cities who
leave home for the country during the
summer months will gladly give the
farmers daughter an order to can
enough tomatoes to last them all win
ter. 1t is best to take orders ahead as
far as possible.
The young woman who starts out to
sell her products will, of course, dress
neatly and take samples of her prod
ucts put up in an attractive form.
Glass jars will show products much
better than tins. but if tins are found
to be less expensive, they may be used
tor all except the show products.
The managers of the best hotels and
restaurants in the neighborhood, the
stewards of social clubs in the cities.
the managers of railroad dining cars
and many retail grocers will be glad
10 use the products of the girl who
does her canning at home. These
products are likely to show individual
care and to be prepared neatly of good
materials, and on the shelves of re-
tail store are likely to attract atten-
ion from the best customers.
If young woman knows by expert
ence that her products are first-class,
she need not hesitate to put a good
price on them. Home-canned goods.

My dear Sir:
From time to time tourists and
prospective investors coming into
Brunswick have told us that railroad
employees have by their unfl&ttering
remarks given them a false impress
sion OF the city and its surroundings
and the lands of Glynn county.

that you will bulletin your employees

LANCASTER FANS
ENJOY TWO BALL GAMES,

The Swain show people had a ball
team with them and two games We're
played on the home grounds on Thurs
day and Friday of last week. The
games We're really good ones, but to
the tall hungry fans o. Lancaster they
appeared equal to games between the
Reds and Giants with Matthewson and
Ames pitching. The first game was
with John Tatem's Point Leavell team.
and was a tight one, the Swan team
getting OFF to a good lead, but Tatem's
boys came up from behind and in the
first half of the ninth inning tina score
stood to in favor of Tatem's boys,
when a home run wrs knocked by
Luther Broaddus, which the Swain
people claimed to be foul, and when
manager Tatem refused to allow it.
the umpire. one of the show men,
declared a forfeited game, 9 to 0 in
favor of the SWANS However it was
an interesting game and the actual
result was 7 to in favor of the Point
Leavell team. On Friday afternoon a
picked up team of Lancaster boys
played the Swain team. the result being
8 to Z in favor of the Lancaster boys.
