The Truth About Huerta.

Mr.. O'Shaughnessy, late charge
daffairs at Mexico City, had ample
opportunity to see and know General
Huerta intimately, and, unlike most
Americans, is disposed to do the die
tator justice. He says he is satisfied
that Huerta did not plan or know
anything about the flag incident at
Tampico until it had happened.
O'Shaughnessy himself gave Huerta
che first news the Mexican president
had of it. Mr.. O'Shaughnessy also
says that the stories of Huerta's hard
drinking and drunken orgies are not
true. He regards Huerta as a man
Of great natural ability. but distinct
lively bull-headed" and if need be
INSCRIPTIONS in promoting his ambi-
tons. "Huerta will try to hold on
and you may depend on his dying
hard" is the word Mr. 0'Shaughnes-
sy gives President Wilson regarding
the man who it now seems is almost
IN the last ditch under the shadow
of grim old Chapultepec.

Cotton and Automobiles.

| Southern farmers have been trying
| to get the markets to use cotton
for baling rather than other ma
| terials, hoping thus to create new
avenue of consumption. The result
of the crusade has not been import
ant. but the Home and Farm notes
that during this same period there
has arisen a new industry which, it
is said, now consumes a million bales
of cotton.
The automobile, says the Home
and Farm, is this new agent OF the
cotton planters. The tire is the in
dispensable article to the automobile;
without good tires the use of the ma
chine would be limited.
The outer covering of these tires
is rubber; and rubber has advanced
enormously.
The inner part of the tire, the fl
bre covered by rubber, is made chief
ly of cotton, and the demand for cot
ton for this purpose is increasing
with every years production.
Every new automobile calls for
more tires, and that means a steadily
charging market for cotton.
This phase of the automobile in
dustry has a special interest for the
farmer of the South.

GETTING THE SAVING HABIT.

From the Savannah News.
In spite of the fact that their
standard of living is constantly get
ting higher, and although automO-
biles are being sold to them by the
train load, the Southern people are
getting more and more into the hab-
it of opening and continuing accounts
with savings banks. According to
the Washington correspondent of the
Philadelphia Public Ledger there are
490,31S depositors of savings in
Southern banks, with 500, 564,206 to
their credit, an average deposit of
1886. These are significant fig
ures," writes the correspondent, as
the South has been struggling for
half a century under especially ad-
verse conditions, which would have
crushed less selt-reliant and master
full people.
The figures given indicate that not
only is the habit of saving growing
in the South, but that the habit of
putting the svngs n n ldioiafh -; =?
putting the savings in an old stock
ing, or in a tea caddy, or hiding them
in the summer time in the stove, is
being broken up. Realization that
banks are far safer than any such
home repositories is becoming more
general, a fact that in some measure
is. owing no doubt to the generally
conservative banking in the South.
And while. the money is safer in the
bank than in the tea caddy or the
stove it is also less likely to be spent
if it is not kept within easy reach
OF the hand.
The increasing savings deposits in
the South mean, of course, increasing
prosperity. The people, while they
are learning how to make more mon
ey are learning also how to save It,
They know that off years come to the
farmer and rainy days to most every
body and they are laying by some
thing in the days when prosperity s
sun is shining in order to be ready
for adversely. Young men in their
first jobs, young couples in their hon
eymoon days can take no step that
is likely to bring more happiness to
them than will the opening of a say
ings account 1t is the first step to-
wards capital, towards financial in
dependence, towards acquiring a
business. towards q solid, respected
position in the community. And it Is
the best contributor to self-cOnfidence
in the average young man that has
yet been discovered.
The savings bank habit is one that
can be unreservedly recommended.
Slaves to the habit are usually slaves
to no bad habits. Savings accounts
are foes of the cigarette, whiskey and
drug habits The young man who
puts q few dollars in the bank out OF
each pay envelope is likely to be
known among the business men OF
the future, and the farmer who banks
his surplus in fat years is not likely
to be in the dumps when lean year
comes around.

\ BOY-A MANA PRESIDENT,

From the Sunday School, Visitor.
His name is Woodrow Wilson. he
was once a bOy-"TOmmT' Wilson.
His father was pastor of the Presby-
terrain church in Stanton Va, when
Thomas Woodrow Wilson was born,
December %, 1856. In later years
he dropped Thomas" from his name.
He was a lawyer, a professor, presi-
dent of Princeton university gov
ernor OF New Jersey, and is now pres
ident of these United States He is
a scholar, an author, a statesman,
and sincere christian. He has
written some history, and is now
making history for others to write.
He sent a note to Washington City
and put an end to the folly of inaug-
ural balls. He cleared the white
house tables of liquors. On April
s, 1913, he delivered his message to
congress in person, thing that had
not been done in one hundred and
twelve years.
During a visit in Staunton recent
ly l made photographs of the house
in which Tommy" Wilson was born.
that the Virginia commissioners will
be urged to have the manse repro
duced at the Panama-Pacific EXPOSE
ton, at San Francisco, Cal, a part
of the Virginia exhibit.
This is President Wilson's estimate
of the Sunday school: mo study is
more important to the child than the
study of the Bible and the truths
which it teaches, and there is no
more effective agency for each study
than the Sunday school. 1t certainly
is one of tho greatest factors in our
lives, in the building of the character
and the development of moral fiber,
for its influence Begins almost as
soon as the child is able to talk and
continues throughout life. The Sun
day school lesson of today is the code
of morals of tomorrw. Too much
attention cannot be paid the work
which the Sunday school is doing"
Boys, keep your eyes on Tommy
Wilson, that was. His future is in
front of him.

School System Indicted.

The Dougherty county grand jury
has. in vigorous and unmistakable
language indicted the public school
system. After acknowledging re-
CENT of the annual report OF the
county superintendent of schools that
bodv delivered this broadside at the
whole public school system;
Our investigation leads US to
saw most emphatically that some
thing should be done to increase
The efficiency of our schools. II II
requires more money, better
aoTiDment or better qualified
teachers they should be provided.
we sigh for the day when the pub
Tic school system shall be no long
er run in the interest of teachers,
hut for the proper education OF
the pupils. In our judgment, the
good old plan of two sessions
dav should be restored, in order
that the pupils may receive some
individual attention and be requir-
ed to study in school rather than
force parents 10 teach them at
home. All parents may not nave
the qualifications 10 teach or the
time to devote to it, but every
teacher should have the qualitica-
tions and the willingness to EN-
plov all the time necessary. The
career of pupils from the Albany
schools at colleges demonstrates
the Justice of this contention
Commenting upon the structures Of
the grand jury the Albany Herald
saws while the grand jury took its
text from the report of the county
of schools it is plain
that its criticism was directed at the
public schools OF this city and adds:
Complaints similar to those
briefly made in general terms by
the grand jury have been heard for
TWO or three years past, and there
are many patrons OF the city
schools (including some OF the
member of the city school board
of education, we are sure) VINO Will
he glad that so representative
BODY as the grand jury has at last
made formal and public protest
against present methods and con-
ditions in our public school sys-
TEN. There are members of the
city board of education who have
felt for some time past that sort
OF general shaking up was needed,
and we violate no confidence in say
ing that the subject has been ser1-
ously discussed by members Of the
board. Now that the grand jury
has broken the ice for them, so
to speak, we may hope that the
members of the board who realize
that something needs to be done to
increase the efficiency Of our city
schools will have the nerve to face
The situation and deal with cOndi-
lions as duty demands.

1t is good news that Georgia farm
ers seem more wide-awake than
those of any other Southern state
in the fight against hog cholera. The
United States department of agricult-
ure has announced that while in 1912
cholera killed 165 out of every 1000
hogs in Georgia it killed only go out
of every 1000 in 1913. There is
apparently no reason why the dis
ease that is costing the country mill
lions of dollars every year cannot be
driven beyond the borders of the state
within a very short time. All that is
necessary is for the farmers to moe
ulate their herds with the serum fur
nished very cheaply by the state.

wages earned by men who have never
taken the trouble to collect it. In
view of the perennial scramble for
municipal jobs of all kinds it would
seem that after once landing jobs
employees would be very careful to
collect their pay. Is it possible that
the amount made ION the side in
