@FORGIyE us OUR CHRIsTMASEs-

20 Lord, forgive us our Christmases
as we forgive those who Christmas
against us!'
Such was part of the prayer sent
up in Life" several seasons ago. II
contains, however, the gist of the
evil which so many are trying to
overcome. Some folk give to others
because "it is expected" and they
look forward to gifts from others be-
cause "it is proper form for them to
send something"
Such commercializing of the Christ
mas spirit is to be deplored, of course,
but fortunately there are yet good
ly number of whole-hearted folk who
utilize the Joy of Christmas to the
full. They offer gifts that the re-
ceiver will appreciate and can use. for
they have purchased judiciously. The
joy of pleasing an appreciative friend
is unsurpassed by any other emotion
of the season. And to know that one
has friends yet living who really are
friends makes life worth the living
Let's all enter into the Joy of the
season. Give usefully, for the pleas
ure of pleasing others, and not be-
cause something in return is expect
ed.
The Christmas season is one of
good fellowship.

SHIP CAR LOADS OF
HOGS AND CATTLE
RichIand Citizens Are Finding Some
thing to Sell Besides Cotton.
Realize Nice Profits.

Two interesting news items from
the current issue of the Richland
News are reproduced below:
Messrs. Coffin Bros. of this city
shipped another car load of cattle
this week. This is the second car this
firm has shipped during the fall and
winter, and it is probable that several
other car loads will be shipped later.
This firm has established a wide rep
utation througout this section for the
high market prices they are paying,
and many farmers are bringing their
cattle here.
Mr.. R. J. Dixon, one of Richland' S
most prosperous business men who is
a successful farmer as well, shipp-
ed a car load of hogs to Columbus
last week and realized handsome
sum in exchange. Some few other
farmers Joined in completing the car
load. The price received was about
seven cents per pound gross weight.

THESE EGGS HAD MORE THAN
PASSED SECOND BIRTHDAY
And Couldn't Be Introduced Into
Good Society in PENNSYLVANIA.

And Couldn't BE introduced Into
Good Society in Pennsylvania.
There is a difference of opinion as
to the age beyond which an egg
should not be introduced into soci-
ETY. In Pennsylvania the legal age
at which an egg should be retired is
eight months, and so when a ship
ment of 288,O00 eggs reached Phil
adelphia from Dunlap, Iowa, after
they had passed their second birth
day the consignees were told they
would have one week in which to get
the undesirable visitors out of the
state. In other states, presumably,
two-year-old eggs are still young
enough to be received anywhere,
which proves that while an egg may
be good in one state it may not be
good if it crosses the state line. The
question of when an egg is good may
not be answered, therefore, in many
cases until an answer is had to the
question, Where is the egg?

SENATOR BACON'S
WILL is ATTACKED
Widow and Daughter File Petition in
the Superior Court to Break
the Document.

MACON, Cattle will OF the late
Senator A. o. Bacon was attacked
here today in petition filed in the
superior court by lawyers represent
ing Mrs. Virginia Lamar Bacon, the
late senator's widow, and Mrs. Louise
Bacon Sparks, his only living daugh-
ter. Three children of the late Mrs.
Curry, another Of Senator Bacon
daughters, are made parties to the
suit
The petitioners especially seek to
have set aside the senator's gift of
park to the city of Macon and a
bequest of $4,000 in street railway
bonds to be used in improving the
park. 1t is claimed in the petition
that the senator had been holding
and accommodating property since
1879 in trust for Mrs. Bacon and
their children. For this reason it is
claimed that he died intestate and
that his trust ceased at his death.
The heirs at law ask that they be
given fee simple title to the property.

HALF YOUR Living
FROM YOUR GARDEN
Big Saving to Farmer and City Man
is Possible Through Home
Grown Vegetables

Atlanta, Ga.-(Special.)- 1.-The farm
er who makes and keeps going this
year a real home garden, will save
fully One-ha1f the money he has Deen
in the habit of paying the supply mer-
chant for his food supplies. The man
with a back yard city lot turned into
a garden, can save on his living eX-
penses in the same proportion.
The man in the city has been hit
by the war just as hard as the man
in the country, and here in Atlanta the
Agricultural Committee Of the Atlanta
Chamber of Commerce, Of which H. G.
Hastings is chairman, is actively en-
couraging the back yard city garden
as one of the most effective steps in
solving the problem Of living. One At
Iantan made $3.50 worth Of vegetables
last year on less than one-sixteenth OF
an acre. Others have been encOurag-
ed to try it, and this spring will see
Atlanta full Of home gardens.
1.-THE farmers of the South, in my
opinion" Mr.. Hastings said, 'haVe
well learned the lesson Of the cotton
crisis, and l believe they are going to
keep it learned. They realize now as
never before that they must make
cotton their servant instead Of their
master, and making food crops is the
only way to do it.
"The first big step toward the solu-
ton of this problem is the home gar
den-an all-the-year-round garden
one that is kept busy growing food for
the table every month in the year. A
garden like this means a saving Of
half the living expense Of any family;
It is worth more as money saver
than any five acres Of cotton ever
grown.
"City families pay fancy prices for
vegetables and other food products
which the farmer can have on his Ia
BILE without the expenditure Of dol
lar. and this would mean to the farm
ers Of the South an aggregate saving
of millions of dollars they are now
paying out annually for food supplies,
that might be turned into bank &C
counts"

MARITIME FOR ALCOHOL
SENATE DEBATES PROHIBITION
FOR DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.
John Sharp Williams Says He Loves
His Teddy, But Condemns Whis-
key. Some Vigorous Talk.

| WASHINGTON, D. C.-Prohibi-
ton was debated in the senate nearly
/ all of today without vote being
reached on Senator Sheppard's mo-
! ton to suspend the rules to consider
! an amendment to the Distrist of Co
lumbia appropriation bill, which
prohibits the sale of liquor in the
capital
Senator MARITIME attacked the pro-
posed legislation as in violation of
the personal liberty of residents in
the District. He declared the Gre
ator must have planned that men
should use alcohol when he made all
the most nutritious fruits and grains
rich in that stimulant.
This drew a vigorous reply from
Senator Bristow. 1T is to be regret
ted that any state should have a sen
ator who would stand on this floor
and defend the hated traffic. said
the Kansas senator.
Senators Stone, Sutherland and
others favored referring the question
to the people of the District. Sena-
tor Works agreed that such a course
would be best provided if women
were allowed to vote, and Senator
Williams approved the referendum,
although he said he would vote for
prohibition in any case.
Senator Williams said he had
changed his opinion since the propos-
ed prohibition in Mississippi and
challenged senators to show that
whiskey ever had bettered any one.
81 love teddy as we'll as did Dan
iel Webster or George Washington, -
he said, "but it never did me or any
body else any good except to make
them feel better for a little while. :"
Senator Owen favored the adop-
ton of the amendment and of ma
tional prohibition, but said provision
should be made to compensate own
ers of properties destroyed.
Georgia Figures in Debate.
The alleged inefFicacy of prohibi-
ton in Georgia was cited by Senator
MARITIME as an argument against pro-
Inhibition, whereupon Senator Smith
insisted that prohibition was enforc-
ed in Georgia. Mr.. MARITIME thereup-
on produced the report of the inter-
nal revenue collector to show that
876 illicit stills were seized in Geor-
gia last year.
After reading these figures MIR.
MARITIME showed the report under the
nose 4 of Senator LaFollette and re-
marked in a tone audible in the gal
Ieries:
Its a hell of a record; it's hell
of a record"
Mr.. LaFollette leaned back and
laughed immoderately.
Raising his voice the Jersey sena-
tor observed further that once he
visited Georgia and while there saw
bottles of Schlitz.
eff the senator from New Jersey
found one such place in the city Of
Atlanta still l say that his charge
that prohibition in the state is a
failure is not sustained, insisted
Senator Smith.
