Chinquepin Time.
From the Triton Gazette.

Now The Dawson News starts train of old
memories with this:
1t is chnquepin- hunting time in Georgia, and
these are great days for the youngsters They
take US back few years to happy boy
hood in little country home in a Middle
Georgia county.
The chinquepin is by no means confined to Mid
die Georgia. They grew in plenty along the red
pebble ridges in this section when the country
covered with carpet of wregrass. Not on
small trees, in the higher attitudes, but small
bushes, the bushes grouped in clusters.
1t was great fun in the fall to hunt them, the
tiny nuts peeping out from the open burr like the
brown eye of q Georgia lass across the aisle in
church. They could nestle in many secret places
requiring a sharp eye to find them, and many
from burrs not open were extracted by tie simple
method of knocking off the covering between two
lightwood knots. But it fun while hunting
the chinquepn to step with barefoot dis
carded burr, although that often happened
South Georgia has the chinquepn like she has
the majority of other things that make life worth
living, but because the bulk of them have gone
with the wiregrass the younger generation misses
a good many things the older enjoyed

Harvest Time.

This is the climax of the perfect year.
The winters cold. the promise of spring,
The summer days which joy and gladness
bring,
All find fruition and fulfllment here.
The yellow grain which rippIed glad and blithe
In every vagrant wind, whose worth is more
Than all the minted gold earth holds in store
Has given its treasure to the reaper's scythe.
With gold and crimson fruit trees bend low;
The stately corn lifts high its ripened ears;
In field and garden waiting riches grow,
And laughing earth bids man forget his
fears.
Although in anger nature sometimes lifts her
hand,
Somewhere her harvest blessing rests upon
the land.

THE PEDESTRIANS PART IN TRAFFIC SAFETY

From the Atlanta Journal
Street cars and automobiles are subject to numer-
Gus regulations for public safety, with particular
reference to pedestrians. As matter of self inter
est as we'll as legal cOnstrant moormen and drivers
are constantly alert to avoid accidents. There are
a few reckless exceptions, but watchfuness is the
rule.
In city of Atlanta's size however, the pedes-
trian himself must observe certain regulations if
he is to GO in safety. 1t does not take two to
cause an accident, but it does take two to prevent
an accident on crowded streets and at dangerous
crossings. Persons afoot should remember their
especial responsibility. One risk they should
take is that of attempting to cross a thorough
fare in the rear of a street car from which they
have just alighted; for in doing so they. cannot
see street car or automobile which may be COM
ing from the opposite direction, can they
themselves be seen by the motOrman or driver.
The only safe plan is to wait on the sidewalk
until the way is clear. CareIessness in drivers is
never eXcusabe; but carefulness in pedestrians is
a virtue well worth cultivating

Why not let Mr.. Dorsey alone? He has never
intimated that he will be candidate for governor,
and those of our contemporaries that are continu-
ally nagging him may find to their chagrin that
they have carried it too far. A man can stand
so much of thing and no more, and if they keep
it up they may make a governor of the Atlanta
socitor-general in spite of themselves. Mr. Dor
sew is an able and a popular Georgian-no one
will deny that-and if he wants to he has just as
much right to run for governor as anybody else.
