The Value of Today.
. in the Philadelphia Press.

Letter in the Philadelphia Press.
While walking in the streets one is
often greeted with the cheerful re-
mark: IT'S a nice day." Good days
and bad days exist only in the mind.
The weather has nothing to do with
1t. Each day is what We make it.
Suppose you get the word that your
salary has been doubled or that .
forgotten uncle has left you 100000.
What do you care about the weather
then? Or. suppose the person you love
is dying. Unexpectedly a turn for the
better comes. The doctor says your
dear one will live. What il it is hotter
than Tophet? 1t Is a good day. great
day, a happy day. 1t Is what We think
and feel about 1t that makes each day
what 1t Is.
Put down in the notebook of your
soul the poet Runeberg's thought.
Each day Is a life" When you get up
in the morning throw back your shoul-
ders, take a deep breath and meet the
new day like man. Say to yourself:
Another day, another life!" For all
we know, 1t may be the only day We
shall ever have. Let us make it the
best day we can. Let us strive to
make II a day worth while. to move q
step forward in our work. do all the
good we can, get all the happiness We
can today.
Right now is the only time you can
control Yesterday is a record To-
morrow is a secret. Today Is yours
and mine.

]. H. HAWKINS NAMED
AS COURT REPORTER

At the close of the adjourned Term
of Cobb Superior Court held this
week Honorable H. L. Patterson,
Judge, passed an order relieving Mr..
C. B. Willingham of his duties as
stenographer and reporter of the
Blue Ridge Circuit and at the same
passed an order appointing M. ].
H. Hawkins, of Marietta, Ca, to
this position. 1t is but fair to say
that Mr.. Willingham was not re-
moved from this position on account
of any inefficience on his part, as
will be shown by the order of judge
Patterson.
Mr.. Hawkins is a young man; was
born in Forsyth County, Georgia,
and has spent most of his life in
Marietta, where he has host CT
friends who are rejoicing with him
over his appointment. He began as
a stenographer about ten years ago,
in the office of Herbert Clay, and
has been in his employment, and in
the employment of Clay & Morris,
attorneys, for about ten years, dur
ing which time he has demonstrat-
ed his ability as a pains-taking, ra-
p1d and accurate reporter. For the
past two years he has been connect
ed with Mr.. Clay as Solicitor-G General
over the circuit, and some of the
work before the Grand Jury has de-
volved upon him, in addition to his
other duties, and by his pains-taking
careful and courteous treatment of
those with whom he has come in ,.n-
tact, he has made a large number of
friends throughout the circuit who
Ill be glad to hear of his appoi -
ment. He is a young man of sterI-
ing worth, honesty and sobriety,
and is regarded by those who know
him as one of the best stenographers
and typists ever seen in this section
of the country, and it goes without
saying that he will be able to hold
down the position to which he has
been appointed.
Mr.. Hawkins is no doubt the
youngest court reporter in Georgia,
being only twenty-five years of age,
and when the important duties of
the office, and the enormous amount
of work connected with it are con-
sidered, his appointment is an ex-
ceedingly high compliment to him.

DEATH OF HOWARD CONN.

The death of this little boy at the
age of two years and six months was
unusually sad. He was burned to
death on the 18th of January while
alone in the house. His father was
at work and his mother had gone to
the spring for water.
The burial was in the family ce-
metery on Thursday the 14th of Jan.
Mr.. Charlie Lutz and Mr.. Law
renee sang "Shall We Gather at the
River" at the funeral services. 1t is
a terrible blow to his parents.
"A precious one from them is gone
voice they loved is stilled;
A place is vacant in their home
Which never can be filled ="
Still they feel he has only gone
before to his heavenly home and
they hope some sweet day to meet
him again.
