BACK-TO.THE-LAND COLONIES.

Lonesomeness, lack Of opportunity
for social life, poor marketing facil-
tiles, have been among the strongest
objections to and the most obvious
causes of failure in the back-to-the-
land movement. People from the
bustling, crowded cities couldn't en-
dure the isolation of country life eves
though it took them from the wretch
ed tenemeats. And they couldn't
make their farming a success on land
cut off from transportation by poor
location.
To overcome these difficulties by
constructive assistance is the work of
the National Forward-to-the-land
League. The league has u wide range
of activity. In the first place ii
stands ready to give unbiased advice
concerning the quality of the land the
prospective farmer is considering and
its location in regard to transporta-
ton. 1t advises people of small means
to buy where there are at least fifty
similar holdings. 1t sends land in
structors and market experts to teach
these communities how to cooperate
as a business unit in managing the
cultivation of their land and in hand
ling their produce.
The league, assisted by the Commits
siOner of Education at Washington, or
ganizes modern rural school around
which the social life of adults as we'll
as young people may be conferred. A
\. VI. {. \. secretary, a sanitary en-
gineer, recreation grounds and a di-
rector for them are some of the ad-
Nantages the league plans to make
possible for these little communities
OF course, when the league advises
people 10 make the change from ur-
Ian to rural life it tries to select peo-
PIE vino arc fitted for such a change
And it makes provision for some prac-
deal preliminary training and educa-
ton fer tie new work. Its advice is
G.sIatcro.tpi and genuinely helpful
and sccHr 20 facilitate adjustment 10
the new environment. 1t is an ex-
yCllent project, deserving the support
Of all who recognize the problem and
are wise enough to be interested in its
solution.

As a lethal agency the trolley car is

July's grand total is greatest. Falls
are much more frequent in December

festivals? And why did bicycles kill
three and motorcycles none?

10000 WORKERS Strike
FOR AN EIGHT HOUR DAD
WALK OUT OF NEW YORK CLOTH
ING MAKERS TO SPREAD TO
NEWARK AND PHILADELPHIA.

New York, Dec. 15.-Labor's move
ment for an eighthour day was inaug
urated among New York's clothing
workers today with a strike which
will throw more than 10000 persons
out CT work if the leaders plans are
carried out. The walkout is expected
to extend to Newark and perhaps to
Philadelphia, which would affect thou
sands of other workers.
The strike call, addressed to cut
ters, coat workers, dressmagers and
pants makers employed in the mems
and children's clCthing branches, was
made public today by the Almagamat-
ed Clothing Workers OF America,
which organized the movement. The
call contains the following sentence:
Eight hours for work. eight hours
for sleep and eight hours to live, is
what all workers are striving for,
I'VE want some share of this great
prosperity to meet the high cost of
living. Be orderly and permit no dis
order"
Besides an eighthour day the work
ers demand a weekly wage increase
OF 50. Ninety per cent of the employ
ees to whom the strike call was ad
dressed are declared to be members
OF the amalgamated body. the others
working in non-union shops.

IN PROSPEROUS YEAR TAX
PAYERS COME UP SHORT

Here's a situation that is very much
son of prosperity that the people of
Crisp county are enjoying, thinks Tax
Collector w. j. Musselwhite. Just a
fraction over one-fourth of the tax
payers of the county have paid their
state and county taxes for 1916. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Musselwhite if just
one man had to work the job, he
wouldn't have time to tear out the
receipts and stamp them in the two
days, Monday and Tuesday, left to the
tax payers in which to meet this OBJ
LEGATION. Z
During no previous year within the
experience of Mr.. Musselwhite as tax
collector have the property holders
been so delinquent in paying their
taxes, and this Notwithstanding Is
and 20 cent cotton and general good
times. The tax payers of the country
precincts have paid up better than
those of the Cordele district.
The additional cost to the delin-
qnent tax payer after the 18th, Tues
day, will be one dollar, so cents for
collecting and so cents for the fl ia.
The Tax Collector wants EN- to hurry
up and get settled up before the close
of tho 10Th if possible.
The same condition as applied to
the state and county tax payers is
true of the city tax payers. City Clerk

OLD MACON STATION
TO HOUSE CHAUTAUQUA

Macon, Dec. 15.--The old Union pas
senger station which has been aban-
dCned by the railroads entering Macon
and which is now standing idle, will
probably be the meeting place for the
first chautauqua Of the south, which
is to be held in Macon in March under
the auspices of the Lake Chautauqua
association and the Southern Con-
ference on Education and Industry.
The suggestion that the old station
be converted into an auditorium for
this purpose was made some time ago
by several Macon people. Today let
ter was received from President w. A.
Winburn, of the Central Of Georgia
railway, announcing that the plan can
be carried out. With the expenditure
of small sum of money the big train
shed can be enclosed with. canvass
walls and it will make an ideal au-
ditorium. capable of seating four or
five thousand people The arrangement
is such that the present waiting rooms
and lobby can be converted into big
stage.
There is now no question about Ma
con being the permanent location for
the Chautauqua Of the South. DIR. A.
P. Bourland, SECRETARY of the South
ern Conference on Education and In
dustry, has so stated in letters sent to
various cities contesting for the chau-
tauqua.
In the meantime chorus of 3S
voices is now undergoing training here
for the coming chautauqua, while the
board of directors of the Chautauqua
association is planning a meeting in
Macon January for the purpose of
compelling all final details. A program
of attractions covering period of
three weeks is now being mapped out
by the officers.
