There is also that new primary cleo
ton law, which should be defeated and
forgotten. This proposed law provides
that candidates for Office, unless they
have n majority of all votes, out of a
herbal race, shall run a second pri-
mary We have entirely too many
elections now for the good of the coun-
try, AMI the people are generally tired
of elections, politics and agitators, but
this Internal law would debar poor
man from ever running for an o&ice, as
few can stand the expense of one cleo
ton, and two would knock them out of
the boxes and put the offices in the
hands of the rich. If there is going to
be any changes at all it would be a
great deal better to abolish the pres
ent primary law let the general cleo
ton settle the whole thing, making
every tub stand on its own bottom.

HOW OUR BANKS CREW..

trying 20 keep the electric light and
mower ulant out of the hands of its
! lust owners can never DO anything for
community but go on raising taxes
and-increasing the size Of the GENE
teries as the years go by. 1t wasn's
Judgment, safety AMI conservatism
that made the Cordele banks able to
show what they have in their recent
statements. We are rather impressed
with tie fact that it was their deter
mination to grow. 1t was get-up-and
get, sheer work, hard down hustling
for the business that belongs to the
commlalty. There is not half the
harm in operating on a borrowed dol
lar as there is in letting other cen
tiers lone in our town and carry away
our bank deposits. Our banks are
growing because they are making
themselves worthy Of the business.
AS long as this is the case no one need
worry ABOUT their growing. And with
them The business community must
grow. They have nearly doubled the
amount &C cash in their vaults that
they lad year ago. Indeed one OF
them has more than twice the amount
1t had twelve months ago. Judgment,
safety and conservatism could never
explain that. BY working for it, our
banks may do as well another year.
The beauty about it is the fact that
they know this.
There are several enterprises in
Cordele that have existed for twenty
years on judgment, safety and conser-
vatism. Commercially they are not
worth one dollar more than they were
a score of years ago. The atmosphere
is the same; the coloring on the walls
is Just as it was; the buildings are
lust as they were-have the same num-
Der of entrances and exits; the same
number Of bricks are there; it is the
same distance across the street; the
same men go and come; they have
the same ideas about things; and they
still think new enterprises are danger

OUR COUNTRY SCHOOLS.


Crisp county in its farming districts
enjoys great advantages over other
rural sections of Georgia in that its
farmers live on their farms, have good
country homes and in this way main
tain a higher standard of living than
other counties. There is more real
wealth in Crisp county farms than
ahere is in the farms of Dougherty
or Sumter Counties. In these later
named counties the farm owners re.
side in town and coloced tenants are
left to do what they can with the farm
The difference makes Crisp far more

HERMIT ADJUDGED INSANE.
Aged Smith County Man To Be Cared
for by a Guardian.

Smith Center, Kan, Feb. dick
S. D'YounS, livi- g near the southeast
corner of Lincoln township, has been
taken before Probate Judge Jarvis
and adjudged of unsound mind.
D'Young's case is a peculiar one. He
is SO years of age and for more than
40 years has lived like ! ermit on so
acres of land down there. For years
he has not been off the place, nor
would he allow his neighbors to offer
him any assistance The last few
years the land has not been farmed
and has grown up in a wilderness of
weeds. He has gotten to the point
where he was no LONGER able to take
care of himself and his neighbors de-
cided that sonnet ing must be done to
relieve him.
It was found that I'Young had in
his possession about $3.50 in cur
rency.
Owing to the mans extreme age it
was not thought best to commit him
to an asylum, and Lane Staauldine.
one of his neighbors, was appointed as
his guardian. He took the old man
back home where he will be cared for.

TO Return OU. S.
Kansas Missionary Coming
Home From Bitlis, Armenia.
Miss Myrtle Shane Was Re-
ported Slain by Kurds.

Lawrence, Kan, Feb. Relatives
of Miss Myrtle Shane, the Kansas mis-
Sionary who has been working in Ar
menia through all the misfortunes of
that country during the war, have
heard indirectly from her through the
Congregationalist board of missions
Miss Shane has left the dangerous To-
cality of Bitlis, where she was sta
toned, and gone to Harpoot. Turkey,
where it is believed she will be safe
from all dangers.
1t is thought by the Lawrence rel
atives that Miss Shane will shortly re-
turn to this country for a short time
at least, and it is their hope that she
will not go back to Turkey until after
the war is ended.
Some months ago Miss Shane was
reported killed in the Armenian mas
sacres, and several anxious weeks
passed before her friends and rela-
tives here learned that she had cs-
capped all harm.
A letter from the missionary board
telling of Miss Shane's determination
to leave Bitlis with Miss MacLaren,
another missionary, said it was ques-
tionabIe just how they could get from
Bitlis to Harpoot without a man COM
panion to protect them. But a later
report announced that they had made
the trip in safety.
Miss Shane may return to the
United States by way of Beirut. II
is said that she may experience some
delay in getting away, as the Turkish
authorities are more unwilling than
! formerly to allow the missionaries tC
! leave the country.
