ANNUAL STANTON DAY.

The people of Georgia should be
proud to see the tribute paid to her
favorite bard, Frank L. Stanton. The
Americas Recorder congratui-
ates the movement as it did editorially
several months ago.
The people of this section of the
state should take a peculiar pride in
the observance of Stanton Day. 1t
was within a few miles of this city
that he first came into prominence.
While conducting weekly newspaper
at Smithville, in Lee county, his writ
ings gained prominence and there he
attracted the attention which brought
him into daily journalism.
Indiana rejoiced several months ago
to honor the birthday of James Whit
comb Riley, and certainly Georgia can
do no less Men in all walks of life
joined in tributes to the "Hoosier
Poet"
Stanton is our poet-he sings of the
things we love, and writes in the vain
We like. Mighty LAX A Rose" is mus
ic for the gods, and Just A Wearin'
For You" touches the harp strings of
every kindred soul
Official and private Georgia should
join in the movement, and make per-
petual the honor which was conferred
on Frank l.. Stanton on his birthday,
February 22nd.

DISTASTEFUL WAR.

Many forces and events have con-
tributed to make the European war dis
tasteful in the eyes of all good and
whole-souled Americans. Not the least
of them in the abominable names
which have played in the forefront Of
the war news. The names themselves
seemed to be battle with the alphabet
il an effort to use every Letter without
regard for euphony or reason.
The Kaiser was afflicted with a dis
ease which name in itself made his
recovery impossible. The French were
so unfortunate as to have some of
their names tattled about until pro-
runciation became an impossibility.
Tie Russians have certainly been han
dicapped.
A tribute is paid in the following
paragraph from the Savannah Morn
ing News
THE Russians have taken Mush.
They surrendered vodka long ago. One
ii the most surprising facts about the
eastern part of Turkey is the SIMPLE
ity of some of its city names whea
compared with other names that are
tongue twisters. Compare Mush, for
example, with Karagebek, Van with
kelkid Chidfdik and Khanek Ashaghi,
and Cop (Which was not named in
honor of the Grand Old Party, with
Feishkhabur and Gumushkhane, to
say nothing of Jezire-ib in-O Omar, Per-
kanguk, and Pasur Akchesin."

BETTER THAN NEVER.

The old adage better late than new
err" applies whit peculiar force to
Macon in view of the recent wave of
action which has tabooed certain men
aces of that city.
A beautiful young girl; blossoming
IL that radiance which all mankind
worships, paid the penalty with her
life for conditions existing in that
city. After it happened, the next best
thing was done by movements to STOP
d recurrence so far as was reasonable.
1t is sad to contemplate that this
young lady was made to pay the price
TO- a debauchery which undoubtedly
existed in Macon. 1t existed-or there
would have been no waves of resent
ment.
It came too late to save her life-but
10. TOO late to save some other life
