TAKES A ROSY VIEW.

A correspondent who takes very
rosy view of life, and the situation in
which the world find itself writes as
follows:
There is a query in many Of the
minds of thinking people as to whether
the inhabitants of the globe are getting
better ar are deteriorating.
Sincerity is one of the purest prin-
ciples and 1 should say it is nearly a
virtue. Are we sincere in all our rela-
tions in life, business and otherwise
Would we sacrifice right princi-
pie in order to gain something over
the heads of our fellows?
81 do not ask this to start con-
troversy, but that we may each look
into the state of ourselves.
This great world war, l believe,
will be the cradle of a great religion.
One which will not ask its deVotees
to kneel in order to show zeal in their
religious life, but will desire its mem
bers to act at all times as though the
great all-seeing eye was upon them, in
their business dealings especially. Its
members will not be judged by what
they are, and not by what they have.
q believe that the brotherhood of
man is a glorious possibility, and that
this war with all it's heinous butchery
will ultimately work out to the gen
eral good Of humanity. Man is being
judged by his mental efficiency, when a
man is wanted for a responsible posi-
ton in the state, as we'll as his finan-
cial standing. | believe that this old
earth has a glorious future, and will
one day be fine place to live in for
everybody And that good old United
States of America will show the world
what brotherhood is"

WHAT is IT?
this hour.

In few short weeks the soldier boys
I of the Americas Light Infantry will be
packing their kits preparing for visit
to st. Simon's Island, near Brunswick,
where the state annual encampment of
the National Guards will be held. Some
law requires that each member of the
company who attends the encampmenr
must have been a bona fide member of
TIE organization at least sixty days
prior to the encampment.
The Americas Light Infantry is one
of the crack organization of the state
/ Il is commanded by an excellent staff
of officers and its ranks are composed
of some of the finest young men of
this city.
But seeing as we think we do, the A.
L. l. has not received the cooperation
4
which they might from the people at
large in this city. 1t reminds us of
kipling's Tommy Atkins" when the
English poet rocks along and tells
them what Tommy is and how little
he's thought of-but Its special train
,, for Aatkins when there's trouble in the
wind And tits thin red line of 'eroes
when the band begins to play"
Military organizations are not prop
erly appreciated in times of peace. And
WHO would be without them? Every
night you go to bed with the happy
consolation that standing over you is a
body of young men sworn and prepared
to protect you as long as life affords
them sustenance.
When the violence of the mob begins
its vengeance it's the local soldiers who
stand their ground and protect your
home. But in times of peace they pass
almost contemptuous before you.
Unlike many organizations of it's kind
the A. l.. l. doesn't even possess a flag
presented by their own people. 1t was
ia happy moment back in the day of
1861 when the local companies hastily
recruited passed away into Virginia
with handsome silk flag of the Stars
ard Bars floating over them.
There's something wrong. You
want them when there's trouble in the
wind, but in times of peace you are
ccntented to let them go their way and

THE LAW FOR ALL.

Atlanta has started to ENFORCE the
prohibition laws with vengeance.
Large fines and chain gang sentences
are marking the first hours of the law
in Fulton county. This is as it SHOULD
be.
For over nine years Georgia has liv-
ed under half and half lava prohi-
bition law which was not prohibition.
But on May LIST law went into effect
which is stringent and specific.
In this connection we wish to join in
hearty commentator of the editorial
utterances of the Atlanta Constitution
VIXEN they clearly brought ofrth the
connection of the federal government
with our state prohibition laws.
Georgia newspapers are now for,
hidden to cary liquor advertising. No
out-of-state paper can circulate in
Georgia containing these advertise
ments. ut the United States govern
ment allows its mails to transport hun
dreds of pounds of advertising matter,
a veritable deluge of whiskey circulars.
II is not right for the federal govern
ment to use it's poer in this manner
directly in contradiction with the state
laws.
We are supposed to have a prohibit
ton congress, and at least a Demo
cratic congress. No party is outspoken
10 opposition to prohibition, and it has
boone duty for our congressman tc
fulfill in having a law enacted which
will protect the states.
AS long as congress has dabbled in
everything else under the sun it is moi
exactly fair to forego an opportunity
to pay its respect to the cause of pro
hibition.
The new law is for poor and rich
alike, and it must be enforced with
this idea in view if it becomes a sue
cess. Judge Ben Hill, of the superio;
court in Atlanta, made the statement
that Georgia had been living in vir.
tual state of anarchy-and he was
not far wrong A prohibition law strin.
gent enough to forbid the wholesale
distribution of liquor in cities like Sa-
vannah and Augusta has been on the
statute books-but it was enforced il
about the same way an edict from the
Kaiser would be in the United States.
Georgia looks towards her officials il
this hour.

THE MOST UNKINDEST CUT.

This paragraph came from the es.
teemed Covington News:
"Cranston Williams, editor of the
Americas mes-Recorder, remarked tc
friend the other day, that he may be
kid in age, but he had the looks and
brains of an old veteran"
Without comment we deny the al
legation and challenge its sponsor
But standing side by side by the Gov
ington News we insist upon our ability
IN comparison. So, say your say.

A most versatile man is the fellow
that can carry on his business with

While he makes love with his eyes, and
evolves a political plot in his mind
