Lately some of the good lady mem

regarding rumors of the sale of bee

communication was furnished one o
the other local papers and there i
was not printed. We do not know
whether it was offered the third pa
per for publication.
The ladies began pulling our hair
forthwith. The agitation became s.
warm that we offered to join the ladies
and go down to one of the drug stores
where we knew the drink was being
sold. There we would as friends urge
the proprietor to desist on account OF
the bad light in which it was putting
him and his business. We advised

LETTER TO THE EDITOR.

Editor The Cordele Dispatch
We have read with much concern
and regret your article headed "EX-
tremes are bad" and we deplore your
stand, as Editor of one of our papers,
for your thoughts are supposed to be
the concentrated expressions of local
thought. You can do much good, Or
much harm; for our daily and weekly
papers go long way toward mould
ing public opinion.
We regret that we have an editor
who believes in open Sabbath desecra-
ton by our drug stores remaining
open and selling cold drinks and to-
bacco on Sunday, and eXclaim that
our people want them, and are going to
have them, etc.
Your position as a county editor
is a very responsible one, and your
influence should be in line and har-
mony with our ministers and best NOR
al people in forming public opinion,
protecting public interest, and influ-
encing and upholding moral and
righteous laws, and you should be our
local Waterman and guardsman. In

Rochelle, Oct. 9-The farmers in
Wilcox and adjoining counties are sat

conditions Except for the boil wee
vii this county would be on the big
gest kind of boom. They are in a
better condition now than they have
been in a number of years. This
prosperous state of affairs can only
be accounted for by the high price of
cotton and seed, the wheat and tobac-
co crops and the fancy prices the
melon growers received this year.
The phenomenal advance in the
price of cotton seed is one of the SEN
sations Of the market here. Seed are
selling for $50 and more Many farm

several years ago and with cotton sell

preacher friend who would take a
nip" in the morning. Living with
him was joy for he had the real
! mistaken love of humanity in his
soul. He takes his nip" yet but when
| he dies ii he misses heaven and we
have way of finding it out, st. Peter
will never have a chance to turn us
down.
We want to work in line and har-
mony with our ministers in shaping
public opinion. We want to help build
and enlarge the usefulness of every
agency for good, but we want our min
lister friends to realize that we have
a right to our opinions,-they could not
fairly be the concentrated expression
of local thought, for we are but one
human being with but one outlook
on the world. The Dispatch can be
the concentrated expression of local
thought, for any one who wishes may
write and have his ideas published
so long as they are reasonably fit to
print, but personally the editor cannot
be anything but himself.
Cordele is not a bad town. 1t is
full of good people. 1t isn't good
enough just yet to be transported,
but our ministers are not fair with
themselves or their people when they
"blaze away" as they did Sunday
night We would be awfully surprised
if the Lord ever called us to preach,
but if that thing were to occur, our
idea of Christianity would direct US
for differently.
The church is thing apart from af,
fairs of state,-from politics and cleo
tions. In our mind it's mission is high
err than all that. How can it stoop to
elect this man and defeat that, to car
ry this measure and block that, and
ever serve the universal purpose of
elevating mankind? We want our
ministers to see this We want them
to know it.
In politics we need the ministers as
citizens to help settle issues. They
are needed to WELD the ballot just
as are other men, but it is an awful
mistake to desecrate the Christian
church and drag it as an organization
into any sort of issue where civil gov
eminent is being shaped. Inside the
church the member is thrown into the
gravest doubt as to the sincerity of the
minister-leader's Christian motives.
Outside the church it marks for de-
feat every good man and every good
measure that go to the people with
the endorsement of any church organ
ization. And the church in a political
fight is kicked and cuffed around I'M
til it's power for doing good is woefully
and shamefully weakened. Hundreds
upon hundreds both inside and outside
the ranks of membership lose their
high esteem for Gods most powerful
agency for uplift.

HARD TO CONTROL NERVES
Even the BraVest Men Have Been
Known to Exhibit Fear Before Be-
ing Injured to Battle.

Men in the trenches. now quite used
to the war game, have been described
as feeling "jumpy"-the sort of af-
Fiction that used to be called 'mau
seritis." Here is a state of mind not
necessarily blameworthy, nor even I'M
soldierly; the bravest have expert
enced it. The feeling is given various
names. AS when young nobleman
was sent to the hospital suffering from
heart paralysis" Being immature, a
mere youth, his heart, in fact, his
whole body, was undeveloped-a man
in spirit, but not yet in body. Being
so conspicuous a figure it was up to
him to display the supremest courage;
and of course, he made good. All the
same, there was a profound shock to
his physical organism; and something
had to evidence that shock. His soul
was strong and brave; but his physi-
cal being, with it's subconscious will
to;live, was afraid; and no shame to
it or to its princely owner.
Why should men get equivocal about
fear on the battlefield; why not frank
ly call it that and not nerves" or
some like foolishness? The courage
lies all in going ahead despite the
fear. The sublimest courage is the
two in the morning" sort, when ones
physical condition is at it's lowest
ebb. And the wonder is, just that
kind of courage is now being so mag
nificently and so lavishly displayed all
along the battlefronts, where much
OF the fighting is done at night. All
soldiers are likely to be afraid until
they get used to warfare. This has
beec true of many famous COM
manders-Augustus, VINO won fame at
Actium, Turenne, Napoleon, Ney. "A
coward is he." declared the bravest of
the brave, who boasts he never was
afraid" Demosthenes talked fight
aplenty; but he ran away from his
first engagement, as did also Cicero
