Weight Breaks Big Beam

NCiSHt lDIcdhs Dig Dtdm
st. Johns.-Bangi Occupants of
the court house were startled Monday
morning at 11:35, by a tremendous
thud and the shaking of the building.
Joseph Cramer and Charles Dyke in
vestigated in the upper part of the
building, where the sound came from
and found that the 1500-pound weight
which controls the strike on the clock
had fallen, splitting a fourteen-inch
beam in two places.
Mr.. Dyke winds up the wire cable
to which the weight is attached, ev-
cry Monday morning. This carries
the weight to the top of a thirty-foot
shaft. Just after striking half-past
eleven, the cable snapped and the
weight fell. Had it not been for the
heavy beam at that point, there was
nothing else strong enough to prevent
its going clear through to the base
ment.
One side of the floor which sup
ports the machinery of the big clock
rests on this beam, and the floor Says
so, that it is doubtful whether the
clock will run or not until this is fix
ed. A new cable for the weight has
been ordered, but the clock may be
run without the strike it this is de-
layed in coming after the floor is fix
ed.

Does Sparta Want Milk Condensary?
Sparta.-After months of CORE
spondence and work the Sparta Bust
ness Mems association has at last re-
ceived a general bona-fide PROPOSE
ton from a reliable, well-fnanced
milk and ice cream company to To-
cate in Sparta.
1t depends upon the interest the
farmers and dairymen in this vicin-
ity show towards such an industry
whether their $4,000 plant is locat-
ed here, or elsewhere.
Fell From Buggy-Head Crushed
st. Johns.-While going to visit at
the home of. Henry Sievert, L. S. De-
groodt, was seriously injured. The
buggy broke, and the horse becoming
frightened, suddenly lurched forward
in run, throwing Mr.. DeGroodt
violently onto the ground. Mr.. Slew
ert, who was riding with Mr.. De-
Groodt, was also thrown to the
ground, but was fortunately uninjur-
ed. Mr.. DeGroodt's head was so
badly crushed that it was necessary
to take 20 stitches to close the wound.
The wound is serious, but Mr.. De-
Groodt is improving and it is thought
that he will recover.

Prohibition Not the Only Issue.

We very cordially endorse the fol-

very proper rebuke to those cranks in
Georgia who believe that prohibition

Here it is;
"Since Or. l.. G. Hardman of Com

A PrOdigaI Philosopher.

With a heart surcharged with sym
pathy with purely imaginary class
|of suffering people, and a head stuffed
with undemonstratcd social theories,
Edmund Trowbridge Dana, grandson
Iof the poet Longfellow, last summer
resolved to give up professorship at
Harvard and cast his lot with the pro-
letariat 1t was his obsession that he
was called to use his talents to elevate
the lowly. SO he went among them and
assumed their tasks and methods Of
Lying.
Presently he was united in mar
riage with young English woman,
who had gained attention through pub
Ilicly favoring eugenics, equal suffrage,
vegetarianism and the sex problem.
AT the ceremony of union special rit-
uaI which she had written was used
by the presiding official, whose only
thought, very likely. was of his fee.
Now it appears that, after having
made unsuccessful attempts to sup
port himself as a street car conductor.
a newspaper reporter a stoker and a
farm hand. he has returned to his or
Iiginal pedagogy and will teach philoso-
Iphy hereafter at small college in
Maryland
In his meanderngs through his pc
culiar Utopia the professor, no doubt,
discovered that those whom he insult
ed by classifying them as lowly know
more about the practical things of life
than himself and were intolerant OF
his patronizing mission They were
abmdantly able to take care OF them.
selyes Mr.. Dana set out on his jour.
ney ms a Socialist 1t is to be feared
that that cult has lost an ardent opol
ogist whose training in logic taught
him, after arriving upon the field Of
hard fact. that his first premises Were

curb the rapidly growing evil OF mol

whole country there were only sixty.
Thus. Georgia had something like
thirty per cent of these Illegal execu-

bucket; cause rains to fall when they
are most needed. and, likewise, com
mand the rain to cease when the farm

not plough. We do say, though, that
a governor who is elected on a plat

makes an honest and sincere effort to
carry out his prediction promises,
cannot help but have great influ-
ence with his people. That influence,
properly welded, will lead them safe

The Presidents Western Trip.

~ @Ot@%AAt - " NoNNAAA
The president has returned from his
swing around the circle Of the west
and we are quite persuaded that his
journey has been fruitful Of good re
suits. The president has not sought
to inflame the public mind; he has
told the country that there is no spe-
cific danger now menacing the repub-
lie, but that the general situation is Of
such a nature that there is no telling
what day may bring forth. He
merely argues the necessity, not for
any great movement towards militar-
ism, but simply that this country, in
all of its vastness ought to be prepar-
ed for any emergency that might
arise in time when fourfifths Of
the world is war mad. Twenty-four
short months ago, aye nineteen Of
them, and no man would have had the
hardihood TO have guessed what is to-
day happening in Europe. Where is
the philosopher. the student Of the
economics, the scientists, who would
have predicted such carnage as has
flooded all Europe with a baptism
Of blood, without precedent in all of
the history of the world? Patrick
Henry, in his greatest orations, de-
clared There is but one lamp by
which my feet are guided and that is
the lamp Of experience. / know of no
way OF Judging the future save by the
past" Has there been discovered
since the days Of the immortal Henry,
better fashion of diyining the fu
ture, than the processes to which he
so eloquently made reference? Is
there any man in this country who can
declare that America is immune from
the devastating fires now consuming |
the flower of Europe's manhood? We |
think not and we think with the great |
sincere chief executive of this nation,
thai Il i time we were setting our
house ready for any emergency and |
il the worst comes to the worst, then |
let us at least be prepared to defend |
ourselves! The American people, !
without respect to any other consid- |

proposition, more especially when 1t is !
suggested by the one man in the ma
ton. who has ample reason to know |
what he is talking about and who is |
talking because he conceives it to be |
his duty to solemnly warn the people |
of the true situation. We are not |
alarmed; the president says he is not |
alarmed. but he merely wishes to have
something substantial at his back
when he endeayors TO keep us from
war and at the same time protects
.ur honor!

THE Eternal Sapho," a modernlza-
tion OF the famous stage play. Sapho,
and a finn which barely escaped the

successful film In which Theda Bara,

The story concerns Laura Gubbins,
Youthful lnhabitant Of the under

poverty and a drunken father by ar

rescues her from thugs, and is a wit
ness Of a murder committed by him
when on a burglarious errand.
At a reception Laura meets Billy
Malvern (James Cooley and John
Drummond elmer rinden). both Of
whom fall in love with her Although
Drummond is married and has a pref
ty little daughter, Laura believes him
q bachelor and becomes involved with
him in an affair which she believes
will lead TO marriage.
Malvern admits to Drummond his
desire to marry Laura, and later tells
Laura of his love, but she declares
she will marry Drummond Then he
tells her Drummond already is mar
ried.
Laura makes Malvern bring her as
dinner guest to Drummond's home,
She torments Drummond through the
