side in some construction work in
the west and had become close
friends. Gregory Lane was on his
way back to his family in the east,
and had promised Lionel to call upon
his aunt on his way and tell ~how he
was getting along.
But the letter had brought to
Lane new point of view of a gem
eral situation. Within an hour Lane
had shown the nissive to Mrs. Qu-
rand,
do you understand" spoke Lane,
that every impulse of my soul d.
reefs me to act, for my friend, your
nephew, Lionel Gray? The one de-
spair of his life is that Miss Breton
never caRed for him. This letter
proves the contrary. The news Of
that fact would raise him : to the
heights of happiness. You know
why he left Newton; so do l. He has
insisted upon the truth being kept
secret. Is it not our duty to clear
up the mystery, with these two low

THAI Miss Breton should know
that the reason why Lionel left New IS
ton was because he had been robbed
Of his little capital by her dissolute
brother, Henry Breton, and that
Lionel bore his loss and was silent"
Two days later, Lane visited the
distant town where Henry Breton
was@living. He took him aside and
told him of the object of his visit: He
spoke not of the return Of the
money. All, he asked was that Hen

the cause Of the separation, for, re-
duoed to poverty, Lionel Gray had
decided to give up home and business
and seek to rebuild his plans in a.

MASONS DENIED ROOMS
NEAR CANTONMENTS
PERMISSION REFUSED BY>WASH-
INGTON AUTHORITIES. WOULD
MAKE POLITICAL FIGHT.

ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. Grand
Master Frank o. Mills, of the Masons
of Georgia, today made it clear that
this order will not rest content with
the decision of Secretary of War
Baker, who has refused all secret
orders the right to maintain lodge
rooms near the various military
camps except the Knights of Column
bus.
Mr.. Mills declares this is a dis
elimination against the Protestant or
ders, and the entire Masonic order
will appeal to congress against this
order.
He states that if congress fails to
give the desired relief, then the mat
ter will be made an issue in the next
presidential campaign, and will be
carried to the country at large.
Catholic Order Given Privilege.
In his statement today Mr.. Mills
says; I'm my opinion an unjust, I'M
fair discrimination has been made.
Certainly no one objects to the gov
eminent allowing the Catholic secret
order the same privileges in these
camps as the Protestants, but do OBJ
ject strenuously to the Catholic or
der being allowed privileges which
are denied to Masons.
"Masons have made it a point to
steer clear of politics, but in my opin-
ion it is time for them to get busy
now and take a hand in asking for
some fair legislation and in the next
general election to see to it that par
ties are put into office who will ac-
cord us fair treatment"

ICES 1921 an Acre.


ICES 1921 an Acre.
The Triton Gazette of Yesterday
has the following to say of the price
at which Judge Clements, of Irwin
vile, sold his tobacco crop this wear !:
Judge ]. B. Clements, of Irwin
vile, attended the big tobacco auc-
ton at Mullins, S. c., last week.
While there he sold his 1917 tobac-
co crop at 29 cents pound.
Judge Clements had about seven
ty acres in tobacco this year and
gathered and cured about 900 pounds
to the acre. This at 20 cents pound
will give him the neat sum of 1851
an acre, or something over $1,000.
"But Judge Clements hasn't got
all of his eggs in one basket. A Wis
itor to his place yesterday said that
1t looked like he had enough hogs to
make meat for all of Irwin county.
There were hogs everywhere, all
around the farm, hundreds of them.
and they were in good order"

ON THIS TOBACCO CROP
Randolph County Man Made Profit
of SLY on Seven Acres He
Planted in "The Weed"

Ianteo IN he Weed.
The Cuthbert Leader says that Mr..
CRANKY H. Owen of that place has
satisfactorily demonstrated that to-
bacco can be successfully grown here.
This year Mr.. Owen set out seven
acres in tobacco on the place of his
mother-in-law, Mrs. L. E. Gay. It was
cultivated under the direction of Mr..
Winslow, agricultural agent of the
Central railroad. An accurate ac-
count of expenses was kept The crop
has all been harvested and the figures
make the following interesting re-
port:
There were several grades of the
tobacco. A few pounds sold as low
as II cents; the best grade brought
23 cents. The entire crop brought
$1,148.87, The expense was $500
per acre, or a total of $377.30. This
includes the cost of barn for cur
ing the tobacco. Deducting the ex-
pense shows a net profit of $71717.
This is a net profit of little more
than 800 per acre
A number of farmers have grown
tobacco at a good profit in Terrell
county this year.

Restaurant owners are making

According to restaurant owners,
some of their star boarders have a
tendency to put catsup on practically
everything that they eat From their
hot cakes in the morning to their
meal of cold meats in the evening
these star boarders insist on covering
everything they eat with catsup and
IN some cases you can hardly trust
them with a full bottle of the cat

The FARMERS OF GEORGIA
NOW WANT BETTER CATTLE
Central Railroad Is Receiving Many
Inquiries For Carload Lots. No
More Texas Cows Now.

Resulting from the recent ship
ments of blooded cattle into this sec
ton through the activities of the
Central of Georgia railroad, also
from the prevailing high prices for
beef and milk, the agricultural de-
partment of the company reports
that Georgia is demanding today i'm
proved cattle for beef and dairy pur-
poses as never before in her history.
j. F. Jackson, agricultural agent
for the Central of Georgia, says he
is receiving five to ten inquiries
day now for improved cattle.
Pure Bred Short Horns.
Agents of the company now are
working on a movement of pure bred
short horns, for which the agricultur-
al department is booking orders.
Within the next few weeks Mr. Jack
son expects to get the winter move
ment of fine blooded cattle from the
North into Georgia under way.
For the present the company will
not undertake to handle any more
movements of Texas cattle into Geor-
gia, the department announced to-
day. The recent trainload movement
from Texas to various points in this
state, Including Shellman and Fort
Gaines, has created a heavy demand
for improved beef cattle. Many of the
inquiries now are for Texas stock.
