CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR

You are stranger in town, Sunday
comes, you attend the morning services.
You have been raised in a Christian home
and are accustomed to observe the Sab
bath. On the long Sunday afternoon you
have nothing to do. But the longest and
most restless part of all is the hour just
at twilight. But there is somewhere to
60, something to do with yourself besides
participating in worldly amusements. At,
tend Christian Endeavor. At what more
fitting time and in what more fitting way
could one spend quiet hour with God.
These meetings are held at the Pres
byterian Church from $3.50 to 1880. The
society is Observation-Disclosures. Not
only strangers are welcome, but We will
be glad to have citizens Of the town and
those who are in town for . day OF 20.
ALLAN welcome.

A REAL PEACE
By william Almon Wolff
OF the VigAsntae

Everyone wants peace. But it must
be q real peace. The last hope Of q beat
en- Germany is to get q peace that will
not be q real one. Clear straight think
ing in America this spring win help to
make that impossible. That, after al,
is the vital need to this hour. 1t ism t
straight thinking that led some people
to see, in Won Hertling's reply to Pres
ident Wilson g last speech, an agreement
in the matter Of Belgium. The German
Chancellor said, in effect, that Germany
had never meant to keep Belgium, and
that the whole matter Of Belgium was one
to be brought up in the peace conference.
Never! The only question that can
even conceivably come up concerning
Belgium in the peace conference is that
Of the exact method by which Germany is
to make what little reparation money
can make for the crime Of rape There
can be peace conference, even, until
Germany has agreed, convincingly, to
evacuate Belgium and repair the wrong
she has done there. And that applies
as much to Northern France and to Ser
via as to Belgium.

WOULD RATHER FIGHT THAN
PLAY BALL

Washington, D. c., March. 8-Not-
withstanding the fact that he's in the
Marine Corps Is volunteer, Jack
IDIOTS" Miller, former captain and
first baseman of the st. Louis Nation
als, thought he stood q good chance Of
being drafted.
The Marine Corps baseball team in
this city needs crack infielders and
"Dots" Miller's name heads the list
Of prospects.
"Gee, I don't want to be drafted and
play ball." grumbled "Dots" when
informed that he may be chosen to play
on the crack Marine nine. "I want to
fight-that g why Joined this outfit.
And now they want me to play ball.
Can you beat such lucka" But when
General Barnett was informed that he
would rather fight than play ball, he
declined to order him to Washington.
Miller would probably have man.

number Of non-productive boarders. Hens
lay better without the rooster and the
eggs being infertile are very much more
easily kept, and with common sense care
will last for weeks given warm wealth
er, where the others quickly spoil. After
April 80, hens can again be put on the
market for sale, and every farmer is
urged to sell his old hens and save the
young pullets for laying Fall eggs. Ship
the cockerels to market promptly, or if
you prefer to keep them at home, follow
the example of the Eastern farmers and
caponize them. Capons grow very much
faster, their flesh is tender and much
sought after, and they fatten on probab-
~ one-third less than any other chick
en-. In addition to running together
like bunch Of sheep, the lack Of exer-
else makes the flesh Of an old capon
sweet and tender. They meet ready sale
in every market, and the least little ex.
perience is necessary in the care Of
them.
The q. 8. Department Of Agrieul-
ture will promptly furnish, free, al de-
tails, and along the line Of common
sense and economy We hope to see a very
much increased production Of capons in
Lpuisiana for the coming season.

n greeting to some Harvard Poets at the

Lads, if the ancient lie were ever true
That Song must fawn upon the heels of
= war,
And far-off souls unquickened ali before,
So wake to glories they were dreaming
through
Then might you who have left your dream
to do, ....
Grimly grid up your Stole hearts-and
Against the songful gods you serve no
more;
Since men that die have other words for
you.
But ali, the dumbless Of this sodden
place
That was 20 world,-where men and
trees belong!
Never look Lack.-But in some yonder
space
Whittier the vanguard dreams and valors
throng,
Heap high the fires Of Life there, face to
face,
Beyond our dlenee.-end beyond our
song.

STARTING THE FAIR

Those of us who know something
of the work required to conduct
successful fair are not much inclin-
ed to go into this thankless job. 1t is
a duty however that many of us know
must be performed and again Crisp is
going to provide a show for the fall
1t will be good one, and this asser-
ton no one doubts.
We will have one of the prettiest
live stock shows that will be in any
south Georgia fair this fall and,
besides, we will have show of food
products in general that will prove
indeed very interesting.
Those who are going to take part
should begin their preparation now
while there is time A premium list
will soon be out and this will reveal
a very satisfactory arrangement of
prizes.
The entire county is interested in
the holding of a good fair despite the
little time there is which seemingly
can be devoted to it, One of our first
duties is to see that our county fair
is on the way and the Dispatch be-
lieves on citizen is going to shirk his
duty.
To be sure. there is a scarcity of
labor that will be even more so as
soon as the tnanfer of men for war is
completed for the early fall months
But there will be enough to give the
people of Crisp the right kind of coun-
ty fair the start is but an evidence of
the right kind of spirit.
1t will be remembered that the gov
erment is urging the holding of the
fairs and assistance such as the
government can render will be giving
From other sources there will be more
encouragement for those who arrange
the fair. The whole county will enjoy
it as they always do such an enter
prise.
