THE TREATY AND THE FOURTEEN POINTS.

In his speech replying Premier Clemenceau when
man Foreign Minister BrockdornR appealed to
President wilson's fourteen points furnishing basis
Tor just peace press reports of this morn
ing are full Of complaints in the framing of the
treaty the fourteen points been ignored The London
Herald labor paper denouncing the treaty that
President Wilson compromised his fourteen points
The treaty, the Herald assures us, made in COM
plete disregard of the fourteen points.
What are the facts? comparison of the treaty with
the presidents speech of January 8, 1918 shows that ten
of these points at least been considered in the max
ing of the treaty These ten are:
/ Open covenants of peace
q Freedom of navigation upon the seas.
. Removal of economic barriers and establishment
of an equality of trade conditions.
4 Adequate guarantees that national ornaments
will be reduced
8 Adjustment of colonial claims basis of equal
ity, etc.
6 Recognition of the rights. of Russia.
T. Proper settlement of the Belgian issue, evacuation
and restoration of Belgium.
8. French terr tory to be freed, invaded portions
restored and the wrong done france in 1871 righted
10. Independent Polish state, with free and secure
access to the sea. y
a. The formation of a league of nations.
The remaining four points viii probably be covered
by treaties with Austria Bulgaria and Turkey These
frontiers Of Italy be adjusted along the lines Of
nationality; the peoples of Hungary to be ac-
corded free development; Roumania Serbia
and Montenegro be evacuated and other provisions to
be made regarding them; and last the Turkish portions
Of the Ottoman Empire to be assured selgoyern

Land and Highways.

An indication of the future of Georgia land values
and of what effect the development of an adequate high
way system will have upon them was afforded recently
at Americus when parcel of land ten miles from that
city in Sumter county sold public outcry from the
courthouse steps at $100 an acre,
The price says the report, included only the
bare land with few building improvements
And the report continues, the contemplated con-
otructon of network of permanent paved highways,
believed responsible the excellent price paid for
the land.
This transaction is significant of two things
First, that the day of cheap land in Georgia near
ing the end, and that there will time in the
future when the Georgia homeseeker or the would
Georgia land buy reasonably and cheap
ly right now; and second that nothing adds more
the value of land er investment or for home
ing purposes than good, year-round dependable high
ways.
With good roads, the distance from town and
ke center is minor Importance; but without
them it is everything
Right is the time to buy land in Georgia for the
highways coming surely as winters storms

And be half dead at night when you get through
If you can scrub ana nor be tired by scrubbing-
Or being cross and hot keep bravely mum
Or, being hated by the family.
Don't answer back, and yet don't look too glum-
If you can deal with dirt and trash and eobwebs
And treat all those disasters just the same
If you can bear to see the rugs you've beaten
Tracked up with mud-yet how to hx the blame?
If you can take each glass and pictured token
Down from the wall where it has always lain
Or watch the things your mother gave you-broken-
And stoop and glue the pieces on again
If you can make one heap of old newspapers
Of pictorials and battles done,
And start again with backyard conflagrations
Nor breathe a word until the deed is done)
