The Penny Bed

An Iowa mother has suggested the
planting of poppy beds in memory of
the dead, and in honor of the living
soldiers. The suggestion is one full
of sentiment, and one which tells its
own story. She bases her idea on
that appealing poem, the first two
lines of which are
In Flanders fields where the
peoples grow
Between our crosses row on row.
The thought of that poem is too
we'll known to need elucidation, and
the lines are too familiar to need
repetition. But to perpetuate the sem
timent in poppy beds named for the
boys who fell or those who served
and returned is entirely new. The
appeal from the dead in that poem
inspired many soul in the face of
death, nerved many an arm for the
death grapple with the foe. The
words were like the voices of those
brave men who slept the sleep of
eternity in cross marked graves in
the fields wherein they fell.
If We break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep through pop
pies grow
In Flanders fields.
Dawson News.

The interference of Americans IN
the Irish cause, to US is quite out OF
place. What we have men in Ireland
investigating the Irish claims to a
republic for, is mystery whose solu-
ton will prove of world interest. Cor
dele Dispatch.
The Irish, as we'll as other nation
alities, should become Americans
when they reach America, but good
many of them insist on trying to run
both countries.

Who writes the shorts for the Mari
eta journal? Betcha we could guess
it the very first pop.-Alpharetta Free
Press.
We guess you are wrong, George,
for you have never met the man who
writes both the "shorts" and 'longs"
for this paper, although he would be
glad to see you any time you come
over.

The legislature will be in session in
about a month, when Judge Quincy
will have his hands full for awhile.
There are quite a number of local
bills to be put through, besides the
judge has in mind several bills of
statewide interest to introduce.-The
Douglas Enterprise.
This is always the trouble with a
regular session; so many local bills
take up the time of members and the
most important measures are passed
in a half-baked state in the closing
hours, or neglected altogether, and
this is the reason we favored an extra
session for road legislation.

The recommendation of the recent
grand jury in regard to children I'M
der 16 years of age driving automo-
biles seems to have received but scant
consideration. AS we have stated be-
fore it is not so much how old a
driver of an automobile may be but
how much care the driver exercises
in driving. Careful and safe driving
is what we want first, regardless OF
age. These speed fends should be
stopped from driving on the highways
regardless of age.-Telfair Enter
prise.
An old fool is just as dangerous at
wheel of car as young fool, but
neither have any business running a
car. AS no car yet invented is fool
proof, the fool killer, although right
on the job, is behind with his work.

The News is non-partisian and as
rule elects not to espouse the cause
of any political aspirant, but we don't
mind letting it be understood that
we are in favor of an administration
that favors paving the streets in
the business section and the principal
streets and sidewalks in the residen-
tai section. There has been enough
money wasted shoveling sand on and
from the city streets and sidewalks
Paving is the practical economical
remedy for street troubles. The first
cost may be high, but it pays in the
long run.-Vienna News.
This is good advice and it applies
to any other town without paving as
we'll as it does to Vienna.

Isn't it strange that one or two little
lines in the home paper that goes
against the grain with some good peo-
pie will attract more attention than
column after column of boost and pull
for the home town and it's institu-
tions?-~Winder News.
1t all goes to prove that the papers
are read. When your reader is salts
fed he usually says nothing and when
he is not you hear from him. Still,
we have very often had readers go
out of the way to commend something
we write.

Fiume, the great trouble-maker, is
only an afterthought. It's strange,
but true, that Italy discovered, only
after the war was over, that she had
been fighting for Fiume.-Waycross
Journal Herald.
Some people require a second
thought to think of anything, and it
is possible that Italy may have an
other "think" coming about this
Fiume affair yet.

Greensboro is one of the few towns
in Georgia that tolerates the "cut
OUT on automobiles. Tuesday, when
Hon. C. Murphy Gambler, was speak
ing, people were running up and down
the streets with the exhausts of their
cars wide open. Public worship is
often disturbed and the durn things
are a nuisance. What about it gentle
men of the city council? Will you
act on a petition if we get you one
making automobile owners put muf-
1ers on their cars? When an auto
mobile exhaust is wide open, you can
not hear anything but the noise for
two blocks. Can't we muzzle 'em?-
Greensboro Herald-Journal.
There was a time when only high
priced cars had mufflers, then the
noise of the exhaust indicated cheap
car, now all cars have mufflers, and
the noise of the exhaust indicates
cheap driver.

When yearling boys reach the stage
in their development where they not
only f1out the rules of the school they
attend, but openly defy their teach
ers, it is time for their parents or the
state courts to take them in hand
Meter Advertiser.
1t is a sad thing in the end for all
such boys when their parents fail to
take hand, or even worse, when they
take it against the teachers.
The Marietta journal. (Marietta, Ga.) 1918-1944, 1919-05-16

The most miserable people in the
world are those who have nothing to
do. They know not the joy and hap
piness that come to those who take
pride in real accomplishment.-Dal-
ton Citizen
Any person who is thoroughly I'M
selfish will always find some thing to
do, and will always be happy. By the
same reason an idle person is a sell
fish person, and consequently a most
unhappy one.

1t is not always so, but usually a
mans life is what he makes it. Mis-
fortunes sometime prove too much
and man goes down under the load,
but strong character can rise again
the better for having been down.
Conyers Times.
And all the world has the greatest
respect for the man who won't stay
down. Napoleon had his faults, but
he will ever live in history as a great
man.

The Tribune sees no reason to re-
wise it's assertion made month ago,
to-wit: Clifford Walker will be the
next Governor of Georgia.-Walton
Tribune.
If the Tribune man is trying TO
get a "rise" out of US, he'll not get
it. Cliff is a good fellow, wants the
lob, and no one has shown us yet why
he should not have it.

The formulation of the peace treaty
and the League of Nations constitu-
ton was nothing compared with the
graduation essays that high school
seniors are working on now all over
this fair land. - Waycross Journal
Herald.
After all, they are of very like i'm
portance, for in few years it will
be left to the writers of the essays
to maintain the League of cations.

Bolshevism can only flourish where
oppression and despotism has prevail
ed. The soil of the United States
doesn't suit the weed.-Vidalia Ad-

Ignorance also is soil in which it
f1ourishes as a green bay tree. Edu-
cation is necessary to the health of
any country, and let that be Chris
tan education.

What has become of the old fash
toned girl that married the other fell

Rome Tribune-Herald.
She probably has a family of her

and the soldier lover may also have
changed his mind and brought home

The kaiser is to be brought to trial.
Hope he will not have some of Geor-
gia's famous "technicality" lawyers
to defend him. The trial might last
forever.-Jackson Progress-Argus.
You need not be alarmed, none OF
Georgia's technicality lawyers will
ever practice in the court that tries
the kaiser, and they are becoming
decidedly unpopular in this state.

If there has been any cotton cut
ting anywhere in this section, we have
failed to see any evidences of it thus
far.-Madison Madisonian..
This is rather a severe Indictment
against the Intelligence and co-opera-

munity. We do not say that there are
not many such communities in the
state.

Some of the bombs being sent
through the mails are nothing but

Now, listen to the noise the Repub-
licans make as they gobble up the

Yes, we have heard the noise be-

experience, they make less noise and
gobble more viands than do the Dem
ocrats.

A writer in the Thomaston Times
appeals to the ministers of that city
to close their Sunday morning SER
vices at twelve o'clock and to make
the evening services not longer than
forty-fve minutes. He intimates that
under such circumstances larger con-
gregations would be present at each
service. He may be correct, but a
more general and superficial explana-
ton of the absence of the brethren is
that they do not want to go.-Monroe
Advertiser.
He may be correct; at least we be-
lieve the plan would be worth trying
out. We knew one preacher to ad-
here to such plan and he was sue
cessful one.

Everyone who has the best interest
of Georgia at heart should encourage
a larger measure of cooperation be-

When you hear someone say job

How times do change. A few years
