In about ten minutes Miss Lasette

HE PAYS THE FREIGHT.

We are told that the estimated expendi-
lures of the state government will exceed
the estimated revenue by $1,000,000.
1t is so very easy, you know, to add new
laws which call, in many cases, of course,
for new bureaus and commissions and
courts and so on
But one thing we forget, brethren, and
that is this: Pay day rolls around.
The Georgia state government is today
spending something like two and a half dol
lars as against one dollar ten years ago.
This is simply aiarming-that is, alarm
ing to Jones, who pays the freight
The plight of this burden bearer is re-
spectfully called to the attention of the
tax commission, who are now engaged in
the work of revising the tax laws of the
state so as to raise more revenue"
The people are now paying taxes to the
amount of seven and half million dollars
a year for the support of their state govern
ment and its institutions.

The PRICE THEY PAY.

Germany must pay $25,0OO,OOO, 900 in
gold to the allied and associate governments
for losses and damage caused in the world
war; plus other billions to be determined
by a special commission on which Germany
is to be represented
Payment of the 10O,O00,00O, 900 gold
marks is to be divided into three distinct
accounts, as follows: First, 10000, 100000
marks within two years; second, 10000, COO,-
600 marks during thirty years beginning
1929; third, 100000 100000 marks when a
commission shall determine how it shall be
done.
Germany is to surrender Alsace-Lorraine
to France.
Germany is to surrender to France her
potash deposits.
Germany is to surrender to France the
coal and coke of the Saar region.
All the colonies of Germany and Turkey
are to be taken from the vanquished coun-
tries and ruled by manufactures.
Germany has lost her navy
Germany has lost her merchant marine
Germany has lost her richest provinces
and the Germans for a century to come
will be working to pay the war debts made
by the Hohenzollerns and the indemnity
claims of the victors

UNSICHTLY TREES.

Nothing enhances the beauty of a town
as much as trees in its residence streets and
about the homes Of its citizens. But city trees
should be such as to combine their beauty
with nature and that of the architecture
and landscaping OF man. Every tree should
be a specimen of arboreal beauty 1t should
be as near perfect as trees can be developed
Ruthless destruction of ornamental trees is
not to be encouraged, but the elimination of
unsightly ones which cannot be improved by
culture or trimming is apart of the civic
duty of the municipality.
In the woods an old decaying log covered
with moss and overgrown with wild plants
and bushes is a thing of enhancing beauty
AS part of street ornamentation it would
be an eyesore. Environment gives any ele-
ment of nature its setting and if the envi-
ronment blends with the element it becomes
something to please esthetic taste. Dead
trees in the streets produce a feeling of
decayedness in the beholder that does not
occur when one is seen in the woods Trees
which are half dead and in which the life
element is wasting itself away, mar more
beauty than that occupied by the tree itself
1t has discordant effect on the entire per-
spective.
Cutting out branches in tops of trees, af-
ter they have become a part of the tree in
size and formation, to make space for tele-
phone and electric wires makes it unsightly
and often lopsided
A plan to have every tree in Dawson a
thing of beauty and to eliminate all the
eyesores and trees which mar the harmony
of the streets should have the attention of
the municipal authorities and the enthusi-
astic cooperation of every resident who
wants his property to be attractive to the
passerby and to himself

Americas Greatest Battle.
From the New York World.

The OF ial figures for the Meuse-Arcol-
ne struggle, which is likely to be known i.
history as the Battle of the Argonne. have
been issued, and they show that so far as
numbers are concerned it is our greatest
achievement in war Pe1shing commanded
there 631, 900 American troops and an auxil-
larry force of 13S,000 French. He employ
ed 100000 men in the St. Mihiel salient. but
victory was won there quickly and our losses
were comparatively small. We had eleven
divisions, or about 100000 men, at the Sec
ond Marine, where oar men played a decisive
part, but then we were under the French
high command.
The toll that we paid in the Argonpe
Forest and along the Meuse was terrible. be-
cause that was conceded by all the military
leaders, French and English as we'll as Amer
lean, to be the most difficult part of the
German line, as it was the most vital The
/ Germans, aided by the nature of the coun-
try, also accumulated forty-seven of their
best divisions for its defense, and thew
fought desperately, knowing that if the
Americans got through the game was up.
Our men went through, but they suffered
~ 000 co~"2l+ies, &C whom about 10000
were killed.
The Argonne was not as spectacular as
the Second Marine or the breaking of the
Hindenburg line, but more than one-third
of our casualties in Europe occurred there.
