The world is growing better. Geor-
gia hasn't had lynching in three
days.
Don't rush cotton on the market.
That's what the spectators and spin
ners want.
General Pershing should have a
better half to share the honors of the
hour with him.
When school starts the days will
suddenly grow much longer to the
average school boy.
General Pershing has brought
back with honor the flag which he
carried to Europe.

If fellows salary enables him to
buy new fall suit, pair of shoes
and necktie, he's got good job.

The Uni States senate, which is
now considering the Peace Treaty,

New York is making most as
much over Pershing as it did over
York. Why not? York killed the most
Germans.
Following the ordinance in Mobile
prohibiting burials on Sunday, the
city council should enact compan-
ion ordinance prohibiting deaths on
Saturday.
Knowing that filling Congress
man Levers place would be a
mans job, the voters of the seventh
district chose Mann for the place
Tuesday.
The law of supply and demand
! seems to be imperative in its appli-
3Acation to teachers. Teachers are few
the demand is greater, and sala-
4 bare but little more.
1t has been suggested that the
z u. C. V. and the D. A. R., veterans
who fought each other tooth and toe
in the sixties, unite. That will be like
the lion and the lamb lying down to-
) gether.
Twenty-Five thousand a day should
give General Pershing good time
in New York. That's what the me-
tropolis provided for his entertain
ment.
People Interested in Good Roads.
There is more real interest among
the people in highway improvement
than we have ever observed before.
The heavy and prolonged rains of
spring and summer caused roads that
had hitherto been good at that sea-
son to become almost impossible.
This condition in summer was some
I thing that the people were unaccus-
toned to, causing them to realize
as never before the need for perma-
nent highway improvement.
Edgefeld county can never have
satisfactory public roads until the
people give the supervisor greater
support and cooperation and until
funds are provided by bond
~ isst or otherwise. 1t is a physical
"a imossibility for the supervisor with
"a orce of fourteen convicts to keep
i approximately twelve hundred miles
bf road in passable condition, es-
y pecially as so small a portion of
these roads have been relocated. 1t
is much easier to keep public road
in good condition that has been prop
erly surveyed than it is to keep the
old worn-out road bed in good con-

tend the work it has been doing in
the larger cities to the smaller towns
just as rapidly as possible The war
work that the organization has done
viii make it comparatively easy to do
this, as d very large number Of people
have come into contact with "Y. W"
work through the Hostess Houses at
the various army camps and have
found that the Blue Triangle is always
an emblem Of practical efficient serv-
ice. A very large part Of the $4,000
each Georgia county is being asked
to contribute between February 9Th
and 18th viii be used for this extern
sion work, and will go directly back

Larger Cities To Raise Bulk OF
Y. W. c. A. Fund.

The Young Women's Christian AS.
sociation campaign to raise $4,000 in
each Georgia county with which to
continue and develop their regular
work comes as something of a relief
after the many campaigns where a
single person of moderate means was
expected to give almost that much
They are asking for that sum to ap,
ply upon a total of $4,000, but At
aanta, Macon, Savannah, Augusta and
Columbus are to raise all except the
hundred dollars from each of the other
counties.
This money will be used in the gen.
teral work Of the Association, and in
that work the outside counties partic.
ipate quite as much as do the counties
where the local associations are To-
Gated The money the ". w" re-
Ceived during the United War Work
drive was to be used for war work
only, and no part Of it is available
for any other kind of work.
1t is also fact that all of this money
is needed for the purpose for which it
was raised, even though the war is
over. The Hostess Houses at all
camps are being kept open, and will be
so long as there are troops in the
camps Work among the troops
abroad is being pushed even more
vigorously than while the actual fight.

that the soldiers have more time and
constantly greater need of recreation
and amusements.

London.

That announce ment hes been made by the Major General Sir ". H.

 About 125, 900 war horses are to be brought to England, and Belgium is to have 5O,000 for reoonStructional work. General Birkbeck said: ''we want to distribute them all over the country by big sales, in cities up to 100 animals, and to smaller towns Gp to twenty-five. There Is an un- accountable prejudice against mules in this country. At present we have tu England about 10 900 mules many of which we want to sell, but peo- pie don't seem inclined to buy them The mule Is an economical animal which does not eat 80 much as a horse, and for every horse that goes sick, less than half g. mule Is sick'

W.S.S. CAMPAIGN OPENS WITH RUSH

The new War Savinss Stamp cam paign, which opened Friday started sNff with Q rush. New York state, Sas twelve northern counties of New Jersey and Fairfield County, Con nocticut. comprising the Second Fed era Reserve District, all bought heavily of the baby government Be- Su>Stiee
 Thomas A. Edison was among the first whose purchases wore recorded. He was a limit subscriber, buying s1.0eO of War Savings Stamps. MT. Edison made these thrift remarks in connection with the opening of the new campaign.
 Prosperity is on the way as soon as we clear up the war debts," he said, "and the individual will get his share of that prosperity in proportion to his willingness to work for 1t.
 Thrift has always appealed to me as an avenue to success. The gov ernment needs thrift and the indi- vtd,lal needs thrift. That is the req son that I subscribed at once for the full limit of War Savings Str mps. The money will help the government. I hope my young men will see that in helping the government through the purchase of stamps, that they are also helping themselves towards in- dividual success and pro lperity by es- tablishlng tho habit of thrift.
 "A great many of my young friends in the factories here are in the habit of looking to me for an ex- ?mple, so subscribed for War Saw ings Stamps in order to get them started on the right road as soon as possible"
 New York city was ablaze with searchlights from battleships and big buildings yesterday In honor of the opening of the W. s. s. drive and to commemorate the 21Sth birthday of Benjamin Franklin, discoverer of electricity and the father of the thrift idea.

SAYS "DRY" BOSTON
 WILL LOSE MILLIONS
Maritime Puts Enforcement Cost at S2,000,0C0 - Hotel Men Plan Campaign to Explain Changes to the Public.

Boston, Jan. 2O-At a meeting held in the New American house under auspices of the City of Boston Hotel Mems association to discuss national prohibition. a committee was named to take steps to secure a fund and attempt to bring home to the public the tremendous changes which will come under tha new law.
 There were present at the meeting representatives, of the hotel, supply houses and real estate interests. Pres ident Edward c. F'ogg of the hotel mems organization, presided.
 Addresses were made by eX-Senator James c. Martine Of New Jersey, and aid of Boston. MT. Maritime said the people had not yet come to full re- alization of what national prohibition meant; that the voters seemingly have not realized that this new law will cost the city of Boston fully S1,- 100000 year in the loss of license fees, probably $2,000,0OO more to po- lice the city in an effort to stop the illegal sale of intoxicants, to say nothing of the loss to real estate in- terests whose property Is used for storage or the sale of liquor.
 He did not believe there was a sin- gle man present at the meeting who would not rejoice to see 8 national good things claimed for it by it's ad- vocates, But he maintained the law works against the rights of the in divtdual and that 1t will not do away with the use of jails and asyiumS or even materially reduce the num- Der of inmates in them or in the charitable institutions.
 Another strong objection which he made to national prohibition was on the ground that 1t would set up a na- ton of liars and hypocrites.
 MT. Fitzgerald said :he passage of the new law would put this entire nation in bad light with Great Bri- tain and European nations, particu- larly France and Italy. It will cut off from both France and Italy the important revenue they receive from the sale of wines and co-dtels to the United States, and coming just on the heels of the war, with it's terrific ex- penseas seems almost like g. direct hit at those countries
 He thought, too, that immigrants who have been accustomed to use wines and cordiels, on coming to the United States and encountering pro hibition, will be apt to feel that Ii thds law is a sample of democracy | they do not want democracy.
