Last Friday night at Carvel hall was
staged snappy game OF basket ball
between the Crawford High school
team and the Crawford old sports,
which ended in a 10 to victory for
the old sports. The High boys played
fine game, but the old sports were
to heavy for them However, the boys
showed that given opponents Of their
own age and weight they will fight
their way to victory.
On Monday occurred an event that
has long been hoped for by the citi-

raising Of the splendid new Bowlden
beA to its place in the steeple Of the
Methodist church. EARLY in the morn
ing a strong volunteer force Of car
penters met and began putting the
tower in shape to receive the bell, and
to rig the hoisting equipment. At
high noon the teachers OF the school
and the pupils marched in a body to
the church. and led the assembly OF
people in singing THE Church in the
, Wildwood" and america" while the
bell was being slowly raised to its
place. BY four o'clock in the after
noon all the work had been completed
and the workers were ready to go to
their homes. Not only in the purchase
of this fine bell. but in the dispatch
with which it was raised, do we see
what can be accomplished when q
community works together to one end.

WHAT A POOR BOY DID.

Columns of newspaper space are being
consumed to recite the events in the life OF
Andrew Carnegie. Volumes are required to
cover the deductions and inspiration and
advice which are drawn from his unprece-
dented career. The span of life, even when
it covers four score and four years, as that
of Mr.. Carnegie did, seems far too short TO
the average individual in which to pass
from a weaver's apprentice through the de-
grees of telegraph messenger, telegraph
operator, district superintendent, oil invest
or. capitalist and iron master to point
where wealth came to his hands faster than
he could spend it in we'll considered phllan-
thropy. and which, despite the expenditure
of $500, 100000 during the last eighteen
wears. left him at his death the possessor, OF
a fortune of nearly a quarter billion dol
lars. the second largest individual fortune IN
the United States and the largest acquired
by any foreigner.
The life of Andrew Carnegie reads like
q page from fiction, chapter from the
romance of gold. Yet, behind the accumu
lation of his fortune was financial shreWd
ness that was altogether canny IN its ele
ments, and quiet daring and wonderful
ability to see into the future.
Mr.. Carnegie is an illustration OF tn
possibilities America offers to the frugal
the industrious and the prudent He ende'
life at the top He was endowed by natur
with more than the normal amount of ablll
ty. but had he allowed that ability to Ian
guish he probably would have ended MS ca
reer as a telegrapher. He determined
win. and to realize that determination h
bent all of his energies. The opportumtle
by which he came to his immense weaIt
wore available to hundreds of others. The
did not see them, or if they did they wer
too timid to embrace them. He saw then
and was not afraid to try them when n
judgment was satisfied they were safe
would be absurd to attribute his success
good luck or accident or to opportumtie
which no Others would have used. 1t VIZ

MEXICAN BLOOD MONEY.

The insoent and blood-thirsty demand of
Mexican outlaws that $4,000 ransom be de-
posted within limited time else the lives
of two aviators, wearing the uniform of the
United States and captured while in the dis
charge of duty as border patrols, would be
forfeited passed all bounds of national pa
tence and calls for emphatic redress by the
government. 1t is true the crime was COM
mitted by purported outlaws against Mex
lean authority. If it were an isolated IN
stance tolerance might have place in deal
ing with the crime. But it is merely one IN
a long list of outrages against American
citizens by Mexicans which, because of the
indifference on the part of this govern
ment, have encouraged the outlaws figura-
lively to spit on United States authority
and defy the government to punish the per
petrators

SEPTEMBER.

With the close of August and the advent
of September we come to the end of the
summer season and enter autumn. How
brief it seems in the retrospect 1t seems
but yesterday that Miss Summer arrived,
radiant, Respondent, charming, and yet al
ready she has taken her departure. Had she
been less delightful her visit would not have
appeared to be so fleeing. Departing, she
has left behind her some dsappointments
and unfulflled promises, but on the whole
she has not been lacking in generosity and
we are sorry to have her go, hoping that
next year she will be more generous and
no less enjoyable.
September, the harvest month"; brings to
us cool mornings and evenings, which hint
of autumn, and soon bit of fire in the
CRATE before breakfast will be welcome.
Now, morning and evening, we begin to no.
tice the shortening of the days. AS the
shadows and GOODNESS of the evening fall
it is comfortable again to gather within
about the evening lamp before seeking re-
pose. In September we find many signs of
autumn's presence. In September the wild
grape bushes purple. In fields of corn we
find ears denied and hardening. Wild shrubs
are loaded with ripening fruit. Many road
side plants which we call weeds for conven-
fence have ripened their seeds and are
yellowing. Flowers of the departed sum-
mer open their purple and yellow blossoms.
Under the heat CT the September sun mead
ows turn from the green of midsummer
to the brown of autumn. Haze gathers in
the valleys and obscures the distant hills.
The voices of the birds are stilled, the last
broods of the season are on the wing, pre-
liminary to the autumn migration About
the lakes and marshes the wild ducks are
gathering, filing the hunters mind with an
delights
In September we are between summer
and autumn September days and nights
have the summer and autumn flavor in
about equal measure. In September we dis
Germ the beginning of natures preparation
for the winter rest. Growth has ceased,
and natures effort is stayed save the i'm
pulse to bring to maturity that which al
ready has been grown. In keeping with the
spirit of the season the calm of September
tempts not man to eXertion, but rather to

restful and soothing; he bathes his soul in it

The Treachery of Poor Land
From the Progressive Farrser.

Recently our attention was caued to a
corn field by the roadside. 11e growing corn
was NOT notable because of vigor If growta
and heaviness of yield. On the contrary 1t
was particularly striking because OF its poor
growth At best, we estimated it would not
Weld over two bushels per acre, worth per-
haps S4 The stand was bad, the stalks were
stunted and yellow, and the corn was nub-
bins rather than ears.
This is not an uncommon picture IN the
South at this season. From Virginia to
Texas every year there are hundreds OF
thousands Of acres of corn, and other crops
as well, that fall far short of paying the
owner for his labor, to say nothing OF Such
items as land rent, fertilizers and seed
In such conditions we have one OF the
chief reasons for farmers quitting the farm
and going to town. Human beings lnevIta-
blv drift toward the places and occupations
offering the greatest returns for labor. That
these poverty acres" have been kent in cul-
tivation so Iong has largely been due to the
feeling that there was nothing else to do,
but farm them. But with the higher wages
and heavy demand for labor in the great
Industrial centers these acres must either
be brought up tc something at least ap-
preaching an average yield or they Wit be
thrown out, to grow in broomsedge and CID
field pines.
This problem of poor land-iand that
falls under our average yields one of our
biggest. In proportion to the degree to which
the Individual farmer solves it largely de
pend his profits and material well-belng.

A Good Man Retires.
From the Atlanta Constitution.

The retirement of J. NJ. Collum from the
principalship of the Third District Agricul-
tural and Mechanical school, after twelve
wears continuous and conspicuous service
to the state in that capacity, removes from
the educational profession of Georgia one
of its most worthy members.
Mr.. Collum has been continuously IN ed
ucational work in Georgia for forty years.
For fourteen years he was a teacher IN the
common schools; for like period he was
superintendent of schools in Schley county,
and during the last twelve years he has
been at the head of the institution from
which he has just severed his connection by
resignaton-to become effective lat his

twenty-five Years of Georgia Politics"

objective the advancement of the cause of
education, and in his capacity as educator

Another message of Christ is for
all Christians to "get together" and
save the world. Two great move
ments are at work today. The Inter-

within few years Professionalism
will be practically united in every

unit in missionary, benevolent and

organic unity. 1t seems to me the
