THE LARo-cAN STILL
Says the Savannah News:

Says the Savannah News:
'If it depends only on Judge Evans
of the United States district court
there is going to be mighty little
moonshining in Georgia in the future.
He announced from the bench, in Au-
gusta, that after the present term he
would invariably sentence second Of
blenders under the anti-moonshine
laws to serve the maximum SEN
tence and pay the maximum fine.
Two years is long time in Jail, but
it is almost certain that the most
inyeterate mOonshiner would at least
abstain from his favorite habit for
two years, if he had to serve such
a sentence. Said Judge Evans:
"There seems to be an increase in
the number of Illicit stills in this
district. The crude apparatus con
structed of lard can and a crooked
piece of iron is doing great harm in
the country. The diStiller is at
tracted by the large profits said to
come from the business. If the bust
ness is to be broken up, manifeStly
it cannot be done by the imposition
of small fines. The operator will find
1t less burdensome to pay small fines
than to pay the government its legi-
innate tax"
There is not a doubt that the
breaking up of the lard-can still is
going to be a difficult task 1t can
not be done by imposing small fines.
And it cannot be done by heavy fines
and Imprisonment unless, as Judge
Evans says public sentiment is
against 1t. After all, everything
comes back to public sentiment. Rev
enue officers cannot be successful
against lard-can stills unless the
folks in the county where it ope-
rates are against illicit manufacture
of whiskey 1t should not be for
gotten, however, that to make a
thing unlawful tends to make it un-
popular, tends to turn public senti-
ment against it. And, so, the pro-
hibition amendent, backing up the
great array of state and national anti
whiskey legislation already in ef-
feet, may be expected to operate to
deter the moonshiner At that, how
ever, it is likely to be long time
before the lard-can still becomes ex-
tinct."

CREED WORTH LIVING UP TO

If any country boy ever become dis
contented with his lot and thinks
there might be more opportunities
elsewhere or better place to live
than in a white farmhouse, let him
read the creed composed by Edwin
Osgood Grover The lines might be
Pinned up onhis bureau, where he can
see them the first thing in the morn
ming and the last thing at night
81 believe that the country which
God made is more beautiful than the
city which man made; that life out
Of doors and in touch with the earth
is the natural life OF man.
81 believe that work Is work where
ever we find it but that work with ma
ture i'm more inspiring than work with
the more intricate machinery. | be-
lieve that the dignity Of labor depends
not on what you do, but ON how you
do it, that opportunity comes to a
boy on the farm as to boy in the
city; that life is larger and freer and
happier on the farm than in the
town; that my success depends not
upon my location, but upon myself;
not upon dreams, but upon pluck.

work and playing when you play and
in giving and demanding q square

And along with his other qualifica-
tions, the farmer boy ought to resolve
firmly and faithfully every morning
as he starts to his work that his edu-
cation shall be thorough.

school to kill time and eventually get
to where he can hold a job behind a
soda counter These are his highest

for a broader knowledge. With his
every step behind the plow he gains
a stronger ambition to know what he
can accomplish in the world. y.
Let him remember that education
unfolds and develops his own better
self Oh, that he colud know, too, as
he goes to his labors, that his school
ing equips him for the issues which
every man must meet that accord
ingly he is educated, he will be able to
as he is educated, he will be able to
combat these issues and conquer

MORE PEANUT FARMERS

We are looking for more peanut
farmers in 1919. This, too, in the face
of all the paralysis now weighing the
market down. We must have more
acreage in peanuts to balance off the
big fat hogs which we are to carry to
market But that does not mean that
the peanuts must be fed to the hogs,
OIL that is worth some sixty to eighty
cents gallon should not he fed to
hogs especially since good results in
1919 by increasing the hogs and the
peanuts.
You need not abandon cotton. Plant
what you will and the weevil will get

growing help to manage the other

OUR PANAMA CANAL

New York Tribune: There has been
some talk among the extreme inter
nationalists about internationalizing
the Panama canal. Lord Robert Cecil
made a sensible allusion to this pro-
paganda when he remarked in Paris
the other day that since the canal is
the property of the United States it
must be for this country to say how
it shall be controlled.
We came near internationalizing
the Panama canal under the terms Of
the first ay-Pauncefote treaty Sece-
tary Hay used the Suez canal treaty
as a model in drawing that instrument
But the Senate baked at internation-
alization or even naturalization. 1t
insisted that the United States should
have the right to foritfy the canal.
The first treaty failed and the second
recognized American proprietary right
In the canal.
We built the trans-Isthmian water
way al our own cost. II is a valuable
asset in a military as well as an eVo-
nOmic sense 1t should remain Ameri-
can. 1t is open on equal terms to the
shipping of the world. That is a suf-
fictent measure of internationaliza
tion. There is no divine right OF ac.
cess to the Panama canal" for it was
not created by an act OF Providence.
