RIGHT AND WRONG.

There are two sides to the movie
picture censorship. Good pictures
don't appeal to bad people, and vice
versa.-Commerce Observer.
The Observer is both right and
wrong. Good pictures do not appeal
to bad people nor do bad pictures al
ways appeal to good people; but
children and young people are often
influenced by bad pictures when we
cannot say they are bad people, and
there's the worst feature of picture
shows. The immense amount of
"spooning and near-immorality" in
the movies is disgusting and also ex-
ceedingly dangerous to the future
generation. Such scenes, if enacted
on the streets, would be prohibited by
law and so should be forbidden in the
picture shows.

Mr.. Scarborough has by experiment
found that where chickens roam in a
cotton field there are no weevils. To
induce the chickens to seek food
where cotton is growing, he plants
oats or other small grain, which does
not interfere with the cotton, and
then he turns in the chickens.
To farmers who will have cotton
acreage next year, Mr.. Scarborough
suggests that they plant their cotton
close to their homes, and not too great
an acreage. Sow oats among the cotg
ton and let the chickens do the rest.
He says the thing has been tried not
only on his own land, but by other
farmers in this county, and it works
out well every time.

Agitating Moratorium.

The governor of Louisiana has issued proclaim
alton calling on all ginners to close their gins during
the month of November, and has asked the govern
ors OF all cotton states to do the same thing
The commissioner of agriculture of the state Of
Alabama, Hon. M. c. Allgood is asking a sixty-day
moratorium in that state the sale of cotton These
are efforts on the part of heads of government to
prevent the pushing of cotton too rapidly into the
market thus getting it out of the hands of farmers
at low prices and into the hands of Spectators to
hold for advance of prices, which are sure to come
These are temporary expedients, and may serve
purpose for TIME. Farmers should be able to get
up financial organization of their own with funds
enough to enable them to hold their cotton and to
sell it during the year as it is needed by the mills
for export They have ample means, when united
throughout the entire cotton producing states to
finance such body Of course there would be many
who would share in the advantages of such plan
and not contribute to it's support but such is the
case in all matters of public interest Many people
pay taxes to public schools who do not have children
to educate, and the same with other public matters

THE PRIVILEGE OF THE BALLOT

Man often thought!essly boasts that
his vote is own.
The ballot is a scared privilege,
bought with the blood Of patriots.
1t carries with the obligations of
good citizenship.
Ne man has the right to exercise
this heritage for the promotion of
his twa omitiion; for selfish purposes
tore~a-d his friends or to punish his
eninies. He has the right to ose his
BALI only for the good Of his coun-
try AID the welfare of his fellow
ma Waen he exercises this privil-
ege . vent a spite or to exalt a
friend, he betrays a trust ha he
should hold sacred
The ballot is the prerogative Of
peoples right TO govern themselves.
1t came to us by slow process of
revolution, stained deeply red with
the lfa Blood Of many centuries Of
patTiotJ The movement which
brought it TO US is as old as history;
IS old as mans desire for personal
independence 1t found its FIST great
victory in Magma Charta; it inspired
the patriots who shouldered rifles at
Lexington; it enabled them to endure
Valley Forge, and it magnifed vic
tory at Yorktown. 1t fired the vaor
Of the Sons of the South in the Sixties
and it inspired the knghtly courage
of the millions of young Americans
who dared wide seas and implacable
and powerful foes to wrest from mon
archy and imperialism the freedom
of the oppressed peoples of the
world
1t is because man does not remem-
her; because he does not take time to
think; because he is too selfish to
want TO think, that he has grown to
consider he ballot AS right, to be
exercised at his own will and pleas

Hold for Cost of Production.

The farmer should have the right to hold for the
cost of production of his products, just the mer-
chant holds his goods until he gets cost. OF course
there may be a few where merchants and man
ufacturers sell below cost but these are rare
No one expects them to sell for less than cost then
why should farmer sell Until he realizes cost and
reasonable profit?
When this idea prevails throughout the land and
every man, be he merchant, manufacturer, banker
what-not, assists the farmer in his efforts then
the country will prosper All are equally interested
in the farmers prosperity, and the whole country
prospers with him.
Help the producer hold his cotton until he gets
fair price. This is true patriotism.

WHITTIER?

The Free Press has been observing
for thirty years woe full tendency
among our people to disrespect and
disregard the governments under
which we live. This disrespect has
been produced by men who do not
understand and appreciate the great
freedom which we of this fair land
are permitted to enjoy. They do not
seem to realize that liberty abused,
soon produces anarchy.
In some Georgia papers we see
references to the President that
would lead stranger to believe our
country is being governed by a thief
or murderer. Some of the men
who write these scurrilous articles
are themselves public men. In the
name of Heaven, What are we coming
to? Are we going to teach our
children to disrespect and disregard
our country by talking and writing
in this strain about our public men?
Is it not time to call a halt? Had we
not better a thousand times that the
other man or the other party win the
election than that we undermine the
very pillars of our government by
sowing in the minds of the young the
suspicion that all our public men are
corrupt?
May the God who guided and dir
ected at the birth of this free nation
silence our tongues and paralyze our
arms when we start to speak or write
anything that would sow the seed of
anarchy in the mind of any American
l-Alpharetta Free Press.
The Free Press is right. The very
foundations Of the government may
easily be, and we fear they are being
undermined by the teachings allowed
to go UNPUBLISHED in public prints and
speeches. Several to our knowledge
have called President Wilson a"per-
jurer," "usurper," and other public
men have been equally maligned and
abused. Formerly such ofenses
were met in this country by chal-
lenge to fight duel The govern
ment's good name is the very essence
of Liberty itself and the head of the
government is difficult to distinguish
from the government, so that the
youth or unlettered man knows no
difference between them. Les Ma
jesty will yet be made a crime in or
der to prevent bringing the country's
coed name into disrepute. There's
little difference in insulting the coun-
try's good name and its flag.
Ou courts of justice recognize. this
principle and readily fine those who
get in contempt of the court. By
this means alone they may and do
maintain the dignity of the court"

Every Druggist in U. S. In
structed to Refund Price
While You Wait at Count
er if Relief Does Not Come
Within Two Minutes.
Delightful Taste, Immediate
Relief, Quick Warm Up.

The sensation of the year in the
drug trade is Aspirondl, the two
minute cold and cough reliever, au-
thoritatively guaranteed by the labora-
tories; tested, approved and most
enthusiastically endorsed by the high
est authorities, and proclaimed by
the common people as ten times as
quick and effective as whiskey, rock
and rye, or any other cold and cough
remedy they have ever tried.
All drug stores are now supplied
with the wonderful new elixir, so all
you have to do to get rid of that cold
is to step into the nearest drug store,
hand the clerk half dollar for a bottle
of Aspironal and tell him to serve you
two teaspoonfuls with four teaspoon
fuls of water in a glass. With your
watch in your hand, take the drink
at one swallow and call for your money
back in two minutes if you cannot
feel vonr cold fading away like dream
within the time limit. Don't be bash
full, for all druggists invite you and
expect you to try it. Everybody's do
ing it.
When your cold or cough is re-
ieyed, take the remainder of the bottle
home to vo1r wife and babies, for
Aspironal is by far the safest and most
effective, the easiest to take and the
most agreeable cold and cough remedy
for infants and children.-(Adv)

ure. 1t is rot right; it is trust.
1t is a privilege bought with blood,
with sacrifice, with the life devotion
of men of high minds and pure i'm
pulses.
The man who casts his ballot for
any ether purpose than his country's
welfare is unworthy of it. If he
uses it for his own advancement he
is an Migrate He cannot exercise
the privilege without assuming the
obEgato0s.
First Of these is that he must vote
for he best man and the best qualified
man. This, that his country shall be
served by the most competent men.
Second, he must vote for the clean
est man; by putting clean in posi-
tons Of trust only can the country be
kept clean in high places.
Third, he must vote fer the most
moral man. The man who lives a
moral life, who believes in churches
and schools and the preceptS OF re
ligion. cannot vote for an immoral
man for public office without stulti-
flying himself, and undoing by his
ballot those things which he osten-
sibjy lives for.
A conscientious man can vote only
for tho most competent man; the
clean man cannot vote for the man
who is unclean; the moral man can
not vote for the man VIGOROUSLY i'm

these things and maintain their prin-
ciples.
1t is with an understanding of the
priceless value of the ballot and the
obligations which itentails, as we'll as
the privileges that it confers that
the conscientious man should APP
proach the ballot box. Realizing
these, he cannot vote otherwise than
for the man he considers the best
qualified, the cleanest in principle and

AMERICAN WASTE IN AUTOS.

1t is said that Americans own more
automobiles than all other nations.
Statistics show about one machine to
each 5 people in this country. The
automobile is a necessity; it is also
an expensive luxury. The old blue
back speller used to tell US that Few
men can afford to own a COACH but
in these modern time it looks like
all think they can afford to own an
automobile. When cotton gets back
to its pre-war price, We'll find that 80
cent oil soon eats up hundred lbs.

The one, is republican, opposed to everything, al
most that democrats have espOused for years; the
other, democratic, and opposed to the republican
idea of national affairs and republican methods.
new and important factor in the race is the pro-
posed League Of Nations. Both parties divided
this issue in the last session of congress- and
until this day. But the leaders are Harding, who
opposes the League with without. reservations,
according to his late speeches. although he voted
for it twice with reservations: and Cox, who favors
the League. and openly avows his intention to have
it ratified by the senate, if possible.
At no period in history has the South been
more interested than now. The past few years have
seen many negroes migrate North, and the repub-
licans making earnest appeals to these to help
elect Harding This would tie up the republican par
