DISAPPOINTMENT
AWAITS MOST CITIES

The enumerators who have been
engaged in taking the census the past
few weeks are for the most part
through their work and we regret
that disappointment awaits many
towns.
Atlanta, was one of the first to
send in distress call'' and the cry
has continued; but with all of her
efforts she will fall many thousand
short of her anticipations; the people
simply are not there.
Columbus has counted on a big in
crease in her population and because
the enumerators fail to find them, her
newspapers and Chamber of Com
merce have been having "conniption
fits" and making faces at the Super
visor, but all they may do along that
line will not increase the number of
people living in that splendid town.
The only trouble with them, as with
Atlanta is that the people are not
there to be counted.
Lagrange, some weeks ago extend
ed her corporate limits, taking in
more other mills and their operators
and with flourish of trumpets an
nounced in the Atlanta papers that
that hustling and prosperous little
city had $4,000 people living within
her gates. But alas. The enumera-
tors fail to find them by several thou
sand, perhaps eight or ten, and heart
broken or pride wounded her splen-
dids.war work teams have been called
to work and they too are making a
house to house canvass hunting the
lost tribes, uncounted by Uncle
Sans enumeraEors; here to, only
disappointment a waits them, like
Atlanta, Macon, Columbus and other
cities, hers were not growing pains"
The mountain in labor brought forth
a mouse.
Now all of these, including Car
rollton, are good towns land Car
roliton is going to be sadly disap-
pointed, none more so, than the
Times), but they are short of the
people they thought they had, and
by no sort of legerdemain or slight
of hand work can they boost their
population.
The Times had presaged a popula-
ton of not less than $500 and to the
end that we might get all we were
entitled to we lent all possible help
to the supervisor in his efforts to
secure efficient and competent emu
merators to take the census; and we
feel that we succeeded and secured

two of the best to be had; and we
are confident that their work has
been accurate, painstaking and inn
partial; and yet, we are going to
fall short of our expectations, badly
short simply because the people are
not living here to be counted.
The reason for this shortage is be-
yond our ken. However we shall ven
ture to suggest two possible causes
that have cntributed to this shortage,
First the lack of houses to contain
the people who might otherwise be
living here; the remedy for this is in
the building of more houses, so that
ten years from now, when Uncle Sam
sends out his counters they will find
more noses to count.
But by all odds the shortage arises
from the fact that it is no longer
fashionable for woman to assume the
duties, burdens and pleasures OF
motherhood; there are no longer any

ter OF Christ. We have but to real
lie our ministry and make it prac-
teal, and so give account of our
stewardship.
What precious idea! Stewards
OF God and ministers of Christ!
What privilege to be the hands
OF Christ! To be the message bear
ers Of the Christ, telling His good
/ news to others by word and life! To
be His mouth-piece, speaking words
OF sympathy and encouragement!
To be the extension of His influence +!
To be His insrtument-His agent! To
De the organ through which His
Spirit may find expression, and so
mlnistering His goodness!
s 1t IS a sacred trusteeship to be a
mana woman; but more so to be
a Christian, for then the Christ has
made deposit, and we must give an
amount of this gracious trust. And
we must so KNOW the riches of our
life whether in money, in talents or
IN personality. And we shall feel
that God, the King and loving Faith
er keeps close to His minister. to
guard, guide and help. Think of it
ministers of Christ and His Gospel!
Ministers with Christ in His influ-
ence!
And so in the sacred season Of
Lent, let us awaken to new purpose
and new start. Let us learn to kill
self, that Christ may live and grow
within. For one chief purpose, that
he may flow out to others. What
broad opportunity we have for the
expression of stewardship, in home
parish-life, social-life, business life,
touching every province of human
life. And, o stewards, let us help one
another to be faithful, as they who
must give account of themselves to
the judge of the quick and the dead!
And maye we teach ourselves to love
the things that God commands, and
to desire that which He has promised.
Amen.

SERMON AT ST. JAMES

The subject Sunday was on the
Stewardship of Life" That our life
is stewardship is not generally con-
sidered at all, but none the less it
is a fact. 1t is imprinted on the life
that is given us by God. 1t is writ
ten with emphasis in the Bible.
The words and the life of Christ
hammer the idea into our consciences
"Ye are not your ownw
And so the fact remains a fact
whether we admit it and act upon it
or not, and we shall be held respon-
sible whether we plead ignorance of
it or not. Christ's command was
Give an account of thy steward
ship" In other words that command
runs through the Scriptures. 1t is
personal. We do not have to bother
about somebody else's duty in the
matter: We do have to render an ac-
count for our own.
10 Life is trust to US from God. It
is to be used for Him and under His
direction. 1t is to be accounted for
to Him on demand. This may hap
pen suddenly, as thief in the night
or it may be prolonged even as the
sun falleth toward the western hills.
Our so called possessions are al
so trust from Him. Life and all
incidentals are Gods. Too often we
hear one spirit say: 81 have given
my life to God. I will do what will
with my possessions!' While anoth-
er says II give my possessions to God
| will do what / will with my life"
One would say that his things are
his own; the other that his life is his
own. Both are non-Christian; hardly
strong enough to be considered an
ti-Christian.
But truly another spirit speaks:
Il am Gods. All that l am and all
that l have is His in trust" One
does not speak of giving time, mon
ey, etc., but more truly of giving
self. Onself included all of life's
extensions and ramifications, into
time, business or society, wherever
ones interests lie.
But this feeling of abandonment
to God is not of emotion or instan-
taneous action, but rather matter
of growth growth in knowledge
grace, and in favor with God. But
when once undertaken, the returns
on the investment are so great that
one is led to larger investment,
and then one realizes that the divi-
dends on having invested the life in
Gods business are many times COM
pounded, and that every province
of life becomes of great moment to
such spirit.
The Ministry of Stewards.
If we are stewards, then we have
a ministry. Each of us is minis

IN MEMORIAM

When loved ones leave us it is al
ways sad, but when the sting of death
is taken away there is mingled with
our sorrow, rejoicing that they are
with the Lord. Such is our feeling
when we think of the home going of
Mrs. Cornelia Dorsey, who left US
for the glory world, in Gainesville,
Ga, FRIDAY, February 27. Her death
was not unexpected, for she had been
afflicted with an incurable malady
for many months, and God commit
ted great trust to her in giving this
burden of pain. He knew she would
not fail to honor Him, even in her
physical anguish.
1t seemed to our limited vision she
did not need this ordeal, and yet we
do not doubt that in the light of
eternity, the cross she bore with so
Christian like a spirit, will add a
glory to the radiance of our King.
A warm friend, a fearless advocate,
interested in all things, she kept
young in mind and heart, though she
was eighty years of age, sorrows were
hers, and one by one all her family,
save one son, John T. Dorsey, left
her for the beyond. Her only SIS
ter, Mrs. Harriet Hawkins, proceed
ed her just one month, and it was a
coincidence that she was buried on
this sisters birthday. She was a
staunch Presbyterian, and loyal to

big families, the old fashioned fanai-
lies OF eight, ten and twelve have
disappeared, especially in the cities.
The stork has grown to be most un-
welcome guest.
Possibly half the white families of
the cities will not average more than
one child to the family, and SO very
large per centage of the younger
families have no children at all.

are correct or not.

The first symptoms are lameness,
and on examination the foot is found
to be feverish and the skin in the
cleft of the hoof red and swollen.
Soon matter or pus forms in the cleft,

the disease gets under the skin and
spreads under the entire horn or

Sheep Enjoy a High, Dry Place to
Rest-Wet, Muddy Yards Cause
Sore Feet.

The thing for the farmer to do as
soon as he discovers the lame sheep
Is to get busy and stop the trouble
before it reaches the advanced
chronic stage. If the outbreak &C.
ours in winter or spring the first
thing is to provide dry quarters If
possible. If it happens in summer
put the sheep on the driest pasture
obtainable until cured.
Method Of Treatment.
If there are but few sheep on the
farm they can be caught and eacl
foot treated separately. Treatment
consists of cleaning all mud and
filth from between the toes and ap-
plying something that will cure. In
practical experiences nothing has
proven better than pulverized blue
stone or blue vitriol (sulphate of
coppcr), mixed with vinegar or water
to batter and applied with pad
die to the sore. If the lame sheep
are neglected until the disease gets
deep-seated all the horn must be
pared away from diseased parts with
a sharp knife so the remedy can
reach the sore. The right way Is not
to allow the trouble to reach that
stage
