EDITORIAL

The Wayne County News, publish
ed at Waynesboro has changed hands
again, Geo. Fitzpatrick having sold
out his the controlling interest to
Harvey Hurt, who it seems has pre-
yiously worked with the paper and
now comes to it from Meridian as
It's principal stockholder-its owned
corporately-and editor and mana
ger. Fitzpatrick states in his vale
dictory editorial that he does not
know where he will go out is out
for bigger game" or in other words
seeks bigger town for location.
We have no acquaintance with young
Mr.. Hurt but assume from the liber-
al commentator which Mr.. Kilpat-
rich gives him as well as his own
opening bow, that he is quite a cap
able chap to serve the Wayne Coun-
ty and Waynesboro people in news
paper way and we watt him our sim
sere best wishes.

All the people OF the earth joins
England and Ireland in rejoicing
over the seeming happy solution up
on which they have hit for the IrisA
problem. which has rightly been
called The open Sore of the World. =
Ireland is to assume Dominion rela-
tions to the British Empire similar
to Canada, Australia and the South
African dominions and is to take the
name OF the Irish Free State" a
similar name to the Orange Free
State. Let us hope that the situa-
ton in the Emerald Isle will now
work itself out rapidly for con-
tented condition for it's long unhap-
by people.

Prohibition Aims to Save Young Genera
ton from Temptation.

Fayette Chronicle.
Some folks say that prohibition is
failure because the law is constant
" being violated. By the same
token the laws against murder,
arson, burglary, ETC., are also a
failure, Nobody expects TO accom-
plish the absolute adjustment of the
rum traffic within the short time
that National prohibition has been
in effect. All the same the quality
ofsliquors manufactured and consum-
ed has been materially reduced, and
in like manner the sum total of mis-
cry, poverty, wretchedness and
drunken depravity has been reduced.
Old booze heads, like old opium a
diets, are not going to quit as long
as alcoholic drinks can be had, but
prohibition is having the effect OF
saving the young generation from
the temptations of the legalized traf-
fie

When Autumn Comes

Autumn brings with it a lot OF tasks
that belong peculiarly to the fall OF
the year. Some of these are the work
that comes simply because it's Autumn,
the time OF harvest-of garnering.
Some of these tasks come because
Winter is following along on the hre s
OF Autumn and preparation must be
made before the ICY blasts cpme, TO-.
the shut-in days and the long nights Of
the winter season.
Autumn is the time to get every
thing snug-to replace all broken Will
dow panes, to put back into the place
the cellar windows, co get the winter s
fuel supply housed in a good, dry
place if that has not already been taken
care of earlier in the saasoD.
When the evenings begin to lengthen
and indications come again of the long
evenings that are ahead, it is a good
time to think about the lighting sys-
tenn and to decide whether the present
lighting system is good enough for the
coming winter. If this is the old, coal
oil-lamp system, 1t will pay 20 investi
gate the subject of electricity for light
ing the farm or subur ban home. Elec-
tricty can be had for lighting nowadays
III an lOCdlltYs ny IACouo VI ohS " VI "
small, individual electric plants and the
farmer who will put one Of these to
work on his premises will be sure of
modern lights for the long winter
evenings ahead.
But he should not wait until winter
to plan for it. Electric lights mean
electric wiring, the same as for house
IN the city. An electric plant will re-
quire concrete base for support and
this should be made while the work can
be done in comfort. 1t is a mean job
mixing concrete in the winter time
and while is a small one to make a
base for the lighting plant. it's smaller
than ever if it is made during nice aut-
umn weather. And many thousand
farmers and their families are declaring
that it makes autumn more enjoyable to
be able to look forward to winter even
ings with plenty of bright electric light
light in The home instead Of the coal
oil lamp.
