Words of Wisdom From Our Colquitt
County Contemporary:

Farmers should remember that only
those who have monopoly are max
ing a profit now Where there is
competition there is business at loss
Railroads are losing, merchants are
losing, lawyers are losing, doctors are
losing, contractors are losing, lumber
men are losing, laborers, many out OF
jobs, are losing
We do not think that a farmer had
any chance to make profit or to
break even in 1920 We do think he
has passed the worst We are sure
the farmer who continues to grieve
over his losses of last year makes a
mistake. Grieving brings no relief.
Complaining wins nothing. 1t is
cheerfulness that wins. Cheerfulness,
industry, frugality, hard work and
wise management The man who is
looking back is as practical and SEN
sible as Lots wife. If he keeps look
ing back, he will turn to salt or vine

THE SHARED THOUGHT

THE SHARED THOUGHT
A wise man saide "a thought is never really mine
Until | share

Is thought like love---Both divine
And God himself is no the Father til
According to His will
He has revealed hmself--And So

No thought is really mine til
Have shared it with another who
Can feel, appreciate it as true

And found Solitary One
But Happiness searched til she found

to make city out of Athens, half
the town burns down and he's got
to start over. However, Athens is a
good town and its business men cour-

PRESIDENTIAL FACTS

Warren G. Harding, who took office yesterday as the twenty ninth president of the United States, is the first president to be elected to that high office on his birthday. He was 55 years old November 2, 1920. He is the first U. $. senator elected to the presidency.
 President Harding is the seventh president contributed to the country by the state of Ohio. Only Virginia, with total of eight presidents born within her borders, outranks Ohio in this regard. No president has been. born west of Ohio. No president has resided west of Illinois.
 President Harding is the seventh president of Scotch, Irish paternal ancestry. Fifteen of our president, over the period of 133 years, have been of Eng fish decent, three of Scotch, one of Welsh and two of Dutch.
 The average age of our pre- Sident at inauguration is 54 years, approximately, while the
 
 has been 66 years.
 President Harding exemplifies the rapid raise possible of Amer ican life better than any of his predecessors. He was not in cluded in the 1914 Is "Who's Who"
 Like many of his predecessors also, his parents were not wealthy and he has risen to the highest office within the gift of the American people through frugality, industry and thrift, of which he is warm exponent, as evidenced by his recent approval of the Governments Thrift and Savings work repre- Sented in the sales of Thrift.
