GROWING
SAFER

That railways are safe, and con-
stantly growing safer, is the asSer-
ton Of w. A. Winburn OF the
Central of Georgia Railway in an
interesting statement just issued
from his office in Savannah. Mr..
Winburn proves his contention by
quoting facts and figures, and says
that twenty-nine millions Of passen-
gres handled by the Central Of Geor-
gia since passenger riding in a
coach has been fatally injured. The
last fatality OF this nature was more
than five years ago.
The year 1920 was a record one
for heavy traffic, yet the number OF
fatalities on the railroads WAS the
smallest in % years. Traffic III
1921 was not so heavy, and figures
just issued by the Interstate Com
merce Commission show a decrease
of IA per cent. in the number of
fatalities from the previous year.
Mr.. WinburE attributes the fine re-
cord Of the railways in large part to
the fact that employees have been
trained to give safety precedence
over all other things,
The average newspaper reader
will perhaps be surprised to learn
that there are nearl y as many per-
sons drowned accidentally in the
United States in year rs are fatal
ly injured OH the railroads All
statistics for fatalities include auto
mobile Embarrassing accidents and
injuries to trespaesors, for neither
Of which the railways are response
BILE, but which go to make up one
half Of the fatalities.
Mr.. Winburn says that the hand
ling OF heavier business with a
smaller number Of fatalities is
barometer of railway efficiency,
and pledges the renewed efforts of
the Central Of Georgia toward rem
dering to the publica transportation
service of safety and satisfaction, in
which the co. operation Of the pub
lie is asked.

Mothers Day.

OF all the tributes, in celebration,
to us, seemingly the sweetest, the
one that tinges our memory with the
golden glow of the youth that has
been spent and one in which all
humanity can and should join in a
chorus of acclaim for the tender
reverberations OF the noble influence
that thrills our souls, is Mothers
Day"
On Mothers DAY we expect TO enter
the church and see the roses banked
upon table, OIL the one side the
white for the mother who is but a
memory and on the other the red,
signifying that mother is still bless
ing the child with her Smiles and
encouraging love.
You who have mothers yet in
life, forget not the tribute that as a
son-or daughter. is due her. for
soon, yea, too soon, the cycle OF
Time shall have counted off years
OF her servitude and you will
pluck the white rose instead Of the
red and your hearts void will call
aloud for Mother. "

Old Negro Lost In
Swamp Five Days.

Fed Collier, negro residing on
the place of W. z. Youngblood left
the place on Friday to spend a
while on Muckalee Creek fishing. He
was about 70 years old and when he
did not arrive at home during the
night a search was made but no
trace Of him could be found. Dur
ing Sunday and Monday the search
ers continued their hunt for the old
negro and it was finally decided that
he had fallen in the creek and drown
ed, but on Tuesday morning some
negroes working in the swamp found
him almost starved sitting on log.
The old negro stated he had been
without food or water during the en-
tire time and is at this time still in
bad shape.

Georgia Peach Growers
Expect Prosperous
Season.

With the successful outcome Of
the 1921 marketing season fresh in
mind, Georgia peach growers are
looking enthusiastically forward to the
1922 deal which opens about the
middle OF this month.
Approximately $1,000 carloads of
peaches were moved out Of the State
last year. This was more than one
third Che carlot movement Of peach
es.for the entire country owing to
the short crop elsewhere and double
the quantity OF Georgia peaches mar
keted in 1920. The Georgia crop
was carefully grown and distributed
last year, and met with less compe-
tition than usual from other fruit
growing section where spring frost
had injured the crop. Georgia
peaches reached the highest iobbing
price of the season during the week
ending August /.
1t is not improbable that within
a few years as many as 1000 cars
of peaches will be produced in Geor-
gia FOR market, III the opinion of
several large growers and buyers.
In the past the ravages of brown rot
and curculio have caused heavy
financial loss to growers and buyers,
but last year considerable loss from
insects and disease was prevented
by a campaign Of systematic spray
ing and insect control conducted
co operatiyely by the Geogia State
Board of Entomology and the United
States Department of Agriculture
and the occurrence of generally
favorable climatic conditions.
