FAVOR WOMEN
FOR DEACONS


MOULTRIE, April 24-The South
west Georgia PresDytery which has
just ended its spring session here,
went on record as being in favor of
admitting women as members of the
board Of deacons. The action was in
answer to an overture from the gen
eral assembly, of the church. Another
oerture that was answered by the
presbytery in the affirmative was
that which limits the terms of office
of elders and deacons. The over
ture proposes to give each church the
kliberty every five years OF re-electing
, its elders and deacons, either drop
ping or adding any whom the congre-
cation may desire to seat or unseat
in these offices. This overture is con-
trary to the historic custom of the
Presbyterian church, and it is certain
that there will be warm debate on
it at the meeting of the general as
sembly in Charleston, w. Va, in May,
according to delegates to the Presby-
terry here. The Southwest Georgia
presbytery by it's action on the two
proposals has definitely aligned itself
with the progressive element of the
church, but in Presbyterian circles in
this section of the state it is doubted
that this element will prevail at the
Forthcoming session of the general
assembly.
The reports submitted to the pres
bytery here revealed that the
churches composing it have made fine
progress during the past few months.
The three churches showing the larg-
est number of additions were: AL
bany, Moultrie and Townsville. The
total additions to these three churches
were 172. Quitman and cambridge
churches also made good reports.
Rev. D. w. Brannen, of Moultrie,
and V. M. Custer, of cambridge, were
elected commissioners to the general
assembly. j. M. Patterson, of Boston,
acted as moderator at the presbytery
and Rev. R. F. Simpson, of Donald
sonville, preached the opening SER
mon. The attendance was large,
practically every church in the pres
bytery being represented.

HONEY PHILOSOPHY FOR 1922

One fellow said the early bird
catches the worm, and the other fell
low said the worm was a. fool for get
ting up in the morning. Maybe they're
both right. It's funny how things ex-
actly opposite are often exactly the
same. It's as cold at the south pole
as it is at the north pole, if you can
believe what the explorers say, and
nobody seems to doubt them. Hustle
a little harder, do a bit more than the
other fellow, some folks say, and then
others say that's a scheme Of the rich
to get the poor to work more for less.
or course, if everybody followed the
plan there wouldn't be anything to it,
but what's the use of Twin in a theo-
retical world when we have a real
thing with us every day? Maybe doin'
the thing we have TO do thoroughly is
the best bet. There's so few people de-
livertn' the goods nowadays that an
honest days work is a curiosity. Also
it's an asset.

o MORNING JUDGE

That is what you'll be saying IL you
allow public nuisances to exist on or
near your premises in American Falls.
Manure piles must be removed from
alleys, lots and barn yards.
You are also likely to greet the judge
If you allow a vicious dog free range
within the city limits without a muz-
zle. If your dog bites or has bitten
anyone, better muzzle it, say the city
fathers. Chris Barbre will have no
computations about sending the I'M
muzzled CANNES to their happy hunt

USING OUR OWN
SUMMER RESORT.

Where shall you spend the summer
By the lakeside, green freed valleys,
at the beach or a dozen other places
but probably not at home-in American
Falls. Yet few little cities in the west
offer the attractions that are offered
by the Power City.
Would you go boating on jackson
Lake? Then why spurn boating in
your own back yard, on Snake River
that harbors a thousand coy places
that you have never seen.
Would you go fishing? A million
speckled beauties have been planted
in Power County streams within the
last three years. Salmon trout abb md
in the fascinating Snake and many a
fisherman puts the zest in life nv
trowling her ripping waters.
Would you go hunting? There is
big game in the southern part of the
county. Many local hunters have
gone hundreds of miles farther and
brought home less.
Do you enjoy golf, swimming and
picknicking? Go to Indian Springs.
See Power County first. Enjoy her
attractions first. Utilize her pleasure
resources, encourage people to stay
at home. Invite your friends to come
to American Falls, where all these
attractions abound. Use your own
summer resort.

HIGH TAXES.


The universal cry is against high
taxes. The cry should not be against
high taxes, but against the corrupt use
of taxes. The question of high or low
taxes is to some extent governed by
the valuation put upon property from
the public treasury. Crush the social
istic paternal spirit growing up in
this country, whether in the form of
the pork barrel or government owner
ship of public utilities. All such I'M
constitutional doctrines and practices
are increasing the taxes to the break
ing point.
The continued excessive tax burdens
can be traced to certain abuses:
First: Extravagant complicated
governments. The office seekers, Of
flee holders, and tax eaters have null
hplied government machinery to per-
petuate themselves in office. If you
would reduce the machinery and throw
out OF office the inefficient, rat-hole
hunting office parasites you would re-
duce the cost of municipal, county,
state and national governments 80 per
cent To-day, you have about sixty
cents of every dollar of tax money in
vested in government, and the other
