Mistaken Identity.


The following story about an
absent-minded bishop is being
whispered around in ecclesiastical
circles; At the end of firing
day he was conducting a confirma-
ton service, at which there was a
large number of candidates.
The last candidate to come up
was an old man with a perfectly
bald head. The bishop placed his
hand upon his head in the usual
manner, but in the most unusual
manner was heard to exclaim as
he did so:

time to emulate the example Of q
wealthy farmer in my state. He
was noted for years as an old mis-.

ward, a poor man, who had been
burned out and had nothing fol
his family to eat, came to him for
help. The former thought he
would be liberal and give the man
a ham from his smoke-house. On
his way to get it the tempter
whispered to him:
"Give him the smallest one you
have"
He had a struggle with himself
as to whether he should give him
a large or a small ham, but finally
he took the largest one he could
find.
"You are fool" the devil
whispered to him.

Doctors have found bv experience
that no medicine for colds. coughs,

until the liver is made thoroughly
active. That is why the first step
in the treatment is the nausealess
calomel tablets called Calotabs,
which are free from the sickening
and weakening effects of the Ga
style calonel Doctors also point
out the fact that an active liver may
go a long way towards preventing
Influenza and colds and is one of
the most important factors in en-
abling the patient to successfully
withstand an attack and ward off
pneumonia.

means of transportation are the
basis Of progress, 1t is true. Go
to. any section of this country
that has good roads and you will
find that there is opportunity for
progress that could not exist 9th
erwise. A lot has been said
about California and North Car
DINA. They have attracted more
attention recently from think
ing men than any other states of
the Union. Why? Simply me-
cause. they have found it possible
to make excellent progress in
productions and in the selling of
then products. Have you been
in North Carolina recently? Did
YOU notice that the farms look

TO Double TOBACCO
CROP NEXT SEASON
South Georgia Planters Recog-
nized as Producers Of High
Glass Weed

VALDOSTA, Nov. by As
ISOLATED Press The tobacco crop
of the past year was the hest ever
produced in Georgia and an in
crease OF 100 per cent in acreage
next year will be recorded, e. G..
Westbrook, tobacco specialist Of
the State College of Agriculture,
today said IN an address prepared
Tor delivery before a large assem-
bly of farmers and business men
at the Educational Fair.
THE crop Of last year was the
first to create favorable consider
alton from tobacco buyers the
speaker said. eve have at last
been recognized as producers OF
high quality tobacco. 1t has taken
seven years to gain this recogni-
ton We did not get it sooner be-
cause many oil our farmers did not
learn a number of the fine points
Of the business until they had b1en
through several years Of experience
We can maintain our reputation
only by producing high quality to-
bacco.
If the tobacco crop is increased
as much next year, as conditions
now indicate, there will be more
tobacco produced by the new grow
ers than the total crop for this
year Large quantities Of low grade
tobacco next year would Ge@fess
our markets and create dissatisfac-
ton
THE outlook at present indi-
Gates that we are likely to meet
keen competition next season due
to an expected large increase IN
the acreage in the Carolina and
Virginia. The best way TO m aet
this competition Is with high quail
ity tobacco.
The speaker advised the farmers
not to Jump in and jump OUT
Of the tobacco farming Industry as
those who followed this practice,
he said, usually failed.
The farmers ,wh9 have done
most in the tobacco business
are those who have stayed in the
business through the bad years as
well as through the good ones" he
stated.

THE LAWMAKING MANIA

Uncle Sam is afflicted with the
lawmaking disease. His case is
the worst in the history of the
world.
The output is so large the law
Libraries cannot house it, the
lawyers cannot digest or qssimil-
ate it.
1t is said to be face that the
AZ state legislatures enact more
laws than are ven proposed by
five great nations.
The ratio before the war was
fifty new laws nour country to
one by any great nation of Eu-
rope.
1t takes ESQ large volumes to
hold in printed form the Supreme
Court opinions on questions Of
constitutionality.
The law library of Columbia
University contains 100000 vol
umes and increases at rate of
5000 a year.
Why not stop manufacturing
so many laws, try enforcing some
of them and repeal some Of the
others?
A smaller legislative output
would be an evidence of political
sanity.-The Vienna News.
