Farmers and Indu stru

y
THE Georgia Industrial Bureau is bound
to prove big factor in the develop
ment of the State and its resources
The spirit manifested at the Macon meeting
that formally launched the organization, Is
guarantee that the efforts of the Bureau will
be expended along lines calculated to stimu-
to encourage outsiders to look with favor
upon Georgia for the investment of capital
The Macon conference Is to be congratu-
lated upon the personnel of the board of d.
rectors it elected to direct the activities of the
Bureau. Every member of the directorate is
particularly we'll suited to further the work
that the organization has set itself to, and
pulling together the members of the board
may be expected to achieve results of bene-
fetal nature to the entire state
1t is gratifying to note that the Bureau
went on record favoring close cooperation
with the Georgia Association to the end that
plans may be perfected for team work be-
tween the two organizations that will con-
tribute to the agricultural and industrial de-
velopment of the community. The two bodies
working in harmony and cooperation should
accomplish a world Of good in the fields in
which their endeavors are exerted.
The speech of Senator George, at the Ma
con conference, was especially noteworthy. 1t
displayed a painstaking study of the indus
trial situation in sthe South. The Senator
is entirely right in his contention that Geor-
gia will never fully develop along industrial
lines until technical experts are trained in
our educational institutions, who are COM
petent to lend their skill and knowledge to
the development of industries of all sorts
"The farmers need credits, cooperative
marketing and transportation revisions"
well remarked Senator George But these
things alone will not bring an era of prosper
ity to this section that would naturally en-
sue II each county had an industrial center,
where non-producers of agricultural products
would serve consumers for the diversified
crops of the farmers"
Senator Georges contention is absolutely
sound. The prosperity of the farmer is de-
pendent upon consumers. New England is
industrial all right enough; so are New York
and Pennsylvania. But these sections are not
without their farmers, all of whom are pros
porous because the Industrial centers, with
which these sections are dotted, furnish
ready market for the products of the soil.
The farmers are not dependent upon foreign
or far-removed markets for their sale of their
produce.
The Georgia Industrial Bureau may be re-
lied upon to exert its best efforts to encour-
age the establishment OF new and the en-
largement of old Industries in the state, and
at the same time work with view to helping
the farmers.

MY FAVORITE STORIES
BY Irwin S Cobb

|
The funeral was over The elderly wild
over, having returned from the cemetery,
sat on the front porch Of his small New
Hampshire cottage whistling to himself.
A neighbor passed, and saw the solitary
figure in the shadow of the porch, and halt
ed his team "9e
''Wel, Uncle Gill" he said, striving to
put sympathy into his tones, chow air Won
bearing up?"
"Fust-rate Eph," said the supposedly
bereaved one, cheerfully "Dun't know ez
ever felt better" H.
81 thought mebbe you'd be missin'-her. -
said the astonished neighbor. "she was a
good wife-tuck keer of your home and
raised your children and always s done
mighty we'll by you durin all the thutty
years you lived together" ~
"Yas; I know that" stated the widower.
She done all them things and lived with
her thutty years, Jest ez you was sayin'.
But, gol-dern her, 1 never did like her!"
1t occurs to me that, in this column have
been sighting one of our leading professions.
We have had jokes about physicians and law
yers and clergymen and writer's and artists
and undertakers and second-story workers,
but somehow the dentists have been over
looked. 1t is high time this neglect was cor
rected. Three short ones come to mind:
A country girl went to Charleston S. C.,
to have some work done on her teeth The
operator was cleaning a cavity with a small
blow-pipe. The patient fIinched
do you feel that air?"
That air whut?" asked the young lady
1t Is stated that a young negress visited
a dentist of her own race late one afternoon
to have an aching molar removed.
will you want gas?" inquired the dentist.
Sutttnly III want gas" she answered.
docs you think 1 crave to have strange
man fOolin' round me in de dark?"
Most ancient Of all is the story OF the
young woman who had tooth which must
come out She agreed with the practitioner
that it should be drawn, but each time he
brought the forceps into view she clenched
her jaws tightly together and refused to open
them until he put down the shining instru-
ment to argue with her.
Finally he had an inspiration. He babe his
woman assistant to get a long hatpin from
her hat and station herself just behind where
the Obdurate patient sat.
Now then" he COunseled her, when I get
the fOrcep5 right close to her lips I'll give
you the signal and you lab the hatpin clear
up through the seat of the chair. Naturally
she'll open her mouth to say, 'Ouch!' and
it'll come out in jiffy."
The artifice worked. AS the dentist held
up the ousted tooth he said .soothingIy:
"Now then, that wasn't so bad after all,
was it?''
mo" said the relieved sufferer. "only one =
no idea that the roots of a tooth went down
so deep"

CONSOLATION
BY BERTON BRALEY


DICK at heart and weary?
Out of luck for fair?
Thoughts all dark and dre2y,.
Full of cark and care!
Life amt any good, it
Seems so much askew?
Other guys have stood It
So can you.
You are not the only
Lad who has to face
Sorrow by his lonely,
For bitter space;
Here's the dope, hold to It,
If the prospects blue
Others have lived through it
So will you.
Time will heal some sorrow,
Courage cures the rest,
Now you're down-TomorroW
You may ride the crest;
Woe Is, when you sum it,
Nothing strange or new;
Others overcome it
So can you.

THE SUPERIOR SEX
BY HAZEL DEMO BATCHELORl

What has gone before.-John Steele
marrles Anne Temple knowing that she
has secret in her past which she re
fuses to divulge. He knows, too that she
does not love him, but during their hon
eymoon they are swept irresistibly to-
gether, and for time are very happy
Then Steele begins to think about Anne's
past, and when he finally discovers that
she has child, his mind leaps to but one
conclusion and he accuses her of the
worst. Anne, who has gone through the
horrible degradation of a sordid mar
riage, is too overwhelmed by his anger
to deny anything. That night she leaves
home to go to her child and finds her i'll
with pneumonia. Three days later the
baby dies, and Anne feels that she is to
blame for eyerything.-No go on with
the story.
