The Capitol
Removal

With the appropriation this
summer by the Legislature of
about 100000 to purchase a
home for the Governor and an
other appropriation of $780,
600 for repairs to the State Capt.
tol building, we witnessed the
demise of the capital removal
agitation that has worried At
lanta and cost both Atlanta and
Macon quite sum of money
for lobbying purposes.
Eventually the Capitol build
ing will be enlarged or annexes
constructed nearby. Already
old homes are being used by
some of the departments and the
general outlook about the Capt.
toll on two sides is anything but
inviting. 1t is no credit to
Georgia.
But the Capitol removal agi-
tation is past. Atlanta will con-
tine as the State capital city.
Which is as it should be.

for many years afterwards. Those
who hold this theory claim that
abnormally long drouths always
have been followed by notably in
creased crop yields. We have no
records to confirm this opinion,
but it is plausible and it also is
pleasant at this time to accept it
as possible compensation for the
suffering that is now being ex-
perienced. Nature operates by
rules of compensation and equal
ization that always move toward
beneficial results. What may
appear today 20 be disastrous,
tomorrow may be recognized as
beneficial. Things of nature nor
mally are given US lavishly end
In return for comparatively lit
tie effort, but occasionally man
kind is required to sustain hard
ships and to undergo perils for
the requirement of the things that
the Cretaor has made available
to the inhabitants of the earth.
No matter what happens all of us
now have the distinction of hav-
ing lived during the worst drouth
every experienced in this section.
That may not mean much to us
now, but half a century hence,
If this drouth is not exceeded in
the meantime, when the tenden-
cy will be to put US on the shelf,
it will be delightful morsel for
conversation.
Many of us, as grandparents,
are likely some day to ride a
youngster on our knee and when
he asks grandfather for a story,
we shall tell him of the terrible
drouth of 1925, when the trees
died and whole sections of the
country became a waste, with
food for neither man nor beast.
We will enlarge on that story
and eager ears will convey a tale
of suffering that will seem well
nigh impossible. Such is life.
1t has been a season that tried
the souls of men. 1t has been
summer when the mother and
young babe suffered most. But
real men and real women have
battled on through the heat and
the dust and devastation, plan
ing to pickup anew when rain
does come.
It's all in life. The path is a
bit stony at times, but the broad
highway eventually is reached,
and brave men are stronger for
the fight. The weaker do not
count in life's scheme.

A DIFFERENCE
IN SALARIES

Robert t. Kane, moving picture
producer, offers some American
university $4,000 year to hire a
professor to teach young men to
earn $4,000 year in the movies.
One wonders, if any university
can find man for the job, how
long it can keep him at that salary.
