The Family Altar.

Editor Dawson News: | wish to use as a
basis OF what | shall say in this article the
10th verse of the 9th chapter OF jeremiah:
Thus saith the Lord stand we in the ways,
and see and ask for the old paths, where IS
the good way, and walk therein, and we shall
find rest for your souls. But they said we
will not walk therein
Give us the old path OF family prayer,
where father and mother are found once each
day with their children gathered around the
hearthstone reading Gods word and offering
I'D prayer for His divine guidance through
each day. AS one of old has put it: Family
PRAYER is a natural and necessary acknoWl-
edgement of our dependence upon God, and
the mmeasurable obligations we are under
to His goodness
Let us ask you, dear reader on what OBJ
legations does the act of sacred worship rest!
Is it not the social nature by which man is
distinguished? Think on these things and If
you have no family altar in your home erect
one at once. For a household in which lam
lily prayer is devoutly attended to, with the
reading of the scriptures, is to my mind
school of religious instruction. By daily
attendance on such exercises children are
taught more effectualy to pray; suitable
topics are suggested to them, and here 1t IS
they get familiar with Gods word. May
not lust here ask you who have had the sweet
parents where the family altar was establish
ed in your home, whether you do not now
often recall with solemn tenderness what you
felt in this domestic worship. How admirable
your parents at such seasons This being
true why not return once again to the old
path and have true religion in the home?
| may also remind you of the old path OF
the family as a whole attending divine SER
vices on the Sabbath and taking some active
part in same. | cannot see how anyone who
calls themselves Christians ever drift
from these two old paths that have had such
influence for good upon our forefathers in
days gone by. My prayer is for an outpour-
ing of the old time religion in our homes;
let us take a step backward along this line,
and at the same time we will be going for
ward Parents, | also ask you to get your
Bibles down and read Deuteronomy, 9th
chapter, 4th verse through the 9th verse.
Here you will find what one of your duties
is as a parent. | will not quote it at this
time, but only ask you to search it out and
see if you are living up to Gods command;
il not what excuse have you to offer for this
neglect OF duty l fear we do not have
enough preaching from the pulpit along this
line as we should
| could go on at length, but | have given
you some food for thought in this, my poor
way | trust l nave at least. R. l. CHILDS.

They STAYED Married.

Down in the corner of a recent edition OF
a daily paper appeared news story that was
wonderfully rare 1t told of Ben Turpin'S
vigil at the bedside of his dying wife who
had been an invalid for long time, and
who would accept mnstrations but those
OF her husband The end came with Mr.. Tur-
pin at the bedside being in this respect SIM
liar to thousands of other deaths every day.
Then this line The Turpins were married
in Chicago about Is years ago, and Mrs.
Turpin worked with her husband on the
legitimate stage and later in pictures Eigh-
teen years married and yet they were mo-
ton picture people! 1t is one OF the most
remarkable things encountered in years and
it goes to show that there are exceptions to
nearly all rules. The Turpins proved that
motion picture people could stay married if
they wished to do so. Their married life was
a success. 1t must have BEEN or they would
have been divorced and remarked many times
in IS years.
The time is approaching when newspaper
editors are going to find a quicker interest in
news stories Of this kind. The trained news
paper man knows from his teaching and his
experience that it is the unusual happening
which takes precedence over all other things
as news. 1t may be recalled that a noted
editor reminded his staff that it was not
Important and interesting news merely for a
dog to bite a man, but if man bit a dog
that was to be treated as most unusual and
therefore of vital meaning in the news world.
By the same process of reasoning the divorce
OF moving picture couple is not intensely
interesting as news Things like that are to
be expected, They happen almost daily. But
when couple in the motion picture business
stay married until death separates man and
wife something rare has been discovered. All
honor to Ben Turpin, the comedian, and to
the memory of his wife.

Counties and Cotton.

The official cotton report for October, made
Thursday through the Georgia Cooperative
Cotton Reporting Service, declares that pres
ent indications show that Burke county will
probably lead all counties in the state in the
total production this season, with Carroll,
Bulloch and Laurens about on even basis for
second place Counties producing 10000 or
more bales are Sumter, Terrell, Dodge, Sore
ven, Colquitt Randolph Mitchell and Jeffer
SON"
How the officials making the report reach
ed their conclusions is not known. The fig
ures by the government giving the number
OF bales of cotton ginned up to September
10th, when the bulk OF the crop had been
ginned do not indicate that the forecast is
OF much value. According to this report Ter
rell county, with an area of only $40 square
miles, had ginned 7,554 bales. Carroll, with
1870 square miles, had ginned but 1884 bales.
Bulloch, with approximately three times the
area of Terrell, had gnned 1852 bales, only
sos more than Terrell. Laurens, with 79l
square miles and more than twice the area
of Terrell, had ginned 17,019 bales, or SIS
less than Terrell The report for Sumter,
with 534 square miles, was 1888 bales, or
5,637 less than Terrell. The number OF bales
ginned in Terrell up to last Saturday night
was 23,2OO.
1t can readily be seen that Terrell main
tains her supremacy as Georgia's greatest
cotton growing county, and the equal OF any
in the cotton belt.

A Good Idea.

Barren fields in the rural sections OF Geor-
gia will be made to glisten with covering
of green-a picture for passing tourists-in-
stead of presenting bleak and unattractive
appearance if plans now under way by agrl-
cultural leaders and railroad developers are
carried out. 1t is proposed to sow the fields
along the main highways in cover crop, and
thus give them dress OF green throughout
the winter.
Farmers have been advised to plant hairy
vetch or Triton bur clover. With the last
two crops the farmers obtain the soil build
ing qualities OF legume; that is, taking nj
trogen from the air and putting it in the
roots of the plant. That is the cheapest nj
trogen in the world.
The growing OF these crops also provides
pastures for cattle during the late winter.
Vetch may be plowed under in plenty OF
time to plant corn, and insures increased crop
yields.
1t is a splendid idea to plant cover crops
along the highways. 1t not only will beau
tfy the landscape but will enrich the soil.

Gasoline Taxes.
From the Savannah Press.

Georgia and A other states are endeavor-
ing to pay for roads built primarily for the
of the motorists by laying a tax
on gasoline sales. Illinois, Massachusetts,
New Jersey and New York alone still lack a
gasoline tax Moreover there exists as was
the case in Georgia last year constant ten
dency to increase the amount of the tax.
The present tax rates range from | cent in
North Dakota, Rhode Island and Texas up
to 5 cents in South Carolina where the pres
ent program calls for the paving OF all of
the state roads within period of ten years.
In % states the tax is for 2 cents per gallon,
and in the remaining states it is cents.
In 1910 only four states possessed such a
tax and revenue from it brought in only
$553,9S7 Last year with taxes in 81 states
the revenue has risen to $79734490 This
year it is estimated that the "A states pos
sessng the tax will collect $3.50 906242.
An interesting by-product of the tax sta
tistics is the fact that California leads all OF
the states in the number OF gallons OF gaso-
line consumed. Georgia ranks 18th on the
list. Ohio is second, then come Pennsylva-
MIA, Michigan, Texas Iowa, Missouri, Wis
consin, Minnesota New York and others.
California's record of more than half mill
lion gallons annually gives us some idea as
to the amount required to propel cars during
a years time.
