THE WORLD is ROUND

They say that the world is round,
And yet sometimes think it's square,
So many little hurts we get,
From corners here and there.
But one great truth I've found in life,
While iourneying to rest,
The only folks who really wound,
Are those we love the best.
The man you thoroughly despse,
Can cause you wrath, It's true,
Annoyance in your heart may rise,
At things mere strangers do,
But these are only passing ills,
This rule all lives will prove,
The ranking wound that aches and thrills,
Is dealt by hands we love.
The choicest garb and the sweetest grace,
Are oft to strangers shown,
But the careless men and the frowning face,
Are given to our own,
We flatter those we scarcely know,
And please the fleeing guest,
But deal full many thoughtless blow,
To those we love the best.
But love does not grow on every tree,
Nor do true hearts yearly bloom,
And alas, for those who only see,
That cut across the tomb
And soon or late the fact grows PLAIN
To all through sorrows test,
The only folks who really wound
Are those we love the best.
Selected.

Comnip Out of the Mud

One O fthe chief benefits the farmer derives
from really good roads is that of being aoie t'
move his farm products to market over 'he"l

The farmers crops are his stocks in trade

price is up. he is the gamer IT, because OF oao

Of until after the price has declined, he loses.
In the old days when the roads were gooo
only in good weather, the farmer could 40 III
tle satisfactory maketing. He was forced 10
take a chance on getting his products 10 the
buyer on a rising market.
One decided advantage in good ROADS IS
that thew encourage the use of motor vehicles
bv the farmer effecting a saving in time ana
worry in moving his crops, and in getting his
family to church and children to school.
Thousands of miles of poor roads which act
as feeders for main highways are being maze
practical for modern traffic at minimum OF
expense, by protecting the old base with
water proof wearing surface. Thus farm land
is made available for use, which would other
wise be isolated due to distance from schools
and markets and prohibitive cost of building
standard types of state highway pavements
The modern tractor and road machinery plus
the waterproofing qualities of asphalt are en-
abling hundreds of communities to come out
of the mud.
Good roads are probably next in Importance

The Great Thrill

Two weeks ago, Charles Lindbergh was a
mere youth known only to that narrow circle
of acquaintances out of which the average
man never breaks. Today, he is symbol OF
which the American nation is inordnately
proud-a symbol of that reckless gallantry,
that high-hearted spirit that is often foolhardy
but frequently, as with him, translates itself
into a glorious achievement. This fresh young
nation has achieved much of its vitality and
much of it's glory from such adventures as he.
Where older men took precautions according
to the traditions of aerial navigation, Lind
bergh defied them all. Rain off Long Island,
fog off Newfoundland, a stiff breeze in mid
ocean and lowering weather over England and
France only spurred him on. Defying sleep
and physical comfort of all sorts, and trusting
himself to the mercies of an airplane engine
and tank of gasoline, he has won by that
defiance place in flying's hall of fame. His
achievement deserves to be ranked with Byrd S
airplane flight across the North Pole as the
two most daring exploits of the air.
Lindbergh has all the elements of popular
hero. He will not talk his fame away, because
he is of that reserved North Country stock
that draws its silence from the Northern fast
ness. He is an uncommunicative, monosyla-
bic man. How much we esteem that type, or
how much it appeals to the American magma
tion-because, perhaps the average American
is garrulous-was indicated in the myth that
grew up about man so ordinary as Mr.. Cool
ldge. Lindberghs single-handed flight only
emphasizes the achievement. If America es-
Inmates reserve highly, it also reserves the fic-
tional lone WOLF. Lindbergh's flight would
have been a the safer if there had heen seq
ond man in his plane. Because there was not,
his fame is all the greater. He shares it with
nobody.
When one writes of him and the flight, the
mind refuses to work in its ordinary processes.
The reaction becomes emotional tumble. 1t is
best defined in that spine-chlling thrill that
passed down the American backbone yesterday
evening. Macon Telegraph. - 80

Captain Charles Lindbergh

A tall, lose-iointed raw-boned youngster,
his sheer daring and stark nonchlance made
him the choice oveE the older and probably
better aviators from the very first They had
elaborate equipment flock of mechancians,
complicated plans and elaborate organizations.
Lndbergh had no plans, equipment or organi-
zation than chicken hawk. Not Captain
Lindbergh. He ran his own show. A man and
a compass and bottle of water, sandwich
or two and his own confidence, and he was
on his way to win. And he won.
His face on the front page of a thousand
newspapers has been the magnet for genuine
and devoted interest. His smile, his figure, his
youth, his record his confidence, his very air
plane has won their way into everybody's
heart. He was all of moment, the countrys
kid. God bless him, he might be fool, but he
was gorgeous fool, and everybody loved him.
1t is more than Captain Lindbergh's adven-
ture and triumph: it is the spirit of man un-
covered to reveal hidden beauty and strength
which for all the utilities remains perpetual
hope.

Patriotism

Holidays like Memorial day are commonly
used as times for teaching patriotism. We are
shown the superb example OF the soldiers sac
rifice, and told to display like spirit
But there is no special reason to think that
in the near future we shall be called on Tor
patriotic service of that kind. We are asked
for patriotic service constantly and the way TO
give it is to try our best to make a better coun-
try.
There are many ways to do that Voting at
all primaries and elections is one. Reading
and studying the newspapers to find out what
parties and candidates will give the best SER
vice, is a good way. Sending children to school
lust as long as we possibly can, so they Will
make good citizens, is an excellent way. Obey
ing the laws of the land is good method OF
patriotism. We do not have to go to France
or the Philippines to show patriotism, it can be
manifested just as well right her in Fitzgerald.

NAMES OF BLIND
PERSONS WANTED

The Georgia Association of Work
ers for the blind, in it's work of ad-
vancing the interests of the blind
people of Georgia, has found it neces-
sary to secure the name and address
as nearly as possible of every blind
person in the state.
If any reader of this paper knows
of any person who is blind, or near
ly so, he is requested to communicate
the above information to Mr.. Roy R.
Bradley, Secretary, .546 Boulevard, S.
E. Atlanta, Georgia. Any additional
information as to their color, present
age, age at which sight was lost, edu-
cational advantages, and means of
support of such persons will also be
appreciated.
This matter is of the utmost i'm
portance to the Association, so please
do not fail to write because you think
someelse may have written. Mr..
Bradley would rather have a dozen
letters about one blind person than
to have that person overlooked.

Hoolx-Up
Farm Relief
Legislation


Agriculture's friends in Federal affairs have
evidently adopted the time honored policy that
there is more than one way to skin cat.
News from Washington tells us quite positively
that thoughts for farm relief is by no means
dead issue. In fact it is as much alive as at
the moment it seemed about to become an ac-
tuality this spring
Agricultural leaders in Washington are now
busy searching about for ''hook-up" egisla-
tlon upon which to tack another McNary-
Haugen bill, with the idea of forcing the next
congress and the administration to accept it or
see perhaps their pet BILL what-ever-it-may- be-
so down to defeat
Already leaders of the American Farm Bu-
reau, Federation, The National Grange and the
Farmers National Union have arranged an Oc-
tober meeting in Washington to prepare pro-
gram for farm relief campaign, and have it
ready and waiting for Congress when it con-
venes in December
The "hook-up" may be made with the Missis-
sippi flood legislation which will then come
up and, which at this time, seemingly is assur-
ed OF action. With flood relief and farm re-
hef a Joint issue, backed by the agricultural
bloc in Congress, there is hope of pushing a
McNary-Haugen measure through

reau; L. j. Taber president and Frederick

Killing
Public
Private

In the Snyder murder case there is some
thing more important than horrible story,
with it's sashweight, picture wire, chloroform
and unlimited bootleg whiskey. The strange
thing is the eagerness expressed by many,
women and men, that the convicted woman
and man should, without fail die in the cleo
trct chair. Some apparently consider the ap-
preaching executions as sort of victory for
themselves.
What good will those executions do? They
will add one more horror to horrible crime.
Is it desirable, in the name of Justice that a
woman, screaming and struggling, be strapped
in the electric chair, put to death by combl-
nation Of law and science? How much better
is legal killing in cold blood than private
killing done in the heat of alcohol and bestiali-
ty? Justice must forego killing in the name OF
civilization before it can expect criminals to
give up killing in the name of hatred, cupidity
and vice.

Babies Club

Babies Club
In one Of the poorest districts of
London, the Woman's League of Ser
vice maintains an enterprise called
the Babies Club.
This service provides hot meal
every noon of working days for the
babies of the neighborhood whose
mothers are too busy or too poor to
provide proper nourishment for the
little ones.
Tiny oilcloth-covered tables for the
immaculate dinning room and small
benches are adapted to the two and
five year old patrons. To remove the
stigma of charity a penny is charg-
ed for the substantial two-course
meal OF course this charge is not
pushed and is only to satisfy the scru-
pies of those who wish it.
Volunteer cooks and nurses rotate
in service and grant from the Minis
try of Health helps in the outlay.
