Thursday, Feb. 21, 1918.
The Dutch weather prophet says
that this will be the earliest spring
the South has experienced in 51
years. The Dutch prophet is a prognosticator
of no mean proportions.
He predicted several weeks ago that
a cold spell would arrive on the 16th,
and sure enough it came on time. We
trust that his prediction about spring
will be equally as accurate.
The national food administration
has evolved a plan whereby a farmer
may procure flour without the necessity
of purchasing corn meal or other
flour substitutes. - Instead of purchasing
meal, which he can easily
secure by carrying his own corn to
the mill, he will only have to secure
a certificate from his miller stating
that he has h^.d so much corn ground
into meal. He may take this certi\
ficate to his grocer, and upon presentation
is entitled to purchase an
equal weight of flour, not, however,
in excess of a half-barrel. This is a
wise amendment to the food regulations,
as it would be quite silly to
make a farmer, who has a barn?or
maybe several barns-?filled with the
best corn in the world, buy that of
which he has a plentiful supply. 9
Things have not gone so well after
all with the Germans in Russia. It
is just about as well for the rest of the
world" that Russia does not happen
to have any real statesmen at the
present time in power; for if Trot\
zky, Lenine, et al., had any diplo/
matic sense they would have known
, that Germany would not consent to
any such arrangement as they presumed
and started to carry out.
They said they would not sign peace
formally, but would just quit fight.
ing. But Germany says she shall
either absolutely make peace of keep
\ on- ,?ghting. wen, neie? uuym6
that .they keep right on jawing
about it. Russia is done for any
% way, but if she keeps on hanging
fire it will give the Germans something
else than removing her armies
out of Russia to think about.
The Herald has Secured the exclusive
rights in this territory for
' the publication of Sergeant Arthur j
Guy Empey s famous book "Over the
Top." Publication in installments of
this intensely interesting narrative
will start in the near future. It is
acknowledged to be the most sensational
series yet written about the
present war. Sergeant Empey
served for two years at the front
until he' was put put of commission
leuc even is win ue uu
gramme. We recognize that short
? ? terms and still shorter salaries seriously
handicap the best efforts of
| our rural teachers, but join in this
our first demonstration; better things
will come bye and bye. Yours for
better educational conditions,

Due to the Clock.

Mother (to Frank)?How is it that
you are late home nearly every afternoon?
* _ - , i
% Frank?Well no wonder; we've got
such a big clock in our school.
Mother?Why, what has the clock
to do with it?
Frank?'Cause it's so big it takes
the hands an awful long while to get
round it. If we had a clock like
papa's little round one I'd get home a
great deal quicker.?Youth's Companion.
According to a report by the
American consul at Geneva, Swiss

' $170; cows, $260; calves,$180;
young pigs, $14; sheep, $14; fat

Abduction is Charged.
I
John Craven, a white man. wasj
arrested in Bamberg last week on!
a charge of abduction. The charge j
was preferred by the authorities of j
Milldn, Ga., who asked for the!
arrest, which was made by Chief of |
Police W. G. Kirkland. Craven was
lodged in the county jail, awaiting j
the arrival of the Millen authorities!
to carry him back to Georgia forj
trial.
It is stated that Craven is charged j
with having deserted his wife and i
children and the* abduction of a
young girl. The authorities here
were told that Craven was thought to

of the girl who is alleged to have
been abducted by Craven is not
known. The officers here have no
information as to the young woman
being in this city.
The officers here were notified that
the sheriff or his representative from
Millen would arrive in the city on
Saturday to take the man back to
Millen, but they were later notified
that extradition papers had been applied
for, and as soon as they were
issued, the man would be taken to
Millen for trial. In the meantime
Craven is held in the county jail.
Except that a fanciful title has j
been substituted for the nobleman's

comes in a letter from England, is
