The Thomasville Times Enterprise contains local humor and editorials. It notes changes in politics and public opinion, urging readers to support Louis Moore for governor and to vote in the state primary. It mentions Thomas County voter participation and local commentary on tariffs and prohibition.
Georgia political observers warn the gubernatorial race remains unsettled with multiple candidates gaining or losing momentum. Rivers leads in south Georgia sentiment, Russell attracts backing and possible alliances, Holder touts a steady road program, Carswell appears from the shadows, and Perry lingers though viewed as unlikely.
A visiting Georgia farmer notes Thomas County has shifted from twenty thousand bales of cotton to about five thousand. Diversification into melons, peanuts, corn, oats, truck crops, and berries stabilizes the economy. Locals embrace broader farming, reducing total dependence on cotton and enhancing independence and profitability.
A critique notes six thousand speakeasies in Chicago and accuses officials of lax enforcement. It condemns wet supporters who profit from liquor and oppose prohibition, blaming state and city laxity for ongoing lawlessness and bootlegger activity.
The Dothan Eagle voices a biting critique of Charlie McCall's campaign tactics using amplified stunts and a long list of insulting adjectives. The editorial also riffs on boxing tangents, Ramsey Simmons retirement, and consumer savings comments within a broad political satire.
The column reflects on monarchy and public service, noting that unselfish effort is often underappreciated and that expectations may misalign with outcomes. It jokes about Lindberghs, Senator Glass, and a playful line about timing to do good, while tipping to light social observations and fishing remarks.
Practical guidance for bystanders and rescuers. Do not panic ask others for help throw a floating object if on shore or use a boat swim out only to assist, keep the victim calm, grip by hair or collar to bring him face up, monitor breathing, and apply artificial respiration if needed. A rescuer often heals faster than the victim.
