The Vienna News reviews Georgia legislative adjournment, debates over income tax and near beer, and calls for publishing county commissioner proceedings. It notes Alabama’s tax amendment adoption, critiques on school funding, and urges Foley's Kidney Remedy for kidney issues.
The Moultrie Cotton Mills is the key unit, employing 200 workers, consuming 2500 bales yearly, and producing six million yards of sheetings with an 8 percent dividend. Moultrie also houses four lumber firms, cabinet works, cooperage, ice and bottling plants, a cotton compress, fertilizer plant, cigar factory, foundry, and machine works. The piece argues Vienna should attract similar manufacturing to spur growth and halts delays in pursuing such enterprises.
The piece notes opponents of prohibition pivot to a near beer tax and warns of higher prices and possible liquor-related issues. It references pro prohibition supporters led by representative Alexander and critiques from the Moultrie Observer. The ad mentions Foley’s Kidney Remedy and local ads for fruit cans and jar rubbers in Pinehurst Georgia.
The speaker laments needing a faithful mourner beside the grave. They ask who will watch over them at death and send a single farewell tear. They crave memory to ease their loneliness and fear, wishing a devoted heart would keep vigil beyond the final sleep.
A collection of terse maxims on effort, envy, responsibility, and parental guidance. The text urges doing one’s best, warns against excuses for loved ones, notes dangers in moral currents, and ends mid thought urging parents to emulate birds in pushing their offspring.
A nostalgic piece uses humor about temperance, aging footwear, hog prices, worms for bait, and a wistful farmer recalling rye yields. It closes with a nod to fruit jars and the Vienna Hardware Co. as a practical detail.
