GEORGIA CAPITALISTS
INVESTIGATE FARMS
MR. CALLAWAY TO
HA VE IDEAL FARM
Just what will be the out come of
the tour, which is being made of the
state by the distinguished capitalists
in the interests of the Georgia far
mers, is not known, but from the man
ner with which they have been greet
ed along their route is evidence that
the people have confidence in Mr.
Ansley’s plan and no doubt he will
find a willingness on the part of
most of the people to co-operate with
him.
As explained to a representative of
The Reporter, the party is making a
tour of the state for the purpose of
determining some cencrete plan of
credit extension to the farmers.
In the last few years the question
of “Rural credits” has been the cause
of much discussion in congress apd
indications are that in the near future
advocates of this plan will come to a
realization of their dreams.
Mr. Edwin P. Ansley, of Atlanta,
who is one of the south’s most pro
gressive capitalists, proposes to or
ganize a company with a capitaliza
tion of five million dollars under the
name of the Ansley Investment Com
pany.
This will include five subsidiary
land companies, who will have their
general offices in Atlanta.
Every effort will be made to give
the Georgia farmer “a chance.”
Everything possible will be done to
give him renewed courage and inspire
him with an ambition to do more than
“come out.”
There will be a company of men
to work in harmony with the Southern
Commercial Congress on immigration,
and if possible the labor worry will be
eliminated.
Some of the richest and most prom
inent capitalists in the United
States are giving this idea careful
study now and it is to be hoped that
the time is not far off, when we will
have small and improved farms and
their products will be diversified.
Tiny English Church.
The smallest church in England at
Fairfield, Romney Marsh, was visited
recently by the archbishop of Canter
bury. The building, an ancient one. Is
Isolated In a meadow surrounded by
■water. The six painted box pews were
filled with visitors. The primate
preached from a high pulpit, and bis
bead nearly touched the oak beams.
Out at the old “Ferrell Place,”
which was bought a few years ago
by Mr. Fuller Callaway, will be a
farm operated upon the ideal plan,
as we see it
In all, there are about ninety acres,
and almost every available spot will
be put in cultivation.
There will be alfalfa, cotton, corn,
oats, vegetables, and all kinds of de
sirable farm produce.
Various kinds of grain and truck
are now growing there, but it will
be a year or so before the land will
be reclaimed to that ideal condition of
being a model to other farmers in
this section.
Mr. Callaway will have one of the
mo.st beautiful homes here that can
be foknd in the state.

The seventh annual meeting of the
council of the Protestant Episcopal
church in the Diocese of Atlanta met
the Church of the Incarnation,
West End, Atlanta, Ga., on Wednes
day, May 27, 11114, the first service
being at ten o’clock in the morning
and being a celebration of the Holy
Communion.
This was a most impressive and in
spiring service, and was attended by
all the Clergy of the Diocese, in their
vestments, and by about three hun
dred laymen and women, delegates
to the council and to the Woman’s
Auxiliary. At this service the
Bishop’s annual address was deliver
ed, and immediately after the service
the council met in business session in
the Parish House and the Woman’s
Auxiliary met in the church.
At one o’clock both meetings ad
journed for luncheon, which was de
lightfully served by the ladies of the
parish, and which was most thorough
ly enjoyed by all. At half past two
o’clock the council .net again in busi
ness session, the election of officers,
committtees, delegates, etc., for the
coming year being among the impor
tant business matters taken up. It
is of local interest to note that Rev.
Henry I). Phillips, of LaGrange, was
made a member of the nominating
committee, a member of the com
mittee on Cathedral corporation, i
trustee of the University of the
South, and was elected chairman pro
tempore of the council, which is the
highest honor within the gift of the
council, and goes to show in what
esteem he is held by the church at
lqrge. Mr. Chas. Pearson, of La-
Grange, was made a member of the
hoard of missions.
At four o’clock the council listened
to a most interesting and inspiring
address by Dr. Chas. H. Herty, of
the Diocese of North Carolina, on the
matter of the general clergy relief
fund. Dr. Herty is a Georgian, at
one time a member of this council,
and now professor of Chemistry at
the University of ,/orth Carolina.
At eight o’clock the annual mis
sionary service was held in the church
and stirring missionary addresses
were made by the Bishop and by
several missionaries of the Diocese.
This was a most beautiful and im
pressive service, was one of the most
largely attended meetings of the
council, and was undoubtedly the
source of great inspiration to the
large congregation which crowded the
church.
On Thursday morning the Holy
Communion was celebrated at half
past seven o’clock; morning prayer
was held at half past nine o'clock;
and at ten o’clock the council met in
business session. During this ses
sion Rev. Henry D. Phillips made a
stirring address on missions in gene-
ral and particularly in regard to work
among the cotton mill people of the
Diocese. His address brought out a
great many questions in regard to'
mill conditions, and particularly in
regard to the work now being done
by the LaGrange Settlement, and a
great deal of interest was' manifested.
Resolutions endorsing the Georgia
Sunday school association and urging
all the Sunday schools of the church
to unite with the association, were
enthusiastically passed.
The invitation of St. James Church,
Marietta, for the next meeting of the
council, May, 1915, to be held there,
was accepted, and the invitation of
LaGrange for the next conference,
October, 1914, was accepted. The
council is the legislative body of the
church and meets once a year, in May,
for business. The- conference is an
adjourned meeting of the council and
meets each fall, not for business, but
solely for conference and discussion,
and is a meeting of a more spiritual
atmosphere than is the council. The
conference is usually not so well at
tended as is the council, but there is
a great interest throughout the Dio
cese in the work being done at the
LaGrange Settlement, and it is hoped
and expected that the conference at
LaGrange this fall will be very large
ly attended.
At six o’clock the council and la
dies were most delightfully entertain
ed at the home of the Bishop, and at
half past eight the council met for
a short business session, winding up
all the routine business and adjourn
ing to meet in conference in La-
Grange in the early fall.

RESOLUTIONS PASSED.
Whereas, the Protestant Episcopal
church stands always for Unity of
all Christians, and wishes to foster
and encourage every movement tend
itig towards Christian Unity; and,
Whereas, any movement that brings
Christian people of different shades
of belief into intimate association for
the discussion and execution of
Christian work by giving each an un
derstanding of the other’s view point,
tends towards Chrrstian Unity, there
fore he it resolved,
1st. That this Council recognize in
the Georgia Sunduy School Associa
tion a great power for good, tending
towards better Christian education
and towards a better mutual under
standing of each other among Chris
tian people.
2nd. That this Council heartily
endorses the work being done by the
Georgia Sunday School Association
and urges the Sunday School of this
church to enter into the spirit of this
movement heartily and totally them
selves with the Georgia Sunday
School Association.
3rd. That it is the sense of this
meeting that our Sunday School
Commission will do well to co-operate
with the Georgia Sunday School As
sociation particularly in an effort to
establish adequate Sunday School
teachers training classes and to fos
ter a spirit of co-operation and mu
tual help among all Christian work-

Polishing Metals.
Brass that is badly stained can best
be cleaned with one of the regular
brass pastes, it can then be polished
with a flannel and a little whiting If
it was In an especially bad condition
Nickel can be cleaned with whiting
and vinegar If It Is too badly stained
to be cleaned with hot water, which
really ought to keep nickel In good
condition. Zinc can best be cleaned
with turpentine. Auy amount of rub
bing with the usual cleansing powders
may be unavailing in the case of zinc,
but turpentine Is effective.

-MASTIC PAINT-
A Lesson in Real Economy
Take two houses—both alike—
Spend about $50 to MASTIC-PAINT one
Let the other go unpainted—
Offer them both for sale—
You’ll wonder why the unpaintrd house finds no buyer at
even $500 less than the MASTIC-PAINTED house will bring.
At the beginning both houses represented equal value.
The Lesion: A few gallons of MASTIC PAINT
properly applied at the right time greatly increases the value
of your property.
Your building needs painting Right Now, hut don t use keg-
lead or hand-mixed paints. It may be cheaper at the start, but
is costly and unsatisfactory in the end.
For Real Economy use MASTIC PAINT
