We do not attempt an *»» / the gifts and graces of her Christian character. To do so be too difficult a task. For there wa in her sweet and gracious ity the mingled beauty of many 1 ues.

Give Young Georgians Places and Opportunities In Georgia to Use Their Brains and Talents, Urges Charles J. Haden, and Economist While the movement to utilize raw materials for finished products manufactured in Georgia is gathering momentum, it would he well that con slderatlon be given the retention of one of the State’s greatest resources— her young men and young women—in the opinion of Charles J. Haden, prominent lawyer and developer of Georgia, head of the commission to eradicate adult illiteracy and moving spirit in several other expansion ac¬ tivities. “Every year Georgia is turning out well-equipped young men and young women who are being lost to the State liecauso we do not give them equal opportunities for advancement in this State with the opportunities they can find In some of the States of the East and Middle West.” Mr. Haden de¬ clared. “Recently I read several articles tell¬ ing of what. Georgia men are doing in New York and of what men and wom¬ en of Georgia are accomplishing in various Industrial and business lines and all of them were engaged in oth¬ er States than in Georgia. "Now we have produced many bright young men and bright young women who will help shape the destinies of the business, political and civic life of our country. The thing for us to do is to keep these developers in Georgia or at least keep a large portion of them here. MUST HAVE CHANCE HERE. To do this we must provide oppor¬ tunities for them to carry on their life work on the same scale here that they can in other States. We must use these brains for the development of Georgia instead of for the development and advancement of our rival States. Thore Is no limit to the expansion ahead of Georgia If the proper people are put behind the big movements. We have the young people of brains and Imagination, of enthusiasm and en¬ ergy and we are making no concerted effort to keep them here or even to see what ambitions they have or what lines of work they are seeking. Every year the big technical mills of the East take away a large mini her of the graduates of some of our leading in¬ stitutions. We pay all the expenses of fitting these young people for their life work and then make no suffi¬ cient effort to give them adequate op¬ portunity to do their work in their native State. “The movement to build more facto¬ ries In Georgia, to utilize GeoYgia raw materials in Georgia factories and to stimulate manufacturing of all kinds is one that will bring many wonderful re¬ sults for this State. But one of the outstanding results, one of the most Legal Advertisements SALE OF LAND Georgia, Peach County. By virtue of the Power of Sale in a Security Deed from T. M. Anthoine to E. L. Fountain, dated February 14, 1918, and recorded in Book 24, folio 46 l Jy» Clerk’s Office, Houston Superior Court, and transferred by E. L. F’ountain to Paul Stallworth on the day of December. 1923, and transferred by Paul Stallworth on the 25 day of April 1924, to Jones Motor Company, the undersigned will on the third Tuesday in April 1925, before the courthouse door in said County, sell at public outcry, within the legal hours of sale to the highest valuable result* will be that these fac. ' torles, mills and plants will afford j „ laceH where onr young mt . n 0 f tech are given an opportun j(y tQ carve ou| 8uccett f u i careers in their native Stale. ‘■Our big manufacturing plants now in operation are showing every year much interest in the young men. and women who are graduated from our institutions, and I have yet to learn where any of these young men have failed to make good. Doubling and tripling the number of industries in Georgia means simply the doubling and tripling of opportunities for the future big men and women of this Slate. This broadening of scope will mean that more of our young js-ople will remain here and will use their tal¬ ents for their own State instead of devoting the best, efforts of their lives toward the upbuilding of other States, MOVEMENT IS NOT SELFISH. “There is nothing selfish in this move. Other States am working ail the time to keep their young people at home and are offering them first chance at the opportunities. This nat¬ urally limits the number who would come to Georgia, hence, in self-protec tion, if for no other reason, we should strive to keep as many of our young people In Georgia as possible. “Aside from the industrial field, we have the greatest agricultural oppor tunities in the South, we have as much valuable land undeveloped as any Southern State, anil we can find places in farm activities for the graduates of all the Southern agricultural colleges combined. Yet on examination we find G eorgia men, educated in Georgia in sfittitlons at work in agricultural ex tension and educational work in all the other Southern States and in man States of the North. If we could con eentrate tills powerful force on our ag¬ ricultural problems, it would not tu¬ bing until ail the dreams of diversified farming, stock raising, packing plants, tobacco culture, orchard management dairying and kindred lines would come true many fold. “Our leaders in educational, irnius trial, agricultural and political thought should give this matter serious at tention,” Mr. Haden concluded. “It is one of the bedrocks of future progress because a brainy Georgian, working in Georgia, familiar with Georgia conili tions, is equal to at least two brainy people from other States who do not understand our methods and traditions and who would have to waste several years In becoming localized. Keep Georgia brains In Georgia and it won ! be long until the old State will hum In progress In all lines.” bidder for cash, the following des¬ cribed property: That lot in the City of Fort Valley, Georgia, fronting east 60 feet on Anderson Avenue and running back 146 feet to 10 foot alley.
