And yet, Georgia i has all Florida can possibly offer a j comfort-seeking humanity, and more, j Indeed, there is but one Georgia in I all this great universe. No one of the great West states can claim the oneness Georgia can; everyone of them has a duplicate somewhere. Florida is not alone, in all its won ders. If there was one half the human excitement about Georgia there is about Florida this state wouldn’t have a vacant acre, not a vacant lot or farm. .. Florida is a semi-tropical country, am * the same semi-tropical scenery ! found in Florida is to be found in Georgia. Down in Florida they figure i that the real ‘Florida’ starts about Orlando and runs down to the end of the peninsular. They do not count from Orlando up their ‘Florida.’ That upper part of the state is, in a way, rather looked upon as an extension of Georgia. The great development; the grand rush for million dollar homes; for water-frontage estates and all that kind of thing is below Orlando. “Georgia has more of what those people are trying to find in Florida than Florida itself has. In South Georgia oranges grow as well as they do grown in hlorida; the apples in Florida North Georgia can’t grow, are J \ and tween in the all the intervening and the space be-j oranges apples Georgia grows everything else. ! I do not believe there is ever coming any ‘big break’ in Florida, Florida as it is today is there to stay. Hundreds of millions are being invested in improvements, in develop ments, and that investment makes sure there is no danger of any going I backward. The investment itself sets up the necessity that Florida of today and tomorrow stick. They have their great highways, people are ] building costly homes, wonderful. groves are being cultivated, and I , those things can’t be taken away. They have got to stay there for somebody, and somebody has got to j have and to keep them. There may be a pause or a halt may be called by I some circumstance, but Florida de veloped is a permanency. „ Tf It is . not . going . f to k be i because the state becomes overpeopled that Geor gia will catch the ’back wash.’ Oh, of course some people who go down there and don’t find just what they. Children To Have Big Day At The Southeastern Fair I i Special Features and Program Will Be Arranged for Children Monday, October 12—A Gala Occasion. Atlanta, Ga.—Children’s Day at the tenth annual Southeastern Fair In At¬ lanta will be observed Monday.

It is because what Georgia has to offer seeking humanity is bet¬ ter and there is more of it. “I have been into every state in the United States, and into every part of every state. I have travelled in my capacity a little more than a million, six hundred thousand miles in this country of ours, and in my travels have had occasion to make a minute study of every state 1 have been in. No other state in all these United tSates has everything for the comfort and happiness of man kind like Georgia. We have the semi-tropical scene ry, the semi-tropical climate, the wonderful water-frontage—all that Florida has, and just a little better. Georgia’s wonderful east coast af fords those things just as Florida does, and it is not as hot; just a lit tie cooler in the winter time, never too cold. Nowhere in Florida is there more beautiful handiwork c f nature than the islands off the coast of Georgia. Nowhere can Jekyl and Cumberland and the other islands off this coast be bested. And with this state, all that wonderful country; the semi-trepieal section where the great gray moss hangs like nature cur tains from the trees; where the cli matic conditions are like nowhere else in the whole country; where there are the beach attractions, the fishing and boating possibilities; the* scope for development of mag nificent homes—all this great country j 0 f Georgia’s is backed by a truly wonderful agricultural stretch of land—land where was grown years ago the finest rice in the world; the greatest sea-island cotton producing part of the universe, where the fruits grow-in abundance as they can grow nowhere else. An agricultural country which has no superior any where in America. ‘Nothing in Florida or California is more exclusive than Jekyl; few spots are to be found more beautiful than the country in the vicinity of Cumberland. Between St. Mary’s and i Savannah is probably the orettiest ! stretch of nature's beauty in all this ! ! whole country, and this thought to my mind the fact that i' just been informed Henry Ford) changed his mind about building] great Southern home. He has a place near Savannah, and ; S ‘ nStea d ° f g ° ing t0 , For a reason? , Certainly for reason. He has found that he can in South Georgia all the pleasure, the comfort, all the beauty he can in Florida and more. He will cents. That applies to the private schools, colleges and every branch of learning In the State. The program for Children's Day looms as one of the most Interesting of the entire Fair, and every effort will be made to make It a gala occa¬ sion for the young folkB, one long to be remembered In the minds of Geor gia students. In addition to the regular exhibits, the band concerts, the great Midway attractions, the Grand Circuit harness racing and other amusements, there will be a monster fireworks program across the lake from the grandstand at 9 o'clock. Monday night will be the first night for the fireworks pro¬ gram. and an unusually good showing Is being planned. The fireworks will be over In plenty of time for the kid¬ dles to get home early, if necessary. Every railroad leading Into Atlanta will put on greatly reduced rates for , the Fair in October, and there will be . special day rates along with another special excursion rate for more than one day. ■ get those things in temperate meas ure, without extremes either way, and with them other desires that are not to be found in Florida, | “Here's a thought of Georgia ( worthy of comparison with either Florida or California: In this state is] 1 to be found the semi-tropical scenery, the climate, the nature beauty of a semi-tropical country, and in the same state the mountains with their > wilderness of mountain beauty and mountain climate. The lowlands and water front on one side, the moun tain peaks—not just hills—and for ests on the other. Alabama has a lit tie of it as Georgia has; there is , just a touch of it in lower South Car¬ olina as Georgia has, but no other ] everything state offers that to Georgia the world’s does. peoples Miss issippi has not what Georgia has, but she has what Louisiana affords. * So on the comparisons might be ear r ‘ e d out. Not one of the great t\es tern states offers everything like Georgia does, nor can California of fer 8 people everything life could de sire as Georgia can. “Get the backwash from Florida ? j Yes, I would say Georgia will get it; already is beginning to get it; but what Georgia really is going to get, and would get much more of did this great moving human stream which is flowing Southward know of what j Georgia has for them, is the settie ment in Georgia of thousands of those people because Georgia is almost the Utopia they are looking for.” - cut?
