Now Fort Valley Beautiful, what *re you going to do with that old ■water tower space? We arc now approaching the time •of starting all over again to land at the same place, and the road will be crowded. Let’s reverse the order of things 1or Christmas and New Year. Then maybe we can have each instead of <destrogfcg both. We are now observing with j concern to see if Fort Valley is going to let a certain noble Public Spirit work himself to death. -Your ■guess will be received without comment at this particular time. .. _— I Tom Anthoine and Santa Claus evi dently went into partnership, judg¬ ing by the time at which the old water tower is actually being brought down.

David Albert Howard, pastor Rev. of the First Baptist church, was made chairman of the committee on nomi nations by the Georgia Baptist Con vention in Savannah last. week. We can’t help saying again that Fort Val¬ ley is wonderfully well blessed all the way around in preachers. Our-subscribers will join us in af¬ fectionate congratulations to W. C ' Carter, our good friend whose poems add so much interest and inspiration to the columns of The Leader-Tri¬ bune each week, who was eighty-one bright, fruitful years of age on Fri¬ day, December 11th. Editor C. E. Benns is being con¬ gratulated heartily upon the fiftieth birthday of his excellent paper, the Butler Herald, on Thanksgiving day. Butler and Taylor county have a right to be mighty thankful for Benns’ splendid public service, year in and year out, through such a good news¬ paper that was established by the present editor’s father fifty years ago and has remained in the family ever since. Josephus Camp has taken over the Dublin Messenger from Editor Kit trell and now the people of Dublin ■well may be congratulated. Josephus Camp has been distinguished as an able Georgia newspaper publisher for many years. Of recent years he has held the office of state printer by ap¬ pointment of Governor Walker. Jose¬ phus Camp undoubtedly will do much to accelerate the pulse of progress in the already hustling city of “Dublin' all the time. Santa Claus brings Rev. T. H. Thomson to the Methodist church for another year, Judge A. C.
