FORT VALLEY. GA.. THURSDAY, DECEMBER 24, 1925. in its issue of November the twenty first devotes to Georgia. It is at once a portrayal and an in terpretation of which every Georgian will be heartily appreciative and in which every American should be in¬ terested. The material resources of the commonwealth are set forth with keen understanding of economic values; its scenic beauty is pictured by pen and camera with rare artis¬ try; and its historic background (so often over-looked by the casual re¬ porter) is given just emphasis. Be¬ yond these, however, and above them is the Monitor’s reflection of the very spirit of Georgia, as it was in a ro mantic yesterday and is now in its forward reach for a greater tomor row. The test of a portraitist is his insight into the sitter’s character and soul, and his success in these into line and color. By the test the Monitor’s Georgia supplement is of its kind a masterpiece. . • A joyous state in which to live and a promising state in which to do business”— so our New England contemporary us in its editorial columns, and orously adds: "The state is growing, progressing in all that stitutes true progress. Its side, no longer given over to the cul tivation of cotton alone, presents a smiling succession of profitable crops. The chimneys of its manufacturing towns pierce the sky on every hand. Atlanta presents a spectacle of bus i n ess activity and financial stability Clopine Clippings By DON QUIXOTE The many friends of Mrs. W. H.

Mr. Robert Tuggle who is connected with the Ellis Motor Co. in Macon as unexcelled among the many prosper ous cities of twentieth-century Amer iea. With a population overwhelming ly Anglo-Saxon in character, and with natural advantages and resources second to none, Georgia faces the fu ture with calm confidence, even as she points to her past 1 serene pride.” From the time o ty county’s pioneers at old Midv.. h their wealth of Pilgrom tradit.u.is, on to this year of grace Massachusetts and Its neighboring regions have sent us a host of welcome visitors, notwith¬ standing that some who came in the mid-eighteen-sixties were, as Grady I remarked, too careless with fire. The first president of our state university | was amongst those who came thence,' and amongst them are numbered 1 many a valued'Georgia of today. But of all who have taken the southward , trail that winds through Rabun Gap, none ever could have been more warmly welcome than the Monitor with its gracious and goodly gift.— : Atlanta Journal, ,, % ; | * 11 ♦ | | - • ., A / I i /' I A I • ■ - • ► « • •* • ► f • r H * • • / i\ m t • * As " < > To Our Customers • i And Friends ^ :: i 4* ■ > W e have had a very satisfac¬ • • * • < • tory business this year — 1925 , • • • ■ < • and want you to know that ire • , ■ i deeply appreciate your patron¬ • • age which has been the means of • • ■ making the year a success for US. • .. ■ W ishing Merry Christina^ * you a and Prosperous New Year — < ■ • > Fort Valley Lumber Co. \ Fort Valley, Georgia *5 * Ki /,* • ■ >♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ < ♦♦♦♦♦■ !
