HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO ALL. - | It has always been our pleasure I be able to truthfully claim for Thom- asviiie the most generous and noblest of people. It is needless to state that many personal, as well as general ex periences point the way unerringly to the conclusion that nowhere are i>* pie as line, as generous and as whole- souled as they are right here in ThomasvlUe. This opinion is more than verified in the spirit that is manifested throughout the city in caring for the poor at Christmas and in providing clothing and food in such abundance at this season of the year. It proves that the hearts are right and that throughout the personnel of our citi zenship there grows and lives a spark of the divine love that shone so brightly many years ago in the Hills of Nazareth, that led the Shepherds to sing a Joy.ul anthem of peace and irought from foreign lands wise men ■o seek that which would bring Joy t refrain from expressing ■ sin: iville r r find f » Joy. liapplm The wife of the circus man, who murdered, has been freed of the crime, 5,6 ab,< of murder. in this glad season. To those, who have felt the touch of sad ness there is healing beyond earthly comparison in the worldly life that was lived two thousand years ago. To those whose hearts arc heavy with burdens of a material kind, there is surcease in the consciousness of hav ing done your duty. To those whose skies arc unclouded and whose lives are filled with a generous abundance of love and friendship, the day can be sanctified and their Joy empha sized in a realization of all that this day was intended to be. Our wish Is that you may feel that which you need most, that you may to face the future with a con- j fldent hope that Christmas has I bronght joy to the world end the peace iuc *|ihat passeth all understanding.

Christmas is very happy time for ou all, because you know you are ;o!ng to have a visit from Santa Claus with all that he can bring you, toys that you have longed for, fruits ,nd candy that you want, and a lot of other things that old Santa knows you will like. There are a hundred little boys and girls just about your age in or near Thomasville that haven’t any hope that Santa will visit them. They don't toys and things because they haven't enough to eat, and their lit tle bodies are cold and their minds t think of anything but that. Did all know that these little children b so near to you. and yet so far 9 ail the things ypu so love on Christmas? We think you did. for right near i now Is a great big pile of Christ as stockings, heaps and heaps of them, all filled with the nicest things that any little child could want. May be you or your mother helped Santa Claus fill those stockings because you anted those little ones to have some thing. too, to know that It was Christ- Just think how glad the poor little fellows are going to be when they see ?body. drive up to their door and leave a stocking that Santa Claus wanted them to have, how their little are going to light up, how their little bodies, cold and thinly clad, will thrill when they know also that with those stockings there will be a big isket of good things to eat and some arm clothes. "Tien you are enjoying your Christ as. remember those little ones, and •el how good and how happy it Is • have been one who gave that much Joy. You can't ever know what they when they get those stockings, le happiness yon could ever have rolled Into one minute would be about what they will get. And If any o( your have filled one of them, you will get back a lot more than you gave, for it waa the love of God in you that gave It, love for the poor and the needy, a feeling that you will always be glad you have, for It came from Heaven. And we are thank ing you for them, and we hope that all or the little ones that get them will some day be like you all are. not ’’•ingry and cold and without Claus, and will know that you thought of them. A LIFE OF SERVICE. Samuel H. Humph Is dead. Tho prosaic item in the newspaper con veyed no special meaning to man/ people, who never knew Mr. Humph or heard his name perhaps. Yet *.be item was made intensely lnt>rnstln? by a statement that he was the La ther of the peach industry ln Georgia. From an humble beginning, he made the great peach Industry in middle Georgia get tta start. -Mr. Humph may be dead, but his fursightedness and his ability con spired to create a condition that will exist long after he la gone aud will bring in great profits to the people of his section. Like all men who work, he won. Hla Idea took, because he tlemontlntej Its practicability and put It Into practice with profit His xample was taken up and followed and from the Initial shipment of a few crates of peaches he not only propagated two of the world ramous brands of Georgia peaches, but he made the industry pay. When he first started he was greet ed with sneers and dlscouragemen.s. But he did not falter, he was firm ln his conviction and he had the cour age and the ability to make it go. El- berta peaches and Georgia Belles are known throughout tho world. They would never have been had not Mr. Humph had a vision early in life of the possibllltiea of this industry and pnt forth intelligent efforts to carry his vision into actuality. The Ceor- Ela peach is intensely valuable to the state. It is but a tribute to the worth and he vision of one man, and his passing takes away on* to whom th* stats owss a debt of gratitude and ap preciation. The newspapers that are taxed more than other publishers, tor mailing privileges, are also expected to far* nlsh all the advertlslag th* govern* meat waats. Just to show there Is bo hard feeling. TODAY’S ISSUE MANIFESTATION OF SPLENDID SPIRIT. Thla Is a dlstlnjtlv* and unusual edition of the Times-Enterprlse. Heretofore there has been a very de cided increase ln advertising during the Christmas season and this year wes no exception. But now that the shopping Is over and everything is practically bought that will be used for the Christmas season, the mer chants and manufacturers of Thom asvllle are using a considerable amount of space for the sole purpose of trying to express their appreciation and gratitude for their business dur ing the year, and to wish every per* n Thomasvllle a very happy and Joyoua Christmas. We are particularly proud of the spirit, which these firms have dis played and we feel that they are ac tuated by the most worthy and com mendable motives. They hare bid for business while the season was at its height, but now that it Is o they ore using the same amount sjtace, or more, for the sole purpose of showing the people of this city that they are appreciative and have good wishes for the entire town and Its people. Read this issue and be assured that there are many advertisements In the Christmas Issue of the Tlmes-Enter- prlse that carry a good wish for yi for every single reader of the paper from the people, who have helpe make Thomasvllle what it ia today, a splendid, fine and generous people.

BREVITY KILLED THE MULES An instructor In short story writ ing. drilling his class ln selection and compression of details, illustrated his lecture with this story: Two farmers, who were noted for their brevity of speech met one morn ing on the village road. They both drew rein: ’’Mornin’, Zeb.“ “Morning’. Hank.” “What did you give yer hoss when he was sick ” “Turp’ntlne.” “Tiirp’ntlne?” “Yep.” “Git-ap.” •Glt-ap.” That was all. Next morning they met again. “Mornin’, Zeb.” “Mornin*, Hank.” “What did yon say you gave yer hoss when be was sick?” ’’Turp’ntlne.” “Turp’ntlne V “Tap.” “Killed mine.” “Mine, too.” ”OIt-ap.” “Olt-sp.” It Is stay enough to wish somebody a Happy Christmas, and It Is e lot nicer to make someone have It, as the many have done who brought ia tho stockings tor th* poor little children.
