TO THE PUBLIC. THE BANNER solicits news from Its friends In the city, but we cannot receive announce- ments of meetings and similar notices over the telephone. We ask our friends to kindly write all »uch notices and mall them to the editor of The Banner, or send to the office by messenger.

All communications for publication MU5T be accompanied by the real name of tba writer. The writer's name will be withheld when the request Is made, bat the editor must know from whom each communication comae. There will be no deviations from these rules In the All roads are leading to Athens now What about dosing the dispensary this week ? Shall we observe Christmas in Athens as Christians or barbarians? Our old friend, the Congressional Record, shows np daily now. Hare yon noticed the faot that The "Banner is growing right along with Athens? The people of Athens were loud in their praises yesterday of The Banner’s trade edition. More bntlding will be done in Athens daring the coming year than any other city in Georgia twice the size of this City. The esteem.* Sparta umnaeute truly ■aye he is a dangerous man who ft els rich while he is disbursing the people’s money. AB0U1 THE FAIR. The sum of #5,00 has been subscribed toward the capital stock of the North- east Georgia Fair Association and #4,500 more is needed to complete the capital stock of #10,000 The subscribers are made np of the best and most enterpris ing business men of Athens. They are men who see the great need for an agri cultural fair and men who are ready at all times to put np their money when an enterprise of thiB kind is needed to keep Athens abreast with the best cities of Georgia. In the news columns of this issue of Che Banner will be found a letter from a prominent planter in Spalding county, engaged in agricultural pnrsnits at the Georgia State Experiment Station a few miles north of Griffin. This letter seeks information as to premiums to be offered Dy our fair for county agricultural ex hibits, and tho writer says a creditable exhibit will come from Spalding county if the farmers of that county aro given time in which to collect such an exhibit. This letter suggests two things and the one not plainer than the other It suggests first, that if the people of Athens are to undertake an agricultural fair next year they must get to work on the enterprise at once and let the people of the state know, mouths in adtance, just what we are going to have and what kind of inducements we are going to offer exhibitors and visitors to come to this city and participate in our fair It suggests second, that if we have tue fair here next year it will put this city in close touch with people from tetr:- tory not now claimed or invaded by tin bnsiness men of Athens. Both of these are important points aud each is worthy of the consideration of our business men. The Banner sincerely hopes that no unnecessary delay will be met with from this time on in the organization of our plans to have a great agricultural fair in Athens next fall. The import ance of our city and the enterprise of onr business men demand that we cut loose from the carnival and street fairs and having something more substantial. The Banner puts the proposition up to the people. MAKE XMAS MONEY COUNT. » Those items we have in our lines of holiday goods are sensible, pleasing ones; the kind that give full returns in use fulness and enjoyment for every cent of cost.

An exchange says the light in 1904 is going to be between the people and the corporations and that many of the peo ple are going to vote against themselves. The summer school fond is growing little by little every few days. Subscrip tions amounting to more than #100 were voluntarily made during the past week. Inquiries Indicate that the people of Middle and North Georgia are looking to Athens to furnish a big agricultural fair next year. Shall we disappoint them? The movement to purchase a silver service for the battleship Georgia, in augurated by Miss Louise OuBose, of this city, under authority of Governor Terrell, should be enoonraged by every oltlzen of this state. The Banner wants to see an end pnt to professional begging in Athena. We should organize onr charities and pnt the fnnds each month in the hands of the good ladies at the head of Bessie Mell Industrial Home. Perusal of the trade edition issued by The Banner yesterday will show that Athena has grown very rapidly the past year and that the outlook for rapid growth for the ooming twelve months la better than any other oity In Georgia can claim. An even thonsand dollars waa added to the subscription liat of the Northeast Georgia Agricultural Fair Association yesterday. The people all over the state are beginning to ask for premium lists and we should have them ready for distribution early In the spring.
