Miss Annie Carlton entertained with bridge yesterday morning, her guests being the membersjjf the Young I. dies’ Bridge Club. " The prize, a veil pin, was won by Miss Mattie Wilson DuBose.• the worst—result is that we compel others to pay the price of our neglect. The tired, worn-out shopper, vainly searching for something that She can find at a price within her means, meets the more tired, worn-out clerk who is wondering it closing time will never come. Many of the stores even in the smaller cities—all of them in the larger cities—require clerks to stand up while on duty. If yon think that standing up from 8 a. m. until 12 p. m. Is pleasant work, or even pro fitable work from the standpoint of health, it is to be -oped that you will have opportunity to put your theory to practical test some time before the 1908 holidays. There Is nothing pleas ant or profitable about It. And, what Is more, it Is utterly unnecessary that clerks should be required to so torture themselves. Belated shopping causes the trouble. The ^remedy lies with the shoppers. What are you going to do about it?—National Dally. Miss AUeen Hunter Is spending sev eral months In Miami.

Every man, woman and child whom this plea reaches has done or will do bet ween now and Christmas a certain mount of holiday buying. Many of them will consult their own pleasure in the matter and will buy when It suits their convenience. Many of those who reside- In the country will put off sending in their orders by mail until, at the last moment, they find that they are compelled to "take time’’ from other work “Tor a trip to the city if they expect to give any presents. The idea that they might have "taken time” a little earlier will perhaps not occur to them until they are forced to activity. Those who reside In the city are likely to be even greater offenders than residents of*the country dis tricts. One thing after another will arise, until only a few' days remain in which to purchas^&ollday presents, and then Mr. CRi'.JplPfcgy^ftrs. City Woman will rushfaown town half a million other thoughtless people along and spend an entire day trying to find what they want This system works to the disadvan tage of both the shopper and the store keeper. We know one year Jn ad vanee that Christmas Is coming. On the morning of the twenty-sixth day of December, this year, we will be as certain that next year we will have Christmas presents to buy—barring only death— as we will be eleven months and twenty-nine days later. We have 366 days, less 62 Sundays, to prepare for every holiday season. We waste—or most of us do—about 308 of these 313 available shopping days. Instead of putting off our Christmas trading until tomorrow the majority of Americans put it off until Christ mas, or as near that time as possible. What is the result? Well, one result Is that we pay twice as much for what we buy as we would if we did our buying at any other time of the year. Another result Is that we lose our tempers and wear ourselves out in our endeavor to "wind things up and get the presents off.’’ A third result is that we force the storekeepers to keep their shops open from 7 or 8 o'clock in the morning until 11 or 12 Miss Pellie Stephens, of Carlton was In the city yesterday. Mrs. Emmett J. Bailey and children have returned to Newnan after pleasant visit to Dr. and Mrs. J. llunnicutt. Mrs. H. C. Todd and Mrs. J. K.
