They were paying old bills and having new doctoring | done ahd seemed to have plenty of money. f VY hen times are hard doctors suffer as much from the de- pression as other business men. What the Athens doctor has noticed in his pro fession is true of business generally in this section of the South today. There is plenty of money in the : country, and it is coming to town to buy the things the country man and his wife take.: u fancy to. But a large dart df this money is coming from the activities of the«aw and planing mills, and the lumber camps. When ttumpage ic sold, the land owner gets his share * of this.lumber money. When the small saw mill gets to work, wager are paid to cut the timber, to haul it to the mill, to the crew that operates the saw mill, to more men to haul it when sold to the nearby planing mill, a»d more wages to stack or load it, un til it is-finally sold at high prices to the East or West that ^apparently taking every plank that the South Can turnout. . In some counties-ulong the Georgia Railroad, more than li)0 raw mills are at work with two or more planing mills at various stations. Immense sums of raoneyvare changing hands each week as a result of this unprecedented activity in lumbering in this sec tion. Railroads are having difficulty in supplying the ears nleded to move this lumber, and a large part of the labor in these counties has left the farms and gone to thelsaw mills. Unfortunately a year or two will see the present supply of timber largely exhausted but in the meantime, seme of the spetions around Ath- ents ate undobutedly prosperous as a result ot the great activity in the lumber business. TheSchances- arerthat this summon will rep busindas ! a "high peak in this section of the South. Instead of having ot wait pntii the fall to market a cottbn ' <*roji in order to pay bills and make needed purchases, the lumber pay roljs will provide each week and each monthjn very large supply of ready p^sh mCney thntjiBj will find its way into the ■every-day tffcde of the va rious towns and villages and cities in; thls i|ed!Sbn..,**i Sonic timo ago ^Thc Bannor-Herald"predicted thatfjl the South would have as much money to spend in July i.«? it previously had ty spend in October. But we were * counting on this money coming in from diversified farming, from cream checks, from hogs and chickens,, and ninny truck crpps at various seasons, Maybe this will c8mo later. As it is, the large pay rolls of the" various activities of tho lumber burincsf, are turning flgihMB Jarge sums of money each week in all sections ( ,<>f tlio South and particularly around Athens. 1 -ORGANIZE A CONVENTION BUREAU Ma(iy cities throughout the country hive convcn- 1 ion bureaus. These bureaus are not only organized for the purpose of securing conventions, but for the j purpose of underwriting the expense of holding the [ conventions. There is very little expense attached to the average convention for the locality in which it is held if* the representatives are men who are prepared . to pay their own way ar.d besides spend many ilol- iais with the hotels, boarding houses, Cafes, barber ' shops'and stores of all lines of business. It is highly Important for the growth of Athens that it secure more Jonventions anil this can bo done only through concerted action and by some official organization • iireCgy responsible. 1 In Atlanta the 'convention bureau functions inde- . jicndently o/ tho Chamber of Commerce of that city Sfijd the same should be done here, but without apy ajenvities whatever on the part of bur people to se- t 'tyire conventions it is quite certain that these reprei f-entaQves of the various commercial and fraternal ‘organizations will not force their meetings on any city, {invitations should be sent to those meetings xtnd, fetter still, the invitations should be presented in person by some official representative of an organ- izati'dJi of the City of Athens.' - prder that some of the conventions now being .held in the state may be secured for Athens in 1924, I why Jot organize.and extend to these people an in-.
