When you see a ship, an American
ship.
That's riding the open sea,
When you watch her clean bows
rise and dip
And her pennant flying free;
If you have eve r laid Yankee pride
In even the least degree,
You'll thrill, us over the surging
tide
A; vine bears three grapes—the first of pleasure,
the'second of drunkenness and the third of repent-
andf.—A nach arsis.
A RARE OPPORTUNITY
We ruccess of tho Athens Curb Market has placed
Athens in a position where it can really render ser
vice* to agriculture in Northeast Georgia. If there
eve* was a time when the people of this section be
lieved in tlie desire of Athens business men to help
thetifarmer that time is now.
t presenting the counties of Oconee, Jackson, El-
Madison, Oglethorpe, Hanks and Walton, and
otters, four hundred and sixty farmers have ob
tained permission to cell their home-grown products
on .the Curb Market and since May 5 have visited
thrftmarket three times each week. This Market
hasjbrought to them the chance to get a little extru
cadi money to tide them over the summer months.
jfo one has been enriched to any considerable ex-
tetjjby the Curb Market but scores have beea materi
ally helped.
■ What Athens has done through the Curb Market is
but’h drop in the bucket to what Athens can do in
th^'futui'c if her citizens follow the road pointed out
byihe success of the Curb Market.
There is a tendency on thy part of most of us to
puv.off until tomorrow what, we had best do today.
Fogthat reason we sometimes find ourselves prepar-
ingiifor an emergency in ha. te, when we should have
pr<jj>ared for it iu our leisure. This inclination to dc«
fer»*has caused .millions of loss to* the people of this
couptry. We realize the importance of organization
butjwe wait too late sometimes to organize and there*
fort) organize imperfectly. ;
t( Northeast Georgia farmers are going to. . reap..
iasHng benefits from the Curb Market they should
pUfit more food crops. Not only that;- the business
meU of this:town should see to it that they receive
ght kind of co-operation in financing a market-
rganizatioii to handle a large surpiau of food
which t-rtfi and’should bo grown* in this section,
make money out of food crops it is necessary
they be hamiled in such a way that the surplus .
be marketed promptly. A man can. Jiold'his cot-
and take a small less pei 1 bale but find crops are
d tfierent. If they are not marketed when they arc
ripg they perish and the grower loses.all. To,market
'considerable amount.of.food crpps, machinery„
t be provided. And this, machinery should bc'-per-
fecXcd, oiled and ready to function when it is needed.
pie farmer can grow, the food crops but the busi
ness man in the city must provide machinery to mar-
' ke|;thcm. If Athens wants to “put money in her
putyo”, to stute* it frankly, if not delicately, Athens
mivst provide marketing machinery for the surplus
f.-idd crops grown by the farmers in this territory. Un-
ir.-rt Athens does it some other town in this section
wi[(. Athens is.in position to do if better than any
other town or city in Northeast Georgia.but, mark
yoS Mr. Athenian, there arc other towns in this seo-
tioli and they arc not all. asleep. ,
|. The meeting of farmers of Northeast Georgia
| hert Saturday should result in paving the way for es
tablishment of this marketing machinery. As we un-
drrjtand it the meeting is called primarily to organize
thesgrowors themselves and to-get a line on what is
' being planned in the way of producing food crops
'foMiext season. County Agent Firor is acting wise
ly end in stop Wit)i the needs of the hour in calling
. th$ meeting and the Chamber of Commerce has
: hoc. n a willingness to help him by endorsing tho .
nujtirg. t
However, the Chamber of Commerce will be given
r tin;,opportunity for some real work by promoting the
niaVhincry to market these .surplus fooa crops. And
in the performance of this task the Chamber of Com-
tnqfce rhould receive the full support of the business
me* of this City. , • '

PREMIER SPURNS NECKTIES
WARSAW—Premier Witos of
Poland never wears a necktie.
This, it is said, is in order to ac
centuate his peasant origin, al
though his suits are cut by the
best tailor in Poland. A Warsaw
newspaper recently opened a sub
scription to • buy a tie for Mr.
Witos. In a few days the funds col
lected amounted to $1,700,000
marks. Mr. Witos would not ac
cept the money, however, and at
his request it v/as handed over
