' l~Th THE UNDERPRIVILEGED CHILDREN | A most commendable undertaking has been in i' Augurated by the Kiwanis club of Albany, in estab- , lishinc a twice-a-wcek free clinic for children who | may Be unfortunate and need assistance. Doctors and dpntirts have responded to the movement and of fered their services free; the members of the Kiwanis club have raised a fund sufficient to bear all cx- pensos for supplying medicines, dental materials, fecial foods, eyeglasses and such other things as may be needed, in providing for the underprivileged children of that city. This club proposes not to only help those who may ply, but they have appointed committees who will surac the responsibility of hunting up those who may. he in need and yet too proud or timid to seek the benefits which have been provided for them by these'generous-hearted gentlemen.' Theta are children in ail communities who have physical defects and regardless of their station in life dir financial condition, parents should sec to it that proper carp ami attention is given them parly in life. The life df many children is made miserable from some weakness or physical defect which could have been relieved if given the proper attention by physicians and specialists. It is an important move ment and moans much to the coming generation. 'As a suggestion: The Kiwanis and Rotary clubs of this city could not undertake a movement which would mean more to the community than by follow ing the precedent set by the Albany club of Kiwan- lans. It is believed that the physicians, dentists and specialists here would give of their time freely for such a purpose—certainly the professional members of these clubs would contribute generously of their v time to the work cf relieving and aiding ail such cases as might be brought to the clinic.' COME AND GET IT IF YOU WANT IT iv- For some time’The Banner-Herald has Dcen trying to interest not only neighboring farmers, buti the residents of many of the small, towns and villages in this section In the fact that AthcnB as a market could and would take at a fair price all tho produce they pould raise and get to market in merchantable shaprji. An investigation of just what tho Athens , market, alone, can be made to mean to neighboring furms from a cash standpoint indicates that tho fig ures will run into a good many million dollars. Athens’ annual food bill runs from 2 to 3 million dollars a year, and around $1,000,000 could and ought'to be produced and sold from nearby farms. If neajby farmers could bo assured of an annual in- ; , come from the Athens market of $1,000,000 a year, imagine we would hear less of the boll wectil. The chances arc that with such an income yearly coming in from the Athens market and with the prorpects of shipping any surplus to outside markets, it wouldn’t be long before this income could he doubled, for Florida to the couth of us with its winter tourist trade is always in the market for carload lots of chickens and eggs, and butter and milk and cream for the hotel trado. Conservatively speaking, Athens annual food bill will run something like the following: Poultry Products $500,000 Butter 360,000 Milk 008,000 ' I -Pork Products 200,000 Beef 260,000 ‘Potatoes 136,000 •ty/"' /Vegetables 227,000 In round figures nearly $2,000,000 for food most of which can and ought to bo raised on nearby and adjoining farms. Sugar, flour, fish, and other item.: in Athens’ diet will run these figures up a mil lion dollars more a year. It seems that here Is a market if our farmers care to come and get it. May be, when' they get tired of wrestling with tho boll weijvil, they will turn their attention to the food mu ’ bet, not only in Athene but in other nearby cities. H Outside markets for carload shipments can easily be ured so that the local markets can bo stabilized ami any glut he prevented. As indicated Florida in the winter would prove a desirable market for eggs, poulti-y and butter, just as Florida at the present time is calling upon Georgia for late vegetables and tomatoes in carload shipments. The North and East can npt raise their own food and will always take " hat this section could ship in the way of eggs and chickens and fruits and vegetables. As the natives of South Africa for years walked over the diamond fields,* kicking the pebbles out of the way without realizfcg their value, so the farmers’of this section seem to be overlooking 2 to 3 million dollars a year cash money, any day in the year, while they ^BBtintic to lose their money and their tempers over Hhc ravages of the boll weevil. — President Cooiidge has recognized the government of Mekico. Why not recognize the government of Russia, There is little difference in the countries in sofar as their reliability is concerned. A bumper business is predicted for this fall. Now is the time for merchants to replenish their stocks and be prepared for the demand for goods in all lines of business. ‘Tiger” Relents and { Cameraman Gets Forty Photographs (By Associated Press.) rARIS—ueonre Clemohceau hoi olway. had an Intense dislike to. pretw photographs.
