HARMONY AND CO-OPERATION
v F6r a community to succeed grow and prosper
' Uiere must be harmony and co-operation among the
I Citizenship. No community ever prospered where
I there existed factionalism, petty prejudices and
A jealousy of one another for fear that one may gain
f a little more publicity or become more prominent, in
* this or that movement. An enterprise for the good
■ i6f the whole community-serving the public and
! without the least tinge of any personal benefits to
j| any citizen should be accepted by the whole people
[ and given unanimous support. Simply because the
B project was not rugger ted by this or that one does
l Hot excuse citizens or organizations in bringing OP
S’- position to the movement simply because it was not
I originally sponsored by them. If the movement is
j for the good of the community, all good citizens
I should join their support to the cause. , If we ever
r expect to grow and expand and build a greater and
| better city it must come from a hearty accord on the
p 7 part of the entire citizenship. Athens has grown
I beyond the station of the small town and small town
r ways; it is in a progressive city class and to be pro-
| gressive its citizens must live and work in a harmon-
. ious manner and put service above self. Strife
I- brought on by factionalism; greed for personal am-
r bitions to be satisfied is the root and basis ,for de
moralization and the breeding of an unrest and dis-
I astrous condition for the community. Let us forget
r petty "differences, desires for personal) aspirations
P and give our support whc/ieheartedly to all move-
( ments and purposes for the betterment of our city.
RESTORE CONFIDENCE IN COMMERCE
1 If there was ever an opportunity to restore con- j
fidcnce in all channels of commerce, this is the op- J
portunc time. With an unusual crop of cotton, for >
the acreage, and with the largest crop of foods and
feed stuff, poultry, cattle and hogs in this section,
the period of prosperity is dawning upon us and
forcing a return of normalcy. Our financial in
stitutions a be stronger than they have ever been.
More money is now on deposit in the local banks than
at any time since the close of hostilities. Our ware
house facilities offer every accommodation to the
{farmer and cotton grower which could be expected
under sound and safe business conditoins. Every
Sale of cotton placed on rtroage in this city is amply
'protected and bankable receipts issued for its value.
Wn rehouses In this city are inspected weekly by an
independent, and disinterested auditor who checks
every bale of cotton placed on storage and records
Uhe name of the owner and the date of the deposit
and the grade' of the cotton. Such a system as is in
augurated among the warehouses is a safe and satis
factory one to both the owner of the cotton and the
warehouseman. There is not a market in the stato
.vii ■ ii* there is paid a higher price for cotton than
in Athens; there is not a city in the state where the
merchants sell their goods at a cheaper price;
there is not a city in the state with a similar popula
te n to Athens, where ther is mope ready money in
die banking institutions' than in this city. Now
fjxen, with thece conditoins existing and these , in
ducements being offered, it behooves the farmer, the
-ottim grower and even the merchant in this section
o do their trading in Athens.

WASHINGTON. — Private
vices from Mexico indicate a great
deal of apprehension as a result of
the removal of President Obregon
to the state of Jalisco because of
his critical illness. *
These advices said partisans of
Adolfo De La Huerta and former
Governor Calles, two leading con
tenders for the presidency, ’
flocking into the capitol.
DID IT EVER OCCUR TO YOU?
A Little of Everything And Not Mudh at Anything.
By HUGH POWE. ,
COMMENCE THE NEW CROP RIGHT
I: ;, not too early to commence planning.for plant
ing time. Many counties have already formulated a
r i and the planters agreed upon a schedule for
'coming year. In Colquitt county, the farmers
"Iftive made ,up the following plan for the new year
which appdars to be a splendid program for that sec
tion I the state:
p'&irii, velvet beans and runner peanuts, 10 acres.
pOiit* followed by peavine hay, five acres.
r'Sweet potatoes, sugar cane, garden, etc., five
acre.-.
‘‘-Melons, Spanish peanuts or tobacco, five acres.
f/Trtick, three acres.
oj-VOTton, tive acres.
I^Pennanent pastures or waste or wet land, three
to live acres.
F>3ttree to five milch cows, two brood sows and
fifty purebred chickens.
r*j|r the farmers in every county in the state would
sfe? and agree un some definite plan for the new
TOjnrthe results would show a wonderful improve
ment over crops formerly grown without any defi
nite plan. In this section of the state the schedule
ftpuld be changed materially. There are things
which can be raised here that can not be raised in
ftp lower section of the state and no doubt there are
things which can be raised in South Georgia which
Swd not be raised profitably in this section. But
ifte all-important part of the whole proceeding is to
Bjmuiate and agree on some definite plan appli-

The cessation of the Irish
"war" has released a crop of
perfectly good storoes.
An Irish peer was threatened
with death, and It was left to one
of Ills own retainers to write the
annonymous letter. In due time
Lord X received the following
“Your life has been declared for
feit, and' yau must be prepared In
stantly to meet your end.
“I*. S.—I trust your Lordship
won’t thing there’s anything per
sonal In this.”
An ordinance to amend an
ordinance by striking the word
“dog catcher” therefrom and
in lieu there of insert the
word '‘policeman” so ns when
amended - the ordinance shall read
—“that from the passage of this
ordinance, policemen shall act in
the capacity of official dog catch
ers in the city of Athens.” Will
such an ordinance pass the mayor
and council? Wo do not believe
that It will for there are some of
the counellmen who are unwilling
to make dog catchers out of the
poller force. When the ordinance
is put on its final passage there
will no doubt arise opposition suf
ficient to defeat the measure and
we believe that it should be de
feated - .
And, here is another one of
the Irish jokes which no dcubt
has been heard quite oft 94, but
a joke on an Irishmin will
bear repeating:
grumbling because he
bad no money to spend while on
his summer holidays.
‘I don't know what to do,” he
groused to his friend Jack. ^
“Now Pat,” foe said, “you ought absence may cau-iii the other mem

and Cleckley. However, their

every week. By the tltpe your holi
days are due you will have a com
fortable hum in hand.”
“Right!’ repleid Pat. “I'll try It.”
Some weeks later Jdck met him '
and asked ’|!m how much he had
saved up In thO postoffice.
“ I have no idea,” said - Pat.
“No Idea! Haven’t you got a
book like mine?” ,
“No; I never troubled about a
book. I just dropped my money in
a letter box as I was passing.”

harder and when the final count
has been made, maybe Georgia will
not show np ho find after ail. But
in our opinion with these men out
| of the game, Georgia will get a low
classification.
The Ludowici News says:
“We have some stingy men
around Ludowici but none
stingy enough to buy roasting
ears with yellow kernels so the
kids will think they have already
been buttered.”
All communities have tightwad's.
It has always been that way and It
will ever so be, but there are so
many liberal-hearted cltixens It
over-balances the shortcomings of
others and in the final summing up
of a community there will be found
a great deal more of the good
than of the bad.
Florida will held thirty fairs
this fall. That is a promising
outlook and an indication of
prosperity and better times.
Confidence is being restored and
before we realize It, normalcy will
.return overnight and better timos
will bo upon us. Conditions nre im
proving ropldly and a better feel
Ing prevails in all lines of com
merco and industry.
