PROFIT SHARING CAMPAIGN SUCCESS The profit sharing campaign inaugurated by the merchants of Athens proved a wonderful success yes terday, the opening day. Crowds from this entire soction thronged the stores and from the early hour ' pf opening until the closing hour the clerks were taxed to. the their utmost capacity to wait on the many customers seeking the rare bargains which had been offered by the various firms who are interested in the trade campaign. .Many of the stores offered special "Dollar Day” bargains while others offered special bargain sales on their entire stock. These inducements, as announced in Die Banner-Herald Thursday, had reached the peo ple throughout Athens trade territory and they were here in largo numbers. It was convincing and an ab solute certainty that when our merchants co-operate and join in a movement success will be' attained. The sidewalks and Htores presented the appearance of a circus day crowd, the difference being that those here were looking for bargains instead of .the parade. The bargains were here for them and everyone who in ado purchases expressd themselves as satisfied with. their purchases and indicated that they would be hero next week for the special bargain day sales. Thousands of dollars from this section floated into ihe tills of the Athens merchants and one of the big gest sales days ever held in this city marked the open ing of .the first day of profit sharing sales to be held in Athens during the month of November. Now that the firef day has proved such a success, ' let us try to make the second week a record breaker. It enu be done and larger sales made than those of Saturday- The merchants have the stocks and the people have more money this year than during any year since the closing of hostilities. Keep up the bar gain day sales and the profit sharing trade month will prove to be the largest month’s business this city has ever experienced. BRIGHT PROSPECTS FOR 1924 - In all sections of the state there seems to be a spirit of optimism prevailing and a feeling of co-operation which will extend over the entire state with the bank ers, merchants and farmers hand-in-hand for better limes and bigger crops another year. The Tifton Gazette in speaking of the relation be tween the farmer and banker’in that section has the following to suy of a movement inauguatred by the banks of Terrell county: "The banks of Terrell county took a page in the last issue of the Dawson News to boost the farm plan adopted at a county-wide mass meeting last week, ami to urge the farmers to get rid of their cotton stalks, and the Eooner-they get rid of them the bet ter. The banks also -pointed out that, although the total of hard luck, bad weather and other things to get back farm work this year was enough to dis courage them, the majority still had their homes and health, family, friends, churches, schools and climate and one of the greatest agricultural spots on earth, and it is up to them to remedy their condition and suggested the remedy in the farm plan adopted, and 'offering their co-operation. It is going to take this kind of co-operation between town and country to ■pull the farmers through this year and make them seo that; they are not beaten, and to encourage them to a new start for the new 'year, with faith in their God and in the resources of this country which have been barely scratched, and coiftidencc in the fact that their friends in the towns will do all in their power ' to help them through a temporary setback." If the proposition is good for the communities in South Georgia, such a proposition will be good for I the communities in this section of the state. Such a t-Tiirii. however, has prevailed here and no section of the state can boast of fetter and more harmonious co-operation with the farmers than has our banks ' here. It has long since been realized that without 'co-operation between farmers, merchants and bank «*rs little could be accomplished for the upbuilding of the community and for the increasing of wealth and j.-^*?ab!e and condition*. Thi* section is en joying an era of prosperity and another year ia bound i" bring forth times of plenty, confidence restored and a reunited agricultural, banking and commercial in terest- DID IT EVER OCCUR TO YOU? , A Llttlt of Everything And Net Much of Anything. ■y HUGH ROWS. Saturday wee a lonesome day In Athene. Those who were loft hore fait like thoy should bo in Columbus and thoir whole thought* and talks wore about the game between Georgia and Auburn.

Our public school system is developing the mind of the child along educational lines, but it is impossible for the public school system with its multitudinous de mands to emphasize to any great extent the develop ment of character in the individual child. It very often happens that we depend too much upon our school system and neglect, in the child, the more essential problems which are the foundation of his existence.

Colquitt county ia not holding a fair this year, but ► li-vi announced a live stock show which will exhibit ih<- best stock of hogs, cattle sheep and poultry to be 1 <mud ip the county. Farmers of that county learned h v iod many years ago not to depend on -cotton for n living. They adopted the “cow, hog and hen” program long before Turner county had ever heard of it. Commenting on one phase of the show that is worthy of a little reflection, the Moultrie Observ er says: “N'i.o will come to the show? Not the pleasure hunter. There will not be noise enough for him. Not the fern’s wheel rider and the baby doll gambler. The racp track devotees will be absent- Those who come will probably be those who want to gee something worth while and learn something Worth while.” / The teaching of the fundamental principles of right living must come from the home or -the church. The public schools cannot accept this responsibility. The duty of any parent is to instruct the child in the way he should go and point out to him the principles which should gu^de him through life. The home, stimulated and elevated by church affiliatiqn", gives the* parents the means to guide the child in the way he should go.
