Thq-people of Athens will be called upon Mon- ' day to show their interest and loyalty in the cam* paigiafor the eradication of the treacherous disease —tuberculosis. Devoted men and women to the : i cause: will give their time and cnegries to the sale of ■ Christmas anti-tubercular seals. Every penny of this money will be used in paying the expense of conduct ing the fight against tuberculosis In this city and t-eouniy- It Is a case of alarming magnitude and one In which every family and every citisftn in the com munity should be interested. This dangerous dis ease may enter your home first, your wife or your child may be the victim. Your purchases of seals - will help to prevent the spread of the disease and it will help to foster and support an organization which! is being used for the specific purpose of stamping out nnd eliminating the ravages of the most dreadful disease mankind has to contend with. The! local committees are in earnest in the work with which they have associated themselves and it is for, the good of all citizens alike which has prompted them to undertake the task of disposing of 6ver three thousand dollars worth of seals. EverjCpicce of mail matter sent out from this time until «ie holiday season is over should carry stamped on it a seal showing that you are in sympathy with the movement and that you are doing your part to wards eliminating the terrorizing disease. Tht*T>urchase of these stamps or seals is one of the test investments you can make. Every dollar in vested will pay handsome divdends in the saving of lives and the saving of many from sickness and de- jon of all that may be hoped for in this life, pur duty and it is an obligation which you owe Irsclf and to your fellow man to buy these ind help promote the cause for which the sale jided. Ask for Christmas anti-tubercular seals and see to it that, every piece of mail matter bears ■ upon it before mailing- HOME FOR GIRLS • t The movement inaugurated by the Episcopal in this state to build a home for girls in is a timely and deserving cause. It is pro nto care for orphan girls and provide for them io and an education. There they will be cared for wtyh as much interest as they would in their own homes and every opportunity will be given them to make'of themselves women of the future to help f direct the destinies of the country and of the church. •rJBvwy Episcopalian in this diocese should respond to tile, call and aid in providing a sufficient fund for the completion of this much needed building. Many orphan children without homes or friends are ap pealing for help and looking to the good people of tjiat church to provide a way and a home for them to reach thBt stage in iife where they will be pre pared; to care for themselves and become independ ent and resourceful. The offerings in many churches on Thanksgiving Day. no doubt, realized a considerable sum with which'to further this cause and it ia hoped that no delay-may be experienced in bringing to a comple tion the proposed home for orphan girls. , Th* golden voice of Enrico Caruso still lives.

He patented an auto mobile attachment which has. met that is faithful in that which is 'least is faithful also in much; and he that is unjust in the-least is unjust also in much.—Luke 16:10.

S HANGED CONDITIONS OF FARMING cotton flirting with 35 cents, there can be no doubt^as to the returning interest in farming. This will create greater farm values and a better demand for a higher grade of labor. Tractors, binders, gang piowdr disc harrows, and all labor saving imple-. ments-will be largely substituted for hand labor and Improved methods will prevail where formerly slouchy and slipshod lack of system was the usual way of doing things. • • Thi" porch farmer is one individual that will be dispensed with under the new order of things! A man cannot be expected to sit ail day in the shade and iB the cool of the evening sally forth to ,tell his hands how they should have done a particular piece >f work. The intensive plan which will be pursued in the future requires that the head of the affairs devote his entire time and attention -to the operations going on. He must make every edge cut, and if he has an expensive machine that saves the wprk of a number of laborers, it may not do to entrust it to an inexperienced hand. He can assure its cafeful and correct operation by being its own operator. Wo were talking with a North Carolinian the othor_day who appeared to be a man of affairs and a practical man. He remarked that the tremendous prosperity of North Carolina was largely the result of small farms. He said there were no immense plantations in his state pnd everybody worked. They .farmed there on the intensive plan, and while * the sdil was not naturally so productive as the soil in Georgia, that it was worked better, fertilized better and produced more.
