Now that the Christmas shopping season is upon
Us it behooves everyone to do their .purchasing now.
The merchants have bought complete stocks ini all
lines and are prepared to serve your every purpose
and at prices as cheap as can be found in any city in
The usual holiday rush will soon be upon us,
merchants, cierks and the buying public will be.de
moralized if we wait until the last minute for making
our selections and purchases of holiday goods. It is
a season of the year when we should give some
thought to our purchases and selections which can
not be done if we put off buying for the closing days.
Commence today and make your purchases while the
stocks are complete. You do not saveky waiting
you gain by buying now. Join the early Christmas
shoppers and get the pick of tho stocks and at prices

Greenville, (S. C.) News gives several good reasons
why tho mills come south frpm tho east. It says.
: It would be nonsense.ta point to any one factor
antJ'say it is the ci;uso of the Southern textile in
dustry outdistancing New England s because
there have been a combination of advantages en
tering into the equation. It took the South a long
time to capitalize them because it lacked per
haps the most necessary ingrediont of successful
manufacturing—experience. That has■ 1
now, however, and the South can manufacture
as fine goods as New England. The outstanding
reason for the eclipse of New England has boon
the Willingness of Southern mill operatives to
work hard and faithfully and the stability of em,
plovmcnt which the mills have provided, even in
limes of adversity. But it has been abetted by
(he fact of location of the cotton mills In the
cotton fields, by the saving In freight, by the
limnle. by cheaper living conditions and by a
ozen other factors winch have been recited of
ten before. . .. . _
These nro not the only reasons for the mills coming
south. One of the riiost Important reasons, to our
mind, is that the people of the south and especially
of the two Carolines realized that if they were, to
get the e mills that they must build and operate them.
The first mills secured in those states were financed
„i ..po.i Tha siipcmw of those institutions
I proved more than was expected and It was not' long
before capital in the oast commenced to aeek loca
tions in the heart of the cotton bolt They realized
that if southern men' with their own capital could
build cotton mills and operetta them successfully
that they could do as well and find a field far more
profitable than in the cast where the winters are
hard, labor scarce, higher wages and material far
from reach. This was the incentive which interested
many of the largo fniU operators to move south and
into the section where material and. labor are both
plentiful. Thero is room for mdre and now that tho
watef powers of the two Carolines are being util
ized to full capacity, it means that within a short
b time Georgia will be dotted with these mills when
ever power cfln be secured. Athens has many ad
vantages to offer, but v/e mu»t remember that our
largest and most successful manufacturing industries
were built and are operated by local men and with
local.dapital.
THE FORD-FOR-PRESIDENT MOVEMENT
The seeming wave sweeping over the country for
Henry Ford as a candidate for president of the
United States is not crystalizing as was expected by
the prime movers in the undertaking of creating a
ndslidc for the great automobile manufacturer,
hile it is generally conceded that he would poll a
rgc popular vote, yet it is not believed that hf>
could command a sufficient vote to make his candi
dacy 4 real factor in any of the states in the nation.
Ho is a remarkable man in many ways and has suc
ceeded in business beyond reasonable expectations
but as a candidate for the presidency he has not de
veloped that strength which had been hoped for‘by
hi.« ardent admirers and supporters. Having never-
indicated whether he would become a candidate on
either platform, democratic or republican, the lead;
era of both parties have fought shy of him and so
far no expressions favorable to his candidacy has
been given by either.
The line up of the democrats and republicans will
soon be apparent and the contest will be on in earn
est. f rom present prospects and indications, a demo
crat will succeed President Coolidge. The democrats
have more presidential timber than have the repub-
~ iicnns and it is the general belief that in the election
next year the voters of this country will cast their
ballots on issues and men more so than they will on
party lines. That being true, the democrats have
more to offer and we firmly believe that a majority
of the voters of this nation will support this derrtCf...
era tic candidate.
