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 right 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.
