The Residence Problem in
Athens.
It takes money and labor and ma
terial and many other things to erect
residences. Talking and writing will
not erect them. And yet sometimes
talking and writing do shake the
money loose and direct the labor to
got tiie material together.
That is the only excuse offered for
this article. \Ve know it cannot do
any harm. It may bore some readers
who have read practically the same
thing many times 111 these columns,
but again It may stir some fellow up
who lies the money and make him
get busy.
We know that with labor and ma
terials as high as they are at present
the building of residences does not
appeal vory strongly to the man with
money looking for a good investment.
Hut a careful thought on the subject
might lead to a different conrluslon.
The demand for residences Is such
as to guarantee a good rental. Beo
plo are paying now for houses sums
thut a few months since would have
been regarded as absurd. They seem
absurd now, but the people arc get
ting used lo them and gradually the
high rent is becoming adjusted by the
Increases In wages and salaries and
other Income.
The situation in Athens Is acute.
Wo suppose it is the same way In
other cities that are alivo and pro
gressive. The very limit of growth
in this city has been reachod unless
mere residences are built.
And there 1» another, thing, to be
considered. The business Interests of
the city have outgrown the business
quarters of the past. Now. business
will not brook Inconvenience. The
preparing of residences is one thing
and the preparing of business housos
is another, and whenever a business
wants a location it goes after it and
gets it. ,rf thore Is a residence on
tho lot, down come* the resldonco and
the family that.occupied It will have
to look after another place in which
to live.
Now it so happens that business In
Athens is on a regular boom. The
business development of the city
i omnrkalilc. House after house has
been torn down to make way for
business houses. That adds to the
problem of now residences. Then,
too. scores of fumilles from tho coun
try have moved in to get advantage
of the educational facilities of the
city. Then, too tho attendanco upon
tno University of Georgia has almost
r'oubled. All this means moro real
dcntial space required.
There is no graver problem before
(he people of Athens right now than
this ono. Just how It will be worked
rut |r. hard lo tell, but it will be
worked out. for Athens is not going
backward.
The I eliding of the large new
apartment house that has been plan
ned will give some help. It will take-
care of a few of tho families that arc
seeking homes, lull that will not bo
a drop in the bucket.
Fifty new residences cculd bo filled
tomorrow, before tho sun sets and
thru there would he others clamor
ing for homes. Those citizens who
are taking the load In the develop
ment of the city have given much
thought to this problem and no doubt
in some way will work out a solu
tion.
Genera! Walter A. Harris
The announcement In the nows
rolunuis of Tho Banne: on Wednes
day. suggesting tho candidacy of Gen.
Walter A. Harris for the United
States Senate, has met with general
favor throughout tho state.
General Harris Is the man for that
cilice. He Is a young man possessed
with much native ability; resource
ful and an able lawyer. A soldier and
a goldenheartod gentleman. He Is
veteran of the Spanish-American
*war and of the world war. He Is a
Democrat. A loyal citizen to Ills na
"’on; to the administration and to the
r if nice rat Ic party. There are no half
way grounds In his make-up. He
stands for all that Is good represented
in our government and tho people
would be safe in entrusting to him
the highest oHlce In their gift In tills
slam in the council of the nation.
Georgia has been misrepresented.
Our citizens have been embarrassed
by the actions of former Senator
Hardwick and of Senator Hoke
Smith. The time has come whan this
state and this country need men of
Iho typo of General Harris. Men who
have tho nerve and the brain to stand
under Ore In these unusual times, and
men who are not s-asily swayed by
popular clamor for pet schemo* born

General Harris was called by his
country on two occasions to defend
tho rights of her pebple and to pro

TO RUST OR NOT TO RUST, THAT
IS THE QUESTION.
I. Where Rust Doth Corrupt.
My cutting-off saw has just come
back and with it a message from tho
man to whom I sent it to bo filed.
“I can’t make a good job of It,” he
said. "That raw is too badly rusted
ever to take a perfect ejige." It is
an interesting meditation in morals
to study the edge of a rusted blade.
The steel itself is pitted and it is
impossible ever to put the keen edge
on It that untarnished steel would
bear. The substance of the blade is
gone. It never can do its work so
well as would have been possible had
the rust not corrupted It. This Is
what Jesus, who was a carpenter,
must have had in mind when He told
us not to seek to lay up treasures
"where rust doth corrupt."—Zion’s
Herald.
II. No Rust Here.
Do missionaries love their work
I Do its blessings compensate them for
j any hardships? Listen to those words
i from Dr. L. \V. C’ronkhite, of Bras-
I sein, Burma, who has completed
I thirty-eight years of service in the
| foreign field: "I have been thinking
i lately that if I could he a young man
again I would joyously undertake an
! other forty years of service, prefer-
j ably In my own Brassein field. I havo
i nevor tired of the work, although
| often, of course I have tired in it as
' you do in good service at home.” This
same happiness Is expressed in dif-
i ferent words by a young missionary
in China only four years. He says
| "For almost two years we have been
| In charge of a field. They have been
| the best two years of life so far. Cor
| talnly there is no work like mission
! ary work for real joy and satisfae
! tion. I say this despite the many In
j evitable discouragements and diflicul
‘ ties."—The Baptist.

“HIDDEN WORKERS.”
Dr. W. E. Doughty writes;
“When In his last Illness the heail
of an eastern college was told that
he was about to die, he replied, ‘Is
that so? Then lift me from the bed
and place mo on my knees and let
my last act be a prayer to God for
the salvation of the world.'
“Hidden workers, too, there are
who are mighty 'helpers together by
prayer.’ Dr. O. Campbell Morgan
nedicates his book on 'The Practice
of Prayer' to one of these: 'To Ma-
and ho continued all n'ght in prayer
to God.'
“We dare not forget also that He
promised His followers that through
prayer 'Greater things lhan these

Have you ever noticed the cloudy appearance of
Orange-Crush and Lemon-Crush while enjoy-*
ing these rare-flavored drinks? Jwj \
The reason for this cloudiness is also the reason
for the uncqualcd deliciousness of Orange-Crush
and Lcmon-Crush—for it is caused by the uni
form distribution throughout the drinks of thou
sands of minute particles of the actual fruit oil
pressed from freshly picked oranges atm lemons.
The interesting process which has made this pos
sible was perfected five years ago by N.C. Ward,
and is exclusive with Orange-Crush Company.
It marks one of the greatest steps fonvard ever
♦aken in the preparation of soft drinks, for it
brings to you, without preservatives, the pure,
delightful flavors which have made oranges and
lemons the favorite fruits in every home. The
cloudiness is your guarantee of genuineness,
flavor and quality.
The booklet,"The Story of Ward’s Orange-Crush
and Lemon-Crush,” gives full details regarding
the making of these drinks. It shows how deli-
cate flavors are obtained by combining the fruit
oils with purest granulated sugar and citri<? acid
—the natural acid of oranges and lemons.
