Back Yonder .- AND INC W~ - " AN ATHENS CHRONICLE Number Twenty-Two Athens was having trouble with its church singing in the summer of 1829 and, in addition, certain persons had gone out ‘of their way to criticize the healthfulness of the community. Since there was no board of health to play the role of whipping boy, nor a chamber of commerce to rush to the defense of the town, it was left to The Athenian (ancestor of The Banner-Herald) to both en courage better music in the houses of worship and scotch the bad reports concerning health conditions. Athens was growing rapidly at that time; the Baptists were mak ing plans to build a new meeting house, to furnish a religious home for their inereasing numbers. Up to that time there were only three churches in Athens, the Methodist, the Presbyterian and the African, The Baptists may have worshipped in either the Methodist or Presby terian churches, or assembled in the homes of their members, But now they were ready for a church of their own. They went about it in a business-like manner, a committee advertising for sealed' bids. The committee was comprised of John Cobb, Stephen. Borders, Thomas Moore, Stevens Thomas and John F. Hillyer, all leading men of the town. : To Improve Singing The Baptist congregation was lucky., Their new house of worship was being built in time to benefit from a movement to improve the church musie in the community. A group of citizens, interested in that important matter was being organ ized, and a meeting was scheduled to be held at the Athens Female academy. It was now time for The Athenian to take a hand. “We shall not pretend,” Editor Oliver P. Shaw declared in a leading editor ial “to enter into any formal argu ments to point out to the citizens of Athens the utility, and we might say the necessity of some improve ment in the melody of our church music, | “Every Sabbath day's experience gives us proof of the almost total neglect of this sacred service. A few, a very few there are, who have some skill in music, but those few are seldom suffered to be heard amid the cracked voices and un harmonious dissonance of the con gregation. “An opportunity now offers it self to all who are disposed to em brace it, to learn the rules of sac red psalmody, and we hope it will not be neglected. To the pious it is a duty, to the lovers of harmony an enjoyment, and to all an ele gant recreation after the business and duties of the day.” Giving Worry Three deaths, which had recently occurred in the community were giving the public-spirited” consid erable worry. These deaths, it seems. had revived the talk that Athens was not a very healthful place. The Athenian sought to put at rest these rumors about the health of the town, explaining that in a community of 1500 population “some deaths must be expected occasionally.” “We last week recorded two deaths in Athens,” said The Ath enian, “and it becomes our duty to add another this week. Three deaths in two weeks is certainly an unusual thing for Athens, and may give an impression that our town is becoming sickly. This, however, we know is not the fact. One of the cases recorded last week was of long standing, and was brought to this place. The other was a case of bilious colic and might have oceurred anywhere. “The case recorded this week was occasioned by an intemperate exposure to the rays of the sun on the river. W' have it from a res pectable physician, who either at tends upon or is cognizant to most of the ecases which occur here, that there is not now, within his knowledge, a single case of bilious fever in town. It should be recol lected that our population is now about 1500, Some deaths must be exnected oceasionally, among a population of that number in the most healthy seasons.” : Defends Community The above view found substantial (Continued-on Page Two) i ie T Merchants Asked to ' * Display Flags Friday Merchants today were asked by the Chamber of Commerce, and Miss Annie Crawford, past regent of Elijah Clarke chapter, D.

Prepare for inflation,” he said ip a speech prepared for de livery at a Boston Chamber of Commerce luncheon. . “Inflation of some kind surely is coming,” he said. “Our dollar now is worth only sixty cents abroad. It is only a question of time when it will be worth only sixty cents or much less in the United States. “Ninety-five per cent of prop erty owners and the great majority of you business men are worrying about inflation when you should be preparing to profit from it. Cer tainly it is as foolish knowingly to ecxpose one's self to inflation as to smallpox or other contagi ous disease. . . . ’ L “A very practical hedge against inflation is to put your money into real property and protect it. Fac tories, stores, apartment houses and other buildings, which can'be used for productive purposes will be ip greatest demand; but every kind of real property should pros per under inflation. . . . - “Labor troubles will tremend uously increase during a period of inflation. It is absolutely essenti al to hedge against them by treat ing one's employes, both as to wages and working conditions, fairly and yet not extravagantly.” NEW BREADBASKET BETHANY.

Mr. Gray called it “one of the most ironical stories in world his tory, the story of Eli Whitney's revenge” He traced the cultivation of cot ton from its earliest history in Asiag and Africa and dealt at length with the effect of Whit ney's invention of the cotton gin on cotton and American history. Whitney, according to Mr. Gray, attempted to gain a monopoly of cotton with patents on his gin and because the South broke the mon opoly with what Whtiney consid ered unfair methods, he became embittered toward the South. But Whitney's revenge, Mr. Gray said was the revival of slavery, the Civil War, soil erosion, and a one crop system, all traceable to the jnvention of the cotton gin.

PROBLEM OF PAROLE AGAIN IN SPOTLIGHT Arrest of Waley Revives Issue; Ex-Convict Ar rested Seven Times BY EDWIN B. HAAKINSON Associated Press Staff Writer WASHINGTON —(AP) — The old problem of parole for prison ers—a topic fraught with coniro versy—has been thrust to the front again by the Weyerhaeuser kidnaping. 3 i ' Director J. Edgar Hoover of the “G” men points to wrecords showing that Harmon M. Waley, seized in the kidnaping and William Mahan, now being hunted, were both paroled from places of deten tion in the past. Irony tihges Hoover's voice as he declares that both men had “magnificent records.” 3 Whatever Hoover may think of the parole system in general, the idea of parole finds a strong de fender in Sanford Bates, director of the federal Bureau of Prisons. It sometimes results in the unwise freeing of a Dillinger or a “Pretty Boy"” Floyd, he said recently, but “to condemn the system because of these men is gross error.” - Justice department officials now are examining state and .federal records as a result of President Roosevelt's recent order for.an in quiry into parole. e _ “T am giving this subject care “ful study,” Attorney General Cummings answered . a telegram from the president. He said paroles present ' “the always difficult problem of eradicating evils while at the same time preserving and strengthening a vital and useful gsystem.” : Hoover said the fugitive Mahan was first sentenced for auto theflt in Montana in 1923.
