A NATION PASSED BY
To a Good Samaritan:
A nation is dying of hunger.
It is a small weak nation, and
its call for help is unheard
among the stronger appeals of
its powerful neighbors, in their
sudden sufferings. For three
years the country of Albania,
has been the victim of sword
and tamide. Now, the people
are without food. Ten thou
sand human beings are starving
daily.
The women are emaciated;
thier bones seem about to pro
trude through the skin. Would
you give bread to one famished
woman; save for her a child as
dear to her as yours to you?
Would you win a grateful look
from the appealing eyes ot her
in whose wasted hands you
place the gift?
Give one hundred cents to buy
flour for Albania. If you have
given to other countries until
you feel that you can do no
more, give ten cents. A bit of!
bread from from each of the
well fed to one of these will
feed all.

PESSIMISM HOT II
BUSINESS KIT
Pessimism is never an asset.
Disaster at its worst is never
quite as bad as it seems. Human
nature is prone to magnify little
things which point toward de
struction, and to enumerate the
trifling details which seem to
tend against successful life and
living. This is human nature,
past, present and future. At the
best it is never an asset and
should not be courted as a ad
visory measure in determining
final results.
Profit and loss must necessarily
enter into the business consider
ation of any enterprise, regard
less of its commercial character.
They constitute the two fortuitous
elements which constantly are
plying the trial balance for a
decission, and thus require con
stant and vigilant attention on
the part of the management to
j secure a mangin in favor of the
business. Loss and expense is or
should be understood in any
undertaking. Small indeed must
be the enterprise which assumes
no risk or liability, and corres
pondingly advantageous must be
the rewards, if returns there be.
However, unlike pessamism >
profit and loss; reward and ex
pense are concrete factors of
every commercial or industrial
enterprise. Expense begins with
the beginning and continues as
long as the business lasts. Losses
of various kinds also enter into
the transaction from the first
and demand a tithe of the pro
fits all (he way along. Such it is
and such it shall remain so long
as business is contingent upon
human infalliability and the un
certainties of fickle markets,
nations and the elements. To all
these things, however, we are or
should not be strangers. History
is one long chapter of uncertainty
and indecission, and records that
success and enterprise with every
age and people has been achiev
ed against the prevalence of
these disturbing elements. There
fore being familiar with such, it
is the part of wisdom and timely
discretion to meet defeat and
apparent disaster more than half
wav with courage and well de
fined determination. To take up
the threads of defeat and weave
them into industrial garment of
respectable and respected suc-
ces.
RDECOEiLUKE MAY TAKE
STUMP TOR JUDGE COX
Thomasville.Ga., Aug. 9.—Hon
Roscoe Luke today issued the
following statement; As to the
race between Judge E. E. Cox
and Judge Frank Park, for con
gress, I have had no intention of
taking an active part in this
campaign, desiring to leave it
with these gentlemen to fight
out on a hight plane between
themselves.
So far as I know both gentle
men have as to their own acts
conducted a high class, clean
campaign, but from rumors now
afloat Mr. Walter Park, a brother
of the congressman, instead of
following legitimate fpolitics is
seeking to aid his brother by a
wide spreading of slander. If he
takes the stump for his brother,
and fails to conduct a campaign
on the same high plane as is
conducted by the candidates
themselves. I shall meet him on
the stump. Adv.
