THURSDAY, MARCH 17, 1821. GET TOGETHER. If ever there was a time in the history of the South when there was need for serious thought about our problems, surely that time is now’. The land ps full of bitterness and strife, class arrayed against class, city nguinst country, farmer against consumer, labor against capital. This condition has arisen not altogether thru the pro fiteering and gambling spirit, which has come to us as a legacy of the last few years, but largely thru misunder standing, and I venture to suggest a remedy, without which our whole land will be plunged into utter ruin. It is a very simple one, just “get together.” Does the merchant or the landlord or the banker feel that he can stand if the farmer is unable to plant a crop during the coming summer? On the other hand, does the farmer or laborer think ho can ride upon the high places if railroads and banks and houses of merchandise are forced to the wall? It is an old saying that no “man liveth to himself.” And there was never truer than today. We all need each other, terribly. We need each other's confidence. It is a time for patience, and a time for co-operation, and lack ing this, the South faces calamity such as it has never known. There is a curious thing about human nature, that is the consequence of a lack of true religion. It is a lack of faith. Just as when cotton was 45c a pound, we all thought it never could tumble again; so now that it has reach ed the bottom, we are sure that it never will rise again. The man who has faith today is the man who is laying the basis for a future fortune. There never was such a time to buy cotton, to buy land, to buy anything. It never can be any lower. It is bound to rise. It has never failed yet! There was never such a time to help finance the raising of a crop, or the helping tide over a fellow man or a business. It will be repaid a hundredfold. We have found out that without the markets of Europe, we are financially ruined. Labor has found that without capital, there must he untold suffering. The farmer and the merchant have discovered that one cannot exist with out the other. When we lose confidence in each other, we all suffer. Society stands or falls together. If there is not a good crop next year, it is not only the farmer who will suffer. The whole South and every man in it will feel the result. AV*uit is the remedy? Let every right thinking man feel that this is a time for compromise. We must live and let live, or we shall all suffer together. Why should not Winder have a Cham ber "of Commerce that could direct such a movement? In saving others, we shall save ourselves, and if anybody knows any other way of commercial salvation, let him speak. The golden rule will solve more than moral and religious problems. It is our only hope of commercial salvation now. The world's markets will he wide open again in six months. There is very little over production. The wheels of industry are going to turn, and a mortj'volid prosperity is in our keeping, if we are willing to have just a little faith and confidence in ach other and in God. The man in the parable said “Have patience with me and 1 will pay thee all.” Because he would not, his Lord would not. and he was delivered to the If lie had had patience all the debts would have been paid. Let us have more faith in the manhood of the South, in the future of our coun try. in the goodness of God. There are good times coming if we'll only pave the way for them by mutual confidence, industry and thrift. This is what saved us before, in the Sixties, and it will save us again. Let us get together'. L. WILKIE COLLINS Winder News Want Ads—sc line.

NOTE OF THANKS No words can express the gratitude of my heart for the kindness of friends and neighbors during my recent ill ness. Many a lonely hour was brigh tened by the messages and flowers that came from friends, fel low-workers in the church and Sun day school class. It is not easy to pass thru such an ordeal, but it is a reve lation and a blessing to know of all the sympathetic hearts there are in Winder. Above all I wish to thank those who remembered me in their prayers before and during my opera tion. It was to this that I attribute my recovery. Home looks mighty good to me, and Heaven will not seem any brighter that Winder did on my return from the hospital. 1 only wish that all of you may have the same experience if you are called to pass thru such a trial.

IN LOVING REMEMBRANCE OF JOHN A. J. MCDONALD, BORN IN THE YEAR 1846 AND DIED 1921 Following an attack of Influenza which caused a steady decline in health for the past year, John A. J. McDonald passed away at his old home in Chan dler's district, March 3, 1921. He bore his affliction courageously, aud with marked degree of patience, trusting in God, and waiting to be released from his suffering. Funeral services held by his former pastor, J. H. Wood, assisted by It. W. Haynie, a neighbor and life-long friend, were attended by multitudes of old friends and neighbors who called to show their respect for hil and to ex press their sympathy for the family. He was born Decemben 5, 1346, and on November 17, 1872, was married to Miss Laura A. C. Robertson. To this happy union, nine children were born, a son, and daughter passing on in infancy, and a grown son a few years ago. There remains, besides his widow, two sous and four daughters who will rise up to call him blessed. Some thirty-five years ago he identi fied himself with the Christian church and wms faithful till death. He has left his widow and children a legacy of noble Christian example which is to be valued more than an earthly es tate. May the memory of this noble hus band and kind, considerate father be as a benediction to our lives. By A SON. METHODIST SERVICES. Sunday, Mardh 20. (Psalm Sunday) 10:20 A. M.
