Grubb and Rev. L. W. Collins both made splendid talks at the dinner hour. We were glad to have with us Dan Magill, the city editor of the new Athens Daily News. 1 We would like to hear a “Jint spute" between John Holder and George Ituoker on that Bible reading question. , C .#'* ' I -je . *• ’ jack Patterson ate two dinners and made 2 speeches on the occasion which U not up to his usual stand ard. Jack must have been sick. We regret that Editor Sutlive, of the Savannah Press, could not be with us. Hope to get him at a later date. The Ninth District boys appreciate the kind invita tion of Editor Davidson to meet in Cleveland. Well accept that invitation for uext summer. Col George A. Johns and Col. W. H. Quarterman and Mr. I.el* Radford sustained admirably the reputation of Winder people as at'er dinner speak, rs Ye editor appreciates the splendid co-operation he received by the the people of Winder in caring for the visitors. Winder knows how to do things right. One of the best speeches of the occasion was made by Claud Mayne. He pointed out quite forcibly some of the valuable manufactured products of W inder. Postmaster MeCants must have thought that some of his creditors were present when he denied so vocif erously the assertion that he was just loaded down with money. All the boys were disappointed in not having Bro. Townsend of Dahlonega, with us. We deputize Harve Craig, of Gainesville, to go over and escort him to Gainesville in December. Mrs. Sharpe and Mrs. Quarterman both made splen did addresses at the luncheon hour, while Mrs. Thomp son delivered one of the best speeches we have ever heard on the subject she handled at the morning hour. “Shack” of Lexington, made a good speech at the dinner Friday, but not as good as that speech he made on Broughton street in Savannah at the state press meeting when he was trying to prove the su periority of “Mountain Dow" over “Savannah Ale.” We were delighted to have the boys of the Eighth district with us last Friday. Camp of Monroe: Cald well, Bacon, Shackelford, Camp, of Watklusvllle; Ma gill, Ayers, with Mrs. Bacon and Mrs. Shackelford, favored us with their presence. No finer people live in the good old state of Georgia. O Winder Public Schools are getting down to business in fine order. 0 While you are selling your cotton don’t forget that small amount you owe the News ou subscription. O Old King Cotton has become aroused and is show ing the folks that he is still on the job. O That was a good speech that Mayor Bagwell made at the meeting of the Ninth District editors last Fri day. He pleaded guilty to the charge of being the handsomest man in town. O The Eighth District editors will meet in Athens Saturday. We are going over. The Eighth District hoys are a fine lot and we enjoyed their visit to Win der last Friday. O A heading in the Winder News reads. “Every Voter Should Express Himself at the Ballot.” Wonder what McWhorter is going to do with the “Uerselves?” He must remember that the women are voting these .lays.—Lavonia Times. It is understood and well known that the women will express themselves. We were appealing to the laggards and careless. Verily My son, if thou would'st get silver, yea, and much fine gold, hide not thy goods under a bushel, nor set them out upon the side-walk and right in the way of good men, iest thy customers be filled with sudden fear and come not near thee, but go thou to the ad vertising manager of thy local newspaper, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes; Incline thine ears unto him. and apply thy heart to understanding, for out of his mouth cometh knowledge and sound wis dom. These shall be health to thy navel and marrow to thy bones; for he shall teach thee in the way of advertising and lead thee in the right path. So shalt thy store be filled with customers, and thy cash reg ister burst out with new money. Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, for he straightway getteth advertising.—W. A. 8., with apol ogies to King Solomon. O It’s Up to Winder The time has come when the only salvation of the agricultural industry of this country lies in diversifi cation. Much has been said in the past about the ne cessity of changing our system of farming, but the question Is right up before this section now. What are we going to do about it. The farmers are ready to diversify, but what guar antee have they that they can sell their products. There is no market for anything in Winder except cotton, save of a local nature. It is up to Winder to consider the establishment of a market here foe other products if we want to assist in the future progress of our county and section. Even if cotton continues to advance in price, what can we hope for if the boll weevil destroys the crop every year? The business activities of our city will be destroyed unless we prepare to handle the other products that the farmers may desire to grow. Athens is preparing to build warehouses and ele vators in order to take care of corn, oats ami other products that may be grown by the farmers. If we sit still that city will become the market for those products and our business will be materially lessened. Winder is one of the best cotton markets in the state. Every year thousands of bales of the fleecy staple have been brought to this city from all over this section ou account of the splendid market that lias been maintained here. It is not the Minder spirit to sit down and let other cities outstrip her in furnishing splendid markets for our agricultural products. M’inder must arouse herself and by a spirit of co-operation arrange to have here the very best markets for all the products that the farmers may desire to grow. Our business men should get together and consider these things aud be ready to establish markets for all the products that will t>e grown by our farmers. O Notice to Our Subscribers On account of the stringency of money matters dur ing the spring and summer, we have carried many of our subscribers over until the fall and have cheer fully waited on them for payment. We are now in need of all this subscription money, and are expecting our subscribers to help us out in this matter promptly. The amount you owe us is small, but ull of these small amounts make a considerable sum to us. M> must collect it in order to meet our obligations. Look on the label on your paper, and you can tell when your time expired. For instance, “John Smith, 23apr„l, means that John Smith’s subscription expired on April 23. 1921, and he is due us ou subscription from that time. Look on your label and if you are behind come in promptly and help us. Me want to collect up these back subscriptions by October Ist. Me have been accommodating you and we feel sure that our readers are willing now to accommodate us. M'e are expecting you to help us. O A carload of potatoes was recently received in At lanta that cost $215. The freight bill was $305. In other words when you buy SI.OO worth of potatoes you get only 40 cents worth of potatoes and 00 cents worth of freight. Can business stand up under this ar rangement? ' • • • WHAT IS CHIROPRACTIC?
