put him on notice now that we will be present by a
big majority, and will bring along several renowned
eaters.
Cleveland is nestled up among the mountains of
White county, and the day can lie made a most de
lightful outing to every editor in the district. .So

Drive Ahead.
Two things move the world—
They are faitli and courage.
You need faitli in yourself—
Faith in your surroundings —-
Faith in your town — ,
Faith iu your neighbors—
Faith in your business —
Faitli in the rightness of the scheme of things—
You need courage—
The will and determination to go forward,
The will to dare.
All the world loves a tighter.
The rewards of this life came not to the slacker,
\he timid or the weakling.
They come to him who is able and willing to pay
the price—
They come to the man who is big enough and brave
enough to stand up and look the world in the eye—-
who is manly enough to make the sacrifice and do the
work necessary to win success —they ecme to him
who is willing to give full value for what he receives
ami will accept in no other way.
He who sits down and whimpers over the fickleness
-of Fortune will get nowhere.
There is but one thlug to do—
Rat the ball —
Bat it hard.
Htep on the gas!

Are You A Blotter?
Are you a Blotter?
A blotter always absorbs and never gives out any
thing. It Hbsorbs until it can absorb no more, and
then it is good for nothing. When it lias absorbed
all it will hold it is thrown away, or should be, l*e-
CHiise It is no good for any purpose.
Some people in this world are just exactly like a
blotter. They are intelligent, resourceful, energetic,
truthful and honest but—SELFISH.
A real SELFIS person is no good nor benefit to the
world. H absorbs everything and everybody, but it
is all done for SELF.
A selfish person cannot enjoy life. He cannot enjoy
what he has absorbed because ho is miserable all the
time —afraid he will put out something accidentally
When he is gone there will be ‘‘no footprints on the
sands of time” and he will not be missed.
, His leaving this old world will be like sticking your
finger in a vessel containing water. No hole will be
left. Just a little ripple upon the surface—only that
and nothiug more.
The world is not better off for his having lived in
it—in fact no one is benefit ted by such a life.
Are you a blotter Are you living for your self?
Are you grasping and absorbing and not putting out
value received? If so, you nre not honest with your
aelf nor with the world.—From the Colquitt Sun.

Experience is a great teacher, but some of us go to
school all our lives.
A Remarkable Confession.
Not often does a man make an open confession in
his newspaper that he has been living an untruth.
But Robert Quillen, editor of the Fountain Inn (8. C.)
Tribune, recently made such a confession in his pa
per. It is worth reproducing.
“Of all the hard work in the world, that of making
a public confession is the hardest. But it is the only
square thing to do, so It must be done This, therefore,
Is an open letter to the young fellows of Fountain
Inn —the good fellows’ I have taken drinks with and
fellowshipped with.
“All this while I have been a member of the church
—just that and nothing more. And when my con
science bothered me about taking a drink when I could
get it, I said to myself: ‘Why, I am a liberal supporter
of the church. I pay the tithe; I am a gentleman
and a man of intelligence; there’s no harm in my tak
ing a drink when I want it, for I can handle it.’
“I said that, but I was a liar. And while posing
as a member of the church and follower of Christ,
and yet reserving the right to take a drink at my
pleasure, I was considerably lower down than a
snake’s Ixdly.
“This is a Hitter dose to swallow, fellows, but I had
it coming to me. And if my conduct has led any of
you to believe that a man can retain his honor
while carrying water on both shoulders, I want to
make it clear that it’s an impossibility.
“I’m through. I’m 34 years of age, and have never
struck a lick for my Lord. From now on I am His,
to use as He thinks best, and I’ll stick to Him if it
costs me everything I have and every friend I have.
“I'm ashamed, fellows. Forgive me for not having
been square.”
O
Made In Georgia Week.
There are fifty thousand women of the State Feder
ation of Women’s clubs, other patriotic women of the
state, and many men, who are working shoulder to
shoulder with the women in the great constructive
movement to benefit Georgia this week. It is the
“Made in Georgia” campaign that is being waged all
over the state.
This “Made in Georgia Campaign,” was most time
ly, and has been so clearly demonstrated by the en
thusiasm which has been aroused throughout the
state, that it has been impossible to compute the
many celebrations which are taking place simulta
neously throughout the state this week.
The object of the campaign is to increase the in
terest of Georgians in the product of their state, to
correlate the work of various other organizations
working along similar lines, and especially to study
the problem, standardization and marketing of Geor
gia products, both agricultural and manufactured,'so
that the $">0,000,000 now being spent outside of Geor
gia, may be retained within the state, in the purchase
of Georgia products.
Reports from all parts of the state indicate suc
cess for the campaign, as manufacturing interests
write that they intend to enlarge their business as a
result of Increased interest and demand from Geor
gians.
Mrs. Newton C. Wing’s plan of using the organiza
tion of the State Federation has resulted in the ap
-0
pointment of a chairman for each congressional dis
trict, and under her a chairman for eaeh county,
and under the county chairman, a chairman for each
town and village in the county.
Mrs. W. M. Holsenbeck, of this city, has
appointment from Mrs. Hubert Yow, of Martin, pres
ident of the Ninth District Federation of Women’s
clubs, to act as chairman of the Ninth District in the
“Made In Georgia Campaign.” Mrs. Pike Hutchins, of
S tat ham, has been made chairman of Barrow county.
No woman in the county is more familiar with Bar
row than is Mrs. Hutchins, and we trust that the
women of the county are responding to the calls of
Mrs. Holsenbeck and Mrs. Hutchins in a way that
will mean success for the movement.
O
Editor Townsend failed to change the date on his
Nugget last week, and we thought he had sent us au
old copy. What Is he sleeping in these days.
O
We do not believe that Fatty Arbtickle will be able
to come back as a movie favorite for a number of
years. Though found not guilty, yet he was host at
a drinking carousal at which men and women were
present and one woman lost her life.

THE WINDER NEWS
FAUST WRITES OF
CONVENTION AND
THINGSEN ROUTE
On Wednesday morning in company
with Rev. W. S. Walker and wife, and
Jtev. John H. Webb, of Monroe, In the
latter’s Chalmers automobile, the writ
er headed towards Jaeks*(iville. It
rained and then rained some more.
The roads between Winder and Social
Circle and Macon were horrid, red
■mud and hills. From Macon to Doug
las they were fine with only a few lit
tle stretches from Douglas to Jackson
ville that were bad. We passed thru
the cotton belt all the way to the Flor
ida line and found cotton looking well,
larger the further south. From Gray
to Fitzgerald peaches were in evidence
fine crop, lots of them ripe and being
shipped. From Macon south many
truck farms, beans, cucumbers, squash
es, watermelons, cantaloupes, enough
melons to feed the world, fields of
them, acres of them, miles of them.
Goats and pine rooters were much in
evidence in South Georgia, and it
seemed that they had gathed on the
road for our special provocation. We
ran over one good sized pig. If he ev
en grunted we didn’t hear It, as the
car was heavy and going at pretty
good speed around the curve when he
decided to cross over.
The first night was spent in Doug
las, a beautiful little city with paved
streets and lovely homes. On every
side evidences of progress and pros
perity. In fact, if south Georgia were
not so flat and the homes so far apart
it would be the greatest country on
earth.
The scenery along the road was su
perb. The palms and ferns, the long
strait stretches of well-nigh perfect
highways, the great saw mills and the
turpentine stills, the peach packing
plants, the vegetable pickers, the long,
gray, moss-covered trees, the immense
stretches of water, we skirted the fa
mous Okefenokee swamp for miles, it
was all glorious to a north Georgian.
Jacksonville is a great city for tour
ists, in fact, we met numbers of north
ern tourists going home, but there are
yet thousands of them scattered all
Over Florida. The convention is in the
Billy Sunday Tabernacle. It is the
best place so far as seing, hearing and

body.

The Home Missioa Board, under the
efficient leadership of Dr. Gray though
greatly In debt reported a flue year of
growth.

F. Love, secretary, had one of the best
years of its history. The Annuity and

Great speeches, intense enthusiasm
pervaded the entire session. Dr. L. 8.

Truitt, of Texas, Dr. John Jeter Hurt,
of North Carolina, Dr. W. F. Powell,
of Nashville, Dr. B. D. Gray, of Atlan

a host of other eloquent and powerful
speakers too numerous to mention de
livered addresses sthat moved mightily
the masses.
Hon. Clifford Walker, Hon. W. I). Up
shaw and Dr. Lam G. Hardman were
anwng Georgia’s prominent laymen
and politicians present.
We rolled into Jacksonville Wednes
day around 11 o’clock. It is a city of
hotels, beautiful in every respect, lying
on the St. Johns river. Fish! Well,
there are so many fish that only a fish
tale would describe them.
Ft was a genuine joy to meet old
friends by the hundreds scattered over
the South. The attendance was larger
than in years except the Washington
(Convention, The ,Florida papefls re
ported 10,000 delegates and visitors in
the city.
Mrs. W. C. James again heads the
Woman’s work. The women were much
in evidence since they now have equal
ity on the boards and the floor of the
convention. It is the most intensely
democratic body on earth, and the wom
en rightly occupy a great place in it.
