V .
lii Book Sermon Series at the Method
ist Church.
The pastor of the Methodist church,
Rev. L. W. Collins, is preaching a se
ries of hook sermons at the Sunday
night services during the summer
months, which is creating wide-spread
attention. On the coming Sunday
night, one of the best of recent pro
ductions will he given, “The Princess
Salome, a tale of the days of camel
bells” by Burriss Jenkins. Many of the
new testament characters are woven
into* the story, Paul, Stephen, Mary
of Bethany, Herod and Salome in such
a way as to make them more real than
■ they have ever been to the Bible stu
dent. It is a story that Is full of tre
mendous lessons, told in such a way as
not soon to be forgotten. The Sunday
school and morning service will he held

pledge hammer. This promises to be
interesting if not tragical. But hi
aiHl time the rougher they are
the better we like them. Eastville has
a go/d team and the local boys will
need”"your help.
This afternoon being a half holidy
it is hoped to have a good crowd at
this game.

and THE BARROW TIMES
TUESDAY, CLEANUP
DAY WAS OBSERVED
Tuesday of this week was designated
as clean-up day in Winder by the City
officials and a number of the ladies who
are interested in civic cleanliness.
A number of vacant lots within the
fire limits were cleaned of rubbish and
hauled away improving the looks and
the sanitary condition as well, but there
are a number of places yet that could
be improved, and it would take several
days to clean up all vacant lots and
alleys as they should be. However, a
great deal has been accomplished and
it should not be another 12 months be
fore another effort is made along this
line.
There is a tendency of there being
some little sickness round about and
all premises should be kept clean and
in a perfectly sanitary condition.
FARMERS WINNING
IN WEEVIL FIGHT
Mr. It. L. Rogers, of tins city,
brought to this office Monday full
grown cotton bolls which showed no
signs of ever having been in the boll
weevil infested section. Mr. Rogers
has used calcium arsenate under gov
ernment supervision and says he has
no bol- weevils in his cotton. He has
a great deal of faith in tli use of cal
cium arsenate and says it is the cot
ton raisers redemption. He began the
use of it when his cotton was a-t an
early stage of growth and thinks the
cost of the arsenate will not be more
than $3.00 per acre.
Many of our farmers are using pois
on. traps and other devices, and are
making progress along the lii\e of com
"rntfing the pest. It is likely that Bar
row will make 12,000 bales this year.

THE s7e7COLLEGE
PLANS EXPANSION
Since the reorganization of South
eastern Christian College at Auburn iu
May 1922, plans have been perfected
for establishing there an Industrial Col
lege that will answer a real need in
this section and also have a great in
fluence upon the business of our.town.
Several new departments have been
added that will be in operation this
coming year. The department of Com
merce and Domestic Science are new
features that are very attractive. The
plans for the industrial work will not
all be realized this year, but a good
start will be made. Sueli establish
ments as a shoe shop, laundry and
woodworking plant will be in operation
this coming year and as the work pro
gresses new features will be added.
In order to carry out these plans
arrangements must be made to take
care of the students that attend the
college. For that reason anew dor
mitory has been planned that will ac
commodate about seventy-five students.
A campaign is starting this week to
rais he money necessary for carrying
the project over.
If we stop to consider what a college
means to the section in which it is lo
cated we cannot fail to offer our co
operation in getting the work under
way. In consideration of what the
future Southeastern will be the people
of Winder would la* aiding a worthy
cause and doing a patriotic thing for
our city if they offered their support to
this campaign.

The Winder Pure Milk
Dairy Has Its Official
Dairy Score Card As
Claimed in Issue 29l
The dairy score card bearing the
signature of the State Dairy Inspect
or may be seen at the Winder Pure
Milk Dairy by any one wishing to see
it.
It is composed of 29 requirements,
each requirement counting from 1 to 5*
points, making a total of KM). Every
dairy in Georgia is scored by these re
quirements and notes thereon.
Our dairy score card shows a perfect
score not only on the three requirements
mentioned in Winder News of June -•*<
U>22, but on 14 others, making 17 per
fect scores out of the 29 and giiiug us
71 points of the KM) WI l'l 101 T ONE
RESTRIt TI()N attached.
At the bottom of the dairy score card
are the following notes:
Xote I.—‘lf any filthy condition is
found, particularly dirty utensils, the
total score shall be limited to 49.”
Note II.—“If the water is exposed
to dangerous contamination or there is
evidence of the presence of a dangerous
disease in animals or attendants the
score shall be 0.”
If Mr. Millsaps will read these notes
he will see the REASON that was sat
isfactory to the Inspector for not scor
ing his dairy!
In my articles In the News I have
not dealt in personalities, but I have
tried to arouse the public to the neces
sity of pure milk. Pure milk is pro
duced only where certain sanitary con
ditions exist, not in dairies that can
not score.
We produce the only milk sold in
Winder that comes up to the State re
quirements.
Our aim is to build up in Winder an
A grade dairy and we are going to
wards the 100 ‘mark.
Demand our milk.
It is the best.
Yours truly,
J. W. SAUNDERS.
For the Winder Pure Milk Dairy.

REV. W. H. FAUST
WRITES FROM CITY
Says Competition is Keen in The Great
Metropolitan City and That If You
Have Friends You Must Be
Friendly.
A familiar quotation going the
rounds relative to Atlanta is "They all
come here sooner or later.”
Little did the writer think three
months ago that he would be a resident
of Atlanta so soon. Born and reared
in thf* country I had grown to feel that
I would always live in God's country,
and so I am.
Some Impressions of Atlanta.
I. Bigness.
One is almost appalled at the size of
the city and one of the beauties of At
binta is every single one of its citizens
,'feels that It is tlie biggest city In the
land.
Its bigness doesn't consist alone in
its size and material possessions, but
in its spirit.
From Ingleide to East Point eovers
some space to be sure and the teeming,
twisting, toiling thousands of toilers
naturally make it big—ln fact stngger
ing.
11. Friendly.
In business, social and ecclesiastical
circles friendliness characterize the
city.
In the small town the grouch can get
by with indifference and unconcern,
but here competition is so sharp that
it requires all the best elements of a
vital manhood to put things across,
and the scriptural truth holds good.
“He that hath friends must show him
self friendly.”
Never anywhere will one find more
of the spirit of friendliness manifested
than in this metropolitan city.
Just a concrete illustration: My wife
said to me as we arrived and com
menced our new work: “We’ll miss the
friendly visits and poundings we re
ceived in the country and small downs.”
The conversation had scarcely ended
when in flocked a multitude laughing,
joking and literally took possession of
our home, and filled everything up from
big country horns to 50 lb. sacks of
sugar. A regular friendly, country,
Christian welcome, visit. The first
morning I preached, this question was
asked: “How many people in the con
gregation horn and renred outside At
lanta hold up your hands.” Fully 05
per cent lifted their hands. Atlanta is
a friendly city.
HI. Its Progressiveness.
Up-to-date in everything. Progressive
ness and aggressive—Sometimes sec
tions anti cities are too slow to put off
the old and put on the new. Sometimes
cities lose by lwing too quick to take
up that which is new. Atlanta seizes
upon the physicological moment and
grasps opportunity by the forelock and
improvements are going forward on
every side. Just now one of the great
est building programs that is being
put on by any Southern city Is on here.
Atlantans may differ about various
men and measures, hut it is a unit
when it comes to putting Atlanta to
the fore.
IV. Its Ixive for Churches.
A visitor meets churches mi almost
every corner and the membership of
the various local organizations are
very strong numerically and spiritual
ly. The person who thinks that all of
the old fashioned religion is locuted in
rural churches has a lots of things to
think there. Some of the noblest, moat
self-sacrificing Christians, and some of
our very best workers are located in
the cities. i
And the people go to church too. A
fine spirit of co-operation is manifest
among the churches. It is an indescrib
ably blessed experience to inept week
ly with the pastors of the city and have
fellowship with them on Blue Mondays.
Successful Preachers.
Ail denominations have their pulpits
manned with the very best equipped
pastors. The Baptists have a great
variety and when in tlie city one can
hear any sort of preaching from the
kind done by the writer to the superb
men like Dr. F. C. McConnell and Hen
ry Alford Porter.
V. Financially.
Nothing needs to be said along this
trend. Atlanta is known throughout the
(nation for its success in (his realm.
At all times we will be glad to have
our friends visit our church and home
at 439 Lucile Ave.
