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.

This afternoon being a half holidy it is hoped to have a good crowd at this game. ffl)€ ttKnfar Wem 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 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.

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. No. 14
