Highway Development
In the State of Georgia.
The Manufacturers Record Issue of
September 21st. has a most Interesting
article on “Highway Bridge Construc
tion in Georgia'’ which will be read by
~many, who will then realize possibly
for the first time, what our state is
doing for better highways. In speak
ing of bridge construction the article
sayft in part:
“These bridge developments involve
the expenditure of many millions of
dollars, and serve to put the finishing
touches to the important work of build
ing main highways designed as arter
ies of travel between hitherto widely
separated sections. Their social value
is thus not an unimportant factor.
“Such bridges frequently bring to
gether the people of two or more coun
ties which formerly had to communi
cate commercially largely by rounda
bout and more costly methods of trav
el. In the state of Georgia last year
were completed 1000 miles of road, fine
seventh of the total expenditures for
bridges in the T'nited States in which
Federal aid funds participated has
been expended in Georgia.”
Of particular interest to the people
of this section is that in the twelve
pictures of bridge construction shown,
two are in our immediate vieinity; one
being fhe bridge over the Appalachee
river in Walton county between here
and Monroe, and one the bridge over
Oconee creek, Clarke county, between
here and Athens.
In connection with the recent visit
of the Bankhead Highway officials and
the fact that one of Winder’s citizens
is on the official Board of this Associa
tion. this article should prove of partic
ular interest to Barrow county.
Copies of the Manufacturers Record
will be found on file at the Chamber of
Commerce which will be loaned to any
one wishing to read the article noted
above.

THE WINDER NEWS
MR. E R. MAYNARD
WRITER AGAIN
Well, I sold my first cotton Septem
ber 18th, and applied every dollar I
could on my indebtedness. Now, that
is exactly what every farmer should
do as soon as he gets a bale of cotton
if the price is reasonable. A bale of
cotton will bring SIOO. We farmers
should take that money and pay the
merchant and the banker who have
made it possible for us to make any
crop at all, then they in turn can pay
the local hank and the wholesaler who
can! then pay the larger bank and
thereby relieve the strain.
One hundred dollars may pay SI,OOO
if thus passed on rapidly. Just think
what a help it would be to those we
owe if every mau in Barrow county
would place the amount of one hale of
cotton on his indebtedness on October
Ist. That would mean two or three
hutldred thousand dollars for the banks
and merchants to ease up on. It
would put a smile on their faces that
would not come off.
The average farmer does not realize
the awful strain and financial emhar_
rassment of the average merchant and
country hank. We should hasten to
their rescue and pay every cent possi
ble, then have heart to heart talk. We
should be able to make satisractory ar
rangements until we can pay more.
Yes, we should pay our merchant,
banker, preacher, editor and all others
whomsoever we may owe as soon as
possible. If there is any manhood left
in us, we will at least meet our cred
itors on halfway ground, and not wait
for them to wear out their cars, the
roads and a vast amount of shoe leath
er tryiDg to make collections that we
could so easily attend -to. Don’t try
to dodge the merchant by walking a
block or two out of your way. Meet
him face to face. Look him straight
in the eye. Don’t sneak off to a neigh
boring town with your cotton, sell it
and put the money in your pocket to
heat the man you owe. If you do, ver
ily you shall have your reward.
These are perilous 'times through
which we are passing. Men are tempt
ed to take advantage of their neigh
bors. We should ever he on the alert
lest we yield to temptation and thus
forever disgrace ourselves in the sight
of God and man, besmirch our charac
ter and lose our good name. “A good
name is rather to he chosen than great
riches.” We need a genuine revival
