Then you can fulfill them. % O Remember that when you kick you can’t pull, and when you are pulling you can't kick. O —- The old saying, "pay as you go," is a good one. If you can’t pay, don't go. O The Conyers Times says that the blond who inher ited six million dollars has her good points though she may be a flapper. O We congratulate Clark Howell, Jr., on being elect ed business manager of the Atlanta Constitution. Clark is one of tin* tinest newspaper men in the state, and is destined to forge to the top in newspaper work. O One Atlanta bank spends $50,000 per year adver tising in the papers of that city. And it is one of the strongest and greatest hanking institutions in the state. The hank or merchant that* reaches the peo ple these days must advertise. It pays without a dould. O The islitor of the Camilla Enterprise tells a tale o£ a man returning home in his 4rd and ran into a covey of birds and killed four of them, says the Nashville Herald. This yarn makes the editor of the Nashville Herald envious and he says lie is looking for a real yarn when fishing season opens up. Don't get en vious. Kelly, lie hasn't touched your “inter” yarn yet. O Ye editor hasn’t been home since tin* day before Christmas. The flu removed our “bay window” and can’t walk well without it.

O Tiie judge lias issuel a restraining order in Atlanta to kivp a woman from talking about her husband to ■lie* members of his church. Now, hasn’t the officers got a job?---Dahlonega Nugget. O Uncle John Shannon lias moved ills paper down next door to the First National Hank. That’s the best business stroke Uncle John ever made. To bo next door to a rfcal live progressive bank is one of the best ' assets for a weekly paper. Uncle John has left B. Ixird and It. Flat to tight it out with the sheriff i,. .. the tiesl way they can and lie’s taking refuge next ,-dmtr to the Imnk. Uncle John has been reading that jokecthat bus lieen going the rounds about the churches In a cert ain city. It was said of this town that the Synagogue was down by the bank, tln* Episcopalian church was down near the theater, the Baptist church was over by the creek, the Methodist church was up dost* to the gas plant and the Presbyterian church up close to the Ice Plant. Now Uncle John, don't fail to let the world know that you are down by the First National Bank." It would be a good idea to put it on your stationery in big typo. It is very essential that .people that you would buy from on credit know that you are next door to the bank.—Lavonia Times. O Cotton Factories in The South WE noticed a news item in the daily press recently from a North Carolina town which stated that northern cotton interests are ready to place In the south from 500,000 to 1,000,000 spindles, which at a conservative estimate would represent investments of tt least $100,000,000, if southern mill owners will agree to take over and operate the plants. Tliis proves that the south is not only to be great cotton growing section of the world, but that she is to manufacture this cotton into goods. Now is a mighty good time for Winder to get in touch with the cotton factories of the north and show how well sit naUsi we are for the cotton mill industry. This is a line subject for our new chamber of commerce to ®t*t interested in. . Seed Time and Harvest SEEEL) time for 1923 will soon be here. Farmers are already planning the acreage they will put in each crop. Each farmer should plan his opera tions year after year in such a way as to make for his financial independence. We can never become independent as long as it Is necessary for us to buy on credit. We should arrange to grow plenty of food during this year for man and beast. If we planted a good wheat and out crop last fall, well and good. These crops will help out wonderfully this year. A good acreage in corn this year, with plenty of hogs to kill next winter means food for all on the farm. A good garden should not be neglected, and an or chard of all kinds of fruits will help, wonderfully in making life pleasant on the farm. A good milk cow with plenty of chickens and eggs help wonderfully in furnishing the table with good, wholesome food. All of our food should be raised on the farm. Things that cannot he raised on the farm should lie bought with the products of the land. We should take no money from our cotton crop with which to buy food. After provisions have lieen made for plenty of food stuffs for the farm, then plant on good land as much cotton as can he cared for under boll weevil con ditions. Fertilize it well, work it fast, watch after the boll weevils, economize in every way possible, and resolve to get on your feet. We can do what we make up our minds positively to do. The News wishes every farmer in this section a great year. May you prosper and may tiie gloom that lias pervaded our section during the past two years be driven away by the determined and energetic efforts of us all. When We Do Our Best AS a rule, we never do our best until we face the worst. When conditions are good we never put forth our best efforts. Prosperity never pulls out of us our best thoughts, our greatest energy. It takes adversity to make a man do his best. And it must he the worst kind of adversity, too. The following story illustrates how it takes the worst to make a man do his best: A man was crossing a pasture when an infuriated hull rushed across the field to attack him. 14’ realiz ed that it would take fast running to reach the fence ,niid get over it before the mad beast caught him. He ran, and he thought he was doing ids best. After running a hundred yards, he looked back and saw that the hull was gaining on him and that he must run faster if he reached tiie fence in safety. He ran a little faster. Glancing back again he realized that he must run still faster to escape the mad animal. He ran faster still. When in about fifty yards of the fence lie began to feel the horns of the mad bull play ing with his coat tail. Not until then did he do his best. And he reached the fence in safety. Not many men, as we said before, are going to do their best until they face the worst. They must be crowed to the last notch. This is why adverse con ditions come. This is why we are confronted wita things that some times knock us down. However, we need not be discouraged. When we do our best we can always reach the pluce of safety ahead of the trouble. The great thing is to do our best. When men learn to do their best without being forced to do so, they are not so often placed in distressing circumstan ces. O Mrs. Marie Louise Myrick breaks a silence of fifteen years to say, that since practically all the negroes in ■Savannah voted for Seabrook, the independent, who defeated the nominee, it is now up to tiie said Sea brook to remember said negroes when juice is distrib uted. it takes a woman to Hit the nail right slap dab on tiie head.—Commerce News. Mrs. Myrick lias a son who was a strong supporter of Stewart for Mayor of Savannah. Of course she is soiv on account of Seal)rook's election. However, we think Savannah did a fine tiling when she kicked out the crowd that has been running things in that city for the past years. Many of the finest citizens of Sa vannah were behind Seabrook. , Service Talks People appreciate service. And we give it to them. That’s why our business is growing day by day. Our customers must be ast isfied. That’s our business. Our groceries and meats are the best and our prices are the lowest. For best goods lowest prices, good service trade with W. C.
