Will Speak to Junior Order Me
chanics at Methodist Church
Sunday Afternoon.
Rev. A. E. Sansburn, pastor of
the Methodist church at Eaton
ton ,Ga., and grand master of the
Junior Order of Mechanic* I, will
deliver an address to the local
branch of that order at the Metho

421 Enrolled in Winder School
Winder’s Public School started
off the second week with 421 pu
pils answering roll call, and if
there ever was a school building
overrun with children, that school
building is the proud possession
of the progressive little city of
Winder.
lit is positively dangerous to
crowd* this old death-trap as
she is being crowded today. Re
gardless of the tardiness of our
cby fathers! in the school building
matter. we have the blessed assur
ance that in a very short time
dire necessity will force them to
act or run up the sign “Stand
ing room on the top only.’’ Some
of the rooms are already crowded
almost to suffoeaion, 61 pupils
breathing the same foul air in
one ordinary-sized room. Nc
teacher can do justice by these
many pupils, however proficient
she may be.
The Board of Education is not
to he blamed for this situation.
An additional teacher was pu +
on this term, and every available
space is taken. Superintendent
Tluffaker is now occupying the
auditorium with his work, while
music is alsb taught in one
corner of this room.
There is Tittle doubt that the
enrollment will be consider
ably increased during the next
month ,and what to do with the
children is becoming a serioud
question with the board and su
perintendent .
Winder people should awake
to the fact that she is neglecting
her greatest asset —the education
of her future men and women.
ThisJ relic of the piney woods
age should be torn down and a
school building in keeping with
our churches , stores and the
tinms should take ilspalee .
The hoard Will soon he face to
face with the room renting prop
osition, and the school will he
scattered and the work of the
-teachers less efficient.
What inducement, we ask, is
there for a man to move to this
city if there is no room in our
school for his children? If we
go forward, our school system
must go forward and our school
cannot keep pace with other
towns without plenty of room
and good teachers. We have the
teachers—as good as any town in
all Georgia—and it is np to
the people of Winder to furnish
facilities for them to deilver the
goods.
Gentlemen of council, begin the
planning right now for the con
struction of a school building in
the summer of IM4.
THE PRICE OF COTTON
President First National Bank
Speaks to Public About
Banking Relations
Just at this period of the year
all of us are interested in the
price of cotton, very naturally so,
for the reason that we all depend
On the cotton crop for our living.
If the crop is good we are glad
if the price is good w.e are enthu
svis ic over our condition . It is
right We should he. There are
many tilings that have to do
with the price of cotton, there
are a few things that affect us
materially whether the price is
good or bad .or whether the crop
is good or Had. Every man
should look into his own business
career and determine the things
that are aiding or hindering his
bucess. We do not th’nk that
there is a single element enter
ing a man’s businesfe career thR
is more vital to him than his
banking relations. We make the
statement with a pardonable
pride that we have cared for our
customers in a way that has been
entirely satisfactory to them.
They have not had to hear in five
sparing, or mid summer or early
fab the Statement that we could
not accomodate you thou aft wo
would he glad to do so if it were
.possible. We have not refused
to loan a single one of our custo
mers money where a note wus of
fered that was! satisfactory. And
we believe this ik +he reason that
our business has do wonderful L
increased. Would it not he

Ccttctn Center cf This

That this city is recognized as
a leading cotton center and one
of the best markes in the cotton
! belt is demonstrated by the fact

Two of tlie reasons for thu| is
the fact that the staple of cot-'
ton grown in this section is of a
very fine grade .and much in de
m uni, and the fact that the coun
ties surrounding Winder are the
m ist prolific in production of any
in the cotton states and this
always assures the farmer of the
| very best price for his cotton in
the Winder market. This fJeason
there are many firms and individ
uals buying some of whom are:
W. A. Brooks, representing Es
teve Bros., Savannah; O. O. Nib
