Mea- THE BARROAV TIMES GET READY FOR 1920 AND 1930 There will he more building in AA'inder this year than for the past two or three. The people want to come here and the only way they can come is to build more houses. 1920 is census year and if every man who can, will build one or two more houses our population hv that time will run to over 4500. Would ’nt it be great if we could reach 5000 in 1920.’ It can be done if every man will do his duty, get a move on him, talk AA'in der, work for AA'inder and all pull together. If we can do this, by 1930 we will have 10.000 population. By the way, it will not take 1930 long to get here and let’s begin right now to look ahead a few years and plan for big things. The man who' never gets beyond the pres ent year, cannot see very far, and it would be a dificult matter for him to recognize the three or four skyscrapers that will be here by 1930. Talk AA’inder, LAWYER AND FARMER. Col. Lewis C. Russell believes in being a big lawyer and a big farmer and puts energy in both of these. On his fine farms in Barrow and Hall counties-he runs fifty plows and between his law and farms he is a busy man and A hustler. If he ever finds the time to think about marrying he will be a busy man sure enough with three professions to look after. COR. EMORY L. WHITLEY BACK. Corporal Emory L.
