BUDGET BYBTBM WOULD
BENEFIT WINDER.
The city council .of La Grange
is to adopt u budget Kystem for
city expenditures during the yv;ir
J 921. v
Begulur woekiy meetings of the
city fathers will be Lehl through
out the year and all departments
of the city government will be re
iuired to make statements of their
requmnenta at their next meeting,
when the final touifhes will be put
on the 1921 budget.
Strict economy is to be the
.slogan for operations during the
year.
The budget system would be of
great benifit to Winder with rigid
-supervision of expenditures, and
should be adopted by - our city
authorities.
STRANGE INNOVATIONS
FOR CHURCHES
Innovations are taking place
tbe-e days, but some of the
churches, it seems, are going to the
extreme and making the house of
the Lord more a place of frolic and
amusement than u place to wor
ship and cultivate the spiritual
part of man.
They seem to lose sight of the
fact that the very methods being
adopted destroy the intent and
purpose of the church and lessen
the respect and reverence for its
sanctity and sacred worship.
The object of the church is to
reach the hearts and consciences
of iri<=n and wom*n, arouse them
to o sense of their obligations to
n supreme being, to the God who
gave them life and who sent His
only son into the world to suffer
and die on the cross for the atone
ment of the sins of the world.
it w."s not intended to Im* a place
rf amusement for all kind oi
games and for dancing schools,
all of which detract and draw the
mind away from sacred things.
This comes to us from reading
a Chicago nows item of recent
date in which the Rev. W. R. Mc-
Donough, pastor of the Campbell
Park Presbyterian church of that
city tells w hat the church needs in
his opinion. His church has a
club house, gymnasium, occasion
al oyster supper, bazaar, amuse
ment, DANCING, singing and ath
-1 tics.
New seme of these things may
not be hurtful or out of place in a
church, hut we cannot dismiss the
belief from our mind that whew
the church adopts all the worldly
amusements it has lost its real
spiritual influence, lias accom
plished about all it can for the es
tablishment of tho Kingdom of
God on earth and had as well go
Hit of business.
Bspci hilly may this bo said con
cerning dancing. It is an accom
plishment desired by society de
votee who care more for society
and the pleasure of danrting t v "
they do for the advancement and
building up of the church.
Out of a million dancers, w* se
riously doubt if a half dozen e<. v.ld
be found .w ho would claim that it
strengthened their spiritual ideal*,
made them think more of their
Creator and increased their lovo
and loyalty to the church.
Of one thing we are Hure, that it
u better for the church to let the
preacher accompany tlio youvg
people to the ballromma and join
in the dancing than to allow the
dance* in the church. This would
oon allow them to have a more
consecruted pastor and the dan-

WHAT HAVE I TO SHOW?
Editor Times
I noticed an advertisement of
tlie Winder National Bank last
week asking the question, v, hat
mve you to show for 1920?
It was no} addressed to any
special one and I would like to
ell you what I have to show.
Iking a farmer, not what, per
laps you would call an up-to-date
and progressive farmer, but have
managed to make ends meet and
with the exception of 1914 and
1920 have always com*- out a lit
tle ahead.
In reviewing the past year I can
how you that we had more rain
than any year in our knowledge,
making it harder and more expen
sive to make a crop. Also that*
most everything needed to make a
< rop cost more than ever before
and the price of cotton such as
we will not pay expenses.
So in summing up, we have not
bought an automobile had no elec
tric or acetylene lights, no water
works, no improvement on build
ings on farm, no new furniture in
the house, stock one year older,
tools with one year s use, band
that, furnished the crop perhaps
as good as it was last spring,
with as much corn as the mules
and family consumed last year, as
much meat as needed for family,
and other things to cat except
flour, sugar and coffee, and with
all our efforts have paid guano
note, ginning, bagging and ties and
taxes and show a deficit in the a
mount of money on hand now and
at this time last year.
If all my cotton was sold I
would not bo in as good shape' fi
nancially as a year ago, with noth
ing for our labor, nor interest on
investment.
As 1 sec it thi: is what 1 can show
and this is ah- ut the shape of all
Southern farmers.
