Butts county feels great pride
in the numerous noble young

has sent out of her borders to
bless the world.

noted preachers, physicians and
teachers, who are now filling
positions of honor and trust, not
only in Georgia, but in other
states and countries as well.
Among these we take the liberty
to mention an example that Is
being set by Cullen Thaxton.

was transferred from the Atlanta
post office v/here he had served
for six years, and where he had
filled various positions to the en
tire satisfaction of the officials
there and at Washington, to the
Postal service in Panama. He is
now postmaster at Tabernilla,
about mid way between the two
oceans, right on the Panama
Canal.
Besides keeping all the money
iie needy for nimseu, he is send
ing to his father, Mr. D. J. Thax
ton, seventy-five dollars per
month for safe keeping and in
vestment.
Business and visiting cards a
specialty at the Progress office.
