county prior to January 1 a total
of 2,342 T>ales of cotton, compared
with 4,09? bales the same date the
previous year.

bales in 1922, as compared with

Flowers for the living are better
than flowers for the dead. This, in
a large measure, explains the
growth of civic organizations like Ro
tary, Kiwanis and others. These or
ganizations be’.ieve in helping when
help is needed.

PASTOR WILL PREACH TO
CHILDREN AND YOONG PEOPLE
On next Sunday morning the
pastor of the Methodist church,
Rev. Henry H. Jones, will preach
his second of the monthly sermons
to the children. The subject will
be “The Strongest Man in the
World.” Every boy and girl of
Jackson is cordially invited to attend.
Parents are urged to come with
their children. Each third Sunday
morning of this conference year
the pastor will preach especially to
the children. This does not mean,
that grown folks are not cordially
invited, for they are. The only dif
ference betv.oen the children’s ser
vice and any other is that at the
service for the children the pastor
endeavors to simplify the message
and bring it within reach of the
child mind.
At the evening service the pas
tor will speak on “Nehemiah and
the people rebuilding the walls of
Jerusalem. How they did it.” Ev
ery member of the Methodist church
is urged to be present at this ser
vice. The message is one that the
entire membership should hear.
Methodists, get the habit. What,
habit? Why, the envelope habit.
One hundred and ten envelopes
came in last Sunday. Let’s make
it one hundred and fifty next Sun
day. Bring your envelope with

Without Lost Motion
A big part of the cost of living today may be
charged to lost motion, to slow, slipshod distri
bution of goods, and to old-fftyle,. wasteful selling
methods.
For example, every year tons of
fruits and vegetable rot on the ground,
because it doesn’t pay to pick them.
( Discouraged growers plant less the next
season, and the supply of food is redu
ced. Meanwhile, consumers in the cit
ies nearby grumble over high prices.
Demand and supply are not brought to
gether.
Contrast this with the handling of or
anges; $1,000,000 a year is spent for ad
vertising by the co-operative associa
tion of the California Fruit Growers.
A large sum; yet it is only about one-fifth
of a cent per dozen —one-sixtieth of a
cent for each orange sold.
And this advertising has kept down
the cost of oranges —and insured a bet
ter product.
Advertising, properly done, saves money
for the consumer and makes money for the pro
ducer by driving out wasteful methods, increas
ing volume and cutting down the costs of sell
ing and distribution.
