To Baptist Churches In Bleckley And Pulaski Christmas times are about here, and we shall be remembering our various friends and loved ones with gifts of more or less value. It is a good time for us v to remember the words of the Master, who said: “When thou makest a dinner or supper call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, nor thy rich neighbors: lest haply they also bid thee again, and a recompense be made thee. But when thou makest a feast, bid the poor, the mained, the lame the blind: and thou shalt be blessed ‘ because they have not wherewith to recompense thee; for.thou shalt be recompensed in the resurrection of the just.” Now the Master probably did not mean that we are not to ever invite our friends to feasts, but rather that we are to expect no heavenly rec ompense for doing it. On tl e other hand, whenever we give those who are not able to help themselves or to pay us back again, God keeps the account and becomes our pay master. One suggestion for these Christ mas times is that we remember the widows and orpliE ns in our several communities. See that there are no empty stockings nor bare pan tries. Let us all be able to make the boast of Job, “I have not eaten my bread alone,” Moreover as Churches affiliated with the Georgia Baptist Conven tion, we must remember that at the Georgia Baptist Orphan’s Home, at Hapeville, we have 250 or more children who are the wards of our denomination. The home has been forced to go into debt for cur rent expenses during the last few months, and now the time to settle has come. This letter is by way of suggestion to you that individuals and churches of our association will give Christmas gifts to the Orphans’ Home. It is easy to raise money for the orphans. Old “tight wads”, who gives nothing to any thing else, will listen and respond to the cry of the orphan, l*ecause even misers have hearts down un der their jackets if we can only get to them. All that is needed in any church or community is for some consecrated man or women to take the matter up and raise a collection for the orphans. Who will be the one to undertake it in your church? Shall it be you. A barrell or two of syrup from some well to do farmer would help to sweeten the orphan’s lot. Supplies should be send to The Georgia Baptist Orphans’ Home,' Hapeville, Ga. Money should be sent to Dr. J. J. Benneet, Chandler Building, Atlanta, Ga. Be sure to keep a list of values so as to enter it upon your church letter next fall. Yours truly, Chas. L. Greaves, Corresponding Sec. Pulaski Asso. Cold Storage Plant For Cochran Now is the time to begin to think about a cold storage plant for Coch ran and Bleckley County. For a nominal sum a plant can be erected that will save our meat? Last year alone the farmers of this county lost enough meat to more than pay for a cold storage plant. With a little effort and enterprise, we beleive a stock company could soon be form ed for this purpose, and at the same time they could have in view the building of an ice plant in con nection with the cold storage plant. Some of our most progressive far mers are making arrangements to fight the cattle ticks. They are al so preparing to innoculate their hogs to prevent hog cholera. This is all very encouraging. It means more meat will be raised in Bleckley County and it is absolutely neces sary that arrangements be made to take care of this meat. Lets have & cold storage plant. The Great Clean Sweep Sale Wednesday, Dec. 10th, the open ing daj of the great Clean Sweep Saleof J. J. at enen dous success. We doubt if there has ever been a greater trading day in the history of Cochran, barring perhaps Christmas eve. The city was-simply running over with peo ple and the trading was general all over town. Every merchant here reports a splendid trade. From the minute the doors of the store of J.J. Taylor were opened the house was crowded and jammed al most up to the time of its close. People came here from the territory of Dublin. Dexter, Chester, Jeffer sonville, Danville, Empire, Hawk insville and Eastman and no doubt in the world that this great sale will draw people that would have gone to Macon. This sale was a benefit to every business interest in this city. It drew and will continue to draw great crowds that would have sought for bargains at other places. There is no senMment in business. The people are going where they can get fhe goods and the prices. If inducements to trade are not of fered in Cochran the people will go to the other places to get them. No mistake about that. The policy of the up-to-date city and the en terprising merchant is to keep in the public eye and draw the people to their places of business. Straight forward legitimate adver tising will draw the crowd and when the crowd comes the mer chant has an opportunity to sell. Is it not a fact that if there was some concentrated effort to keep the public eye on this town and some constant inducement to encourage people to come here instead of leav ing our territory that it would be beneficial to all business interests? Why are people coming here from outside territory? Because great bargains by an old reliable mer chant were offered and the people Were reached by ten thousand cir culars and two full page ads in the Cochran lournal telling them about it. A Unique Plan of Advertising We desire to call special attention to the advertisement of Walker’s Pharmacy in this issue of the Coch ran Journal. From now until Dec 24th, they will give six months subscription to the Cochran Journal to all who spend $5.00 in cash with them. This is absolutely a voluntary offer that we knew nothing about until we saw it in the advertise ment. We feel very much gratified that this enterprising and loyal firm thinks enough of their home paper to voluntary offer it as a prize to their customers. We of course wish them much success and will appreciate any aditicnal subscrip tion we may secure in this way, but far above the additional subscrip tion we appreciate the fact that one of our merchants was loyal to his home paper and valued it high enough to offer it as aa inducement to early Xmas purchasers.
