S1.00 PER YEAi CARROLLTON, GA., THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1923 CARROLL COUNTY TO HAVE A POULTRY SHOW At a rocent meeting of the Advertis ing Club a resolution wns passed that a poultry show be held in Carrollton some time in the fall. Suitable prizes will be offered, and all poultry raisers will be invited to mnke exhibits of their poultry, and otherwise lond their good will and encouragement towards mak ing the show a suce,oss. The success of this show depends more upon the co-operation of poultry / raisers and the people generally than any other one thing. No poultry raiser should lenvo himself or hersolf out. Everything and everbody should bo in terested in the show, and take part in it, by at least visiting the show if notli- ig more. In no other way can the show fully represent the county and territory. It takes work to develop a good poultry show. All great and good things' come through and by good work. Lot’s start now and have every poultry raisers, and prospective poultry miser, begin to prepare to mnke an ex hibit nt the show. Tho greatest, good to tho individual exhibitor is the knowl edge gained while raising and preparing fowls for the exhibit nnd the thoughts ' anil ideas gained from others. The next greatest good comes from com paring his fowls, or her fowls, with those of others. , Cash prizes will bo paid winners according to decision of the judges; but tho promiuV or prize one gels is a little more than an ac knowledgement of superiority, and the further advertising of one’s flock and variety. This is to be a big show nnd let s everybody get bohind tho movement and pusli it to a big success. ..Many bauds make light work. Let every one do something to mnke the show a sac- cess.

HARVEY li. TISIXGER. By John D. Rockefeller The Standard Oil king was asked how to become rich. He'said: “I should advise any young man to look after his pennies and attend strictly to business for several years, winning the good opinion of his friends and neighbors. “He will then not only have the monied capital, but the ‘backing,’ as it were, of his people. “I do not believe in great wind-falls, experience to the contrary notwithstanding. “Nor do I think that people get wealthy without economy in early, life; it is then they begin to sow seed for future harvest. “Money so quickly begets money.” Start a bank account and stive money systemati cally.
