Miss Blanch Appleby At
Methodist Church
Jefferson Methodists had the rare
pleasure Sunday of hearing a re
turned missionary tell of her work
in the far East. Miss Blanche Ap
pleby, who has been a missionary to
the Chinese since 1911, arrived in
the States recently to spend her fur
lough with brothers and sisters and
other relatives; and being a guest in
the home of her cousins, the Misses
Moore, on Sunday, she was asked to
speak to the Methodist congregation.
Miss Appleby left China before
the beginning of the conflict be
tween that country and Japan.
Having spent so many years in
China and pioneering in many places
where no white woman had ever
lived, naturally her sympathy is with
the Chinese.
Miss Appleby is the youngest
daughter of the late W. C. and Mrs.
Fannie Harrison Appleby. She was
reared in Pendergrass, and attend
ed school at Martin Institute. In
early young womanhood, she chose
for her life work carrying the gospel
message to the people of foreign
lands, and since then has been a con
secrated worker among the Chinese.
Her work is sponsored by no organ
ization. She selects her own field
of labor, going wherever she feels
her work is most needed. Her finan
cial needs are met by voluntary con
tributions.
Those who heard her on Sunday
morning greatly enjoyed the mes
sage. All were impressed with her
sincere spirituality, and look for
ward to hear her at some future
date when she will have more time
to tell of her life among a foreign
people.
Jefferson in The Market to
Buy Cotton
Jefferson is proud of her ware
houses, which have all necessary
room and facilities for storing the
fleecy staple at minimum charges.
There are three warehouses in Jef
ferson: Carter’s, Farmers, and H. I.
Mobley, all under the management
of men who will give every ppssible
consideration to customers.
If, however, a farmer does not
wish to store, but to sell his cotton,
there is no better place to bring it
than to Jefferson.
Buyers are here whose great
pleasure and pride is to pay the top
of the market to cotton farmers.
Some of these buyers have been here
for many years in the cotton busi
ness. At Carter’s Warehouse is J.
Z. Carter; Farmers Warehouse, R.
S. Johnson; at Jefferson Mills, Au
brey Coker; and at Mobley’s, is H.
I. Mobley. All of them are well
and favorably known to the people
of Jackson county. This year an
other buyer of experience has re
turned to the field of buying the
fleecy staple. That person is George
W. Bailey. For some years he has
been engaged in other business, but
he is on the streets again greeting
farmers who bring their cotton to
this market, and his friends are glad
to see him back at the business he
knows so well.
All these Jefferson buyers have
good connections with cotton mills
and the big cotton traders of the
country. All are unanimous in sav
ing, “Jefferson will pay the highest
market price for cotton.”

“Speaking before an audience in
New York recently, Clayton Rand,
famous advertising expert, uttered
these words of truth and wisdom:
“ ‘There is nothing in print that has
fireside appeal, influence or pulling
power like the home-town newspa
per. In the aggregate, it is the
greatest power in America. The
first line of American defense is our
army of 14,000 home-town newspa
pers, and if the nation endures it
will be because these home town pa
pers were kept strong, and because
in any hour of peril they can be de
pended upon to carry the word of
warning to the people that the
enemy is within our gates. While
the metropolitan press is still the
great reflector of public thought
and opinion, The Cross-Roads Press
of America is still the motor of it,
and still America’s greatest safe
guard against enemies, both within
and without, the boundries.’ ” — The
