Atlanta, Oct. 5. - Cotton picking!
parties are becoming the fad of tlv -
day. They are proving not only en- :
joyable but profitable as well. The
farmer benefits by them, and the cot
ton pickers benefit also.
Even the women are joining the (
State wide movement to gather in the ■
of the Confederacy in Atlanta are set- .
ting a fine example, as they have un ,
dertaken to pick a certain amount of,
cotton. They are joining in with the
upper grade school children, the con
valescent soldiers and others, a day (
being assigned to each of these class ;
es of volunteers.
Those who wish to assist in the work -
are now put on a schedule, which pre
vents duplication of effort and renders
the assistance of voluiit"eis more elf:

SI’ALDING (Ol MY 1 \IR NOTES.
The Griffin Chapter, American Red
Cross, will have a bo t!i at the fair.
Ti e Boys’ and Girl.-'’ I’ig Clubs of
Spa’dimr County will be one of ;Le
n.o. i attractive exhibit- at the fair.
'Liie . .-k show nt the f..:r t iiis y< . r
w.li urniss anything tlmt. has ever
been undertaken ata Spn’dmg Coumy
Fair since the organization of the un
social ion.
The fair association always gives
frci-' admission to the school children 1
of Griffin and Spalding county one
day and this year will be no excep
tion to the ride. Every school child;
in the county is expected to be there.
'fin 1 agricultural building at the fair
will be taxed to its limit this year.:
There will be twice the usual number'
of exhibits in this department and !
their arrangement will be the best ,
ever had.
The races at the fair this year will ,
be confined to four days, viz: 'Tuesday,
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, j
The entries will be exceptional and
some speedy trials are promised. Ev- j
erybodv is expected to take a good
deal of interest in file race- this year, j
The grounds and buildings at the |
fair grounds will be in better shape (
than ever; a number of improvements,
and extensions have been made and I
the work will go steadily on until the (
day of opening the fair, which, by the 1
Way, is only two weeks off. If the
people are as near ready as the fair
is for the biggest and
I best fair ever held in Spalding county
then this year's fair will be a record
breaker.
Next Thursday's booster trip will be !
the last opportunity for the patriotic ;
home loving public to show their col- |
ors in making it the biggest booster
.trip ever started. Fifty to seventy
five cars are not to many to expect if
(those who have promised to go, really
.do start. The trip this time will be I
po Butts, Henry, Clayton and Fayette i
counties. Let's go.

An Appeal to
Your Patriotism
The Food Administration has requested the use
as far as possible of Victory Flour, SO per cent wheat
20 per cent corn or barley flour, either plain or self
rising, It costs no more and It Is Good.
We understand tiiis is not a law but a request,
just the same as the “Gas-Lcss Sundays.
Victory flour is on sale in Griffin and ‘Griffin I er
ritory.” If your merchant tells you he hasn t got it,
tell him to get it. W e can supply cither plain or elf
rising and we make no more profit than on "all-wheat
flour.
A trial bag of Victory flour will really surprise you.
