RETURNS FROM VACATION
Rev. and Mrs. H. L. Edmondson re
turned last week from their vacation
of several weeks from a visit at Cum
ming, Ga., where they have relatives.
They enjoyed greatly the time spent
in the mountain section andmeturned
much benefitted from their outing.
Brother Edmondson preached two
unusually strong and impressive ser
mons at the First Methodist church
Sunday, preaching to splendid con
gregations at the morning and even
ing hours.
ATTEND FORDSON
INDUSTRIAL EXPOSI
TION IN ATLANTA
The Southeastern Fordson Indus
trial Exposition to be held in Atlanta
from August 29th to 31st inclusive,
promises to be replete with interest
for the public. No exhibit, we are
informed by Harris Motor Cos., local
Ford dealers, will be more fascinating
than what is known as the “line
drive.”
In explaining this Mr. Garrett
says, “The ‘line drive” is a device by
which the Fordson Tractor is driven
with a pair of lines just as a horse is
driven.
“This device is so constructed
that the tractor can be driven for
ward at varying speeds or guided
right or left around sharp turns or
corners or stopped quickly merely by
the manner in which the lines are
pulled.
“The practical value of this device
is that it becomes possible for one
man to do the work of two men. For
instance a horse drawn mowing ma
chine may be hitched to the Fordson
Tractor. The farmer may sit on the
machine and drive his Fordson just
as he is in the habit of driving a
horse.
“Again in road building much ma
chinery requires the services of two
men as now operated. A road scraper
usually requires a man on the scraper
and one to drive —so with many
graders. With the ‘line drive’ and
the Fordson this work can all be done
by one man.”
Mr. Garrett further states between
sixty and seventy manufacturers of
national reputation from half the
states in the Union will exhibit at
this exposition.
JUST smilT
The value of a smiling face cannot
be computed. This we know; that
many a one is making his life count
and is being helped to forge to the
front because of the atmosphere he
creates by being a man of good cheer.
What others are doing you can do if
you will. Therefore, cheer up and
smile! Nothing attracts more than
a smiling face. Neither is there any
thing more contagious. And this is
something all of us can do, and in
which both the giver and receiver
are blessed. It costs so little to
smile, and is worth so much. Give
a smile. Lo! back it comes with in
terest compounded! Just look up
and laugh. It is hygienic. Give to
others good cheer and you receive
sunshine in return. Smile, and the
world smiles with you; frown, and
you walk alone. Why be gloomy and
sad when it hurts you and benefits
no one else? Come, be of good cheer,
and smile! Why not? —Ex.
A CORRECTION
A few errors crept into the article
last week about the land values of
Lamar county. The names of the
following appeared in the Johnston
ville district, when they should have
been placed in the Unionville district:
J. M. Sims. Mrs. E. E. Taylor, J. I.
& Mrs. E. B. Taylor and J. R. Wil
liams estate.
In giving the two negro land own-
ers in the Redbone district Norah and
Ernest Fryer were credited with 200
acres when it should have been only
2 acres, as the total land given in by
negroes in Redbone is only 102 acres.
