Ail aboard for next year's fair.
L.t’s begin on it now.
As little as you think, shopping ear
ly means a great deal.
The Georgia-Carolina Fair at Au¬
gusta was a great succ.ess
The newspapers continue to carry
stories of crime in Georgia.
Georgia Products Day was a great
success throughout the state.
What are you chucking overt? Oh,
the success of Newton's fair.
You aid the fight on tubercolosis
when you buy Red Cross seals.
Give a little credit to the fellow
next to you. You are not every¬
thing.

The influx of young men to the

They are f:ist realizing the opportu¬

The Emory Weekly is now issuing

Augusta has begun a small w-or on
the "loan sharks." This is another
evil which has been permitted to
mn wild throughout all America. The
grand juries should awaken to a real!
ztion of what these enemies of so¬
ciety are doing.
Isn’t the contrast great between
Governor Slaton going around amount
the peple of his state at his own ex¬
pense delivering addresses free of
charge, and secretary W. J. Bryan,
roaming around doing the lyceum
‘ stunt" with a huge tax on his sput
terings.
Why should the state tax the col¬
lege endowments? These institutions
are performing a service for the
state which can not. be measured in
dollars. Perhaps the movement now
on foot among the Emory college
alumni will meet with success in the
next legislature.
We congratulate Edward J. Wel
born, of Morgan county, on his mag¬
nificent corn yield of 181.72 bushels
on 4,837 square yards of land, and
thereby winning several valuable
prizes at *he Georgia-Carolina Fair
in Augusta. His yield is a record for
1913.
Have you noticed the steady silence
which “Little Joe" Brown has main¬
tained since he left the governor’s
chair several months ago? it is ver;«
seldom that a public man has kept
"mum" for such a long time unless
lie has something up his sleeve. And
we might think that “Little Joe”
does not intend to keep quiet for
tie rest of time.

i|| THE COVINGTON NEWS WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1913.
WHY SHOP EARLY,
Each year several weeks before
Christmas, in fact months, the news¬
papers of the United States urge the
public to ©hop early. There are
plenty of reasons, and it Is not idle
comment from the standpoint of the
p-’ese.
In the first place, the buying pub¬
lic gains by buying their Christmas
goods early. They have the choice,
and everyone knows the advantage in
having the pick of anything.
The Christmas merchandise is new-,
and by buying early you get the good
■> hile they are new. Accumulations
of dirt have not been made upon the
goods when you buy early.
And perhaps the greatest of all
teasons, you greatly assist the busi¬
ness' men. and their clerks. The
clerks stands on his feet all day- the
year around, and why should you
cause him double work by delaying
your Christmas purchases.
The woman who stands behind the
counter is not physically able to en¬
dure t 1 e strain of several days
work to satisfy the rush of an exact¬
ing and hurrying public.
Already Christmas goods are on
display in the various stores, so shop
new while ©hopping is easy.
