PERTINENT MESSAGE
TO BOARD OF TRADE
Rev. John W, Ham, pastor of the
Baptist Tabernacle of Atlanta, deliver¬
ed the following address at the annual
meeting of the Cartersville Chamber
of Commerce last Monday evening:
“POINT”
Every Chamber of Commerce needs
a point toward which all of the busi¬
ness minds of the community gravi¬
tates. The correct definition of the pur
pose underlying every activity is es¬
sential to progress. It is fatal to allow
yourself to be misled in the matter of
public movements. A Chamber of
Commerce should avoid politics of ev¬
ery description. You will cease to func¬
tion properly the moment you enter
the. political erena. The failure of some
Chambers of Commerce to function
has made necessary the organization
of many other civic bodies. These
bodies called by different names would
be -unnecessary if the Chamber of
Commence were strong characteristics
of enthusiasm.
The Chamber of Commerce should
draw all of the interest of a communi¬
ty together along civic lines, and give
intelligent directions to those interest¬
ed and thereby do instructive work in
the upbuilding of a community.
“PEP”
The next essential needed is that of
Pep, which is another way of saying
Faith! The need of faith in the busi¬
ness world is never greater than at
present. Wall street is far more con¬
cerned about faith than the actual
money on deposit in the hanks at tin
present time.
Faith is essential to progress.
The optimist sees the doughnut. The
pessimist sees only the hole in the
doughnut. The pessimists wears sus
Penders and belt at the same time. He
lives in constant fear that something
will happen. The optimist is constantly
expecting something- to happen.
Ideas do not push under the fore¬
ground, hut men pusli ideas into con¬
crete terms of reality. The level-headed
Chamber of Commerce will be a fail¬
ure ithfe.ii" it litAMrelSe# a pofukre jaw
of b^un. determination. Your fight has only
When you reach out for something
bigger and better you will have to light
doubt and incredulity. Some people
are like arsenals of doubt and pessi¬
mism.
The Chamber with Pep must be a
pathfinding body for a community.
“PUSH”
Push is another important charac¬
terization of a successful man, co
.Nperation or group of men. Many men
are practically dead in a commercial
sense. They finish their careers with¬
out ever walking up to their Jacking
any will-power, and therefore they are
lacking in push.
Beyond the city boundary line, the
town of Cartersville is known as well
as Atlanta in certain channels of
thought. I have foufid it true in Bos¬
ton, New York, Chicago and San
Francisco, that when you mention tho
name of Sam P. Jones instantly thev
tell you he lived in Cartersville. He
put the town on the map.
Commercially this town is entitled
to a place on the map. You have the
finest and largest ochre min - in -
world located at your very doors.
Proper advertising ol these things
to the world will cause capital to seek
investment here, and tell the worl 1
what you Jiave in mineral resources.
It pays to advertise.
A goose lays an egg and goes off
and says nothing about it. There is
no demand for goose eggs in the mar¬
ket. The hen lays an egg and she
cackles all the morning about it. Ev¬
erybody buys her products.
It pays to advertise!
“PINNACLE”
Every individual as well as a com¬
munity body such as the Chamber of
Commerce should have a pinnacle to¬
ward which it is striving.
Objectives determine the character
'<i any people.
The lack of objectives likewise de¬
termine character.
In conclusion I leave three words
with you. Organize, Agonize and ArP
vertise.

romantic young person who existed

fession. has been doing some writing
and was until recently engaged on a
novel entitled “The Song of Sweet
Anna.” He declares he was much sur¬
prised when, upon showing his fi¬
ancee the manuscript of the novei,
she became angered and tore it to
shreds, believing the heroine of the
story was pictured after a real person.
Hughes says that at the time he ex¬
pected the matter to be “patched up,"
but instead he next heard of his sweet

all interested in and every farmer In
the county and adjacent territory
knows the benefit it will he to them

$1.50 Per fear in Advance
Vice-President Coolidge in his holi¬
day message sent forth these memora¬
ble words: “Christmas is a day of re¬
joicing; new year is a day of hope."
As we stand on the threshold of a
new year let it he with a spirit of con¬
fidence and hope.
Looking backward f
we realize with
Hamlet, “Times have been out of
joint.” True then, true now. Some one
has said: “The very depression we
have experienced is hut an Incentive
to improvement—a re-adjustment.”
We as Americans, as Georgians, as
Newton county citizens have every
cause to rejoice. With every condition,
temporal and spiritual in our favor,
it is only a matter of hard work,
study, application and a come again
spirit wiicn the results must be ours.
Realizing fully, “There will lie bur¬
dens to lie borne, hut the power will
he greater still; there are thanks to lie
offered for what we have and what we
are; and there is a justifiable faith In
ourselves to rise to the emergencies.”
“Forgetting the things that are be¬
hind and reaching forward to the
things that are before we press toward
the mark.”
“Hope stands there by her gate
And summons passers by to be
Her guests—let all come eagerly,
All, all are welcome, even to the least
When Hope invites to her feast."
Make her prophecies come to pass.
May they not bo in vain!
