general elections. On Tuesday March

SCHOOL CENSUS BEING TAKEN
The school census for Madison
County is being taken in the thirty
five school districts of the County..
It is rather a difficult task not to
overlook some child. When we rea
lize what that would mean to the
county, it is a much more important
task than we would at first suppose.
The reporting of each child means
in the next five years the sum of
about $6 or $7 per year to the county
making in the five years S3O or $35
for each child. If just one child was
overlooked by each enumerator it
would mean a loss to the county in
its public school apportionment S9OO
to SIOOO. Oftentimes the lines of
the. lines of the school district are not
clearly known by those in charge of
the work, and possibly some small
section may be left cut, losing to the
county several thousand dollars,
Every citizen should aid in every way
to assist sn tbis work, probably s; v
ing to the county a nice ’irtJe i.m
which rightfully belongs to our
children.

THREE MADISON COUNTY BOYS
ENLISTED FOR ARMY SERVICE.
Three more Madison County boys
■were accepted for the army at the
Athens, Ga recruiting station during
the past week, and were sent to
Atlanta for enlistment. R. L.
Ogletree, T. F. Smith and S. F. Dur
ham, of Madison County were accept
ed for the Cavalry, and will go to
Fort Oglethorpe, Ga. for station.
Madison County, certainly has raised
a horse loving bunch of young men,
stated Sergeant William Ryan, in
charge of army recruiting in Athens,
for this reason, I have had about
twenty applicants' in the past three
months from Madison County, and
but with few exceptions, all, have
elected to go into a mounted branch
of tli service -where the horss is
used, such as the cavalry or the
horse drawn field artillery.

wagon at the. mill he fell dead. It i.s
t known just what caused his death
lr Porterfield was a substantial
citizen and a progressive farmer,
lie leaves a widowed wife,
three sons, and a host of friends to
mourn his untimely death. He was
buried at old Lystra Church ceme
tery last Sunday afternoon.. Rev.
Wells preached the funeral sermon

Danielsville, Georgia. Friday, Mar, 2 1923
INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT
In the last, issue of The Publisher,
we called attention tc the fact that
a wonderful opportunity now pre
sents itself for the South to bring on
this side * of Mason and Dixon’s line
many of the manufacturing compa
nies now located in the New England
States. We ar e not able to give away
some secrets known to The Publish
er, but it can be accepted as a fact,
that there is going to be some in
dustrial development in this State
within the next few months that will
open the eys of the people. Every
newspaper in Georgia that desires
to have his community get in on the
ground floor should* begin a cam
paign right now for new industries
Every town in the State is an admi
rable location for almost any kind of
a manufacturing plant. The wise edi
tor will begin calling attention to
this fact; will consider all of the an
gles and make suggestions as to just
what kind of industries will prove to
be successful, and will adviee just
how the people can get together in
the establishment of or bring to such
community the industries proposed.
Take the matter of textiles. There
j is no doubt of the fact that thert is
not a community in the State in
which a textile mill will prove to be
: a success. The labor is in easy reach
shipping facilities are good, and raw
■ material is right at the mill door,
j Tiier is every reason to believe that
! many of the textile mills oi‘ the East
! will move South during the next few
|
years, and Georgia should get the
greater share because of t'n great
er advantages she can offer. Some of
the Georgia communities are going
to profit largely by this 3hift in loca
tion. The Georgia towfi that fails to
gee busy now in preparau *, is going
tind itself lost in the shuffle.
There was a time when textile
mills were not profitable in many
Georgia communities. Lack of e
nough capital and incompetent man
agement wer largely th reason o? fail
ure. This lesson has been dearly
learned, and now - no one makes the
mistake of putting up a $50,090
mill and hiring a superintendent at
| $l5O per month. Success cannot be
met that way. There must be greatr
i capita! and there must be in charge
! the right kind of a manager at the
;right salary.
It was not the- intention of the
writer to open up a discussion as to
textile mills. It was merely t is pul
pore to hint iust a little as to activi
ties which will soon begin in the hope
that every editor in the State will
take the initiative in buldlng up a*
industrial sentiment in his comrnunty
to the end that when the band wagon
begins traveling along the highway of
industrial prosperity every hamlet in
Georgia wili be ready to climb aboard
If this hint is allowed to pass un
noticed, there is going to be a time
when there will be found standing
along the highway some mighty fool
ish-looking individuals.

NEGROES WHO WENT NORTH
ARE DIEFNG OF PNEUMONIA.
Robert Johnson, colored who for
years was a hand on the farm of
Judge Hamilton McWharter and who
wont to Chicago during the negro ex
odus about two years ago, died a few
days ago in the Illinois city with pneu
mania and two of his brothers, who
are also in Chicago, were too ill to go
the burial and arc not expected to
live, according to a message received
l ack here by Joh'.on’s relatives
The northern climate is too severe

FIFTEEN CENTS AN INCH
| The Auxiliary is in receipt of a
country weekly that appears to be
! prosperous but actually is not. It has
j a circulation of 2,000 in a fine com
j nunity; gets out a fine issue; and is
! frilled with advertising. But it char-
Iges only 15 cents au inch for that
| advertising.
i Other editors will immediately rec
ognize the fact that such a paper is
not going to make its owner rich. He
l will he lucky if he can keep his head
above water, even with a fully paid
iup subscription list. His rate should
be at least 25 cents an inch for each
1,000, the rate in general use before
i..e war. In o her words tc ought to b e
getting 50 cents an inch, with dis
counts for long contracts and few
changes in copy, although we would
not recommend that he try to itop
his advertisers from changing their
j ads often, as that alone makes his *i.s
--i play colams of real worth .
| Our suggestion to such a publisher
jis to issue anew card of rate; and
; tell his advertisers that he has the
| circulation that justifies the higher
rates, and then sit back and watch
| results. There is no question that he
| will lose a lot of business right off
| the reel, but eventually with such a
1 splendid circulation, the advertisers
will have to come and talk business
to him
There is only one danger in the
situation—that he might cut down
on the fine quality of the paper he
is now putting out and thereby lose
some of his subscribers. If he holds
up quality, and even improves on it
by adding some features in place of
the lost advertising, it will be only a
few months before he ’will be getting
out a paper that will start him on the
road o independar.ee. He is certainly
rot traveling that road right now, at
3 5 cents an ireh.
