Madison County. 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 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. MR BUD PORTERFIELD BURIED SUNDAY Mr ‘‘Bud’* Porterfield, age 72, on last Saturday morning loaded his wa gon with a ‘‘turn” of corn ar.d drove to Thorntons Mill to have it made into meal. On alighting from the 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 and the funeral services wer in ' arge of Mr Averitt, who is with the Rosemary Funeral Directors. POULTRY CAR TO PASS COMER. Mr A D. Robertson, develeonioit agent, Seaboard Airline Railway an nounces that he will have a special poultry car in Corner on Mo.• ch 1 U! and will buv poultry at the high as* market price. . . 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. —Georgia Publisher. 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 for the aversee outhern negro an.! hundreds of tbtm who have gone Nen'h from li'ii- -"'ten have ned du:i"<g the vin'er months. !.• Funner-Tleraid 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. Publishers Auxiliary. * * ********* * JUST FROM ILA * *** ***** **** Mr T. J. Burroughs Jr. visited his mother on Sunday .
