• ——■ i
The little village, Halls-Lin wood, is
j situated midway between Kingston
! and Adajrsville. it is in one sense
! unique; that is. it bears two names.
The name Halls was given the village
in honor of a northern citizen, Mr
Hall, who came here and established
a saw mill. During his stay, he pros
j pered. After being here for several
j years, he returned to Atlanta, where
! he now resides.
There being another postoffice in
Georgia by the name of Halls Lin
wood was given as a name for post
office.
Halls-Lin wood is. quite a busy vil
lage with its bauxite mines, gins, saw
mills, schools and churches, as weli
as dutiful citizens, trying to aid others
in the present crisis.
The members of the churches, and
citizens have proposed that “Open Air
Meeting,” be held at Halls-Llnwood,
the little village with two names and
preliminary arrangements were made
Wednesday evening, by selecting
grove, speakers, music and other com
mittees.

! MEMORIAL TO MRS. A. M, FOUTE.
From th Woman’s Missionary t>o-
I ciety of the First Baptist church:
j Sadne - fell up:n our hearts, when
,r was announced that our friend, sis
ter and co-worker in the Woman’s
Missionary'Society, Mrs. A. M. honte,
had gone home. While we cannot over
come these sad feeling, we must ‘re
member that God never calls one it
Lis children home until their life
, work is finished.
With our dear sister, it was after
days and nights of patient suffering,
that the Father said, "It is enough my
child, come up higher.” The beautiful
life was ended, and she went to live
and serve ii that city not made with
Lands, whose maker and builder is
God.
Although frail in body, it was her
pleasure to serve ihe Master where
ever her strength would permit.
For a long time she was the-faith
ful and efficient secretary and treas
mor of the society. It was indeed a
pleasure to work side by side with this
earnest Christian woman; so consider
ate of others, yet firm and courageous
in her convictions of right. Truly she
lived the golden rule.
While we remembdr her as the gen
tie, unobtrusive worker in her church,
.she was also a devoted wafe’and moth
er. ‘‘She looked well to the ways of
her household, she eat not the bread
of idleness. The heart of her husband
could safely trust in her.”
We the members- of the Woman’s
Missionary Society extend to the fam
ily our sincere sympathies in this
great sorrow". May children and chil
dren's children follow in her footsteps
I as she followed her Saviour. We re
! joice with them in their noble herit
| age, the memory of father and mother
who have heard the ‘well done.” of
their Lord.

MRS. J. G. GREENE,

Embattled American
-of Year 1917
*
Times change. In the Revolution
ary war it tva3 the “embattled farc
ers" who fired the shot heard round
the world.
Today the American farmer is n-y o!fi
doing something that will be heard
round the world, but in a different
way.
The world is waiting on the Amer
lean farmer for its food. Its hope is ln
him. It wishes him good weather and
abundant crops, and it will pay
well.
The fanner wifi help win battles
that he will never see. For our bov s
at the front will be well fed and co Ur .
ageous, thanks to his industry ans
patriotism.
Nor is the farmer’s part in this world
war—in this greatest catastrophe hig.
tory has ever had to record—limited to
producing food. He has his part to
play before crops are ready for har
vest. For right now, the nation needs
the farmer’s support in a different
way. It needs his co-operation on Lib
arty bonds.
These bonds are issued to equip our
soldier boys with everything they will
need for their safety, comfort and
fighting strength. The government will
pay every bond buyer 314 per cent in
terest, free from all taxes, and will re
turn to him the entire principal. Lib
erty bonds are a safe, sure, profitable
investment.
It is the hop# of President Wilion
that not a single farmer in th* coun
try will be seen without a Liberty
bond burton in his buttonhole.
Fall Irish Potatoes
T. H. Me Hatton, Professor of Horti.
culture. State College of Agri.
4
The farmers of northern Georgia
should lay their plans to put in a
large crop of fall Irish potatoes. If
transportation is tied up this fall and
winter, it will not be possible for us
to call on Maine and the other pota
to producing states for our supplies.
They will have to be produced at
home. The North Georgia farmer can
make a good fall Irish potato crop;
and if the farmers of this section will
give this matter due consideration,
we should be able to produce in our
mountain sections enough potatoes
to carry Georgia through until the
spring crop comes in from the south
ern portion of the state. This is
the time to show to the rest of the
country what the mountain soils of
North Georgia can do.
