Oil Friday and Saturday last there was held in Newnan a highly educative tractor demonstration under the direction of the Motor Tractor Co. of Newnan, representing tlie agencies selling tlie Fordson tractor in Coweta and adjoining counties.

A largo crowd wns in attend ance and seemed to enjoy tho pictures.

At a meeting bold Monday night at tlie Chamber of Commerce, attended by about sixty representative business men of Nownnn, the NoobIio plan of commu nity advertising wns enthusiastically adopted, after hearing the plan explain cd by Mr. G. It. Lowe, of Neosho, Mo. Through the Interest nnd efforts of tlie Central of Georgia railway Mr. Lowe was brought to Newnan to meet our bus iness men, explain tlie Noosho plan, and tell some of the splendid results it had brought to the ono hundred and fifty odd live communities now using it. Tho audience gave Mr. Lowe tho strictest attention, and at the conclusion of ids address lie was asked many questions regarding tlie practical workings of the plan. The meeting, originally scheduled to have been a dinnor under tho auspices of the Friday Lunch Club, was changed into nn open meeting because no ad equate arrangements could be made to serve the supper, Despite the heat tho crowd tlmt gathered to hour Mr. Lowe fvas stated to have been the largest yot assembled to meet the speaker since tho beginning of his tour through this sec tion. The chairman, Mr. O. W. Passnvnnt, called tho meeting to order and intro duced first Mr. J. D. McCartney, As sistant General Passenger Agent of the Central of Georgia railway, who out lined in a few words the reasons which impelled the railway oxer,stives to inves tigate and adopt tliis method of bring ing the Neosho plan to the towns located on their lines. Mr. McCartney then in troduced tlie speaker of ttic evening. For over an hour Mr. Lowe hold the attention of tho audience while lie gavo in detail the facts about the origin nnd growth of tho plan, not only in the town of Neosho, of which he is n residnet, but also told of successfully introducing tho plan into more than one hundred and seventy towns in twenty-two different StntaB. Just recently he has concluded a tour of twenty weeks over the lines of tho New York Central railroad, and a tour of considerable length over the Erie railroad. While a most convincing speaker, Mr. Lowe is moreover a rapid-fire talker, and it would not be possible for The Herald to give in detail all tlie good points brought out in his talk. However, the main points of the Neosho plan, ns ex plained by tho speaker, consisted of three co-ordinated movements by the merchants of a town, namely— First, an auction salo, to be conducted for tho benefit of farmers principally, at which' they could sell any used house hold goods, farming , implements, live stock, etc. The auctioneer is paid by tho seller of the goods or stock, a fee of 2 per cent, on sales made being the only charge. The farmers and pthers patron izing the unction can receive free public ity, if they so desire. The second part of the plan, ns ox plained by Mrt Lowe, consie's of n town-wide co-operative sales day—prof- CORN COLLODIAN Removes corns, bunions, and callouses without pain or soreness.
