CHARLTON COUNTY HERALD, FOLKSTON, GEORGIA.
( RESOLVING TIME. |
' The opeuing season for the new .
year resolution 1s at hand, and it
is nice to made them, if though
you break them. Of course
when we thick of resclutions we
are reminded of revolving in tne
same thought,
F.r whom among us that does
not rosolve, only tohave the thing
turn right around and revolve on
the cycle of time right cver again,
Still with all of that we believe
in New Yesr Resolutions. It is
hardly possible that any of you
are converted to a good habit
without several trying period of
doing over again that which ycu
first resolved to do at rirst. And
a_ain the man thal never resolves
has not even a half chance of do
ing the right thing.
So we say to you, go richt on
making your new sesolutions, and
if at first they do not stict keep
on making them over and over
again. That is what we bhave
just resoved to do curselves, and
it is not the first time we have so
resolved, and we earnestly pray
not the last time,
Our New Year resolution for
1929 is to do the very best we can
so create a npirit of good fellowship
in our community. boost the thing
he!ping to each and every one
that is a citizen of tha com
munity, and to try and make owr
piper better and better as the
days go by.
If we can spread a little checr
and make yeur pleasure greater,
we shall feel that we have done
some good work at |easl.
We hope to visit you 52 time in
1929, with a record of bringing
you tidings of prosperity, peace
and good will every week,
} STICKING TOGETHER
‘ We are indebted to the Nussau
Coumy Leader for this wise bit of
philosphy;
“People always make more pro
gress if they unite in geoups than
if they play lone hands. Few peo
ple can do much a'l by themselves,
Itis when people work together
in bunches that they get resuits.
A family whose members do not
stict together, and support thh ef
forts of each one of them, is not
likely to make much impession on
a community. The people in a
city should regard themselves as
constitutingz a big family, who
need to stict together to accom
plish results. This calls for har
monious action in promoting com
munity projects, and for a willing
ness of the pevple to keep their
money at home by buying good
of home dealers,"
