( 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.

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," HURSEY'S CALF CLUB The Tifton Experimcntal farm hiee presented County Agent Hur sey with a regisrered Jersey buli eall, Itis a dandy one, and the sire from which it enme is valued at S3OOO. mre.
