Whitley was called to his final reward. He was born Nov. 12, 1853 and was married to Miss A C. Hooker Nov. 21 1886. There was born tothis union seven child ren, four boys and three girls. He joined the Baptist church at the age of sixteen years and lived a consistent Christian life. He was indeed a loving hus band and a loving father. To know him was to love him. I have visited the home many times, having been his pastor for six years, and I never visited- a home where there seemed to be more love and harmony than there was in this one. He was pleasant among his family and they seemed very happy. He has only paid the debt we all must pay, and we must sub mit to the will of God, knowing that He dieth all things well, and be as old Job, saying, “The Lord giveth and the Lord has taken away. Blessed be the name of the Lord,” May the richest of God’s bless ings be upon the bereaved fami ly and that they so live “that in the future they may all be gathered in that happy home where there will be no more sick- THE BUSINESS HAN’S “BIT" Andrew M. Soule, President Georgia State College of Agriculture. The business man is, and has al ways been, an important and construc tive factop'iu the life of the commun ity. Never before in the history of the South is he destined to play so essentially a leading part, provided lie rises to the opportunity and discharges the duties, responsibilities and obli gations resting upon him as a citizen and patriot. First, he should take a prominent part ih the solution of the situation now confronting us; to insure the farmer a market. He must also un dertake the financing of diversified production, since the change to diver sification of crops means the purchase of new and varied implements, in* creased applications of fertilizers, and credit for the purchase of seeds and machinery. Hitherto credit has been based upon cotton production to the exclusion of diversified crops. There must be a modification of rent notes and rent contracts; not that ibe cul tivation of cotton should be eliminated 1 or unduly restricted, but that addition al .channels of credit should be provid ed and varied crop production pro moted and stimulated. Second, it is the part of the business man to provide the necessary ma chinery, suen as feed mills, corn grind ers and store-houses for the preserv ing of potatoes and other perishable crops. At present there is every fa cility for warehousing cotton, but no means for holding and marketing food crops. Whenever business men will provide the proper facilities, diversi fication of crops will proceed by leaps and bounds. Third, the business man must per form the duty of food assembler. The problem of food distribution cannot be left to the individual farmer, since his production of a certain crop is often so small as to preclude the possibility of marketing at a profit. On the other hand, business men are able to as semble the crops in small amounts and provide for general distribution, since they have the economy of large shipments. This work is patriotic and Bhould also be profitable. Lois Mills J. E. Ledbetter has returned to Lois Mills and has accepted his eld position as card grinder. Mr. and Mrs. W, A.

There was a nice program rendered. Miss Edith Dakesangmost beautifully that grand old song, 1 'The Holy City,” her mother, Mrs. Z. T. Dake, playing the accompani ment. This would be a grand old country if we could be forever rid of the chronic kickers and grumblers. You often hear people say we are having the hardest time there has ever been,, v/hen every one who wants to look on the brighter side knows that the country today is better in every way than it has ever been. We actually spend more money today for luxuries than we spent for necessities twenty years ago. But the chronic .bel- lyacher says: “No, we arej'go- ing to destruction.” They sure do give me a pain. W. Hy.'C. Marketing . j if Georgia Products 1 Andrew M. Soule, President Georgia State College of Agriculture. Upon the business men of the state rests the responsibility of establish ing consuming markets for Georgia, products, not only at home, but abroad; also. For instance, one community last year shipped several hundred car loads of sweet potatoes to northern, markets. The individual farmer can-i not do work of this kind; the respon-‘ -sibility for organization rests with the business men. There are several Geor gia crops which are not appreciated in northern and eastern markets, simply* because there are no largo consuming markets for these products. An organ ized campaign in exploiting the possi bilities of these crops would undoubt edly react as favorably as has such! work in connection with cotton seed and peanut oil. Educational forces, such as the State College of Agriculture and its County Demostration Agents, could promote diversification with greater rapidity) in Georgia and aid -in the early so-; lution of the present food problem ifi the business men would,- "clear the; decks for action” with the statement, “Go tell the farmers to grow the va rious kinds of food needed and we will; find acceptable markets for all they, produce/' At present the educational) character of the work they are called; upon to perform separates the college; workers in a measure from the mar keting end of the proposition which is strictly a business question. Unfor tunately business men have not been as aggressive or interested in this line of work as they should have been. For this reason the attempts of our agricultural college to pro mote diversification have often been nullified to a considerable extent. If the handicap is removed our agricul tural college workers win be able to perform a service work of the utmost importance in the present crisis with.! assurance of immediate results. Let! us all stand together—our country de-j rnanda it. Dearest: husband, thou lias left us. Here thy less wedeeply feel, hut in heaven we hope to meet thee, where no farewell tears are shed. Dear father, thou loss we deeDly feel, but in heaven we hope to meet thee in that bright land above. This tribute of respect written by his former pastor, S. T. Gil- land.
