i j '--IK Grim death lias again visited our town and claimed for its vic tim our friend and mother and wife, Mrs. J. M Morris and left a vacancy that can never be filled. While we extend our profound sympathy to you, my bereaved friends, our tears are blended with yours and we rejoice that you.are spared the intense agony of suspense that some less fortun ate are supposed to endure. The guide she followed nev.er leads his lambs astray, .but leads them cautiously that they may avoid the coming in contact with some perilous shoal and perish among the barriers. She trusted her savior implic itly. She leaves a husband, and four sons, Chester, Jeff, Kinard and Joe Neal to mourn her death. Look forward loved ones, with hope and remember that the fear of death is overcome only by liv ing in God’s service. FORDSOti TRACTOR DEMONSTRATION A ' CREST SUCCESS The Fordson Demonstration held here on Tuesday was attend ed by a large by a large 1 crowd of interested farmers. This dem onstration was held by represen tatives of Ford Motor Co., and J R. Duncan, the local Fordson dealer. The moving picture show held Monday night in the grove near Duncan’s garage and attracted a large crowd. The different reels were very interesting and were strong arguments for better seed bed preparation for successful farming.

The object of the meeting is to see whether or not we can make a Cream ery a paying proposition for you and Douglas County, K Every member of the Farm Bureau and evei;y farm er in the county are urged to attend. We have been assured the co-operation of the busi ness men in a financial way to get something on foot that is to your interest. The problem is too great for you to solve alone and it is going to take us all pulling together to mak.e a success. This is why we urge you to lay aside your problems at home and be with us. Do not wait for your neighbor to bear the blunt of getting things started and then think you will come in and get the gravy, but come with him and let’s all get started together. Other counties have been successful in doing these things, there is no reason why we can’t. Now if you and your county want to be the tail end in the state of Georgia and the South, just stay at home and I will assure you that will be the outcome of your progress.
