Well, there was a lady in
Marshall county (Ala.), who, on
her death bed, begged to be
baptized- The doctor told them
that it would not hurt her, tor
she would die in a few hours
anyway. So. they fixed a wag-
on bed where it would hold e-
nough water, and as they took
the poor old soul from her bed
to the water (carrying her on
the feather bed) she died. No
tice how I am saying this. Is
there a sane man in Georgia
that would say that poor old
woman went to hell and her
dying desire was to be baptiz-

not live to get to the water?
That makes my flesh crawl to
think about men going over the
country preaching a doctrine
that would force them to say
that poor woman will have to
spend eternity in hell. Thai say

will finally be lost in hell. And
that every man and woman

The Cat Came Back
By W. C. SKAGGS
Well, what about it! We are
in Northern Indiana, but here
is my column, nevertheless.
“The cat came back." I am ask¬
ing "ye editor" to run this for
me, because I didn't realize,
until I moved, how many
friends I had. There is nobody
here to say Hello, Skaggs to
me when I go out into town,
I'd give some of my wages if
a num ber of Dade County folks
were here to swap greetings
with. I realize now that I didn't
hate you all like I thought I
did, and that I really love you.
And oh. how we miss those

-i-t-e cit all times to my young-

“Look ahead . . . look South!"
For more than two years, we’ve said this on
millions of pages of advertising in magazines with

We’ve made the suggestion to investors and

GEORGIA POLIO
DRIVE OPENS
i ATLANTA, Ga. (Special).— the
Georgia starts out today on
! 1945 campaign to subdue in-
fantile para i ysis , in the annual
. for f^g to combat the
of this cripp ling disease,
as well as to ferret ou the mys¬
terious causes of its existence
and to find methods for its cure.
William K. Jenkins is state
director of the polio appeal;
Robert F- Maddox is chairman
of the Georgia Chapter of the
j-Notional Foundation for Infan-
tile Paralysis; Governor Ellis
Arnall is honorary state chair-
man of the organization; Robert
H. Scott is State Director of the
press and radio,
Because of its long and inti-
raa d e to farmers, either owners
or tenants, who own or can
make arrangements to obtain
land to farm; who own or nave
the use of workstock and equip-
ment to farm, and who can
give a first lien on the crops to
be financed as security. Loans
to finance the purchase or pro¬
duction of feed for livestock and
poultry are also available und¬
er the same qeneral terms and
conditions, except a first mortg-
age on the stock or poultry to
Le fed is required as security.
I mate interest with the cause,
Georgia this year has been
made national nucleus of the
country-wide appeal and, this
week, motion picture theatres
throughout America will begin
showing sound pictures made
here last week by both Para¬
mount and MGM cameramen
of the city's and state's original
activities.
The campaign for funds will
continue through the remainder
of January, ending in a state¬
wide series of balls celebrating
the birthday of President Roose¬
velt, an originator of the annu¬
al effort for this humanitarian
j cause. Six of these balls, ac-
| cording to custom, v/ill be held
at Atlanta hotels and clubs.
"Georgia is one of the prime
beneficiaries of the National
campaign," Jenkins said yester¬
day. "Half of the funds which
will be raised in the appeal re¬
main in the actual locality
where they are raised, for em¬
ergency and other use in con¬
nection with infantile paralysis;
♦he remainder goes to the Na¬
tional Foundation for use in re¬
search, education and epidemic
treatment—such as, incidental¬
ly, which struck our neighbor¬
ing state of North Carolina last
ummer."
