There is an old and vary true say

SOUTHERN STEAMSHIP LINES APPLICATION FOR CHARTER

SERVICE GEORGIA. Baldwin County.
To the Superior Court of -aid count.
The -outhern steamship lines offer
the traveler accommodations equal
to th i of trans-Atlantic line.*, is
the a- wrtiop of President A. E. Clift
«»f the Central of Georgia in a state
ment published today. He says:
"Ea»h year, particularly during
the summer, many American^ make
vacation or sight-seeing trip* to Eu
rope. One attraction of such a jour
ney is the opportunity to spend sev
eral days at sea. A trip to Europe
can be enjoyed only by those able to
take a comparatively extended vaca
tion. but a sea trip, comparable in
every way to the voyage across the
Atlantic, can be enjoyed by anyone
at & m.nimum of expense and time.

The appearance of n town is just
important as the appearance of a
package, the appearance of a show
window, clothing, or anything that is
purchased in the store or on the
market

tents of the can any better. Why
do automobile manufacturers spend
so much time, care and money on the

smoother or last any longer, or make

ture with the ieast scratch; a suit,

n book with a broken cover; a shirt
with a torn tail, are less than the
perfect animal with a skin blemish

Look around you and see all these
things are made to look attractive, in
order ttyt you may be attracted
thereby—then, think of your town.
The picture of many communities
would serve well for a puzzle picture
of “Whit’* W^ong Here?” Stand
buck and take a good look at the
picture of your own front yard, your
store, your office building, you

you half way ashamed of it? Are
you proud of it, or do you apoligizc
