FATHER McNAMARA PLEASED
WITH RELIEF DRIVE

duty of all to rally to th's need, is
there anvono in our community who
will fa/1 him? This complete report
will tell.
The other event to which T refer
ig the meeting that wan held Monday
pvening of the workers of our drive
This meeting marked officially the
close of the drive and the reports
that were made by the individual
ehureh committees, which have car
ried on so splendidly the work of the
drive, showed very plainly that most
of our people have rcal : zed the need
-that exist and have sought through
♦heir contributions to the drive to
do their part in the relief of human
need. I cannot find words suffici
ently descriptive to depict the won
derful spirit that our people have
shown. Already it is cv : dent that
the report that will be published the
first week in December will reveal
that Milledgeville. to use a word that
our President has corned, if] NO
BUCKP.4SSER. Indeed this report
will show. I bel'eve, that Milledee-
v’ilo and Baldw : n are a community
without, parallel nmone- Geonrn com
munities. Yet not enough has been
collected to care for the poor and
the needy as they should be cared
for, that is cared for In the manner
that oar President would hare them
eared for. But if thoee who have
not aa yet contributed, few though
they are in number, will do so before
December 2, then each and every
one of ns sen look to tho next twelve
months with pardonable pride and
with the satisfaction that not only
has duty been done bnt that hope
has supplanted despair in many hu
man hearts by reason of onr efforts.
Already a per capita contribution of
approximately fifty cents has been
made by our comramity.
If you are out of step with the
community, get in step by making
your contribution between now and
the second of the month through
either. Red Cross Headquarters or
your Pa-ior.
DR.
HERTY’S DREAM COMES
TRUE
(Continued from front page)
when the final reports on the run
had been made.
Born amid the pine trees of Geor
gia here in Milledgeville, Dr. Hcrty
bcctfme interested in them as a boy
and it was natural that this interest
,'hould continue.
It is predicted that tho time is
not far in the future when news
paper w*Jl be manufactured in Geor
gia. A big field is opened. 900 mil
lion dollars worth of newspaper is
consumed annually. The field of
Georgia pine trees will be turned in
to money and Dr. Herty deserves
the thanks.
The Georgia pine grows suffici
ently in ten years so that it can be
used for the manufacture of paper.
The Canad ; an spruce must be from
40 years of age upward before it
ran l>e used and in most cases
must be transported long distances.
All these facts favor the Georgia
pine and are strong indications that
the Oeo»g : a pine will figure promi
nently in paper manufacture within
a short rime.
Tho people here, and many of
them know him as “Charlie”,
proud of Dr. Herty. They have
watched the news of his experiment^
with interest and nowhere was there
greater rejoicing than in Milled*'
vTle when Monday morning th
daily papem came with the announce
ment that they had printed tho edi
tions of this date on paper made of
Georg-'a pine
Dr. Herty thanked all those who
aided him in his work. He has used
tree* from this county in his experi
ments and found them highly satis
factory.
