PROTECT TIMBER LANDS
The matter of safe-guarding tim
ber lands in Georgia has become in
creasingly important and, while land
owners profess to real’xe this, little
has been done to bring the
the people to the realization of just
how important it is to keep fires out
of our wooded lands.
A few years afro little thought was
given to the destruction of the seed
ling pine trees. These trees would
Rpring up and soon become so thick
that the average farmer employed
the quickest method to get them out
of his way. If these fires spread and
burned off many acres it suited the
farmer better because it burned
undergrowth that was of no use
in the words of the entertaining
speaker on Herty Day, even the
samllcst pine sapling today can say,
A few day sago the people of this
county had the pleasure of listening
to one of the world’s great chemists
who ha« devoted many years of re
search to help Georgia overcome her
poverty. He told of how he had suc
cessfully made paper from Georgia
pine. One significant fact about Dr.
Herty’s statements was the manner
in which he stressed the possibilities
of the pnper industry in br'nging
million* of dollars in new capital To
Georjria to enrich our people. The
people who heard these statements
ran do untold good by informing
more ignorant citizens of the folly of
burning or destroying wooded land.
We are convinced that the work that
Dr. Herty has done will mei
in lifting our people Into t
prosperous state. We fail to sec how
anyone misses seein_ the possibil’t’es
in the future prosperity of Georgia.
The organization of a Baldwin
Coun’v Forestry Association was at
tempted but little progress t
made C'tizens should not delay
unicing with th*- v ! tally important
organization and should take
mediate steps in stopping the waste
of our wooded land.
BETTER DAYS AHEAD
The opportunity schools which
have been opened to afford educa
tional advantages for children and
grown-ups have not only opened the
way to a reduction of illteraev in
Georgia, but have also given employ
ment to n number of deserving school
teachers
Mr. Roosevelt and the administr*
tion who authorize these schools d<d
po first and foremost to help the
teachers Toe President is now work
ing out o>*hcr plans to not onlv
broaden educational advantages b<
to see that teachers are raid the
ralnr’es and paid adequately ar
promptly.
The teachers In the comm*
schools In both the c ! tv and the com
ty have little to complain about be
cause they have alwavs been pa s d
promntlv and in full. When we look
at the situation in Chicago and
in other Georgia counties we
thankful for the splendid adminis
trate of our own sehols. Many
teachers today have gone months
without receiving a cent in paymer*
for their services.
We hope, however, that bu-ine-s
will soon increase and tag coffers
will be fflkd sufficiently to warrant
SB increase in teachers salaries.
Teachers have always been bisnffrl
ently paid for the amount of ser
vices required of them. The tme
friends of education are anxiou* to
**€ many big improvements in the
pay of the teachers in the future
Them are many necessary steps to
bo tak-m, but the most Important Is
a merns of increasing the income for
educational purposes. The teachers

THE SENIOR EDITORS
ANNIVERSARIES
R. B. Moore, Senior Editor of The
Union-Recorder, passed a b rthday
anniversary .Saturday, February 3rd.
and this issue marks the beginning
of the forty-fifth year he has be*
associated with the paper as associate
editor, editor and publifher. Hi* con
nection with The Union-Recorder
date* several years prior to that time
as he learned to set tyoe in his early
years, and coon after parsing into his
teen* war regularly employed in the
effice. In 1902 he succeeded hi.»
father, the late Mr. Jere N. Moore,
as editor.
His whole life has been centered
around The Union-Recorder, and for
practically half a century his thought
time and efforts have been devoted
to its publication, and through its
columns to the interest and welfare
of the people of this community.
He has always tried to keep in
mind the responsibility that was hi*,
and publish a paper that would be
credit to the people of Milledgesrille
and Baldwin county, worthy of their
commendation, approval and support,
and make it a useful and effective
influence for the advancement and
up building of h : s city and county.
As he reviews the past on these
two anniversaries, he realises that
he has fallen far short of measuring
up to the responsibility* and oppor
tunities that have come to him dur
ing these years, as, with his mind 1
eye, he sees the many mistakes he
has made, and what he might have
done had he been wiser, more alert
and more thoughtful. Of course,
these realizations bring the keenei
regrets, but it also stimulates the
desire to profit by the mistakes that
have been made, and a determina
tion to more earnest endeavors.
While anniversaries have brought
retrospection to the writer, they have
also brought to h m the spirit of
con r ecration to the duties that will
come to him in the future in his re
lationship to this community
Senior editor and publisher of The
Union-Recorder. He will enter the
new year with renewed energy,
(leaver and deternrnution to give hi 1
beat thoughts and what talents he has
> keep the paper at the highest
andard, and make it more u
filling its mission in this community.
He in grateful to the people among
whom he has spent his life for
the consideration they have shown
him. and the sp’rit of friendlines-
• hey manifested towards The Union-
Recorder, as they have patronized
it, thus making it possible to con
tinue its operation.
The Senior Editor has associated
with him his son, Jere N. Moore.
