LOOKING BACK
Any one who desired to survey the
past year to discover for what he
might be thankful would not find
it a dull job. If we remember that
the original conception of Thanks
giving day by our Pilgrim fathers
was to thank God for having brought
them through great tribulation*
even those who may have lost faith
in the New Deal will find reason to
give thanks.
There are individuals who greet
Thanksgiving day as the cynic, but
it is not for them to be the rule and
guide of the nation. Our nation is
forging forward in building a new
economic structure that will build
for a permanent happiness and pros
perity for our people. All evidences
point to a better business year than
fer several years back. Under the
wise leadership of President Roose
velt. for which we may also be
thankful, the country has already
started a fast improvement from
the gloom of the days of the de
pression.
There is no reason for anyone who
studies the President’s program and
the underlying purposes need feel
worried and paniry about it There
is every reason to feel extremely
good over the prospects. The ac
complishments of the past year in
the direction of recovery and eco
nomic securietv should cheer us all
and cause a general thanksgiving. Something is radically wrong with

CLOSER COORDINATION- OF NR A ' 6 nsk of being swindled.
With the inform^™ gathered in ' f »WoniA>lc with
the series of conferences just con- - arc made of flies* legs.
eluded in 15 major business centers
between representatives of the Na
tional Eccoverey Administration and
local code authority groups, the
NIRB will not concentrate its activi
ties on an intensive effort for closer
coordination of local code adminis
trative agencies.
Suggestions received from the
field looking to closer coordination
were relayed to the group confer
ences. These groups, in turn, were
asked to comment and to formulate
other suggestions of their own. By
such a free interchange of ideas and
suggestions between local code au
thorities and headquarters repre
sentatives ’urther emphasis was
given to the dominating principle
of NRA—the self-government of
American business.
During these conferences particu
lar reference was made to plans
evolved in Seattle where local code
authorities meet as a group at regu
lar intervals for the discussion of
mutual problems, and in Boston,
which selected a committee of 11
rnd considered plans for concentrat
ing local code agencies.
From all suggestions rccrivcd ai
outline was evolved and laid be
fore the regional group conferences
for current discussion and future
consideration. This outline embodied
as one possibility, the concentration
or all local code authorities, with 11
divisional offices—one for each of
the industry or trade groups into
which the internal organization of
the National Recovercy Administra
tion is divided. These arc food, tex
tiles. basic materials, chemicals,
manufacturing, equipment, construc
tion. public utilities, graphic arts,
recreation, and distribution.

Remember that when you buy
from your home merchant you are
doing something towards contribut

The trash cans that have been in
use in the business section of the
city have about seen their best days,
and it might be well for the city to
purchase a new supply.
The merchants are looking for
ward to busy days from now until
Christmas. May their expectations
be realized!
It is only a limited No. of shop

looks like as if the holiday spirit

thronged with shopper* early and
late which is a sign that business is
on the upward trend and everyone
who has the welfare of their fe

Remember in making your Christ
mas purchases that the time of the
person who is waiting on you
valuable, and there are others to be
served.
A general rule that can be ap
plied successfully is that the person
who talks the most does the least.
There will be one more election
this year. Constables are to be elect
ed in the Militia Districts the first
Saturday in December.
Every citizen should have a Dart

and Community Chest.
Both the Baptist convention and
the South Georgia Methodist confer-
went on record favoring a sub
mission of the prohibition question
to the people in a referendum. These
two powerful organizations will have
big influence when the legisla
ture reaches this question in Jan
uary.
Possum hunting has started and
many families have already enjoy
ed ’possum and ‘taters this year.
There are plenty of the little ani

The person who does the most
good in the world is the one who
has th^ least to say about the things
he does for others.
Mule sales have started and the
increase demand is one of the signs
times are improving.
Tg the saying that life begins at
forty is true, few women will ack
nowledge that life has begun.
If we count all the blessings of the

things to be thankful for.
