But it does not follow that if a flow of outside capital is directed to South GGeorgia every city and every county in this section of the State will profit equally On thecontrary it is certain that some cities and some counties will benefit more than others. • Those cries and cmfnties which take the lead in at tracting, outride nvcstmcnts will be hsoe that are most at work for htemselves. ; No outsider cares to invest his- money in a city where the cit'zzens are riot willing to work for their own best interests, or in a County where the* farmers are indiffer ■ ent about the agricultural possobilities. You would not care to purchase a half interest in a store the proprietor of. which gave no attention to it and never worked.for its success. The same reasoning is made by outside investors.

By George Matthew Adama I have always been afraid of promises, but ithas al ways thrilled me to fulfill where made no promise to doso. For, after all, the, greatest person to whom you can make a promise is none other than your own self. And un der nocorcumstances should you disappoint yourself. Keep the agreement that you make with yourself. Any man will trust another man who has proved that he can trust himself. We should always have secret agreements with our selves to do certain important things from day to day. And thest agreements should be kept to the letter. We can’t handle an adversary until we have learned to handle ourselves. Make few or no promises. I came across a man recently who told me of a very successful business man—a man who has amassed mil ’ions And this is what my friend told me was what made that success large possible. He said that this builder al ways put down in b’ack and white exactly what he sold 'or a consideration and that the buyer knew exactly what he was getting. He made no promise merely in order to close a sale. If you do make a promise, be sure that you keep it. I know cf a man who pledged to himself that he would do certain thu gs for a period cf ten years. And he is following out that pledge, to the letter. And in all this man does, yousee a sureness and definiteness of action that is absent in mest workers. When Columbus sailed from the shores of Spain, he carried a secret promise in his heart. There is something very strong about the man who carries promises in his heart and who weans to keep them. the year 1924. Tenants in posession and defendents in iffa, notified in terms of the iaw.
