The year 1909 was a memorable year in the Dalton District. You t ' made a record that has never before f: been equaled in the District. For } the first half of the year, the farm ’ i ers were hindered by the constant r' rains In preparing their ground and - In planting and cultivating their ' crops. Much of the best bottom land j was never planted at all. The I drouth in August cut off the cotton 1 and ruined much of the late corn, ’ in addition, the hailstorm that visit , ed portions of our District in Octo ber destroyed hundreds of bales of 1 cotton. In spite of these adverse condi tions the financial showing Is the ' best the District has ever made. I ; i have yet to hear of whining or com : plaining from anyone. This is so i unusual that it deserves special men ; tion. Any people, when so sorely I tried, who bring no charge a i gainst Providence, who, in spite jof short crops and light pockets, nevertheless arc loyal to their ob-1 ! ligations and true to their church, | have in them the manhood and I womanhood which God can use iin building up and extending His j Kingdom in the earth. If I may I be pardoned for using the ex i pression, I am proud of my people and am filled with hope for the fu ture. But better than the financial re tard which the Dalton District made in 1909 is the spiritual progress which lias been made. Do you know , that about 460 souls have been add ed to the churche? What does that . mean? We have enough new mem , i bers to form a strong circuit of four ■ cd to the church? What does that . one of them. Doesn’t that spell . growth? And isn’t that something to be thankful for? I am satisfied that tho general revival spirit which has pervaded the District, resulting in the large addition to our member ship, is largely the cause of the good financial showing for the year 1909. The splendid record of the year just behind us is our argument for makiag further progress during the year upon which we have just en tered. Nobody is discouraged. From two charges I have already received i; letters telling me that they are go- I Ing ahead of what they did last year. I like the ring of the letters. They say ‘‘Wo mean business.’’ That Is precisely it. We mean business for the Lord as much as we do for our selves. To do business successfully, one must, have a method. An up-to date farmer does’n wait till the first |of March to prepare for making a 1 j crop. He begins his deep plowing ‘I long before Christmas. The first of January finds him getting thiags ready, the first of February finds - him still at it, and so he keeps at It until his labors are rewarded with good crops. All successful laborers in the vineyard of the Lord know j that His work must be done in the •; same way. For instance, quite a I number of stewards and others are I | adopting the plan of ‘‘paying the i preacher” by the month. That Is wise. Those who adopt this plan find iit much easier to meet their flnan- > I | < ial obligations to the church. It * 1 would be easier and better still to iadopt St. Paul's plan (1 Cor. 16:2), ' .‘‘l'pon the first day of the week i (Sunday) let every one of you lay by him in store." That is the wisest plan. Those who practice It give vastly more than they did when they paid onee a quarter or once a year, and without feeling that it is a bur joy. There ought, to bo as much pleasure and profit in paying as den. On the contrary, it becomes a there is in praying, for both are parts o' our religion. I have saved the most inmportant words for the last. How can we best build up the Master’s Kingdom and help on the final conquest of the world? The Book tells us to do all that we do to the glory of God. All means all. not a part. If we are go ing to follow Christ, we mast follow Him all the time and in all things. He says "Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness." That means, above everthing else, we must strive to build up His Kingdom. That requires forethought, planning, preparation. Now is the time to do this, it will never do to put off till July getting ready for a revival in August. No farmer would be so fool ish as to plant corn the first of Au gust, expecting it to mature before frost. We want greater revivals, more souls converted, more develop ment of spiritual life than ever in our history. Shall we have what we I want? "Plan great things for God. Expect great things from God." ' With more than 9,000 Methodists, the Dalton District constitutes a • mighty army for tho right. All standing together, all praying togeth er, all fighting and working togeth-! er, the Lord of hosts leading. »hen the preachers gather at Athens next November, the reports they will car jry up will cause the angels to re ' joke.

GORDON LEE’S FRANKNESS. . i The most remarkable political move I ever made in the state, perhaps, is -a letter just issued by the Hon- Gor i don Leo to his constituents. ■ The circumstances calling forth r the letter are themselves quite un -1 usual. When Mr. Lee announced t his candidacy for his present term in I Congress he stated that he would not. -i be a candidate to succeed himself.’ I When another two years of acquain- I - tence with him and his methods of i serving them had opened the eyes of | , the people to the fact that this dis ■ ; trict had in Mr. Lee just about the j ; best representative it had ever had, j ’ they began to express their disap-; proval. The prospect of having to ! I give him up at the very zenith of his I j usefulness and break In a new and ; j untried man for the place did notl appeal to the hard-headed business! ; sense that is characteristic of the ma i jority of his constituents. I During his round through the ' counties the past few months he met ,so many expressions of dissatifac tion with his proposed retirement j that he was forced to take notice. I The papers of the district, voicing ’ the sentiments of the communities in ' which they were Issued, were almost a unit in favor of his return to con gress. But there was his published state ment that he would not again be a candidate. What about that? The answer came promptly and from divers sources, that he had not con sulted his people, who had the first , and strongest claim upon him, before making that announcement. So to settle definately and without worry or expense to anybody but j himself, the question as to whether . he should again stand for reelection he adopted heroic measures. He is- I sued the letter over the district asking ( if it were the desire of his constitu ents that he offer for another term, , and inclosing and addressed post-card for reply. The recipients of the let ters have nothing to do but write I "yes" or “no" on the card, sign it and drop it in a mail box. The plan is original and possibly perilous to Its author. He has put it in the power of his constituents to quietly and easily dispose of him if they so desire. On the other hand 1 it also puts It in their power to give him much a decisive and unequivocal call for further service that he cannot disregard it. This straightforward method of go ing directly to the people, the source of all power and authority in this country, for an answer to a question that deeply concerns them is charac teristic of Gordon Lee. It never oc curred to him, apparently, that there was a much less expensive method in vogue and generally practiced. Some aspirants for public honors content themselves with visiting the county seats and consulting the politicians that hang around there and are sup posed to "control" things. It would seem to be a proper thing 1 for the people to meet Mr. Lee’s candor with equal frankness and give him prompt response to his in quiry.—Dalton Argus.

In addressing the Poor Richard Club of Philadelphia recently, Mr. T. A. DeWeese of Buffalo, impressed his hearers with the importance of persistency in advertising. Among many other substantial ideas embodi ed in the address of Mr. DeWeesc is the following: "There is no advertising value in the one time insertion. “It is keeping everlasting at it which bring results in advertising. “It is the consecutive, presistent pounding away that does the trick in advertising. “The advertiser that does this year after year is the man who knows that advertising pays. “With him it is not an experiment, neither is it an expense. “It is a part of his investment the same as the cost of raw material and the cost of production."
