WATCH US
Indeed, Chattooga Countians,
including the farmers, the mer
chants, the businessmen, and the
factory workers were stimulated
last week by the fine exhibits
which were displayed at the an
nual Fair.
It makes all of our hearts glad
when we realize the progress the
county is making today and we
realize that it is by the hands
of all, not by a mere few, that
Chattooga County is steadfastly
growing into one of the most
thriving sections of the state.
Recognition of this fact was
made by our fine friends, Ber
nard Street, Managing Editor of
the Rome News-Tribune, who
paid tribute to Chattooga County
in his “The Roaming Roman”
column Monday.
Mr. Street stated that his re
cent visit to this county was “a
refreshing experience in more
ways than one.”
At this season of the year, he
said, nature is at her best, “shin- i
ing in all her glory on the beauti
ful mountain drive to Summer-j
viile. The approach of winter has j
put a colorful hue on the forests.'
In addition to the stimulation of
the drive, a chat with civic lead- \
ers at Summerville makes one
realize the amazing progress be-;
ing made in that city and county.
“Mayor Willis James, Mose
Brinson, former Roman who is I
president of the Chattooga Coun-1
ty Chamber of Commerce, and
Rodman K. Eubanks, president,
of the Summerville Retail Mer- j
chants Association were all.
bubbling with enthusiasm. You|
not only see the progress being
made—you get in tune with
progress itself.”
Mr. Street quoted Mr. Eubanks
who declared that this county
has “an abundance of natural
resources, but our greatest re
sources are our pepole.”
In conclusion the Rome editor
stated that “Summerville and
Chattooga County are definitely
headed for greater accomplish
ments.”
Such kind remarks from our
very progressive neighbor, Rome,
are most gratifying and we here
are asking you neighbors from
all around to keep watching us.
We’re going to keep growing!

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Menlo, Ga., Oct. 15th 1948
Few of us ever expect to hear
our case judged by God. If we
would judge ourselves by his
divine word and correct our ways
accordingly, the mental strain
would soon vanish away. I note
the lie detector is being largely
used now rather than police to
dig out truth and in 76 percent
who have been tested they ac
knowledge their guilt. Some tak
ing small amounts from their
employers and some larger
j amounts. What a weight of guilt
| hangs over many individuals
that feel guilty, they suffer much
to hide guilt. There is no way to
enter life other than open con
fession of our sin. When He has
forgiven you then we have fel
lowship with the Father.
Yet we can again turn away
and walk in darkness when we
cease to watch and pray. He that
saith he has no sin is a liar and
| the truth is not in him. But now
| should we fall away we have an
J advocate in Jesus Christ, we
again acknowledge our sin and
guilt and he is faithful to for
givJ and put us on our feet
again.
The good book says. “Every one
of us shall give an account of
himself to God, He that hath the
son hath life and he tnat hath
not the son hath not life. We
have an advocate in Jesus Christ.
Hasten and employ him.

Berryton Message
The poor cast down is he to j
J blame?
St. Luke-10-30; Jesus answer
ed, said; “A certain man went
down from Jerusalem to Jerico
and fell among thieves, which;
stripped him of his raiments and
wounded him and departed leav
ing him half dead”. Yes out of
| the three the good Samaritan
j was equipped with compassion
j and first aid and with transpor
j tation.
As you know the strong should
jbear with the weak. How does
| one feel who can find no
! friends? Do you see him as he
Jgoes to his house his best cloths
which are patched, hang behind
the door, his babies are ragged
J and crying, his wife is saying we
| need food and clothing for the
: children, his job is ceased, his
debts are manv, sickness and
| short time, a bad manager and
| slow in mind and weak in body,
jhe is down with a sad heart, his
j rent is due and on the street the
only one who recognizes him is
the ones who are trying to col
lect., what can a man like that
| see to make him happy? Could
this be why some committ self
murder? How would you like to be
the tender heart to recognize this
poor old ragged beggar? To greet
him with kindness telling him
; about Christ and the promise to
| the poor, and then divide your
i food with him and help him work
out his rent and cheer the chil
dren with a little new dress, and
help him just to know that he
had just one earthly friend who
cares? Then you have made a
mark that will follow you to the
! hour of death. When the cold
| hands of death begin to close on
you to take you into eternity to
| say, “Lord I am unworthy, but
but I made one old beggar happy
j in this short life.” Oh people, if
[ only once in this life I can be a
good Samaritan to just one, T
j surely will forever rejoice in my
| king Lord. To know that once T
followed him in Grace.
Remember the radio hour on
morning, 10:00 a. m., Ga., time
and come to the Berryton Baptist
Church, each Sunday and Sun T .
day night. adv.
