Why not Issue bonds in denominations of $lO and upwards; seD at par at home; keep Augusta's debts at h&me; pay Au gusta's Interest bill to A. gusta people; say to the world that Augusta makes its own goods, buys Its own goods, spends its own money and pays Inter est only to Its own people? Other cities do this. Why not we? If you do not believe It, try to buy a New England town bond at par. Yours truly, JOHN W. now. Principal, Summerville Academy. Augusta, Ga„ November 14th, 1914. bus, Ga, has before it at the present time a proposition to put up and main tain a permanent exhibit of Columbus made goods. It is proposed that a build ing with plate glasH wlndowa on all four sides be erected in the center of one of the busiest atreets of Columbus to house the exhibit. This week Augusta manufacturers will make exhibits and displays of their pro ducts In the show windows of the city's most enterprising retail business houses. Live at Home Week begins tomorrow morning. If these exhibits are worth the looking at by Augusta people, would not there he benefit and profit to the cltv In making such Jin exhibit a perma nent thing? Would it not be worth the wlilie to have these Augusta-made pro ducts where Augusta's thousands of visitors might se6 them at any tlins dur ing the yenr? RIGHT H BEST TIME TO BUILD When European War Is Ended Building Material Will Ad vance in Price and Labor Will Be Higher---Live at Home Week Time to Make Building Plans. There has not been g better time in the history of the country for build ing than right now. Material Is cheap er. on account of the European war, than It will be again In a decade after the war is over, peace has been de clared and work of repairing the wreck and ruin Is begun. Whole cities and towns must necessarily be rebuilt, and the world Is not so large that any big movement, whether constructive or de structive, on the other side of the At lantic, does not affect conditions on this side. The European war has proven that fact. During Live at Home Week begin to think about building. Look up those plans you were making or con templating before the tocsin of war sounded. Get them out of the pigeon hole. Build now If you would save yourself money. There are more laborers to be se cured now’, says a leading dally of the South In commenting editorially on the situation with regards to building and the advisability of building now, than will be possible when the building boom opens after world-wide business gets Into peaceful channels again. While the demand may not be so great for houses to rent now, there will be a demand for them by the time they are completed and ready for occu pancy. When the fighting In Europe ends, there Is going to be a world-wide In dustrial uwakening. The tendency In this country will be toward the South —to get the South American trade and the vast business that will originate as a result of the opening of the Pan ama canal. Not only in an agricultural way, but Industrially, the South is going for ward with strides such as she has never before known. Southern cities are going to become distributing cen ters, not only of the v ast resources of the fields, farms and Southern fac tories. but of the large Northern fac tories which must needs get nearer thetr Soutliern territory lu order to hold and to facilitate the trade. The skies nave never been brighter with signs of promise than they are right now. The voice of wisdom says: "Make ready for the feast before the day cometh *’ Those who expect to build will not have a better opportu nity than right now. A GIFTED HEADLINE WRITER. A certain man in Spvncervtlle com mitted suicide; Upon a rafter hanged himself, anJ did a good Job—died The sage scribe of the Clarion wrote out this headline pat: From Rafter to Hereafter," and let It go at that. ’ School Exhibits and Contests Among Most Important Features Tubman High School, Academy of Richmond County and John Milledge School to Have Demonstration and Exhibits of Domestic Science and Manual Training Work.

In many cases the qualifications of the appli cants are small, but she regards be ing a Red Cross nurse as romantic and fascinating and would go without thinking of the serious side of the matter. “Affectional and emotional nursing,” Is the way Sir James Creichton- Browne described it lr> an address be fore the Kensington District Nursing Association. ‘‘There Is a good deal of spurious nursing about this time,” he went on to say. ”1 heard the other day of a fashionable lady who called on a matron at a provincial hospital and said: ‘I wish to have a week’s training as a nurse on any terms you like. But I cannot give more than a week to It, for I want to go to the front.’ “That sort of thing,” said Sir Jame 3, “is highly reprehensible, for in no branch of nursing Is consumate skill required more than in the mangement of wounds and The wounded.
