chinery, industrial work of various
kinds, arts and sciences, school work
home work, handicraft work and oth
er useful endeavors. No matter what
kind of exhibit any one desires, it wil
be found at the Southeastern Fair In
Atlanta, October 8 to 17, inclusive.
"More than ever the Southeastern Fair
has become one of the South’s leading
educational institutions," according to
F. 3. Paxon, president of the 1925 South
eastern Fair, in discussing the edu
cational fentures recently. "It shows
more clearly how the Southern farmer
has learned how to moke the best pos
sible out of his soil, and how ther
Is a general development that has nev
er been shown before." It brings to
gether all classes of humanity, the
farmer, the business man, the profes
sional man, the woman interested In
industrial and domestic nlfalrs and the
children who nre just beginning to be
come Interested in some particular line
of activity of life.
The Southeastern Fair gives each
pe*son a great opportunity to see what
the other fellow is accomplishing, Rnd
an opportunity to learn how such feats
are accomplished a*d sends every one
away from the Fair with a renewed
determination to do better things than
ever before in his particular line of
activity.
Few people realize how great ar
educational Institution- the Fair re
ally Is. and what tremendous effort!
are being put forth each year by the
Fair officials to give a clear concep
tion of the advantages and opportuni
ties that lie within our grasps. II
is a known fact that the Fair spend!
each year In premiums and for edu
catlonaj exhibits approximately hi
much tre the State appropriates for th
upkeep of one of its largest institn
tlonR of higher learning.
The Southeastern Fair Is a grca
mirror of progress in which there i
room for every one to gaze, and thi.
year it will have more prognoHs to re
fleet than in any previous year of il
history.
The railroads are lending every ef
fort to make the 1925 Sctutheasteri
Fair a success, and greatly reduce'
rates will apply on every line lead
ing Into Atlanta during the first te
days in October. Special excursio
rates and special day rates will be ir

’Well, I don’t quite know,” he snld,
"excepting t that I got off on the right
T°‘»t, and that gave me courage.
There’s nothing helps so much to win
a race as getting a good start.’’
It is true in everything we attempt,
There was Gregory. He was a hard

hut not brilliant. He forged ahead
,-n Pldly until at forty lie was the gen

house of which he was a member.
“It was the start I got which did
It,” he explained to me once. “I did
tny best from the outset; I finished
every job I began, and I never put
off until tomorrow a thing which
should have been done today.” -
Tears ago I read a story of a little

He was P^fully poor, ill fed and half
naked; but he was ambitious. He
wanted very much to learn to read,
but he had no teacher.
“I reckon a feller could learn him
self at the beglnnin',” he said to a
friend. “It must be easy at the start,
and then after it got hard I might get
somebody to help me."
But he was wrong. The start Is
the most difficult in any enterprise,
in any business, in any new under
filling. Well begun is usually much
inpre than half done. It Is part of
the optimism of youth to feel that
time and opportunity lost in the be
ginning may easily lie made up In the
end, hut It isn't true. There’s noth
ing like gelling off on the right fool.
