Shall Anderson County have a Place In
the Picture ?

crops laid by, we should turn our atten-
ton in the direction Of Atlanta and have
an exhibit which will reflect credit and
do Justice to our County. We have 8
reputation abroad and we should main
tain 1t. We know that we have one OF
the best Counties in the State and we
must make other people have the same
opinion. This we can do, If we will
make the proper effort, and we call upon
all to do their part towards making the
best exhibit from our; State. It will
require united action to accomplish our

advise me what articles may be expected
from your County, and the approximate
quantities of each that will be sent. I
am especially anxious to receive at an
early date specimens of woods and min
erals, as they will have to be prepared for
exhibition. Specimens of building stones,
especially granite, must be large enough
to be dressed to cubes of eight inches. I
have arranged with the Rail- DAD Compa-
MES to bring to Columbia, free of charge,
all articles Intended for the exhibit, and
addressed to me as Commissioner. Per-
ishable articles, such as fruits, should,
however, be sent by express, collect. I
mail you package of shipping tags to
facilitate you in your work. Please see
that the blanks are properly filed out
before shipping.
It is extremely important that should
receive full and early information as to
what your County will do towards max
ing the State exhibit success, and
will, therefore, be obliged to you If you
will communicate with me at your earli-
est convenience. Yours very truly,
E. L. ROCHE, Commissioner.
We want to show all of our resources,
of whatever description. Let us have a
good exhibit or none at all. What say you,
fellow citizens
