A TRIP TO THE CHATTAHOOCMEE
RIVER.

In company with my friend Mr.. Bob
Hicks we went to the Chattahoochee
river last week. l was surprised to
find that such an enterprise had begun
so near us. | found that the Electric
and Power Company had commenced
in good faith. They have completed a
beautiful hotel. One of our Cobb coun-
ty boys, Mr.. w. B. Westbrooks, is fore
man of the building gang also found
Mr.. Jim Daniel, Mr.. Bud Tanner and
Mr.. Lee Bishop going down getting a
$l.0O per day, also Charley and George
Sullivan have found their way over
| there and are at work. Now, boys, l
know that crops are very short. but
where there is will there is a way.
know that it takes grit to stand the
work that is going on, but if you want
job for one dollar per day you can
get it. If any of you men that have
good teams want work for them go
over and get job but you must not
go with "little leather wings" for they
can't stand the racket. You must have
good stock that can stand to pull any
| thing, for they are boring with big
augers over there. 1t would be good
| place for some machinists to locate for
they are going to have lots of machn
cry there, After visiting the Electric
| plant l took Mr.. Bob Hicks IN row
boat and launched into the river and
caught some Chattahoochee mud catss
fish. After catching as many as we
wanted, we started for home. We en-
| joyed eating watermelous and peaches
furnished by our clever friend Charley
| johnson. | am now back at home
ready for business

In these busy days, that seem to
come and go with ever increasing rap
idity, and which we treat as though
they were opportunities for the indul-
gence of carnal appetites merely, you
hear men talk about "killing time"
Oh, better kill anything than time !;
better waste anything than the mo-
ments lit as yet with the light of hope !;
better fritter away any wealth that
happens to be in your possession than
these days overlooking with grace and
tenderness of God for every day is an
opportunity to choose, and each choice
is the building of another stone into
the foundation work, on which eternity
will erect the structure, a structure
true to the character of the foundation
