ENERGETIC WORK IS REQUIRED
II Making Any City Greater and
Grander.

While Amerieus is doing nothing to
the end OF getting more manufacturing
enterprises, railroads or such develop
ers her gradual and permanent growth
is evidenced upon every side. Today
Americas population 10 larger than
ever in her history and is fast nearing
the eleven thousand mark. While 900
dwellings have been erected here with
in the past three or four years, there is
not vacant one today for any family
desiring to come here. Town building
i hard work even under favorable con-
diuoIs. It demands always the best
thought of people to bring out all that
is good and beautiful in any location.
One grumbling Individual may often
do more effective tearing down than
forty active men can build up in given
season. There is but one way to over
come such difficulties and that is
through perfect organization. Every
man should understand his duties in
the process of town building. The
motto of the greatest good to the
greatest numbers should always be
considered. No town has reached the
limit when public sentiment can favor
a discontlnuance of general improve
ments. There are parks to be planted
streets to be opened and enterprises tc
be fostered, and Americas needs tt
get TO work upon this line.

Heavy sales OF spot cotton continue
in all of the smaller towns in the terri
tory about Americus, and practically
all of this is finding it's way here to be
compressed. The Americas press
is almost as busy now as at
any time during the cotton season,
and will so continue for month yet.
Daring this week alone between 1900
and 1000 bales cotton have been shipped
to Americas for compression and more
of 1t Is coming. In addition to this
outside cotton several hundred bales
are being turned out of Americas
warehouses for compression and ship
ment- Receipts of plantation cotton

a GROWING FIELD OF AGENTS
Americus Has Large and Active
Working Army

Americas evidently presents wide
and fertile field for the life insurance
hustler. This is videnced In the fact,
according to careful count, there are q
total OF forty life insurance canvassers
here, and all the returns not yet. in.
Quite recently, it is said, travelling
man for wholesale house came to
Amerieus and, upon being told how
the local army of agents was Oyamaiz-
ing the situation in the achievement of
great victories, sent in his resignation
and sample cases and forthwith took
an insurance agency. Another young
salaried man here, 1t is SAID, recently
threw up 500 job and joined the in
surfing hosts. And while the field
may be we'll worked it has been pro-
life of good crops and all the merry
agents are happy on the way.
