Their reward was because of their

work There is but little promise held
out for a place in Gods kingdom to

of truth was that God is a just being
therefore He must deal justly. When
God comes to make up his estimate

he has done, but his wrong doing is

The question of duty involves each
man, each woman. There is labor
for all. A failure of any individual to
go work in the vineyard means that

unworked. Each one has part to per-

The Strength of Unity.

A representative assemblage of Hat |
tiesburgs best business men and tax
payers yesterday voted unanimously
to petition the city counc', for an
exemption of the proposed new plant
= of the J. j. Newman Lumber Company
from city taxes for a period of ten
years. The same meeting expressed
a desire to have all new manufactur-
ing industries exempted for the same
period
That simple statement alone
stretches across the horizon the bril-
liant rainbow of hope. and should,
we believe will, scatter the last rem
nant of pessimistic doubt that this
splendid city is sound at the core
and that business is to move forward
steadily and unchecked from this
time on.
The ]. ]. Newman Lumber Company
has not promised to rebuild, but there
is every reason to believe that it will
respond cheerfully to the persuasive
infuencs of the business men of Hat
tiesburg, who have shown their ap'
probation of the industry in a way
that is most convincing.
And the rebuilding of the Newman
min, with the added stimulus of ex
snption from municipal taxation
should be the beginning of an indus
trial era for Hattiesburg, already the
largest and most important city il
South Mississippi
The strength of unity on the par
Of the business interests of the city eX
