The new south OF which Atlanta stands
as the gateway is fast coming into its
own. We stand today equipped with all
the modern appliances at hand: we have
harnessed everything in sight and we are
making good use of our natural resources
still we are pioneers. We stand today like
those sturdy men of years ago in the west
who blazed the way of civilization through
forest and over streams, who were beset
by insurmountable mountains, torrid des-
erts, wild animals and savages. What
those men accomplished so and more years
ago we of the present day and occupation
are driving with all the mental force and
energy in us through a wilderness of op-
portunities afforded by this great south
land with its undeveloped natural re-
sources and its hitherto little known nat
ural wealth. Business is the vehicle being
used to carry the gospel of prosperity to
this portion OF the country and II is be-
coming known more and more as we pro-
gress that we are fast reaching the stand
point of the lender of money rather than
that of the borrower. The secret of this
great improvement is confidence. We be-
lieve in ourselvs and in ach other. We
believe in tn country as a whole Fac
tional lines are obliterated and the north
ern business man, from the traveller to
the capitalist is being welcomed with
open arms. The new south has miles
and miles of undiscovered territory when

dollars brought into it up to now but we
want thousands more.

camille agency stands pre-eminent as a
monitor. We aim to maintain good or

correct where possible erroneous impress
sions of business houses against each
other. We are the recipients of the

PLEADS CHRISTIAN DUTY
TOWARD THE NEGRO RACE

Rev. ]. G. Snedecor. of Tuscaloosa.
Ala, delivered a sermon on the duty OF
the south toward the negro, Sunday night
at the First Presbyterian church. At
lanta. He took as the title Of his dis
course 1.-The Ethiopian Stranger" and as
his text the Goth and 31st verses of the
eighth chapter of Acts:
"And Philip ran thither to him and
heard him read the prophet, Esaias, and
said, 'Understandest thou what thou read
eSt?'
And he said, How can I, except some
man should guide me?'
In giving his views on the south's duty
toward the negro, DR.. Snedecor spoke
from the observation and experience OF
man who has studied the race question at
close range many years. He is secretary
of the mission work among negroes by
the Presbyterian churches. He was born
on a southern plantation. and knows
every phase of the negro's character and
every phase Of the problem growing out
of his presence in this country.
He said in his Introductory remarks
that he had chosen deliberately scrip
about the negro. We have met the Afri-
can providentially, he said.
I'VE have met him under the guidance
of Gods spirit" he continued. You ana
did not contrive the meeting; you anu
I are not responsible for the meeting.
But we are responsible for the issues
growing out of that meeting. 1t is a sac
ri.cge to say we are not responsible 10"
what our fathers and mothers did, and IL
is ignorant and cowardly in any southern
young man or any southern person to
deny the responsibility which rests upon
them for the presence Of the negro In
our midst.
GOD IS RESPONSIBLE.

missionary of our church. said before the

Of our modern world, that of credit.
With the insight into business condi-
lions which we have gained through act
ual contact with and examination of re-
sources and liabilities, of the small mer-
chant as well as the largest manufacturer
we are in a position to state without re-
serve that the present day despite the
fact that we are just now experiencing
a slight retrogression in point of wealth
er and crop conditions that this portion
of the country is in a healthy and pros
porous condition. We need business path
finders and scouts, business missionaries,
business educators, typographical soil
experts, mine and mineral experts. The
wealth Is here, we need the men to ferret
II out and dig it up.
In the territory embraced in this di-
vision comprising Georgia, Alabama,
Florida, North and South Carolina and
Tennessee, our company is holding its
finger on the business pulse and from
every district come reports of healthy and
prosperous conditions and great promises
