WILL ADVERTISE AMERICUS
THROUGHOUT STATE.

1t is well that the city government
has united with the Board of Trade in
arranging for the entertainment Of
the Georgia Weekly Press Association
on its coming visit to this city. This
guarantees that the hospitality ex-
tended the visitors will not only be
official in its nature, but viii be more
elaborate than if it We're restricted
to the business organization whose
funds are. none too large and which
has work outlined drawing heavily
upon its limited resources.
While Americas, possessing the true
Southern spirit of hospitality, could
be relied upon to act the part of a
gracious and generous host without
regard to any subsequent benefits that
might accrue to it, it is, perhaps, not
amiss to direct attention to the fact
that. there is no advertising medium
that could do more effective good for
Americas and Sumter county just at
this time than the weekly press of the
state. The editors of these papers
are fully as generous as their hosts,
the spirit of reciprocity is deeply i'm
bedded in their nature, and the re-
Spouse they give to a cordial rece9-
ton is as gratifying as it is benef-
cial.
It has been the invariable rule, af-
ter such meetings as this, that the ed
itors of these papers devote consider
able space to their convention and the
features of the town in which they
were entertained that most impressed
them Coming to Americas for the
first time they are very apt to be de-
lighted with the beauty of the city,
with its air of comfort, with the evil
dences Of prosperity that abound, with
the high type of people that make up
its population. Going into the couu-
ty they cannot fail to be enthused
over fine roads, over the magnifi-
cent plantations, and be thoroughly
awakened to the vast possibilities CT
development that lie before a section
that has already made such rapid
and in which the signs of
advanced methods of agriculture are
apparent on all sides. These things
will undoubtedly be stressed in each
and every paper that has a represent
alive in Americas at the July con-
vention.
We are not directing attention to
the widespread advertising that both
city and county will receive for the
of awakening any laten spirit
of hospitality among our citizens. For
that is not necessary. As
the guests of Americas these visitors
would be assured a cordial welcome
and generous entertainment, even
though it We're not in their power to
say word that would advance the
interests of this city and county. But
there is nothing amiss in recalling at
this time that good deeds often bring
good fruits, and the pleasure Ameri-
Gus will find in entertaining the
Weekly Press Association will not
be diminished by our recollection of
the fact that we have so much to show
them and that they will have so much
to tell about Americas and Sumter
county that will be to our benefit

COMPLAIN OF
LACK OF LIGHT

Editor Of THE EVENING JOURNAL
We wish TO enter a complaint about
the lights in the northern part of
Brandywlne Park on Saturday night
there was not a light burning north
of clayton street. and Il was nearly im-
possible to find the approach az either
end of the new foot bridge. An em-
ployo OF the Augustine mills lost his
bearings and nearly fell in the Brandy
wine
It is impossible to use the paths over
the hill north of the bridge after dark
The lights have been bad ever since
the construction of the new bridge was
started. The new foot bridge has been
open for traffic for some time. and
whoever IS responsible for this state
Of affairs should take notice. We sup
pose the electric light wires would be
in the way of the construction Of the
new bridge, but people who have to use
the bridge at night should have some
consideration.
