The Brunswick news., 1912-10-19
Mr.. Richards Speaks.

Toastmaster Haym neat introduced
M. V. Richards, land and industrial
agent of the Southern Railway, who
opened his remarks by quoting the
ed that he always has been and al
ways will be for Brunswick" Mr.
4.Icnards also said Take what you
have in hand and use it to the best
advantage. You have a foundation
unsurpassed in the southern country
Brunswick has great resources and
natural advantages and it is up to
the people here to make use of them
am glad to be here tonight and join
with you in making the Brunswick
board of trade one of the greatest in
the country. l am anxious to see the
cities of the South the greatest on
earth, and Brunswick among the
great ones. You have the base to
work on and l have faith in you. 1t
is up to you, gentlemen, and We will
endeavor to do our part
THE Brunswick board of trade can
be made model organization by the
cooperation of all the people of Bruins
wick and by the spirit of the gath
ering shown here tonight | can see
you are going TO do it."
Col. J. w. Bennett, who has con-
tributed much to the good roads
movement, was next introduced by the
POSTMASTER as "the best asset of
Brunswick in its campaign for farm
lands and good roads" Colonel Ben
net said in part: Among the things
you must do if this community ex-
poets to progress is to develop good
roads. Other counties in the state
have had bond issues of from $4,000
to 100000 for this purpose and have
found them wise, judicious and ad-
vantageous investments.
Brunswick and Glynn county have
great resources and a most inviting
future, but we must have a system
of well-built roads in order properly
to develop this section. 1t is not the
spasmodic effort that does things. You
must work day by day, week by
week, month by month, year by year,
and you will accomplish things
H. T. Yaryan of the Yaryan Naval
Stores company, was next introduced
and made one of the hits of the even
ing. In opening Mr.. Yaryan said he
didn't know whether the gathering
was a love feast or a confessional,
but he hoped the latter. Brunswick
has great natural advantages, sa4d
Mr.. Yaryan, but the Lord has gone
about as far as He can and you have
got to do the rest. LAS representa-
tive of the Yaryan company | will say
that Brunswick has made good with
us in every way; you have done all
you promised in bringing us here and
have adopted an extremely liberal
policy in all your dealings with us,
which should have great weight with
other interests seeking location.
About the only complaint l have
against Brunswick is the bad facilities
for getting in and out of the city"
MI. Yaryan also stated that the city
was unfortunate in not being on the
main line of the big roads, but that
disadvantage could be overcome. At
the same time he paid high compli-
ment to the A., B. & A. for their fine
service and liberal policy toward his
company. He also stated that efforts
should be made toward locating
creosote plant and paper mill in
Brunswick, and added that the Var
yam company might build a paper mill.
Mr.. Yaryan concluded his remarks
amid great applause and much laugh
ter by stating that the ducking stoor
should be the punishment of the man
responsible for having the oak trees
cut down.
