The assurances OF support receiv-
ed BY George Huffman from All parts
OF the county and from members Of
all parties indicates that It IL merely
a matter OF the size OF HIS majority

CONGRESSMAN Rees was one of the

as rural delivery" said he today,
"and with the telephone, free de-
livery and parcels post the farmer
is going to have more conveniences
at his door than ever in our history.
1t was one Of the big things done
by congress and am glad to have
helped secure the law"
The campaign OF the county can
didates is coming along in fine
style. "The only thing that re-
mains is for all the Republicans OF
the county to get behind and push
in the closing days of the campaign
in order that we may elect those for
whom we voted so strongly in the
August primaries" said an old coun-
ty official today. land | believe that
the sentiment is such that we are
going to end the campaign In an
old fashioned whirlwind of good
feeling and harmony. that will dem
onstrate our united efforts in the
choice of our candidates, when the
result is known on the morning
following election day"

The Republican ticket will occupy
the first place on the ballot, and

Of the Georgian one Of the greatest

been Of untold value not only to the

We can but regret that he has relin-

that have ever dominated him, and it
can be safely predicted that the paper
will continue the work that has been
so well begun.

farmer friends should, we. think, give
careful consideration TO this plan. 1t
contains the means of salvation to
al, South--t'lc curlailing OF the
acrcag" planted in cotton
During this month every farmer
in Oconec will be visited by men Sc
lcctcd to canvass the county to take
pledges for the reduction Of cotton
acreage. and it is to be hoped that
there will not be one who will refuse
to agree to cut down the acreage he
has been planting in cotton. And
when that pledge is made, stick to it..
Don't bother about what your neigh
Dor is going to do. Do the square
and honest thing yourself, and leave
your ncighbor's conduct to his con-
science.
This question Of acreage reduction
is but question Of SeIf-help. 1t
means your salvation. Diversifica
ton of crops is the end that will be
ACCOMPLISHED by carving ont the
