RAIN STOPPED
MOTORCYCLE RACES

The motorcycle races planned
for yesterday afternoon were
stopped at the last minute by
rain which made the track so
slippery it was impossible for the
boys to ride.
The boys who are getting up
these races assured us today that
the races would be run off the
first clear day and next Tuesday
is the day set to try it again.
The track has been put in first
class condition so that rain will
hardly have a bad effect on it
and day of sunny weather will
make it possible to hold the races.
The local riders all expressed
themselves as being glad that
Harry Glenn, the crack Atlanta
rider did not show up. Glenn
holds all the state records on dirt
tracks and straightaways, and as
there is to be one hundred dollars
up in cash prizes. the boys were
naturally glad he didn't come.
Weather permitting the public
will be given a chance next Tues
day to see some of this most ex-
citing sport.

7. Smith of the local Union pre-
sided and introduced the speak

fully repaid for the time spent.
He is a clear speaker and has the
ability to keep his audience we'll
interested. In an hours speech,
Mr.. Kline covered the whole field
of Labor as it is related to the men
in the shops and the traffic de-
partments of the railways Of the
Nation. The close attention with
which his hearers received the
message speaks we'll for the
future of organized labor. Free
from radicalism Mr.. Kline
advised closer relationship
between members and organ
izations of the different trades
involved and feelingly referred to
the trouble now being encounter
ed on the &c. Mr.. Kline was fol-
lowedby short address from the
irrepresible John Cone, Yard

quainted with it's history.

THIRD DISTRICT CLUB NEWS NOTES
MRS. j. B. WALL. Renorfor

In December of 1906 the Fed
Grafton decided to observe Wash
ington's birthday as Library
Day. Since the action has never
been rescinded it is the presump-
ton that al | clubs are observing
the d a y in some appropriate
way. Mrs. Trox Bankston, Chair
man of Library Extension is urg-
ing n her first message the
Club women Of Gorgia to cele-
brate Library Day in a substan-
tial way. She suggests various
ways that will be Of intellectual
and practical benefit to women.
The Federation at one time pos.
sessed a Loan Library, but this
has been so worn from use, and
a number of the books have been
carelessly kept by the Clubs that
borrowed them, that this Circu-
lating Library has been sadly
depleted. Mrs. Bankston sug-
gest that each Club give one
good book or money enough to
buy one, so that when the fall
work begins in the Clubs in o.
tober a new and complete Libra
ry will ready for use and distri-
button.
Library Day will be a great,
success in our District, if in adj
dition to needing this zone good

suggestion of Mrs. Bankston, if
each Club will have a Book
Shower for the rural schools
in our seperate counties, Many
of these schools have no libraries
many not even a nucleus for one
In so many Ehomes there are
numbers Of readable books dusty
on the shelves for lack of use.
Many Of the pocket books hold
enough spare money to buy a
book that will gladen and bene-
fit many a book loving child
or parent. A Club might SUBJ
scribe for the Youths Compan-
ion or some other weekly or
monthly magazine for a rural
school. Much is said Of the
need Of books in tn e
North Georgia Schools. TIL e
need in our dear South Georgia
schools is almost as great. Our
children need books too.

the regular meetings of our Wo-
mans Club at our Club House,
and from the large attendance
on Wednesday, Feb 3. we think
the majority Of our club women
believe thus. Since having our

Improbable Trickery

Between the beginning OF the ship
ping season last autumn and Febru-
airy / OF the present year 10000 bar
rels OF apples were received in Ger
many from the New England states,
1860 barrels from New York, Vir-
ginia and Pennsylvania and about 30,
600 barrels from Nova Scotia.
Why the consignments from the
regions mentioned were no, larger is
explained in part by the following
statement made to one Of our consuls
by a Berlin man in the trade.
III the American people in the
East wish 20 increase their exports

that they refrain from placing infer

Too many merchants look upon

sympathy or sentiment should be
wasted on small town merchants
who complain about the mail order
concerns but persistently refuse 10

they have TO offer. There is a lot
OF good ink wasted on the future Of
the merchants in the small towns.
They have a decided advantage over

Clippe:
The country merchant will always

even the score II he will follow IN,
advice laid down By the Clippe:.
The mail order houses get their bust
ness wholly by advertising. They
are all the time letting people know
what they have and how cheap they
will sell il and how promptly they
will send the articles by parcel post.
The country merchant on the other
hand fills his shelves full OF goods
and then waits for people TO come
around and ask for them. In many
things the country merchant has the
advantage. He can make his deliv-
cry more promptly He can invite
his customers to come in and talk
over what they want Il they are not
quite sure. II things prove not suit
able for the purpose for which they
are intended he can often exchange
with only a small charge for the SER
vice. His first essential thought is
to let the people know that he is
ready and willing TO serve them aud
that he has the goods to supply their
needs. II does no good to put enc an
nouncement in the paper and leave il
there week after week. Advertising,
just like the reading matter in a
paper, must be new and alive. If
the country merchant will spend
from fifty cents to three dollars a
week, according to the size of his
business, in his local paper, doing 1t
persistently the year around, making
every advertisement n new one. and
will back 1t up by prompt service
and honest values. he need have no
fear of the competition from the
mail order houses.
