Hamilton.

DR., j. w. Ham, of the Baptist Taber
nacle in Atlanta, is the sort of a prach-
er-demagogue that weakens his own
church and his own cause by abusing
another church entitled to the same
rights as his. Such intolerance and
bigotry belong not to this century but
to the middle ages, and is violative of
the American spirit of freedom of wor-
ship. We need fewer Hams and more
Christians in this country, if Christian
ity is to progress as it should.

HER GOOD WORK KNOWN

Says the Macon News:
Miss Lou Hamilton, Home De
onstration Agent for Crisp coun-
ty, will make splendid report
of her years work when she at
tends the meeting Of the coun-
ty agents at the State College
Of Agriculture at Athens this
week One item in her report
will be that $4,000 pounds of
flour were conserved in Crisp,
and the canning products total
about $4,000. 1t is a pity that
every county in Georgia did not
have Miss Lou Hamilton"
Here is woman who loves her
FORK and believes she is working in
the best county in Georgia. She
knows what is going on-is fully con
yersant with every move for progress
and even has part in most of the
good work. Crisp county had con
scientious agent ahead of Miss Ham
ilton, a hard working representative
who kept in touch with club inter
ests.
Miss Hamilton has taken her work
and pushed ahead with it with great
energy. Although it is more than
likely that Crisp county is advanced
much further than any other coun-
ty in Georgia, as result, Miss Ham
lton always has great plans ahead
and usually accomplishes what she
sets out to do. Her work with the
girls of Crisp is telling. Wonderful
is manifest everywhere.
There is a reason fer this. Well
may others wish that every county
had a Miss Lou Hamilton. Georg a
would be the livest agricultural
state in the union.
1t is a wonderful opportunity for
the girls that so much interest is
being given to the club work by the
local home demonstration agent,

Four or five men have taken up the
plan to grow peaches for market and
this work will be pushed to a full
realization of the coed profits in
peaches. 1t need not bother the new
growers. If their yield is good, the
profits will be sure.
1t is to be hoped that Mr.. Turner
will have all the success which his
efforts deserve. That peaches can be
grown in Crisp county at profit
very good profit, is already settled
We want more men in the orchard
club and then we want an honest
study of the various ways to keep up
an orchard.
Referring to this club and its work
the Macon News says:
The Home Orchard Club in Crisp
county has a membership of twenty
three, and other names will soon be
added to this valuable organization.
The members of the club obligate
themselves to spray and prune their
trees, and follow other expert meth
DDS or orcharding. This is the way to
have fine peaches and other kinds of
fruit which can be richly grown in
Crisp county, and throughout all the
glorious section contiguous of Bib

The NATIONAL HIGHWAY

South of Cordele there is a growing
interest Of late in the development of
a place on the map for the National
Highway. 1t is still one of the best
roads in Georgia 1t was first deve-
loped and every year most of its keep
erS have manchester strong pride in
it. You only have to know the two
pronged Dixie to appreciate the Nat
tional Highway.
But we are anxious to crush out the
fashion of directing tourists over the
Dixie Highway so long as it is left in
it's present condition. No matter
which way you go. you get into trou-
BILE and travel some neglected roads
when you get on the Dixie. Tourists
ought not be punished that way and
Georgia ought not to get the name
with them that is given by the bad
sections of this twopronged road.
