A Fable George AIDE Overlooked.

Once upon time there Good Citizen who
found himself possessed of wife, a family and one
hundred thousand dollars. But he Not content.
Slowly through the efforts of the H. c. of L. his sur

One day at dinner following the smallest sons
appeal for third Slice the wife the Price
of loaf of bread.
Citizen forth and purchased Bakery For three
days all went well and Returns enormous. Then
became necessary to buy Flour and he forced to
donate all he had gained to a Milling Company.
So he sold the Bakery and got himself the Mill,
Big Money flowed into his Golfers speedily But in the
course of time he needed Wheat replenish his bins
and the Farmers of whom he bought exacted mighty
tribute
Still searching for the Source he got rid of the Mill
and acquired a Farm. He would sell Wheat and make
much Money But when the time for the Harvest
approached and the need for Machinery manifested it
self he saw it would take the of many bushels of
Wheat to balance that expense.
So he sold the Farm and invested his capital in a
Harvester Factory
Back where they had started the family sat one day
at Dinner And following the smallest sons appeal
for Third Slice the wife commented the Price of

A NEW DAY FOR SUMTER.

Today new day dawned for Sumter county. Yes
erday the citizens enlisted at the polls for
of Sumter county and progress. They spoke in
language that was unmistakable They told the world
where they stood. And they told EACH other that
they were unit-one for all-wth their faces toward
the future. Today they embark upon that future,
with the horizon rose-tinted with promise.
Sometimes it has seemed impossible to expect the
average citizen look the future and with his
minds eye just what permanent roads will mean to
Sumter. But from the results of yesterdays election
it appears that after ALL they caught glimpse the
glory that is to come of the great things that were
offered merely for the taking-and decided to take them
Now watch all of South Georgia. Old Sumter for
years has the acknowledged leader Georgia in

Had Sumter failed in this, her golden opportunity

And that she has gone over the top, what
a tremendous stimulous to the cause of good roads
throughout Georgia!
And how they have cheered old Sumter today
at statewide highway convention when her
senatives reported the splendid decision of her citizens
as recorded in this election Sumter long the leader
is to maintain the lead and nothing it from
her.
The expenditure of one million dollars in this county
within the year or two is going to employ
ment for all of the spare labor that may result from
the return of all troops from the and will
insure wider measure of prosperity than could
otherwise have known.
And then, there is this in addition to be said
when we have spent the million dollars and have all
the permanent roads that will buy we'll be ready
TO vote money for completing or extending the
paved highway system. That is the experience of
every community that has tried permanent roads and
that win be our experience.
And when we have our good year-around roads.
and the system is completed which it is bound
