REFUSES
CHAMBER AID TO
CARRY ON WORK

The board of county commission
ers, by tabling the proposal submit
to them, refused the request of the
Americus and Sumter County Cham
ber of Commerce for an appropria-
tlon of 1900 for the year to help
carry on the work of the Chamber.
N. A. Ray, chairman of the board, is
one of the commissioners of the
Chamber of Commerce, and a mem
ber of the board is j. E. Poole, also
a member of the city council, who
last Thursday night recommended to
the council that the Chambers re-
quest for 5000 from the city be
granted.
The request of the Chamber was
presented by President John Sheffield,
who was accompanied by T. C. Till
man, George R. Ellis, Frank Harold,
L. A. Morgan, Lovelace Eve and JOS
eph Perkins, all officers of the Cham
ber. Mr.. Sheffield stated that the
Chamber was just what it's name in
dicated-the Americus and Sumter
County Chamber of Commerce. He
declared that fully 70 per cent. of
the activities of the body were for
the benefit of the county at large,
and that therefore the county should
properly have hand in its support.
George R. Ellis told the commits
sioners that the Chamber needed help
right row, because it was face to
face with opportunities for Sumter
county which would require the ex-
pendi5ure Of the funds sought. He
called attention to the movement now
on foot to obtain a packing plant for
the county, by which the farmers
live stock production might be utiliz-
ed to the higest advantage
to the farmers. He mentioned that
the Chamber is purely public in
stitution; that its officers serve with
out pay, being interested only in see
ing the city and county progress and
grow.
The tablinE of the request was done
by the commissioners after the pro-
posal had been. taken Unde, advise
ment.

When LIE Grows Broader.

God does not count prosperity as
we count it. Our sense of proportion
is largely shaped by our experiences.
When life is quiet and sheltered, and
the stream runs smoothly, we notice
every ripple and magnify every small
obstruction. We are fully occupied
with our work, our small worries.
Then comes some grief, calamity, or
new responsibility which suddenly
changes everything. Our old interests
are dwarfed and look so petty that we
wonder that we ever allowed such
trifles to burden our souls. By such
experiences life grows broader and
higher and takes on new values. We
have new standards Of measurement
for our fellow men as well as our
selves.
Americus times-recorder., 1919-10-06

the preliminary work was all but COM
pleted on the first paving project,
on the Dixie highway, and it would
be ready for approval within few
days. 1t is planned to advertise for
bids to be received on it by about the
middle of November.
Joe Hawkins, of Thomas and Haw-
kins, stated this afternoon that the
Sumter county project, which would
be submitted to the state and fed
eral officials within day or two,
would be the first in the state frof
the last appropriation. He stated
that the Sumter projects were be-
ing handled as rapidly as possible.
May Change Route.
Crawford Wheatley appeared be
fore the board prior to its tabling
of the plsn to pave from the court
house to Mayo and Oglethorpe aven-
ue with plea that the route of the
Dixie Highway within the city limits
be changed from Oglethorpe avenue
to Crawford street, for reasons which
he outlined before the city council
last Thursday night, as published in
Fridays Times-Recorder
In response to question by Chair
man Ray as to whether the route of
an established highway could be
changed, and whether the right angu-
lar turn at Crawford and Mayo was
not too abrupt, Federal Engineer
Grassland stated that it was the gov
ernment policy to defer the wishes
of the local authorities wherever pos
sible; he was sure the change could
be made without any difficulty in
having it approved. Mr.. Wheatley
offered to give enough land off the
corner of his lot at the intersection
of these streets to permit of a round
ing instead of a square turn. Mr..
Grassland saw no objection to this
route. 1t was pointed out in favor
of this route that eventually, when
he Vienna road is paved, traffic on
it from Mayo street to the city will
take the same route.
Mr. Grassland was quizzed during
the morning on the advisability of
using Macadam asphalt for paving.
He declared it an entirely satisfac-
tory type of paving, one which the
government approved.

This is the spirit of the Campaign
in every part of the state, and there
is every reason to believe that Geor-
gia will be among the first to reach
her quota when the actual canvass
is made.
Good news comes from every part
Of the state and from the South in
the campaign. Several Georgi~
churches have raised their quotas, and
many associational quotas are being
raised by the vote of the associations.
More than dozen associations have
done this already.
The Atlanta and Macon and Colum-
bus organizations are among the lead
ing city organizations thus far. The
towns and smaller cities Of the state
have gone forward with the work
in unanticipated fashion.
The First Baptist Churol Of Grit

citation was the first association to
complete the organization out through
every church. Many other associa-
tions have done this now.
From Texas comes the word that
the Baptists of that state have raised
their quota from sixteen to seventeen
million This is the most remarkable
of the spirit IN which the
is being received on record.
One man has given a million dol

PAVING PLEDGE
CITED BY CITY
ON PROPOSAL

The city of Americus, through w.
E. Taylor, councilman and chairman
of the city councils street commit
tee, informed the county commission
ers today that the city could not
meet its proposal to enter an agree
ment on a $3.50 basis to pave I'M
mediately the route of the Dixie
highway from the court house to
Oglethorpe avenue and Mayo street
where federal aid will begin. Mr..
Taylor stated that the city would
gladly furnish the services of its en-
engineer to superintend the job, and
any macfinery and equipment when
could 0e utilized, but chat ii was felt
it could not go any farther at this
time, -bacaue of the limitGt'on lnpos-
d by the citys fnanclal condition.
Following the report of Mr.. Tay-
or, the commissioners decided to
Irop the plan for doing this paving,
at least for the present, and prepare
or getting the first federal aid pro
ject under way as soon as possible.
Mr.. Taylor and others explained to
the board that inasmuch as the city
of Americus pays large percentage
of the county's revenue, 1t was not
considered improper to ask the coun-
ty to do this paving out of its own
treasury, or at least provide for half
of it to match the bond money from
that source. Frank Harold and
Crawford Wheatley both informed
the board that they had been assured
by Judge HiXon, chairman of the
bond campaign committee, during the
bond campaign, that the program
called for paving all of the designat-
ed highways to the court house, with
out further expense to the people
living inside the city. This phase of
the question was not gone into by
the commissioners at this time, how
ever, the whole matter being mere
ly passed over for the present.
Long Session.
The commissioners We're in session

ternoon, great deal of their time

bridge projects and one federal aid

county's engineers, Messrs. Thomas
and Hawkins, both of whom were
present. A. T. Grassland, the federal
highway engineer for the Southern
district, stationed in Atlanta, was al
so present.
The engineers stated that the two
projects were complete and had been
approved, and were ready to be ad-
vertised for bids. 1t was agreed to
advertise for bids to be received on
the first week in November, the eX-
act date to be arranged after con-
sultation with the highway depart
ment in Atlanta. The two bridges
are across Sweetwater creek and

should be used within 10 to Ia days
after preparation, as otherwise the
material will dust off the grain. If
the poison wastes too freely, the grain
may be placed in a tub or other vessel,
sprinkled with a little water and
mixed to moisten it before distribu-
ton.
Columbian ground squirrels are not
controlled easily as they hull oats
very carefully before eating them and
hence avoid the poison. Therefore
the method outlined above is used.
AS the squirrels hull the poisoned
oats prepared in this way, the poison
flakes off in the rodents mouths and
kills them. The Columbian ground
squirrel infests the wooded sections
of Idaho north of Boise and Bellevue.

squirrel. 1t also has an obscure
brown colored streak along the mid
die of its back, while the hind Dor
tons of its hips and thighs are a
bright brownish-red color.
Poison ground squirrels as early in
the spring as possible, as in this way
the natural increase of young squir-
rels is eliminated. The poisoning
campaign should be continued thru
out the year until the section is free
of these pests. The rodents will eat
the poison bats at any time. At
tention should be given to destroy
ing the squirrels in all their haunts
in pastures, uncultivated fields, fence
rows and roads as well as from the
cultivated fields where complete ex-
termination of the pests is sought.
