HARD WORK, THE
GREAT OVERCOMER

Sometime ago the Albany Her
aid had occasion to write what is
regarded as a gem of an editorial
on hard work, insisting it is the
great overcomer for most all our
ailments, real and imaginary, and
the Herald, as usual, is right. In
part, the Herald says:
'Work has accomplished practi-
cally every worthwhile thing that
has improved and developed the.
world since development and i'm
movement began
1T has built cities and brought
nations into being, leveled forests,
turned rivers from their courses,
tunneled through mountains and
united oceans, It has made dos-
cr5a to bloom, brought from the
bowels of the earth treasures
stored there when this sphere was
young, and girdled the globe with
wires that carry the messages of
man wherever he wills. 1t has
built machines that do the work of
tens or hundreds or thousands of
men. It has laid the great iron
highways over which the products
Of the nations are moved and built
the giant steamships that carry
commerce over the seas-all these
things has work done and many
more. It has harnessed the light
ming and made the winds to be-
come the sevants Of man. 1t has
tracked deadly diseases to their
lairs and there put them in chains.
It has wrested strange secrets
from insects and read in the rocks
Of the earth the history of events
that transpired ages ago. 1t has
mapped the Heavens and weighed
the distant plants, identified the ele-
ments which seethe in the flash
ing stars, and marked with uncan-
ny accuracy the phenomena of the
universe about us long before
they were due to occur.
"Work is the one great builder
of all the ages. Nothing can take
its place because all other material
things were founded on it. 1t is
what gives value to every single
thing upon or within this globe
that possesses value. The rich
est acre of ground in America
would not be worth a penny if it
were not for work-work to max,
that acre productive. And if work
were suddenly to end what would
Manhattan Island be worth? A
puff of air!
s"Work is the doer of miracles
Tie stlengtl Of nations, the Great
Cvercomer.
9And who knows it better than
the farmer?"

'The Valdosta Times prints the
following as what it regards the
views of an esteemed contempt
rary on church consolidation.
Now that we travel in automo-
biles and distance does not amount
to much, why not consolidate the
churches?" says the Moultrie OBJ
server. Everybody, especially the
most devout curch-goers, have no
automobiles; and the different
churches have their ferven ad-
herents who would not fe, at
home outside Of their own oh rch.
Most of the advocates Of CHI -c.-

furnish the rallying ground. IN

HENRY FORD DENIES
PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDACY

What seems to put all rumors
at rest regarding the candidacy
of Henry Ford for the presidential
nomination in 1924 is the denial by
Henry Ford himself, while on a visit
to the South. last week, that he had
not the remotest idea of running.
In an authorized interview given
to the pres at Albany the automo-
bile manufacturer is quoted as
saying: Il have been greatly sur
prised at the number of people who
have come to me while l have been
in Georgia and said they wanted
to vote for me. I am sorry to dis
appoint them, but I have no idea
of running for that or any other
office"
This seems to be plain enough,
and so the folks who have been
counting on voting for Henry may
now proceed to make othol plans
for we believe there is going TO be
a choice lot to pick from on the
democratic as we'll as the republi-
can side, if we read the signs of
the times Alright. While Harding
may offer, there has been enough
dissatisfaction in the ranks of his
own party to justify the conclu-
sion that he will not have easy sail
ing. Then the democrats have all
sorts of good timber available none
of whom, we believe, have avowed
eddy thrown their hat into the ring.
But going back to Ford. We
admire him first and last, yet when
it comes to backing him for presi-
dent, we like many others, believe
he can do the country a greater
service in the industrial field for
which he is best fitted. His past
performances have proven that he
is a giant when it comes to solving
industrial problems and right there
is the greatest needs of our coun-
try today.
With the labor problem, Ford
is master of the situation. Into all
his industrial plants he inculcates
the Golden Rule principle, making
it impossible for strikes to occur.
All his workmen from the unskilled
to the skilled are satisfied with their
wage On his-railroad he operates
no Sunday freight trains as an
other roads, north and south. His
trains are all light ones, thus Civ
ing employment to more men.
Such man as Ford has many
5deHaetors among big business, but
the common people, those of small
means, are believers in Henry Ford
and his ability to put over any bust
ness problem he undertakes, no
matter how big.

SUGGESTS CLEANUP
WEEK FOR AMERICUS

Through the agency Of the
Metropolitan Life Insurance. Com
pany there comes to US a sugges-
ton for a cleanup week to be in
augurated in Americas and coming
from whatever source, the sugges-
ton. is a timely one, for where
filth is allowed to accumulate there
is the breeding places of disease,
and all this can be easily prevent
ed by some civic body or bodies
taking the initiative in making
Americas as clean a city as any
in the country.
The house fly and the mosquito
are the breeding places of most Of
our diseases, and there must be
destroyed. Refuse from our
kitchen, stores and the like should
be destroyed, and unless this is
done, regularly, we may expect
fevers this summer.
There is, we believe, a city ordi-
nance against littering the streets
with all kinds Of fruit Feelings.
Chief Bragg has given warning that
individal citizens must clean up
around their own doorways, and
while there has been no active
campaign started, We believe only
a suggestion from some source
win be all that is needed for loyal
citizens to guard their own health
through cleanliness.
This insurance agency has kind
ly offered to cooperate in any kind
Of campaign which might be
started They have the Necessary
posters, fly swatters, all Of which
are offered to any committee which
might have the matter in charge.
This week Columbus is ipaugu-
rating a cleanup campaign.
Speakers are provided to visit the
schools and instruct the children
in matters of health. Other cities
who conducted campaigns have
met with gratifying results.
