Doubling Thomases, consider
these facts.
The past four years have
been hard, with partial crop
failures, caused by weather and
boil weevils. We have met
business depression; increased
living costs; migration of our
negro labor, and other adverse
circumstances.
And yet, with all our trou-
bles, we are in better shape
financially than other sections
of the United States. We have
not had the bank failures in the
state that have caused unending
woe and depression in the West.
AS a whole our people are
more optimistic, more cheerful
and are putting their shoulders
to the wheel, determined to go
forward.
Much foreign capital is com
ing into the state and our own
people are launching, carefully
and cautiously, into manufactur-
ing, in most instances on a small
scale, but Roadway is being
made,

This year Atlanta will com

which will be the finest tourist

Almost daily men are COM

over this section for future farm
settlement. They come; they
see; they are convinced. Once
the Western farmer is thor

soil, climate and people, he
will begin coming this way in

Other farmers are realizing
that trucking can be as profit
