every church should be filled with
worshippers and seekers of the
Lord.
8. Never in our knowledge of
the city has there been a greater
spirit of cooperation shown on the
part Of the churches and business
men in such an undertaking. For
this spirit we are deeply appreeia-
tive and feel that it is the forerun-
ner of a real community blessing.

places of business each day during
the morning hour so they and their
employees may attend the services.
In appreciation Of this very gener-
Gus act, we wish to appeal to all
the people of Americas Sumter

ings of Jesus. Because of this fact
we are appealing to the people Of
this community to do their best,
that the greatest blessing may
come to us.

ing that the spirit of the Master
may ever abide in our midst"

WALKERS CENTENARY

Citizens of Walker county are today celebrating the one hundredth annlver- sary of the formation of that county. For weeks preparations have been under way fittingly to observe the event, and a symbolic presentation of the county's historic advancement will mark the oc- casion.
 The people of Walker county have req son to be proud of their achievements during the century of it's existence, and especially of late years. Not only has that section produced men of patriotic instinct, but of proved constructive ca pacity. The county has been generously favored by nature. Its mineral resources and agricultural possibilities are exten- sive. There are few counties in the Southern states which present better op- portunities for expansion and develop ment. The countys production of coal for years has shown heavy increases, and especially of late years has it rank ed high. It is believed that its coal lands have scarcely been tapped, and that it's resources in this respect promise extensive developments within the next few years.
 Walker county has many progressive citizens who realize it's potential wealth and who are devoting their time and energies to its development. The build ing record of it's towns and cities demon strates the faith which it's people have in it's future. It has been growing for years not only in constructive develop ment, but, what is of even more i'm portance, in the civic advancement of it's people.
 The Age-Herald congratulates the peo- ple of that county on the expansion along all worthy lines which has marked it's progress during its first hundred years as a political and industrial unit, and extends best wishes for it's continu- ous advancement in industrial and civic achievement.

Where forlorn sunsets flare and fade On desolate sea and lonely sand. Out of the silence and the shade What is the voice of strange command Calling you still, as friend calls friend With love that canot brook delay, To rise and follow the ways that wend Over the hills and far away? Hark to the city, street on street A roaring reach of death and life. Of vortices that clash and fleet
 And ruin in appointed strife; Hark to it calling, calling clear,
 Calling until you cannot stay, From dearer things than your own most dea Over hills and far away. Out of the sound of the ebb-and-flow. Out of the sight of lamp and star, It calls you where the good winds blow, And the unchanging meadows are; From the hopes and hopes aGleam
 It calls you, calls you night and day Beyond the dark, into the dream
 Over the hills and far away.

FATHER AND SON WEEK

Father and Son Week" has beer proposed as a benefit to family life The ancient ideal of family life was that the father is the supreme authority ir the home, and that the children are 1T submission to his will. Such a relation ship when the parent is worthy is easily the basis of family government in civ ilized lands, though it has received more or less serious set-backs during the past few years.
 Sponsors of Father and Son Week. would not discourage the spirit of re- spect for and obedience to father by son nor would they detract from paterna authority in the exercise of the guidance of the son. There is, however, the i'm portance of establishing another element of relationship between father and son A comradeship between the two is neces' sary to bring them into closer sympathy The fathers influence over the son is as important through example as through precept.
 One reason why so many youths wan der from the influences of home life is that the father is frequently too ab. sorbed in business affairs to give proper attention to the son. Often the son is given his complete freedom, with ol without money, because it is considered the easiest way. It is said that wherever one finds a good-looking youth with money to burn there are always plenty of people within reach carrying a box of matches. The result is that frequent ly the father discovers that his treatment of the son was the easiest way, not the best.
 The ''Father and Son" idea would bring father and son closer together by having them take interest in each others affairs. For the father to become -es- pecially interested in the things that ap- peal to the youth would save many a heartache to the father. Living together and playing together is not only whole some, but mutually helpful. Grabbed old age will disappear when this is done. The personal intimacy between father
