Somethi more was needed to give idle
people woI We were almost totally with
out factories with steady payrolls.
So the people in Lexington got busy. Soon
a shining new factory to house the Lexington
industries, a Lingerie plant, took shape.
Durant acquired not one, but two new in
dustries, a Upper plant and a Jacket fac
tory and the people of Pickens raised enough
tory nd the people of Pickens raised neough
money among themselves to secure a furn-
iture factory.
All this is good -
But the most significant thing about all
these accomplishments is the rejunivated at
titude created among he people all over the
county. Optimism is fast replacing the old
lpessimistic attitudes, and this is even better.
Announcement has already been made that
a Charcoal plant which will employ about

raft took over for a time but
the better elements of the land
rid themselves by their own
laws. They cleaned them out
by hangings and killings until
this law breaking bunch of
criminals disappeared from
their midst. 1t is a dire pre-
diction to make but there is
going to be a change in our
nation despite politicians and
dictators to our courts.
We note that more and more
cities and towns are banning
the sale of fireworks. Just to
glance over the news during
the holidays we see where fire
works are responsible for dea-
tbs and manning of young
sters. Fireworks are danger
Gus. They do not belong in the
hands of little fellows who do
not realize they are dangerous
until it is too late. Realization
can not replace an eye, a hand
or a life for then 1t is too late,
1t often takes a tragedy for a
community to ban the sale or
shooting of fireworks.

The Fiffies Were Good To U.s..

Holmes Countians can look back over the
Fabulous Fifties" just past and point with
pride at a tremendous job of changing from
an almost total agriculture county O a dever-
sified one which always makes for a more
stable economy.
Ten years ago mechanical farming and
crop controls were v~acating tenant houses
all over the county at a fast clip. The future
was anything but bright for the merchants in
our towns and something had to be DONE.
Something was -
Farmers, Business men and Civic lead
ers all over the county got busy. What
used to be gulleys and useless open fields
took on new face. Cotton and corn fields
changed their roles to that of well sodded
pastures and the cattle business began to
thrive. Today this county i some of the
leading cattle producing counties. The
Forestry program got into full swing
and today young pine trees dot the county.
Field hands turned to pulp wood haulers,
and that industry alone, brings thousands of

picture the people as I ride by,
who year after year fought
hard ships to wrest a living
from the earth. No doubt, a
young farmer turning the soil
with a pillow drawn by a team
of mules, sweating and nibbling
at the weeds and grass, as
they labored along.
In my imagination I peer
through the window and there
| see a fire cracking in an
open fire place, a coal-oil lamp
clean and bright on the table.
I can sniff supper cooking and
the smell of hickory smoked
fried ham, freshly baked corn
bread, and for dessert apple pie
and a pot of black coffee. To
complete the scene-there are
two hungry boys bouncing in
rosy checked and happy, for
their supper.
While we are speaking of
homes, it is strange how a
house can affect one. Some
old or new seem to breathe a
serene air, and some for no
good reason at all are just
plain depressing. Now and
then l go into a house that
makes me feel chilled, how I
love to go in to one that gives
me a sense of brightness even
if / am blue when I enter. Old
houses have a special charm
for me, they were built sound
ly and built to endure.

they can break all laws. Of
course they know that the dirty
politicians with the aid of fed
eral courts will go to every ex-
IRENE to protect them. They
want votes and don't care how
they get them.
There is a strong undercur-
rent in this county that q lot
of people do not know anything
about and it certainly spells
trouble for these lawless ele-
ments in the minority class.
How long do you think that the
decent people of our larger
cities are going to put up with
the brow beating of the law en-
forcement agencies. How long
will they sit back and let these
criminals get away with every
form of crime. Their cities

the first time in the history of the United States a woman became

Mrs. Ross was a finelookine woman of medium height. with

died in October, 1924, and Mrs. Ross was subsequently nominated
and elected to fill out her husbands term which had two more years
to run, until January, 1927.
The ceremonies inaugurating Mrs. Ross were simple. Tears
came into her eyes as acting Governor Lucas in a brief address

Project Big Dollars" Started
For go Announces Boyce Kinq

Boyce King, Holmes county
announced today that he is
busily engaged in the soliciting
of farmer participation in the
Federal Crop Insurance Pro-
gam. Mr.. King stated that he
will continue to write applica-
tons for Federal All-risk crop
insurance until the limited num-
Der of new policies allocated to
the county for the 1860 crop
are secured unless, of course,
crop conditions should make it
necessary to discontinue the
writing of new applications be-
fore that time.
The Dollars invested in
crop production are "BIG DOL
LARS. Often times these are
dollars saved by the farmer
over a number of years at con-
siderable sacrifice. Many times
crop production dollars repre-
sent dollars which h We been
borrowed, secured by hard
earned chattels, on which in
terest must be paid for the pri-
vilege of using the borrowed
money. What happens to the
big Dollars" are lost due to
unavoidable crop failure?
There can be no profit from
the crop. Operating expenses
cannot be paid from the crop
since even the dollars invested
in production effort are lost.
Farmers can protect the
big Dollars" with an all-risk
Federal crop insurance policy.
This policy covers a substan-
tial part of a farmers crop in
vestment against all natural
unavoidable hazard such as:
wildlife, insect infestatioh,
drought, flood, hail, wind, fr-
ost, freeze, lighting, fire, ex-
cessive rain, snow, hurricane,
tornado, and other unavoidable
cause of loss due to adverse
weather conditions.

of winter as being death? How

SUNDAY SERVICES AT

Rev. Roy D. Raddin, pastor,
preached to a filled auditorium
Sunday morning and Sunday
night. The theme of the SER
mon Sunday morning was in
connection with the Lords Sup
per. Rev. Raddin preached on
the subject: Remembrance. He
said in part, This one word is
a key to the real understanding
of the meaning of the Lords
Supper. Jesus said, DO this
in remembrance of me-, so the
spiritual action is specially and
specifically prescribed in that
the Remembrance of the Lord
must be there. The fact that
Jesus set up in His life the way
that He was to be remembered
after His death, is a thing which
is absolutely unique to Chris
tianity." Ten Deacons assisted
the pastor in passing the sup
per to the congregation. The
pastors text for the morning
was 7 Cor. 11:24, "This so in
