Big Day at Marietta.
On Tuesday, the first day of
year, the people-at Marietta and
surrounding community gather-
*d together to hear Hon. Milton
Farier deliver ao address on
community co-opecation and the
means and reasons for such up-
building community spirit,
which was received with the
same good feeling as by which
he spoke it. ,;**
Amongthe purposes for which
he spoke was that of working to
have the good feeling of the peo
pie of the Marietta trade territo-
ry as he was contemplating the
opening of a large general mer-
cantile store at Marietta and he
didn't want any one to feci that
he was coming in and hurt any
home merchant and he express-
ed the view that with all work-
ing together they could draw
big trade to Marietta, that was
now going to Naples, Hughee
Springs. Linden and Douglass-
villa.
Following his address it seem
i d by the expressions of various
ones present that he was not on.
|y going to help Marrietta but
that each merchant there now
would be greatly benefited and
all wanted him to come into thier
tMWII.
Mr. Farrier's address was that
kind which Idsts in the minds
of those who heard him and rang
with the well known principles
of the man, especially of his de-
sire to he of service to his fellow-
iuan in the community in which
he resided.
We understand that on Fri-
day following a committee met
with Mr. Farrier and a well de-
lined program for the future of
Marietta was laid down and Mr
Farier has decided to open a
$50,000 s ock of^oods at Mariet-
ta this month
PLAY THE GAME FAIR
It is the rule of life that y<>n
giye the other fellow half • the
road. This is a literal law when
it comes to driving on the pub
lio highways. The other fellow
is entitled to his part of the
road, and when we meet a driver
of a car who wll not giv®> we
call him a road hog <This same
rule of the road applies in life
The man in business who tries
to shove bis competitor in the
ditch by uufair method* is just
as guilty of a breach as is the
auto driver who crowds the oth
er fellow to the ditch Life is a
game and to succeed and be en-
joyed it must be played accoid-
ing to the rules. The thorough
|y selfish mau is rarelv ever the
successful mail Co operatiou
and service and cheerfulness
are much better assets than, sel-
fishness. II the game of se&sh
ness is* played out t • the eod
therein always < .ie a little sirou
ger to come along and shove the
other follow ot)' P ay the game
fair.—-Ex.

Educational Notes,
The state department had, up
to Dec. 5. sent to.the county de-
pository $13,982, or two dollar"
per capita. This does not go ve
ry far toward paying salaries.
Do uot pay large discounts. One
man has told me that he would
cash any voucher for not more
2% percent. The money should
be coming in regularly now.
The state inspector, J B. Mc
clung, made 35 schools before
the holidays. We missed two on
account of bad roads and weatb
er. He will be in the county to
finish inspecting state aid schools

and the itinecary will fie publish-
ed in the county popers next
week.
Those districts contemplating
tax increase elections had better

HOWOLDARE YOU.
Read what Roger Babeon eays:
Roger VV. Babson in bis book
called "Business Fundamentals"
says; 4,The ten years between
twenty and thirty should be
charged to education. Corres-
pondence courses, Night Classes
and Good Hooka constitute a
most profitable investment at
this particular point in a ocan!e
career,"
Many youm men and young
women are ambitious but unable
to leave home to enter a busiueee
school. Some of them spend the
time vainly in wishing that they
had money, of time, or both, eo
that they could prepare them-
selves for bigger things iu life
that they now enjoy.
Others avail themselves of the
opportunity offered by the Cor- •
respondence Department of our
College, investing tbeir iieeure
time in an education that will
rneau dollars to them in tbe fu
ture.
There never was any one who
could not afford to take a busi-
ness course. A business course
always pays for itself and bringa
back to its recipient vastly more
in dollors and cents than is ever
-.pent upou it. You will pay for
i busiuess education whet her you
get it or uot, by lost opportuni-
ties. Only people who are rich,
or supremely gifted, can afford
NOT to take a business course,
and even they would be benefited
by such au education,
By mail, we can teach you oar
famons system of Byrne Simpli-
fied Shorthand; (typewriter fur-
nished free); Byrne Practical
Bookkeeping; Business Admintn-
