The Sentinel, of Je-<up, (Ja., located In the. southern part of the state, paints a rather doleful picture in re gard to the rush of <people through Georgia, both local and outskie peo pie, who go "by private trains, io ? x pensive autos, in Fords, walking, ho boing, and just any old way oil tho road to Florida." "The??e people,'* the paper says, "do not realize that in passing through Georgia and from Georgia on to Florida, they are step ping ovei' diamonds daily, and passing up what, if they but knew it, would yield more in response to their honest efforts than any other section of America." It asks the question, Why are they doing this? And the answer is worth studying. It is a perfectly frank ad mission that these people are going out of Georgia and going through Georgia because they have not heard of the great resources of southern Georgia and its/ abounding ? advan tages. There are many othor sections of the South of which the same story ?night be told. It is the lack of knowl edge on the part of their own people and of outsiders of the attractions and advantages of the South which is causing some to halt in the general march of progress. On this point the Jesup paper says: "Simply, because they have heard iib.<Ut tho other place and have no* -heard -of south -Georgia.. Millions ol dollars ni'e spent annually in spread ing the tidings of Florida's wonder ful sunshine and golden - opportuni ties, * "South Georgia gets very little ad vertising except what the newspa pers do single handed and without the backing of other people. If our trade bodies could do some systematic and aggressive advertising throughout other states 'and get 'em told' about this country, we would have no trou ble in getting manufacturers, farm ers and' others to stop, look and listen before crossing our border line into another state." Not only does southern Georgia get very little advertising except what the local papers do single-handed and without the bac king of the people, but there are hundreds, perhaps thous ands of communities here and there over the South which for the same .reason do not attract atten tion front outsiders, nor do they ho!d their own people at home. The local papers in many a town are practically the only agencies who are really working to advance the best interests of the town, and they often have to carry on their campaign under disadvantageous conditions. They preach optimism and tell the truth in doing1 m>, only to meet with the voice of the scoffer who declares "there is nothing good in this place and I am going somewhere else." They preach optimism and the building up of a community, while many of the business men render them no co-operation whatever In the campaign. Their columns are often marked by beggarly advertising of the people of their community; and while th< y are preaching optimism of j unrequited Labor fur the good -of | others. How .truly this applies, not only to small* cumm unities but to many slates, recognized by over thought ful man. Wake up! Wake up! ye people of the?e smali communities in the South and backward counties, or else permit yourselves to be decently buried in order th;<t your absence may be a blessing to your community. Thousands of men in the South are drawbacks to their communities; they are liabilities instead of assets. They j want nothing done except by their permission, or by their leadership, and they 'do* nothing their very activities are activities which intensify depression. Wsrke up, or <lie! You have uo right to cumber the ground; no right to stand in the way of the progress of other people: no right to hold your community -back. You are a liability and a.5 a liability your influence is all to the bad. An Old Epitaph On a weather-beaten tombstone in a I>o>ton graveyard is this inscrip tion: '"Sacred to Ohc memory of Fben Harvey who departed this life sud denly and unexpectedly by a cow kicking him on the 15th of Septem ber, 185.1." The last of the inscrip tion read: "Well done, thou good and fuithful servant." It is to be presumed that the in dividual who wrote the epitaph had reference in the last sentence to Kben Harvey and not to the cow that kicked him. Of course, if Flben's widow wrote the epitaph the refer oeue may have meant something else again. ? Spartanburg Sun.
