B. Kinard is in new fields again this week. He has now tapped Forsyth and put the people of that isolated bug in touch with the business world. His line was completed to Forsyth on Monday and from a conversation we had over the line are prepared to pronounce the system perfect. The Argus congratulates Mr. Kinard on his enterprise and congratulates Forsyth upon being on speaking terms with Jackson. – Argus O, don’t show your jealousy! Come be neighborly. Forsyth had railroad, telegraph and telephone communication with the outside world long before Jackson had assumed the dignity of even being a fly-spect on the state map. The fact is that Green & Hale of this city ran their line out in that direction and Mr. Kinard made connection, so that it is out pleasure to congratulate Jackson on her connection with a city up to date in everything. Gee whiz! Jackson, you aint’t in it! Not on your Klondike! - Forsyth Advertiser. Note: S. B. Kinard is Stephen Bartow Kinard File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ga/butts/newspapers/jacksons1940gnw.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.org/gafiles/ File size: 1.6 Kb
