PAUL LLOYD SMITH

   Paul Lloyd Smith, Athens' post master, was born in the early '70's, at
Albany, Missouri, and claims he is a "nationalist" in the matter of descent. His
father was a native of Pennsylvania, his mother of Virginia, and he of a "border
state." Mr. Smith came to Athens more than twenty years ago from Greene County,
Georgia, and with the exception of about four years (spent in the real estate
business) has worked in the Athens postoffice, serving as clerk, assistant
postmaster and postmaster, assuming charge of the office by appointment in July,
1922.

   He counts the support received from the citizans of Athens in his contest for
the appointment the greatest achievement of his career —and prizes it more than
the office—the belief of his fellow citizens that he was entitled to the
appointment at the hands of his fellow republicans.

   Smith confesses to one hobby—or one ambition—"to make the Athens office the
best postoffice in Georgia."
