The Barnesville News-Gazette, Barnesville, Ga.
Barnesville Boys At Collins

Three Barnesville boys are "in the swim" at Collins, one of the thriving new 
towns of south Georgia, which is another evidence of what success attends the 
efforts of those who grow up under the influence of Gordon Institute and the 
spirit which pervades this community. All of them are well known here and their 
friends are not surprised at the success with which they are meeting there.

Mr. Emmett Langford is cashier of the Bank of Collins, enjoying the confidence 
of the stock holders and citizens of the community and receiving a splendid 
salary. The bookkeeper of the bank is his brother, Mr. Marvin Langford, who is 
also rising rapidly.

Mr. Alvin Langford, another brother, is manager and part owner of the Collins 
Drug Co. and the Tatnall Journal, the county paper, speaks of him as “a young 
man of rare business ability who is rapidly building one of the finest drug 
businesses in that section of the state.” The record of these boys shows what 
character, ability and hustling will accomplish, even among strangers.
