Like a young giant
feeling Ms muscles for
the first time, and mar
veling at their strength,
Georgia today, is begin
ning to take account of
its wealth. It has always
'been known that Geor
gia was a land of riches,
but just How rich it was
no one has bothered to
find out. Now that other
states and countries are
put to the test of their
industrial adaptability
and natural resources,
Georgia, too, is examin
ing the foundations of
its power, and Georgia
marvels at the variety
of nature within her
borders, and the va
riety of opportunity and
occupation. The world
is cordially invited to
come and take part in
developing the State's
resources.
