Biggest OK in United States.

Guilford county is becoming famous for
freaks and curiosities in the animal king

two brothers. who live in Oak Ridge
township, between Oak Ridge and Gull

Clark brothers now have an OK bred and
raised by them, which is eight years old,
seven feet high and would easily weigh
two thousand pounds if in good condition.
His oXship is of no especial breed and
evidently gets his immense growth from
being so well fed and cared for The
Clark brothers have an old maiden sister,
all three living together in great poverty
and the most primitive style. They assoc
ciate with no one, and from appearances
never use SOAP and water on their per-

are intensely ignorant, none of them be-

never been outside of Guilford county.
They are not only freaks and curiosities

the unanimous opinion Of the Association
Whereas the American Medical Tenn

ers who have devoted years to the study
of alcohol and its effects, and who are
eonversant with the work done by scien-
tfic men the world over to determine the
effects OF alcohol when given in any guam
tty, have noted the teaching of Prof %ior
w. o. Atwater, of Wesleyan University,
upon the food and medical value of alco-
hol rs set forth by him in the pages of
the influential lay press, be it
Resolved, That this Association utter
~ repudiates the pro alcoholic doctrine
of the said Professor w. O. Atwater as

by scientific experimentation. and that his
conclusions are unwarranted by the evil
dence resulting from his own experiments
Be it further
Resolved, That this Association re-
CARDS the teaching of Professor w. O..
Atwater as erroneous, and a source of
danger to the laty insomuch as such
teaching contributes towards the increas-
ed consumption of alcoholic beverages by

causes. also the conflict of experience
with theory and tradition The other pa
pers read discussed the causes OF the
popularity of alcohol as a beverage, and
its danger in high attitudes; also the
substitutes for its use in medicine.
The value and reliability of these pa
