PHOENIX CERTAINLY
 A MUSICAL TOWN
Two Bands Dispense Melody Sunday Afternoon, Much to the Wonder of Visitors.

What is the occasion of so much celebration in the city today?" inquir- ed travelling man yesterday of the reporter. 'To what do you refer?" Inc was asked. Why there are two bands going at both ends of the city. and 8 phonograph in the middle. Say. this must be a musical town. in contradic- ! tion to a Lonesome town It does not | look like people in Phoenix knew any thing about financial depressions, or scrip. or octopuses."
 The crowds gathered at both the court house and the city hall plaza eX- cited the wonder of a number of stran- gers who landed in the city yesterday In explanation it may be said that inc west side merchants decided that they would liven up that end of the business district and in pursuance of that idea employed the Industrial Liberty band The band occupied the porch of the Grand View. opposite the court house and gave a very excellent concert. As the program was started at d later hour than that given at the city hall plaza by the Pioneer band. many who had attended the east side concert also
 
 the westside merchants.
 It must have appeared rather d nov city as well as luxury to the traveller passing through yesterday. The tune fulness of the afternoon hours was cer- tainly calculated to dissipate any doubts as to the prosperity and busi- ness good cheer which here prevails. The afternoon concert has become a time honored institution during the winter months. but two of them is set ting d new precedent. The merchants and business men who are behind the extra concert are moved by civic as well as personal pride in keeping up the reputation of thht district for be ing awake and thoroughly alive to the necessity of pushing to the front.
 Many of the merchants who are sup porting the Industrial Liberty band are also contributors to the support of the other organization. Strolling down Washington from Third Avenue to Third street there was music. music everywhere. Not a dirge or a chant, or a doIeful strain, or a rumble of i'm pending panic could be caught on the breeze. Being suddenly transported from the more quiet and songless towns where somebody's always look ing glum, to Phoenix yesterday. the surprised traveller awakened from his mince-pie dream of monetary calami- ties in a realm where the air was vii brant with melody and sunshine abounds. It was only natural he should eXclaim Gee, but this is a mu- sical town
 The music reminds one of the holi- days. which are approaching. The af- ter-the-fair dullness is passed and gradually the city is resuming a hust- ling air, the display windows are be- ing prepared for Christmas. the stores are filling up with the holiday ship ments, the banks are sound and ready to accommodate the holiday buyer with cash. and no note of warning or pre- TnOnitiOn of financial distress appears on the horizon. Therefore. let the bands play so he who runs may hear. and hearing take heart and go his way rejoicing.

THO BARS ARE CLOSED:
THE BOOZE ALL GONE
Americas Has Entered ON
Great Thirst.

Although there are yet two full
days wherein the oil of Joy may be
dispensed and sehooners hauled over
the bar, Mr.. S. L. Sills stated yester-
day that he would close both his sa-
looms here, at 1920 last night, this
closing to be final. Practically his
entire stock had been sold at that
hour, and the probability is that neith-
er the Lamar street on Cotton ave-
nue. places will open again in the
shadow of the Continuous Drought"
which will settle down upon Georgia
Tuesday night. Mr.. Sills has been
very successfully engaged in the IL
quor business in Americus for five
years or longer and now retires
therefrom to devote his entire atten-
ton to his handsome clothing and
gents furnishing store here. Other
dealers in the ardent here are almost
sold out as we'll, and when the Great
Thirst begins Wednesday morning

BULLET IN LUNG LAID
LOW A BLACK BROTHER
Fourth Killing of Holidays
Here.

The pistoloric pleasantries so gen.
eral in rustic colored circles about
Americus during the holidays was
further heightened yesterday when
the sheriff harpooned John Charles
Marshall out on the Dodson farm for
having snuffed out the light of an
other black brother, Gene Mathis.
Gene got it through the lung, and a
high-toned funeral was thus assured
at the start. Marshall alleges that
the shooting was accidental, as are
most of the fatalities marking the
holidays, but he was jailed until a
full investigation is had. This is the
fourth fatal shootfest among negroes
here during the past week.

Best WAYS to Wind Wool.

Wool for knitting or crochet should
never be wound very tightly into a
hard ball, as this makes il thin and
poor. Some, good knitters merely
unwind the skein into soft heap.
but this method is only possible where
there is no fear of ENHANCEMENT, as If
the heap Of wool be disturbed it soon
gets into hopeless tangle. A better
plan is TO wind the wool over three
or four fingers of the left hand held
outside the ball These fingers should
be gently withdrawn at frequent inter
walls to change the position of the ball.

is always sof. and full OF thread.

RuHs Always Becoming

lace or silk.
tulle and tho ringdot net are favorite
materials, and, although fancy prices
are asked for these ruches in the fash
ionable millinery shops and large
stores, they can be made at home at a
fraction of the expense. Such a ruche
is sketched in the drawing, the model
pictured showing a deep plated run
of brown tulle mounted on a stiffened
silk band, and finished by silk loops
and bows in front.
Another very pretty model was
made of black ring-dot net, four deep
plisse frills being used, with another
of tulle next the face. A cluster OF
black silk poppies with yellow centers
was tucked among the tulle in the
front, which was finished with many
ribbon loops and ends OF black velvet
and net.
Another very odd run was also
made of ring-dot net, each ruffle being
bordered with satin ribbon. On the

CHANGE IN FOOD
Works Wonders in Health.

II is worth knowing that change
in food can cure dyspepsia. Il deem
II my duty to let you know how Grape
Nuts food has cured me OF indigestion.
Il had been troubled with il for
years, until last year my doctor rec
commended Grape-Nuts food to be used
every morning. / followed instruc-
tions and now am entirely well.
The whole family like Grape-Nuts,
we use four packages a week. You
are welcome to use this testimonial an
you see fit.'
The reason this lady was helped by
the use of Grape-Nuts food. is that II
is predigested by natural processes
and therefore does not tax the stomach
as the food she had been using; II also
contains the elements required for
building up the nervous system. II
that part of the human body Is in per-
feet working order, there can be no
dyspepsia, for nervous energy repre-
sents the steam that drives the en-
gine.
When, the nervous system is run
down, the machinery OF the body
works badly. Grape-Nuts food can be
used by small children a. well as
adults. 1t Is perfectly cooked and
ready for instant use.
