WILL AMERICUS BE In
south GEORGIA LEAGUE
Albany'S Withdrawal Has Left
Vacancy in It.

Plans for organizing a base ball
league in south Georgia have been
postponed temporarily by Albany, one
of the cities counted upon for member
ship, getting a berth in the South AT
lanti League.
The cities interested will get to-
gether at an early date and decide
whether organized base ball can be
maintained in this section at tiis time
or not.
Tie withdrawal of Albany still
leaves good material in Americus
Townsville, Valdosta, Cordele, Fitz-
gerald, Waycross and Brunswick.
If the Americus fans want to have
this city represented in the League
they will have to move in that direc.
tion in TIE near future as it will take
some time to perfect arrangements.

SIX COMP PANIES MAY
COME into DRILL.
AmeFiCus Boys Will Take
Hold of Plan.
Suggested That Fourth Battalion,
Fitzgerald and Agricultural College
Cadets Join in Prize Drill Here In
February.

Corporal Croxton is wearing the
prize medal of the Americus Light
Infantry for the month of November.
In tie monthly drill in the manual on
Monday night the corporal carried of
the honors.
The company now has fifty enlist
ed men and is rapidly improving in
general efficiency. The Inspection
Monday night brought the men out in
good shape and Capt McLendon was
we'll satisfied with their appearance,
soldierly bearing and skill in Gand-
ling their weapons and guns.
AT the meeting on next Monday night
the company will take up the question
of a prize drill between the four com
panies comprising the Fourth Battal-
ion. These are the two Columbus COM
panies, the Albany company and the
Americus company.
1t is believed that an invitation
to TIE three companies of the battai-
ion to enter a prize drill at Americus
would meet with a favorable answer.
The Fitzgerald company and the Agri-
cultural College cadets would alsu
probably be invited to participate. The
staff officers of the Fourth Battalion
could be secured as judges and the
drill pulled off in the highest military
style.
The ladies of the Library and Hos
pital Associations, working together,
would provide the cash and medal
prizes, and the proceeds could go to
these worthy public institutions.
The boys of the local company, it is
believed, will heartily endorse the idea
next Monday night and the invitations
would soon be issued, in order to at
ford all contesting squads and indi-
viduals ample opportunity for prepar-
atory drilling.

COUNTY SCHOOL HOUSE
GOES UP In FLAMES
New Building Destroyed On
First Day Of Use.

The new county school building, on

The teacher and children could do
nothing to save the property, and it

no insurance.

great yield was produced will be print
ed as soon as it is announced by DR..
Seaman A. Knapp from Washington.

for the greatest product and on all
points.
All that is known about the boy is
