I52 LUNCHES SERVED
BY LADIES YESTERDAY
Was Record Day For Week
of Demonstration.

Yesterday was the biggest day of
the week at the lunch room of the
ladies of the Hospital Association. In
all 152 lunches were served between
y m. and 2;3O p. M, probably the
record for the week. The ladies had
not expected such a rush of visitors
and at the end ran out of supplies and
were compelled to turn orders away.
1t was case of hard work for three
hours for tile serving corps, but the
results were thoroughly agreeable
to those in charge. A number of cans
of Wesson's oil were also sold.
Today a pleasing lunch will be
served. The ladies will make an es-
peeial effort today to dispose of a
large number of the cans of cooking
oil donated by the Southern Cotton
Oil Company. 1t is probable that a
hundred or more lunches will also be
served today.
Manager Frances, representing the
Southern Cotton Oil Co, is we'll satis>
fed with the results of the weeks
demonstration. He and his assistants,
the Misses DeLettre, have done all in
their power to make the Wee, a sue
cess and the ladies of the Hospital
Association have worked to the same
end with untiring zeal.

AFTER THE RECKLESS RIDERS
WHO SPEED THEIR CARS
Grand Jury of MuscOgee Demands
Their Arrest.

The grand jury of Sumter county
may take a pot shot at the reckless
joy rider here who speeds his car to
the imminent danger of pedestrians
and drivers of less scootical vehicles,
as the grand jury of Muscogee county
at Columbus thus sets the pace.
In their presentments the grand jul
ry included the following autograph ::
Realizing that these machines (au-
tomobiles) are with us permanently,
and desiring to protect the public and
a large majority of owners who oper-
ate their ears conservatively, we rec
ommend that reckless drivers on the
county roads or city streets be arrest
ed without exception.
I'VE urge that the sheriff and all
city officers and recommend to the
police commission that all policemen
be instructed not to overlook reck-
less driving, and to the court, we rac~
ommend punishment that will be ra-
membered and have lasting effect
we recommend that no person I'M
der the age Of seventeen years be al
lowed to operate an automobile on
a public road or street"

FIRST COTTON BLOOMS
OF SEASON OF 1910.
Crop Showing Up Well in
Sumter County.

Two cotton blooms came in yester>
day from two different parts of sum
ter county, as evidence that the crop
is making good Roadway and -four
ishing, the growth of the weed hay-
ing been quite remarkable during the
past week or ten days. While rain
is desired, and two or three days of it
would be welcomed at this time, the
plants are showing up strong and
healthy looking and the planters are
we'll satisfied with the outlook as Il
now appears.
Mr.. John Methvin, one of the most
successful planters of the Twenty
eighth district, brought in some blooms
yesterday that told of the state of his
crop. In that section there is moth
ing to complain over the prospects.
From DeSoto came a bloom that told
that the cotton fields were showing up
magnificently. Those who have tray-
ersed the country round about De-
Soto speak in glowing terms of the
crop outlook there and of the great
strides that have been made in an
agricultural way in that territory in
the past two or three years.
Lee county also contributes its first
bloom from the field of Charles f.
Little( colored renter on the plan
tation of Mr.. John T. Ferguson Mr.
Ferguson has a number of renters, but
this was the first bloom, although the
fields are expected to be profuse with
them in a few days. On the places
rented out by him there will be
large crop of corn made this year as
we'll as cotton.
Blooms are expected to come in from
all directions the coming week as
evidence Tint the crop throughout
Sumter county is doing we'll. Despite
the cool weather that prevailed for
SO long, the crop is not as backward
as was anticipated and the first bale
Of cotton will roll into market prob
ably along about schedule time. SUM
ter seems destined to keep up it's
half century record as to crops this
year.

CURTISS' TRIP LESS
COSTLY THAN TRAIN

The cost of aeroplane flying as COM
pared with automobile or train travef
is show nby the fact that Curtiss used
just seven gallons of gasoline, WORTH
about $40 at retail, to travel the 70
miles from Albany to his landing
place near Poughkeepsie. This comes
to less than two cents per nile, which
is what the New York Central's rates
figure. But Curtiss carried baggage,
INCLUDING himself, weighing 1000
pounds, and the railroad would have
charged extra for his overweight
By automobile the cost would vary
according to the type of machine US
ed. But with a machine able to
make sixty miles an hour, as Cartiss
did, the cost per mile would not be
less than 2 cents mile and proba-
bly, more.

NO DESIRE SHOWN
TO PLAY IN ALBANY
Memory of Last Year is
Still Too Fresh.

There is no disposition apparent in
baseball circles or among the large
element of the public that supports
the local baseball club so enthusiast
ically, to accept the invitation for a
double header ON July Fourth with the
Albany club, the morning game here
and the afternoon game in Albany.
Inquiry in the circles of fandom
shows no inclination to change the
opinion originally expressed. That
opinion, it will be recalled, was di-
rectly adverse to playing Albany.
The memory of previous games with
Albany, of the rank treatment accord
ed in that city to the visiting bali
players, and the belief that the idea Of
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES has not been
much improved in that city, are suffi-
cient deterrents to ks the local
team from entering into any arrange
men-s with the managers of the club
there.
Americas has a fine aggregation IN
its ball team this year and the ma
terial is being rapidly whipped into
one of the finest in all Georgia. 1t is
confidently believed that Albany would
be comparatively easy prey for the
Americus twirlers Perhaps there
would be no objections to playing on
some neutral field, but if a game S
played at Albany it will certainly pc
over the objections of many lovers Of
ball here who insist on clean sport
everywhere and at all times.

WIVES AND MOTHERS
MAY PETITION COUNCIL
To RigidIy Enforce Law
for Food Screens.

A petition may soon be circulated
among the housewives and mothers of
the city requesting the city council
to see to it that the ordinance re-
quiring the screening of all foods, in
Guiding candies, fruits, cake, etc, so
that flies may be kept from them, be
vigorously enforced
The ordinance was passed early last
summer at the request of the Board
of Health. 1t was in keeping with
the movement quite general through
out the country to protect the health
of the public against contamination
of food supplies through flies, now
recognized as the greatest distributors
of typhoid and other disease germs.
The law was enforced to some de-
gree last year, but many of the house
wives of the city believe that it should
be enforced more thoroughly this
year than last. 1t is realized by them
that eternal vigilance is the price of
exemption from disease transmitted
through the flies. 1t is believed that
the city council would pay heed to
a petition signed by TIE wives aud
mothers of the city. 1t is accordingly
probable that one will be circulated
within a few days.
In some cities the women's associa-
tions, working steadfastly and jealous
ly for the Improvement of health aud
other conditions affecting their fam
lilies, have resolved not to trade with
merchants who fail or refuse to prop
erly protect food from flies. Inves-
tigation in some cities has Shown that
many cases of fevers are directly
traceable to the transmission of germs
flies.

the market halted and showed a ten

better volume at higher quotations

short interest outstanding, which il
eliminated on any further advance will
rob the market of its chief element OF
