about my weak, rundown condition

biscuits.
One evening the Rawleigh man
came to our house { as he had been
doing every three months for a
long while and persuaded me to
try treatment of Laxative Syrup
and pure Wine of Cod Liver Oil.
He gave me a weeks free treat
ment, and before the week was
gone [ could tell it was help to
me. I.sent and got two more, and
in three months from that time [
was able to do oil nay work and let
the children go to the cotton field.
So you see / can't say too much
for Rawleigh's Cod Liver Oil and
the Rawleigh man, and l will thank
you, very much, Mr.. Editor, if you
will publish this letter.
Respectfully yours,

RALLY DAY.

1t was our pleasure to attend
the Rally Day exercises at Liberty
Sunday, and we heartily enjoyed
the occasion; in fact, we never go
out to Liberty without feeling well
repaid for the going. The SPLEEN
did program was made up OF reel
tations, pantomimes and sacred
songs by the Sunday school chill
dren, assisted by n splendid choir,
all of which was very creditably
rendered. TO be candid, they
could not be improved upon, and
showed the painstaking care of
Superintendent Ray Pafford, who
is also entitled, we were told, to
full credit for the design of the
beautiful arch, decorations, drills,
staging and work of preparation,
which was quite task, and called
forth tact and energy.
Orr space forbids individual
mention of the girls and boys who
participated in the exercises, but
all were worthy of eulogy Those
who were so fortunate as to secure
a seat in the church were highly
entertained, and one of the crown.
ing features Of the day was the
splendid dinner served on the
ground by the good ladies of that
community. We enjoyed the gen.
eroas hospitality of Justice j. G.
Bomar and family, where we found
50 many good things to eat we
hardly knew when to end the feast.
A touching scene was the presen-
tation Of beautiful watch charm
to Superintendent Pafford by the
children of the Sunday school. A.
X. Presson made the presentation
speech, to which Mr.. Pafford re-
piled with much feeling.
The people of Liberty always
respond generously when called
upon to do so, and when the cause
is worthy one, SO when Newt
Presson told them that their pas
tor, Rev. Arco Robinson, had ask
ed that an Offering be made for
the benefit of the correctional
claims of the church, they event
down in their jeans" and paid it in
full, and also reimbursed Superin-
tendent Pafford for the expense
incurred incident to the rally.
Liberty has set high standard
of excellence in the observance of
Rally Day, in which even Camden
no doubt would do we'll to encour-
age and emulate.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER "a, 1918.
A GREAT VICTORY.

A short time ago the Nashville
Democrat referred to- the country
members of the General Assembly
as"Hill BilIies," and said they had
no right to legislate for the cities
OF the State without the consent of
the allied whisky interest.
The hill billies finally won ont
in the General Assembly, and the
people of Tennessee have been
granted the privilege and right to
60 into the courts and exterminate
the lawless saloon. The shipment
of liquor from one county to an
other is forbidden, and the Webb
law passed by Congress has been
made effective by prohibiting the
shipment of liquor into the State.
Furthermore, the railroads and
express companies will obey the
law and refuse to handle the stuff.
"The whisky crowd was beaten
to frazzle,' is the way an enthu-
siastic Democrat Christian man
expressed it.
The Regular Democrats put
in nearly ten months fighting the
law enforcement measures urged
by the Governor. They could not
stem the tide of public sentiment.
and their forces finally went to
pieces. When they fully realized
they were waging losing fight,
they gave it up, and the most of
them got into the band wagon.
The final passage of the law en-
forcement measures over the strong
opposition of the allied whisky in
terest is a great triumph for Gov
ernor Hooper, who deserves much
credit for his determination and
firmness in righteous cause.

THE FIRST THANKSGIVING
