Mary Tribble Grows
Weak; Hope Lessons

Little hope was entertained Tues
day for the recovery Of Mary Trib-
Bile, the 7-year-old girl whose two
weeks Of mysterious paralysis is sup
posed to have resulted from eating
chalk with poisonous coloring mat
ter.
The decline in her condition was
noticed at 5 o'clock in the morning.
Dr. Simon L. Katzoff sought to re-
store a normal circulation by ar
hours massage, and he substituted ar
electric treatment for this with the
same end in view. but with little eff
feet.
DR.. Katzoff is not at all convinced
that the girl was poisoned by the

lieves, might have been caused by
any one Of a hats dozen other cir

With a bristling attack by Mrs. T.

the fight on Senator ]. R. Anderson.

State Senator's were flooded with
letters protesting against Anderson's

an ally of the liquor interests.
Prayers win be one of the weapons

Joining in pleas to Providence to pre-

Judge Allen is Anderson's most for

Mrs. Patterson's Letter.

Here is the letter local temperance
workers have received from Mrs Pat
terson writing from Griffin:
Dear Friends ana Co-workers:
Senator J. R. Anderson, of Sa-
vannah, claims a majority vote for
President of the Senate Now, behold
what meat this Caesar has fed upon
that he has grown so great. He has
fought the temperance forces at ey-
cry point, led the flibuster, delayed
Legislation, defeated prohibition meas
ures and all in favor Of the liquor in
-erests. He represents a community
that openly defes the State laws He
is personally interested in the brew
cry and is secretary and treasurer of
the Brewers Association of his city.
He has recently sent out a state
ment saying he opposed the saloon.
but favors peer. This is the Model
Leagues trick to conjure with. Mr.
Anderson is so notorious for liquor
and that gang that his elevation to
this position would be heraIded
throughout the nation as a great vic
tory for the brewers and distillers
and, indeed, it would be. Georgia led
the late prohibition movement, and. to
thus repudiate it at this time Will
hurt the cause the nation over.
Sees Peril in Election.
If Mr.. Anderson is elected to any
place Of power, we Will suffer to thus
place him where he might become
Governor of the State. where he could
defy the law of the State and ma
nipulate everything, for the liquor in
terest is too hazardous to even con-
slider.
our men are asleep. and only a few
Of those awake to the situation seem
but little concerned. Oh women, to
your tents, Pray as you have never
prayed. Lay this matter, by God 5
help, upon the hearts Of the praying
men and women Of your community.
I do not mean stay on your knees. but
mean to get this matter so on your
heart that it is never a moment off
your mind for the next few days. and
that sincere desire, like incense from
the altar ascend increasingly to God
for the defeat Of this enemy Of our
State and cause.
Urges Prayer on June "a.
Then, on June "a, let us fast and
pray that Gods will be done in the
election of a safe man as President Of
the Senate.
More things are wrought by prayer
than this world dreams Of If you
are not moved to white heat over the
situation, pray God to move you
Study Isaiah So, get the conditions
Of prevailing prayer and, like Jacob
Of old, hold on until He bless thee.

In Auto Accident

Mr.. and Mrs. Ben Nixon and Mrs.
Nixon's mother OF Rocky Ford were
injured Monday afternoon in an auto
mobile accident near Fountain, while
on the trip home from Colorado
Springs. Mrs. Nixon had expressed
a desire to run the car for while and
had changed places with her husband,
when for some reason the car swerved
across the road and was overturned.
The accident is attributed to the fact
that Mrs. Nixon was having some
trouble with her heart on that DAY.
She had complained some Of the trou-
BILE while 10 Colorado Springs and
II is supposed that she had an attack
of the same nature after taking the
wheel, which caused her to lose con-
troll of the machine. Mrs. Nixon and
her mother were under the car, while
Mr.. Nixon and his SOD were thrown
clear Of the car and were uninjured:
Mrs. Nixon escaped with only slighf
bruises. but her mother suffered at
injury to her shoulder which VIII
cause her considerable Inconvenience
for time.

Beets and cantaloupes are coming In

Is scarce. Tue delay of about two
weeks In harvesting hay right at the
time IT was ready to cut has made the
farmers about the busiest people in
the valley.
Reports Of the damage done by the
rains To hay that was on the ground
vary. Some say that the deterioration
was slight while others contend that
IL was almost total loss. News from
the other side Of the river says that
the wet weather damaged hay to such
an extent that II IL OF little value ex.
