Fitzgerald Boy Near Win
ner" In State Contest
Lack of Support Fails To
Land Him

(From The Athens Banner }
There was only one boy in the
whole high school contingent of
Georgia who dared raise his
voice against woman's suffer
rage in t h e state debate
b e twee two pick e d
teams Of disputants from all
the high schools in the twelve
congressional districts in the
state
And he was defeated last
night in the final state debate.
The debate was held in the
chapel. The team from Bailey
was on hand for the affirmative
side of the question, Resolved
that the franchise should be eX-
tended to women. The de-
bators were Lucious Tippett
and Mack Rogers. Against this
team championing the woman's
side of the question appeared
Sam KassewitZ, of Fitzgerald,
He made a good fight but the
Judges thought that the Bailey
bunch had the better of the ar
gument and the decision went to
the Baxley team by a vote of
two to one. A goodly audience
was on hand to hear the debate
which was the finale of scores
held over the state during spring
and winter.

SIaton Approves New
Registration Bill

Atlanta, July ga bill provld-
ing for a permanent qualification
list of voters in Georgia has been
introduced in the house by KEEP
resentative Barry Wright, OF
Floyd, and is understood to have
the sanction of Gov. Slaton and
the administration.
Around this measure WILL IN
q | probability, rally all the mem
bers of the assembly who are IN
terested in establishing in the
state some reform in the regis
tration laws which will do away
with unnecessary hardshlps
worked on voters, and at the
same time carefully preserve the
safeguards now thrown around
the ballot box.
The measure introduced by
Mr.. Wright will do both these
things. 1t contemplates that
when a voter once qualified for
mally, his qualification becomes
permanent as long as he himself
actually conforms to the qualitl-
cations. AS long as he is quail
fed in fact, he doesn't have to
90 through the formality of quail
flying anew each year.
It provides further that the
tax collector shall register the
voter each time when the voter
pays his taxes, SO that for men
who have qualified, the payment
of taxes will register them auto
matically.
The bill leaves room, however,
for the work of the board of reg
istrars and gives ample opportu-
nity for the annual purging of
the lists. 1t does not affect at
all the qualifications which a man
must have to become a voter.
Cove nor Slaton has expressed
his approval of the measure.

Catholics Opposed To
Modern Dance Steps

Atlanta, July 5.-Catholics in
Atlanta, following the expression
of the Bishop of Tennessee, have
expressed their disapproval of
the tango and other extreme
dances, and Catholic girls in
society will give up their occa-
sional indulgences in the most
modern dance steps. The church
is said to have no objection to the
regular waltz and two-step.
The Catholic objection to the tan
90 is not because it is a dance,
but because they say it is i'm
moral.

Last Friday, July 4th., was
the one hundred and thirty sew
en- anniversary of the birth OF
the American Republic. and
FITZGERALD celebrated the day
in very patriotic style.
Preparations for a big Fourth
had been under way for some
time, committees being appoint
ed on arrangements and the sue
ces;of their efforts has amply at
tested in the large crowd of Wis
itors in the city all day long and
the tremendous throng at the
Fair grounds where horse racir g
motorcycle racing and base ball
were the features of thsday and
the big free barbecue, also.
The success of the celebration
was made possible.' largely
through the cooperation of the
business men, who contributed
largely to the expense of project.
A fair estimate of the crowd
h d been placed t 5000,
but having anticipated a large
crowd, the committee in charge
Messrs. J. w. Scarborough and
R. l.. Jones, had made extensive
preparations and the hundreds
of pounds of beef slaughtered
for the barbecue proved plen-
ty for all.
The business houses closed
their doors at 11:30 a. m and
the afternoon was a real holiday.
Most of the stores were decora-
ted with the National colors as
we'll as many parts of the resi-
dence section. The day was
exceedingly warm, as is usually
the case on the Fourth, but this
fact didn't phase the youngsters
who had fire works to shoot and
the noise of firecrackers could
be heard all day. There were
no fatalities so far as we have
heard, and taking everything
into consideration, the Fourth
was pleasantly spent by practi-
cally all of Fitzgerald.
There was only one DOna due
horse race at the Fair Grounds,
being between Sam Coins horse.
"Highmedium," and the Lon
Dickey horse, wilbur, t h e
End" The race resulted in IA
vor of Mr.. sGoin's horse which
received first money.
A race was started between

but was interrupted during the
second heat by the starter and
was claled off, on account OF

Severe Storm Does
Damage In Waycross
Three Churches Gone.

Waycross, Ca. July 6.-Way-
cross and vicinity was visited by
a severe lightning and wind
storm this morning, a heavy
rain accompanying the storm.
The wind at times approached
cyclonic speed, and did much
damage in the city.

poles supporting the roads lights
for the yards were snapped off

ern part of the county is reported
demolished.
No injuries resulted as far as
can be ascertained.
A three story wooden structure
at Parallel and D streets was
badly twisted by the wind, and
may have to be torn down. All
windows in the structure were
blown out. Sheets of tin from
roofs of stores in the heart Of
town were torn off and hurled in
to the streets, and park benches
and garbage cans picked up and
blown about as if they had been
card boards.
At Hebordville, a suburb OF
Waycross, the Methodist church
was blown down between Heb
ardsville and Waycross. Five
frame houses were taken off their
foundations and two houses
blown over. Two negro churches,
both on the north side, were COM
pletely demolished and a third
was so badly twisted that it will
have to be rebuilt.
Large plate glass show win
dows and numerous windows of
offices in the large buildings in
the city were smashed. A third
of the fencing around the base
ball park was blown down.
Lightning struck and partially
destroyed the Atlantic Coast Line
depot at Nahunta, east of Way
cross, during the afternoons
storm. The operator had just
left the building when the bolt
struck.

GIRLS! STOP WASHING
- THE HAIR WITH SOAP
Soap dries your scalp, causing dan
druff, then hair falls eut-Try
this next time.

After washing your hair witt soap
always apply a little Danderine to
the scalp to invigorate the hai' and
prevent dryness. Better still, use
soap as sparingly as possible. and in
stead have a Danderine Hair Cleanse.
Just moisten a cloth with Danderine
and draw it carefully through your
hair, taking one strand at a time. This
will remove dust dirt, and excessive
oil. In few moments you will be
amazed, your hair will not only be
clean. but it will be wavy, fluffy and
abundant and possess an incompar
able softness and lustre.
Besides cleansing and identifying
the hair one application of Danderine
dissolves every particle of dandruff :;
stimulates the scalp stopping itching,
and falling of hair. Danderine is to
the hair what fresh showers of rain
and sunshine are to vegetation. 1t
goes right to the roots. invigorates
and strengthens them. It's eXhilar-
ating and life producing properties
cause the hair to grow long. strong

Coatased Droppns Of Mucus

A severe cough Is always y grave
symptom. It may not Indicate or
sanic disease of the lungs. Even
though the cough Is q functional dis
turbance it is Of sufficient gravity to
demand prompt attention.
The dropping OF mucus from the
back part OF the nose into the throat
indicates nasal catarrh. Sometimes
this goes on a long time before the
patient pays any attention to it. 1t
is stated on good authority that mu-
Gus dropping into the throat in this
way is apt to excite catarrh of the
stomach. At any rate. the condition
ought to be corrected as soon as pos
