IS JEML ISLAND BEACH
LINED WITH BIG WHALE?
THIS is THE FISH STORY WHICH
WAS 'PHONED THE NEWS
LAST NIGHT.

Are there eight whale, measuring
from Is to 20 feet lying on the beach
at Jekyl Island, or is there some one
on the island trying to pull off joke
on The News and it's readers?
While we cannot vouch for the cor
rectness of te story, still it is print
ed for what it is worth. Some for
eign-talking person on the island last
night called up The News over the
telephone and stated that durinG; the
day eight whale, measuring in length
from Is to 20 feet had been washed
upon the beach a Jekyl. TIE tele-
phone was in bad working order and
the name of the person giving the in
formation could not be secured, or
rater the man in The News office
opuld not understand what the man
said his name was. OF course there is
no way Of verifying the report.
In the past, however whale have
been known to wash upon the beach
at nea by islands. A few years ago
two were washed upon the beach at
St Simon and they attracted consid-
cradle attention.
Whether eight Of the monsters are
really on Jekyl beach is not known,

what it is worth

this statement is made: mot long

magazines, which said, Within
eighteen months, China will have a

tenor follow.
If we read Mr.. Golfers interesting
book, we probably agreed with him,
but the revolution did come in Octo-
Der, 1911, and we held our breaths for
a while when it was announced that a
republic had been established in
China. Rumors have come that it is
in danger of being overthrown, before
all of us have heard what happened.
