ming, present Mayor Adams, Council
men Ryon, McAnney, Leeds, Ware

The light committee reported in

Upon motion, the contractor on the
Verona, avenue paving was instructed

territory to be covered by the system
and the probable cost of its installa-

this committee made its report that
the matter be referred to the public
of the borough for a vote. He die
not believe that outlying districts, not
covered by the sewerage system

installed by the municipality, because
they would not derive any benefit
therefrom. Rather, he said, the ben

has long been known as All Fools

Things To Know

AS a mild fertilizer. nothing is
better for garden plants than
soap suds. Don't pour the soapy
wash water down the sewer.
Empty it around your garden
plants and let it aid your garden.
Baked apples are greatly i'm
proved by the addition of a few
large raisins. Stuff the raisins
in the hollows where the cores
were.
The majority of grease stains
may be removed from woolens
by such solvents as alcohol. ether
chioroform. or gasoline. The
grease will be dissolved by gent
ly rubbing the spot Witha piece
of the same material chopped in
one of the solvents.
When drying knitted things
care should be taken that they
keep their measured shape, so it
is necessary to look at them sew
eral times in the drying. When
they are half dry they should be
turned and pulled by hand. =

ClairvOyant Revives
Search For Clyatt

Valdosta, Mich. 31-By follow
ing the revelations" of a clair
voyant from Atlanta, relatives of
Samuel Clyatt, wealthy resi-
dent of this city, who mysterious
ly disappeared a year and a half
ago, hope to find his body. The
search which has gone on period
ically ever since the strange dis
appearance Of Clyatt was taken
up again this morning.
The clairvoyant, and a
man named Lawrence,
came to this city and went
into the country where City,
atti is supposed to have dropped
out of sight. This was on the
road between here and Hahira,
about eight miles from 'this city,
where Clyatt's horse and buggy
and some articles of wearing ap-
parel were found at the time Of
his disappearance.
Four miles from this place, ac-
cording to the clairvoyant, the
body Of Clyatt will b e found
buried beneath a negro's cabin.
There are hundreds of cabins
in this four mile radius. Some
of these were visited today. At
some of them the earth was re-
moved. AS darkness came the
search was given up and the
party returned to the city, de-
termlned, however to continue
their work tomorrow. In the
party this afternoon were the
clairvoyant, Lawrence, and
James Clyatt. Others had gone
to the scene with them earlier in
the day.
Interest in the case has Eeen
revived here. 1t is the chief
ttopic of conversation, Clyatt be-
ing SO well known among the
people of south Georgia.
Negroes living in the radius
of four miles of the point where
Clyatt's horse and buggy were
found are worrying lest the body
be found under their cabins. /
Most of them, however, arc
not aware why the search of theil
| premises is being made at thii
time.
