IF men WILL STOP
CRITICISING WOMAN'S
DRESS SHE'LL WEAR
MOTHER EYES GARB

Atlanta, Nov. 1.-THE worm has
turned! A Georgia woman, tired of
reading and hearing the preachers i'll
particular and men in general criticiz-
ing women's clothes, has arisen ID
demand point-blank what it is tn 2
men want the women to wear.
I'VE women would like to know If
there is any style that would please
the men," Miss Eta D., inquiries. 1--WE
tried the wide skirts. All we could
hear from the men and reformers was
Hoop skirts, bustles, silk petticoats,
ridiculous!'
Then we tried the tight skirt, and
all the men talk about is 'fhobble skirts
and silk hose
Some of us are so sick and tired of
it that we would be almost willing to
try Mother Ewes style if doing so
would make the men shut up.
What right has man to Judge wo-
mans clothes anyway? Is man in
general well dressed, with his neck
shaved high and his hair cut short, a
cigarette or cigar in the corner OF his
mouth, striped shirt, trousers that
don't fit and pockets as large as coffee
sacks; with silk socks and pug nosed
shoes, men are more awful sight
than any modern CARRIED woman"

SON SENTENCED:
father TAKES LIFE

Nashville, Tenn, Nov. 17.-Because
he had become heartbroken and des.
pondent over ill-health and his ineffec-
tual attempts to alleviate the twenty
year prison sentence of his son, Jesse
Perry, who was sent up recently for
an alleged attempt at rape, w. F. Per-
ny, linotype operator on the Nash

opium Sunday afternoon at Ills home,

hours later at local infirmary froE,
the effects of the drug.
Suffering from the effects If the drug
and muttering incoherently, Mr.. Perry
was found by a member of his family
in a room at their home, and DR.. Frank
P. Head was hastily summoned. 1t was
evident to the physician that the poison
had gained too great Roadway TO
permit of temporary treatment, and
Mr.. Perry was rushed to the city hos
pital where every expedient measure
was resorted to in an effort to restore
consciousness and save his life. The
suffering man passed away at o'clock
without regaining consciousness. He
was member of the Typographical
union, and carried small amount CT
insurance in that organization, the
members of which will have charge Of
the funeral arrangements.

GENTRY BROS.
HERE TOMORROW
ANIMAL ACTORS WILL PLEASE
AMERICUS KIDDIRS WHO AL
WAYS WELCOME THE "DOG AND
PONY SHOW.

Gentry Bros Famous Dog and Pony
Show which is so dear to the heart Of
every boy and girl in Americas arrives
over the Central of Georgia tomorrow
morning, and despite the early hour o.
its arrival, will doubtless be met by a
goodly number of Americas juvenile
population, many of whom can hardly
restrain their impotence at having to
wait until afternoon, when the first
performance of the wonderful animal
actors takes place.
Tomorrow afternoon and night tn :
show will be given on the vacant
ground on Harold avenue, and after
the matinee in the afternoon { II young
sters attending the performance will
be given "joy-ride" on the backs u
beautiful ponies.
This custom has made the Gentrys
millions of little friends throughout the
country and riding ponies is almost As
popular with the youngsters as the
show itself
No street parade will be given. The
show, which is great favorite in
Americas, is comprised largely OF
trained animals, dogs, ponies and
monkeys, and as the giving of the pa
rade means tired animals and often a
late afternoon performance, Gentry
Bros have entirely dispensed with this
hampering feature. adyt

PLENTY TURKS
FOR SLAUGHTER
THANKSGIVING
MARKET is WELL SUPPLIED
Americas viii Regale On
turkey Day.

Americas, backed up by Sumter
county, the best source of supply" the
veritable Egypt" of south Georgia,
will be abundantly supplied with the
toothsome turk on Thanksgiving Day.
just little more than a week in adj
vance Already the plump birds are
being brought in to Americas by the
two-horse wagon load, and prices arc
about the same as last season here
Sumter's farmers, who raise every
thing that can be produced upon well
regulated farm, pay particular atten.
ton to poultry, and there is never any
shortage in the upply of patriarchal
gobblers and yellow-twigged chickens
of tender vintage.
The extensive growing of field peas
for the sake OF the hay is fine for the
turkeys, and many of those brought IN
town are taken out of the fields where
the peavine hay has grown and they
are just about as fat as turkeys we |
could be. Judging from the number
of turkeys seen the raising of them
must be on the increase, and there II
never lack of demand for them
Just at this time eggs are rattle
scarce. but the luscious fruit of thu
barnyard will be plentiful, as usual,
before II is time to brew the Christina,
egg-nog. The other essentials" of the
nog are already on hand.

ATLANTA DINNER To
Be PR0H| AFFAIR

Atlanta, Nov. 1.-THE big 1000
plate dinner which will be held in
Atlanta tomorrow night will be abso-
lutely dry, so far as turntables are
concerned. The reason, il is whisper
ed, is that fear has been expressed
that if wine or beer were served, the
prohibitionists would make the fact
the center of an attack.
In past years, at nearly all the big
public dinners held in this city, wines
or beer, and sometimes both, have
been served as a matter of course
and usually without comment.
There seems to be a general feeling
in the air that some kind of big
prohibition agitation is on the vergl
of probably in the nature OF
a concerted effort on the part Of pro-
hibitionists to sweep all beer saloons
and all locker clubs off the map.
Many people think that such radical
action would hurt the city, and there
fore people are on their Ps and Qs u
keep from doing any thing that will
stir up the question unnecessarily.

FAMOUS SINGERS To

Atlanta, Nov. 17.-By happy coin
cidence Atlanta will have the pleasure
of entertaining the two most famous
quartets in America, all within the
same period of week. Last week the
noted Chicago Glee club was here, un
der Alkahest direction, and on Friday
of this week will come The noted
kneisel String quartet, named after the
distinguished German musician at its
head.
The Chicago Glee Club, when it sang
here, celebrated its 3,660th public per-
formance. For the past thirteen years
it has been touring the principal cities
of the United States and Canada.

Ten days spent at the first of the
year gaining new information and get.
ting new light ON farm problems at
the State College of Agriculture at
Athens, have proven of benefit to many
farmers. 1t has been the means of
some getting into new and better pay.
ing lines of farming than they have
been conducting. To all, the course
has meant the broadening of their con.
ception of the possibilities, as well as
their knowledge of the great underly-
ing principles of agriculture
The first of the year is good time
to plan the farm program. 1t may
be that you want to take up some
thing new, but you do not have all the
information you would like. Why not
get it at the short course? Perhaps
your soil is losing its fertility each
year and you want to know how 1t
can be built up without buying it.
Perhaps you are interested in start
ing the raising of colts, or beef cat
tie, or dairy cattle, or pigs. If you
have not had successful experience,
you will provably find that learning
how costs far less at the Short
Course.
Perhaps you may be interested in
growing alfalfa, silage crop, or other
crop suited to Georgia. The College

Where seed can not be bought that
has been proven free from the dis
ease, the farmer must rely on his
own cotton fields. Any one can de-
velop a variety of cotton into high
state of freedom from the disease by
proper seed selection in his own fields.
If anthracnose is not present, it pays
we'll to select seed in the field from
the best plants. Yields can be built
up remarkably in this way.
Everything that conduces to weak
ness of plant development lays the
plant open to all diseases that may
appear, so that the best assurance OF
freedom from loss is obtained only
when there has been right seed selec-
ton and right cultivation both before
and after the seed is planted. In other
words, strong plants are healthiest.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1913-11-18

Go into the cotton field and get
your seed. ANY other way is hazard
Gus. Select seed from plants that are
free from disease and especially free
from cotton anthracnose or boil rot
Georgia lost 100000 from anthrac-
nose during 1913, according to federal
reports. The disease is spreading and
greater losses may be expected.
Select seed from well formed, hardy
high-producing plants that do not bear
signs of anthracnose, and you not
only have the best assurance of pro-
lection from boil rot, but an assurance
of the largest yield.
The College has been selecting seed
In this way during the past few years
and has a variety of cotton that has
proven highly free from the disease.
