Annual Building Boom Has
Already Begun In Leesburg
Large Caaw office and building rapidly going up, while
preparations being made for construction Of similar
building across the street.

With unusual energy, in fact with
the greatest interest in public dew
elopment that Leesburg has ever
known, the annual building boom
has commenced in Leesburg. The
large Galloway Office and store build
!. ing is going up with remarkable
Swiftness. and the brick-work OF
is modern structure will soon be
pmpleted. Now the encouraging
news is addeI that similar build
ing will be constructed across the
square on the property owned by
Mr.. j. A. Lipsey, Mr.. Lipsey be-
ing interested in giving further ac-
comodations to the people Of Lees
burg in the way Of Office and store
room.
Never in the history Of Leeshurg
have SO many and such large build
Ings been constructed as the one.
now going up and the one that is
promised. Most Of the office and
store bull lings in Leesburg are
brick, but they are only one-story
high. The new Building now go
ing up on the Galloway property is
two stories high, and it is being
constructed 50 that third story
may be added. The other large
building contemplated will also be
"a large building, with two floors,
built Of brick and modern in every
way.
The BUILDING boom in the busi-
ness district will undoubtedly made
the need for more residences all the
more keenly felt. Already plans
aare being drawn for several new
structures on Walnut Heights, so
that the building Of homes during
The summer will Keep pace with the
Expansion and improvement Of the
business district. The indications
ire already unmistakeable that the
summer season here will be the
most important building season ever
,nown in Leesburg, and that the
ity's growth is to be rapid and per-
nanent.

We Have Faith in
This Stomach Remedy

A woman customer said tVu the other
day, "Say, you ought to tell everyone in
town about Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets.
| would myself if I could." That set us
to thinking. So many people have used
them and haveso enthusiastically sound
ed theirpraises both to US and their friends
that we had an idea you all knew about
them. But, in the chance that some Of
you who suffer trofn Indigestion, heart
burn, dyspepsiar or some other stomach
complaint. don't know about them we
are writing this.
They contain BiSmuth and Pepsin, two
Of the greatest digestive aids known to
medical science. They soothe and com
fort the stomach, promote the secretion
of gastric juice, help to quickly digest
the food and convert it into rich, red
blood, md improve the action Of the
bowels. We believe them to be the best
remedy made forindigestion and dyspep-
STA, We certainly wouldn't offer them
to you entirely at onr risk unless we felt
sure they would do you lotof good. If
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets do not relieve
your indigestion, check the heartburn
and make it possible for you to eat what
you like, come back and get your money.

Commissioners Should Uphold
The Honor Of Lee County
Such i The position of Mr. M Hines writing promise made
work certain reads through Central tract,

That the county commissioners
Of Lee county are lacking in their
sense Of duty not only towards aid
ing the future development OF Lee
county, hut also in regard to giving
much needed aid to the citizens Of
the county who have not had their
roads worked in years, is the posi-
ton taken by Mr.. ] NJ Hines in
the following timely and vigorous
card to The Journal;
Editor Lee County Journal:
I noticed communication inlast
week S Journal from Mr.. Beatie, Of
Albany, taking our Commissioners
to task for not keeping their prom
ise with him in that they agreed to
work 50 many new roads through
the lands purchased by the Central
az Georgia Co. Now, if our COM
missioners made such d trade they
should have made good and stuck
to what they promised. But in my
judgement they made a bad trade
for the county when they were a.
ware of the fact that the county was
badly in debt then. and further
more they knew there were public
roads in the county that had not
been worked in s years. Mr.. ]. NJ.
Cannon informs me that the public
road running from the. Forester
place and through this same tract
of land in question has not been
worked in 5 years. They should ut
least and without further delay work
this road. From Mr., B. B. Mar
tins through to the Dougherty
county line and that would give
them one good road through this
tract Of land. ard then later on
when they got. in shape carry out
their contract or promise.
While on the subject Of commits
sioners want to reiterate what I
have written before and that is this,
change our laws SO as to have only
3 commissioners and make them
elected by the. Grand Jury. AS long
as commissioners are elected by the
people or popular vote, our county
will be ia just the fix it is in now.
The Grand Jury would be free from
politics and would act with good
judgment and elect the best bust
ness men we have in the county.

said that if the Grand Jury at spring

their hundreds Of friends in the city
Sunday afternoon when they were
quietly married by Rev. S. E. Cros-
by pastor Of the Presbyterian chur
CHI. Where the marriage was per-
formed has been kept q secret by
the two witnesses and the minister,
at the request Of the young couple,
though it is stated that it was per-
formed in a very romantic spot in
the country.
The young couple took only three
or four friendsinto their confidence
in regard to their proposed wedding.
On that afternoon they went out
driving and were met by Rev. Mr..
Crosby, who performed the cere
mony. They then went to Leeshurg
in an automobile and remained there
with friends until time for the

also read with interest Mr., j..
D. Clifton's letter to The Journal
and fully agree with him that the
office Of treasurer is a useless one
and quite expensive to the tax
payers Of the county, but to change

amendment to the constitution
which could be done and then let

Peoria Herald-T Transcript Circuit
Judge Donnelly of Wamkegan has
fined $10O and costs each of the five
women of Volo who were members
of "ran party" last year. These
women, who assumed to represent the
morals Of their community, came to
the conclusion that one of tfpsdr neigh
bors was undslly intimate with her
brotherin-law. The evidence consist
ed in the fact that the suspected
woman was seen in the company OF
her husband and brotherin-law silt
ting arm in arm in front of thsir own
premises.
The slanderons charges Of the gos,
sips were denied by all three, but the
vigilantes took it upon themselves to
ride the suspected woman out of
town on rail. Judge Donnelly CEN
sured the five defendants severely
and said their sex alone saved them
from the maximum psnalty of $500
fine and six months in jail.
In every community there Is b
group of meidling, holier-than thou
vigilantes whose souls are burdenea
with the reformation of people they do
not know and of whose circumstan
they are alike ignorant.
It is difficult to conceive OF more
despicable citizen than the s,ander-
mongdng gossip.
