Ed Walsh Made an Honest to Goodness
Comeback.

Comeback.
Ed Walsh had numerous things to re-
joice about when he beat the Yankees
recently and showed that he really had
come back In addition to winning his
first full game of the year he held a
batter hitless that he has always fear
ed above all others.
When Walsh was at the height of
his pitching fame baseball writer in
Chicago went to him and inquired how
he pitched to various batters. Big Ed
had at the tip of his tongue methods
to circumvent Speaker, Cobb and
Crawford, but when the reporter men
toned Birdie Cree Walsh had nothing
to say.
Il don't know what to give that fell
low" Walsh confessed. He hits most
everything I've got"
Cree came up in the eighth inning
in Walsh's comeback game with a
chance to drive home run, but Walsh
famed him. And now the pitcher will
have to look for another hOodoo bats
man.

MRS. HOODS HISTORIES
WORK JUST COMPLETED A HER
ITAGE TO COUNTY AND STATE.
Local Chapter of Daughters of Il e
COnfederacy Is Holding Very
Interesting Meetings.

In every line of endeavor the Mary
Brantley Chapter Daughters of the
Confederacy has made gratifying
progress this year, and the monthly
meetings at the home of the presi-
dent. Mrs. B. NJ. Davidson, are oc-
casions of interest and uplift. Very
enjoyable was the recent coming to-
gether of the members in regular
session. Several important business
matters came up for consideration.
A pleasing feature of the afternoon
was the reading of the address of the
state president, Mrs. w. d. Lamar,
delivered before the recent conven-
ton at Eastman. 1t was full of
practical suggestions, and was heard
with much interest. 1t was with
more than ordinary pleasure that
the chapter received the an
nouncement that Mrs. B. II. Hood
had completed the histories upon
which for some months she has CIV
en- untiring and effective work. This
monumental task has been labor
of love on the part of Mrs. Hood, to
whose efforts is largely due the up
building of the Mary Brantley Chap
ter. These histories so carefully
compiled are a priceless heritage, not
only to the local chapter, but to Ter
rell county and the state at large.
A letter from the state historian,
Miss Rutherford, expressed delight
and appreciation of this valuable ad
dition to the historical archives of
Georgia. She wrote in the most fiat
tering terms of Mrs. Hoods splen-
did service to the Southern cause.
On motion vote of thanks was
given Mr.. and Mrs. w. S. Dozier and
Miss Johnnie Steadham for their as
sistance in putting the histories in
type.
The chapter is greatly indebted to
Mrs. T. B. Raines and her committee
for the excellent programs arranged
for the winter, and those who fail
to attend the monthly meetings miss
literary and musical features that
are not only entertaining but educa-
tional.

WORK OF The BOYS CORN CLUBS
Farm Agent Kent Urges Every Boy
in County Between Ten and Eigh-
teen Years of Age to Join.

teen Years of Age to Join.
The results received from the club
work in Terrell county this year
make the future of the work very
bright. At first the farmers were a
little slow about letting their boys
join these clubs, but finally the
names of 23 were secured for the
corn club, 25 for the Central of
Georgia railway four-crop club and 3
for the pig club.
Out of the % corn club members
5 finished, and were awarded premi-
ums according to percentages made
on five points, namely: Net profits,
yield, report, legumes in corn this
year or on acre for another year, and
ten-ear exhibit Most of the boys
made good showings on all points,
but few, although they made good
yields, fell down on the other points.
Donors of prizes not mentioned in
the list recently published in The
News were as follows: R. L. Saw
lille, $500; j. R. Mercer, $500; j.
P. Perry & Co., $500; Hill & Pace,
$500; B. B. Perry, $500; Bank of
Dawson, $500. To these institu-
tions and individuals the boys of Ter
rell are very thankful 1t is these
that made the premiums possible,
and we feel sure that. the general
public as we'll as the boys feel CRATE
full and will show their appreciation
by pulling for a greater Dawson and
a better Terrell county. In spite of
the financial situation enough premi-
ums were received for all the con-
testants. The board of education did
not see how it could give more than
$40, but each member by giving 81
each brought this up to $26.
1t may be interesting to note that
the average number of bushels pro-
duced by the boys was 1926, with an
average cost of So cents per bushel.
In conclusion | want to urge
every farmer in Terrell county who
has a boy between the ages of 10 and
Is years to let him join one or all
of these clubs right now. Now is the
time to begin instead of February or
March, as we did this year. Break
your land and SOW some kind of COW
err crop, bur clover, crimson clover,
rye or oats, and in this way we can
greatly increase the yield and de-
crease the cost. Send me the name,
stating the club or clubs, and l will
take pleasure in enrolling him.

INDICT BANK OFFICERS
TRUE BILL RETURNED AGAINST
NJ. M. LOWREY AND OTHERS.
Federal Indictment Charges EmbeZ-
element and Making False En-
tries On Bank Books.

tries On bh1k DOOhSs
Before the United States grand
jury adjourned at Macon Friday
three indictments were returned
against former officials of the Amer
icus National Bank.
The. three men who were indicted
are M. M. Lowrey, former cashier of
the bank, and present mayor OF
Americas; George D. Wheatley, Jr.,
former assistant cashier and clerk,
and Emmett c. Hawkins, also an
assistant cashier and clerk.
The bank collapsed last February
with a general Indebtedness of ap-
proximately 100000, and many
people in Sumter county were ruin
ed financially.
Since the failure of the bank Mr..
Lowrey has continued to hold his
office of mayor of Americas.
The grand jury investigation is
said to have disclosed a deplorable
state of affairs in the Americas bank
case. The books are in bad shape,
and it is hard to make heads or tails
out of them.
What the Indictments Charge.
The indictment against M. M.
Lowrey charges him with making
false entries on the banks books and
false entries in the reports TO the
comptroller. A warrant has been
served on Mr.. Lowrey, and he has
given bond in the sum of $4,000,
signed by Messrs. ]. S. Lowrey and
Emmett Rylander.
George D. Wheatley, Jr., is charg-
ed with embezzling $4,000 in one in
stance and $4,000 worth of redeem
ed treasury notes in another in
stance; with abstracting various
other sums and making false entries
on the books of the bank. Wheatley
disappeared when the crash of the
bank came and has not since been
located, though secret service officers
are on his trail.
Ernest c. Hawkins is charged
with abstracting $4,000 from the
bank and making false entries on the
books. Mr.. Hawkins, who is said to
be suffering from a chronic trouble,
is out West for his health.
All of the indictments set forth
specific instances in which these acts
are alleged to have been committed,
and each Indictment contains num-
Der of counts.
It appears from the Investigation
that the true bill against Cashier
Lowrey is on account of technical
ties. and the result of the neglect OF
his official duties as cashier rather
than criminal intent.

Governor Slaton has granted the
requisition of the governor of Missis-

prosecutions pending against the
prisoner in Georgia are disposed of.
Oliver is being held in Lee county
