Thirty-FOur Counties

Atlanta, Georgia, January 1.
Local cchool tax elections were
held in Georgia counties during
the past few days. One county,
Jasper, voted for a local tax to
supplement the school fund re-
ceived from the state, while the
other county, Habersham, defeat
ed the proposition.
There are now "a Georgia
counties which assess a local tax
for school purposes, thus illus
trating their intention not to
lean alone upon the state for the
support of their schools. The
state school department hopes
that within the next few years
every one Of the 148 counties Of
the state will have provided for
such a tax, which is believed will
greatly facilitate educational
work in the state and also ma
terially raise the standard of the
county schools.
Those counties which assess a
local school tax are: Ben Hill,
Bib, Burke, Camden, Chatham,
Coffee, Columbia, Crisp, Echols,
Emanuel, Fulton, Glynn, Han
cock, Henry, Houston, Irwin,
Jasper, Jeff Davis, Jenkins. Jones,

S[ATON SUGGESTS
CHANGE OF VENUE
Trial of Mrs. Irby's Slayer
Deferred.

Atlanta, Dec. 81. "A change
of venue for the three negroes
accused of the murder of Mrs.
Jefferson Irby, was suggested in
a telegram sent this afternoon
by Gov. John M. Slaton to Judge
Rawlings at Louisville, Ga. The
negroes were to have been tried
at Louisville tomorrow, but Gov.
Slaton announced that, pending
Judge Rawlings decision upon
his request, the suspects would
be held in Jail in Atlanta.
the murder of Mrs. Irby was
an unusually brutal one, and
lynching is feared if the negroes
are taken back to Louisville for
trial. One of the prisoners is
said to have confessed.
The sheriff of Jefferson county
came to Atlanta and spent most
of the day in the Governors re-
ception room, waiting for assur-
ance that troops would be pro.
vided. He stated that he did not
propose to bulge the negroes
toward Louisville unless he had
a military escort Of two hundred
men, and added that he did not
propose to be shot up along with
the negroes if a lynching took
place.
Solicitor General R. Lee Moore
also conferred with the Governor
as to the situation in jefferson
county.

Old People Need
A Bowel Sti1711IIa11t
Inc Ideal One is Mild Laxative
Tonic that Will Keep the Bowels
Gently Active.

Healthy old age is so absolutely de-
pendent upon the condition of the bow
els that great care should be taken to
see that they act regularly. The fact
is that as age advances the stomach
muscles become weak and inactive and
the hVer does not store up the juices
that are necessary to prompt digestion.
Some help can be obtained by eating
easily digested foods and by plenty of
exercise, but this latter is irksome to
most elderly people. One thing is Ger
tain, that a state of constipation should
always be avoided, as it is dangerous
TO LIE and health. The best plan is
to take a mild laxative as often as is
deemed necessary. But with equal GER
talnty it is suggested that cathartics,
purgatiVes, physics, salts and pills be
avoided, as they do but temporary good
and are SO harsh as to be a shock to a
delicate system
mucn better plan and one that
thousands of elderly people are follow
ing, is to take a gentle laxative tonic
like Dr. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin, which
acts as nearly like nature as is posi-
bic. In fact, the tendency of this
remedy is to strengthen the stomach
and bowel muscles and so train them
to act naturally again, when medicines
hf all kinds can usually be dispensed
with. This a the opinion of many
people of different ages, among them
