You can turn gray, faded hair beau

after one or two applications the gray
hair vanishes and your locks become
luxuriantly dark and beautiful-aii
dandruff goes, scalp itching and fall-

This is the age of youth. Gray-hair-
ed, unattractive folks aren't want
ed around, SO get busy with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur tonight, and you'll

The Public
Safety Value
Editor Times-Recorder:

1t seems as though the papers and
periodicals of the north are bent OIL a
So stematic campaign to place the
grand old state of Georgia in the
wrong light. Following the recent
incident near Marietta, the papers
and periodicals across the Masons
and Dixon line have taken every op-
portunity to take a poke at the best
state in the union.
The latest stab at this state to come
under my observation appears in tie
Saturday Evening Post for October 2.
In this paper, established nearly 200
years ago by Benjamin Franklin is a.
story by Reginald Earle LOCKER, un-
Ger the caption of "Powdertown."
The opening paragraph of this ar
tiole reads: "Persikos read his Greek
newspaper by the fitful glare of an
oil lamp. The yellow flame f1ared ana
black smoke blew into his face. He
clicked, spat on the restaurant floor
and kept on reading a GEORGIA
LYNCHING STORY"
AS if to infer that lynchings are
common everyday occurrences in
Georgia, and that any news from this
state is necessarily of that nature. The
writer of this article takes an under
handed method to besmirch the good
name of Georgia.
The Saturday Evening Post enjoys
a good circulation In this state, but
many more attacks like this will sooE
make it an unpopular maagzine in the
Empire State of the South.
The editors of the North are prone
to look upon lynching in Georgia as
the worst crime possible to commit.
They attempt to preach to Georgia
when they often have lynchings right
in their own states. Anyone famil-
lar with current events will bear me
cut in this statement. Only recently
a minister was lynched by a North
ern mob, and the Northern papers
failed to comment on the act further
than to carry the news story.
Georgia is well able to take care of
herself. The Georgia papers can mold
the moral standard of this state with
out outside help. Let the Northern
newspapers wash their own dirty linen
and let Georgia alone.
I do not deny that lynchings occu.
in Georgia. No one in the state re-
grets every incident of this nature
more than l. But to have the papers
OF the North attempt to remove mote
from our eye when they have beam,
and big beam at that, in their own
is enough to stir every patriotic citi-
zen of this state.
There is no state in the union where
law and order means more than in
Gorgia. But IL the northern papers
and the Saturday Evening Post con.
tinue what seems to be a systematic
attempt to besmirch the good name Of
this state, people in other sections of
the United States will finally form a
wrong opinion Of Georgia.

FELLOWSHIP.

"FELL0WSHIP.'
There are many who would captain
any company you'd raise,
There are scores who'd give the or
ders and expect the praise;
But just what's needed most in men
who, loyal to their trust,
Are willing to be followers and do
whate'er they must.
There're hundreds who would presi-
dent the corporations strong,
And plan the work and boss the job
and drive the drudgery throng;
But there must be millions who, each
man in rank, will do
The work laid out, in lowly place, each
faithful, careful, true.
And so I've come to think there may
be leaderships too mnh

Positions, and the worlds great need
in war or peace, is plain:

early part of the Eocene chapter. perhaps eight to ten million years ago. A report recently issued by the geological survey discusses this miss ing part of the record and shows that the break must cover long period of time. It is known that at that time the continents were at least as large as and probably larger than they are now, and the oceans were accordingly smaller. Any rocks that were then formed in the sea seem to have been weathered and washed away.
 Hundreds of kinds of plants and animals that lived before and hun dreds that lived after this great pc rlod are known, but not one which lived during the period Strange to say, few if any of the species which existed before the unknown period lived through it. In each of the states bordering the Atlantic ocean. south of New York and the Gulf of Mexico, are layers of rock which were formed be- fore and after the period whose rec ord is missing. In these layers are entombed sea shells of many kinds. but apparently not one species lived through from Crataceous to Eocene time.
