Sure! High Heels
Cause CornS But
Who Cares Now

Because style DEGREES that women
crowd and buckle up their tender toes
in high heel footwear they suffer from
corns. then they cut and trim at these
painful pests which merely makes the
corn grow hard. This suicidal habit
may cause lockjaw and women ar
warned to stop it.
A few drops of a drug called freez-
one applied directly upon a sore corn
gives quick relief and soon the entire
corn, root and all, lifts out without
pain. Ask the drug store man for g.
quarter of an ounce of freezone, which
costs very little but is sufficient to
remove every hard or soft corn or cal
lus from ones feet.
This drug is an ether compound and
dries in a moment and simply shrivels
up the corn without inflaming or even
irritating the surrounding tissue oA
skin. Clip this out and pin on your

Record Crop Of Wheat
And Oats is Predicted
By Farmers of Kansas

TOPEKA, Kan, June 23.-Kansas
farmers estimate a probable yield of
forty-two million bushels of winter
wheat i'm Kansas this year. or an aver
age of lis bushels to the acre and sew
enty million bushels of oats, accord
ing to the report issued today by j.
c. Mohler, secretary of agriculture. The
best prior yield of oats-in 1sSO-was
$4,000. 900 bushels.
Wheat conditions in the eastern half
of the state have improved during the
past month and oats are especially
promising.
Barley will aggregate $4,000, 900 bush
els, and increase of 100000 over last
year.

nature of this bill will depend in very
large measure upon the outcome OF the
fight to repeal the tax equalization law.
The law making the attorney general
supervisor of county records, passed
last year, will be the subject of at
tention. Under this law the attorney
general, Clifford Walker, has made al
rangements with attorneys in various
counties to enforce the payment of in
heritance taxes on a commission basis
of 10 per cent. The arrangement has
been criticised, but the attorney gen.
eraI says he is repaired to meet these
criticisms when the matter comes up.
There will be a bill to rearrange the
senatorial districts and create five new
districts. There will be bills to create
the new counties of Cook, Treutlen,
Peach, Atkinson and possibly others.
There will be a bill to submit to the
people a constitutional amendment re-
moving the capital from Atlanta to Ma
con. This bill came up in the house
last year and failed. The Macon peo-
pie are still campaigning, however.
There will be a bill to create in the
agricultural department a market bu-
reau. This will have the support of
the state food council recently created.
1t is an important measure not only
for the duration of the war, but as a
means of securing diversified crops in
the future. The department of agricul-
ture is now organizing local warehouse
market companies in the principal coun-
ties. These companies take the farmers
food products and pay him cash, then
prepare the products for market and
ship in car lots to the consuming points.
central market bureau is very essen
tial to complete the plan, by collecting
daily IN Atlanta the latest market quo
tations throughout the country, so as 70
direct the local market companies where
to ship.
An effort will probably be made to
change the status of the state highway
commission, which has accomplished
really remarkable results. considering
the fact that the law providing for it's
establishment gave the commission prac-
tically no authority and no funds.

(By Prof. George Wilson,

In trying to change any established
order OF things al least two steps are
necessary. First you must prove that
the system that you are assailing has
not produced the results which are
conductive to the best interest of the
many. Second, you must prove that
the system which you wish to see es-
tablished will produce better condi-
tions than those existing.
The question that seems to be in
teresting many prominent speakers
and writers is, Are the results OBJ
tanned from our Public School Ssytem
what they should be-" Let's examine
the facts.
We have invested in Public School
property one billion of dollars. We
spent five hundred million a year in
maintaining our Public Schools and
yet more than 20 per cent of our chill
dren quit school before they get thru
the seventh grade and less than 20
per cent graduate from the eighth
grade.
We have more than fourteen mil
lion men in the United States who
have an earning capacity of less than
$4,000 year Why do the children
quit school before completing a Com
mon School Course in the face of the
figures? Do they quit school because
they do not get useful things? The
facts are, they do quit
Were you to convince any business
man that he is losing more than so
per cent of his possible dividends he
would do one of two things, quit bus
mess or change his methods of con-
Quoting his business.
No we do not want to quit the
school business, but, we do want to
change our system.
1--WE want to teach our boys and
girls in terms of their lifes work, in
terms of their understanding, instead
Of terms of their misunderstanding"
May I say that any condition of
society is result of the Educational
System of that society?
At least 100 per cent of our people
are interested in Agriculture. How
much time has been, or is now being
used in teaching that subject? I think
you will agree that a very small part
of the time is used for that purpose.
If the time were used for that pur-
pose what would be the results?
The average wealth per rural citi-
zen in the United States is 1894. The
average in Oklahoma is 1929. Tn Ala
bama it is $3.50. Now look at Illinois
9th her average rural wealth of
s2655.
I know some one will say, ooh!
but Illinois did not reach that CON
dition through her Educational Sys-
tenn. Well, she did reach it by a Sc
1ies of experiments by which WE
should profit.
Who will deny that if the schools
were to turn their attention to the
value of "Diversification in Farming"
that Georgia would approach Illinois
in IFS rural wealth and we know were
we to continue the ONE CROP SYS-
TEN that we would approach Ala
5ama.
All we need to do in order to
change is to mold public opinion. Who
can do this better than the school
teacher?
Can this be done in any better way
than by teaching the value of Di-
versification.
Illinois raises not only her own
feed and food but an abundance for
other people and she has wealth as a
result, to the extent of $2655 per rur-
exclusively One Crop System and
has $3.50.

to admit that many Of the things that
