PROGRAMME FOR WEEK


 | Give the number of men in the va rious units of the army, as the squad, platoon, company, battalion regiment and division, and the title of the officer in charge of each.
 ?. State the events of the great war during the month of August.
 3 A brief talk by the scoutmaster on the first scout law.
 4. Explain what in your estimation constitutes a "slacker' in scouting.
 WAR SERVICE CUP
 The troop efficiency cup will continue to be awarded but another beautiful cup is to be awarded by F. w. Bromberg to the troop which makes the best show ing each month in war work activities, the points to be reckoned from head quarters record of war service under service bar rules The winning troop to hold the cup for the month following the award, the troop number and the date to be engraved, and then the slate wiped clean and new start made for the next month. This cup is in Birning- ham now and will be known as the "Brcmberg cup"
 LIBERTY LOAN NOTICE
 Owing to protests received by the Lib erty loan committee from some of the committees working in the last cam paign and the fact that some scouts violated the rules and solicited bonds before the date scouts were allowed to enter the campaign, and a few have begun soliciting for the next loan, even at this early date the Birmingham scouts will probably be barred from this campaign So take no promises and to all who have intimated that they are going to hold bonds for you, tell them that the thing for them to do is to sub scribe through the proper committee of the allied armies when first approached. To stay out will be keen disappont- ment, but many other fields of patriotic service stil, remain open

The pictures today represent both work and play. No. l, taken the day the
 negro selectmen were leaving, shows just
 how tired a scout can look. The one who looks as though he had about
 reached the limit of his endurance is Dan Dimick of Troop F. who, like his father, will work 9 hours day on any job that can be called war work" and then not be satisfied. In addition to
 holding the crowds back on the days when the drafted men leave, scouts fit in anywhere else they can as in handing out lunches or water as in No. 2 Since the plan of awarding service bars for war work has been started there is not enough work to go around. In NO. Jack Caldwell (2O and Fletcher King CD are congratuating each other on having been the first two scouts in the district to earn the red, white and blue bars, signifying 100 hours of war work since the first of the month They are off,
 neck and neck in the race for the silver service bar which stands for 800 hours. Credit is not given for war work unless
 the work has been assigned by head quarters, o, an o. K. is turned in from some government representative under whose direction the work was performed.
 The awards from the treasury depart ment are beginning to come in now. Scout

No. 6 gives a correct imitation of scout full of "pep" and having a hard time to keep from exploding with suppressed steam It's a far cry from selling Lib- erty Bonds to dancing the hula-hula (No. D, but scouts are taught to fit into the scheme of things under any circum- stances.

COLDS AND GRIPPE \
YIELD TO CALOTABS

To break up cold over night or
to cut short an attack of influenza,
or grippe, physicians and druggists
are now recommending Calotabs, the
new nausealess calomel, that is puri-
fled from all dang erous and sicken-
ing effects. Those who have tried
it say that it acts like magic, by far
more effective and certain than the
old style calomel, heretofore recon-
mended by all physicians.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time with a swallow of water-that's
all. No salts, no nausea nor the
slightest interference with eating,
work or pleasures. Next morning
your cold has vanished and your
whole system feels refreshed and pu-
rified. Calotabs is sold only in orig
inal sealed packages, price 35 cents.
Recommended and guaranteed by all
druggists. Your money back if you
are not delighted. adv.

WAR PERIOD RICH
IN DISCOVERIES

That medical science is not asleep
during the war is proven BY the man
ner in which the possibilities offered
By the discovery Of Irogen were in
stantly realized and developed for the
good Of humanity.
lrogen, it is claimed, IS a discov-
cry for the weak. Weak nerves, weak
muscles, weak stomachs = in fact,
weak organs in general are greatly
strengthened by it, and those who
have taken it claim that even weak
compilations, pale and sallow, take on
the rudy appearance Of health under
its influence.
Warning is given, however, that
owing to its we'll known flesh-build-
ing powers, Irogen should not be Ia
ken by any one who does not desire
to add flesh.
Note. Irogen, the product mention
ed above, is now on sale in Munford
by Alternately Drug Co; in Atoka by
r. G. Tenant; in Burlison by Bur
lison Store Co.. in Richardson by A.
I. Lacey & Co., an by the leading
druggists in practically every city,
town and village in the state.

lust About Town

The wood advertisement of A. s. Bayne 6 Co.,, the realty agents, who are cleaning the timber off of a new Brinkley ad- dition and are offering to sell same at 25cts a load, reminds me of fuel conditions in Brink ley last winter when this same wood, off of the same land, sold as high as Sl0 to SIP per cord. At this particular time a crowd of public spirited citizens who saw the conditions and desired to protect and assist the women and children of the city and or. ganized wood yard, trudged to the woods thro' the snow, with hired labor, had the wood haul ed and when the wood famine was over found that they had a deficit of about $40. This amount was paid by the same busy busi- ness men, who stopped their business to serve others during the snow storm and fuel famine. This winter the probability is that there will be even a worse fuel famine. The Government has issued an order that no cars will be used for hauling wood, so it is high time that at least a few loads of wood at 25 cts. per load, as much as you can haul on a 2 horse wagon, was being put in your yard ss a'reserve supply. It's fair warning to one and all, for Im guessing that the busy business men will not take the time, trouble and cash to be get ting wood next winter for those who just WON'T GET IT NOW, Fair warning.

Among the Farmers

Comes my real estate friend, Frank Federer. with about the prettiest showing of cotton stalk I've seen in some time. Frank is farming as well as dealing in real estate and has a large acre. age of cotton.
 John Turner, a colored farmer living at Zent, was one of the the many bringing in cotton blooms last week. John has 30 acres of waist high cotton, all perfectly fruited,
 Pm glad to note the interest that was taken by our farmers in the U. s. Land Loan Associa- tion, that was organized in Brinkley last Saturday. It means that our farmers are going to avail themselves of the low in- terest rate furnished them by the Government and when they do this they will pay more at tention to the Government when it speaks along other lines. The U. s. Government SAYS build real roads and says too that there is only ONE way to build them and that is by paying the cash for them, by issuing bonds. Our farmers are about to knock the scales from their eyes.
 Eugene A. Skillern, High Lord Mayor of Lynchville, was in Brinkley Wednesday. He re- ports crops fine on his plantation.

Henley, Sec'y and Treas. and these gen. tlemed together, with Ed Briar and w. M. Patterson, form the managing Board of Directors.
 This should mean much to the farmers of the Brinkley territory who are entitled to the benefit of cheap money and financial as- sistance just as much, if not more, than members of any other branch of the worlds busi- ness.
 When our farmers come into into their own the day of the baneful crop mortgage will pass away and our country will blos- som as flower garden.
 Many of the colored farmers are taking advantage of the Governments cheap money and they deserve it, too. for they are progressive and hard work inp

 lati0n of Food
 Laws

On Saturday afternoon last H. c. Mitchell, acting under in- struction of County Food Com missioner Jesse w. Brown closed the two Brinkley restaurants, Frenchy's Cafe and Ash's Cafe in Hotel Rusher for violation of the flour regulations. Both were allowed to open again Sun day morning but the final action on their cases has not been taken. It is said that fines will probably be assessed.
 The Store of the Keevil Mer- cantile Co.,, at Keevil was closed by County Food Commissioner Brown for one week and a fine of S25.00 was assessed, said amount going to County Red Cross Society.
 This action Is the first effect of the strong arm" of Uncle Sam in Monroe county.
 All merchants are required to rigidly observe the regulations and use of the OFFICIAL flour and sugar cards, and it will pay them.
