CHICAGO, May 16-Jno G. Schwei-

days because he is puzzled. So is his
19-year-old wife, Agnes. Likewise
Capt. Thomas Gornich, late of the Ar

John is worried because Agnes, whom
he married in January, may not be
his wife, according to the lave of
marriage. She is perplexed for the
same reason. And the captain-well,
as far as he knows, he is the legal
husband of Johns wife.
Here's the story: When Schweizer's
last wife, Katherine, died he was left
alone with 8year-old Willie. Willie
was in the wild stage and needed at
tention. So John advertised for a
housekeeper.
That's how Agnes came into his
life.
She applied for the position last New
Years Day and was accepted. She told
story of how her husband, Thomas

BAPTISTS SEND
GREETINGS TO
PRESBYTERIANS

ATLANTA, May 16.-Telegrams of
friendly spirit have been sent by the
Southern Baptist convention in At
lanta to the assembly of the. Presby-
terrain church, South, meeting in New
Orleans, and that of the Northern
Presbyterian church, in session in st.
Louis. The kilograms were written
by DR.. Henry Allen Topper of Wash
ington, d. c., and offered in resolu-
tons by him. They follow:
THE Southtrn Baptist convention,
Atlanta, Ga, sends fraternal greet
ings, with the prayer and hope that
the divine Master Builder will guide
us in this supremely important recon
struction era in the worlds history
Romans eighth chapter, verses twenty
eight and twenty nine"
The Baptist convention in Atlanta
will be followed by a convention OF
Presbyterians next month which is as
large, is not larger, than the Baptist
gathering. This is the Laymen's Mis-
/ SNOudly mONSIlSuI Vi Tie OOuLH6Iu
Presbyterian church, which meets
June 10 and II. The convention will
be double one, for the men and wo-
men will hold separate meetings, and
will be addressed in many instances
by the same speakers. Distinguished
speakers from all parts of the coun-
try and foreign fields will be here, and
the convention promises to be one OF
the most interesting and instructive
that has ever been held in the South
President Woodrow Wilson has been
invited to speak at this convention
and he has advised the local commit
tee that he will come if other engage
ments do not prevent Dr. Marion

the committee which is making up the
program.

WHEAT BEING
HARVESTED ON
TRACTORFARM

Out on the Rylander farm, five miles
from Americas, on the new highway
between the Murray's Ferry bridge
over Flint river and this city, there is
one of the prettiest fields ever viewed
by agricultural workers anywhere
A broad expanse of fertile acres de-
voted to the production of an abund-
ant wheat crop is being harvested
there with modern improved tractor
machines, pulling reapers and bind
ers, and the stacks of garnered grain
have been laid with accuracy at stat
ed intervals, the whole giving the
passer-by the impression of newly
planted orchard, with trees equi-dis-
tant over it's whole area
This fertile farm, long recognized
as one of the best improved in Sum-
ter county. produces sufficient meat
and grain for all it's needs in addition
to an annual cotton crop, and this year
it is said, the grain harvest will be one
of the most abundant ever made
there A feature of interest in con
nection with this grain crop is the
fact that it was produced entirely by
means of modern machinery, tractors
being used extensively during the
whole OF the cultivation period. Tht
soil was prepared for the seed witt
plows operated va tractor, and thu
expense for labor considerably dimin
ished there.
Recently a number of farmers from
plantations in various parts of thu
county have visited the Rylander farm
to witness the operations of the rrac
tor used in the harvesting work there
and as a result it is indicated mex
season will witness a substantial in
crease in the number of these ma
chimes used for like purposes on Sum
| ter farms.

Castor Oil, Taken

Classed as Luxury

"A sioner of internal revenue has

The ruling, according to young

the merit of being interesting. Elk
emption from war tax will not
make castor oil popular with the
boys and girls of Atlanta, of Geor
gia and of the South, who are com
