For Ski, Tortures

Don't worry about eczema or other
skin troubles. Yoc can have a clear,
healthy skin by using Zemo, obtained
at any drug store for 35c, or extra large
bottle at $1.00.
Zemo generally removes pimples,
blackheads, blotches, eczema and ring
worm and makes the skin clear and
healthy. Zemo is clean, penetrating,
antiseptic liquid, neither sticky nor
greasy and stains nothing. 1t is easily
applied and costs mere trifle for each
application. 1t is always dependable.

CIVIC LEAGUE PLANS

MEMBERS CONFER WITH NEW MAYOR ON CLEANUP PLANS COMMITTEE APPOINTED FOR EACH OF THE WARDS.

If Marianna isn't given thorough cleaning within the next three weeks it won't be the fault of the members of the Civic Improvement League. who met at the Elks Home on Tues day morning of this week and held a conference with Jesse M. Johnston. who becomes mayor of the city next Monday night. Mrs R. L. Nixon, president ot the league; Mrs. c. N. Houck, the secretary, and a dozen members attended the conference and decided upon some of the details of the cleanup campaign. The time for the cleanup will be fixed by the mayor and members of the council at the meeting Monday night It IS planned to devote an entire week to the work, and those who have had occasion to inspect some of the sore spots of Marianna are confident 1t will take al the six days of the wee~ Circulars will be distributed over the city calling upon all the people to clean up their premises and cart the garbage to the dumping ground designated by the city. Those whc are unable tl pay for drays will be accommodated by city ,eams.
 The committee of ladies appointed to look after the first ward is com posed of Mesdames. R. l.. Nixon, Carrie Louise Apple and o. L. Will iamson. From the second ward the committee is Mesdames. E. J. Beaz- ley and W D. Newborn. From the third ward the committee is Mes danes A. A. McClendon and M. E. Newborn Mrs J. I. Morris and Miss Frances Derrick were appointed on a special committee to look after the business district.
 Mrs Morris made report showing the plans for the improvement Of the City Park.
 The League depends upon the small dues of ten cents per month from it's members for funds with which to carry on it's work. This, of i course, yields insufficient rsvenue 1 for an extended improvement cam paign such as is now launched. While no effort has been made to solicit additional funds from the business in- ! stitutions and citizens who are not , affiliated with the League, the off cers made it plain they would well come contributions from those who feel disposed to assist in this worthy enterprise.
