One of the very things which have
been badly needed in Vidalia, is a
real first-class cafe, which would be
close to the depot so that it could
serve people going out on the morn
ing train, or any other train, with a
sure enough meal prepared in tho
utmost sanitary manner. Such place
has been established, and is now a
going concern. The writer has. visi-

from Jonesville, but has decided to
cast his lot in Vidalia. We welcome
him with us, and bespeak for him a

by Pliny the Elder, who calls II

The Roman sage adds that it was an
old and well-tried system Of building
and remarks that Hannibal used this
material for watch towers on the tops

Who knows whether it was not also
in use when Cheops built his Great

most to that period?
Certainly history cannot trace the

More than one million and half
of farmers in the United States have
done something that farmers never
did before in the history of the
world. They have organized. The
Farm Bureaui Federation is the
name of their organization.
While the Ralston-Nolan Revenue
Bill is up before the law makers of
the United States, the farmers of
the nation will have their own rep
resentatives at Washington to see
to it that the interests OF asricultur-
lists are safeguarded.

mers of America the value of or
ganization and of united effort.
The Farm Bureau Federation
while the bill is under consideration
will speak not with the voice of one
man-but it will be more than a mil
lion and half of farmers all de-
handing justice.
The preamble of the Ralston-No-
Ian Revenue Bill states its purpose
very clearly.

duce the excessive tax burden on

WANTED-A Good, Reliable
Pack Mule For Tax Burden

One billion dollars of taxation
$4,000, 1000 is to be lifted
from business enterprises and plac-
ed upon the country districts accord
ing to the provisions of the Ralston
Nolan Revenue Bill now pending in
Washington.
The United States needs all the
revenue that is available. The Con-
gress and the Senate know that.
So it is matter not of less taxa
ton, but a simple affair of shifting
the weight from one set of should
ers to another
The farmers of the bill, in other
words, are looking for good re-
liable pack mule. And the farmers
of the country are to be part of
that mule.
For much of this billion dollar
burden will fall upon the farmer of
1the United States, make no mistake
about that.
This is one fact.
Now read another fact.
rns COMMITTEE nI Manufacturers
and Merchants on Federal Taxa
ton intends to raise fund of from
100000 to $500, 900 to help make
the Ralston-Nolan Revenue Bill
law.
In other words, big business and
little business, too, considers that
a half million dollars is a. good in
vestment if theeby the billion dol
lars revenue every year can be plac-
ed on other shoulders. t,
There is no secrecy about the
work. Otto Cullman, chairman the
Executive Committee, in public
letter has outlined the plan for rails
ing the half million dollar fund and
also how ii is to be spent The
half million dollars will go into an
educational campaign, says Mr.. Gull
man in his letter:
Literature setting forth the rea-
sons for the adoption of the bill
has already been printed ana is now
ready for distribution. The effec-
tive distribution Of from three mil
lion to five million pamphlets and
circulars, together with the activi-
ties of a we'll organized Speakers
Bureau and Publicity Department
will be sufficient. it is believed, to
overcome opposition.
THE second part of the program
will be political. The interest Of
the business men of the country
having once been sufficiently arous-
ed, the energies of this Committee
will be directed on Congress.
"To carry out effectively the pro-
gram outlined above fund of. from
$500, 900 to 100000 will be solicit
ed"

THE GROWING CHILD
By the U. S. Public Health servie
Lateral Curvature of the Spine.

Broadly speaking lateral curvature of the spine may be divided into two classes functional and structual-though there seems to be an Intermediate or transition al stage between the two. A, functional lateral curve is a posturals one of mild degree, in which no actual change in bone has taken place. In a structural. or or ganic, lateral curve, certain changes have occurred in the bones of the spine and the ribs. These may vary from the mild case, in which these changes are not extensive. to the severe form where the alterations in the bones are marked and the deformity is extreme.
 The ordinary case of round shoulders" or round back differs from lateral cllrv- ature in that the former is simply an exaggeration of the normal forward and
 backward curves of the spine usually
 associated with an abnormal forward po-
 sition of the shoulder blades while the
 latter is a bending of the spine to one or both sides. In the ''hunch back of the tuberculosis spine, the condition is due to past or present disease, while in lateral curvature the changes in the bones are not due to disease in the spine but to abnormal pressure and strain. l "Hunch back" and lateral curvature may
 exist together. but they are very diff 1 ferent conditions.
 | ature is invariably accompanied by s twisting of the spine, and this twisting is
 responsible for the projection backward or fullness of one side of the back The position of this fullness in relation to the l lateral curve is the distinguishing feature l between functional and organic latera | curvature. It has been found that about i 25 per cent of school children are ar | fected with some form of lateral curva. ture, the larger proportion of which k l the functional type.
 Lateral curvature may be due to any one or more of many causes, and il 1 some cases it is impossible to point tC 1 any particultr case. In general terms i | may be said to be the result of any con.
 dition that causes the spine to be helC habitually in a curved position durinl
 the growing period. Weak muscles ant 1 a certain yielding quality of bone ar l conditions that favor it's development.

MT. Roswell.s Statement.

Mr Editor: I wish to correct the piece published in The Bulletin of Oc- toher 14th, concerning my character In regard to the Miner trouble I had letter from Mrs. Aldrich on August z5, stating that her son was in trouble and asking me to come to see her. I went there and while there I saw the little girl playing out in the yard and asked her if she was the girl that had trouble with MT. Aldrich, and she said that she was. 1 asked her if there was any truth truth in it and she said there was not Later I asked her about it again and she said she did not remember. Mrs Miner asked me if I was an officer and I told her I was agent of the state hu- mane society. She wanted me to take the little girl away with me and I said no. She then asked me if I knew of any good family that would take the girl and send her to school as she was afraid they would take her and put her away in the "home." I told her did not but a few minutes later, while talking with my wife and Mrs. AIdrich, my wife thought per haps our daughter, Mrs. Atwood, would l take the girl and send her to school with l Ter year old son. I went back into 1 the Miner yard little later, but Mrs. Miner and the girl had gone out. so
 I left word with Mrs Aldrich concerning my daughter taking the girl. The next 1 day I received a letter from Mrs Min l er asking that Mrs. Atwood come down ! and get the girl. She went down next day and took the little girl home with 1 her.
 Now in regards to me trying to ,aRt l the child out of the state so she could not testify against Mrs. Aldrich, that k not testify against MT. Aldrich, that is 1 that She asked two other parties tt | take her out of the state but I would not let them do it. She wanted to go ul to Vermont on a visit with Mrs. Atwood ] but I told her she could not go until aft
 CT the court As for my telling the gir
 what to say in court, I told her to tel the truth and she said she would. Sht 1 told my wife and Mrs. Atwood that sht l might tell the truth and she might tel | a lie.
 The girl is slightly unbalanced and i:
 not quite. right, and is not responsible fol what she says as we found out before | she had been with us week. Her
 grandparents also told Mrs. Atwood tha
 the girl was not quite right. Mrs. At
 wood saw the girl in Pomfret after court
 and asked her why she told such lie.
