cation, etc, and how to diversity to
minimize boil weevll losses.

American Salvage
Making Them Rich

(By The Stars and Stripes Service
PARIS, France, Jan. 3O.-While
hundreds of bargain chasers have
gone on the rocks bucking the salvage
game in France since the allied ar
mics began unloading their surplus
stocks, not a few others are credited
with cleaning up fortunes.
One of the latter cases which has
just come to light is that of a French
man who was rag and bone dealer
at Clichy, in the suburbs of Paris.
When the 4. E. F. began Hquidating
its stocks at Saint Pierre des Corpe
undre-et-Loire) last July, this dealer
acquired 100000 pounds of water
proof coats for l franc per 100
pounds
By selling the coats, which cost
him 2 francs per 100 kilos for 1866
francs per 100 kilos, or 200 pounds
the dealer realized $4,000 francs
Since then he has made other large
purchases of salvaged blankets, shoes
boots and similar equipment and is to.
day rated as worth, l 100000 francs.

Have You Lost
Your Health :?

Have you been so busy that you
have forgotten about your body
the most delicately adjusted ma
chine in the world-until some
weak part has broken down and you
are afraid?
No one knows how long the body
should live--if It has Intelligent
care, but we do know that without
a sufficient supply of vitalizing,
life-giving oxygen it wastes away,
and dies-just as plant DROPS and
dies for lack Of water.
Disease is merely the lack Of
some constituent element of the
blood that is necessary to main
tain life. Oxygen is the life-giyar,
the bloodbuilder-the germ-de-
st2vJer. But pumping oxygen into
the lungs is not enough. The blood
must assimilate it. Iron attracts
oxygen just as the magnet attracts
stecl-therefore, if your blood is
abundantly supplied with organic
iron it attracts the oxygen from the
air in the lungs and the blood is
vitalized with life-giving oxygen.

Rssimilated) vitalizing oxygen and

SCOUTS PLANNINC
'COOD-TURN WEEK
Public To Be Asked To
Join In Applying
Motto
BY A SCOUT,

Americas Boy Scouts will observe
National Scout week here in true
Scout style. Sunday, February 8, is
the first day. On this day we are
asking all the ministers of the city to
call attention to the Americas troop 5
plan of celebration.
The purpose of this observation,
or celebration is not to advertise the
Scout movement, but rather to bring
before the public the serious side of
Scouting and bring to the public that
which makes the Scout movement so
beneficial. The public will be invited
by the Scouts to join them in the
DO a Good Turn Daily" for one
week. There will be given out at
each of the churches on Sunday morn
ing of February a badge, or rather
symbol, of the Scout motto. We
want the public to join US in this
week of helping others. We want
you to think about it and when the
opportunity is offered we want each
individual who will faithfully prom
Use to do good turn daily for one
week to permit one of the Scouts to
pin on him this symbol of useful
ness.
On Friday night of February 10
the Scouts will camp, if the weather
will permit, somewhere in or near
the city. Supper will be prepared by
the Scouts themselves and we want
Americas to visit US at that time.
On Saturday, Feb. IA, the Scouts
will ask the people of the city to be-
come associate members of the Amer
icus Boy Scouts. There will be no
begging but we will need about three
hundred dollars to equip the log cabin
and we believe that there are three
hundred people in the city who would
like to join at one dollar per mem
bership. If you wish to give any
thing that the Scouts can use in build
ing the log cabin, that will be ac-
cepted as we only need help in this
building. We earn our own running
expenses.
Carl Humber and Claud Bond are
first class Scouts. If any one needs
first aid call Humber. He can do it.
Watch Bond for merit badges. He is
leading farmer of Troop No. l.
We had a small burn out Friday
night. Two certain Scouts burned
up their Oxometer.
! The Bible has deal to say about
a good foundation. The Eagle pa
troll has been given the job of laying
the foundation of the log cabin. No
need to fear the storms. There isn't
better patrol in Georgia. One GER
tain member sleeps late but he's
there when you do get him up. This
troop has an orator, builder, fnan-
cier, doctor and all the balance.
We know who will be the York of
the next war. In fact there are sew
eral in the Flying Eagle patrol.
All together for the Good-Turn-
Week. If you don't know how or
where to begin just call James Col
Inns. James taught those Philadel-
phians how to put into practice that
brotherly-love creed.
