DR.. HASKELL TO
LEAVE FOR EAST
Completes Organization
Of New Chamber Of
Commerce

DR. Horace B. Haskell, field secre-
tary for the American City Bureau,
who has been conducting the re-or-
ganization work of the Chamber of
Commerce, following completion of
the membership campaign, is draw
ing his work to a close and plans to
leave Americas for headquarters in
New York Friday night. He expects
to complete his report and turn over
all the office details to the local Off
GERS Friday.
Today Dr. Haskell asked the
Times-Recorder to express for him to
the public his appreciation of the
manner in which he had been receiv-
ed by the people of this community
and of the assistance he had receiv-
ed in carrying out his work.
DR.. Haskell is a man of scholarly
attainments and wide experience, as
all who have come in contact with
him have discovered. Until the be-
ginning of the war he was for five
years in charge of all American edu-
cational work in the Ottoman empire,
working under the Methodist Episco-
pal church, and two years of that
time he had his residence in Jerusa-
lem. Returning to this country when
the war began, he became president
of Beaver College, Methodist fe-
male college, at Beaver, Pa, which
position he held for two years, until
he Joined the American City forces
and became a part of that ,organiza-
ton. His present home is at Orange,

No Opposition Met
In Rate Hearing Delay

Mayor j. E. Sheppard and City At
torney w T. Lane returned early
Thursday morning from Atlanta
where they represented the electric
ity and gas consumers of the com
munity when the application of the
Americas Lighting company for an
increase in rates was called for pub
lie hearing at 10 o'clock Wednesday
before the state railroad commission.
Manager ]. E. Johnson, who was
present as the Americas representa-
tive of the company, remained in At
lanta for a day longer.
"The continuance was granted by
agreement and without any discus
sion before the commission" said Mr..
Lane. "The city informed the rep
resentatives of the Lighting company,
that, while it had some data ready
to present, it was not ready to make
a proper showing, owing to the i'll

Wife of Manager of Postal Tele-
graph Co. Says Pomeroy's
Puaton Is Worth Its Weight
In Gold.

"Pomeroy's puratone has been
worth its weight in gold to me, and if
it sold for one hundred dollars bot
tie | would buy it just the same"
This remarkable statement was
made the other day by Mrs. Ada E.
Williamson, a prominent Americas,
Ga, woman who resides at 230 South
Jackson street, and whose husband
is manager for the Postal Telegraph
Company.
'My friends all tell me that l look
like a different woman" continued
Mrs. Williamson, "and | always an
swer by saying that Pomeroy's Pura-
tone is responsible for the wonderful
change.
For two years l suffered terribly
with indigestion and nervousness. Ny
appetite was poor, and the little | was

so nervous at times | could not stand
the least noise out of the ordinary,
and it was almost impossible for me
to sit down and read a newspaper or

could hardly get my breath. was
losing weight and strength rapidly,
and became greatly discouraged.
81 heard about the wonderful good
Pomeroy's Puratone was doing in
Americas and decided to give the
medicine a trial. I was surprised af-
ter taking just a few doses to find
that / was rapidly improving. My
appetite increased, and now after
taking four bottlesso f Puratone | can
eat most anything / want and not
suffer in the least afterwards. Gas
no longer forms on my stomach, and
| am now able to take long, deep
breaths for the first tins in over a
year. Ny nerves are perfectly calm
again, and | can sleep all night and
get up in the mornings feeling rested
and refreshed. l have gained won
derfully in both weight and strength,

the same way.
1t seems almost impossible that a
medicine could, do so much for a per-
son who was in the dreadful condi-
ton | was in, but it is the truth,
nevertheless, and any Of my friends
will verify my statement. AS l said
before, Pomeroy's Puratone would be
cheap at one hundred bottle"
Puratone is sold in Americas by
the Carswell Drug Co. If there is no
Puratone dealer in your town, Pome-
roy & Company, Atlanta, Ga, will
fill your orders at $1,04 per bottle,
postpaid. (adv.)

been city engineer for a number of
years and the man upon whose tech
meal information the city would have
to rely largely. The city was not
required to file it's answer, but the
hearing was passed over till April Is,

To light the home and cook the food of every
family,
To pump the water run the dairy thresh and
grind the grain and gin the cotton upon all of her
farms,
To drive the wheels of every machine and fac
tory,
And draw every trolley and train within her
borders.
The Secretary of Agriculture, in his report of
1916 to the United States Senate, giving figures which
he says subject to correction states that Georgia
has potential power in her streams amounting to
1000 horsepower.
The records of the State GeoIogist show
Georgia has 100000 horsepower 10 her water

But up to July. 1919, only 100000 horsepower
had been developed, leaving 1870, 900 horsepower
going to waste.
From 1901 to 1919 (IS years. only 10000
horsepower were developed in Georgia.

E. Chicago
Fight Off

The Freedman Mitchell fight which
was scheduled for the East Chicago
arena next Monday night has been
called off and Freedman has been
barred from the East Chicago ring as
long as the present management has
charge All of the trouble was caused
because Joe Thomas. Freedman's man
ager. refused TO allow Freedman TO
fight because he feared it would hurt
the attendance at the Milwaukee fight
Tuesday night and vice versa
Thomas agreed 10 let Freedfan fight
a week from Monday night but Oswego
had already signed his card and had
his advertising out SO he refused to
have the fight on any other than next
Monday night. Thomas also stuck to
his statement and the ban on Freedman
followed.
The management hasn't any definite
plans for the next fight but It probably
Will be the big one originally planned
or November IL. BY that time the
management expects to have the arena
enclosed and viii be able TO sign a
good card.
