attempt will be made at detailed description Of this
marvel to say that il is "three-piece affair
consisting OF "a foundation waist and knickerbocl-
ers" which be for homework and athletics
For more formal there is "oversp" to be
varied in material and design suit the occasion

Some representative women have registered their
approval of the costume and their intention OF
adopting it. The president OF the league says
these believe that II generally adoE ted the
uniform will insure democracy among women. pro-
mote morality by doing away with vulgar display OF

And satin pajamas and ties,

But nothing the traders have got 70

As records OF musical shows on

To play in his talking machine.

 Plan Free Attractions
 The association is planning on 8 number of free attractions for the visitors, such as aeroplane flights, by skilled aviators, etc. The Veal Brothers shows. which is one of the largest carnival company's in the United States, will furnish attraction for the midway.
 The first day Is set aside as Syy- aca'uga, and good roads day. Prac- tically every business house in Syla- caugh is expected to close its doors on this day and give the employees the benefit of the opening day. As an attraction for this day the Syla- cauga- Mingnon independent football team will meet the Oneonta Outlaws at the fairgrounds.
 The second day will be Ford day Every person drivlns car that day will get his car admitted into the ground free of charge providing he has at least two passengers who have purchased tickets.
 The third day will be Talladega, ex- x-soIdiers, and Shriners day. This is expected to be one of the biggest days. There will also be special at fractions on this day.
 The fourth day is children's day All schools in the county are expected to turn out and bring the pupils to the fair The State Secondary Sch pol of Agriculture will meet the ialla- dega High school in game of foot ball.
 The fifth day is everybody's day. A large crowd is expected on this day.
 Merchants Cooperate
 Tie Sylacauga merchants have all joined in with the officers of the association in a plan that Is proving to be a great advertiser for the fair. With every $1 worth of cash trade with a local merchant the customer will be given coupon, and the holder of this coupon will be en- titled to a chance at $250 to be given away at the fair. Each day during the fair a number will be drawn from the box, and the holder of the coupon that bears the cores bonding number will receive $50 This will be repeated daily through out the five days at the fairgrounds,
 Secretary Landham states that the fair Is more widely advertised than it has ever been, and with the ear nest assistance he Is receiving from II. D. Brown. president. and W. T. Coker and Fred Prather vice presi- dents, 1t Is believed that the coming fair will be the best yet held

Heart trouble is today the deadliest of all diseases and more fatal than Tuberculosis. Over one hundred and sixty thousand Americans are being killed every year through Heart and Circulatory Troubles. which are con stantly increasing. the fatalities being more than one-third greater than in 1900. Over 10 per cent of all deaths are caused by Heart Disease. And yet the wonderful Discovery of a Scientist, Mir. R. V. Walden, and the almost miraculous results he Is obtaining in restoring chronic sufferers of these fatal diseases and prolonging their lives. without the use of drugs, medi- efnes, serums and operations. shows Chat the true causes have never beeu Understood. for without a removal of Aose causes that are responsible in producing the symptoms of these and improvement and final relief can be expected

 Some time during the next week there will be several community fairs held throughout the county. and it Is believed that there will be several of these communities who will bring their exhibits to the county fair, where their work will be placed be- fore the great crowds that are eX- pected. The Alabama Marble conn pany, Wisconsin Alabama Lumber company, Avondale Mills. and all in- dustries around Sylacauga will have on display the kind of work their industries are turning out. it is said. It was announced this week that the Alabama Polytechnic Institute of Auburn will have a display of live stock from that great experiment sta- ticn. Also in connection with this part of the fair there will be live stock judging contest held, something similar to the one held at the state fair. The schools are expected to have a large part of the main exhibit hall occupied with samples of their work.

Eutaw, October S.- (Speci IL J. Twenty-six representative citizens of Eutaw and the surrounding coun- try, in half a. dozen automobiles, made a good-roads pilgrimage into the extreme southern part of the county Thursday for the specific pur- pose of looking over the proposed new highway that will give a more direct connection between the county seat and Forkland. Incidentally they took advantage of the occasion to look over some of the splendid rarms that have been developed in the prairie section immediately south of Eutaw during the last few years. They also went through the old Tisn- abee section. which 50 years ago was the richest part of the county, but which now has been almost ;Lbdn- doned by white people, though'it is still great producer of cotton.
 Among those making the trip were Probate Judge B. E. Barnes, County Commissioner Salter County Agent E. P. Scott, representatives of the chamber of commerce. and a number of well-known business and profess sional men and farmers

Yet older cit izeps of Eutaw remember when state ly pillared houses stood on almost every plantation of the Tishabee neighborhood. In this section lived such well known families as the Sors- bys, Herndons, Golfers, Inses, Pierces, Garretts, knotts Braggs, Balt2elles, and others.

 And the good roads are only question of time During the past year the county has graded up the road from Forkland through the Tishabee country. and now it is pro- posed to build six or seven miles Ot new road that will connect Forkland and Eutaw with hard surfaced highway that will make communica- tion easy and quick at all seasons of the year. When this road is built, 1t will save not only four miles but also many hours in bad weather.
