DIR. KEISTER A
REAL BOOSTER
Writes Back To Old
Home OF Georgia S
Glories

DIR. B. C. Keister, who moved to
Americas from Roanoke, Va, not so
many months ago, has developed into
one of the biggest boosters Georgia
has ever had. So great a booster is
he that he writes back to his old home
about wonders that Georgia possesses
and some that she does not possess.
However, his statements of the CLIO
ries and greatness of Georgia are out
of a loyal heart and intended to be
facts. For instance, he tells the Roa-
noke World News that an adjoining
county to Sumter shipped more than
10000 cars of peaches this season.
which is more than the entire state
shipped. And he mentions maxi
mum temperature of "a degrees
while other sections swelter, where
as it has been frequently published
that a temperature of 101 degrees
has been recorded at least three times
this year-which, however, has been
an unusually hot summer, as it has
been elsewhere. But the doctor has
just got some of his figures confused,
and he was only trying to tell his old.
home town friends that he was living
in land of real paradise. Here is
his letter to the World News, with
few sentences referring purely to
Virginia affairs deleted:
| am somewhat surprised to
learn that the hot wave has run the
temperature up so high in Roanoke,
when in Americas we have not had a
temperature of over 80 degrees ex-
cept one or two days when it ran
up to 81.
"This immediate section of the

fected, since it is in the very heart
Of the cotton belt, and that being
the main source for money, the peo-
pie have been forced to mortgage
their farms until prices go up on
cotton. Notwithstanding this depres-
sion, the farmers are making good
along other lines, such as the great
peach crop, watermelons, canta-
loupes, Georgia cane syrup, etc, etc.
We have a number of farmers who
have shipped to the northern markets
from fifty to one hundred car loads
of fine peaches, and the same may
be said about watermelons and canta-
loupes.
sit is quite interesting to visit the
packing houses at the peach groves
around this city, where from one hun
bred to three hundred hands are en-
gagged in packing, sorting and ship

been shipped to the northern markets
in last few weeks. We pay so cents
a bushel for peaches at the packing
house, but when shipped in crates
the farmer gets from two to three
dollars crate delivered at the rail-
road station.
We pay from ten to twenty cents
for watermelons weighing from Is to
40 pounds. How does this sound to
you thirsty and hungry Roanokers?

ception of the scarcity of money, due
to low price of cotton and the after

Media has wintered around New

able. He hasn't been started this

two Grand Circuit stakes. Grey
worthy is a good horse, but is some

Two other horses that may cause
Periscope trouble are Ante Guy and

For A REAL CLEANUP.

I.veYr effort should be made by the citizens
TO take full advantage of Cleanup Week.
which has been proclaimed by Mayor Wilson
for the week of April 20 to 80. This affords
the householder an opportunity to get rid of
accumulated rubbish that the garbage men re-
yuse to take. 1t ought to make Perth Amboy a
better and healthier place to live in.
Particular attention ought to be paid to vacant
lots this year. Perth Amboy is being so closely
built up that the vacant lots here and there
stand out conspicuously. To have these lots used
as a. common dump, as is the case in many in
stances, is particularly Objectionable. One lot
thus neglected creates an eye-sore to a whole
community.
Now that the street commissioner has started
a campaign to have all sidewalks paved and put
In first class condition the desirability of having
the city cleaned up generally is all the more
pr pressing. If we have any civic pride at all we
will all join heartily In the "Clean-Up Week"
campaign and come as near making Perth AM
boy a spotless town as is possible.
1t is significant that as the "Clean-Up Week
proclaimed by Mayor Wilson expires on April
so, the following day the new dry law goes
into effect when Chief Tonnesen promises to
take a hand in a different kind of cleanup
After one week of physical cleanup and an
other of cleanup morally. the city ought to be
a decidedly better place to live in.

FURNISHING ADEQUATE sCHooL ROOM.

1t is interesting TO notice how conditions dlf-
fer in different cities in faoing the same prob
lens. Take the matter Of building new school
houses: the war put every municipality behind
in this regard and building costs have been so
high that in nearly every place there is a serious
shortage of room for educating the children.
A few days ago the EVENING NEWS COM
mented on the fact that while Perth Amboy
did not seem able to finance a building program
of one new school and addition to the high
school, Jersey City was going ahead with a plan
to erect seven new school buildings involving
an expenditure of about $4,000 900, of which
$3.50, 900 will go for sites. Here in Perth Amboy
the Board of Education is urging the erection of
the new buildings needed, but the Board of AL
dermen do not see their way clear TO raise the
necessary funds.
In Trenton, on the other hand, where there is
also great need of new school buildings, the city
commissioners have shown a willingness to CO.
operate. but the Board Of Education, who must
move first, procrastinate and delay. The Tren-
ton Times, in urging that something be done,
cites the action in Jersey City, just as the EVE
MING NEWS did a few days ago, remarking
that il a debt-ridden municipality like Jersey
city can finance 5000 900 worth of public
schools, Trenton need not hesitate to attack its
problem.
And we might add that Perth Amboy need
not hesitate, either. If there is one thing that
the city has endeavored to keep abreast with
the times in it Is its public school system
Parents do not want their children sitting for
hours at a time in cellar rooms that were never
intended for classes. 1t Is bad enough to crowd
them into the regular class rooms without re-
sorting to such make-shifts as have now become
necessary, and conditions will be still worse
when the fall term opens next September.
The matter of educating the coming genera
ton is one thing that no city can afford to ig-

Q. Should oysters be eaten which
have been frozen and then thawed

A. The Bureau of Fisheries says
that oysters deteriorate rapidly
when thawed out after having been
frozen, so they should be eaten i'm

them it is not safc to use them for
food.

@. Where was the Golden Mile
stone?-R. E. J.
A. The Golden Milestone or Mil
iarum Aureum, was set up by Au-
gustus about 80 B. G.. 1t was not a
milestone. but an itinerary placed
toward the west end of the Roman
Forum close to the broad steps
which led up to the Temple of Sat
urn. On 1t were engraved the dis
tances from the city gates to the
main stations and cities on the great
roads leading out OF Rome. Por-
lions of this column are still in ex-
istence.
Q. After brick buildings are built
sometimes a white substance ap-
pears on the brick which spells the
appearance of the building. What
is 1t and can 1t be removed NV. y.
A. The Geological Survey states
that the phenomenon to which you
refer is known as efflorescence and
is a very common condition caused
by soluble salts in the clay. After
the bricks are In the wall the
moisture dissolves the salt, brings
it to the surface and after the wa
ter Is ev~aporated, the salt Is left on
the face OF the brick. 1t can be
washed off with water, but will
probably reappear until ell of the
salt is washed out of the brick.
