therefore an eminently qualified
judge THE race track and the en-
tire grounds are the most picturesque
that / have ever seen After all, the
breathing space and the beauty Of
the grounds are the essential things
when crowds that attend fairs are
considered. The permanence Of the
plant here is another great feature"
Tie 1923 Fair will have increased

the beauty of the park will be en-
HANGED. The number of graded and

mobiles provided, which will shorten
the distance between the city and

the whole grounds with modernly
equipped gates. All these improve
ments are we'll under way and will be
completed before the opening of the
fair in October.
And do not forget" says Mr.. Oscar
Mills, who has been president Of the
fair for three years, while the Dia.
mond Jubilee, Atlanta's seventy-fifth
anniversary will be celebrated in
grand style at the fair this fall, 1t is
the fair of all of Georgia, of all Of
the Southeast. and Of every individual
who cultivates the land, who raises
pig or COW or chickens, q fair
of the whole people, if you please, and
everybody is invited"
The Southeastern Fair is fortunate
in having in its active directorate
men who are intensely Interested in
the different departmental exhibits.
President Mills is not satisfied If the
hos and cattle show is not bigger AID
better than ever, and Secretary Strip
lin is always looking for new ways to
train and interest the young people,
while Director II, G. Hastings takes
great pride in the excellence and high
standard of the agricultural exhibit.
They all cooperate, however, for one
big thing-suocess.

Building and Factory
Exhibit to Feature

Atlanta, Ga.-An interesting manu-
facturers' exhibits will be one Of the
features of the fair in Atlanta this
fall.
The Southeastern Fair purposes
lust as much to increase the output
and productiveness Of the Georgia fac
tory as 1t does the Georgia farm or
he Georgia hog or cattle ranch.
Although this is accounted as an
agricultural section. each year shows
more spindles and more manufactu-
rles of every sort, and the general
trend OF the factory is southwark.
Georgia is called the Empire State
of the South and it is more nearly in
dependent of the rest of the world
for the necessities and Injuries of
life than any other part Of the globe,
and happy, indeed, are the people
who have such resources and can
bring so close together the raw ma
terials of the forest, farm and mine,
that they will lie at the door of the
factory.
The display of road, bridge and
building materials and construction
methods will be well worth seeing,
much progress being made In these
matters every year.

ACCIDENT MAKES
CAR FINISH AUTO
RACE BACKWARD
Another in Race Somer-
sau1tS Without Serious
Injury to It's Driver.

It would not be anything new to
call auto racing the sport Of Kings,
but really, no king in the olden days
ever imagined anything half so thrill
ing as a modem speedway scene.
Popular interest In high class auto
racing has never waned, and 1t is
only the real high class stuff that is
put on the track at Lakewood Park
during the Southeastern Fairs and the
auto races during the fair this fall,
October to IS, will be no excep-
ton.
The thousands who witnessed the
events on this track on July Fourth
will never forget the thrills crowded
into those minutes when the engines
OF six high-powered cars roared around
the track, counting death at every
turn, and the series of accidents-hap-
PLY, none of them fatal-which put
most Of the cars Dat Of the running,
SO that the winner OF the last race
finished the last eight miles on three
tires and a rim.
One of these accidents furnished an
incident worthy Of reproduction as a
cartoon comedy. A punctured tire
caused a car to leave the track. and
before the driver could regain con-
troll he had crashed through the fence
in front of the grand stand and the
gear became locked in the reverse po-
sition. Sticking to his seat the driver
backed out of the wreckage and across
the line for a finish In fourth place
in the race, the backing car finally
being stopped by collision with the
band stand. This is probably the only
auto race in which car ever finished
running backward.
Another racer took several panels
of fence on the side of the track with
out checking his speed or damaging
his car, while yet another came near
er death when his car ran into the
bank and did a triple somersault, In
full view of the grand stand, but,
luckily, throwing the driver clear OF
the wreck.
The track at Lakewood in the
Southeastern Fair grounds is one Of
the best in the country, and for the
races during the Fair in October some
Of the greatest speedsters of the game
have been entered.

Atlanta, Ga.-Indications point to
larger attendance and exhibits at
the eighth annual Southeastern Fair
In Atlanta, October to 10 this year,
improved conditions in the South are
evidenced by correspondence arriving
from prospective exhibitors and this
condition Is going to be reflected In
the number and quality Of the dis
plays.
Public opinion, 80 often Indifferent
concerning matters OF real import
ance, 10 beginning to give proper rec
ignition to the merits OF this great
fair. The Southeastern Fair Associa-
ton was not organized for profit or
gain to its incorporators, but solely
for constructive and educational pur-
poses. Men have given their time,
their money and their ability to the
development of this institution, and
not one grain OF selfishness has been
behind their activities.
1.-THE true value Of the fair" says
Mr.. r. M. Striplin, the secretary and
one OF its founders, will be measured
by the number of persons who pass
through its gates between October 6
TO IS to receive educational benefits
provided by its various departments.
1.-THE Midway attractions and
ADJUSTMENTS are excellent The thrill
ling displays In front OF the grand
stand are unsurpassed The horse
races and the automobile races will
contribute their part to the entertain
ment Of patrons but one must look
for the fairs lasting results to those
things that make for individual and
community advancement that tend to
educate. The fair is In itself an edu-
cational short term course"

ing the Southeastern Fair with loca-

NEED FOR UNIFORMITY
IN BUSINESS LAWS
How Collection of lust Debts May
Be Prevented by Differing
State Statutes.

An effort to bring about better CO
ordination and greater uniformity
among state laws dealing with bust
ness and banking is being made by
the American Bankers Association.
II is pointed out that, although the
country IL a unit commercially, and
citizens Of any one state may do bust
ness that reaches all over the coun-
try, most laws governing business
transactions are made by the differ
ant states, with application limited
to their own local jurisdictions and
often In conflict with laws in ether
states. 1t 10 held that state laws
should be uniform so that the same
transaction will not be subject to
different sets Of rules according as
state laws differ.
To illustrate the disadvantages OF
conflicting laws, the following Illus
tratiOn 10 given: Mr.. Jones lives in
New York where the statute OF limita-
lions outlaws q Aote In SIX years. He
falls into the error Of assuming that
the same rule prevails everywhere.
He visits Maryland and loans $1,000
to his friend, Mr.. Smith, taking .
promissory note. AS the note carries
interest Mr.. Jones Is In NO hurry foE
his money and he believes Smith to
be financially responsible. Finally at
che and OF four years Jones concludes
he las loaned Smith the money LONG
enough and seeks to collect the note
from hIra. But Smith can deny liabik
ity and point to the statute Of Mary.
land which Jones IS surprised to
learn outlaws q note after three
years.
Changes Recommended
The particular subjects of legisla-
ton recommended by the association
for enactment by State legislatures
during 1898 Include uniform acts on
negotiable instruments, bills Of lad
Ing, warehouse receipts. stock trans.
Ter, and nduciaries.
Under the head OF laws for better
protection OF banks In particular
transactions are proposed measures
dealing with limiting liability on GER
tiled check; instruments based ON
gambling or usurious consideration;
time limit on stop payment; payment
OF stalls check: adverse claim to bank
deposit; payment of forged or raised
check: deposits In two names; de-
posts In trust; competency of bank
and corporation notaries; non-pay-
ment Of check through error; Satur.
day afternoon bank transactions, and
forwarding check direct to payor.
Under the Federal Reserve and
foreign banking are recommended
laws on membership of state fnstitu-
lions In Federal Reserve System, and
foreign banking. Penal laws pro
posed deal with false statements Cor
credit; SANDER ard libel OF bank;
checks or drafts without funds, and
burglary with explosives.

that law, enduring its evil conse'
ouences for fifteen years and then
frankly casting It aside as q failure,
has performed an economic service 70
the nation. These could be no more
convincing argument against the pas
sage OF similar laws In other states
than OkIaaoma's disastrous expert
ment.
The Oklahoma guaranty law was
the first of its kind. It was enacted
In response to the panic Of 1907. But
experience has only proved again that
there Is no substitute for sound bank
Ing. Relying on the fancied security
Of the guaranty law, people entrusted
their banking to many who were an
at for the trust. Bank failures have
been so many that the fund, sup
posed to guarantee deposits, created
by assessments on banks, was long
SgO depleted.
It Is estimated that with total liabil-
tiles created under the law in the
form OF warrants and sums owing to
depositors amounting to $12,OO0,OOO,
there are In the hands Of the Banking
Board uncertain assets Of nOminany
$4,000, 900, ranging in value from
zero to only thirty or forty cents on
the dollar, resulting In a deficit Of
many million dollars. Sound, well-man
aged banks have been heavily taxed
by assessments to the fund, and the
NJ
Sessed on solvent banks is insufficient
to cover the deficit.
1t has been well said that guaranty
laws make for looseness in banking
methods, and saddle on the COM
petent and honest the sins Of the In
competent and dishonest
Let us have only laws that raise
the standard of banking. Let US have
no laws that debase It.

 Water.

When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region it may mean you have been eating foods which create acids, says we'll known authority. An excess of such acids overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get slug gish and clog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels, remov- ing all the body's urinous waste, else you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often get sore, water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night.
 Either consult good, reliable physician at once or get from your pharmacist about four ounces of lad Salts; take tablespoonful in glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, | combined with lithia and has been used for years to help clean and | stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the system, so they no longer irritate. thus often relieving | bladder weakness.
