POULTRY BREEDERS IN
SESSION IN WAYCROSS
Community Hatchery to Be In
stalled and Industry Made
Commercial Proposition

WAYCROSS, Jan. 10. - The
Waycross Poultry Breeders Associa-
ton is holding its first meeting here
today. The meeting is being held at
the Chamber of Commerce rooms in
Waycross.
1t is the purpose of this associa-
ton to increase the number of
purebred chickens and eggs in this
section to the points that the local
markets will be supplied with home
grown products. 1t is also hoped
that more than this will be accomp-
Hshed. In this event chickens and
eggs will be shipped to other mar
kets. A commercial hatchery will
be installed, which will hatch the
eggs and sell the young chickens
or hatch the eggs at so much pc:
hundred. Following the establish
ment of the hatchery a cold storage
plant will be put into operation
which will allow the farmers to ship
dressed chickens.

UNION HIGH
NEWS

LESLIE, Jan. 10.-One Monday
morning, December 81, the faculty
and student body assembled in the
school auditorium to carry out the
regular morning exercises, after a
merry and brief holiday session.
Each face was possessed of a smile,
proving each had a merry Christ
mas. In addition to the assembled
faculty and student body, there
were patrons of the school and quite
a number of bright, smiling faced
girls and boys who have graduated
from Union High in the past few
years.
Prof, ]. NJ. Harvey requested the
eX-graduates to give a few minutes
talk to eager-hearted assemblage,
those who responded made very in
teresting and appropriate talks,
greatly influencing the old school
mates. These few words spoken
were very valuable and encourag-
ing. The majority of the ex-grad-
yates are attending universities
and colleges of the state
Monday morning, January 7, the
beginning of the second week of
school, since the holidays, the stu
dents of the school were present
for resuming their duty Of daily
school work, but were dismissed I'M
til Wednesday morning, the day
the heating apparatus would be in
working condition. The weather
of late has been unusually bad for
scholastic work to be in session.
The fans of the school and sur
rounding community extends to
Emory Cooke, the captain and star
guard of Union Highs formidable
quintet, their sympathy in his i'll
ness, and also extend to him their
warmest regards and best wishes
for quick recovery.
The basketball aggregation is
now without a peer in the sportanic
world. The coach is in communica-
ton with many directors of ath7
letics of other schools, seeing if
there is possibility in arranging
games for the fans and boys in the
near future. The loss of the serv-
ices of Bradley will be keenly felt
in the games to be played.

HOW DOCTORS
TREAT COLDS
AND THE FLU.
First Step in Treatment Is Gallo
tabs the Purified and Refined
Calomel Tablets That Are
Nausealess, Safe and Sure.

Doctors have found bv experience
that no medicine for colds, coughs,
sore throat and Influenza can be de-
pended upon for full effectiveness
until the liver is made thoroughly
active. That is why the first step
| in the treatment is the Eausealess
calomel tablets called Calotabs,
which are free from the sickening
and weakening effects of the old
style calomel. Doctors also point
out the fact that an active liver may
go a long way towards preventing
influenza and colds and is one of
the most important factors in en-
aiding the patient to successfully
withstand an attack and ward off
pneumonia.
One or two Calotabs at bed time,
with a swallow of water-that's all.
No salts, no nausea nor the slight
est interference with your eating,
pleasure or work. Next morning
your cold has vanished, your liver
is active, your system is purified,
and you are feeling fine, with
hearty appetite for breakfast. Gen.
uine Calotabs are sold only in orig
inal sealed packages, price thirty
five cents for the large, family,
package; ten cents for the small,
vest-pocket, size. (adv)

poor goddess became so worn

beautiful clear pool Of water.
Now, Latona was parched with
thirst and as she reached to

fellows rudely interfered and pre-.
vented her from drinking"
How cruel!' whispered Bobby.
And when she begged and
pleaded with them to let her
have a drink they only laughed.

scoffed at her.
