How To Detect
High Blood Pressure
NORMA

Thousands of men and women are
on the road to serious high blood
pressure and will not know it until
face to face with one of it's dangerous
effects. 1t is known high blood pres
sure causes Brights disease, Apoplexy
and often sudden death.
II you experience dizziness, short
ness of breath, head pains flushed
face, nervousness. sleepessness or
chronic fatigue take these as nature,a
warnings and don't fail to begin check
ing them at once.
High blood pressure is CAUSED NV
poisonous waste matter ACCOMMODATING in
the system the weakening of one
or more organs. This forces the
heart to double the work and raises
blood pressure.
The quickest acting simplest home
treatment for reducing high pressure
is with purely vegetable medicine
like Norma. the successful prescription
of a famous Buffalo physician.
Norma contains no harmful or ha hit
forming drugs and it's effect is imme-
diate. 1t drives out poisonous waste
matter lessons the burden of the over
taxed heart and swiftly and safely re-
duces blood pressure. Get a bottle of
Norma today and free yourself from
life shortening high blood pressure.

the sun and the earth, causing a
complete eclipse.
Scientists all over the country ana
Europe have erected delicate APP
paratus to study just what effects
this eclipse will have on radio
waves, but it remains for WIP and
FLO to arrange the test that will be
of greatest interest to radio fans.
Station WIP will broadcast music
by Jack Leroy and his orchestra
from Z to $50 a. m, Eastern Stand
ard Time. 2LO at London will be-
gin it's program promptly at $50 and
continue to IL a. m.
The theory SO far has been that
the suns rays hinder the progress
OF the waves emitted from broad
casting stations, SO preventing long
distance work. The path of the
eclipse extends from Philadelphia,
where totality will be $3.50, directly
over the path to London.
Radio engineers at both stations,
feel that the eclipse will have enough
effect on the radio waves to allow at
least a part of the program to reach
the other continent.
Ships at sea, between the two sta
tons will be asked to listen-in for
the broadcast, and in event of hear

sage to the station heard, giving
their exact nautical position and the
time at which the signals were
audible. This will give valuable in
formation with which to compute
the effect of the eclipse on radio
transmission.
Not for 80 years will there be an
other opportunity for such a trans
atlantic test, as there will not be an
other total eclipse Of the sun for that
length of time.
WIP and 2LO Will make radio
history with this broadcast. The
data collected will be of aid to
scientists and radio engineers In
perfecting transmission.
Radio fans all over the country
arc asked to tune in. carefully
checking Station WIP's transmits
sion from Philadelphia, and at
tempting to catch the signals from
FLO at London. Should anyone
hear the London signals, and it Is
very probable that they will, they
are asked to please notify Station
WHIP Immediately, as a careful rec
ord will be kept.

.FIREMEN'S RELIEF
ASSN HAS ANNUAL
BANQUET, ELECTION

Members Of the fire department
committee of the Augusta City Gov
eminent We're special guests at the
annual meeting and banquet session
of the F'iremen's Relief Association,
| which was held in the assembly hall
at the Hartford fire station Tuesday
evening. with a total attendance Of
about two score. Mayor Mclean,
who was expected to be one of the
guests and speakers of the evening,
was unable to be present.
The banquet session was at Z
o'clock and preceded the business
meeting Of the association. Oyster
stew. cold boiled ham. potato salad,
pickles. cheese. rolls, doughnuts,
cup cakes. coffee and cigars COM
prised the really sumptuous menu.
which was served by a committee of
the members Of the association. All
present evidently had thoughts Of
the storm raging outside in mind,
and in their efforts to fortify them
selves against the time when they
would have to go forth to battle
against the elements, did full justice
to the good things set before them.
After the cigars had been lighted.
President Frank Chadwick of the
Firemen's Relief Association called
fire department committee of the
City Government, who spoke briefly
on the relations between the de-
partment and the city government.
Alderman Stackpole and Councilmen
Creamer and Shaw of the committee
also made brief remarks, and all paid
splendid tribute to the Augusta fire
department and it's notable record Of
public service.
Chief Engineer Roy X. Small first
addressed his words to his associates
of the department, expressing his APP
probation of their splendid spirit Of
good fellowship. their willingness and
loyalty at all times and under all
and initiative, which enabled the de-
partment to function effectively with
out it being necessary for the chief
to supervise every detail Of battle
with rampant flames.
Speaking particularly to the four
members Of the city government COM
mittee present, Chief Small called
attention to the immediate need of
spare truck. and a piece Of needed
equipment to be used to pick up the
wet lines of hose after fire.
He showed how under the present
arrangement it Is necessary for the
flrCmen to stand around for long
times. often with drenched and froz-
en- clothing. waiting for hired truck
to arrive to be loaded with the wet
hose. This he pointed out was not
conducive to good spirits and eff
cheney.
At the business meeting Of the as
ISOLATION which followed the BAN
quet and post prandials, Frank
Chadwick was again elected president
for the ensuing year: Otis Sherman
was named vice president; Fred
Burke, secretary; Ernest Keene.
treasurer; and Charles Hunt. Fred

FEAST SIDE ASSOCIATION" ANNUAL
WHIST TUESDAYS SOME HISTORY

1.-THE East Side Association" held
it's annual whist and sewing party
in the Aldermen's rooms at the City
building Tuesday afternoon-The sue
cess Of the affair is proof Of the in
terest and good will Of the many who
participated. The organization ex-
presses its sincere thanks to the
many orders and individuals who
have so generously contributed In so
many ways toward the work this
society aims to do.
1.-THE Association" was organized in
1914 by Rev. Thomas Burgess. the
Episcopal minister then in charge Of
st. Barnabas Mission. located on
Bangor street. He felt there was
much work for, such an organization
among the women of the East Side"
and that not only would the needy be
helped, but that the women them
selves would gain from becoming
better acquainted and thus a strong
er community spirit result. This or
ganization is, purely non-sectarian.
All women living on the East side Of
the river are eligible to membership.
During all these years the mayors
