and Mrs. Esther Bennington, home
demonstration for the Southern Sier-
ras. will be in charge, demonstrat-
ing ice refrigeration and electric
cooking.
Unusual from tht standpoint Of
comparison, Miss Abbey, through
her extensive experience gained in
directing cooking schools for ma
tional manufacturers, concentrates
upon the very vital factor of bring
ing to the housewife pertinent in
formation and knowledge that will
assist in eliminating much of the
drudgery of everyday tasks in the
kitchen in the routine performance
of preparing meals for the family.

FOURTH ANNUAL
BALL GIVEN BY
TRAFFIC SQUAD

No doubt, if any ever existed. as
to the wonderful hospitality of the
local traffic officers remains in the
minds of the some 1000 valley resi-
dents who attended the fourth an
nual speed cops" ball held Satur-
day night in the Veterans Memoir
ial hall.
Symbol of the traffic officers in
the form of a white motorcycle
stood at the entrance to the hall
which was decorated both in the
state colors of blue and gold and
the national colors of red, white and
blue. Capt. Frank OsWalt and his
staff in their uniforms received
their guests.
Austin's orchestra supplied the
music for dancing, playing many
new arrangements of popular num-
berS. Punch was served during the
evening and two groups Of enter
tainment numbers were enthusiaS-
ttcally received by the audience
The A. B. w. tap dancers and the
adagio dancers were presented in
eXcellently executed numbers.
The large attendance at the ball
assures a substantial contribution to
the state fund for the widows ano
orphans of officers killed while or
duty.

are usually the most eXp\ sive ones,
yet the home maker who is vitality
interested in the food costs also
wishes to reduce the amount of time
spent in the kitchen, because there
are so many other demands upon
her time.
Women who are so overcome
with the drudgery of the two or
three meals day. Miss Abbey
states, have never glimpsed the
real satisfaction of cooking. BY this
I do not mean that cooking should
be the foremost inter6\ of the
hCme-maker
In order to be a successful wife
and mother, her interests must be
well balanced" Miss Abbey contin-
ued. Il do mean, however, that
cooking should not absorb the time
and energy that it does in the aver
age home. 1t is the uncertainty OF
whether OF not the right kind Of
meals are being planned; whether
the recipes will be successful, and
the question of something different
that absorbs SO much nervous ener-
gy that there is neither time nor
patience left for the actual accom-
pliShment of the work.

FINE VESPER
MUSICALE AT
HOTEL SUNDAY

One of the most enjoyable of the
vesper musicaleS sponsored by the
Women S University club took place
Sunday afternoon in the Barbara
Worth hotel, when a program of
three groups of music was present.
ed by three different groups OF mu-
Sicians.
Elmer A. Todd of he Academy
of Music who all too seldom appears
in concert, delighted his many
friends and admirers by his piano
solos Sunday. His splendid tech
nique and mastery of the piano
make his playing always enjoyable
and yesterday S concert was greet
ed with enthusiastic applause.
Mr. Todd gave three Chopin
numbers, THE Revolutionary Euda
in c Minor, - the Op. 10. Ne. y,
Funeral March. - Impromptu in
A Flat Op. 28.
The concert was also of special
interest because it marked the first
public appearance of the women S
glee club, Miss Laura Redden di-
recting, Miss Marian BaylesS play
ing the violin obligato and Estelle
Livingston, the piano accompani-
ment.
For a group which has been re-
hearsing but a short time, the club
gave an excellent performance and
Ell Centrans are looking forward to
another concert by these musicians.
The choral effects were excellent
as were the incidental solos by
Gladys Anthony, Mary Baker, Ruth
Yehling, Kathryn Jones, Edith
Eicke and Margaret Linekin Brat
ton. Mrs. Bratton is the poSSessor
of a beautiful soprano voice and
has not been heard in concert for
some time.
The choral group sang an Orien-
tai song and two Easter choruses in
Guiding THE Legend (Tschai-
kowsky).
Another delightful feature of the
program was the group presented
by that charming trio, 1.-The Three
of U.s. Miss Mary Baker, Mis-
Laura Redden and Miss Edith Eicke
who sang ''None but the Lonely
Heart CTschaikowsky), MY Jo-
ham, CGrieg), and "Slumber
Song" (Gretchaninof)

TOOK PILLS FOR
YEARS Then CEREAL
BROUGHT RELIEF
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN Corrected
His Constipation

If you are troubled by common
constipation, read this letter:
"Just word in appreciation of
what your ALL-BRAN has done for
my health. For years, l had been
doping myself with pills and other
dopes for constipation.
81 decided to try Kellogg's ALL
BRAN. Now l am in good health,
and haven't taken a drop of medi-
cine for six months" - Thos. F.
Little, 564 E. Wheeling ST., Lam
caster, Ohio.
Headaches, loss of appetite and
energy, sleeplessness - any one of
these may be caused by common
constipation. Yet this condition can
be corrected, usually, by eating
delicious cereal.
Tests show Kellogg's ALL-BRAN
provides bulk" and vitamin B to
help promote regularity. ALL-BRAN
also furnishes iron for the blood.
The "bulk" in ALL-BRAN is much
like that in leafy vegetables. How
much safer than patent medicines
Two tablespoonful of ALL-BRAN
daily are usually sufficient. Chronic
cases, with each meal.
If seriously i'll, see your doctor.
ALL-BRAN makes no claim to be a
"cure-all."
Serve as a cereal or use IN cook
ing. At all grocers in the red-and-
green package. Get ALL-BRAN, and
not a part-bran product. Made by
Kellogg in Battle Greek.

governor had in mind, he later
made clear.
Relief and charity is the func-
ton Of the church." Talmadge con-
tinued. when the government goes
to tending all the charity and re-
lief, there's nothing left for people
to do but dress up, go to church
and sing out of songbooks. Take
charity and relief away from the
churches and you take from them
the entire bedrock Of religion" the
governor declared vehemently.
An inkling of the miserable wages
workers are paid in the South was
suggested by Gov. Talmadge when
he asserted that there is a danger
that some folks on relief are get
ting more than folks on jobs"
Gov. Talmadge's speech at the
Advertising Club was lacking in de-
tails on how his militia dubbed
and shot textile workers during the
recent nationwide textile strike, and
how he imprisoned hundreds of
strikers in concentration camps in
an effort to prevent picketing.
1 therefore thought it advisable
to seek a special interview with
Georgia's Chief Executive. The
luncheonso being over, 1 presented
myself to the governor who sug-
gested I meet him in his rooms at
the Commodore in a half hour.
Upon my arrival there I found half
a dozen aide-de-camps, including
Hugh Howell, of his staff. These
gentry remained in the room dur
ing the entire interview, and some
of the questions put to the governor
brought CLASSY stares into their eyes,
which would undoubtedly have sig
nified a slightly greater risk for the
questioner if the interview took
place in Atlanta.
The governor, a middle aged,
slightly built, sandy-haired man
who wears tortoise-shelled glasses
and chews on an unlit cigar, gave
the appearance Of being sunk in
meditation when the questions about
Negroes, strikes and chain gangs
started popping after the innocent,
preliminary ones about the gov
ernor's chances for reelection next
Tuesday had been disposed of.
Discussing his prospects for cleo
ton, Gov, Talmadge informed me
that in the recent primaries he had
carried 156 counties out of 159 in
the state. AS a result he is now
the candidate of both the Demo-
cratic and Republican parties.
1--WE heard that Negroes are
sometimes not permitted to vote in
Georgia and other states in the
South" suggested.
well, I don't know about other
states in the South, but I will tell
you that in Georgia we don't have
any trouble at election time" the
governor said.
"Are all Negroes permitted to
vote?" I persisted.
well, sir" he replied cordially,
