CHURCH SOCIETIES
ANNOUNCEMENT

Good Laxative

Black-Draught has been kept on
hand for all the family in the home
of Mr.. w. A. Lemons, of Independ
ence, Va, since twenty years ago. Mr..
Lemons writes that he takes it as
laxative in case of headache, dull,
tired feeling, biliousness."
"And 1 take it if I feel uncomfort-
able after a heavy meal" he adds. Il
especially use it for sick headache.
1t certainly is good"
When man says "Black-Draught
is good" it is probably because he re-
members the prompt, refreshing relief
it brought in constipation troubles.
It's benefits are felt because it is a
simple, herb laxatihe so natural in
composition and action that thousands
and thousands of men and women
prefer it when laxative is needed.

Many of the teachers feel that their
money was spent by the association
in employing a lobbyist who spent
most of his time trying to put over
legislation in which Erwin and his
group of supporters were interested,
instead of in behalf of legislation
that would help the teachers.
If the classroom teachers succeeded
in electing Miss Lafferty president
of the education association this week
as many now think they will, it is re-
ported that the only lobbyists they
will have during the next legislature
will be classroom teachers who will
work for the teachers.

TN MAKING the ratings, which were
supervised by Secretary George l..
Isemann, the congress allowed so per
cent for league games and so for spe-
cial events rolled under championship
conditions. Heretofore league averages
have been valued at so per cent.
Clarke, in contrast to other years in
which he won tournament after tour
nament, came through the entire
1856 season without scoring a
major victory, although he finished
high up in the money in several big
events. His principal achievement was
an average of 127 in the Southern
Intercity League. In which he was
rosed out for the championship by
Meyer Jacobson of Baltimore. But
jacobson, i'll during a large part OF
the season, rolled fewer games than
Clarke in this all-star competition.
The Clarendon Cyclone" was a
hefty gale, indeed. OF the bowlers
who made the Big Ten, or. for that
matter, who placed among the 80
in all ranked by the congress, only
one chalked up more strings than
Clarke. and that was Joe Freschi, who
was placed next to Astor in the
ratings of the Washington City Duck
pin Association. Clarke shot 526
games for an average of 1926 and
Freschi fired STA for 121-80.
