FASHIONS
The quaker who said every one is
a little crazy but me and thee must
have been thinking of fashions.
Wonder why it is that when the
fashion makers tell us that two
piece flannel ensembles and felt hats
are the smartest thing for this
blistering June weather every one of
us hankers for a felt hat and flan
nel dress. But there is one ensemble
that we heartily approve and that is
| the new bathing ensembles. They
are characterized with gaiety and
! chic—but the style feature is an en
ve l°P' n £ cape.

The Macon News Contest
I am trying to get enough sub¬
scriptions to the Macon News—the
paper that always has helped Fort
Valley and Peach county—to win the
first prize—a Cadillac Coach. Some
one from Fort Valley—the best town
in the territory of the News—ought
to go over the top—and I will great¬
ly appreciate my friends helping me
get more subscriptions than any one
else in Georgia.

Sanitary Conditions In —
Thomaston!
The Thomaston Times calls a spade
a spade. We know our readers will
be interested in the following edito
rial from that paper:
“Sanitary Conditions in Thomaston
are not what they ought to be. Some
one in authority is not doing his duty,
we are not prepared to say who it
is. But the town should be cleaned
up and kept cleaner than it is now.
The health of the people of Thomas
ton is too valuable to be menaced by
some conditions that now exist and
the tax payers of the city should
rise up and demand better protec
tion from their authorities in this
respect. There are too many breed
. big places for flies and mosquitoes
and there are places which if not a
menace to health are certainly not
pl ea sant to the smell and sight,
Probably a Board of Health would
S(dve the problem. At any rate we
need more and better protection than
we now receive and something ought
to be done about it right away.”
