“MISS 0. S, A!!
Boys and girls of Taylor county,
are you saving your nickles and
dimes to buy Thrift stamps on the

over and you have helped the Al

of these stamps as if they were
gold medals. Don’t forget the
date.
I have for sale all varieties of
peas, including the sugar, Crow
der, mixed clay and speckled, and
straight Brabham. Write for pri-

Are you prepared to buy War
ving Stamps on the twenty
hth? If you are not, did you
ow that of the forty-eight
tes in the Union, Georgia has
ught the smallest number of
ar Saving Stamps? Of course
me state must be at the bottom,
ut let’s not have Georgia, the
Empire State of the South, there.
Taylor county made a gallant
showing in the Third Liberty
Loan campaign. Why can she
not do equally as well or better in
the W. S. S. drive of the twenty
eighth? Every man and every
woman should own some War
Saving Stamps and every child, it
matters not how small he is
should be buying Thrift Stamps,
because we can thus save our
earnings, invest our money safely
and, best of all, aid our govern
ment. We should remember the
more money our government has,
the better will our army be
equipped, the shorter will be the
war, and the fewer lives will be
lost. You will lend your money
to a friend in time of emergency,
why not to Uncle Sam, your
(greatest and your best relative?

$1,000 Damage
To New School
Building By Storm
'•A windstorm of considerable
force swept over this section Mon
day afternoon about 4 o’clock, re
sulting in more or less damage to
growing crops, fences, trees and
outhouses. The greatest damage
to crops was to the peach in
dustry. The owner of one of the
largest orchards in this section
stated that his loss would be some
where between five and ten cars
of fruit. Others were probably
damaged equally as much in pro
portion.
The most serious damage with
in the city limits was the unroof
ing of a large portion of the hand
some new school building, erected
last year at a cost of $25,000. The
roof is of metal.
Inside dwelling houses the dark
ness was as dense as any midnight
hour, and considerable uneasiness
for personal safety was exper
ienced by many of the residents.
However, it is not known that any
one suffered injury.
The path of the storm extended
below Mr. J. H. Whatley’s plant
ation and in that section much
damage was done to crops, fenc
ing, small buildings and tops of
chimneys which were taken off.
The damage to Mr. Whatley’s
peach crop was about 50 per, cent.
’eynolds was visited last Mon-
y afternoon by a severe sand
>rm which did more damage
in any storm has done the town
years. The porch was blown
the Whittington home, the
)f of Mr Lonnie Brooks’ house
Is badly damaged and dozens of
es were blown up or broken j
. The greatest damage was |
_-ie to the school building, thej
roof of which is badly injured.!
The town is at this writing entire-1
ly without telephone service.

Benediction by Pastor.
The societies bade the dear hos
tess goodbye and will unite and
meet at the church on Tuesday
[afternoon after the first Sunday in
ach month. Hope it will be pos-
iblei'or each member to attend
hese meetings as we have impor-
:ant subjects for discussion each
ime. MEMBER.
Your Gountry Galls
ou to assemble in your aecus-
orned place of worship on next
Sunday, to study the wisdom and
the necessity for thrift on the part
of every individual, from the
youngest child to the oldest adult.
And in response to the call of the
country your church urges you to
lay aside your desire to visit, or
sleep, and put in your appearance
at the service at YOUR church at
the regular hour next Sunday.
We are enduring some very
warm weather at the present—no
one desires to deny that. And,
you who think it too hot on Sun
days to go to church have been
wishing for just such days as these
hottest, in order that your crops,
cotton especially, would get its
best chance for growth. Now
that your wish has been gratified,
let me ask, is it quite fair to the
Giver of every good gift, for you
to say to Him that you can’t en
dure the very thing that you have
wished for, when the time comes
for you to meet His people in the
place for worship? Think about
that, and you will readily see the
inconsistency of that attitude on
your part.
Sunday School next Sunday
morning at 10 o’clock; preaching
services at 11a. ra. and 9 p. m.
Yours truly,
J. H. ALLEN, Pastor
Reynolds Methodist Church.
Why be uncomfortable during these long hot days
when you can wear one of our Palm Beach Suits at about
one half the price.
We have on hand about two hundred of these suits,
and we intend to give you the benefit of our early buying
at the beginning of the season instead of offering you the
bargains after the season has closed.
To make a long story short, we will sell you a ten
dollar suit for the we'e sum of $5.35 Cash.

Bed Gross Meeting 2l
Garden Valley Sunday Afternoon.
Hons. J. B. Guerry and Jule Felton
Will be Speakers of the Occasion.
It is a source of gratification
that while the progressive and
prosperous citizens of our neigh
bor sections, Deita and Garden
Valley, have from the start mani
fested great interest in the cause
of the Red Cross, and to which
they contributed liberally of their
means, are now devoting their
attention to greater efficency
through organization work, and
with this purpose in view have
set apart next Sunday afternoon
to assemble themselves af the
Garden Valley church to discuss
plans for future operations.
They are pleased to announce
that they have secured as speak
ers for the occasion Hons. J. B.
Guerry and Jule Felton, of Mon-
tezuman. Their reputation for
oratory and knowledge in this
great need, as well as other lines,
is to well known and appreciated
to need comment. Everyone who
possibly [can do so is urged,, to be
present.
