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?

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.

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.
