The St. Cecilia Music Club held
its regular monthly meeting Wed
nesday afternoon, Feb. 18. We
opened the meeting by singing our
Club Song and then repeating our
loyalty pledge. The secretary read
the minutes of the last meeting.
Each member answered the roll
call by answering a question which
was drawn at random.
We then discussed our business
and heard the treasurer's report.

Succeeding M. B. Smith
Promotion of S. C. Roney to po
sition of superintendent of the Ma
con division of the Central of Geor
gia Railway, effective March 1, has
just been announced. Mr. Rooney
succeeds M. B. Smith, who had
been superintendent of the division
for the past 23 years, and whose
retirement is due to reaching the
age limit of 70 in February. Both
Mr. Smith and Mr. Rooney are well
known locally, having been fre
quently visitors to this city during
recent years in connection with
their work. (
The new superintendent of this
division of the Central is a pro
duct of the ranks and has had •
varied experience, which admirab
ly fits him for his new posittaa.
He started in about 40 years aga-
as a track laborer, and was later
section foreman, brakeman, con
ductor, fireman, locomotive en
gineer, agent, captain of railroad
police, road foreman of engines,
trainmaster and assistant superin
tendent. ,
Two of the Central's three super
intendents retire March 1, to be
succeeded by a younger men. Be
sides Mr. Smith, Claude Baldwin
superintendent of the Columbus di
vision since Dec. 15, 1938, retires.
Mr. Baldw in issucceeded bcW. E.

Chattanoog District, who has been,

ment to the trainmaster's position
about three years ago.

During the social period Kathryn
Amos and Frances Watson served
delicious refreshments. The social

present.
A recital by the music pupils is
being prepared for Tuesday eve
ning, March 17. Patrons and
friends remember this date. The
program of the student's recital
will appear in the next issue of
the Herald.
Miss Ruth Dunwody will be
greatly missed by all the music
pupils. She has accepted a position
near Reidsville. She attended our
club meetings regularly and al
ways gave many interesting cur
rent events.
Mr. Blackwell suggests that bal
ing wire be removed either by un
tying ’he knot‘with pliers, or by
cutting the wire as close to the
knot as possible so that it may be
used over again. Short ties may be
used a^in by making shorter,
lighter weight bales, or they may
be spliced to full length. Baling
wire hung over a fence or piled in
a heap outside the machine shed,
may rust and become unfit for re
use. Rusting can be preevnted by
wiping each tie with oil, and stor
ing in a dry place.
There is still another reason why
livestock farmers will want to use
care in opening baled hay. When
the wire is broken or cut, short
pieces n ay fall into the hay and
be swallowed by the livestock.
Veterinarians say that many fine
cattle, and other livestock as well,
are killed every year by pieces of
baling wire that pierce vital inter
nal organs.

BIG SUGAR SUPPLY
TO DEFENSE AGENCY
New York, Feb. 26—At the war
production board's request, the Co
ca-Cola company has sold about
45,000 tons of refined granulated
sugar to Defense Supplies Corp., a
federal agency.
The agency will distribute the
sugar along the north-eastern sea
board. The company in its an
nouncement yesterday said the
price was below the present level.
Earlier this year the Pepsi-Cola
Co., sold 40,000 tons of raw sugar
to the same federal agency.
SHORT AND KIMMEL
TO FACE TRIAL BY
GOVT. COURT MARTIAL
Buena Vista, Ga., Feb. 28—It is
is quite evident from the number
stills and the amount of mash and
liquor destroyed and the number
of arrests made since the beginning
of the year, by Sheriff R. E. Dillard
that he is on the alert for the con
servation of sugar.
Quoting the sheriff's words, he
states “he will spare no energy and
efforts in keeping Marion county's
quota of sugar intact, to between
the pies for the women and to
make sugar-teats for the babies.”
Political honesty might be a
good policy. But it seems that
some individuals are ignorant of
that fact.

DRUNK TAKES HIS
FAITHFUL POLECAT
INTO JAIL CELL
Thomaston, Ga., Feb. 28—Police
here arrested a drunk Friday night
but the soused one's pet cat almost
saved him from a trip to jail.
Officers Joiner and Boyt sighted
the happy wanderer reeling down

found that the cat belonged to the
notorious “pole” family. They
backed away for a conference.
“If you take me you gotta take
my cat," mumbled the drunk.
So down to the police station
went the man and his pet. The
drunk was booked and took the
skunk into a cell with him.
The drunk was fined $5.75 Sat
urday. The polecat was freed wi.h
the court's compliments.
