“COUNTRY CUT-UPS”
IS SUCCESSFUL PLAY
Under the auspices of the Blakely
P. T. A., a two act health comedy,
•‘The Country Cut-Ups,” was staged
at the school auditorium by the
school children last Friday night.
The play, which has the merit of
novelty, was written and directed
by Dr. M. A. Fort, Director Divis
ion Malaria Control, Georgia State
Board of Healih, and the underlying
motive for its presentation was to
put over a message that would not
otherwise have reached the people,
as to the causes and effects of ma
laria, hookworm disease, adenoids,
and all preventable diseases.
Besides being instructive. there
was not a dull or tedious moment
during the whole program ami the
play afforded much merriment and
laughter for the audience.
During the intermission Dr. Fort
gave us a dear, vigorous statement
of malarial conditions m Blakely
and tbrougho.it th county, also
much valuable advice as to how
the menace may be overcome and
health preserved.
All pupils participating in the
production displayed wonderful his
trionic ability and it needs no stretch
ing of the imagination to realize that
the “Country Cut-Ups” made a hit,
besides bringing into the. treasury
of the P. T. A. a net profit of $43.05,
which will lie used in health work.

GA. YAMS EXPECTED
TO SELL HIGH SOON
Prices for kiln dried Georgia yams
will run as high as $4 or more per
100 pounds before the middle of De
cember, it was forecast in the cur
rent issue of the market bulletin of
the State Bureau of Markets. Let- j
tors from produce merchants, whole-!
salers and jobbers as far distant as j
Texas were the basis for the price ;
estimate.
The sweet potato crop is short
more than 18.000,000 bushels iu the
United States this year and 4,000,000 I
bushels under 1923 in Georgia, giving
very sound basis for the forecast of
high prices, according to market
bureau officials.
The prices iu Georgia markets at
present are substantially less than
$2 for sweet potatoes, running from
$1.25 in Columbus to SI.BO in Au
gusta. The price should begin to
improve within the next week, it
was indicated by market bureau ex
perts.

WRITES FLORIDA
, WOMAN.
; Faced with the loss of her teeth,
I after 10 years’ suffering, Mrs. M. .1.
a Travis, an esteemed resident of
e Jacksonville, declares she finally
b saved her teeth by a simple home
treatment; “worth its weight in
i gold.” Using her own words: “After
, having pyorrhea for 10 years my
0 mouth is now healed. Before I found
out differently, I was told there was
3 no relief and had yielded to the
J loss of six fine solid teeth. Then I
3 discovered Moore’s pyorrhea treat
-1 ment. Three days after starting its
1 use, the soreness left my gums; my
r teeth began to tighten. Now my
1 teeth are clean, my breath sweet,
t and my mouth completely healed.”
The experience of Mrs. Travis is
' duplicated in hundreds of other
1 cases. If you have pyorrhea or
threatened with pyorrhea your teeth
' are in danger. Quick and effective
3 treatment is necessary. You can
’ test, without money risk, the treat
p ment used by Mrs. Travis. Simply
L write the Mooreliam Co., 1033 Gate
-3 way Station, Kansas City, Mo. Under
f their guarantee of refund send two
dollars. Or, pay postman the $2 with
a few cents postage. Use the ti'eat
ment 7 days. Then if you are not
