GIRLISH CURES BRING
JOY TO CANDY MAKERS
Chicago, Ill.—Candymakers are
smiling again. They find the get
thin-diet fad is being abandoned.
Curves are coming back and the boy
ish figures going out.
A. M. Kelly, of New York, presi
dent of the National Confectioners’
Association, told about it in his ad
dress at the annual convention in
Chicago last week.
“Four years ago,” Mr. Kelly said,
“the prevalence of extreme dieting
worried the food industries no less
than it alarmed the medical profes
sion. The remedy applied by the
candy industry was a national co
operative campaign of educational
advertising. We fought starvation
diets. Girls are buying and eating |
more candy. The production is huge I
and increasing.
“The radio has helped the indus-|
try. I’ll wager more candy is eat
en by people while listening in than
at any other time of the day. Can- j
dy is standard equipment for the!
young man who takes his sweetie to i
the movies. Our increasing fond- I
ness for outdoor sports has auto-'
matically created an appetite for)
candy. About $2,400,000 a day is!
spent on sweets and at that it is
only 2 cents a day for the popula
tion.”

INCREASE IN LIFE
SPAN OF GEORGIANS
Lengthened 4.3 Years Within Last
Seven Years.
Atlanta, Ga.—The average life
span of Georgians has been lengthen
ed 4.3 years within the last seven
years, adding nearly three billion
dollars to the economic wealth of the
state, Dr. T. F. Abercrombie, state
commissioner of health, said in a
report issued this week.
The report showed the largest gain
was made by white males, who
lengthened their life span from 40
years in 1923 to 54.6 years in 1930,
an increase of 5.6 years or 14 per
cent.
While females showed an increased
life span of from 42.2 years in 1923
to 47.1 years in 1930, a gain of 4.9
years or 11.6 per cent.
Negro males registered an increase
from 36.8 years in 1923 to 39.5 in
1930, while negro females gained
from 35.3 years to 38.4 years in 1930.
The report showed the increased
life span of men in the state to be
greater than that of women. Both
white and negro men increased their
life span from 38.1 years in 1923 to
42.7 years in 1930. Women, both
white and negro, increased from 38.8
to 42.8.
Thirty-nine per cent of the state’s
estimated population is gainfully em
ployed, vital bureau census figures
show, estimating the population of
the state at 3,235,000 the number of
persons gainfully occupied would
reach 1,261,650, the report said.
This number, multiplied by 4.3 by
the added years of the life span,
would give 5,425,095 added years
to the lives of Georgians, Dr. Aber
crombie said.
The average annual income, statis
tics show, is SSOO, multiplied by the
added years of the life span of Geor
gians, the economic wealth of the
state is increased by $2,712,547,500,
Dr. Abercrombie said.
One trouble with most people who
brag about paying as they go is that
they are very slow travelers, says
The Pathfinder. Some of them do
not travel at all, it might be added.

FOR REPRESENTATIVE.
To the Voters of Early county:
I take this method of announcing
myself as a candidate for Represent
ative from Early county in the
Democratic primary of September
10th. I shall appreciate your sup
port and promise in return to look
after the interests of my constit
uents in Early county, not. losing
sight of the duty I owe to my State

wealth. Respectfully yours,
LOWREY STONE.
FOR REPRESENTATIVE.
I hereby announce my candidacy
for re-election to the State Legisla
ture, subject to the Democratic pri
mary in September next. Words are
inadequate to express my apprecia
tion of your former generous sup
port in my last campaign, and if re
elected I pledge you all the ability
and efficiency that I have on all
measures coming- up before the as
sembly. I’m human and conceited
enough to compliment my last work
in the House in putting over the
new fertilizer law, of which I’m
proud. Compliments came to me
from all over the State for my un
tiring efforts on this measure. We
are an agricultural people and their
interests should be looked after care
fully. It is estimated that this new
fertilizer bill passed at the last ses
sion will be a saving to the farmers
of Georgia of over one million dol
lars annually. I feel like the State
has ample service for value received
as their servant, and on account of
my friends urging me to make the
race, I’ve concluded to offer my
services. Respectfully,
JOSEPH FREEMAN.
