I’m Falling
Thus cri*d the hair. And a
kind neighbor came to the res
cue whh a bottle of Ayer’s
Hair Vigor. The hair was
saved! This was because
Ayet’s Hair Vigor is a regular
hair medicine. Falling hair is
caused by a germ, and this
medicine completely destroys
these germs. Then the healthy
scalp gives rich, healthy hair.

THE KtPl.ES ENTERTAINED.
Tile Cedartown RlfleH were hand
somely entertained last Friday even
ing at the Armory at a big barbecue
given by Capt. W. H. Trawlck, the
popular head of that Bplendtd organi
zation. Mr. J. T. Garrard was the
barbecue artist, and the stew and
meats were as fine as ever tickled
the palate of an epicure.
It Is a matter of great gratification
to our people that the Cedartown Rif
les, who are Just winding up the third
year of their enlistment, will continue
lh the service for another three years.
Most of the young men have re-en-
llstod, and quite a number of others
have Joined, giving the company Its
full quota required by the national
guard regulations.
After the 'cue Friday evonlng the
Rifles gave an excellent drill. They
came out of the recent rigid lnspec
tlon by the army officers with fly
ing colors, and were favored with
special complimentary mention in the
official report.
But that is Just like Cedartown.you
know! With the best volunteer fire
department and the best military com
pany in the state, Cedartown can cer
tainly lie proud of her young men.

Driving Club Scores a Good Record—
I’ajrs All Expen cs and Delivers
AII Premiums,
The Fair management, has made
good on every promise, and the 11)07
Hhow has scored a dist.net success.
Although the Driving Club had lese
than a month to pull off the fair, the
success of the enterprise demonstrates
the possibility of a musing county
fair In which hundreds of our farm
ers would actively co-operate with
Cedartown's business men and com
pete spiritedly for the varlouB pre
miums offered for farm product*.
The total Income from every
source—gate and grand stand receipts,
concessions by our business men In
caBh anil merchandise.—foots up $1,-
583.10.
A good showing for a two-day per
formance!
The business men responded nobly
to the enterprise, donating $375 to
the fair In cash and merchandise,with
out which the fair would not have
been a financial success.
The receipts have been applied to
the necessary expenses—gate keepers,
policemen, watchmen, repairs on the
buildings and the rare track, print
ing and postage, premiums and
other incidental expenses. Everybody
has received their money or articles
either for hlro or on premiums, and
universal satisfaction Is heard on all
sides as a result of the prompt way
payments of premiums have been
made by the club management.
for any reason, anyone has been
overlookd, the management desires
such person to report promptly at the
office of the secretary, Mr. F. B.
Knight.
