WHO’S YOUR CHOICE FOR PRESIDENT?
’ Collier’s is conducting a nation wide, face to face,
straw ballot for nomination for president of the Unit
ed States. The result summarized in last week’s is
sue of that periodical follows:
“With 164,514 ballots counted, In Collier’s
facc-to-face straw vote, Henry Ford receives 54,-.
257, while President Harding, his nearest com
petitor, receives onfy 32,924. Together they
have considerably more than half the total vote.
Otherwise the line-up is practically unchanged,
Mr. McAdoo being followed closely by Mr. Cox
among the strictly democratic aspirants, with
“Al” Smith a good third, while Johnson, Hughes
aftd Hoover string along a respectful distance be
hind the president.
"Ohio and Pennsylvania seem to furnish the
sensation of the week. Mr. Harding musters
only 3,163 votes in his own state against 4,950
for Ford, while rock-ribbed republican Penn
sylvania returns a, 4 to 3 plurality for the most
non-partisan and utterly nonpolitical candidate
who ever made Up American politics.”
An interesting sidelight on the situation is shown
by the vote in Georgia and other southern states,
as the following figues show:

Whether these figures
mean anything or not is a
question that is now puzzling the politicians of both
‘the major parties. Our guess is that they do not
mean anything, save advertising and publicity for
Henry Ford, and apparently he does not need that.
At any rate this stunt of Collier’s is helping to arouse
interest in the next election, and you just as well be
gin to ask yourself, “Who’s your choice for presi
dent?”
GOOD OLD SUMMER
What is the best season of the year? Summer, to
most people—though the other seasons, especially
spring, have their charms. And the older you get,
the more you will like summer, the more you will
dread winter.
For summer, with its luxurious growth is symbolic
of life at its best..
, Spring corresponds to our babyhood. It is the
sprouting season, full of hope, dreams, uncertainty,
danger of frost '
Autumn is like the waning years of life, when we
harvest as we have sown, when we suffer for our
negligence and mistakes and arc rewarded for our
effort Most of us, when we look backward in the
autumn of life, say: "If I only had my life to live
over again. .
Winter, of course, corresponds to human death,
the hibernating of old growth until new growth is
ready to spout and bud.
All threo of these sessions arc preparatory to, or the
aftermath of summer. And Bummer is the period of
LIFE—of accomplishment—symbolic of the lives we
arc living. Lucky are you who have survived the
frosts of life’s springtime. Your crop of success is
started. Toil and weed, for autumn of life will be
upon you before you arc aware. For results, it’s now
or never.
SHOULD BE! SUPPORTED
The Banncr-IIcrald pointed out some time ago the
combination of the county and city health board
would not only bring about greater health protection
for both, but save money.
The Bannor-Hcrald’s position in this matter has'
been sustained by no less a personage than Dr. J. C.
McKinney, chairman of the Athens Board of Health
who not oiily favors uniting the two hoards but has
drawn up a plan for doing so and will call a special
meeting of ail concerned.this week to ' discuss tho
project
Without, going into the details of Dr. McKinney’s
plan it js pointed out that the city will save $1260 an-
' nually and the county $300, in addition to giving
both better health protection than is now possible.
Not only that, the Sanitary department will be sepa
rate and the chief of that department can devote
all instead of part of his time to that work thereby
giving the city better service by that corps. All this •
can be done without reducing the salary of any of .
tho officers, Dr. McKinney states.
The county commissioners, countyi health board,
' city health board and city council meet in special
joint session this week to consider Dr. McKinney’s
plan in order to advertise a bill, if it is approved, and
have it introduced and passed at this session of the
legislature. : T ,
It is hoped the McKinney plan will be adopted as
it is a very sane program for the protection of the wel
fare of Clarke county and Athens citizens and has
been thoroughly studied out Macon and Bibb coun
ty are taking this step. There is every reason why
we should do the same.
Sheriff Merritt Dixon, of Sa
vannah, is receiving the com
mendation of tho New York
preee in controlling the mob

preventing a lynching which nr
doubt would have occurred in an*
other aection of the country, bul
for the determined stand taken by

It Is true one life was lost in the
melee, yet the sheriff demonstrated
to the crowd that ho meAnt busi

free the Jail of the prisoner, othei
lives would pay the toil of the
violence of the mob. Tho sheriff
did his full duty 'and he deserve*
the praise of alt law Abiding dtl

bravery and determination will
have tC good moral effect on th
whole country and aid Jn a great

DJU SIGNALS
The Disease That Strikes

Beware of Indigestion—the dis-
enso that kills more people and kills
thorn quicker than any other. Thla
warning, by physicians, is particu
larly applicable this -season of the
year, when your system “let*
down” in tons and vigor with tbs
first approach of warm weather.
What are *tbe warnings that na
ture gives you of tho approach of
Indigestion? Tho medical books
toll us: 1, Gas, which means that
your food is fermenting Instead of
digesting. 2. A fooling of fullness
or oppression In the region of the
stomach after eating. Thla means
that the gas has ballooned youf
stomach and is pressing
against your heart and lungs.
A dull, lazy feeling, whloh means
that you are not getting nourish
ment from what you aro eating.
4. Restlessness, un-refreshing
sloops which means that the poisons
of lndlgoetln are disturbing your
brain and nerves. B Sometimes,
pain and fluttering around the
hoart, though this symptom may
corn© later.
Don't take chances with Indiges
tion—you are too apt to lose. If
you havo had any of the symptoms
mentioned above, get your digestive

gestion "perfect and complete."

Appropriation ^Increase
T WO partners were debaling their advertising policy—plan
ning the campaigns for the next six months.
. Theirs is a retail store which spent in one year, $12,000
omits advertising which was 5% of their yearly volume, a fair
expenditure in their line of business.
In growth of sales they could easily point out the homecoming
of the $12,000 with a fair and reasonable, profit in its train. For
these two partners that expenditure was’a profitable short-term
investment. *,
One of the partners spoke up:
!‘John,” he said, “we have a cadh profit in the bank from that
$12,000, but we have a greater intangible profit by far—it is
piled up for ug’in the minds of every man and woman in the city.
“It is reflected in the attitude of our bankers. r v
“It is present in the minds of the manufacturers who sell us.
“It is working on the minds and purses of every one of our
customesr.”
“Why,” he continued, "this business, because of the advertising
we have done, is worth $12,000 more’ than it was before we
began.” .
The two partners increased their appropriation, modestly, it
is true. That was five years ago. • Today, for it is in a ldrge city,
their appropriation is eight times their original amount. Their
standing, with bankers, manufacturers and-customers is A-l-
Their business has grown and grown in a healthy way. And still
as one of them put it—
“In the last five years advertising has made money for us.
Every cent we’ve spent has come back to us, and brought an
other with it But, our real profit—our big profit from that
advertising is banked in the minds of the people. Ours is the
best known business of its kind in town. Ahd that is worth a lot
of money to us.”
