Let The People Pray—
A DREAM
The chimes rang out, and the
sweet melody, “My Faith Looks
Up to Thee” floated out over the
clear morning air. Every radio was
alerted, everyone was on his
knees in humanity, and deep peni
tence for his negligence in not
putting first things first.
Fhe voice of a retired Minister,
loved by every one who knew him,
was heard, “Let the people pray,
- let all the people pray.”
The people prayed. They pray
ed for world peace. They prayed
for forgiveness for their lack of
geal, for their criminal negli
gence.
Othker cities and towns caught
the spirit; men in high places of
influence sponsored organized
plans for universal prayer, the
ministry rose to its sacred respon
sibility; the family altar was re
stored; seats that had been vacant
in the Lord’s House soon were
filled by earnest worshipers.
Soon the daily papers brought
WMeartening tidings from the front.
Tension seemed to subside. Men
everywhere went about their dai
ly tasks with a profcunder faith
fn victorv, and the final triumph
of Right.

Mrs, Laura Norris, 1325 A South
6th Street, St. Louls, Mo., says do
ing the family washing and house
work is no longer a chore, She says
she can do her work in a breeze
now. She thanks wonderful HAD
ACOL for her feeling of well be
ing, She had deficiencies of Vita
mins 81, 82, Niacin, and Iron,
which HADACOL contains.
Here is Mrs. Norris’ exact
statement: “It was such a long
time since I was feeling ‘OK. I
had been very nervous and my
nerves were so bad it affected my
stomach-—seems like it was tied in
a knot all the time. Couldn’t sleep
either—just roll and toss ali night.
I couldn’t hardly do my house
work-—and I was always cross and
irritable. One day I heard about
how other folks were being helped
by HADACOL, I tried HADACOL
and after the 2nd bottle I began
to feel better. Now my nerves are
steady as can be — no more ill
effect on my stomach—ll sleep like
a top—in fact. I feel wonderful,
thanks to marvelous HADACOL.”
Yes, HADACOL Is Marvelous
in the way it has helped thousands
of folks whose systems were de
ficient in Vitamins 81, 82, Iron,
and Niacin. HADACOL can help
you, too, if you have such defi
ciencies if you will just give HAD
ACOL a chance. If you are suffer
ing from nervousness, insomnia, or
a general run-down condition,
caused by such deficiencies, let
HADACOL help you as it has
helped others all over the country.
Many Doctors Recommend
HADACOL
HADACOL is that wonderful
new product recommended by

acting product which gives only
symptomatic relief — HADACOL

the real cause of stomach disturb
ances and a general run-down
nervous condition when caused by
deficiencies of Vitamins 811, 82,
Iron, and Niacin. So if you're
troubled this way, don't keep on
putting off relieving the real
cause of your trouble, Remark
able improvements are often no
ticed within a short &ime.
Get That Worgerful HADACOL
Feeling
The great advantage in taking
HADACOL, is that continued use
of this great product helps pre
vent guch stomach misery and
nervousness from coming back to
torture you. Know what it means
to enjoy that wonderful, wonder
ful HADACOL feeling!
You'll have to admit anyone
suffering such deficiencies is very
foolish and deserves no sympathy
if he or she continues to suffer
, such sleeplessness, nervousness
. and stomach disorder when relief
. may be near at hand at any drug
| store, Go right now to, or tele
‘ phone, your nearest druggist for
{ HADACOL. Start taking it today.
Trial-size bottle costs only $1.25.
"Large family or hospital size,
$3.50, Refuse substitutes. There is
only the one true and genuine
HADACOL which everyone is
talking about.

Georgia Reserves
ATLANTA—Since August 9, a
total of 1,873 Georgia men, en
rolled in the Enlisted Reserve
Corps of the United Statés Army,
have been ordered to report to
Army installations for physical
examinations prior to recall for
active duty. Most of these men
have reported and orders are now
being issued by the Georgia Mili
tary District ordering those select
ed to active duty.
Although every effort is made
to maintain up-to-date records on
members of the Enlisted Reserve
Corps, there have been some cases
where recall orders failed to reach
the respective reservists due to
the fact that they moved and did
not notify military district head
quarters of their new address.
For this reason, orders are again
being sent out, this time by regis
tered mail, to those members of
the enlisted Reserve Corps, who
failed to report in the first call.
Appropriate action against
members of the Enlisted Reserve
Corps, who fail to report for phy
sical examination, will be taken by
military authoritles under perti
nent Army Regulations.
It is imperative that address
changes be reported immediately
to either Headquarters Georgia
Military District, 699 Ponce de
Leon Avenue, N. E, Atlanta, or
the nearest military sub-district
headquarters. They are located in
Rome, Athens, Augusta, Savan
nah, Waycross, Albany, Columbus,
and Macon.
Physical examinations for mem
bers of the Enlisted Reserve Corps
in Georgia are administered at
Headquarters Georgia Military
District, 699 Ponce de Leon Ave.,

FRIENDS OF THE LAND
Columbus 1, Ohio
PROSPERITY FROM THE
GROUND UP
COLUMBUS, Ohio. — “We all
depend upon the farmer, and
what he does to the land that he
farms, for our health and our
prosperity,” said Ollie E. Fink,
program director of Friends of
the Land. “Not only does the
farm produce the food for all of
the people, city and country folks
alike, but the farms also supply a
long list of produce upon which
the prosperity of many of our
cities depend.”
Many of us who belong to
Friends of the Land, Mr. Fink
explained, have been aroused by
the historians who have shown us
that the rise and fall of civiliza
tion was directly associated with
the rise and fall of productivity of
their agriculture.
It was this common interest in
saving our soil to insure adequate
food supplies for ourselves in this
generation and for our children
and their children of future gen
erations as'well as the desire to
increase the standards of living
here in the United States which
led to the formal organization
just ten years ago of the national
society known as Friends of the
Land, the society’s program di
rector explained,
In speaking further about the
Society, Mr. Fink related that
Friends of the Land is a non
profit, non-political society. It is
relatively young. Its 10,000 mem-
bers are widely scattered through
out the United States and have
come from all walks of life—
businessmen, physicians, dentists,
lawyers, educators, farmers and
many others, “A few are rich men,
many are in Who's Who — but
the backbone of the society is that
large group of citizens who really
love and appreciate our soil and
water and want to do their share
in saving our land,” he concluded.

At the last weekly luncheon

er, Morris Bryan, jr. of Jeffer
son,
Mr. Bryan talked on “Social
ism in England” and it was his
opinion that Uncle Sam wants no
part of it.
The speaker said that in this
country where our forefathers
protected our freedom, we should
follow the same line for our chil
dren, as contrasted to England. He
said that England, which had been
a champion of freedom and dem
ocracy, has turned to government
control, planning and directing
every phase of economics. Mr,
Bryan declared that socialism will
bring on dictatorship,
He discussed socialized medi
cine, high taxes and other items
which he said are reducing the
freedonr of the people of England.
In concluding his talk, the Jef

hopes America will not follow the
