THOMPSON) The “Wog’s” come home, so look out hoys. In Ooneral Wilson’s history of Jackson county we find a story in the day when the Indians roamed these hills and hollows, of a ferocious forked tongued animal of dog shape, over sized and which had a home on the headwaters of Barbers Creek at a place known as Nodoroc. This place is on the John L. Harris farm. This place was hailed as the Indian hill, and the Wog was the devil as he was seen to enter and leave this place of torment to man. beast and bird, who chanced to enter its confines. The person who has studied this wonderful animal, varmint or demon will remember tills Whatever-it-is lias been appearing at different times and places from the North Oconee river to the Chattahoochee. Some time in the past we heard of him bobbing up near Atlanta, then near Lawrenceville. In 1882 or 83 he troubled the waters and wilds of Curry creek near Jeffer son. Along in the 80s he troubled the peo pie on the foothills of Pea Ridge, kill Ing dogs, pigs and chickens. In one of the Wog’s tours he stopped at a darkey’s house which stood in that spot, where now stands the home of Mr. Bradbury on National Highway. Now,, in passing, if you look on the lower side between Bradbury’s and Hammond’s barn there is a flat patch sinl in this patch were some small call in stables and other out-buildings. Here uncle Lee Hinton (now an aged darkey) built a trap, baited it with choice steak. The steak was stolen but the Wog was too wise a guy to be eaugiht napping. One peculiarity i,n nil his trails, is that dogs slink away, drop their tails and could not be pre vailed upon to chase the Wog Men, women and ehillron went into their houses before dark and closed and barred the doors. You could just say “Wog” to many a lttle fretful urchin and there were no more screams or unheeoming conduct, from him for quite awhile. Some who saw this what-is-it said it. looked like a dog. big as a mule of a brownish color Some said it was more like a kangaroo and could junfp like a rabbit. All were pretty well agreed as to its color. Uncle Lee Hinton saw it, under his house when it killed his dog. He said it had large fierce eyes and was lar ger than any dog he ever saw. This what-is-it was so large that there was much scraping of its back as it crawl ed out from under this two-foot floor to earth. Is the devil coming to his own? This what-is-it may have migrated and is now returning to possess his own. He was probably the original inhabitant of the (To-rula-bole) Barber creek swamps, while he strolled leisurely from Mulberry to Appalachee acroas Cedar creek and Marbury Creek. Now, don’t discredit the stories of the late rambles of the wog, lest you fleeing from the screams or depreda tions of the animal. Just wait and listen as all things come to him who waits.

More Cars Shake Themselves to Pieces Than Ever Wear Out Charge that up to vibration. Vibration causes cars to grow old prematurely by racking their chassis, destroying the “metal life” of vital parts, loosening up their bodies and causing squeaks and rattles. Frequent, costly repairs are the result. The Studebaker Light-Six is freer from vibration than any car of its ap proximate size or weight yet produced. This has been accomplished largely by a complete machining of the crank shaft and connecting rods on all sur faces—a practice used by Studebaker exclusively on cars at this price and found only on a very few other cars whose selling prices are from three to ten times as high as the Light-Six. There are 61 precision operations in the manufacture of the crankshaft alone, 40 of which range in accuracy Power to satisfy the most exacting owner MODELS AND PRICES—/, o. b. factories light-six special-six big-six 5-Pass., 113' W. 8.,40 HP. 5-Past., 119’ W. 8.,50 11.
