Will Make Fair Crop
—,— I
What, at one time, seemed dis
aster has now “turned the tables,”
unless another disaster does happen
right away,—and the people in the
stretch between Air Line and Gold
mine, Hart county, who suffered
thousands of dollars loss by the hail
and wind recently, will make a cred
itable crop of cotton.
The drouth that evidently dam
aged other cotton in the county came
in right for the hail district, and the
recent rains did not damage their
crop, and with some warm sunshine
for a few weeks they will show some
results of what Hart county farm
ers can do when faced with a hard
problem.
Much of the cotton was not up un
til after the first of July, it was said.

THE HARTWELL SUN, HARTWELL, GA., OCTOBER 10, 1924
Kiwanians Welcome
New Baptist Pastor
Vice President J. A. W. Brown,
District Trustee R. E. Matheson and
Mr. R. E. Cox, of the Hartwell Ki
wanis Club, will represent this body
at the annual meeting of Georgia Ki
wanians in Rome on October 20, 21,
22, and will very likely be accom
panied by a large number of other
members to the Floyd capital.
Rome, needless to say, is making
great preparations for the visiting
Kiwanians, and features of enter
tainment include a visit to Shorter
College, Martha Berry school, the
Coosa Country Club and numerous
other places of interest in that sec
tion. The official delegates and many
others will likely drive their cars
through.
Among, the distinguished visitors
Friday was Hon. J. R. Slater, pres
ident of the Douglas Kiwanis Club,
who made a short and very interest
ing address.
The club unanimously gave Messrs.
Foster C. Brown and Howard H.
Page, of this city, a vote of appre
ciation for their work in putting out
several hundred signs advertising
Hartwell in the Carolinas and Vir
ginia. Mr. Fred P. Linder told of
some of the results already noted
from this work.
President J. H. Skelton and the
club were delighted to hear that Ki
wanian Dr. W. L. Murrow will re
main in Hartwell. He is one of the
club’s most aggressive members, be
ing chairman of the attendance com
mittee.
A warm welcome was accorded
Rev. W. A. Dunean as a new mem
ber. He comes from the Eastman
Kiwanis Club, one of the oldest in
the State. Rev. Duncan will be an
addition to the club in many ways.
His response was exceedingly inter
esting and helpful.
Miss Mildred Johnson presided at
the piano during the session.
WILL ORGANIZE DAVIS-
BRYAN CLUBS IN HART
Chairman W. I. Hailey, of the Hart
County Democratic Executive Com
mittee, has asked the members in the
various districts to appoint commit
tees of five ladies to solicit funds for
the Democratic party, and also asks
that each District organize Davis-,
Bryan Clubs.
Hart county Democrats should re
spond to the call of Chairman Hai

Parrot Long Esteemed
Aristotle spoke of parrots as did a
writer who lived a century before him,
the hitter describing a bird that could
imitate sound and speak the Indian or
the Greek language, making it over two
thousand years that this member of
the feathered tribe has been known to
talk. Even If parrots had not been
able to speak they would have at
tracted attention because of their bril
liant plumage. They used to be fa
i vorite pets in Rome, where the great
■ ladles kept them in cages of tortoise
' shell and silver wire. As the Romans
i of those days appreciated beautiful
fowls more thoroughly when served at
table (such as roast peacock garnished
with their own feathers), so dlfl they
esteem the narrot as a choice delicacy.

CITIZENS JOIN COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS IN EF
FORT FOR GOOD ROADS
■ The Hart County Commissioners
greatly appreciate the expression of
satisfaction that came to them last
Monday from the good people of Bic
and Bethesda community for the
splendid road work that had been
done for them. The continued rains
during September greatly retarded
the road work and caused much dam
age to the roadbed in places as well
as considerabe damage to bridges.
The extra road crew together with
voluntary work by many of the cit
izens in the county are getting all the
roads now in good passable condition.
The thing most needed is coopera
tion amongst all the people to get the
best roads. The commissioners state
that in many communities the people
are giving them splendid assistance
by voluntarily dragging the roads
when there is a proper season in the
ground. This is a great service,
‘doesn’t take much time and saves the'
county much money in road working.
Let the good work go on!

HOW DOCTORS TREAT
COLDS AND THE FLU
To break up a cold over night or to cut
short an attack of grippe, influenza or sore
throat, physicians and druggists are now
recommending Calotabs, the nausealess
Calomel tablet, that is purified from dan
gerous and sickening effects. Those who
have tried it say that it acts like magic, by
far more effective and certain than the old
style calomel, heretofore recommended by
physicians.
One or two Calotabs at bed time with
a swallow of water, —that’s all. No salts,
no nausea nor the slightest interference
with eating, work or pleasures. Next morn
ing your cold has vanished and your sys
tem feels refreshed and purified. Calotabs
are sold only in original sealed packages,
price ten cents for the vest-pocket size; •
thirty-five cents for the large family pack
age. Recommended and guaranteed by
druggists. Your money back if you are not
delighted.— adv.
