Vessel Construction
Marvel of Ingenuity
An achievement like that of the
■9cean liner which met and survived a
gale In which the waves ran 100 feet
from trough to crest, represents for
the layman an almost incredible tri
utnph of design, says the New’ York
Herald Tribune. The unimaginable
fury of seas which could break over
a bridge 05 feet from the water-line,
which could rip away rails and life
boats, flood the rooms on the upper
decks by coming down upon them from
above, throw a man through a bulk
head and set the whole ship awash,
would seem to be a thing which no
human construction could possibly live
through.
As a matter of fact, every modern
steamship is a miracle, and almost all
of them are successful ones. The loss
of a sound vessel In the open sea Is
of astonishingly rare occurrence, and
memory does not recall any Atlantic
passenger liner which has been de
stroyed in a fair tight with the ocean
ulone. A ship is attacked in two ways.
She must withstand the terrific pound
ing and crushing of the water and of
her own weight, and she must be able
to recover her balance no matter how
long or violent the roll. Vessels have
been rolled under tn storms —some-
times through faulty designs, some
times through the shifting of the cargo
—but it is of rarest occurrence. More
often they founder through the weak
ness of the hull construction —their
seams are opened or their backs
broken. But that seldom happens to
new ships; it seems never to happen
to good ones.
Denmark has decided to introduce
a bill disbanding its army and navy
and providing for a constabulary
only.
The City Garage
is now prepared to do all
kinds of Automobile
work and general black
smithing.

—A LITTLE BIT OF EVERYTHING— I
| * By GEORGE CLARK I
aBBBBWBBEI'IBfIBHBBaBBHBBBBBBBB
I Unable to overcome the 20 point
lead of Gainesville, made in the first
quarter Athens High lost the final
game of the season last Thursday
■ and also its claim for the North
Georgia championship. The game
I was a hard fought affair, the game
resulting in a 20-12 victory for
Gainesville.
For a while after the first kick
off things looked pretty blue for
Gainesville, the Athens team receiv
ing the ball on the 40-yard line and
making their first downs, bringing
the ball to Gainesville’s 16-yard line.
Here Athens was held and on the
first Gainesville play Rothstein, fleet
footed back, ran 84 yards over the
goal line for the first score.
Gainesville kicked to the Athens
20-yard line and in the next play
Athens fumbled and Gainesville re
covered. Then Martin, of Gainesville
made the second touchdown. An
other costly fumble by Athens being
recovered by Gainesville crushed the
hopes of the Athens admirers. Martin
recovered an Athens fumble on the
35-yard line, and in two plays carried
the ball to Athens 25-yard line. On
a fake drop kick Pass passed to San
ders over the goal line, thus ending
Gainesville’s part in the scoring.
During the second period Athens
played a better brand of ball and
Epps shortly after the opening of
the period carried the oval acrose.
The half ended with the score 20-6.
Shortly after the beginning of the
second half Athens made her second
touchdown of the day and ended the
scoring. In the last quarter Athens
High fought stubbornly and for a
time victory seemed within her
reach.
The game was attended by the
largest crowd I have ever seen at a
high school game, a large attendance
of the Gainesville backers being
present.
Even though things looked mighty
blue at times, the rooters for the
Athens team were always cheering
and without reflection on any one j
person, 1 want to say that, when
Hartwell gets to the place she can
have as much spirit and enthusiasm
as was manifested by Athens last
Thursday afternoon, then the Hart-'
well team can and will win more I

games.
Hartwell Glee Club.
Friday night, at 8 o’clock, the Hart
well High Glee Club will present its
first public performance. For five
or six weeks the members of the club
have been hard at work on their pro
gram and indeed should prove a credit
to the Hartwell school. As previously
announced, the program will consist
of three parts. The first will be the
presentation of semi-classical music
by the entire club. In the second act
there will be folk dances.
Then comes the final part of the
program when the male members of
the club will present their minstrel.
This part is highly entertaining and
comical. The four end men “Casey”
Wilcox, “Phil” Griffin, “Panse”
Dendy and “Greece” Leard are sure
to please the audience by their black
face comedy.
Junior Class Organized.
At a meeting of the Junior class a
few days ago the following officers
were elected:
Sara Nan Brown —President.
Olin Leard—Vice-President. .
Paul Heaton—Sec. & Treas.

things in the future.

IT HAS LASTED
Hartwell People Must Believe Such
Convincing Testimony as
Mr. Locke’s.
No one in Hartwell who suffers
backache, headaches, dizziness, rheu
matic pains or distressing urinary ills
can afford to ignore this twice-told
story of a Hartwell resident. It is
confirmed testimony, telling of last
ing benefit from Doan’s Pills—a stim
ulant diuretic to the kidneys. It’s
evidence that no man or woman in
Hartwell can doubt.
W. 11. Locke, Chief of Police,
Howell St., Hartwell, says: “I had
kidney trouble due to an accident
which deranged my kidneys. When I
caught cold it settled in my back. I
tried many kidney remedies but re
ceived better results from Doan’s
Pilis which I procured at Herndon’s
Drug Store than anything else I ever
used.”
The above statement was given
March 1, 1911 and on March 13,
1923, Mr. Locke added: Doan’s Pills
cured me and the cure has lasted."
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Pills—the same that Mr.
Locke had. Foster-Milburn Co.,
