BROWN HARTWELL’S - LARGEST - CASH - STORE "S Celebrate 4th Here With Good Program On the 4th of July, 1925, a very impressive and interesting program ■was rendered under the auspices of the Brenau Club. It was interesting because of the occasion which prompted it. Impres sive because of the time, place, man ner and cause for which it was given. The 4th of July being the day held sacred by every citizen of America, remembering the freedom that was given this great and favored land of ours .on that day. Again <on account of the place, be ing at the fork of Howell and Ath ens streets, in the city of Hartwell, under the shade of the large Spanish oak, around which a platform had been built, also decorated with Amer ican flags and Brenau banners, ac cording to army regulations. This majestic oak lifts its head towards heaven with thankfulness for its pro tection from the fate of the axe in the hands of cruel man and spreads its arms to kiss the earth and give Sfo the weary traveler a resting place. Again the serious and reverent manner in which the prograrrt was rendered. The occasion being the dedication of this tree to the World War soldiers, who went across and offered their lives that America might hold the freedom given her by our forefathers, that the women and children might be protected from the ravages of a nation that was seeking gain. May our tongues cleave to the roofs of our mouths afid our right arms refuse to act when we cease to honor these men. In the absence of the president, the meeting was presided over in a very gracious and dignified manner by Miss Naomi Herndon. The program called for several musical numbers which were fur nished by the Hartwell Band. 1. Opening number was the sing ing of America in chorus by all pres ent. 2. Invocation by Rev. W. A. Dun can. 3. "American Independence” by Rev. James Bradley. 4. Mrs. Ben C. Alford, "A Tri bute to Trees,” impressed all who were present with a greater desire to protect them in the future. 5. Judges Hodges, after reading the deed which was made to the tree itself (this being the third tree deed ed to itself in Georgia) made a splendid address, the main thought being the protection of trees. He presented the deed to the Vice Pres ident, Miss Quillie Norman, with the Brenau Club officers and their suc cessors, trustees. 6. Miss Naomi Herndon in a beautiful manner, tenderly and rev erently dedicated the tree to the memory of our soldiers. 7. This was responded to in a few words of deep appreciation by Com mander of the American Legion, Dr. M. M. Parks. 8. Pleasing number by the Hart well Band. The Brenau Club takes this occa sion to thank the Hartwell Band and each and every one who took part in the program. We want to es pecially thank Judge Hodges who honored us by intrusting to our care one of the beauties of God's handi work. May we never betray that trust. O ; Due to hygienic conditions and the trades taught in Sing Sing prison, prisoners are showing a disinclination to escape. The superintendent of industries at the penitentiary has suggested a reduction in the number •of guards and an increase in the sumber of instructors. MT.

"A dog,” he says, “should never be purchased, should never be made the subject of barter and dickering. A dog may be rescued from abuse, he may be found and kept, and, in cases of real neces sity, he may be stolen in a dignified manner; but he should never be bought. I have heard of men that make a livelihood from the purchase and sale of dogfi. I cannot conceive of them as good husbands and kind fathers, but they seem to me inhu man monsters engaged in a sinister traffic.” Tiger Talk, Etc. The mating call of a tiger, the mournful, whining "ah-woongh,” re peated five or six times in succession at intervals is really a very loud "miaow,” and when mating, tiger, or tigress, will roam the jungles for miles, miaowing all through the night, and sometimes till as late as noonday. But when a tiger is angry at being disturbed, especially a tigress with cubs, it gives a low, humming, mur muring growl, very cat-like, and fol lowed by a long-drawn "haa-eeh.” A tiger will often give Its “ah-woongti,” and a leopard Its sawing roar, when on their way to their kills. Words! Words! Some very beautiful choral music we heard recently reminded us of a little speech Sir Henry Wood once made to Sheffield choristers. “Now for your greatest fault 1” he exclaimed. “Words: Words are your master. When you go and hear a bad comic opera and you listen with rapt atten tion to the principal comedian, what attracts you? You are able without effort to hear every word he sings. You forget that he has no voice. Now think when you are singing choruses at the next festival what a delight it will be to the public If they hear every word you sing!” ss'5 s ' ‘’• • » • • ♦ • MT.

BLUE EYES. o Even a still explosion is likely to cause some noise.—Pittsburgh Ga zette Times. o American population increased practically 2,000,000 in 1923. In the latter half of the year, we grew 1,122,000. Immigration contributed 505,000 and the excess of births over deaths 617,000. Without the immigration factor the United States is increasing to the extent of about 1,234,000 a year. Anderson Man Says Thermostatic Con trol Is Great Thing THOMAS H. HARVEY Consulting Accountant Anderson, S. C., June 22, 1925. A. C. Blancke & Co., Chicago, 111. Gentlemen:—Just a word of ap preciation for your Thermostatic Carburetor Control. I had one in stalled on ray car, by Wellborn’s Garage here in Anderson, S. C., about a month ago and have been getting very good mileage. I like it so well and have talked it so enthusiastically ’till I have sold the garage out of all they had. Mr. Wellborn stated that you had no agent here in Anderson, or if you did that you were not satisfied as he is not pushing them. I travel all over the state and go as far as Georgia and North Carolina and I believe that I can sell them for you satisfactorily. I have orders for a few already and can get more if I am sure there is anything in it for me. Yesterday I drove my Ford coupe 115 miles to the mountains and back on TWO gallons of gas. However, I also had a Stransky vaporizer, but even at that it is the best mileage that has been delivered around this part of the country. Folks are wait ing to be asked to buy and I have recommended and sold in the neigh borhood of ~ dozen for Mr. Well born. Please let me know immediately, as I know I can sell a half dozen in a day without leaving Anderson. Your Thermostatic adds the mileage. Sincerely yours, (Signed) THOMAS H. HARVEY.

JULY FLY. o Mystery Attached to Lost Cities of World There Is always fascination at tached to stories of lost and aban doned cities. The East has many such places, once teeming with life —now the abiding place of lions, monkeys, snakes and jackals. For Instance, the holy city of the Buddhists, Baraboe door, in Java, had been forgotten for 300 years when Sir Stamford Raffles rediscovered it and its wonderful tem- £ pie, the eighth wonder of the world. The jungle of Siam has hidden Its an cient capital, Ayuthla, for four cen turies. Us Inhabitants fled before the conquering Burmese, and never re turned. It is now said to be the lurk ing place of thousands of enormous snakes. Mystery surrounds the dead city of Tibet, which Captain Rawling discovered. It is a vast collection of palaces, monasteries, and dwelling houses, but the Tibetans prpfessed ig norance of its existence, and also of the reason for Its abandonment. Five centuries ago Angkor had a popula tion of three-quarters of a million. To day It is the Dead City of Cambodia. The carved stone elephants, the im mense causeways, the majestic tem ples still remain, but the jungle has Invaded the streets and squares. Plant That Changes Its Location at Will To those who have made Lt a study, plant life teems with wonders. Take, for example, the Loranthus, a species of mistletoe. If this plant finds itself in a situation unfavorable to Its growth, it will throw out a root by which it Is enabled to move to another site, the means of locomotion being a flattened disc that acts as a sort of foot. The moving process is repeated until a sat isfactory position for development has been found.’ Another plant, the Clusla, lodges its seeds in the branches of a tree, whence the roots grow downward and strike in the soil. From these suspended roots branches grow on all sides, until the tree by which they are supported be cornea literally suffocated. These and other queer happenings In plant life are related in "The New Book of Gardening.” After all, maybe the luckiest wild flower was the one that was born to blush unseen.—Detroit News. Theatrical people are peculiar. They work when they play and play when they work.
