COL. PEAVY ADMIT LEO 10 LAW
PRACTICE.
The many friends of Col J. B.
Peavy will be pleased to learn toat
he has successfully passed the
StaUBti Examination and has
been admitted t<> the practice of
law in Georg.a He has formed a
partnership with his brolher-in
-law, Col, A L Hardy, and will
be located in Hamilton.
Since coming to Harris County,
Mr. Peavy’s career has been re¬
markable in many "-espeets. With¬
out co lege training, he volunteer¬
ed to enter the training camp at
Ft M< Pi'trson at the beginning of
the late War, where lie won a Com
nwssson as Second Lieutenant" He
went from there to France, where
he was twice wounded, gassed
once; was recommended for a Cap¬
taincy more than once ; was recom¬
mended for a Majority by his
superior officers; won the Distin¬
guished Set t ic- Cross for valor and
aeqiuitted himselt with distinction
as a soldier from this County.
Mi Peavy has spent not more
than six months reading law in
the office of t ol. Hardy ; and it is
considered remarkable that he
stood the examination for the Bar
aftergoing through the experiences
of War, which, to say the least,
were cu cuiaied to drive out the
memory of law and every other
study save that of the stern thought
of duty as a soldier. He stood the
examination belore Judge G. H.
H ward in Columbus.
I he publishers congratulate Mr.
Peavy on his unbroken successes j
since coming to Harris County,and
we bespeak for him rapid and con-1
tinued success in his new field of
endeavor. He will Continue to
make friends and we prophesy that
he will yet he heard from in a
larger and more promouneed
career.

NUMBER 3 t
A vast amount of work now remains to be done which the

Work more —
r~ I
Produce more —
Save more —
But we can’t continue increasing our
production unless we continue increasing
our railroad facilities.
The farms, mines And factories cannot
increase their output beyond the capacity
of the railroads to haul their products.
Railroads are now near the peak of their
carrying capacity.
Without railroad expansion—more en¬
gines, more cars, more tracks, more ter¬
minals—there can be little increase in
production.
I3ut this country of ours is going to
keep right on growing—and the railroads
must grow with it.
To command in the investment markets
the flow of new capital to expand railroad
facilities—and so increase production —
there must be public confidence in the
future earning power of railroads.
The nation’s business can grow only as
fast as the railroads grow.

A Large Line of BeautyAids
Every woman wants to be as attractive
as possible. And it’s perfectly right that she
should be.
Actresses are more envied and admired,
perhaps, than any other class of women.
Yet they are not always the most beautiful.
They attribute their charms in a measure to
the regular use of good creams, lotions, etc.
Werhave a line of the latest and most effect¬
ive beauty aids, perfumes, etc, to please the
ynost exacting.
