of Kind in Some Time.
Atlanta, Nov. 28.—The Southeastern
| Land show, an idea in so far as this
state is concerned, which was originat
led by Frank T. Reynolds when he
| came to Atlanta representing the Ma

lise at this time of being one of the
biggest ventures in the state in some
| time. The novelly of the affair, how
| ever, isn't going to carry it—nor is
that hoped to carry it. Preparations
lave been gone about in a substantial
and firm-founded way, with the pros
pect of making the . proposition an
annual affair; not held always in the
same locality.
That there is need for some financial
haclking for the etfort is evident. Large
"_\"lhal backing has been looked for
l-'rom Atlanta, though the enterprise
| is one for the beneiit of all Georgia.
and in which even Florida and other
states are participating. This week
the state chamber of commerce is
aiding in—rather is practically con
ducting—an effort to complete the
fund necessary to carry to full fruition
the program arranged for the land
show, which will require probably
£5.600 and to that end voluntarily con
tributions are heing asked of those
people in the state who are interested

iN MEMORY OF ;
MISS ANNIE HAUESLER
l On September 1916 our hearts were
made very sad when we heard ihat
our dear friend, Miss Annie Hauesler,
iad been taken home to Heaven, Bl
we are submissive to God's will. He
iy teo good to do anything wrong and
knowing she had suffered long :mtll
hard took her to Himself where she
will be frce from all pain where sor-|
row is never known. !
Why should her dear ones grieve
when she is so happy? They should
teel that they are bound ieavenward
with one more tie. We kinow they
miss her but they can find her some
future day when God shall call them
to live with Him.
She will be missed much at church ‘
where her seat was never vacant :mnl’
her voice was ever ready and '.\'zlilin:;,
to do its part in the choir.
She was loved by young and nldl
alike, but those of her age will miss]
her more on account of constant (-um-I
munication and association. H(:-rg
zrave does not need a mark for Bay
Spring community to remember her.
FHer life is monument enough in its
communication with us. |
We mourn her loss and miss hur;
much but the tender plant of human
ity not quite grown into wmnunh(m(ll
was needed to make Ileaven richer,
though the ecarth lost cne of its bright
est prospect of a Christian woman. |

People with kidney ills want to be
cured. When one suffers the tortures
of. an aching back, relief is eagerly
sought for. There are many remedies
todav that velieve, but do not eure.
Doan’s Kidney Pills. have hrought last
ing results to thousands. Here is Cor
dele evidence of their merit, -
H. B. Wilson, 506 Seventh St., Cor
dele, says: “I had such severe pains
in the small of my back that I was
unable to do any work for a week at
a time. Often I could hardly get
aronnd at all. The Kkidney secretions
were scanty at times then again too
frequent in passage and highly color
ed. Sometimes I could hardly get up,
owing to the sharp. shooting pains in
my bhack. I was bothered by dizzi
ness too. Two boxes of Doan’s Kid
ney Pilis cured me and I haven't had
any trouble since.”
Price boc, at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remeidy—get

Chevrolet Four-Ninety!
The Lowest Price Electrically Equipped Car
The Chevrolet Control
Imagine a gear shift so sengitive and
smooth that it can be shifted silently, with
the finger tips alone-—even the unusual
shift from third to second—at 40 miles an
hour. I magine a steering gear that responds
to the slightest pressure of your hand—so
jmportant in heavy traflic—so difficult with
the crdinary car. The Chevrolet is the
ideal woman's car.
The Chevrolet Clutch
To the driver of any other car the light
ness and flexibility of the Chevrolet clutch
is astonishing. It is so light that it can be
thrown by a finger pressure—so strong that
it exertis a ton pressure. It means to the
driver absolutely elimination of clutch
throwing fatigue.
Emergency Brake
It stops the car instantly—no matter
what the emergency—no matter what the
speed—with a pull of one finger and with
out a jolt.” You won’t jump a gutter or hit
a tree with your finger cn the Chevrolet
brake. No other car carries this insurance
of absolute safety.

The Chevryiet Springs
Because of their unusual balance and
adjustment, the rider in the (‘hevrolet does
not have to slow 'down for cobbles, tracks,
rceky roads or ruts. No matter how rough
the road the rider will not leave the seat.
The spring movement is undulating—a gen
tle rise and fa!l—without pound or shock.
The Chevrolet is quick, agile, respon
sive. It gives you the realization of per
fect control. It is beautiful in its long, low
lines, and in its comfort. The deep, wide
driver’s seat is so cleverly planned that the
100-pound womar drives as comfortably as
the 200-pcund man, The Chevrolet per
forms steadily and smoothly. It is a truly
quiet car.
Get These Facts
Does your car steer hard? Steer the
Chevrolet. Does your clutch throw hard?
Try the Chevrolet clutch. Does vowg car
ride hard in the back seat? Try the Che
vrolet over the cobbles and the ruts. If
you can’t stop your car instaptly, with a
finger pressure, at full speed, try the Che
vrolet emerggncy.
We leave it to you—for you know the
faults in your car as well as we do. That
is the reason for the Chevrolet—an ease
ment—a freedom from your troubles and
complaints. If you want driving ease and
riding comfort as never before accomplish
ed—you want the Chevrolet.
