IN MEMORY OF MISS ALICE
HOLLIDAY
Misa Alice Holliday passed away
Sunday night, November the seven
teenth, in Athens, Ga., at the home
of her sister, Mrs. M. T. Toney, 245
Buena Vista Ave.
She was admitted to the Athens
General Hospital on September the
seventeenth for an appendix oper
ation. A few days later it became
necessary for another operation, and
later a blood transfusion was given,
at which time some hope was held for
her recovery, and at her request she
was moved to the home of her sister,
and for several days the family held
great hopes for her recovery until
just a few hours before the end
came. At which time was a great
shock to the family and friends.
Miss Holliday was born and rear
ed in the Lebanon community, Jack
son county. She was the daughter
of the late Mr. and Mrs. John M.
Holliday, pioneer citizens of Jack
son county.
She and her sister, Miss Ruth Hol
liday, resided at the Holliday home
place, in the Lebanon community,
which is one of our county’s most
beautiful estates. Friends always
looked forward to a visit in this
lovely home, where hospitality was
always so graciously extended.
Her many friends deeply sym
pathize with the family in the loss
of a dear loved one.
Funeral services were held on
Monday afternoon, November the
eighteenth, at three-thirty o’clock,
from the Lebanon Methodist church,
where she had been a member for a
number of years, with Rev. Harry
Lee Smith, the pastor, conducting
the services, and interment was in
the church yard cemetery.
The huge collection of beautiful
flowers attested the popularity of
this lovely friend. Mrs. Hubert
Martin at the organ, accompanied by
the choir, rendered three very ap
propriate selections.
The pallbearers were Messrs. B. L.
Adams, A. H. Brackett, Hoyt Huff,
Cody David, Emmett Logan and
Clarence Fuller.
Survivors are Miss Ruth Holliday,
Mr. G. W. C. Holliday, Mr. C. D.
Holliday, of Jackson County; Mrs. H.
W. Guest of Monroe, Mrs. M. T.
Toney and Mr. Key Holliday of
Athens. Also, two aunts, Mrs. W.
C. Wills of Jefferson, Miss Anna
Fulcher of Jackson county . Also,
several uncles and nieces.
Her life was like a half blown rose,
Closed ere the shades of even;
Her death the dawn, the blushing
hour,
That opes the gates to heaven.
She’s crossed the troubled river
That lies twixt us and heaven;
To her a robe of whiteness,
A golden crown is given.
She’s gone to worlds above,
Where saints and angels meet,
To realize our Saviour’s love,
And worship at His feet.
A Friend.

Four brake-rods [3] of strong,

your foot on the pedal with the four
big brake-drums on the wheels.
They do this positively, surely,
under all road conditions. Note
especially that no one Ford brake

Failure of one—practically Impos

WHAT HAPPENED WHEN TWO
ARTICLES IN A NEWSPAPER
OFFICE WERE MIXED
The editor of the country news
paper, after receiving a column of
type from a linotype operator con
taining an account of a marriage and
an auction sale, dropped the galley
containing the typed material. The
lines were assembled hurriedly and
this was the result of the editorial
effort to give an account of a neigh
borhood wedding:
“Mr. John Eaton and Miss Mary
Thompson were united in marriage
at public auction, on the premises,
on last Friday at high noon, in the
presence of two yearling heifers and
13 year-old steers.
“The bride wore a beautiful gown
of two tons of unbaled timothy hay
and several hundred bundles of fod
der, trimmed with two spring-tooth
harrows and one riding cultivator.
She carried a bouquet of beautiful
sausage grinder, stuffers and cook
ing utensils.
“The groom has been a life long
resident of Bentonville, being gen
eral manager of two dozen Berk
shire pigs and about 100 Leghorn
hens. The bridesmaids were: 1 Oliver
chilled plow, a 6-hoe drill and two
shares of telephone stock. The
b:st man was a cider press, wheat
fan and two barrels of cider vine
gar.
“Miss Emily Johnson, a friend of
the bride, softly played “O Promise
Me” on one New Idea fertilizer
spreader, a corn-sheller and two
copper kettles and stands. The color
scheme of lavender and yellow was
carried out, the room being decor
ated with a 1929 Ford sedan, one
double-barreled shotgun, and 14
Jersey heifers eligible to registra
tion.
“After a luncheon and reception
the happy couple left for a trip of
two months’ time, with 2 per cent
off for cash, and upon their return
will be at home with 2 sets of al
most new work harness, 2 sets of
fly straps, and one slightly used baby
carriage. The officiating minister
was Charlie Hilbert, auctioneer.”

OLD-TIME REMEDIES
The story of the fellow who went
all the way to Alaska in search of
gold and then returned homo to find
a rich vein in his own garden is a
familiar one to most citizens. But
in a way, the same thing happens
around here almost daily. People
with an ailment seek out a big-town
specialist only to overlook a positive
cure closer to hand.
Now comes a neighboring paper
telling how a lady of that place, af
ter spending a lot of money for
treatment of a rash on her hands
discovered it was only old-fashioned
tetter —and cured it to stay cured
with a dime’s worth of mutton tal
low. No matter what progress
science has made in recent years,
these old-time remedies are still de
pendable. Physicians who are hon
est with you will tell you that many
ordinary ailments may be cured with
common baking soda, or a little
table salt.
Don’t despise old-time home reme
dies, and don’t make the mistake of
under-estimating their efficacy. They
may not prove effective in every
case—but neither are the doctors.
Most home-remedies and home doc
tors are worth trying when the oc
casion demands, and quite often
they will prove their worth when
high-priced specialists are powerless
to produce relief.—Covington News.
An election in the city of Alapaha
produced the unusual the other day,
when two ladies were among the
three successful candidates for city
council. The winners were Mrs. O.
A. Hughes, Mrs. Barrineau and L. J.
Gay. Among the unsuccessful can
didates was W. B. Barrineau, hus
band of the new Alapaha council
woman.

Georgia Dog Finds Rattlesnake Dens
Greensboro, Ga.—During the past
several months, T. L. Callahan, of
Greene County, has reported dozens
of rattlesnakes killed on his lands,
and folks wondered how he found so
many.
The secret is out. One of Mr.
Callahan’s tenants has trained a
dog as a snake hunter, and it is said
that the canine unerringly hunts out
the snake dens and then carries his
owner to them.

Preparations
OEFORE you take any prepara
tion you don’t know all about,
for the relief of headaches; or the
pains of rheumatism, neuritis or
neuralgia, ask your doctor what he
thinks about it —in comparison
with Genuine Bayer Aspirin.
We say this because, before the
discovery of Bayer Aspirin, most
so-called “pain” remedies were ad
vised against by physicians as being
bad for the stomach; or, often, for
the heart. And the discovery of
Bayer Aspirin largely changed
medical practice.
Countless thousands of people
who have taken Bayer Aspirin year
in and out without ill effect, have
proved that the medical findings
about its safety were correct.
Remember this: Genuine Bayer
Aspirin is rated among the fastest
methods get discovered for the relief
of headaches and all common pains
. . . and safe for the average person
to take regularly.
You can get real Bayer Aspirin at
any drug store simply by never
asking for it by the name “aspirin”
alone, but always saying BAYER
ASPIRIN when you buy.
