THE JACKSON HERALD, JEFFERSON, GEORGIA
IN MEMORY OF OUR MOTHER,
MRS. R. W. SAMPLES
On Tuesday night, October 12,
1937, God took our darling mother
to Heaven, and took the sunshine
out of our home; for she was the
pride and joy of our hearts. She
was so sweet and kind to us all.
She was always a devoted wife and
mother.
But God seemed to need her more
than we did. Her sudden death
left our hearts sad and broken; for
she was so joyful just a while be
fore she died. But we must carry
on for the sake of the loved ones
here on earth.
God has called you home to
Heaven, Mother Dear; for to Him
you were so true; and we miss you
every where, at work, and most at
family prayer. You were the fair
est in our home. The home is so
sad, Mother .Dear, since your foot
steps are heard no more; but the
sadest thing of all is your pictures
on the wall, for they want speak at
all. We have made your mound on
a hill side near our home, Mother
Dear, but on judgment day that
mound shall burst and to Him w r e all
must trust, and cast our troubles at
His feet, Mother Dear.
Her two broken-hearted daughters,
Essie and Annie.

REAL SERVICE TO TAXPAYERS
Reductions in their tax levy for
the year have been reported by 12
Georgia counties, while two coun
ties, Lumpkin and Wheeler, have
for the second consecutive year
found it possible to conduct their
public affairs without any county
levy at all.
Four counties list tax reduction
among the achievements on which
they present their claims for partic
ipation in the $7,500 county awnrds
offered by The Constitution for
those counties which show the great
est advance in public service to their
citizens during the year.
Regardless of the ultimate out
come of the awards program, when
the final judgments are made, there
can be no denial that reduction or
elimination of taxes is an important
contribution to the well-being of the
public. At this time, with federal,
state and other taxes generally in
creasing, nny reduction in local
levies is a direct service to the tax
payer.
The measure of service by any
governmental unit is, after all, the
value given for each dollar expend
ed. The county, or other govern
mental unit, which can render good
service for the least money has gone
a long way up the path toward the
ideal.
Total elimination of taxes is not
possible in the majority of counties.
Nor would it be advisable. So long
as the people expect service from
their duly elected public servants,
so long must the people pay for that
service.
But the ideal medium is found in
that community where the authori
ties levy the smallest possible tax
consistent with the performance of
desirable governmental function?
and where every dollar spent brings
100 cents in service value to the tax
payers.
Tax reduction weighs heavily in
the scales in the record of service
performed by any goverment. This
has always been true and is partic
ularly so in this time of broadening
governmental service.—Atlanta Con
stitution.

SAFETY FIRST
The bum walked into the bank
and up to the receiving teller’s win
dow.
“How long is this bank in exist
ence?” he asked.
“One hundred and fifty years,” re
plied the teller politely. “It’s one
of the oldest banks in the coun
try.”
“I see,” mused the tramp. “And
is it under the supervision of the
State Government banking laws?”
“Absolutely,” returned the teller.
“Good,” murmured the tramp.
“What are your assets and liabili
ties?”
“Our assets,” said the teller
promptly, “are $191,784,265.02.
Our liabilities are $91,784,265.01.
That leaves us a surplus of SIOO,-
000,000.01.”
“And who,” persisted the bum,
“is the president of the bank.”
“Gradwell Quincy Pierpont
Tweek,” said the teller.
The tramp displayed a great deal
of interest.
“You don’t say!” he cried. “I’ve
heard a great deal about him.
Wasn’t his grandfather, Hugo Ent
whistle Clayton Tweek, the founder
of this bank?”
The teller nodded vigorously.
“That’s right, sir,” he stated.
“You’re absolutely correct.”
The bum appeared satisfied. He
dug his hand into his pocket.
“Okay with me, then,” he smiled
at the teller. “You can gimme
change of this half dollar!”. .. ..

A Three Days’ Cough
Is Your Danger Signal
No matter how many medicines you
have tried for your cough, chest cold, or
bronchial irritation, you can get relief
now with Creomulsion. Serious trouble
may be brewing and you cannot afford
to take a chance with any remedy less
potent than Creomulsion, which goes
right to the seat of the trouble and aids
nature to soothe and heal the inflamed
mucous membranes and to loosen and
expel the germ-laden phlegm.
Even if other remedies have failed,
don’t be discouraged, try Creomulsion.
Your druggist is authorized to refund
your money if you are not thoroughly
satisfied with the benefits obtained
from the very first bottle. Creomulsion is
one word—not two, and it has no hyphen
in it. Ask for it plainly, see that the
name on the bottle is Creomulsion, and
you’ll get the genuine product and the
relief you want. (Adv.)
