GET READY FOR
BUTTERMILK DAY,
JULY 1, SAYS U. S.
I
WASHINGTON, June 23.—July 1 i
is National Buttermilk Day.
Buttermilk, the United States De
partment of Agriculture thinks, is
one of the best drinks in the world
•—nutritious, palatable and full of
zest and vim. The man who drinks
buttermilk regularly and copiously
is doing a good turn for himself. That
is one of the purposes of proclaiming
National Butermilk Day. The other
is that the dairy industry in the Uni
ted States will be discouraged.
Buttermilk day, it is hoped, will
remind many people of this drink,
introduce it t oothers, and be the be
ginning of a greater consumption of
buttermilk that will contribute to
the health and happiness of the con- i
sumers, and, at the same time, help
dairy farmers to develop production.
To insure an ample supply of but
termilk, both for homes and for
hotels and resaurants on July 1, the
Department of Agriculture requests
creameries, milk plants, and other
dairy establishments to co-operate
in the plan to popularize the drink.
It is pointed out that, while straight
buttermilk is an excellent drink, there
are a number of delicious combina*-
tions. Buttermilk lemonade is obtain
ed by adding the juice of two or three
lemons to a quart of buttermilk, with
sugar to taste. Buttermilk may be
combined with lemon juice, orange
juice or eggs and sugar for making
frozen dainties.
Aside from its food and beverage
qualities, buttermilk is said to possess
medical qualities. Many physicians
prescribe it in the treament of certain
intestinal disorders. The bacteria
that brings about the chemical change
by which butterfilk is produced is be
lieved by many physicians and bacter
iologsts to destroy certain other or
ganisms that, in the human body,
tend to hasten senility. Many prom
inent men drink buttermilk regularly
fes a tonic. One of the most widely
known lecturers and writers in the ;
United States drinks buttermilk as
regularly as he brushes his teeth—
and declares that he feels himself
getting younger with every glassful.
MAN FOUND WITH LIQUOR
IN GEORGIA IS ACQUITTED
! ATLANTA, June 23.—The crimi
nal division of the Fulton Superior
court here has produced the “seventh
wonder of the world.” It is a man
acquitted on the charge of violating
the prohibition law, a statute armed
with so many “prima facie” provis
ions of evidence that almost anyone
may be convicted under a literal in
terpretation of it—and general that
is the kind the courts an* Juries here
place thereon.
W. C. Woods, an automobile man
of Atlanta, was found not guilty.
The officers claimed that they found
whisky in his place of business. He
said it must have been brought there
by an outsider, that in any event its
presence was unknown to him.
Despite the strictness of the law,
the jury believed him and brought in
a verdict of not guilty. His lawyers
say they have won the croix de
guerre.

The new Chevrolet Baby Grand Model is ready for your
inspection. We want you to see it as soon as possible.
This new car stands for all that is good and tried in auto
mobile designing. Here is the stream line body at its
best.
Not an angle anywhere, only a series of curves that blend
with each other.
Here you have mechanical efficiency brought down,
almost, to the date of your purchase.
Here you have comfort and conveniences without the ex
travagancies.
Truly, here is a car the careful and thoughtful purchasers
have been waiting to see, for it is so well balanced.
Mechanically, it meets every wish. It has plenty of power.
Its clean-cut chassis illustrates the care taken in its de
signing. And this is true of its exterior appearance, which
we have already described.
By all means, see this car as soon as you can. It will be
a pleasure, too, to show the other Chevrolet types, both
in open and closed models.

NO SMALL HOGS TAKEN AT
FARMERS’ SALE ON JULY 9
Another co-operative hog sale will
be held at Plains Wednesday, July 9.
Farmers are urged by County Agent
Marshall not to bring in for sale small
hogs, as the small animals cause the
larger hogs to bring a lower price.
Besides it pays the farmer to grow
! out the small hogs to No. I’s.
No hogs under 135 pounds will be
sold in this sale. The elimination of
the small stuff insures better prices
for the hogs.
“Bring the hogs in early and avoid
| loss from heat. We want +c be ready
Ito auction them off by 12 o’clock,”
says Mr. Marshall.

REVIVAL STARTS SAILORS, BACK, AND BARBECUE
OFF WITH RUSH WILL ORGANIZE AT LESLIE 4TH
Yesterday was a great day at the
Central Baptist church. Large congre
gations turned out both morning and
evening. The house was packed at
the evening service. Mrs. George Dib
ble, wife of Rev. George Dibble, di
rector of music in the meetings, spoke
briefly at the Sunday school hour.
The impression made was sufficient
to bring a splendid crowd of young
people together at 7:30 in the even
ing, at which time she made a strong
appeal for a “complete surrender for
service in the kingdom of Christ.”
At the morning service, the pastor,
Rev. George F. Brown, preached on
“The Power of Christ in Realm of
Human Need,” At the evening ser
vice Mr. Dibble led in several stirring
hymns, supported by two chorus
choirs, and a responsive audience.
Following the song service he preach
ed from Matt. 28:19, laying special
emphasis on the command to “Go.”
He declared that “a going Christian
is a growing Christian,” and “a grow
ing Christian is a going Christian.”
Mr. Dibble will preach again at
I 8:30 tonight. Mrs. Dibble will ad
j dress a gathering of women at 4:30
I o’clock this afternoon. Both speakers
: have made a profound impression,
and are expected to be greeted by
large gatherings today.
Dr. J. B. Phillips will arrive Tues
day from Chattanooga, and take over
the preaching services.
JUNIOR CHOIR GROWS IN
INTEREST AND NUMBER
The Junior choir of the Central
Baptist church is growing in number
and interest at each service. Miss
Herndon requests that they meet for
a rehearsal at 7:30 each evening be
fore the regular revival meetings.
Tuesday evening Junior choir badg
es will be given to every boy and girl
who gets there at 7:30 o’clock.

a strong man for babies.
Desmond is popular with the “in

curred recently has made him more
cautious in his attitude toward that
interesting branch of the homogene

ing Christmas week, Mr. Desmond
noticed a lively little chap reposing
in a perambulator nearby, goo-ing
and stretching his little arms toward
him. Desmond, as usual, wanted to
please that infant. Nothing would do
but that the child must play with his
watch.
He placed his timepiece, a veiy
thin, small one, in the baby’s lap just
as a friend approached and engaged
him in conversatic n. Suddenly a
bawling, followed by a woman’s
shriek, rent the air. Turning, he saw
a woman approaching the baby with
horror and dismay written all over
her countenance. The watch had dis
appeared ; baby’s voice had not, but
it came in short staccato yelps.
