Old Age Deferred
A Woman Is As Old As She
Looks And a Man As Old As
He Feel*.
This is a familiar saying, full of
significance nowadays, but when vi
tality gets low and one lacks energy,
Vino!, the i on-secret cod-liver and
iron strength-creator and body-build
er, is the one remedy that may be de
pended upon to enrich the blood,
quicken the circulation, increase the
appetite and in a natural manner im
part strength and vigor to every part
cf the body. I
There are many people in this
citv who will tell you from actual ex
->erience how much Vinol has done
for them.
Your druggist sells it, accept no
substitute.

THE BUSY BEES
OF RED AND BLUE.
Last Sunday morning at the Sun-:
day school hour the membership of
Presbyterian Sunday school was di- i
vided into two colors—red and blue. |
A captain for each side was appoint-|
ed, and these captains will head the
army of reds and blue who will work i
like busy bees between this and Oc-j
tober 3, when rally day will be ob
served with an appropriate program. '
Mrs. Frank Coman, who was an ac
tive member of the Sunday school!
when she was Miss Louise Chapman,
was made captain of the reds, while
Miss Emmie Morgan heads the blues.
It is the purpose of these two cap
tains to recruit every new member
possible for the Sunday school ranks,
and to visit personally every per
i son who has lagged in attendance
during the hot summer months, and
■ bring them to a realization of what
the Sunday school work means to ev
. ery community, especially to the
young members of the congregation.
Mrs. Coman and Miss Morgan
F have worked indefatigably all this
t week and when Sunday comes, and
* the roll is called, many a name will
> be added to the school list. Next Sun-
F day new committees will be appoint
ed from the members to assist in
. this work of recruiting, and the con
-3 test will be on in earnest between

factions and the individual members
