He is one of the best evan gelists in this country, and a preacher of much power. His sermons are in teresting from beginning to end. lie is being greeted by large audiences I every night. Columbus Ledger—The audience was held spellbound by this gifted speaker as he gave with dramatic col orings the vivid picture of the suffer ing and sorrow that sin brought to the prodigal boy. Many wiped tears from their eyes as this graphic pic ture was thus skilfully drawn. Evan gelist Clarkson is doing such preach ing as will be the means of accom plishing much good in Columbus.

Every dollar you spend in our store for dynamite buys you $1.35 worth. We offer this material reduction in the cost of ex plosives because we sell Du Pont Dumorite, the new farm dynamite which gives you more work per dollar. Dumorite has the strength, stick for stick, of 40% dynamite. A box of Dumorite contains 135 to 140 sticks of this new explosive while a box of 40% dyna mite contains only 100 sticks. And box for box, the cost is the same. So the money you sp.ent for a box of dynamite in 1921 now brings you 35 to 40 addi tional sticks free. Dumorite is also the right dynamite to use forblasting boulders and tree holes, and for ditching in dry soil, where the “propagated” method (using Du Pont Straight Dynamite) cannot be employed. Stop in and let us tell you more about this remarkable Du Pont Explosive which is going to mean a big re duction in your blasting costs. SHEFFIELD COMPANY Americus, Ga.

THE SOLDIER’S BONUS The Second of a Series of Discussions of Current Events Simplified j For School Pupils and Busy Adults •j.—..—_■—.—.———..—,—....——..-4 Look at the headlines in your newspaper almost any night. You’ll see that people are interested in three big things. Each of these things is happening on a different continent. They are: ONE: India’s struggle for free dem. That’s in Asia. TWO: Trouble in the British government. That’s in Eu.ope, THREE: A bonus or gra it of money for United States sold iers. That’s in America. * « # INDIA WANTS FREEDOM. INDIA is a iong way from the Unit * ed States—on another side of the world. We are interested in what hap pens there because it will affect the British Empire, one of the world’s great powers. India is one-third as big as the | United States, but has almost three I times as many people. These people are of many different races and many different religions and do not agree. Because of this disagreement the people of India have not been able to rule themselves. Since 1757—165 years ago, Great Britain has ruled India. A native of India, called Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (prinounced Moehahn-das Karahm-chahnd Ghan dee), believes India should be free, and since the World War ended, Gandhi has become a very powerful man. Today he is the leader of all the nationalists, or natives of India who believe they should be free. Now the British have arrested j Gandhi and his followers are angry, i The British fear they will start a I revolution to put the British out of j India. » * * BRITISH GOVERNMENT TROUBLES. ’TROUBLE in India is making “ trouble for the British govern ment at home in England. David Lloyd George has been prime minister or chief executive of the British government since*!9l6. He is head of the British cabinet. Now one member of the cabinet has quit. He is Edwin S. Montagu, secretary for India. Montague resigned because of a disagreement in policy with British ! officials in India. This has weakened Lloyd George’s cabinet. Lloyd George became prime min ister in 1916 because several political parties banded together and formed what is called a coalition to support him. , Now some of the political parties that joined the coalition are threat ening to leave it. If they did, it would mean that Lloyd George would have to resign and a new cabinet or government would take the place of the one he formed. ♦ ♦ * THE SOLDIERS’ BONUS. WfHEN the United States was in " the World War thousands of soldiers, sailqj’s and marines served their country and received S3O a month as pay while other men at home made much more money. Many people believe the govern ment should make this up by giving soldiers a grant of land or money. Such a grant would be called 1 adjusted compensation or bonus. President Harding wants to pay : the bonus and raise the money by • means of a sales tax. Congress is opposed* to a sales tax. A sales tax is a tax charged whenever one person sells something to someone else—whenever a thing is “turned over,” as merchants say. Thus, when the manufacturer sells his product to the wholesaler, a small tax would be paid; when the whole saler passed it on, another tax would be paid and so on until it reached the consunfer. Os course, the tax might not be i levied on every turnover, but only on ■ certain ones the law would specify. Congress now is planning to pass the bonus bill and give soldiers, sailors and marines land at once if they want it. j But if the soldiers want money, ! under this plan, they would be given ! certificates for the amount due them I which would be paid later, when the ' government has the money.
