AT THE RYLANDER.
Henry B. Walthall, one of the first
favorites of the screen will return
in a featured role with the presenta
tion of the First National attraction,
‘One Clear Call,” at the Rylander
theater Saturday. Associated with
Mr. Walthall in this production are
Milton Sills and Claire Windsor in
the featured roles.
“One Clear Call” is the third pro
duction emanating from the noted
producer-director, John M. Stahl,
for First National, within recent
months.
For it he secured the screen rights
to the Francis Nimmo Greene story
and had Bess Meredyth do the scen
ario. This picture calls for a large
cast, expensive settings and spectacu
lar mob scenes. In one instance, at
least, several hundred riders are call
ed upon to depict a night time foray
of Ku Klux Klansmen.
Action in the story centers around
a small Alabama town where Henry
Garnett, dissipated son of old Col.
Garnett has returned to the home
town again. Among his old asso
ciates Dr. Alan Hamilton, a brilliant
surgeon, is the only one who extends
the hand of frienship. Suffering
from physical ills young Garnett en
dures mental anguish because of the
disappearance of his young wife,
against whom he had committed no
wrong, but who had left hhn solely
because she disapproved of his
method of living. Dr. Hamilton
discovers that the woman he loves is
the missing wife and in the dtaal con
flict between love and loyalty the
story finds one of its elements of
interest.
The picture has been given a su
perb production and teems with ac
tion in every reel.
FILIBUSTER IN
SENATE HOLDS
Tax Equalization Law To Lose
When House Is Reached—
House Action Doubtful
ATLANTA, July 7.—The filibust
er in the senate over the repeal of
the tax equalization law continued
today, and it looks like it wjll re
main in progress for several days.
The majority of the members of
the senate favor the repeal of the
law but the minority led by L. C.
Brown, of Athens, and others ar?
blocking the efforts of the majority
at every step.. A yea and nay roll
call on every question is demanded.
Various and sundry motions are
made for the purpose of killing time
and preventing the measure from
coming to a vote.
When the dilatory tactics come to
an end the senate will pass the re
peal .bill. The attitude of the house
on the question is doubtful, as house
leaders are of the opinion that before
the equalization bill is repealed there
should be some satisfactory meas
u,e to take jts place, otherwise the
state will b e in a bankrupt condition.
MOTOR BUS LINE MEN
FIGHTING CONTROL BILL
A 1 LAN I A, July 7.—The judiciary
committee of the state senate will
hold a special meeting next Tuesday
afternoon at 3 o’clock to discuss the
bill to put all motor bus lines in the
state under the jurisdiction of the
railroad commission and to require
all bus lines to give indemnity bonds
against loss or damage to freight
and passengers. The Bus Line as
sociation is fighting the measure,
while the Georgia Short Line Rail
road association is fighting for it.
ROSCOE PEACOCK AFTER
LARSEN’S SEAT AGAIN
ALLAN LA, July 7.—Roscoe Pea
cock, veterans of the World War, and
well known Georgia lawyer, of tfast
nmn, has announced for congress in
'he 12th district against W. W. Lar
in. C apt. Peacock made the race
'wo years ago but was defeated.
Strange things happen. We know
a June bride who can cook.
KIWANIS BACK
AGGIE REQUEST
Effort To Secure Payment By As
sembly Os Building Debt
Heartily Endorsed
The Americus Kiwanis club went
on record Friday at its weekly lunch
eon as endorsing the efforts of th'e
Third District Agricultural school to
obtain from the present assembly an
appropriation to liquidate the debt of
about $38,000 on the new academic
building at the school which was
erected to replace one of the main
buildings of the'school destroyed by
fire in 1916. The proposal was made
by Stephen Pace. W. T. Lane pro
posed that the club throw its entire
support behind the proposal. He de
clared that the state owned the prop
erty, that the school was a state in
stitution, that the money was not
asked to pay an accumulated floating
debt but for a magnificent building
which was an essential to the opera
tion of the school, that the school had
no way of paying the debt but would
be crippled as long as it existed, and
that it was the state's business and
duty to pay it. Mayor J. E. Shep
pard moved that the club heartily en
dorse the school and its request of
the assemhJy and that Secretary
Bradley Hogg be instructed so to no
tify the proper persons and officials.
The club's entertainment took a
patriotic form. Al the recent inter
national convention an amendment to
I the constitution was adopted provid
ing that the national emblem be dis
played at all meetings of local clubs
hereafter. Three local Boy Scouts
were guests of the club and put on
a flag and gun drill tinder the direc
tion of Fil'd Smith, who made some
appropriate remarks upon the flag
and its meaning.
JUDGE FISH NOT LEAVING
ms duties for politics
ATLANTA, July 7.—Judge Dick
Russell, who announced for chief
jusitce against Judge W. 11. Fish has
been bu y in the KinibUl House lob
by for the past several days. The
judge has not met with such great
encouragement. Judge Fish is con
tinuing his duties as chief justice of
the Supreme court, taking the high
ground that judges should not seek
Olli the people and ask for votes.
YEAST NO ‘FAD’
SAY SCIENTISTS
The. greatest scientific minds agree
that yeast is one of the most im
portant medical discoveries. No
method of banishing skin eruptions
or building'health has yet been found
which can equal it. This is because
yeast contains certain vital elements
which are lacking in the modern
diet. Already millions of people have
secured amazing benefits from yeast.
Recently, however, a new process has
been discovered called “ironization,”
through which people are securing
benefits from yhast in just half the
usual time. This process, embodied
only in Ironized Yeast, helps to im
mediately convert the vital yeast ele
ments into firm tissue and rich pure
blood. If weak, thin or run-down—
or if troubled with pimples, black
heads or boils, it will pay you to try
Ironized Yeast at once. To try lion
ized Yeast entirely free simply mail

If KIDNEYS ACT
CAD TAKE SO
Says Backache is a rigTi you have been
eating too much meat, which
forms uric acid.
When you svako nn with backache and
dull misery in the kidney region it gen
orally mcann you have been eating too
much meat, Says a. well-known authority.
Meat forms uric arid which overworks
the kidneys in their effort to filter it
from the blood and they become sort of
paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relievo, your bowclsj re
moving all the body’s urinous waste,
else you have" bacl-n*che*;|sick ■‘headache,
dizzy spells; your sFr»n.ic|i sours, tonguo
is coated, and when th!*'weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The urine
is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often
get sore, water scalds and you arc obliged
to seek relief two or three times during
the night.
Either consult a good, reliable physi
cian at once or get from your pharmacist
about four ounces of <Jad Salts; take
a tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has berm used for generations to
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys,
also to neutralize acids in the urine so it
no longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness. f
J Jad Salts is a life saver for regular
meat eaters. Tt is inexpensive, cannot
injure and makes a delightful, effer
vescent lithia-watcr drink.

Bring Back Color and
Lustre to Hair.
You can turn gray, faded hair beau
tifully dark and lustrous almost over
night if you’ll get a bottle of "Wyeth’s
Sage and Sulphur Compound” at any
drug store. Millions of bottles of this I
old famous sage Tea Recipe, improved i
by the addition of other ingredients,
are sold annually, says a well-known
druggist here, because it darkens the .
hair so naturally and evenly that no
one can tell it has been applied.
Those whose hair is turning gray or
becoming faded have a surprise await- ,
ing them, because after one or two I
applications the gray hair vanishes
and your locks become luxuriantly
dark and beautiful. r
This is the ago of youth. Gray
haired, unattractive folks aren't
wanted around, so get busy with I
Wyeth's Sage and Sulpfiur Compound [
ito-night and you'll be delighted with
Txour dark, handsome hair and your
youthful appearance within a few
days. » C*
