The opening years of the Revolu tionary war were years of intellec tual ferment and political reac tion. Men were beginning to think for themselves and along new lines ! They were breaking qway from | the old theological donination Poli ! tics and religion were being dis associated, theocracy was giving v.ay for democracy. The Revolution was a result not so much of oppression as a new conception of liberty. The Stamp Act would have caused no real d's tress, but it was odious as an ob stacle to the progress of new ideas. Loyalty for England sutD denly changed to love for America On July 4th, 1775 a provincial congress was held at Savannah, bv the authority of the people, and in defiance of the authority of the King. While the'congress was tn session a British Warship arrived. Commissionerd by the congress, Commodore Bowen and Major Joseph Habershaw with a number of volunteers boarded the ship off Tybee Island. This was the first naval capture of the Revolu tion. When the convention declar- you would squeeze a rubber hose pipe. These muscle fibres should contract three times a day—within in hour after each meal. If they do i | not contract, they have lost their ! tone —their power to contract. But, there is a practically perfect remedy for lazy, flabby colons. This | remedy quickly restores the tone, is ; absolutely harmless and decidedly pleasant to take. Clin this article and take it to your druggist. Tell him to give you a bottle of Colotone —the colon tonic, it will cost you one dollar if you are pleased with it, nothing if you are not pleased with it. for every druggist has been • instructed to refund the price and ask r>o questions if his customer is not thoroughly satisfied. But you will be delighted with Colotone for it will make you feel like a different person. Your eyes ‘will sjfarkle with vitality and alert ness; ypur, brain will be clear and active'; pour complexion will be *-ffpsh.iiijd transparent, reflecting .the purity of your blood; your di gestion will be thorough and your appetite keen, for your food will taste delightful and will agree with you; you willi sleep and awake re freshed; your system will he full of vim and vigor; you will feel younger,' stronger, vigorovp—you will enjoy the pleasure of living. Get started on Colotone today. Nearly every person over twenty five or thirty years of age, and many younger, need Colotone more or less. You will be simply delight ed with it. Colotone can not possi bly do you any harm—it can only do you good. Try it on our guaran tee. It will help you live long, well and happily.— (adv.) ed the thirteen colonies free and j independent, July 4th, 1776, Geor ! gia’s delegation was /there, and I George Walt,on-Lyman Hall and ! Button Gwinnett signed in behaf I of Georgia. The people then ar- I rested the pi’ovince governor who represented the King and organiz ed a government of their own. The people Aius united became the state of (ieorgia. War was no longer prospective, it was a grim fact. The part Geor gia was to play in the struggle for freedom was indeed not negli gible, and we must bear in mind that she had to contend with pow erful and openly hostile tribes of Indians to the West, and Spaniards to the South, whose friendship cold 1 not he relied upon, but hin derances did ot lower tbei morale of a people whose hearts beat for liberty and independence. It. would be too volumnnous to narrate every patriotic act heroic deed, and individual valor evidenced so often during the perilous years of the Revolution. TThcrcfore *only and account of the most conspi cious can be given. It is familiar to very student of history that the war was .trans ferred to the South in 1778, and Savannah was captured and Geor gia was overrun by British sold ieds. Then when all seemed lost, that bold general, Anthony Wayne with the help of the partisans of the state was able to regain the strongholds and iinally to drive Die British out of the state. Col. John Mclntosh a brave hero, when in command of Fort Morris, received word from a Bri tish general to surrender. Col Mclntosh boldly replied: ‘“Ctome and Take It.’ Thtj fort did not capi tulatc. Later the Georgia legisla ture presented to Col Mclntosh a sword with the words, “Come anl take it,” engraved upon It. We must not overlook the bra very of Sergeant Jasper, who with a lone comrade rescued a number of American prisoners who were in the custody of ten British sold iers being taken to Savannah fov trial. Another brave, pure, and patrio tic Georgian who served gallantly throughout the Revolutionary war was General James Jackson. In the battles in and around Savan nah he especially distinguished Jiimsclf. Jackson later became International Live Stock Exhibit CHICAGO, ILLS Decembers: 1-8, 1923 ( On account of above men tioned exhibit, tjkctttfijwpi tickets will be on sale to the public No vember 20 to December 2, 192.1, inclusive.

He was respon sible for the Yuzop Fraud defeat, resigning his scat in the United States senate ’to become a mem ber of his States legislature, in order to accomplish it. lie is the only man in the history of our nation who gave up being senator j to go to the state legislature. Lyman Hall, one of the signers i of the Declaration of Independ- j ence, though he never bore arms, promptly took sides with the pat riots when the storm of the Revo lution began to lower and to them he was a tower of strength. Geor, I gia has fittingly perpetuated; his memory by naming one of her of her counties for him, and so long as freedom and independence live, so long will the memory of I Lyna Hall be remembered. George Walton, the youngest of the signers of the Declaration of Independence from Georgia, immortalized his . name in the pages of history, through his ser vice in the War, particularly in his defence of'; .Savannah. lie held many offices of honor and trust. Walton county was named for him Button Gwinnett, the remain ing signer of the Declaration of Independence, did not leave cord so enviable as did Walton, and Hall. Within two years he arose from obscurity to promin ence. His loyalty to America has been questioned, but the mere fact that his /'signature is attached to that immortal paper which de dal es us free and independent seems to speak otherwise. His memory too, has been perpeluated by one of Georgia’s most prosper ous coilhties bearing) "ms name.
