SATURDAY AFTERNOON, APRIL 26, 1924 * M HI IS SPEAKER AT FORSVTH Americus Man Deliverd Memo rial Address There Friday —lntroduced By Bivins FORSYTH, April 26.—Forsyth observed Memorial day here yester day. At 2 o’clock a large audi ence greeted the speaker of the occasion, F>-ank Walker Harrold, of Atlanta, who was introduced by Rev. R. L. Bivins. Mr. Harrold’s address was elo quent, dealing with the South of yesterday which has made possible the South of today. He showed the progress of the country during the years following the reconstruction period. DOG LAW WILL BE ENFORCED HEREAFTER VALDOSTA, April 26.—Official announcement was made at the City Hall this morning that commencing immediately the recent dog law would be enforced rigidly. The resolution by the board of health, which automatically becomes an ordinance, was formulated some weeks ag 0 but enforcement was delayed because of a lack of hu man muzzles for the dogs. How ever, the urgent necessity for pio tecting people from rabid dogs has made it imperative that the law should be enforced. Those who own dogs must either arrange to ob serve the law or take the conse quences. Sp if faithful Fido should fail to show up when expected, one can reasonably understand what be came of the dog. HIGHWAY WILL BE SHORTENED MILE MOULTRIE, April 26.—The Moultrie-Thomasville road will be made nearly a mile shorter and greatly improved by a chai tre in the route that is being made just south of the city limits, according to an announcement made at the office of the Board of County Com missioners here. The State High way Department is co-operating with the county in making the change in the road and the work will be finished about the middle of May, it was stated. The part of the road that is to be abandoned when the new link is oper-ed, has been in bad condition for years and is built on type of soil that makes proper maintenance almost out of the ques tion the county engineer advised the commissioners. ’TATER GROWERS SPEED UP ORGANIZATION WORK MOULTRIE, April 26.—Accord ■ ing to the organizers of the Geor gia Sweet Potato Growers’ Associ ation at the end of the first week of the signup campaign, farmers who have been called upon were found to be far more responsive than they were expected to be, al though it was known that the plan to form the new co-operative sell ing organization had been well re ceived. Written requests from 25 courties have been received by the organization headquarters urging that representativees be sent into the counties from which the com munications were sent. Many letters also have beer re received from middle and north counties, but it is known it will hardly be possible to invade these sections this season. The sign-up campaign, however, will be rapidly pushed ir. 25 counties in this section of the state and just as soon ais a sufficient number of members have been secured a permanent or ganization will be perfected at a general mass meetir. ?.
