John Outler, pastor of the First Methodist church, was the principal speaker at Rotary’s luncheon Wednesday in the hotel. His subject, selected by Program Chairman Carr Glover, was “A Man’s Responsibility 'to His God, His hellowman and His Commun ity.’’ The inspiring message was greeted. Frank Harrold introduced a reso lution, thanking “the Central Georgia Railway for the splendid service during the past few months in the operation of the two daily trains, the Dixie Limited and the Dixie Flyer,” expressing the belief that these two trains had proven of great value to Americus. The text of the resolution which was unani mously adopted, is as follows: The Americus Rotary Club hereby extends its thanks to the Central of Georgia Railway Com pany for the splendid service; given Americus during the past few months in the operation of the two day light trains the Fiori dan and the Dixie Limited. We believe these trains have proven of great value to this section as it is the first time the northern tourist has had an op portunity to have a day light ride through this the garden spot section of Georgia and we be lieve will result in many of them locating in this part of the state. We wish further to state that the names of these trains have become by words with our peo ple and have grown to be their favorites in their travels. It is with keen regret that we see they have been discontinued and it is the earnest wish not’ only of this club, but we*are sure of every person in this section, that they soon be restored ano if possible made year round trains and not just for a few months. President Rylander announced an addition to the general program committee Frank ’^Sheffield 1 , Jr., Lee Hansford and W. G. Turpin. They serve for the year under Cobb Milner, chairman. Among guests present were J. C. Maness, of the state board of entomology; Dr. R. J. H. DeLoach weevil authority, who spoke to the ' club; L. W. Brown, of Americus; George 0. Marshall, county demon strator; Rev. A. W. Qu/.llian, of Madison; J. F. Rossman, of Chica go; Carr Glover, Jr. and Rev. John Outler. Among the many pertinent thoughts contained in Dr. Outlet’s address were the following: “Man’s Responsibility to his God, his fellowman and his community— “ln this we have the spiritual, so cial, and civic duties of man. No man liveth unto* himself, or dicth unto himself. “By nature man is a worshipper. His natural inclinations are soci able. His self preservation is de termined by his attitude toward his fellow man. “No man is complete until he has established proper relation with his God. “A man’s higher nature devel ops more satisfactory and more rapidly with proper ielationships existing between him and his fel low man. “You can’t help your-fellowntan unless you know him, you cannot know him unless you associate with him, and your own nature can not develop under a selfish, cynical, jiloof spirit. Make it a rule t o «livo in the ‘House by the side of tho Road.’ “I do not desire to convey they idea that I am advocating a kind of hail fellow well met, without standards, convictions, and concep tions of right relationships, but when you have fully appreciated your responsibility to your fellow man, you will use your personality to help him see as you do. “Until a man feels his responsi bility to his community, he is in grave danger. “He faces selfishness, censorious ness; he will become unsympathet ic, he will grow miserly, niggardly, narrow. “The ten talented man, is as a rock in a weary land, or a shelter in the time of a storm. “Make your contribution toward a better citizenry, for higher mot als, for purer ideals.” Dr. Outler declared, in conclu sion, that the community has the right to demand a part of a man’s time, of his interests, of his means, “and the man who fails to feel and know the responsibility that he owes his community is in gravd danger,” for you are “your broth er’s keeper.” Japan has a population vs nearly g 0,000,000,, 000, ♦ ■■ Tr ■ FRECKLES AND HIS FRIENDS They Expect a Star and Uniform By Blossei fFi ' IF YOU k’DS Do*:T "C vbuuE < SAY, MAVJF'JOO FT ’COOGSE I UA\J& ~ \ / ; SUBMS josrc I ) T 1 Douce ®©6 \ 4 'T’-’-'T fl 6FS, 'A7 aiMT V * M WONDER WEQF V 'v’tlvg MAY?

POISON VEGETABLES ARE FATAL TO CHILD DOUGLAS, May 15.—A sad mis take in using poison has lesulted in Coffee county, in the family of Vince Grantham, living a few miles from Douglas, in which one child is dead, and other members of the family are in critical condition. Mr. Grantham was using arsen ate of lead to poison Irish potato bugs, near some vegetables in his garden, and it is supposed that tho wind blew the arsenate of lead to the vegetables. Mrs. Grantham, without knowing it gathered and cooked some of the vegetables, and the family was immediately taken desperately ill. One small child died, and Mr. Grantham, himself, is now in criti cal condition, and Mrs. Grantham and some of the other members of the family have been very ill, but arc slightly improved now. POUDGEHET# OF BONUS GO SIMILE (Continued From Page One.) that any search will encounter may be gained from the fact that the army files contain the records of 50,328 Smiths who served during the war; 40,101 Johnsons; 28,902 Browns and 27,938 men named Williams. In countless cases ini tials and even the first and second names are identical, yet the records must separate, them one from the other and to each give his propor- I tionate -benefit computed on the ac-1 I tual service he rendered in the w<:r. | The daily service of every sol-1 dier, sailor, or marine who served under the flag in the Great War at home or abroad, w-ould have been subject to minute examination i had the bill been approved. Through his days of sickness and health, of training at home or bat tle abroad, searchers would have had to follow each man through the i wilderness of official records. And I the bulk of the task would have to be done in close packed filing eases of the War Department where the intimate official story of America at war alone is told. In those recordsaalo e are more than 167,000,000 separate docu ments each of which it would have been necessary to handle many j times before the veterans can all jb e asured of bonus payments in the event the bill is passed over the veto. It will require 27 separate checking operations to make the I examinations of th e files and it will take 2,800 clerks to do the work in the War Department alone. There are amazing stories by the ■ hundreds of thousands among these individual war records. Thcr e are THE AMERICUS TIMES RECORDER tales of highest heroism, of great adventure; tales, too, rich in pathos and sacrifice. They are the war story of each one of the millions of men g-athered into th e vast volume of th e files that must be opened for perusal. Among them are the brief records of the many who were call ed for service ut to whom death came in the hospitals almost before they had their taken soldier oaths. And among them also, never to be recognized for what it is, lies the brief story of America’s Un known Soldier, the record that would show, if it were in the power of man to pick it out who he was and where he fought and how he died. big Smuiir HfiTCHEFY ISSBBEB (Continued From Page One) of pedigreed stock. Some of his birds cost as high as $l5O each This information, Mr. Rylander gave to show that he is endeavoring to promote the very best stock in that is to be found any where in America. In addition to White Leghorns of the Ferris 300-egg strain, which constitute 80 per cent of his flocks, Mr. Rylander has Barred.

Os these latter varieties Rho4e Is land Reds comprise probably 10 per cent of the whole, with the oth er strains divided among the re maining birds in the Dock.

Discussing this feature to day it was brought out that there are now in the fattening betteries at the Rylander farm a total of 500 hens, fryers and broilers being pre pared for immediate marketings These birds are being “stuffed” upon a milk containing mash of extreme fattening quality and when they have been kept there a short time will command top pricees, with their flesh greatly favored among connoisseurs. The chicken pens at the Rylander farm, Mr. Rylander stated today, are open at all times for the inspec tion of visitors, and farmers and others interested in poultry produc tion are invited to stop there at any time, with the assurance that attendants in charge will be pleas ed to show them through the entire plant, and explain in detail the ac tivities under way there. Early in the Spring Mr. Rylan der made known to the farmers of the county his desire t 0 let them have settings of eggs in exchange for a pullet when the eggs were hatched and the chicks had grown to maturity. To his surprise, the de mand was ten times gi eater than his supply could meet. Some of the largest, some of the very best farmers in the cou- ty were among the hundreds who made application. He placed as many eggs in the county as his yards would provide. Now in a few months these pullets will be com ing back to him to be added to his thoroughbred laying stock. This fall he expects to have be tween 2,000, 2,500 laying hens pro ducing eggs which again will be passed to the farmers on the same agreement as in the spring. And in addition he will have the com munity hatchery ready to hatch I these these eggs for the farmers. I “You can not conceive the inter est that has been awakened in the county in the past few months in poultry. It has astounded me,” said Mr. Rylander. “There is no doubt that in a short time Sumter will be known as a poultry producing coun ty, as well as a cotton county. “This w'ill give our farmers a 1 cash crop almost every week in tn'e, year. It will be possible for him—i it is possible for him now—to turn 1 into cash any chicks or eggs he has; on his place. With the added inter- j est, with the farmers equipping themselves with thoroughbred stock greater numbers o"f chicks and eggs will be raised and marketed here ".-v'd Kills, fifes lteis£s,SKA,ll£ Blow fine spray into room for flies.

Mr. Rylander says that while he has not yet definitely decided just where the big community hatchery will be placed, that very likely it will find a home in the rear or on the lot occupied by the Americus Automobile company and othcs Rylander interests. Drink Water If Kidneys Bother Take a Tablespoonful of Salts if Back Pains or Bladder is Irritated Flush your kidneys by drinking a quart of water each day, also take salts occa sionally, says a noted authority, who tells us that too much rich food forms acids which alrtiost paralyze the kidneys in their efforts to expel it from the blood. They become sluggish and weaken; then you may suffer with a dull misery in the kidney region, sharp pains in the back or sick headache, dizzi ness, your stomach sours, tongue i* coatell, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the chan nels often get sore and irritated, oblig ing you to seek relief two or three times during the night. To help neutralize these irritating acids; to help cleanse the kidneys ana flush off the body’s urinous waste, get ' four ounces of Jad Salts from any phar macy here. Take a tablespdonful in a ?’lass of water before breakfast for a ew days, and your kidneys may then act fine This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com bined with lithia. and has been usedfor years to help flush and stimulate slug gish kidneys; also to neutralize the acids in the system so they no longer irritate, thus often relieving bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive; can not in jure and makes a delightful efferve*- cent lithia-water drink. By all meant have your physician examine your ld4* , neys at least twice a year.
