BALLARD’S ACTION IS REPUDIATED BY BOARD ATLANTA, June 13.—The State Board of Education, following a hearing here has sustained Walter B.

Dr. Ballard then ordered the spe cial Rockefeller fund withdrawn from general moneys available for operation of state schools, which ac tion automatically abolishes Mr. Hill’s position, inasmuch as the of fice of special supervisor was main tained from the out-of-state fund., Resolutions passed by the board i set forth that the request for Hill’s resignation “was made without con sultation with and approval of the Georgia State Board of Education.” The board also ruled that Hill’s work “has been eminently efficient and eminently satisfactory” to the general education board, the state board and to the ( people whom he' serves.

THACHER’S PREPARATION GIVES RELIEF Poisoned! Made sick by sheer neglect! This is what happens to countless numbers of men and women here in Americus—perhaps in your own family. Every drop of water used in a city passes through a gigantic filter where poisonous waste matter is I eliminated and the water is made pure. People would 1 soon protest if City Officials allowed this filter to become clogged. Water could no longer be purified, impurities would seep through and your family would be made sick by the very water that flows into your own home. UPSETS WHOLE SYSTEM Yet, this is exactly what happens to you every time you allow your body’s filter to become sluggish and clogged. This is why many wake up feeling dull and tired—tongue coated; bad taste in the mouth and of fensive breath! Why many suffer from such symp toms as poor digestion, sour stomach, and formation of gas, improper movement of the bowels, sick head aches and a nervous, upset and over-taxed condition of the system. It explains why one catches cold easily while in this run-down condition, and why the system is not healthly enough to throw off these trou bles as Nature intended. WHY YOU FEEL BAD! Your body’s filter is your liver—put there Ey Na ture with definite worfc to do. Every fifteen min- — case. Expert witnesses introduced by the commission at the hearing placed the value of the property as of January 1, 1924, at about $6,- BROTHERHOOD OFFICIAL GIVES TANLAC ’ CREDIT FOR RESTORING HEALTH Oldest Member of B.

Once when I came in from my run with my stomach all upset and my di gestion just about wrecked, Tanlac proved effective, and I began to swear by it. Again following an accident that kept me bed for a longtime and pulled med own to a mere shadow of myself, I turned to Tanlac and it built my weight right up and gave m e back all the energy and strength I ever had. “Not only has Tanlac helped me, Joy and Gladness From the moment the loaves come from an oven, a beautiful golden brown, until their tasty slices find their place on your table, our bread is handled with the utmost care.
