J. Slate auditor, in his report 01. the financial status of that institu tion, that less farmng be done by the boys in the school and that more shop work and training in the va rious trades be instituted. The school, according to Mr. Slate, has a 475 acre farm and un dertakes to cultivatte about one third of it. ‘I have not enough facts to war rant a definite conclusion, the audi to declares in his report, 'but the impression is forced on me that so large a percentage of the boys in the school are to small for farm work and the quality of the soil so poor, that it would make it advis able to do less farming and more shop work and training in the trades. I suggest to the Board of Trustees investigation and consideration of' this subject. “I venture this suggestion on the ground that the law requires me to report to you on the efficiency and economy of operations of the insti tution examined, but it wll be man ifest that in matters of policy, even though in my opinion they nvolve economy of operation, this depart ment is not qualified to qffer more than suggestons affecting such mat ters.” , , ACCUSE ALA. BANKS OF PAYING HIGH INTEREST MONTGOMERY, Ala., June 13. —Reports that some state banks In Alabama are paying more than four per cent interest on time deposits has drawn a sharp warning from A. E. Jackson, state superintendent of banks to officers and directors of all state banks saying: ‘‘We have been advised that there are "certain banks that are issuing certificates of deposit bearing four per 'cent interest and pacing the customer a bonus of 2 per cent in an eftorf to concqal the fact that they' are paying interest exceeding 4 per cent on time deposits. In our opinion, no rnan is worthy of being a bahker who is guilty of such acts?’ , He warned that if any break is found following this practice after Dec' 4, he will taste steps to have the responsible officers suspended from banking in the state. The man who has the least credit' takes* the least care of it. of the Food Value of Your Wakings Plain flour has a large amount of food value but it must be combined with good baking powder in order to retain this value. Most self rising flours are not successful because they do not raise the bakings to the proper lightness. This means a cer tain loss of nutrition because they are heavy and hard to digest. Every time you eat food that does not properly digest you do not get the full nutritional value you are over-taxing your stomach. Nourishing and perfect bakings are what good health demands. The one sure way is—use pure flour and good baking powder. If you want to find what thou sands of housewives have learned—make some biscuits with self-rising flour then make some with good plain flour and Calumet Baking Pow der-notice thegreatdifference. One trial will satisfy you. Your - health demands that you make the experiment. Those who know—millions of housewives, domestic science teachers,big hotels,restaurants, bakeries and railroads will not use anything but Calumet, the Economy Baking Powder. Play safe—use Calumet and plain flour. It is the most eco nomical and satisfactory, where light, wholesome and pure foods are desired.

MILITARY UNIT HAS PAYROLL ATTACHED BRUNSWICK, June 13.—The average person, and especially those connectted with military or ganizations, have never thought what these companies mean to a community’s payroll total, besides the numerous benefits that come from them. The Oglethorpe Guards, head quarters company of the 2nd bat talion of the 122nd infantry will scatter more than SB,OOO here an nually as it requires this sum to pay the officers and men.

GIBBS IN RACE FOR SOLICITOR GENERAL BRUNSWICK, June 13.—With the announcement of W. B. Gibbs, well known Jesup attorney, for the office of solicitor general of the Brunswick circuit, which appears to day, will start the political ball roll ing in what promises to be a lively campaign as there will be three af ter the place.

Several cars of rum runners have come to grief on this route, having been captured and their goods and cars confiscated through vigilance of County Officer Sttewart, and it is believed that these “warnings’ were put out by some of them in retaliation. The tide of travel through here does not seem to be turned away to any extent, and autoists are still taking advantage of the good roads leading here.
