BATHING HlfS TO Os JT MB Al Harris and Girls Who Shock ed Macon Stopped Front Pa rading Here By Chief Bragg Jacksonville bathing beauties— girls who shocked the morals of Macon police and citizens, and who were not allowed to parade in bathing costumes as planned there, are in Americus for a stay of all night. Thc girs and their chaperones came in this afternoon, arriving at 3:30 o’clock. And they are beau - ties, too. At least that is the opin ion of them expressed this after noon by Manager Herring, of the Ryander, after an inspection of the party. Sadly enough, the girls won’t be able to stage a costume parade as they had intended in the business section of Americus. The dozen or more interested males who sat ail morning in the lobby of the Windsor awiating arrival of thc beauties will be disappointed. The girls came in—but they came by Automobile and entered Americus by a circuitous route—and in bath ing suits of the latest approved pattern. Al Harris, manager of the girls, said this afternoon that he was sor ry he and the girls had paraded through about half of Americus be fore he met Chief of Police John T. Bragg, because the chief re quested a postponement of the pa rade. In fact, the chief stated he had ben told by Mayor J. E. Poole to prevent the parade—anl Al says he always likes to occommodate the police. At Fort Valley the girls were entertained by a number of city officials and accompani dby a number of ‘town shieks’’ they pa raded within the confines of that progressive village much to the de light of all. Because of their inability to stage a parade in bathing costumes here this afternoon, Manager Har ris arrangd to have the girls at the Rylander Tlieatr tonight. And it is expected that their appear ance there will attract many pa trons there. SIX ARE KILLED IN TRAIN-AUTO CRASH MOUNT KISCO, N.

IffIIHEMfiETS NEU EQUIPffIEST Twenty-Cow Milking ' Machine Installed, Together With Modern Separator Machine Th t . Third District Agricultural and Mechanical school here now owns one of the finest dairy herds in this section of Georgia, and dur ing the summer months supplies a goodly quantity of pure creani to the Americus Creamery, where tins; is made into “Americus-Maid’’ but ter. This herd is maintained en tirely upon the school's permanent pasture, with supplemental rations from the school farm, and many of th e t:,,ws therein are producing splendid cream yields. Recently, under direction of Prof. Caswell, farm superintendent, there has been installed at the Aggi e a modern twenty-cow milk ing machine. This machine insures the highest possible degre e of sani tation in handling milk produced, as no human hand touches the cow at any time during the milking oper ation. The apparatus, of course, is thoroughly sterilized twice daily. While there are only fifteen cows milking in the herd now, it is plan ned to increase this at early date so as to utilize the full capacity of the machine, and a number of . cows will come in fresh during next month. Th e entire herd is tick free, and has been certified by state au thorities, as well as by Dr. Staple ton, Americus' city veterinarian. Periodical tubercular inspections are made in this herd, and never has the least trace of this been found. All of the cows in the herd are either registered Jerseys or grade heifers, raised upon the school fratn and bred up by cross ing with the Bull Club males sever al of which are kept at lhe school from time to time. Another improvement recently, installed at the school dairy is a No. 15 DeLaValle cream separator. This modern machine, it is claimed, will receive a much greater propor tion of cream than can be separated through the methods generally used, and Principal Prance is enthusias tic in his endorsement of the pro cess. During the winter months, when there are more than a hundred students attending the school, the herd will be unable to furnish mor e than a nominal amount of cream to the creamery, but a pian is being considered that involves the selling of cream and buying of butler, it being claimed that this can be done with apparent eco nomy.
