PAGE TEN WHFP BIC RECORD! BfGOBW cor In 12 Months She Produces 9,-- 419 Pounds Milk Contain ing 584 Pounds Butter SANDERSVILLE. Dec. 15. -Ac cording to figures jusi released by W. H. Howell, Manner cf F rn Crest Guernsey Farm ez tWs place, Pauline Ranter a registered Guern sey cow has completed a very re markable record which makes her (he highest producing Guernsey cew cf her age in all the southern States. Pauline was only one year, five months and eighteen days old when this record started and she gave in twelve months 9,419.7 pounds of milk, containing 49t>.65 pounds of butter fat which is equi alent to 584 pounds of butter. . The early age at which this rec ord was made shows the early ma-| turity of the Guernsey breed. The persistency of the breed is evidenc ed by the fact that during the last month of her test Pauline produced 10 pounds more butter fat than she produced in the first month of her test. Pauline Ranter is sired by , Imp. Itchen Ranter and has nine half sisters in the herd that have been heard from and w: i continue tomake history for the Guernsey breed at Fern Crest. Dr. Raw lings believes there is just as much difference in the ability of cows to jnake a profit as there i. in men to succeed in any profession. EX-SERVICE MEN MUST FILE CLAIMS QUICKLY!

HAVE DARK HAIR |i ■ AND LOOK YOUNG Nobody Can Tell When You I Darken Gray, Faded Hair With Sage Tea i Grandmother kept her hair beauti fully darkened, glossy and attractive with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance, this sim ple mixture was applied with wonder ful effect. By asking at any drug store for ‘‘Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Com pound,” you will get a large bottle of this old-time recipe, improved by the addition of other ingredients, all ready to use, at very little cost. This sim ple mixture can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair. Well-known druggists say everybody uses Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Com pound now because it darkens so natur ally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied—it’s so easy to use, too. You simply dampen a comb or soft brush and draw it through your hair, taking one strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears; af ter another application or two, it is re stored to its natural color and looks glossy, soft and beautiful.

X U h O SHOP EARLY FOR CHRISTMAS ' THE MOES FIND SOUTH BEST PLICE TO LIVE Few Blacks Are Now Emigrat ing To Northern Cities Rail road Men Say Al LANTA, Dec. 15.—Fcv/ South ern negroes are now emigrating to Northern cities, according ts rail road transportation agents. The movement that as- so pronounced two years ago, cheifly through e activities of Northern labor agents working in Southern communi ties has apparently ceased, it was stated. Those negroes who had gone North have either returned to Southern homes and communities or have given, up hope of returning and are making the meat of a bad move, it was shown. They are not being joined by others. There is an impressive lesson for the Southern negro in the passing of the craze to go North, agricultur al leaders state. They have learned through those who tried it. the agri cultural leaders point out, that there is no easv money for, toe negro in North. They have learned also, it was said, that the promise of social equality, of political equality and of equality in other ways was a false promise. “There is no more equality in the North for tjie negro than there is in the South,’’ said a prominent negro leader here recently.” Ti:e cnly difference is that in the South the negro is among white friends who understand him and help him, while in the North he is among strangers who do .not understand him, have no real sympathy for him and will not help him.” Southern Negroes M'aice Progress', That the negro in the S. uth can and does make progress an i is mov ing ahead to independence ’n a fi nancial way where he is industrious and frugal, was pointed out here today by both white and black lead ers of the negro race. The steady clitfab of the negro ir the South as a home owning ant land-owning citizen coupled Wit! his marked decrease in illitericj constitute an impressive proof thai the negro race is on t’ e ascendinp scale of racial improvement anc progress, it was shown. In Atlnnts and in many other southern cities and farming community. are mane negroes who own their homos, soim of whom have prosperous 'business enterprises and man.,' .’.lio werl daily and earn good pay. and wh< rre finding life pleasant and th< future not discouraging in Dixie.

When there is confidence people are prepared to do business and if underlying conditions are right, gcod times will follow. Con ditions in this country are sound the people are confident and we are entitled to look forward to a period of healthy expansion and prosperity. The railroads are prepared to do their part. Never before have great er facilities for transportation been at the service of shippers. For years these facilities have been in process of growth and improvement and, speaking generally, the rail roads are now in a high state of efficiency. This process of development must be a continuing one. There is no reason why it should not keep abreast of the requirements of com merce if unsound economic theories are avoided in dealing with rail- PINKSTON ■ Americus’ Christmas Store Every Coat Every Dress REDUCED!

Initiative and the hope of reward built the railroads which have been instrumental in making the country what it is, and they must still play their part. , There, of course, must pe regula tion in order to guard against abuse, but efficiency and good service will depend not so much or. regulation as on the mutual understanding and cooperation of those who own, who operate, and who use the railroads.
