Those who are wise will get busy at once and gather in the harvest of votes during this period of the biggest vote schedule. More Votes Given Now Those who have been thinking of entering the big prize dis tribution campaign and those whose names now appear in the list, but who have as yet not started an active campaign, will find no better time to do so than rgiht now. With the present vote schedule in effect, giving a new can didate a chance to pile up votes on the double quick, no one should delay entering the campaign with the determination and earnest ness to win this coming week. Do You Want Up to $1,310? The Times-Recorder’s election is so big that it ought to have the attention of the very biggest men and women in Americus and surrounding territory.

There ard three big, powerful, speedy, beautiful cars—the three of them sedans—bags of gold and silver and other awards/' Everybody Wins Something” is the slogan.

AUTO OWNERS RESENT LAW Many in Oregon Will Be Com pelled to Purchase New Lighting Equipment PORTLAND, Ore., Sept. 18.— The new eight-point lightning law that went into effect in Oregon Sept. 1 is causing considerable com-' ment by motorists of the state. The law makes certain specifica-' tions concerning the adjustment of headlights, requiring special lenses and 21 candle-power lamps. ■A large number of the automobile owners in the state will have to buy extra equipment to meet the new law’s specifications. Opponents of the new measure object to it because inspections are carried on by tradesmen with some thing to sell. They insist that the “dimming law” meets the Oregon requirements better than the new law. The new measure was supported by the automotive Trades Associa tion and by automobile Dealers Association of Oregon. RICHLAND ENJOYS - HEAVY SHOWERS RICHLAND, Sept. 18. (Spec!’.) Richland and vicinity received a much needed rain Tuesday The rain broke a long drought and will be very beneficial to fall gardening. Richland is noted for its fall toma toes, but the rain came too late to saves this crop. Lunsford and Pro thro plant several acres of toma toes each fall and make express shipments to nearby towns at good prices. Stewart county has a good cotton crop and the gins have been run ning full time since the begining of the season. The cotton crop will net twenty-five percent better than last year, but all other crops are poorer, having been effected by the the long drought. Prominent Business I Man ot Atlanta Speaks “I Can Say Without Any Reser vation That Karnak Is a Truly Wonderful Medicine,’’ Says Th os. P. Wharton. One of the outstanding features in connection with Karnak is the great number of men high in busi ness circles all over the country who indorse it in the highest terms after testing the medicine for themselves. Such, a case is that of Thos. P. Wharton, Manager of the Ordinary Department of the Amer ican National Insurance Co., with offices in the Wynne-Claughton Bldg., in Atlanta. Mr. Wharton, who resides in the Bonaventure Arms Apartments at 541 Ponce De Leon Ave., declares: “When I tell you that for twenty years I have had trouble with my stomach you can realize that Kar nak had a big job to do when it started in to help me, but it has certainly done it for I am eating things now T haven’t been able to touch for 15 years and without the slightest distress afterward. . “It used to be that after every meal my stomach would swell up so with gas and cause such intense pains that I was in misery most of the time. I was so nauseated that it was almost impossible for me to keep anything on my stomach. “I would frequently go to bed belching and my stomach hurting and would lie awake for hours. It seemed like a ton of brick was pressing down on my stomach and I would wake up in the morning soi tired that it seemed like it would I take a block and tackle to get me , up. I got up without any appetite and a splitting headache nearly ; every morning. “You know I used to think the statements I read about Karnak j were greatly exaggerated, but 11 THE AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER Plains Methodist Circuit Dr. L. E. Godwin, of the Plains j church, is improving after an oper ation at Wise Sanitarium last week. The pastor is expecting a fine day it Concord next Sunda/. The call for Conference collections is out and a ready response is expected.

The response to the call for Con ference collections last Sunday at Plains, and New Point was very gratifying indeed. New Point lacks only a few dollars which is guar ' anteed. Plains is near enough out to be sure of coming out within the 'next few days, or at least by next apopintment. Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Mcßae, of Ry lander church were welcomed visi tors for supper at the parsonage one night last week. The prayer services at Plains last Wednesday night was well attended, the Men’s Evangelistic Club render ing a most interesting program. —O. L. E. CUT-OFF Rev.

Gus and Lester Kitchens spent i Wharton ; - - after I took the medicine myself I know everything that has been said about it is true. It will cer tainly do what is claimed for it. “I now eat any number of foods that are hard to digest and which I used to long for but couldn’t touch. And I have no distress! afterward. I can come pretty near,' now to eating anything I want! without any fear of a come-back' later and my appetite is better than it has been for 20 years. I really look forward to meal-time now with pleasure. “I sleep 100% better and seem chuck full of energy. In fact, T j feel so full of ‘pep’ now that I am getting out and putting more punch in my work than I have in years.” Karnak is sold in Americus by Plnaters Drug and Seed Store, How- Planters Drug and Seed Store.
