FRIDAY AFTERNOON. NOVEMBER UPSHAW REFUSED PERMISSION TO SPEAK IN SCHOOL Rule in Baltimore County Forbids Address to Students On Con troversial Subjects BALTIMORE. Md . Nov 6.—Rep resentative William D. Upshaw, of Georgia, was refused admittance to the Towson High School in Balti more County, when he went there to deliver an address to the students, it became known Thursday. It was explained by John 0. Herschner, assistant superintendent, of schools for Baltimore County, that a ruling of the Baltimore County school board forbade addresses on controversial subjects in the county schools, and that because Mr. Up shaw had not announced his subject before going to the school it became necessary for the principal, Arthur C. Cromer, to refuse him admit tance. Mr. Upshaw went to the high school with Rev. Mark Depp, pas tor of the Towson Methodist Epis copal Church, who had requested that Mr. Upshaw be allowed to speak It developed today that Mr. Upshaw address was to have borne the title, Pluck and Purpose. The Georgia congressman characterized the inci dent as “attempt to muzizle” him, and in a later speech ;at Rev. Dr. Depp’s church, said the refusal to al low him to speak at the school >:,c dered on the laws of the dark ages.” BRUNSWICK MAN TAKES OWN LIFE Prominent Business Man Shoots Self.

I used Sloan’s Liniment and the next day I was able to go back to work. It does work like wonder to relieve pain.” This is one letter—typical of thou sands received by the makers of Sloan’s, that tell how sprains, bruises, lame muscles, have been helped by this wonderful liniment. What is the secret of its marvelous effectiveness? It is the healing tide of fresh, new blood that Sloan’s sends right to the place that hurts. No need to rub. The medicine it self does the work. Quickly and surely it takes down the swelling and in flammation —drives out the pain. Get a bottle today. All druggie ta-35 cents. Massachusetts Town 1 ornado-Swept ..

Route Shown While many circuses this season abandon the street parade, Sparks Circus retained this feature, and this year gives the longest and most elab orate street display in the world. The route of the parade in Americus is as follows: From the lot out Jackson street to Lamar; to Cotton Ave., to Forsyth stret to Lee; to College; to Jackson and back to the grounds. Besides the many trained wild beast? exhibited at the performances of this big three ring circus, all of which will be seen in the parade when the show exhibits at Americus Saturday, Nov. 7, afternoon ano night, there are quite a number of star performers among animals not so ferocious in nature, while the feathered kingdom is also well rep resented. The Five Bibb County pigs sim ply set the house in an uproar at every performance, for there are few things more ludicrous than the small porker when he is trying not to “act like a pig.” For the convenience of manjM who wish to purchase their «eats down town to avoid the crowd on the grounds, both general admission and reserved seat tickets will be sold at The Americus Drug Store on circus day for both matinee and night per formances at the same price as at the ticket wagons in front of the big tent.
