FOR CONVENTION
HERENEXTYEAR
Will Award Citizenship Medal to
Some Member of Local
High Schoo!
The local chapter, Daughters of
the American Revolution are rapidly
completing their plans for the state
convention of that orgonization of
women which meets here in the
spring of next year, when probably
400 delegates will be present.
The sessions of the convention, to
gether with noon-day luncheons each
day, will be held in the First Meth
odist Church, the building having
been tendered the regent, Mrs. Ho
well Simmons, and accepted at the
meeting Tuesday.
A citizenship medal will be award
ed oy the chapter this year io one
of the high school boys of Ameri
cus, it was decided yesterday. A
member of the chapter, speaking of
the medal and its purpose said:
"We have been awarding medals
for essays on citizenship in the past
and undoubtedly they were good,
producing good results, but this
medal is given for being a good cit
izen and not merely knowing what
good citizenship means," rhe said.
"Wy believe the awarding of the
medal this year is a really practical
aid in promoting high ideals and an (
intelligent appreciation of the advan
tages of good ctizenship.”
The conditions under which the
medal is given are as follows:
The medal is offered in co-ojera- :
tjon. with the Sons of the American j
Resolution.
It is given for Dependability, as
evidenced by punctuality, honesty
truthfulness, loyalty and self-con
trol ; co-operation, as evidenced by
respect for authority, property ond
t:.c rights of others and by courtesy
li adership, as evidenced by what the
individual has done to make the
sci.oOl a better school; cleanliness in
speech and personal habits.
At least two months after the
m lai is offered and some ten days i
h tore it is to be awarded, the class- I
e completing will meet and select,
: y ballot, the five boys in that class
w o, they think, are best entitled to
t c medal. From this list of five .
rallies the winner is to be selected by
'.he principal and all the teachers '
v. o have had the boy in classes dur- ,
io ’ the current year.
The session yesterday enjoyed a

V HAT GOVERNMENT HAS
DONE FOR THE VETERAN
t.Jmg §237,979,000.
Cither expenditures made by Con
griss for the administration of the
Veterans’ Bureau and other inciden
tal expenses for the ex-service men
total several hundreds of millions of
do'lars, the details of which expen
ditures are not interesting. The
proper Government official advises

me that th e grand total of appropria
tions amde by Congress for the ex
service men is the colossal sum of
§3,282,052,698.03. In addition to
this sum, Congress passed what ; s
Known as the Bonus or Adjusted
I Compensation Act granting ea<‘h
I soluier or sauor and insurance pol
icy. The actuary of the Treasury
I Department estimates that this win
’ co.-t tne Government during the
I term ot years that the insurance will
run about one billion dollars. Add
this billion to the $3,282,052,698
and we will see that th e total appro
priatiton made by Congress for ex
.-ervice men reaches the stupendious
sum of $4,282,052,698. The aver
age mind cannot grasp the enormity
of these figures.
Let me make it comparison: Since
the birth of Christ up to the present
time, approximately 1,011,680.000
minutes have pased; therefore the
Government has appropriated for the
benefit of the exservice men over
four dollars a minute for all the time
I comprised in the Christian era.
I It is worthy of mention that every
| ex-service man suffering from a dis
ability incident to his military serv
ice is entitled to hospitalization by
the government with pay during the
i period of his hospitalization; while
all ex-service men who suffer from
! disabilities whether of service origin
or not are entitled to free nospital
izotion and treatment provided there
are vacant beds in the hospials, but
they are entitled to pay if the disab
ility is not service-incurred.
And so we have enumerated some
of the multifold benefits bestowed
by the Government upon the men
who were ready to bestow their all
had need required.
LOWRY FARM SOLD

beginning immediately preparations
for the 1926 cotton crop.
Mrs. L. A. Culver, Jr., of Veeders

said, and are desirous of coming to

was more than $4,500, it was learned
t nd the farm was bought by Mrs. L.
A. J. Ivey, of Donaldsonville.
A number of smaller sales also
have been closed, Mr. Allison stated
today, the details of which will be
'ready for announcement later in the
, week.
All together these various sales to

dollars. ,
I Something more than 200 acres of
Sumter County and Webster county

i Stapleton for the planting of to-
■ bacco next year, and there is about
j the same number of acres pledged,
but conracts had not been closed to

"Honestly, in all my 15 years of

known of a medicine that compares

of Nurse M. E. Chappelle.
"Time and again I have recoir. •
I mended Tanlac and always with
■ surprising results. Some time ago
my mother complained of being
I generally run down and on the

I had no appetite, her stomach was

I bowels were most irregular.
| "Tanlac came to her aid at once,

I that she began to eat with the
greatest relish, and made the di

once more. In a short time she was
well, happy and strong, and al
though over 80 years of age she is
now vigorous enough to look after
her household duties and. go out

praise Tanlac and consider it the

it can also do for you. Tanlac is
