What is life anyhow?
Politics is some tick.
Fried chicken coinin’ high.
What kind of a “slacker” are
you?
Pay-for The Weekly] out jof the
first bale-er-cotton.
If you was to die today where
would you go?
Let’s have sign boards on the
public roads.
Muscadines ripe—let’s go an old
time ’possum huntin’.
Pay up for The Weekly and
don’t be a “paper slacker.”
Let’s have sign boards on the
public roads, Mr. Henry County.
Hell will be done away with fif
ty years from now at the present
rate.
Your “Uncle Wes” Knight has
opened up an up-to-date meat
market in McDonough.
They use to have folks up in the
church, but they have Quit now —
it’s unpopular.
Say, Mr. Henry County, we need
sign boards on the public roads.
It’s against the law to do noth
ing now. You must work five
and one-half days each week.
One hundred years from now
all of us will be dead and in either
heaven or hell.
Some of you folks laughed at
‘"Observer” last year about his
perilous time talk. What about it
now ?
A penny or nickel in the church
or Sunday school collection on
Sunday, and from five to twenty
cents every day in the week for
coca cola, ice cream, cigars, gin
ger ale, Penn’s, Red J or Brown’s
Mule tobacco, and occasionally
five or ten bucks to see a moving
picture show in Atlanta, and yet 1
ail of us Baptist feel like we are
on the road to heaven, because
we cannot fall from grace, and us
Methodists, if we fall one day can
be saved again next day, and us
Presly,erians, just so we keep
Sunday are all right, and all of us
Hard Shells were saved before
we were born, and of course we
are all happy on the way and will
be a fine-looking crowd when we
get up to heaven. Some of us
Baptist, Methodist, Presbyterians
and Hard Shells don’t go to meet
ing, and some of us cuss, drink
and gamble, and some of us won’t
speak to our neighbor and we
don’t like the preacher, but we
are going to fix all that before we
die —if we have time.

What is a Branch
House?
The Branch House is the place in
the packing organization where what
the packing plant does for you is put
where you can use it
Both are the natural result of
growth and development in the living
thing they belong to.
Swift & Company Branch Houses
are located in distributing centers all
over the country. They are fitted
out with refrigerating equipment to
keep meat cool, sweet and fresh.
Each one is in personal charge of a
man who believes in what Swift &
Company is doing for people and
wants to help do it
They are directed by men who
have spent years learning how to get
better meat cheaper to the places
where it is needed.
Meat is shipped to the branch
houses direct from the packing plants
in Swift & Company’s refrigerator
cars, in such quantities that it can be
disposed of while fresh and sweet.
Your meat dealer comes here to
buy your meat for you —unless some
one else can treat him better then
we can.
So you need the branch house in
order to live well; and the branch
house and the packing plant need
each other,in order to be useful to you.

10 o’clock a.in. for authority to sell
at private sale the following de
scribed real estate situated in Up
son conuty, Georgia, to :wit:
70 acres of land off of lot No. 137
known as the Anslev place, which
is described in deed from
John P. Murray to John F.
Coneland, Guardian, dated Dec. 7.
1910, and recorded in deed record
19 on page 262 in the Clerk’s office
of Upson Superior Court. Said
land being in the 16th district of
Upson county, Georgia.
The above mud is the property
of my wards, Marguerite, Florence,
Ada, Willie and Minnie Lee
land. All of saul wards have now
arrived at the age of 21 years ex
cept two. Marguerite and Florence
Copeland.
The undivided two-fifths interest
of Marguerite and Florence Cope
land is to he sold for the purpose
of reinvestment in War Savings
Stamps.
The land has ceased to be profit
able and is not rented this year. It
is expensive in that taxes must lie
{laid on same and the buildings are
depreciating in value and need re
pairs now, and the purchase of
Savings Stamps will be a more
profitable investment.
A purchaser has been found who
has offered a good price for said
property, and authority will be
asked to make said sale at private
sale. This Sept. 3. 1918.
