Savannah. —Following a postponed investigation held recently, Shadie Manning was held on charges in con noction with the shooting to death of Bob Carter, in the Black Ankle 'dis trict of the Ogeechee river. Carter was shot in a duel between members of opposing parties to a family feud, it is said, existing between tlio Man nings and Carters.

Americus. —James A. Walker, well known Americus man, lost his left eye in an accident while hunting in a field near Bumphead road, two miles north of Americus. A shot fired from ;the gun of Professor J. K. Mathis, city school superintendent, penetrated the eye and destroyed the sight com pletely, so that removal of the eyeball was advised. The operation was per formed, and Mr. Walker is expected to be fully recovered in a few days. Atlanta. —H. M. McGarity and W. T. Anderson, both of Savannah, Ga., ar rested in an automobile containing 128 quarts of whiskey, were bound over to the Fulton superior court under bonds of SI,OOO each on charge of vio lating the state prohibition law. The arrest of the men was attributed to the fact that the brakes on the automo bile failed to operate when they were crossing Whitehall at Alabama street. An investigation disclosed the w hiskey in the car. LaGrange.—A “get-together" meet ing of Troup county business men and i'jymera was held in LaGrange recent ly in the new Presbyterian church at which a banquet was served to about two hundred guests. The object of the meeting was for the purpose of creating a more co-operative spirit be tween the business men and the farm ers. Several interesting addresses were made along various agricultural lines and how business men could best aid the farmers. Dublin. —K. H. Linder, one of the best-known farmers of this county, died recently from a dose of carbolic acid taken by mistake. He got up be fore daylight to get some medicine he had in the house, without lighting a lamp. The bottle of medicine either had been removed after he had left it or lie had forgotten its exact lo cation, and he picked up a bottle of carbolic acid instead. He died before a physician could get to him. His fun eral will be held soon. Brunswick —Many women were drawn for jury duty for the January term of court here and for the first time in the history of this, one of the oldest cities of Georgia, women probably will appear as jurors. The jury commissioners, having concluded the revision of the jury boxes recently, under the supervision of the ordinary, proceeded to draw the jury for the next term of the superior court, with the result that many of the ladies of Brunswick, whether they would wish it or no, will have the oppor tunity of being called as jurors. How ever, it appears that it is optional with the women whether they will serve, but they must appear and be excused by the court from service. Atlanta. —A tragedy at the homo of 11. D. Oliver, than undoubtedly would have resulted in the death of three per sons was narrowly averted by the presence of mind of Mrs. Lott Warren. Mrs. Warren, a friend of the Olivers, dropped in to make an informal call and found Mrs. Oliver, her little daugh ter, Jeanne, and the negro cook, all in a semi-conscious condition caused by fumes from a gas water-heater in the kitchen. She saw' the situation in an instant, and without waiting to call for assistance, managed* Vo drag the almost unconscious forms out in to the open air on the front porch. Then she summoned a physician, hut when he arrived the victims of the gas fumes had practically recovered, ex cept for severe headaches and nausea. The doctor, after an examination de clared that had Mrs. Warren arrived a few moments later, death from as phyxiation would have resulted HENRY COUNTY WEEKLY, McDONOUGH, GEORGIA. c, mmm)y \ ——- .1, - BUILDING OF PUBLIC ROADS P ederal Government and States Have Completed 7,469 Miles in Fast Five Years. (Prepared by the United States Depart nient of Agriculture.) On June 30, 1921, t lie close of the fifth fiscal year since tlie passage of the federal aid road act, which is ad ministered by the bureau of public roads, United States Department of Agriculture, the states ,ynd federal government had completed 7,469 miles of road, and 17,977 miles were, under construction. Including the work completed on projects still under construction, the states have completed work which entitles them to draw on the federal treasury for $118,915,515. There is also a balance allotted but not yet earned on projects now under, construction amounting to $66,375,636. Of the two appropriations which,.have been made for federal aid there is now only $18,793,544 remaining unobli gated. Twelve of the states have ob ligated their entire allotment and sev eral others have only a small amount to their credit. During the last fiscal year the total of completed projects jumped from 1,077 to 7,469 miles, and the projects under construction increased from 14,- 910 to 17,977 miles. The money earned by completion of work lias grown from $40,097,881 a year ago to $118,915,515 at the end of this fiscal year. The amount earned during the year was $78,817,634, or nearly twice as much as the amount earned during the four years preceding' The new projects submitted dnring the year bring the total amount of federal aid obligated up to $247,956,- 156. as compared with $lO9 830,366. aM. f< ' .

At this rate It is ex pected that the small balance of $lB,- 000,000 still unobligated will be taken up in a very short time. The month of June was a record month in every way. The mileage of Completed projects increased by more than 1,200 miles, more than twice tire amount reported for the month of May. Funds allotted to work actually under construction increased by $13,- 670,925. COST OF HIGHWAY VEHICLES Government to Determine Expense of Operating Surplus War Road Building Material, What it costs the government to op erate motor vehicles engaged in road building is shortly to be determined through a system of operative records recently installed by the bureau of public roads, United States Depart ment of Agriculture. Out of the surplus war material turned over to the War department for distribution among the states, the bu reau has retained a large number of motor vehicles, which are used prin cipally on forest road work in the West. These motor vehicles are kept at various central points where shops are maintained for repair work. Complete records will be kept of all oil. gasoline and supplies of every kind used by each vehicle. Even the number of tube patches will be kept. Record will also he kept of the num ber of hours of shop work required; of days idle, and why; of distances Loadrare carried and the character of the loads; and the grdss income from the operation of the vehicles. The in formation thus obtained will be com bined with similar information from some of the states operating thagsiir plus war equipment turned ovgjto* thony jmrf A l **valuable tion*to tl»e K!u>wTeoge*OT the vcSj‘ qff hiehwav transport S ,-j (/ Hannieu, puril/ vejet.ble | LA pon ‘ narcot * c » aon-aicoholic. ■ Lll T wl~ y fJWMHBMHBWBBgffiBBPBMBMBBMB if!!

The Federal Bureau of Education includes in its rules to promote health among the Nation’s school children, the warning that children should net drink coffee or tea. The reason is well known. Coffee and tea contain drugs which stimulate and often over excite the nerves, and so upset health. The harm is by no means confined to chil dren, as any doctor can tell you. If health is valuable to childhood, it is valu able always. If harm to health should be avoided until bodies grow up, is it worth taking a chance with health when bodies have grown up? You can have that delicious and satisfying cereal beverage, Postum, with any meal, and be safe —you, and the children, too. There’s charm without harm in Postum. Postum comes in two forms: Instant Postum (in tins) made instantly in the cup by the addition of boiling Postum Cereal (in packages of larger bulk, for those who ; prefer to make the drinlj while the meal is blijing‘prepared; LjUt made by boiling fof 20 minutes.

An Insurance man of Indianapolis, who is also a Biblical student, was recently making his usual weekly calls in Irvington, and stopped at a residence to inquire of the young woman at the door about the birth place of her mother. She said that it was the same name of a town mentioned in the Bible. “Was it Jerusalem?” he asked. “No, but I am sure it was a town near there,” she said. “Well, then,” the man replied, “It must have been Antioch.” So in the evening when the mother returned home from a social function the daughter related the conversation that had taken place when the in surance man called. “It seems strange,” said the moth er, “but lie was right. I was born in a little town in Ohio by the name of Antioch, and nearby was another vil lage called Jersusalem.” —Indianapolis News. If a man knows a great deal, be is bound to tell it, either vocally or with the pen.
