prettier than maids have any

Mavis, the sophisticated and
glamorous room-mate of Cecily,
is played by Miss Kathryn Ree

and glamorous in real life, and
who leaves a train of admiring
glances in her wake, where’er
she walks.
Hodgson, the gardner, is play

manages to make a minor role

up i soil fertility and the production of fine crops.
'll ■ cfficctiveness of a nitrogen fertilizer for top-dressing and
sic dre : >g depends almost directly on the proportion of nitrate,

last-acting nitrate—ready to work as soon as you apply it, rain or shine.
But that’s not all. Chilean Soda has sodium and minor elements, too.
bodium destroys soil acidity, substitutes for potash and calcium when
necessary, increase* the efficiency of nitrogen and helps plants make
better use of other plant foods.
Where the soil is too acid; where potash is dcfi ' ; eni or
where the available phosphate supply is low; where r crop
needs quick help: or where one or more of the minor ele

Experience, they say. is the best teacher, and 100 years of consis

nothing to compare with it for your top- JjdUiijF W

FLOYD STREET HOME
This comfortable home is in a most desirable section of Floyd Street.
It was completely modernized about four years ago. Here you will find
the charm of yesterday combined with the convenience of today. The modern
kitchen is large enough for a table and chairs as well as a snack-bar.
Opening off the kitchen is a large family or TV room. The dignified living
room suggests more formal occasions. There are four large bedrooms and
two baths. One of the bedrooms has been panelled in pine and can be
used as an office or den. The lot is ample in size, the garden attractive,
and there are two car-ports.
This is a delightful home for a family with several children, or it can
easily be converted into two apartments. And you will agree that the price
of the property is most reasonable. Call us for details.

Mr. Van Hom has also served
during the past school year as a
teacher at the Livingston School
where his interest in all athletics
has aided him in his work there.
He has been active as an official
in both football and basketball
and has been able through these
sports to leave an impression of
his Christian leadership on the
boys with whom he came in con
tact on the football field and

$300.00 for the group! Many in
struments have gone bad and
need repairs, many new instru
ments are needed, in fact it will
take around $3000.00 to finance
the Band this year. Their Bank
account is set up at Newton
Federal and Loan Association,
where it will be kept and safe
guarded for use of the Band
only. This is the only Musical
Education offered our young
people, which is reaching 100
young people. This medium is
far reaching, and many more
can be reached if the funds are
available. Yes, they have FAITH
IN US. The Band Parents Boos
ters Club holding meetings
and each one has given a book
for donations. The little forms
contain a place for YOUR Name,
the amount of your contribu
tion for use of the Band only,
and there is a stub receipt for
same. The Bank will keep all
this and every dime you give
will bring joy to you, when you
know you have helped make this
possible. Give a dollar, $5.00,
SIO.OO or a hundred dollars. Or
would you rather say this is my
one great moment to give a
SIOOO.OO and KNOW that I am
building for the future, and al
so for our pleasure at this time,
and our pride in seeing them
visit other towns where they
represent NEWTON COUNTY
AND VICINITY.
Maybe your boy or girl has
graduated and no longer in the
band . . maybe they are more
interested in something else than
playing in the band . . . but that
band is always their pride and
joy wherever they play . . . they
say “OUR BAND” .... and it
IS our BAND . . when you are
visiting another town with them
does your ehest not expand just
a little bit as they come march
ing along playing so beautifully?
Oh yes it does and you call at
tention to all your friends from
out of town that this is OUR
BAND . . . The City and County
takes great pride when they
work so hard and win Superior
Ratings ... we could give to
ward this also Mr. Mayor and
County Commissioner! It’s OUR
BAND .... all civic and pa
triot organizations and individ
uals should be given an oppor
tunity to make a contribution
large or small and KNOW you
had some part in making this
Band possible. Will you? If you
are not contacted by a member
of the Boosters Club . . then
call Mr. Joe T. Smith, their Di
rector, and he will tell you to
whom you can send your Contri
bution, or he will have some
body call for it. Come on let’s
make all Georgia sit up and take
notice when OUR BAND
MARCHES ALONG! THEY are

School on THE MAP for US . .
so this is the least we can do
for them . . . Give and give gen

We tripped down for just three
days to Daytona Beach last week
. . . and saw one MOON rise,
seemingly right out of the water,
that we shall never forget . . I
have an indelible gold picture of
it in my beautiful album of mem
ories, with it’s pathway of gold
glittering across the water right
to our feet. It made you feel the
closeness of God and His great
handiwork . . it made you want
to walk right down that path
way of gold across the waters
to that Golden city of the Moon!
Just wish we could show you
that picture we have in our
heart . . . and that moon was the
largest one we have ever seen.
Oh yes, we ate shrimp, and

and night. St aks hold first place
