HERMAN'’S
&
Friday aftemoon at a meeting at
the court house it was decided to
suspend all other business and keep
the stores closed Saturday morning
until the full amount was in hand.
It was with this grim determination
to make a desperate effort to put over
the county’s quota that every citizen
got busy, and by night the amount
needed had been reduced to less
than $40,000.
With resolute determination the
work was resumed Saturday morning
and about 11 o’clock every bell and
whistle in the city was turned loose
to celebrate the victory.
Terrell’s quota was $349,500 and
in the final count there had been sub
scribed $353,300. Of this Parrott
contributed $44,500, Sasser $26,880,
Bronwood $lB,OOO. Every other sec
tion of the county had a part in the
splendid work and all are to be con
gratulated on so heartily co-operat
ing with the leaders. The number
who subscribed to the bonds is 1.-
H2B.
Mrs. T. B. Raines and her commit
tees did valiant work in arousing the
women and gathering subscriptions.
Owing to illness in the family of the
chairman the amount raised by the
women cannot be given until the
next issue of The News. P
The Annual Session Was to Have
~ Convened in the Hospitable Town
| of Herod Next Week.
Owing to the influenza cases in the
county the Bethel Association, which
was to have convened with the Herod
Baptist church next week, has been
postponed indefinitely. This is a dis
appointment to all concerned.
Herod was preparing to entertain
the delegates and visitors with the
royal hospitality for which the little
town is noted.
- The Friendship Baptist Associa
tion, which was to have convened at
Macedonia today, has also been call
ed off on account of influenza. Rev.
T. M. Callaway has notified each
church of the change.
NORTH GEORGIANS BUY
LARGE TRACK OF LAND
North Georgians have bought of
Messrs. R. C. McCrea and R. W. Jen
nings 900 acres of land below Daw
son in the Fourth district, the con
sideration being about $20,000. The
deal was made through the Horsley
real estate agency.

REPORTS SHOWED MUCH ACTIV
ITY IN USEFUL WORK. A
- SPLENDID PROGRAM.
Mrs. J. G. Dean and her daughters,
Mrs. J. E. Morris and Mrs. E. C.
Paschal, very graciously received the
members of Stone Castle Chapter,
D. A. R, on Wednesday afternoon,
assembled for the regular meeting.
Appropriate devotional exercises,
carrying a dominant patriotic note,
preceded the business session. The
matter of fourth liberty loan bond
purchased by the chapter was first
taken up for consideration, and the
treasurer was instructed to make
payment. The ways and means com
mittee announced a peanut sale to
be put on as soon as practicable. In
the absence of Mrs. E. T. Jordan,
chairman of war work, the regent,
Mrs. R. E. Bell, gave the very cred
itable report. EKighty-seven towels
were donated by the chapter in re
sponse to the recent call of the Red
Cross for linen. The collection of
jelly will be sent to Fort McPherson
for convalescent soldiers. One of the
most satisfactory of the chapter’s
war activities has been the collect
ing of garments and shoes for the
Belgians. Mrs. G. W. Dozier, as
chairman, reported many donatjons,
which were promptly forwarded to
the relief headquarters. The regent
appointed Miss Mary Belle Irwin to
collect old kid gloves to be used in
making vests so necessary to the
comfort of aviators.
The national society is asking for
relics from this section to be placed
in Continental Hall. Mrs. J. S. Low
rey was asked to make this collee
tion.
The splendid program arranged by
Miss Louise McNulty was in the na
ture of a celebration of Columbus
Day, October 12, which has been
designated Liberty Day. The follow
ing interesting and instructive pa
pers were given: ‘“America Con
quers Encland Again in 1917-18,”
Mrs. T. C. Geise; ‘“America Saves
England,”” Mrs. J. E. Morris. An
original musical number was bril
liantly executed by the * composer,
Miss Florence Baldwin.
A delightful social hour followed,
during which elegant refreshments
were beautifully served, Mesdames
Dean, Morris and Paschal being as
sisted by others on the hostess com
mittee., The presence of several of‘
the teachers added greatly to the|
pleasure of the occasion. |

the very best farming sections in the

West, including such well-known ag
ricultural states as Texas, Oklahoma,
and Missouri, and in conversation
with The News man said that decid
edly the best cotton he had seen is
in Terrell county. Nowhere was this
crop as good as has been grown here.
Mr. Perryman also said that in
the section he traversed the corn
crop is almost a total failure, due to
continued drouth, and that both man
and beast will suffer.

SALTS IF BACKACHY
AND KIDNEYS HURT
!

Drink lots of water and stop eating !
meat for a while if your Bladder |
troubles you. j

|
When you wake up with backaché and |
cull misery in the kidney region it gen- |
erally means you have been eating too |
much meat, says a well-known authority.
Meat forms urie acid which overworks
the ki%neys in their effort to filter it*
from the blood and they become sort of |
paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys |
get sluggish and clog you must relieve}
them, like you relieve your bowels; re- !
moving all the body's urinous waste, |
else you have backache, sick headache, |
dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue |
is coated, and when the weather is bad !
you have rheumatic twinges. The urine f
ig cloudy, full of sediment, channels often |
get sore, water sealds and you are obliged |
to seek relief two or three times during !
the night. !
Either ecusult a good, reliable physi- |
efan at once or get from your Spha.rmmiat |
about four ounces of Jad Salts; take
o tablespoonful in a glass of water |
before breakfast for a few days and your |
kidneys will then act fine. 'g;ia famous |
Balts is made from the acid of grapes |
and lemon juice, combined with fihia, [
and has been used for generations to |
clean and stimuiate slu%iish kidneys, |
also to neutralize acids in the urine so it |
no longer irritates, thus ending bladder |
weakness. i
