Womankind Is to
Retain Her Little Toe
CHlCAGO.—Announcement had
been made that at a special clinic
of the National Association of Chi
ropodists today a number of wo
men would submit to the amputa
tion of their fifth, or little, toes. Os
tensibly, the idea was to do away
with annoying corns, but the real
reason was to enable them to crowd
their feet into smaller shoes.
However, there was no general
amputation. Dr. John Keniston, of
Chicago, a chiropodist for 30 years,
arose at the opening session and
sounded a solemn warning against
sacrificing the little toe.
“Cutting off your little toes will
leave the fourth toe unprotected,”
he said. “Nature has provided the
little toe with an especially tough
skin to protect it, but when it is
cut away it leaves the tender mate
next to it unprotected and you are
certain to have much trouble.
“Furthermore, with the loss of
the little toe you will lose your
balance and will limp the rest of
your life and undermine vour gen
eral health.”
BAPTIST MINISTER, OF AR
KANSAS ADVERTISED TO
SPEAK WEDNESDAY.
Dr. Sam Campbell, pastor of the
Second Baptist church at Little Rock,
Ark., is advertised to speak at the
court house tomorrow (Wednesday)
night at 8:00 o’clock, “to give the
truth about the Ku Klux Klan and
law enforcement.” An advertisement
announceing his coming appears else
where in The News.
Dr. Campbell is represented as a
forceful and eloquent speaker, and no
doubt a largc crowd will turn out to
hear him. The ladies and boys and
girls as well as the men are invited
to be present, says the advertisement.
The Ku Klux Klan is a secret order
that is much in the public eye, and is
said to have a large membership
throughout the country, especially in
the south and west.
Resolutions in Memory
Of Late Mrs. H. L. Pierce
Adopted at Annual Meeting of Young
People’s Union at Lumpkin July 28.
God in His infinite wisdom has seen
fit to call to His home above our be
loved superintendent of the young
people, Mrs. H. L. Pierce, of Parrott,
Ga., the sad event occurring July 28,
1922. She was enthusisatic, energetic,
consecrated, untiring always in her
work with the children of Summerhill
Association. She loved every one of
them, but her hobby was boys.
Realizing our loss we wish to sub
mit the following resolution:
1. That we shall continue the work
she so nobly began. !
2. That we strive to emulate her
unselfish devotion to the Master’s ser
vice.
3. We shall cherish her memory
and pray God’s direction in choosing
her successor.
4, That a copy of these resolutions
be spread upon the W. M. U. minutes,
a copy sent to her family and one to
the local newspaper for publication.

Hay Presses, Rakes i e
and Wag Ons ROYAL JUNIOR HAY PRESS
We carry a good stock of all wanted farm machinery and implements and call your attention
to these listed below:
The Fairbanks Z type gasoline engine has proven itself to be the most economical farm engine made. It is the engine
to use with your peanut picker; to pump water, to saw wood, to bale hay and to operate your ensilage cutter. Simple
in operation and requires the least amount of fuel.
The Royal, Jr. Hay Presses are the most substantial and satisfactory hay presses on the market. Combining sim
plicity, strength, large capacity and light draft. Baling the hay crop is a pleasure with such a machine.
We sell the Adriance Mowers and Rakes. These machines save time, horses and money in harvesting your crops.
They are the simplest in construction, most substantial, have lightest draft and are easiest to operate. -
Wagons made especially for use in this section— The Sunny South. In our years in business we have found no bet
ter wagon to offer the farmers in this terntory. The best thoroughly seasoned oak and hickory is used and the iron
parts are thoroughly tested to stand the heaviest strain.
