J A. GLAZE GROWS
21. POUND CABBAGE HEAD
Some weeks ago the Advance told
of a fine cabbage weighing 12 pounds,
which was brought in by an Emanuel
county farmer. Shortly afterward,
Mr. F. E. Wardlaw, of Montgomery
county, left with us a cabbage that
weighed 18 pounds.
Now comes Mr. J. A. Glaze, who
lives just outside the corporate limits
of the city, with a sure enough whop
per—it weighs 21 pounds. Os course
this puts Mr. Glaze at the head of
the class, but we would not be a bit
surprised if some other farmer comes
along with one weighing 24 pounds.

. HIGH SCHOOL
JOHNSON CORNER CITIZENS HAVE
CONFERENCE WITH SUPER.
VISOR E. A. POUND
Hpping that it might be possible
for them to build a county high
school and so qualify for the sum of
SI,OOO a year which the state boun
of education giVes to one school in
each county which comes up to cer
tain requirements , the trustees of
the Johnson Cornor consolidated
school held an important conference
Monday with supervisor E. A. Pound,
of the state board of education and
went thoroughly into a discussion of
this important matter
Mr. Bound informed the trustees
that it would be necessary for them
to have a four-year high school
course and the trustees found that
it would be impossible for them to
teach the tenth and eleventh grade
for the next four years. However, they
have this plan in mind and hope i
time to have a four-year high school
course at their school and that it
may be possible for them to qualify
for the country high school.
Mr- Pound and the state board of
ficidls are loud in their praise of the
splendid citizens of Johnson Corner
district who are wtorklng jhalrd to
build a splendid school for their
children.
Contract to hp Let
The trustees are advertising fan
bids for the new school building and
hope to let the contract for the erec
tion of the \buildfyg Satu*rdny. A
number of contractors have notified
the trustees of their intention to
submit bids. —Lyons Progress. *
EVERY PAPER IS READ
BY FOUR PEOPLE
Atlanta. —About 28.000.000 copies of
newspapers are now sold daily in the
United States, according to local pub
lishers who have been furnished with
statistics on circulation. Practically
everybody reads a newspaper.
Hence the average paper is read by
four persons. In many communities
in Georgia, as circulation managers
know, the average paper has an aver
age of five readers for every copy.
That should interest advertisers, de
clares an Atlanta advertising man.
Incidentally, one may wonder how
many times a paper is read after it is
thrown into the waste basket and be
fore it reaches the machine that makes
it into pulp that, in turn, becomes
strawboard or wrapping paper.
For who, except a rag-picker, it is
pointed out. can resist glancing at the
headline* of a newspaper, no matter
how old it may be or where it is dis
covered ?
Housewives, who in changing news
papers on pantry shelves stop to read
the headline or look at the pictures,
will vouch for that.
The correspondent of this news ser
vice has pointed out to newY sources
that one million people in Georgia
alone reads what he writes. The com
bined circulation of newspapers which
lie represents in his home state alone
to say nothing of outside territory,
estimating that four persons read
each newspaper, easily approximates
a million or more of the friendliest
friends. “The Gentle Reader.”
The board of tax equalizers are
busy at the court house this week
and hope to complete the first part
of their work by Saturday. A num
ber of tax returns have been raised
by the board and notices will be sent
all tax payers, .informing of the in
creases made by the board. The ma
jority of the taxpayers will accept the
raises made, but there will be quite
a number who will ask for arbitra
tion-
SC HOOL OF METHODS
AT BAPTIST CHURCH
A school of methods for the Daniel
Association was held with the Lyons
Baptist church Tuesday. June 14th.
Miss Barnard of Atlanta gave several
splendid and instructive lessons on
“Training for Leadership," while
Mrs. J. ('• Price of Vidalia gave a
lesson on “Stewardship and Mission;” i
both were greatly enjoyed by those I
present from the several churches
represented-
At noon all were invited to partake
of a most tempting dinner which the
ladies of the church had prepared
and served under the beautiful trees
in front of the church.
All went to their homes expressing
the wish that these get to-gether
meetings would come more often.

An Object of Charity
BHIHI^BBI
The records show that six men out of seven, at the
age of 65, are dependent upon their children, other rela
tives or charity for support.
Isn't there food for thought in that paragraph? Six
out of seven spent as they went —and wound up by liv
ing on charity. The fortunate seventh one no doubt
learned to save early in life, opened an account at the
bank, lived within his means and by saving regularly
had money working for him at a time when lie could no
longer work for money. Our bank wiM help you. Ask
yourself the question, where will you land at 65?
