At a meeting of the directors of the Georgia-Alabama League, held here yesterday, Griffin was awarded the Sel ma franchise for a cash consideration, and the league was reorganized on a six-club basis, with the following cities: Griffin, LaGrange, Newnan, Rome, An niston and Talladega. The league adopted a 60-day playing season, to open May 6, and a salary limit of $75 a month, including manager. The player limit was fixed at twelve men, the same as last season. The president was au thorized to have a schedule drafted. The league as it now stands is more compact than last season, and mileage expense is greatly cut. With the dropping of Selma and the addition of Griffin, Newnan enjoys the distinction of being the “hub” of the circuit, and for this reason should finish the season successfully. A keen rivalry has already been established with La- Grange, and now Griffin becomes competitor in the three-cornered race. The jump to Talladega will be broken by games with Rome and Anniston en route. At a meeting of "fans” held in the court-house Tuesday night Messrs. J. T. Williams, T. J. Fisher and T. S Parrott were elected directors of the local association. Mrs. Geo. J.

At a meeting of laymen and pastors, held at LaGrange on the 10th inst., to which all ihe pastors of the Western Association were invited, it was agreed to try to put on in our association what is eailed ihe layman’s team work. It is a work in which some earnest, active laymen go to the various churches on their meeting days and talk about the work of the kingdom. Being laymen, they can appeal strongly to our laymen. Of course, they cannot go to a church that does not want them, and will not invite them. So, if you would like to have them visit your churches, you must write the chairman of the group of churches to which your church be longs and ask that he arrange to have the laymen come to your church, and indicate the time you would like. It would be well to have them come on your regular meeting day, have it well advertised, and plan for an all-day meeting. These meetings would put new life into our association. No col lections are to be taken, but informa tion and inspiration will be brought which will help all the church work. We hope that we can, through this team work, visit all our churches possi bly before our State Convention. This work can begin at any time arrange ments are made for it. The women workers in the association are invited also to attend at these meetings and encourage the sisters in the Master’s service. The following are the groups of churches, and the names of chairmen in charge of the work in the various groups— First district — Rev. J. W.

The old familiar “gee! haw!” is now heard in every field.

The Liver Regulates the Body—A Sluggish Liver Needs Care. Someone has said that people with chronic liver complaint should be shut up away from humanity, for they are pessimists and see through a “glass darkly.” Why? Because mental states depend upon physical states. Bilious ness, headaches, dizziness and consti pation disappear after using Dr. King’s New Life Pills. 25c. at your druggist’s. LONGSTREET. Rev. J.

Some of our farmers are still picking cotton, some are sowing oats, while The stomach is the fuel box of the “human motor.’'. Food well di gested supplies the material that keeps the furnace fired up, and physical energy sustained. Did you ever see a big battery of dynamos at work, supplying electri cal energy that moves great lines of railways, and lights great cities, and stop to think how powerless they would be if the great generator was not fed the proper fuel ? Suppose the engineer would say, “All this coal I am using is costing entirely too much; I must econo mize and use less of it, or else get a much cheaper kind.” And what if he did; what would be the results?— lights would flicker and go out, trol ley cars would grind along slowly, or probably stop still altogether. You see there would not be the proper ENERGY; an so it is with the human stomach. You cannot cheat it, and expect it to keep on supplying the same energy. Now, of all times, this stomach of yours needs undiminished nourishment. You must have a strong body, and a clear brain; because an adjust ment to new conditions makes larg er drafts on brawn and brain. You cannot have sharp wits on an eco nomical stomach, or tense muscles with an under - nourished body. Meat is one of the greatest of all tissue builders; one of the greatest of all fuels to keep the human fire box energized. Our Western meats are full of just the energy and nour ishment you need. Fresh, firm, prime and delicious. Direct your methods of economy if you must, but don’t include your meat bill— for curtailment in that direction is FALSE economy. 0 Sims Sanitary Market NEWNAN, GEORGIA.
