LOCALS BROUGHT IORWARD.
The U. S. Civil Service Commission
has announced an examination for the
county of Coweta, to be held at New
nan on June 12, 1916, to fill the
position of rural carrier at Newnan,
and for vacancies that may later
occur on rurul routes from other post-
offices in Coweta county. The exam
ination will be open only to male citi
zens who are actually domiciled in the
territory of a postoffice in the county,
and who meet the other requirements
set forth in Form No. 1977. This form
and application blanks may be obtained
from the postmaster at Newnan, or
from the IJ. S. Civil Service Com
mission at Washington, D. C. Appli
cations should be forwarded to the
Commission at Washington at the
earliest date practicable.
County School Superintendent Pen-
dergrast authorizes The Herald to
state that on Saturday, loth inst., all
teachers of the county will be paid
their salaries for February and March.
The county has a balance of $10,356.67
belonging to the school fund now to its
credit in the State Treasury, brought
over from last year, and Superintend
ent, Pendergrast has been trying to get
it out, but without success—due, it is
said, to insufficient funds in the Treas
ury. However, at a meeting of the
County Board of Education on Tuesday
last it was decided to borrow enough
money to pay the teachers for the two
months named, in case the State
Treasury should not be in condition by
that time to honor the county’s draft
for the sum needed. Incidentally, it is
worthy of note that the teachers of
Coweta never have to wait longer than
a couple of months for their salaries,
and not often so long as that.
The Junior Reading Circle will hold a
fair and society vaudeville at the Elks’
hall next Friday afternoon and evening,
for the benefit of the County Club. The
fair will consist of a midway, with all
the usual attractions, such as ‘ The
Chamber of Horrors,” “A Trip to
Mars,” ‘‘A Picture Gallery,” ‘‘Flower
Show,” “Fortune Teller,” etc. There
will be also a grocery booth, a novelties
booth, a kitchen booth, and a Chinese
booth. Ice cream, candy, tea and sand
wiches will be sold. The society vaude
ville (in the eveing only) will consist of
songs, readings, music, and a short
play. Young and old are cordially in
vited. All will find plenty to entertain
and amuse, besides aiding a worthy
cause. Automobile parties from neigh
boring towns especially invited. Fair
opens promptly at 4 p. m.; vaudeville
at 8 p. m. General admission 10c. for
adults; 5c. fur children. Everybody
come and have a good time.
The following business was disposed
of at the regular monthly term of the
Court of Ordinary on Monday last, to-
wit:

Newnan Takes Opening Game.
(iritlin Now. nnd Sun.
The Lightloots dropped the first game
of the season to the team from New
nan. Guthrie was on the mound for
the home team, hut did not have his
usual form. Whitney, for Newnan,
twirled an excellent game and deserved
to win.
Newnnn scored in the first inning.
Griffin came back in their part of the
second. Newnan scored 3 in the fourth
nnd 4 in the fifth. The visitors secured
ten hits off Guthrie, while the Newnan
pitcher held the Lightfoots to only five.
The park was packed and jammed,
there being about 3,000 people in the
field. The stands could not accommo
date the immense crowd, and as a re
sult the spectators were all over the
field.
It was one of the biggest days in
Griffin’s history, showing that Griffin
and surrounding territory are imbued
through nnd through with the spirit of
the great national sport.
The big crowd present seems to war
rant the fact that Griffin hns won the
attendance trophy, a beautiful cup of
fered by President C. L. Bruner, of the
Georgia-Alnbamu league.
Young People’s Forward Movement
The regular meeting of the Young
People’s Forward Movement of the
First Methodist church was held last
Friday evening, at the residence of
Mr. M. B. Mooney. Mrs. Mooney is
ever ready to encourage aspiring youth
by throwing open her hospitable home
for their entertainment. Bursting buds
and radiant red roses, used in artistic
arrangement for decoration, were not
more beautiful than the bright young
people gathered together for mental
and spiritual uplift.
The meeting was called to order by
Mr. Win. Askew, the enthusiastic
young president. By a singular coinci
dence three of the lady leaders of this
society were delegates recently returned
from the convention of Sunday-school
teachers at Americus. One of these,
Mrs. T. E. Atkinson, was called on to
tell of the occasion. The talk was up-
usually interesting and inspiring, being
listened to with rapt attention by ev
eryone present. The message was sug
gested by an enlarged cartoon brought
from the convention picturing two rab
bits silting at ease, and two others run
ning at full speed, with the motto:
“Do not sit up and sit, but get up nnd
git,” reminding one of the necessity of
activity if any progress is ever made.
Transformed into words of Holy Writ
it means, “Be ye doers of the Word,
and not hearers only.”
The social hour was turned over to
Mrs. Mooney, who led the troop out on
the lawn, where long tables filled with
plutes of candy, whose appetizing odor
had already reached the regions beyond,
were soon changed into silvery sweet
ness “long drawn out,” amid happy
laughter and innocent mirth of boys and
girls in their teens.
"Oh, for ono hour of youthful joy!
Give back my fifteenth spring!”

NOT ENOUGH CHILDREN
ever receive the proper balance of food
to sufficiently nourish both body and
brain during the growing period when
nature’s demands arc greater than in
mature life. This is shown in ao many
pale faces, lean bodies, frequent colds,
mid lack of ambition.
For all such children we say with
unmistakable earnestness: They need
Scot!.'.-, Emulsion, and need it now. It
possesses in concentrated form the very
food elements to enrich tluir blood. It
changes weakness to strength; it makes
them sturdy nnd strong. No alcohol.

The above figures are correct. You don’t have to take our
Word for it. Ask Cashier Goodrum, of the Newnan Banking
Co. We don’t put on much style, or cut as many scallops
