D. service would prove either economical or practicable. During the winter months there is hardly a public road in the county that would be passable with an automobile. If Uncle Sam is forced to make re trenchments let him begin on lines that will not affect the prompt delivery of mail to the people of the rural commu nities. Query? If Georgia is already a pro hibition State, why so much wrangling in the Legislature over this question? Why not enforce the Inws already on the statute books? Another prolific subject of controversy is that of educa tion and the pny of school teachers. And now a clamor is being raised in the legislative halls for free t-chool books.

Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 7. —An important ruling has just been made by Commis sioner J. D. Price, of the State De partment of Agriculture, following a conference with the leading millers and brokers of Atlanta and other sections of the State who handle flour. At the riquest of these gentlemen, who stated that they had large stocks of flour sacks on hand already printed, an extension of sixty days was allowed before the department will begin en forcement of the pure food laws relat ing to bleached flour. This ruling means that on and after Oct. 1 every barrel, sack or package of flour sold in Georgia, which is bleached by any process or artificially matured whereby the natural color is changed in any manner, shall be clearly and con spicuously labeled to that effect in com pliance with the pure food laws. The ruling further r> quires that each pack age of such flour shall have printed upon it in letters at least one inch in height the word "Bleached," and this word must be followed i y a statement as to the process used. In other words, the expression "Bleached artificially," or "Bleached by chlorine," must be printed underneath the word "Bleached." Notice is given that, be ginning on the date named, any flour found in the State not so marked will be dealt with according to the pure food laws. The setion of the department iB hased upon the pure food laws of the State, which prohibit the use, without so stat ing on the package, of any process de signed to cover up inferiority in grade. It ia said that flours bleached by this process have the appearance of 95 per cent, patent flour. It is also claimed that the sale of bleached flour without so indicating it has hurt the business of the smaller millers of Georgia, who are unable to put in the expensive bleach ing plants.

Is it really a mud-hole and a breeding place for disease that the pigs seems to enjoy on a hot day, or is it the water that attracts them? As long as we like hog meat (especially ham and ba con) as much as we do, we are not go ing to admit that a hog doesn't like clean water better than filth. Water, except to drink, is not necessary for a hog, if he has shade; but clean water to wallow in is good for him. Why not i provide a wallowing vat that can be : cleaned out occasionally? Too much I trouble? Well, we have known men I who thought it too much trouble to take 1 a bath. —The Progressive Farmer.

The Chevrolet Motor Company has once more doubled its manu facturing facilities, factory organization and production in the num ber of Chevrolet Cars. These great increases are the results of modern factory methods and the installation of special machinery throughout all Chevrolet plants. c. But the above is not alone responsible for our radical price reduction on 1916 Chevrolet Cars. H Our price reductions are also due to the fact that for years we have devoted our time, energies, and best thoughts to the manu facture of “FOURS.” We believe in “FOURS.” We build “FOURS” —the safe, simple, cheap to operate, thoroughly tried and proven CHEVROLET (Valve-in-the-Head) “FOURS.” We Build Them in the Interest Of the Consumer C, The retail dealer must sell on a narrower margin; the distributor must sell on a much narrower margin; and the manufacturer must sell on a very much nar rower margin to enable the consumer to secure an honest car at so near a one hundred per cent, value that he will not suffer a violent shrinkage in the value of his car when the “announcement period" arrives in the very middle of the natural riding season. c The above frank statements give the real reasons for our great reductions in 1916 prices; —and note, the cars have not been cut a single hair-line in quality. «L Chevrolet cars are just what their builders have dtsigned them to be —high- class, fine, luxurious. They have no superiors in hill climbing ability, and few, at any price, exceed them in speed performance. Newnan Auto Company Corner Spring and LaGrange Streets. NEWNAN, GEORGIA. Is Sickness a Sin?

"0, Think of the Home Over There,” is the sweet refrain of a popular hvmn. We don’t want to throw any cold water on the efforts of this pious poet, but we do wish he hsd directed his ener gies to the improvement of the home down here. When a man or woman thinks of the "home over there” so much that the home below the clouds gets but little attention, we think that kind of piety is not practical. Think of the home that you occupy, and try to make it better, happier, and purer. The Home over there is in better hands, and won’t need your attention until you get there. During Joseph Choate’s early prac tice he was opposed in a certain case by a hot-tempered attorney, who pos sessed more brawn than mental acumen. In the progress of the case Choate’s adversary wholly departed from his self-control, and threatened physical hurt to his opponent. “I can whip Bix like you,” asserted the lawyer. Choate looked at him with a profound and calm contempt. “When I was a boy,” he returned, “my father owned a bull. He was a wonder to fight. He could whip all the cattle in the neighborhood, and did it. But at that,” concluded Choate, "he couldn’t win a lawsuit.” In nearly every case boys who bring sorrow and disgrace upon their pa rents are those who are allowed te run on the streets at night. With the Bhades of night to a boy comes the op portunity for bad associations that do not temot him in the broad light of day. Evil doesn’t i-talk abroad at noonday, and hence a boy is not apt to come in contact with it with the sun at meridian. Keep your boys off the streets at night —or, rather, safelv sheltered in the home nest, where evil influences never enter to lead them astray. One Saturday a crcwd of childri n were playing war in the back yard Some were English soldiers, some French, some German. One little girl, who was told she was too small to play, began crying audibly and kept it up in spite of all they could do, and even af ter the warning; “If you don’t shut up mother will hear you and make you come in the house.” Finally the diflfioul'y was settled by a bright boy of 10. "Oh, let her bawl,” he counselled. "She can be the widows and orphans.” —Everybody’s Magazine. When a man's sins find him out they are apt to hang around until he comes in again. When some won-.en move in society they create more or less friction.
