Dear Sir: Here’s a mail order paint —there are several such —45 per cent of its solid part is barytes and whiting, and 35 per cent of its oil is benzine and water; the rest is zinc, lead and oil. Barytes, whiting benzine and wa ter have nothing to do with paint, except to make more gallons for victims to buy at $5 a gallon put on. $5 a gallon put-on will buy the best paint there in the world; here’s a paint, about half neither pigment I nor oil, imposed on the unsuspect ! ing. What is the r»raed>? What is the victim to 00? D 1 you favor a pure paint law in your State? North Dakota has lately passed such a law; it is worth, we presume, $5 a year to the average man. W’hat is wanted, of courae, is paint of such strength that 10 gallons will do a 10 gallon job and wear a long time. Devoe is that paint. Bhould counter |f»i's be put-down by law?

BrcSj Walker County Messenger, October 28, 1910 WOULD MAKE SONS HONORARY MEMBERS Columbus, Ga. —When the general confederate reunion is held at Little Rock next year the Georgia division will make the suggestion that steps be taken looking to the amendment of the constitution of the organiza tion so that sons of veterans can be come hoaorary members. In this way, it is believed, new life and en thusiasm will be injected into the ranks of the sons of Confederate Veterans, and at the same time the present camp organizations will be kept intact, the sons gradually taking the places of their fathers, so that when the last of the old soldiers shall have passed away the camps will continue in existence, fully or gauized and in smooth working or der, with the one mission of keeping alive the traditions of the confeder acy.

Commander Harper made his annual report to the veterans association and appeal ed to them for assistance in organ izing camps of sons of veterans and in encouraging the young men to at tend the meetings. Mr. Bale, who is solicitor general of the Rome circuit, made a really eloquent appeal in behalf of the sons of veterans, lie urged the camps of sons of veterans to build monuments to the women of the confederacy, for he pointed out that i when engaged in such laudable un dertakings as this the enthusiasm of the members is kept at a high pitch and they can accomplish wonders. A resolution was offered and a opted immediately after Mr. Bales’ peeoh, stating that it was the sense of the Georgia division that the necessity for such amendment to the constitution should be stressed at the general reunion at Little Rock next year.
