OF CHATTANOOGA DIST. TO
BE HELD TUESDAY AUG. 19
President Harcourt A Morgan, of
. the University of Tennessee, an edu-
I cater who has done more thap any

quet, in Chattanooga August 19. The

time. The plans for the banquet were
announced this week by Spencer J.

The entertainment will he furnish

Chattanooga’s best singers will sing.
A Chatunooga band will furnish mu
sic throughout. Wives of Kiwanians

tanooga Automotive Trades Associ
ation, with every known variety of
automobile and accessory displayed
boa value of more than $1,000,000.

front of the auditorium just before
time for the supper to be spread. On
the interior, also will be displays of
Manufactured goods of special interl
est to the farmers and those who come
for the supper will find something in
teresting and profitable for every
minute they are in the city.
CENTRAL OF GEORGIA RY.
TO RECEIVE 15 MODERN
ALL-STEEL CARS IN AUGUST
Savannah, Ga. Aug 6, 1924—During
the month of August delivery of 15
all-steel cars, built by the Pullman
Company, is being made to the Cen
tral of Georgia, and the equipment is
being put into service as rapidly as

This purchase represents a consid
erable sum of money and it is in line
with the Central’s policy of continual
ly improving its equipment. The
coaches have a seating capacity of 82
passengers and weigh 139,000 pounds
each. They have all-steel vestibules
and the interior is finished in Mexican
mahogany. There are special ventila
tors in the roof and electric fans at
each end., Sliding screens and cinder
deflectors are applied to all windows

screened openings. Sanitary waters
coolers are provided so that the water
may be cooled without coming into
direct contact with the ice. Smoking
rooms are equipped with leather cov
ered seats and each coach has all of
the latest and most improved ar
rangements for the comfort and con
venience of passengers.
A feature of the equipment is the
solid rolled steel wheels with a brake

ment of brakes makes it stop smooth
ly and"quickly. The couplers are de
signed with friction draft gears and
friction buffers to insure smooth op
eration.

A Word To The Wise
“In March I was called to the bed
side of my sister in Brewton, Ala. She
was given up to die and was almost
dead .Talked in whisper. Doctors said
nothing but an operation would save
her and she was too weak for that.
Her color was yellow as a pumpkin
and she was filled with gas. That day
I heard of Mayr’t Wonderful Remedy
and worst and got a bottle for her. In
three weeks she was able to be about
and walked a mile to church. I am
praising your medicine to everyone.”
It is a simple harmless
preparation that removes
the catarrhal mucus from the intestin,

which causes practically all stomach,
liver and intestinal ailments, includ
ing appendicitis. One dose will con

Therefore, be it resolved, first, that
in the death of Sister Hale, the La

IN MEMORY
Os Mrs. T. B .Arnold, who departed
this life May 8, 1924, after an illness
of 3 weeks. She was survived by her
husband and one child and live step
children.
She was converted at the age of 15
and was a life-long member of Pea
vine Baptist church. She was a devot
| ed Christian and was loved by all who
I knew her. S'he was devoted to her
j church and community. She loved to
go to church but of late years she
had been unable to attend church reg
ularly. At the time of her death she
was seventy-five years of age.
I She told her loved ones that she
! was ready to go home and she wanted
; to go and we are sure she has gone
i where there is no sickness or death,
i She told her granddaughter and her
I neighbors once during her illness that
j the time one needed religion was at
; the time of death and she was prepar
i ed for that time.
| She is survived by four daughters,
' Mrs. J. N. Stephenson, Mrs. W. A.
i Stephenson, Mrs ,H. E Tipton and Mrs
I W M Wa!ie, and one son, C W. Ar
i nold. One daughter, Mrs. P. B. Steph
| enson preceded her to the grave.
) Funeral services were conducted by
J. R. McFarland at Rock Springs
church and interment was at Rock
Springs cemetery. xxx
IN MEMORY *-
On the morning of May 13, 1924,
just as the dawn was breaking the
death angel visited the home of Mr.
and Mrs. E. A. Smith and claimed for
its victim tiheir loving daughter, Cora j
. Mae. She had been in declining health
I since the removal of her arm in March
1922. Her condition never become se
rious until Friday before s’he died. The
deceased was a consecrated member
of Center Point Baptist church being
baptized by the Rev. C. W. Howard.
Cora Mae was born April 30, 190?,
being 17 years of age at the time of
her death.
Cora Mae was such a jolly girl al
ways having some fun or something
jolly to say to all her friends and
schoolmates. She is missed oh sd
much in the home. How we miss her
at church and Sunday school, but no
body misses her like her parents and
immediate family.
We sadly mourn her departure, but
not as for one (hat has no hope. We
know she is resting sweetly in the
arms of Jesus, where there is no more
pain or sorrow, where all is peace
and love.
