As a forerunner of the second cam
paign to be made in Baldwin county-
.o raise funds for the American Red
’ross, a meeting was hold at Uni :n
Point school house Friday night and
or ntoie than an hour the large audi-
nce listened to a number of interest
ing addresses made in behalf of the
rent humanitarian organization.
The meeting was called to order by
irs. Harper P. Tucker, president of
the Union Point Community Club,
and following the anno, ncement of
h • ■ opening of the meeting, Mrs. Guy
Torrance, secretary of the club, was
ailed upon to read the reports of the
last club sessicn. The report read by
the secretary was in every way cred
table and showed that the club mem
i>trs were wholly united in ilieir ef
brts to accomplish things wortli
while. —
As winner of the first prize in the
tffer made by the Milledgeville Wom
an's Club to the community in Bald
win countyi making the best report of
the work accomplished, Mr. Tucker
-pad a paper containing a record of
the activities of the organization at
that place. This report was a record
dating back to March 4th, the day the
club was organized, and since that
ime the members have made nearly
four hundred pieces of Red Cross gar
ments, excelling any one community
club in the county and no do.ibt com
paring favorably with the foremost
organizations of this kind in Georgia.
The first speaker to be introduced
at the meeting was Dr. E. A. Tigner,
county superintendent of public
schools. During the course of his ad
dress he Illustrated the teachings of a
number of well perpared posters con
taining reproductions of famous paint
ings pertaining to the wonderful work
of the American Red Cross, which
feature proved Impressive to 'the au
dience present. Following his ad
dress he distributed a number of fold
ers containing important facts regal
ing the work of the great world-wide
relief organization.
Other speakers taking part on the
program carried out at the meeting
were .Mr. A. J. Carr. Mr. Charles H
Bonner, Miss Lora B. Aide, head of
the domestic science department of
the Georgia Normal and Industrial
College, and Miss Sue C. Clcaton,
principal of the rural school depart
ment of the local college for girls.
These addresses proved inspiring to
all those present and everyone left
the place with the full belief that no
lack of interest would be shown in the
Union Joint community in the matter
of raising funds for the second drive
of the Red Cross.
In conclusion of the meeting Mrs
Tucker, the club's president, called
upQn the members to extend a rising
vote to those having gone out from
Milledgeville to attend the event,
which marked the beginning of ap
peals to the people of Baldwin county
to be in readiness to do their part in
making an appropriation for the Red
Cross fund campaign which is to be
gin next Monday morning. May 20.
It is rnderstood that Baldwin coun
ty will be called upon lo raise $3,000
I for the benefit of the Red.Cross dur
ing the week of May 20th to 27th and
every man, woman and child who is
able to make the smallest contribution
will be asked to take part in the task.
In one cf the fastest games of base
mil played on the diamond of the
leorgia Military College this season
vas witnessed Saturday afternoon,
the cadets completely shut out the
visitors in a score of 2 to 0.
“Fron7"ttie~beginning of the game it
was plainly evident that no easy po
ng would he experienced by either
of the two ball teams and it was not
until the fourth inning that a single
score was made by either side. Eas
terling scored at this time and sale
-un to first was entirely due to an er
ror Mumford, Tech High’s short stop
After the fourth inning, three times
he two teams went to the bat again
vithout either side putting a counting
igure on the scoreboard and while
he local cadets showed greater
.trength in both fielding and hitting
le visiting team had stores of gin
ger of the lasting quality with them
In the eighth inning the military
boys put their second man over home
plate. In this instance the score was
0 hard to decide on as to bring abort
1 real pleasant feeling on the part of
he umpire in knowing that this one
run was not necessary, in settling the
question as to who won the game.
The score by innings was as fol
lows:
Tech High-School 000 000 000—0
M. C 000 100 Olx—2
Batteries were: Smith and Lyle;

medicine fora week, 1 could see it was doing me good. 1 had been weak;
nervous, and it made me feel stronger, and I’m not a bit nervous now. My bad
all right, and my arms and legs do not ache. And my appetite is good again
Before I started using Ziron I wouldn’t rest at night, I was so tired feelings
felt worn out. I have used nearly the whole bottle and now I sleep fine ev
