LA PROBLEMS
L. * AND SOLUTIONS
Dear Jim,
I would like to know about your
views on cornice boards for win
dows. I am undecided as to whe
ther or not I should use them.
Mrs. C. B,
Warner Robins
Dear Mrs. C. 8.,
First of all, I would say that
there are no set rules on the use
of cornice boards.
My personal opinion is that
some type of top treatment should
be used on every window that has
draw draperies. The purpose for
this is to cover up all traverse
rods and drapery fixtures when
draperies arc opened.
These top treatments may be in
the form of cornice boards, swags
and pendants, or dozens of other
treatments in keeping with the
decor of your particular room.
This is a good place to let your
imagination and originality go
wild. The window that is just a
little bit different from the one
next door is the window that cre
ates the most interest.
Remember our custom drapery
department when shopping. We are
drapery specialists. Let me custom
design and make sketches of dra
peries for your room. Each job
has a personal touch designed just
for you.
Remember, also, that my interi
or decorating services are fre<
when you shop Stanley Furnitun
Company in Perry. Call for ai
appointment in your home today.

Chamber Achievements for Last Year
Outlined at Kiwanis Club Meeting
Efforts of the Perry Chamber of
Commerce in tourist, industrial,
retail and agricultural promotions
were outlined by chamber repre
sentatives appearing before the
Perry Kiwanis Club Tuesday.
W. K. Whipple, chairman of the
Tourist Committee of the Cham
ber, said all motels, restaurants
and service stations are coopera
ting to attract more tourists to
Perry and develop “the biggest i
industry in Perry.”
The capital investment of the
tourist business in Perry is more
than two and a half million dollars
at present and another million dol
lars investment will be made in
the next year, he said. The tourist
business employs more than 250
people and has an annual payroll
of SBOO,OOO, he said. Tourists, per
car, spend IV4 million dollars in
Perry each year, he added.
Signs and Brochures
The tourist committee has re
ceived $12,000 from the coopera
ting business owners and have
spent this money for signs, bro
chures, distribution of brochures
and for a personal trip of a Per
ryan to place the brochures in im
portant places in Florida.
E. H. Cheek said the chamber
annually contributes to the county
steer show and awards prizes and
awards to outstanding young far
mers through the school programs.
He said Perry needs processing
plants and the chamber welcomes
suggestions as to how this lack can
be corrected.
Malcolm Reese, chairman of the
industrial committee, said efforts
for more industry have continued
during the year and some pros
pects can be classified as “active”.
The chamber believes Perry needs
more diversified industrial pro
gram and this city offers an in
dustrial park for prospects to con
sider as sites.
Retail Store Activity
J. M. Gooden, secretary-manager
of the chamber, reported on the
activities of the Merchants Com
mittee, which he said had 28 mem
bers contributing to its promo
tion funds. He said this committee
is one which had three good pro
motions last year.
He said Perry is receiving about
10 newcomer families a month,
as compared to about 20 new fam
ilies a month about a year ago.
The chamber now has 126 mem
bers, and there arc about 25 places
in Perry “who ought to be mem
bers,” Mr. Gooden reported.
Glen Van Fossen, president of
the chamber, introduced those who
participated in the program. J. F.
Leonard Jr. was program chairman
and introduced Mr. Van Fossen.

MIGRAINE
HEADACHES
, e BY DR. EMMETT N. POPE
Is migraine or “sick head
ache” upsetting you? Do you
r . feel like butting your head
3 i against the wall for relief?
Frequently, you feel wonder
-1 ful between those excruciating
n attacks. As time passes, you
n may notice circulatory or di
gestive disturbances or a dull
headache or a stage of extreme
' well-being preceding these at
>- tacks.
You notice a severe pain of a
sharp shooting character locaV
c ized mostly in either the fron
l; tal, temporal or occipital por
»f tion of one side of the head,
a Further, the attacks seem to be
r getting more frequent and more
’ severe. You may notice intoler
, ance to light and sound, inca
ia \ pability of mental exertion and
of nausea.
jr Chiropractic is almost a spe
d- cific for migraine in that it
searches for and removes the
• cause. If your headache seems
to be migraine, consult your
chiropractor. Remove the cause
te and end those torturing pains.
