think of me.”
Ex-Service Men Doing Time.
Extension of the American legion
survey of ex-service men in penal in
stitutions in the United States has
begun in Georgia. A preliminary
survey taken of the state’s prisons,,
federal penitentiary, jails and campS
shows that 663 ex-service men are
now incarcerated for crime; 332 of
these men have filed claims for com
pensation for disability. Of this
number 126 have been awarded com
pensation by the veterans’ bureau.
The veterans’ bureau of the fifth
district has kept in constant touch
with these disabled men in the penal
institutions, all efforts having been

made to correct injustices that might
have arisen. This survey is based
on the contention that many such
m&n now serving prison terms are
not mentally responsible, as a result
of war injuries, and are imprisoned
when they should be receiving care
in the mental institutions. The
American legion does not intend and
will not request clemency for any
veteran who does not show mental

The Rotary club of Anderson, S.

expect to put this program over dur

Industrial Activity Shown.
Atlanta, Ga., January 10. —Things
continue to look mighty good
throughout the south, in the opinion
of Atlanta business men and the
heads of large manufacturing enter
prises here. They assert with con
fidence that 1924 will witness even
greater strides of southern, business
than 1923 at any time experienced.
That the high price of cotton is
not the sole reason and probably is
not the paramount reason for con
tinued southern prosperity is indi
cated by statements of officials of
the Federal Reserve bank of the
sixth district, located in Atlanta, that
the advance in the price of cotton
has been limited by reduced produc
tion. The Federal Reserve bank
statement says the sixth district,
composed of the states of Georgia,
Alabama, Florida, Tennessee, Mis
sissippi and Louisiana, will produce
nearly a half million bales of cotton
less this season than last.
CLiier agricultural activities than
the production of cotton have had
effect upon southern development
although cotton naturally is the back
bone of the south’s financial status.
Co-operative marketing, producing
in increasing, quantity other money
crops along with cotton, adoption of
advanced and improved methods in
farming and a determination, evi
denced among southern farmers, to
gain freedom from the handicap of
the one-crop idea, agriculturists
here state, all helped to make them
a big factor in advancing southern
business to its present fine position.
But other forces also, Atlanta bus
ines men say, are working for the de
velopment of the south, chief among
them increased industrial activity
and lack of unemployment through
the operation of mills and factories
at top speed.
Profit in Sheep Raising.
If the south, would rr'Mlaeo wool as
well as cotton, the textile industry
would soon be centered here, with
many woolen mills eager to buy the
raw product, as the cotton mill 3 ate
taking much of the south’s cotton
right at home, in the opinion of ag
ricultursts who are now advocating
sheep grazing on southern hills.
It is pointed out that the south is
especially adapted to raising large
numbers of sheep and the industry,
it is asserted, is a profitable one, the
sale of wool and of mutton and lamb
adding greatly to the incomes of
farmers.
The department of agriculture now
reports that under the existing tariff,
according to figures made public,
there has been dpring the last two
years a big increase in the number
of sheep, brought about by, trie stim
ulus of tariff protection and .the ac
tive demand fur wool..
But notwithstanding this increase,
the farm pi ice of sh,eep has risen
from the poverty.figure of $4.80 to
57.50 a head, and the, farm price of
wool has increased frpm an average
of 29 cents a pound in 1922 to 38
cents at the present time.
Leading farmers of the state who
have discussed the matter at the state
capitol point out that it would not re
quire a heavy outlay of money on the
part of the farmer to put a few sheep
to grazing on his idle land, and in a
few years there would be many sheep
in the state and in the south and a
good increase in income from the sale
of wool, which now is bringing a
good price.

Winder Lawyer Will Pass on the

Col. H. 11. Chandler, of Winder,
who has been appointed auditor in
the case of W. T. McGee versus
Sheriff E. S. Garner, is taking tes

Mr. McGee was former deputy
sheriff under Sheriff Garner, and
the latter dismissed his chief deputy
unceremoniously. The law suit grew
out of the separation, and owing io
the intricacies involved an auditor
was appointed to take the testimony
and compile the facts.

The case was called Thursday in

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies Are Using
Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur
Hair that loses its color and lustre,
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless, is caused by a lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her locks dark and beautiful,
and thousands of women and men who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade of hair which is so at
tractive, use only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition of other
ingredients by asking at any drug store
for a bottle of “Wyeth’s Sage and Sul
phur Compound,” which darkens the
hair so naturally, so evenly, that no
body can possibly tell it has been ap
plied. You just dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. By morning the gray
hair disappears; but what delights die
ladies with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur
Compound is that, besides beautifully
darkening the hair after a few applica
tions, it also brings back the gloss and
lustre and gives it an appearance of
abundance.

Quart of Water
Cleans Kidneys
T I
Take a Little Salts if Your Bac,.
Hurts, or Bladder is
Troubling You
No man or woman can make a mis
take by flushing the kidneys occasion
ally, says a well-known authority. Eat
ing too much rich food creates acids,
which excite the kidneys. They become
overworked f/om the strain, get slug
gish and fail to filter the waste and
poisons from the blood. Then we get
sick. Rheumatism, headaches, liver
trouble, nervousness, dizziness, sleep
lessness and urinary disorders often
come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache in
the kidneys, or your back hurts, or if
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of
sediment, irregular of passage or at
tended by a sensation of scalding, begin
drinking a quart of water each day,
also get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take a tablespoon
ful in a glass of water before breakfast,
and in a few days your kidneys may act
fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, com
bined with lithia, and has_ been used
for years to flush and stimulate the
kidneys; also to help neutralize the
acids in the system, so they no longer
cause irritation, thus often relieving
bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; makes a
delightful effervescent lithia-water drink
which everyone should take now and
then to help keep the kidneys clean
and active and the blood pure, thereby
often avoiding serious kidney complica
tions. By all means have your physi
cian examine your kidneys at least
twice a year.
