City Pharmacy To
Have Opening
The City Pharmacy will have their
formal opening Saturday of this
week and are making some special
offers to customers.
T. F. Hardeman, who purchased the
City Fount und added drugs announces
that his stock is complete and he is
now filling prescriptions and has a
complete stock of drugs and sundries.
McCALLA BETTER
The many friends of Hon. Henry
McCalla will be glad to learn that he
is much improved and was brought
back home this week after treatment
in an Atlanta hospital. He will soon
be able to plead his cases in court and
more important, will get back on the
golf course again.
Golden Age of Labor
Probably at no other time in all Ids
tory was the lot of the laborer nearer
a “golden age" than it was In the Fif
teenth and early part of the Sixteenth
centuries. At no time were wages,
relatively speaking, so high, and at no
time was food so cheap. In England,
parliament made constant attempts to
reduce the wages, but they kept high
and filially became customary. Even
tually, of course, living costs mounted
and the laborer’s lot again approached
Its norm. But during the years of Ills
paradise the hours were short; eight
being the common day’s work; Lhe pe
riod of winter wages was brief, being
December and January; the rate was
Just as good whether the laborer was
employed for a day or a year; and In
some cuses he was paid for every day
including Ids Sundays and holidays off.

Wires for Telephone*
Just how rmioli business Is depend

the amount of wire for telephone

a great office building. In the Equit
able Trust building—36 stories high
more than 55,000 cubic feet of lead
covered cable, weighing 28 tons and
containing over 9,000,000 feet of wire,
were necessary for telephone facil
Ities. Other inside wiring amounted
to more than 1,000,000 feet. The Gray
bar building—29 stories high—has
more than 19,500 feet, of cable, weigh

tlds building amounts to more than

Poor Susie
ft was Friday and the pupils were
due to recite various things they had
learned during the week. Dorothy said
she would give a proverb, and when
her turn came stood up and solemnly
said, “Susie Adam forgets Susie
Adam.”
The teacher gasped and called her
back. “What on earth Is that?" “Quo
tatlon!” said Dorothy proudly. "Say
it again!" “Susie Adam forgets Susie
Adam.” “But," said the teacher, "when
did we have that?” “Monday." The
teacher turned to her diary and saw
for Monday: “Enthusiasm begets en

Court action was taken by both At

at 2 o’clock. Miss Elizabeth A ini and

:atin blouse with brown hat and her

mony an informal reception was held.
Assisting Mrs. Almand in receiving
were the groom’s mother, Mrs. T. E.

M rs. Horace King, Miss Louise
Alinand and Caroline Almand and

Animals and Reptiles
Worshiped by Mankind
It Is a fact that cows, on account
of their supposedly sacred character,
are nllowed to roam at will In India,
hut the utiimnls are venerated or re
spectod rather than actually wor
shiped. Real worship of cattle, how
ever, has existed ul other periods of
the world's history. It was common
among the ancient Egyptian!, who poa
sessed the cult of the Lull Apis. When
one representative of ..pis died, a
new hull was sought and specially edu
cated In sacred matters for four
months. Celebration of Its birthday
was held annually, with sacrifices of
white oxen, ami It wus unlawful for
women to go near It. Apis was sup
posed to have oracular powers, and
after death, was mummified. Another
animal that has received great ro*|iecl
has been the white elephant, which Is
believed, In Slum, to carry a dead
man's soul. It cannot be purchased,
and fenst9 are held for It and a
funeral when It dies. Hut perhaps
the most feared and respected of all
is the serpent. At Whyduh, In Africa,
there Is a serpent temple, and these
reptiles In many parts of Afrleu are
regarded as tncurnntlons of dead
relatives. ,
Worceater Annoyed by
Exuberance of Youth
One has but to delve Into biography
to discover ttiat even the great were
beset with human frailties Just like
less fatuous mortals. The daughter of
the poet Longfellow, In her memoir*,
tells how the children kept the com
munity on edge.
Longfellow’s neighbors did not In
variably Share Ids Indulgence toward
his children. The lexicographer, Wor
cester, was a next door neighbor In
Cambridge. A little |mnd. where the
children skated, lay between the two
place*. The boy*, of course, were
noisy, which was not minded at home.
But dictionary making Is not like
poetry and the dignified Worcester,
disturbed, frequently came down and
chased the children off his end of the
pond, ordering them. In words not to
lie found In Ids dictionary, to keep
their racket at home.

About two thoasand boys go to

Parents who wish their boys to be
interested in better farming, or who
wish their boys to get started with
better farming methods than their
dads did, or wish their boys to be more
interested in club work, or in agricul
tural education should see that their
boys get to make this trip.
This week at Camp Wilkins, at the
State College of Agriculture, will be
a great boost to the boys. They will
be well cared for in every way. The
trip will cost $8 to $lO for each boy.
All boys will wear overalls there the
whole week. Each boy carries his own
bed linens and neeesasry soap, towels,
tooth brush and paste.
