BAD WEATHER By Menchew Macbeth CHAPTER FIVE She sat starring straight ahead of her out into the night, the twinkling electric lights swam about in a bed of tears that hung around her eyes. “I’m sorry” she cried to her inner self “I was an idiot to let my starved heart and empty stomach the best of me for even few minutes.” The old swept down completely whelming the brief she had known. The anew of how helpless and less a woman’s will power be against the world caused to almost swoon in her sad row of mind and body and “The irony,” she stormed to self, “of having a heart burnse with measureless zeal do good—and at the time flaming high with an ty aching loneliness.” After she excused herself she was a human, a lonesome woman her thirties and to endure added cross however slight ridicule or neglect from source was unthinkable. If was only where no one, ly no one sould see or hear she would get herself a hill top and flinging her arms up to the stars and the known winds she would cry, cry, and cry.

He looked at her hair to try seemingly find if that sympathy were a visiblle substance issuing its dark golden depths. And looked at her pale face to solve once again the mystery of a woman’s heart.

Published Weekly — Since 1901. About Dade County Bookmobile Service Bookmobile service began in Dade county in October, 1944. Since that time 23,453 books have been circulated throughout the county. The bookmobile visits all the schools of the coun¬ ty and has home and store de¬ posits in all communities. These books are free for all Dade coun¬ ty residents. The use of the books has been - good in most communities and there has been a gradual increase in the circu¬ lation of the books since the ser¬ vice began. Dade county is a part of a three-county library unit. The three counties, Walker, Dade and Chattooga, make up the Cherokee Regional Library. By cooperating with these other counties, Dade county is allowed to have the use of a bookmobile to travel throughout the county and to have the services of train¬ ed library workers. Also the Region has a bookstock of 18,- 000 books from which to draw. The schools’ use of the serv¬ ^ ice Hast year was good, 6,741 books having been circulated at the schools during the school term. Bookmobile service is not intended to take the place of a school library, but is used to supplement the existing school collection. In this way more reading material is made avail¬ able to the pupil and a greater variety of teaching material may be had by the teacher. The Lions Club formerly as¬ sumed partial responsibility for sponsoring the service. This sponsorship was discontinued in April. It is necessary now for some other agency or group to sponsor the service. If you or your community wish to make some kind of contribution to the continuation of the library serv¬ ice in Dade county, will you please get in touch with L. M. Allison, who is the local treas¬ urer of the Dade County Library Board, and tell him what your j group will be able to do? Of the 159 counties in Geor¬ gia, only a few have no public library service. Are we as Dade county citizens going to let our county go into the column of counties with no library service? A meeting of the Dade County Library Board is being called for Wednesday night, August 14, at 8 o’clock in the County School Superintendent’s office in Tren¬ ton. Any citizens who are in¬ terested in library service for Dade county are invited to at¬ tend. The Library Board is com¬ posed of O. C. Dyer, L. M. Al¬ lison, J. M. Carroll, A. W. Peck, Mrs. J. M. C. Townsend, Mrs. E. A. Ellis, and Roy Morgan. The bookmobile will make its regular schedule in the county August 13, 14 and 15.

Andrew of the Marine Recruiting Service would be in Trenton this Satur¬ day, August 10, to accept men for enlistment in the Marine Corps. i ,j - Sergeant Andrew, a veteran of the 1st Marine Division, will es¬ tablish temporary headquarters in the Post Office Building. His office will be open from 8:30 a. m. to 4 p. m. Men accepted at the tempora¬ ry office here will be taken to Atlanta at Government ex¬ pense for final enlistment. Af¬ ter enlisting they will be trans¬ ferred to Paris Island, S. C., for eight weeks recruit training. At the end of this training they will receive a ten-day furlough. In an interview with the Ser¬ geant he said, “Today, the Ma¬ rine Corps offers young men be¬ tween the ages of 17 and 30 the greatest opportunies to be found in the world. Not only do the Marines, America’s Modern Min- utemen, travel to many parts of the world guarding American lives and property, but they also are getting a chance to further their education while they travel. This is made possible through the excellent system of the Ma¬ rine Corps Institute.” And the Sergeant added with a gleam in his eye, “The high pay we’re get¬ ting now really adds up fast.” Before he left The Times of¬ fice, he expressed the belief that the young men in Dade county would make good Marines. “Any¬ way, we shall see Saturday whether or not these Dade boys are ambitious and want to go places,” he chuckled as he turn¬ ed to leave.

Prepare Houses Now For New Layers, Agent Advises This is the time to prepare laying houses and laying house fixtures for housing new laying hens, County Agent L. C. Adams said this week. Dirt and dust should be re¬ moved from the floor, walls, nests and other fixtures in the laying house and the floors should be scrubbed with lye water solution, he advised. Recommended solution for the lye-water solution is one ounce of lye to each gallon of water, the agent pointed out. Roosts, dropping boards or pits should be painted with corbolineum or gas tar to kill the mites. “When pullets are moved from outdoors into the confinement of the laying house during hot weather, the house should be opened to give maximum ventil¬ ation so that the pullets will not suffer from the heat,” he ad¬ vised. If pullets have not been vaccinated against fowl pox, this should be done. “Old hens should be replaced completely with pullets each fall if possible,” Mr. Adams declared. “Pullets will come into produc¬ tion and lay during the fall and winter months when egg prices are good. Hens completing a year of production will go out pf production during the fall and early winter months.” Head River News By Janie Sue Forester Miss Dorothy and Tommy Payne of Lakeview were week end guests of relatives here.
