Jacksonboro had a life of about 53 years. It was established in 1794, became the county seat of Screven in 1799, and died as a town shortly after the removal of the public buildings to Sylvania in 1847.

Erect- ed there were many substantial buildings including a bank, post- office, schoolhouse, and several hotels. When the people oppos- ?d the idea of bringing the Cen- , tral Railroad through Marion for fear it would demoralize the |community’s livestock and other quieter interests, the doom of Marion was thereby sealed. Growing Macon soon replaced Marion as the metropolis of Middle Georgia. When Jefferson¬ ville became the county seat of Twiggs after the War Between | (he States, Marion soon became a neglected shambles in the backwoods. Today its site may ( be located with difficulty bv prospecting historians.

Despite the accumulating years, certain individuals can’t b- called "old’" because they still have the vigor L and vitalily physical en ergv and lrenglh associated “ with * youth ‘ In 1900 a man was lucky if he Jived to be 50. Today, thanks largely to advances in medical science, most of us have a rea¬ sonable hope of living longer than our grandparents d d. . want those added years to be useful and enjiyabie. Today a person between 40 and 50 years is still considered young and can normally expect to live nvo or mori decades longer if he does not abuse his heakh. The health rules that held good before the age of 40 are not radically different in later life but the emphasis changes,'just as the body’s reserves and need change. There are certain gen¬ eral rules of health that peopl should be sure to follow as they grow older. These include: 1. CHECK UP. Peri-die r’"”S ical examinations are important at all ages and should neer be neglected aft c r the prime -f !if c is reached. Through these reg¬ ular check ups, the doctor ra' be able to dete t early signs of approaching illness and advis accordingly. 2 KEEPING FIT. Most people who have been active while young can continue to be active in middle age if they make a few common-sense adjustments. A certain amount of exercise is st.iP advisable to keep physically fit, and there is no reason why th middle-aged person should no' participate in sports if he ha c - always done so. It may be nec¬ essary, however, for him to mad ify his activities and not to en¬ gage in sports which are to strenuous. , 3. DIET. We may not need as great a quantity of food wiU advancing years as wh-n we were young, but the quality of the die* must be maintained. The bod' will always need the proteins minerals and vitamins suppli a d by milk, eggs, lean meats, poul¬ try, fish, cheese, fruits and veg¬ etables. Overweight mav be dangerous in middle and old age, and the person who finds h p V putting on to 0 much weight wit! the years should consult hie doctor.
