Louise Baker Is
Sunshine Club
Honor Member
The Boys’ and Girls’ Sunshine club
has its first honor member. Louise
Baker, of Atco, has written her six
teenth letter to us this week, and she
has had five of her contributions
printed, one more than the four re
quired for honor membership. So we
are sending her a ceritficate and our
congratulations. This certificate will
be bordered by a number of circles
in which our honor member can paste
her “quest badges” when she earns
them. We want to tell you about these
“quest badges,” which will be| for
honor members only.
They will be in four colors, blue,
yellow, green, and red. We will tell
you each week about one of these,
and will give you a new “quest.”
When an honor member has written
us his answer to any four “quests” of
a certain color group, he will receive
a badge of that color to paste on his
special certificate. You who expect to
become honor members may save any
of these “quests,” if you wish, and
answer them after you have won your
special certificate. There will be a
new one each week.
The first one will be of the blue
group, which represents intelligence
Here is the “quest”: Describe some
thing interesting or beautiful in the
world of nature that you have watch
ed carefully; this may be an animal,
plant, tree, bird, insect, sky. stars,
landscape, a spot in the woods or
near the water, or one of many other
things which may occur to you.
One other privilege for honor mem
bers: As you know, all club members
may choose their own subjects, and
may receive “surprise gifts” from the
Wise Old Owl. But an honor member
may also be eligible for the regular
50-cent prize even if his letter is not
on the assigned subject. However,
for an honor member to receive the
50-cent prize, if his subject is differ
ent from the assigned one, his con
tribution must be not on y better
than all others received that week,
but also better than all previous ones
which he himself has had printed.
Sunshine Club Corner.
Three members of the Boys’ and
Girls’ Sunshine club will receive re
membrances from the Wise Old Owl
this week for the following poems.
We have made some slight changes
in these poems as they were original
ly written, and we hope that our
young poetesses will benefit from a
comparison of these with their orig
inal versions, and will keep trying to
write more and better contributions
Strength During
MIDDLE LIFE
Strength is extra-important
for women going through the
change of life. Then the body
needs the very best nourish
ment to fortify it against the
changes that are taking place.
In such cases, Cardui has
proved helpful to many wom
en. It increases the appetite
and aids digestion, favoring
more complete transformation
of food into living tissue, re
sulting in improved nutrition
and building up and strength
ening of the whole system.
FLYING sparks cause half the fires
that destroy so many homes. Even if
you are very careful with fire, some
day your neighbor will have a fire
which may cause damage to your
home.

“School.”
I really like to go to school
On a pretty day.
We have to study hard, but then
We also get to play.
I like my teacher very much;
Our lessons she explains.
The school bell calls us from our play
In the shady lanes.
School is o’er; we miss our work;
We miss all of our studies;
We miss our teacher and our friends,
Our dear old school-day buddies.

“Mother.”
Mother dear, my pretty mother,
When you close your eyes for sleep,
I will come here to your bed
And tell my love so true and deep.
Each one on earth has a precious
mother,
Either here or in heaven above.
Mothers says, “You’re my darling
children,”
And her voice is full of love.
Mother put her arm around me
As I sat there by her bed,
Speaking softly,, gently to me,
“Darling, rest your tired head.”
Bonzie Murphy—l 2 Years Old.

Budding trees and bloomnig flowers.

HORSE’S PARADISE. J
CALABASAS, Calif.—Falling into
a dead-end canyon, Jiggs, 9-year-old
cow pony, was unhurt and in a
horse’s paradise—rich, grassy slopes
and plenty of cool, spring water. Ef
forts to reach the pony with block and
tackle failed and he was not rescued
until cowboys dug a path along the
steep wall and pttshed the animal up
the narrow trail.
Habits of Wasps
Wasps sleep soundly in the dark
and are sluggish on a cloudy day.
Unlike other insects, when they are
awake they breath by a noticeable
“telescoping” of the abdomen back
and forth. When they are asleep
they breathe like other insects, by
a slow, molecular diffusion of air
already in the tracheae. The first
activity of a wasp after waking is
to resume the telescope type o f
breathing.

Presbyterian Rally
Held At Beersheba
One of the very best county-wide
rallies of the Presbyterians was held
at Beersheba church Sunday. It was
well attended. A sumptuous dinner
and two good sermons were enjoyed,
one by Dr. H. W. McLaughlin, D.D.,
of Richmond, Va., and Rev. R. T.
Gillespie, of Atlanta, who gave an
inspiring message to the young peo
ple. A number of prominent Presby
terian from other counties were
present also.
The rally will be held at Walnut
Grove church next year in celebration
of their centennial, 100 years of up
lifting service in that community.
IN MEMORIAM.
Well, Coach Peter Boney is gone.
After an excellent job with a bunch
of raw material at S.H.S., Mr. Bon
ey accepted a position with our clos
est rivals, Trion High.
Mr. Boney, after graduating from
college less than three months before,
came to Summerville last fall. A very
young man he was confronted with
the problem of producing a winning
football team. The greater part of
experienced men had graduated the
year before and only five lettermen
were left. With these lettermen and
ten others, a squad of fifteen, he
started the season. Other players
gradually came out until we finished
the season with twenty-three on the
squad.
Using a tricky double back
system with the light squad, Coach
Boney, after a terrible start of three
consecutive losses, made a magnifi
cent comeback to have his team fin
ish the regular schedule with a .500
percentage and climax this act by
beating our arch enemies, Trion.
After this successful ending of the
football season, we went right into
the basket ball season. Coach Boney
is also to be congratulated on this
team. Although not quite having a
.500 percentage in this sport, we had
a better than average team.
In tract we had a very fine year,
with the team plac'ng second in the
district meet in spite of all the hard
'uck we had.
On top of this, Mr. Boney was a
'T’ine teacher and an excellent dis
ciplinarian. He helped your writer in
his school year and I know he aided
some of the other boys.
The entire school and town wishes
you all the success possible in your
new undertakings (except in the
mming Thanksgiving game), and
hope your achievements will be high
ly renown. And so at the end of a su
perb sport and scholastic year, we
say au revoir.—W. C.

hooks or trotlines, with natural or
artificial bait.
It is unlawful to poison fish by
any means whatever, to dynamite
fish; to shoot fish with any kind of
firearms; to gig or spear fish; to

toosa, Chattooga, Dade, Dawson,
Fannin, Gilmer, Gordon, Habersham,

out first procuring a non-resident li
cense ($5.25) from the director of
wild life or his duly authorized agent. I
UNTIL FALL.
The decision of the supreme court
to take up the nower company cas-s
means that this "field of litigation will
be in status quo, almost, until the
fall term of the court. The govern
ment had hoped that the court would
reject the matter .entirely, thus mak
ing effective favorable lower court
opinion.

NEW CARS AND IMPROVED
RAILROAD SERVICE
The Central of Georgia is purchasing $1,750,000 of
new freight and passenger cars for the improvement
of its service to the shipping and traveling public. De
livery of the new equipment will start immediately
and will be completed during the summer.
Included in the purchase are five steel air-condi
tioned coaches, which, added to similarly equipped
cars already in service, will give the benefit of this
great modern improvement to coach passengers on
main line trains. All sleeping cars are air-conditioned
and the famous through trains between Florida and
the West—the Seminole, Dixie Flyer, Dixie Limited,
Flamingo and Southland are air-conditioned
throughout.
The lowest fares in railroad history prevail both in
coaches and sleeping cars. Travel by rail is economi
cal, comfortable and above all safe. Any representa
tive of the Central of Georgia will be pleased to quote
rates and make reservations. Employes bear con
tinually in mind the objective “Safety First, Friend
liness Too.”
The Central of Georgia’s latest purchase also in
cludes 600 freight cars and 3 express cars, so that all
branches of rail service may be fully equipped to meet
the public’s needs.
Os the $1,750,000 expended the Receiver has bor
rowed $1,400,000, with faith that the future of this
territory justifies the action.
Constructive criticism and suggestions are invited.
H. D. POLLARD, Receiver.
