Seniors Visit Atlanta
The Lucky Thirteen' started on
their tour of Atlanta Tuesday
morning, March 11, looking forward
to many surprises and adventures.
The boys and girls were divided
to go in the cars and we began our
merry way, to get as far as Rome.
By that time we had a nice game
of tag with Miss Holland, our
home room teacher.
Our first stop in Atlanta was the
capitol. We visited the houses of
senate and representatives. In the
house of representatives we were
announced by the speaker. While
at the capitol, we climbed to the
dome from which we could see most
of Atlanta.
The next treat which we enjoyed
was lunch at Sears, Roebuck & Co.
The officials were exceptionally
nice to us. They served us a delici
ous dinner and showed us through
the different departments of the
store. The mail order department
proved to be the most interesting.
It was amazing to see how quickly
orders could be filled. From Sears
we went by Grant park, the Chev
rolet plant, Lakewood and on to
Candler field. Some of the class
went riding in airplanes. After leav
ing the airport we stopped by the
Atlanta Constitution.
We feel that our trip to Atlanta
was most successful and we hope
that other classes which follow
may have as successful a senior trip
as we had on our trip to Atlanta.

■ WARNING!
s Pointing out that measles is a
. dangerous and contagious disease,
. the Georgia Department of Public
, Health issues a warning to be on
■ the look-out for symptoms of the
disease, and rules to follow when
. these symptoms are observed.
The first signs of measles are
I sneezing, running at the nose, and
a slight cough. The eyes look red
and watery and the light hurts
them. It is during this period that
others are most likely to catch the
• disease. The child may appear to
. have a cold, but the mother who
sends her child to school or allows
, him to play with other children in
: the neighborhood at this time is
■ helping to spread he disease to oth
er children.
; There is little fever in the be
ginning. In a day or two the skin
! becomes hot, the tongue becomes
• covered, by a flurry coating and the
throat grows very red. About the
■ fourth day, red spots begin toap
; pear on the forehead and behind
i the ears and spread rapidly over
. the neck and the entire body. The
spots collect in large red blotches
' and. usually itch.
i Rules given when these signs are
observed include: Keeping the child
; out of school, and at home, indoors
, in a light, airy room, and away
from other children; calling the
, doctor without delay, so he may
prescribe proper treatment; follow
ing the doctor’s directions for keep
; ing the child’s eyes, ears, mouth
: and nostrils perfectly clean, all dis
charges from he nose, mouth and
! running ears to be gathered in
clean rags or soft paper tissue and
■ burned.
Measles can be easily caught
I through the disease germs the sick
person spreads by talking or cough
l ing. For this reason only the doc
tor and the person who is nursing
■ the patient should enter the sick
room.
: After the rash fades, the skin be-
, gins to flake off in the form of fine
bran-like scales. This scaling mav
J last from several days to a few
I . weeks. A child should not be allow
. ed to get up until the doctor says
- it is safe, and then it is better to
take him to the doctor again in a
[ few months to make certain there
I are no bad after-effects.
■ and Mrs. Marnell Weems Sunday
evening.
The friends of Rev. and Mrs. W.
- P. Rowe will be interested to know
, that they will leave Monday for a
two weeks’ vacation in Florida.

Imperial Muffins for the Week-End Guests
Mt W
W.-. ■
CO YOU’RE worried what to serve
for breakfast when guests arrive
this week-end?
Starting with the fruit, why not
have sliced honeydew with sweet,
red cherries scattered over it and
over the plate—for appeal, you
know. Or serve chilled, fresh apri
cots and seedless grapes on glass
plates (on grape leaves, if you have
tnem). Follow with eggs baked in
bacon rings. And for this, simply
ring muffin cups with bacon, drop
in the egg, bake until the egg is
set, and there you are, pretty and
easy. It’s taken for granted you’ll
make plenty of hot coffee.
To crown this summer breakfast—
in name and flavor—make imperial
muffins. They’re easy as saying
“scat” to mix up if you use the
new, self-rising flour. Baking pow-

Pontiac prices begin at sB2B*. A new 1941
Pontiac "Torpedo” will cost you so little more
than the "lowest-priced three” that the differ
ence will amount to only a very few dollars per
month. What’s more, Pontiac’s economy of
operation and upkeep permits you to drive for
practically the same money that a lesser car
requires.
