[TRUCKERS OPPOSE ESTABLISHING MARKET A petition is being circulated among the trackers around Augusta, condemning tho market place project. The move was made as the result of a recent meeting of the executive committee of the Savannah Valley Associated Farmers' clubs, at which time the market place was endorsed, and the announcement made that. If nobody objected strenuously, the mat ter would be taken before council. Further than that the truckers are circulating* a resolution, the farm ers know nothing, and they are anx ious for the truckers to "show their hand.” The sentiment of the farmers, ex pressed briefly, is about like this: They want a market place, provided its advantages are thought by a ma jority of those people interested to outweigh its disadvantages. This has been the attitude of the farmers all along, as they h\ev stated privately and publicly. An effort will be made very soon to get the truckers, the butchers, and all other persons who have vital In terests at stake, together in a meet ing, when It is proposed that the matter be discussed at length. If it is found that the market place j would he advantageous and that tho j truckers are not so unalterably op posed to the plan, after all, the execu tive committee will frame a peti tion and present the same to city council for consideration.

The .dispensers of poslam, a new skin discovery, ask that, notice be given that no one is urged to pur j chase it without first obtaining an ex perimental package. Those who have tried it wlil find that the flfty-cent box, on sale at the Cabaniss Drug company and ail drug stores, is suffi cient to cure the worst cases of ec zema, where the surface affected is not too large. The itching ceases on first application. It will also cure acne, tetter, blotches, scaly scalp, hives, barber's and every other form :of itch, including itching feet. Be ing flesh-colored and containing no 1 grease, the presence ofposlam on ex i posed surfaces, such as the face and hands, is not perceptible. Water and soap cannot be used In connection with it, as these irritate and prolong I skin troubles, sometimes even caus ing them. As to*the experimental package of poslam, it can had free of, charge by mail of the Emergency Labora tories, 32 West Twenty-fifth Street. New York. It alone is sufficient to clear the complexion overnight, and to rid the face of pimples in twenty four hours. BURTON-TAYLOR-WISE CO.

Mr. Kent Bissell, captain of Camp 435, U. C. .. Augusta, says that if the Boosters’ club committee would go ahead and raise the fund of SBSO which they set out to get a few days ago. ho is confident that he could get together a company of at least 40 men to represent Augusta on Inaugu ration Day in Washington. While of course a number of the old soldiers are now growing feeble, and fear to brave the rigors of a cli mate like that of Washington, which is always a deal more severe thaa Augusta’s weather, he thinks that there are still in the camp enlist,- ment a sufficient number who are yet "hale and hearty” enough to make the trip. He stated yesterday that he had not yet called a meeting of the camp because he feared that there might be some doubt about raising the money. He did not want to elevate the hopes of the veterans, and then disappoint them later by stating that the committee had not succeeded In raising all the mouey necessary. He stressed the point that he did not mean this in a disparaging sense to the committee, but realizing that a great many calls are now being made on the liberal citizens of Augusta for subscriptions, he thought It would be best to watt until the money was In sight before calling the old soldiers together. Captain Btsell further stated that 11 the committee from the Roosters’ club would resume their canvass, after considering the matter, he thought of calling a meeting of the camp just as soon as they get the necessary sum in sight. He said he would have no trouble getting the men together. BOARD TALKED OF DOMESTIC SCIENCE Mr. Hickman Thought It Was Better To Train Young Women To Be Cooks Than Missionaries The regular monthly meeting of the Board of Education was held at the Tubman High School Saturday. There was no special business and after a short session the meeting ad journed. Mr. Geo. S. Murphey asked that the secretary show what the do mestic sicence in the schools had cost and what did it cost per pupil. Supt. Evans gave him the full report and various members expressed their ap preciation of the work of Mr. Evans to get the domestic science depart ment to its high standard. Mr. Evans stated that the equip ment had cost the board $265. He said that there was one lesson given a week at each school, and the pu pils and teachers liked the work. The teachers in the grammar department say that the domestic science does not detract from the other work done in their departments. Mr. Evans told of going to New England and visit ing the schools. He said that in Bos ton it cost 2 1-4 cents per pupil a les son and in Augusta it has been cost ing 2 1-2 cents a lesson. He said he had talked with the domestic science teachers and they thought they could bring the cost down a little. Mr. Evans told of the great amount of work being done by Miss Boggs, and the excellent results obtained by her. He said that the work was highly satisfactory. Mr. T. I. Hickman stated that if it cost the board ten cents a lesson for each pupil, he did not think that it was too much. He said that if he had to train young ladles to be mis sionaries or cooks, he would train them to be cooks, as a man who did not get good food, could not be a good missionary. In conclusion Mr. Hickman stated that he thought the work was a good one, and he thought the board should extend their hearti est thanks to Mr. Evans and thj teachers for the work they were dol ing. A motion of thanks was passed. The report of the financial com mittee was read and it was shown that on February Ist the board had over ten thousand dollars In the bank. This is an exceptionally large amount. * BAZAAR OF SACRED HEART BEGINS MONDAY Many Booths Loaded with Good Things Will Be Ready At Miller Walker Hall.
