Camp (Jordon, xxgs a guest of his father and family last Sunday. lie seemed to be in fine health and good spirits. Messrs. X. E. Harrell. Charlie Rollins and Ye Editor were atten dants upon Clinch superior court this week. The latter, as an at torney, represented two causes which were tried on Monday. Next week, from the Ist to the <;{h of April, has been designated as “clean up week.” Let all of IVarson's cit l/.ens observe the week by putting the city in the very best possible sanitary condition. The Tribune learns that I)r. J. ~S. Morris has decided to move to Atlanta and become connected with the Baptist hospital located there. We hate to say goodbye to him and his splendid little family. Mr. C. G. Pope was in the city a day or two this week, coming over from Douglas where he had been to stand the physical examination as a military registrant. He is al ways a welcome visitor to Pearson. The work of rebuilding the Hi ram Mancil brick store has com menced. Contractor Walter Stone, of Douglas, is superintending the job, and when he gets it completed it will present a splendid ap pearanoe. Another severe cold spell 'may come, but a severe cold spell is not half so disagreeable as a severe head or chest cold, cough, croup, sore-throat, bronchitis, tonsilitis or pneumonia. Ail of which can lie quickly repulsed if Drew's Salve is rubbed on the affected parts. Mother try it on your little ones. You can not afford to trifle xvith their lives when one 25 cent bottle will suffice. Try it on the guaran tee of your druggist as well as the manufacturer. A Brutal Attack. •lus! after the Tribune went to press last week Mr. W. M. Corbitt was brought home from Douglas with some ugly wounds about his head and face. Dr. 11. I*. Smith wasealled and dressed the wounds, 11 was stated that these wounds were the result of at: unlocked for attack by Mr. .lac' ‘ distinger. Mr. ( orbit l slates that lie was struck on the lu-ad by M, Bastinger with a pair of knacks >r some other instrument befort te knew there was any grievance between them. The lick dazed him so he was powerless to defend himself, and was struck several blows before bystanders stopped his assailant. It seems that Mr. Last i tiger's grievance is against the entire : Pearson ( it.v < onncil. one of whom was Mr. Corbitt, because they re fused to remit or lessen a fine im posed upon him last fall by Mayor 1 irk land. It is understood he has threat ‘tied to beat every member of that Council at the first oppor t unity. Mr. I. J’asson spent last Sunday xvith friends at Wayeross. He is making preparation lodnly observe Passover. Mortuary. Wilma, the bright, little daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. J. 1,. Harrell, died Monday night about 10o’clock, from a complication of Measles and Pneumonia. It was thought last week that the child was improving and would soon be well, but Saturday it took a relapse and gradually grew worse until the end came. The interment xvasat Sweetwater cemetery, two miles north of the city. Elder J. R. Thigpen, pastor of St. Marys Baptist <’hapel, officiated. The little girl had many friends among her and older people, and the floral offerings were many and beautiful. The bereaved parents have the sympathy of the entire community in their sorrow. The Tibune ex tends its sincere condolence. It is so hard to lose our loved ones, but be assured that “The Lord doeth all things well" and for our good. PEARSON TRIBUNE, MAH< II 29,1918 War School Gardeners.

He is liking his job very well, and thinks he has a year’s work ahead of him. It will take that long to complete the ship <m which he is at work. Mr. S. E. Riggins, manager of the Yaryan wood camp near here, is also a filler of the soil and has a one-horse farm ten miles north of Wayeross on the A. B. A A., Rail way. Mr. Riggins made a trip to liis plantation a few days ago, re turning to Pearson Tuesday night. Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Smith, of Moore's Mill, are visiting his fath er’s family at Tifton. From the j Gazette it, is learned that a broth er, Mr. Ilixon Smith, had found il necessary to go to Alto, Georgia, for treatment at the Tuberculosis sanitarium located there, and that Mr. W. M. Smith accompanied him there. A burglary was coin milted some nights ago upon the store of the Morris Drug Company. The store was entered from the rear. Noth ing was missed except candy, the entire stock being carried away. No due to the perpetrator. The first thing yon know somebody will be placed in durance vile, where they can repent of their folly at leisure. The Pearson rural mail service has been in an uncertain condition ever since Mr. \V. J. Tyler re signed as carrier. Postmaster Smith lias been securing substi tut.es as best he could; he failed to secure a substitute last Friday and the routes were not served at all. It is hoped the department will straighten out this matter by put t ing a permanent carrier on the routes. An alarm of fire was sounded early Saturday morning when it was discovered that Dr. Smith’s dwelling was ablaze where the kitchen flue came up through the roof, quick work soon extinguish ed the flames with comparatively small damage. Had it gotten be yond control the distruetion of a considerable portion of the city may have resulted. The public is earnestly requested to trade, mostly, with Tribune ad x'ertisers. They xvill appreciate your patronage. CHURCH DIRECTORY. PEARSON MISSIONARY BAPTIST CHURCH. Elder O. O. WILLIAMS, Pastor Preaching every third Sunday at 11 o’clock a. m. and 7 o’clock p. in.

Sweat lias invested SSOO of trust funds in War Saving Stamps. He will probably invest SSOO more in t he same way as soon as Postmaster Smith can secure them for him. There is no belter way of investing trust funds and the Tribune commends Mr. Sweat for his thought fulness. Let other trustees follow his example. Next Sunday is Missionary day at the Baptist Sunday School, and quite an elaborate program is being arranged for Hu* occasion. 11 is right to impress upon the young that “The Gospel is the power ol God unto salvation to every one I hat believe! h," and it is the duty of men and women, boys and girls, to help send it to every creature. Feed Out Your Hogs Six Weeks Earlier. In every lot of hogs on feed two or three weeks quiekly and act u ally eat less than others. If all would fatten like these, the entire drove would be ready for the mar ket six weeks earlier and to save six weeks feed is an item that you fully understand. Tlie hog that fattens easily must be in prime physical condition. I'he B. A. Thomas' Hog Powder is a conditioner for hogs. It keeps their system clean and healthy and enables them to fatten quiekly without falling a prey to the usual disease of hogs. The B. A.Thomas’ Hog Powder is not stock food. It's straight medicine and we took the agency because it enables you to feed out your hogs much earlier. Sold by Pk arson Hardware Store, Pearson, (la. City Marshal’s Tax Sale.
