FOR YOUR BLOOD
To be healthy and strong, you must have a certain amount of iron
in your biood. When your blood lacks iron, nothing can take its place
—and you are bound to suffer for iron until you get it. Pale, weak,
nervous people, who suffer from headaches, indigestion, rheumatic
pains, lack of appetite, and who feel tired, worn-out and depressed,
probably need iron in their blood and should take

The Willacoochee News.
The forty-second annual session
of Mell Baptist Association was
held Wednesday and Thursday of
this week with the Willacoochee
Baptist church. This body of
Christians embrace churches in
Berrien, Tift and parts of Atkinson
and Irwin counties, and is strong
in the spirituality, personality,
numbers and wealth of its member
ship. This meeting was harmon
ious and pleasant throughout. It
is not an initiative but a co-opera
tive body, practically advisory and
without mandatory powers. The
sole idea being—the churches as
sociated together in spreading the
gospel throughout the world.
Mission work which one church
could not undertake the associated
churches can and successfully.
The Tribune lias just printed
Programs for a Recital, to be given
by pupils of the Willacoochee

are Misses Virgie Bowling, Willie
Mae Caison, Willie Mae Joiner,
Georgia Lee Grover, Hazel Allen,
Beatrice Sutton, Marguerite Fol
som, Doris Booth, Verona Phillips,
Marie Corbitt and Carolyn Hend
erson, and Master Edgar Greene.
The program is an interesting one
and will afford at least two hours
of real attractive entertainment.
As suggest ed by the quotation from
Carlyle: “Music is a kind of an
unfathomable speech which leads
us to the edge of the infinite.”

Let us Forget.
Editor Tribune:
I have lived nearly all my life
iu the territory now known as At
kinson county. I still claim it as
my home and the people my
friends.
During the creation and organiz
ation of the new county there
seems to have crept in a dividing
spirit among her people. There
are many things in life that should
be forgotten —to forget is a noble
trait of character. To err is hu
man, to forgive and forget is divine.
1 hope all the people of Atkin
son county will say, with the Ap
ostle Paul, “This one thing 1 do;
forgetting those things which are
belling and reaching forth unto
those things which are before, I
press forward to the mark for the
prize of the high calling of God in
Christ Jesus.” Until we learn to
forget we can never rejoice, be
noble hearted and good spirited.
We cannot accomplish many things
we should do, while we harbor un
pleasant things in our memories
which should be forgotten. It
should be a part of our business in
life to forget unpleasant things
which hinder our being kind,
gentle, forgiving. With our minds
filled with bitter memories and
our hearts filled with malice, we
are failures as a people, a county
or State.
If some one has spoken unkind
ly of us; if some one has done us a
wrong deed; if someone has cover
ed our name with reproach and
shame; if some one has misjudged
and hated us, let us forget it and
become united as one great people
for the honor of our names and the
glory of our common section of
country, it would be a beacon
light to the generation that will
come after ns.
Whether it be our own mistakes
and blunders and shortcomings—
we all have them —or whether it
be the sins, the crimes, the weak
nesses, the wrongs, the failures of
others, let us place them in a com
mon bonfire, destroy and forget
them, and reach forth for the
things that are helpful and stand
for the best interest of our county,
btinging Atkinson county up to
the highest and best standard of
any in South Georgia.
Our reflecting on bitter things
of the past, things that stand be
tween us and happiness and pros
perity, things that makes life sore
and disappointing, that tend to ob
struct and darken the way to high
and noble aspirations.
Finally, let us forget the bad,
remember the good, and stand
united in making Atkinson county
the home of a prosperous, happy,
intelligent and Christian people.

Tribute to Judge Summerall.
Last week Judge J. 1. Summer
all presided at Berrien Superior
Court in the absence of Judge
Dickerson, who was at his home
ill.
Just before final adjournment
for the session, and the attorneys,
court officers and jurors were wait
ing for the gavel to fall, Attorney
R. A, Hendricks offered a rcsolu-
Ition highly endorsing and com
mending the services of Judge
Summerall, and thanking him for
his frank, fair and openly honest
way of conducting the business of
the court. The motion was second
ed by Attorney W. D. Buie, and
unanimously passed by the jury,
the county officials and the bar.
In reply Judge Summerall stated
that he had learned to love the
good people of Berrien county, and
that he was grateful for the way
the attorneys and officers had con
ducted the litigation. He said
that never in his long experience
had held a court where the inter
ested parties had been more kind
and courteous, and that he hoped
to again come to this county to
hold court. While deeply sympa
thizing with the regular judge in
his illness, he hoped to be called
here again for the purpose of hold
ing court, and that the occasion
would not however be because of
the sickness of our good and regu
larly acting judge.
To Be Enforced.
The Tribune has been requested
by a member of the Atkinson coun
ty Board of Education to state to
its readers, with emphasis, that it
is the purpose of the Board to
rigidly enforce the Compulsory
School Attendance law, just as
long as it is the law. The Board
did not enact the law; the Georgia
legislature did that, and for the
noblest of purposes, i.e., to educate
and prepare the boys and girls of
the present to be the manly men
and the womanly women of the
future, equal to any task they may
be called to perform or to fill any
official station creditably to them
selves and with honor to their
county, state or country. The
State of Georgia doesn’t want her
citizens to be "hewers of wood and
drawers of water” for the citizens
of other states and nations, who
have accepted the opportunities
offered them of securing knowledge
and become leaders ol thought and
action.
It is the Tribune's unqualified
opinion that the Board of Educa
tion is living up to their obliga
tions in this matter. Too often
the excuses parents offer for keep
ing their children out of school are
more imaginary than real; too often
do we find that excuses are made
because, of a spirit of rebellion
against all school law, rules and
regulations that doesnt agree with
their individual idiosyucracies.
Every citizen should be loyal to
t heir government, ready to observe
and obey all laws, rules and regu
lations, because they are made
with the view of progress and the
happiness of the citizen. Grouch
and carping should have no place
in our lives. They only make us
unkind, ungenerous and unhappy.
Needs the Home Paper.
Yes, okl dear, the man who gets
moie papers than he has time to
read is still with us. His copies
of Comfort and the Fireside Visit
or st ill reach him regularly and by
the time he digests their contents
he has absorbed a hog’s bait of
reading and hasn’t the time to read
his home paper and post himself
on community affairs. Boor fel
low! it, is such a pity that he has
to rush through life this way, mis
sing so much that he might really
enjoy! We would like to find some
way in which to help these fellows
have the time to read all the pap
ers they can get. They need it. —
