Statesbofo and Bulloch county
are offering for the controller
generalship of the state Adjutant
General Horner C. Parker, whose
service in his present office has
been preeminently efficient and
thorough and painstaking and
fair.
Not only South Georgia, but
all the rest of the state, should
give him large majorities, be
cause his record indicates he will
carry to the new office he seeks
the same qualities which have
marked him in his service to his
city, county, the state, and in
war time to the nation. His ex
perience has been broid, his
ability recognized.
There has rarely been a public
servant in Georgia who has giv
en such prompt and efficient at
tention to his duties. Those who
have had to deal with him in his
present office will bear evidence
to support that statement. Geor
gia will make no mistake in ac
cording him the office of con
trollergeneral —Savannah Morn

Our Candidate for Governor
The citizens of Gwinnett county
have a just pride in presenting
James A. Perry lo the voters of
Georgia as one highly worthy and
eminently qualified to be Governor
of our great state. They believe
that his opportunity for study of
the affairs of the state during the
past twenty years together with the
unfaltering and fearless action that
has characterized his life as official
and citizen places him with a su
perior claim over any other candi
date.
No one can claim that the state s
affairs are in even fair business
condition Too few people have
taken seriously the affairs of Geor
gia and the state's business is now
regarded by too many people as
something to be played and trifled
with
Unfortunately with the advent of
our Highway Department, many
self seeking individuals have sought
to control the millions of highway
money. Representatives of such
interests are supporting the former
chairman of the Highway Depart
ment. It can hardly be denied that
the school book trust has strangled
every effort to save the people from
paying exorbitant profits or that
representatives of this trust are
supporting Mr. Carswell.
Mr. Perry has proven bis worth
in constructive and economical ad
ministration of the laws regulating
public utilities. It Is to his credit
more than to any other mat, that
we have economical light and power
throughout the state and at the
same prices in the smaller cohimu
nities as in the larger cities With
the same broad view of public serv
ice he has Initiated revision of rail
road rates that has placed every
shipping point in the state on the
same rates as paid by the large
cities

Be careful what you drink at

Don’t attempt exercise such as
tennis, or necking. whi : e the suu

Don’t walk on empty pop bottles
in your bare feet. It disturbs your
equanimity besides playing hell

Eat fruit and green vegetables

But we highly approve of your method

A Protest!

in the name of tne National

protest the “Cock’s Comb Test."
We protest the double standard,
1 whrroby hens are supplied with
a good grade of horse corn,
whereas we are tested with er

been given too much credit. Un

THE VALUE of sound design, good materials and careful
craftsmanship is especially apparent in the new Ford after
the first twenty-five thousand miles. Long, continuous
service emphasizes its mechanical reliability and economy of
operation and up-keep.
As you drive the Ford through many months and years you
will develop an increasing pride in its appearance and a
growing respect for the substantial worth that has been built
into it. From every standpoint—fin everything that goes to
make a good automobile - —you will know that you have made
a far-seeing, satisfactory purchase.
Wherever you go, you hear enthusiastic praise of the car
and this significant, oft-repeated phrase-—“l’m glad I
bought a Ford.”
A FORD owner in New York tells of a
13,000-inile trip across the United States
and back in sixty days and says “the car
was extremely economical to operate, com
fortable and speedy.” A grateful father
tells how the Triplex shatter-proof glas»
windshield saved his wife and children:
from serious injury.
To test tires, a large company drove a
new Ford day and night, for an average of
500 miles every twenty-four hours. It was
still giving satisfactory service after
105,000 miles.
A Ford car that had fallen into Fern am
Lake was submerged for twelve days be
fore being raised. After a new battery md
carburetor bowl were instalkal, it was driven,
back to Spokane uuder its own pow er^
Many police departments have wrlttem
of the special advantages of the- Ford in
crowded traffic because of its. alert speed,
acceleration, and ease of control. An in
creasing number of fleet owners are also
purchasing the Ford because their cost
figures have given conclusive proof of its
economy of operation and up-keep.
In addition to important triumphs in
Germany, France and Italy, the Ford won
six out of seven leading places in a contest
in Finland, first and second in the Rafacla
races in Argentina, first and second in the

Eyes Tired?« A Lotion
mil Soothe And
Rest Them
SOMEONE once said “the
eyes are the windows of the
s^pl.” But I should like to
have you think of them as the
vtindows of a utoman’s beauty —
for they arc just that. Eyes re
veal a woman’s personality more
than any other part of the face.
Tired* eyes always make a
woman look tired, though she
may have rouged her cheeks care
fully to a natural (flow, and put
on her most attractive frock. But
if you get enough sleep, and keep
your health up to par, your eyes
usually will be bright and clear.
If they still seem dull, however,
here is a simple, easy remedy:
Use a good eye lotion at least
once a day without fail. This
will take away any small bits of
dust or grime that may have
lodged in your eyes, and will
leave them clear, brilliant and
soothed. And you will find it
makes a great improvement in
your appearance if you use an eye
lotion before going out to a party.
Always remember to apply a
tiny bit of tissue cream or skin
food to your eyelids before you
powder and rouge your face.
Wipe off most of this cream, but
lesre ©n enough of it to give vour
eyelids a soft, rather moist look.
Ford Motor Company
The result is far from artificial —
if is exactly the way your eyes
should look in their natural state.
And if you are tired, the cream
will take away that hard, drawtx
look from around your eyes.
Perhaps you have noticed un
attractive little wrinkles forming;
around your eyes. Unless they
appear with quite advanced age^
these lines may be smoothed away
very safely and easily. First, of
course, your skin must be thor
oughly cleansed with a good
cleansing cream. Then apply
either skin food or a tissue cream
generously all around your eyes.
If your skin is normal or inclined
to be oily, use tissue cream. But
if your skin is very dry, I rec
ommend skin food.
Next, dip your middle and in
dex fingers into muscle oil. You
can feel how rich and stimulating
this oil is the moment your
fingers touch it. Then with
gentle, rhythmic movements
move your finger tips around and
around your eyes. Begin at the
bridge of your nose, and laying
your index and middle fingers on
each side of your nose, move your
fingers upward, across your eye
brows. down across your temples,
and lightly back across your
cheeks to your nose again.
Repeat this movement at least
ten times, and make it rhythmic,
not jerky. The little lines will be
smoothed away gradually, and if
you are faithful In this treatment,
they wll not come bach.
