NEW EVIDENCE IN

Atlanta, July 6. —Testimony
in Governor Talmadge’s hearing
of ouster charges against the
state public service commission
was featured today by that of
Dewey Johnson, Atlanta city
electrician who asserted that he
had found electric meters run
ning too fast.
A complaint had been wired to
Governor Talmadge from Wat
kinsville yesterday, resulting in
a trip by Johnson to that town
where, he reported he found four
meters running from 1 5 to 5 per
cent faster than they should
have.
Shortley after Johnson had
testified, the Georgia federation
of labor, complaintant in the
ouster case, rested, and the de
fendant commissioners opened
their attack upon the charges.
Prior to Johnson’s testimony,
three motor bus operators testi
tied to the participation of com
missioner Walter McDonald in a
conference on a bus line merger
at an Augusta Hotel.

MELONS SI OPPED
BECAUSE OF GLUT
Atlanta, July 6.—Unseasonably
cool weather in the large watermelon
consuming cities in the East and mid
West has “shot the watermelon
market,” Max L. Mcßae, director of
the state bureau of markets, said
today.
‘ The markets are glutted because
they usually take on a big supply for
the Fourth of July trade, and because
the cool weather during the past few
days has greatly reduced the demand,
said Mcßae.
“I am advised by J. J. Parrish,
general manager of the Sowega Mel
on Growers’ association, that he is
not shipping any melons at all this
week. I urge other shippers in
Georgia to follow suit, in order to
allow the market to get back on its
feet.”
Build Up that
Skinny Child!
Enrich Hit Impoverished
Blood
Sickly, weak, underweight children are
usually lacking in rich, red blood. When
blood becomes poor, a child becomes
rundown. Already weak, he loses appe
tite, which makes him still weaker. Take
no chances on a child gaining strength
by himself. Start giving him Grove’s
Tasteless Chill Tonic right away. This
famous tonic contains both iron and
tasteless quinine. Iron mskes for rich,
red blood while quinine tends to purify
the blood. In other words, you get two
effects in Grove’s Tasteless Chill Tonic.
Put your child on this time-proven
tonic for a few days and see the differ
ence it makes in him. Good appetite, lots
of pep and energy and red roses in his
cheeks. Children like Grove’s Tasteless
Chill Tonic and take it eagerly. It is abso
lutely harmless and has been a reliable
family medicine for half a century. Get a
bottle today at any store.
The Child Reader
by
MARJORIE BARROWS
Editor, Child Life Magazine.
One afternoon many years ago a
wharf rat on San Francisco Bay wan-
dered Into the Oak
land Public Library.
There, opening a
bound volume of
a childrens mag
azine, he stumbled
upon a story. It
was a story about
a boy like blnfself
—a runaway, a
gang leader of
wharf rats, who
had certain semi
piratlcal adven
tures, but who, aft-
Marjorie Barrow,
learned of better
ways of living his life.
Making of Jack London.
The dramatic, exciting story awoke
in the young reader the uneasy con
sciousness of his own wrong actions.
He walked out of that library resolv
Ing to lead just as adventurous a life
but one that carried with it a clear
conscience. So he joined the Fish Pa
trol, cruised about the bay, fought
poachers, and before long began to
write stories about his adventures.
That boy was Jack London. The
experience of this famous writer oc
curs, In a rather less dramatic sash
ion, In the life of every boy or girl.
Careful Investigators have discov
ered that next to persons, nothing has
more Influence on children than what
they read. If a hero they admire acts
under certain circumstances as they
themselves would like to act, they'll
remember It.
They Imitate the Hero.
And when the time comes, they'll
unconsciously be influenced by that
hero's action and try to do likewise.
The heroine's kindness, ambition,
steadfastness, loyalty, the hero’s re
sourcefulness, quick-wittedness, pains
taking qualities, courage, magnaminlty,
modesty—all these examples "sink In”
and are emulated both now and later.
One story with hidden character-build
ing values Is worth a dozen sermons
from parents or teachers.
Let us try to see that this sort of a
story, full of plenty of adventure for
the boy, full of Interesting plots and
characters for the girl, is convenient
for them to pick up.
Jack London isn't the only one to be
tremendously influenced by the printed
word.
Evidently Governor Talmadge
forgot that there are any num
ber of young men in the Civilian
Conservation Corps who are of
voting age when he recently re
ferred to them as “loafers and
bums.” He is likely to have it
brought very vividly to his at
tention when be seeks office

Canned Foods for Babies
A
[ p UREEP | Hi
THIS is the season when vegeta
bles are being raised to pur^e
for babies and process in cans.
These vegetables, such as spinach,
carrots, peas, tomatoes and green
beans, are developed under the
supervision of trained field men
from the time of seed selection
to the time of maturity. They
are picked at just the right stage
of ripeness, and clapped Into cans
before they have time to lose an
iota of their freshness.
After thorough Inspection and
washing, the fresh, crisp vegeta
bles are placed in specially de
signed, glass-lined retorts from
which the air is excluded and are
steam pressure cooked until prop
erly softened. The products are
then automatically moved through
the straining machines in which
the straining operations are ef
fected in an atmosphere of
steam. They then pass automati-,
cally into glass-lined kettles fori
moisture determination. This in-

Nature’s Own Secret
of Health Revealed
Science Discovers That Good Health
Depends on Supplying the System with
Necessary Minerals and Vitamins.
Medical Science has discovered that
the human body Is made op of a very
limited number of essential elements.
All of these are found in the Mineral
kingdom and in foods in their natural
state. To be exact, the healthy human
body is composed of eleven Minerals and
when these are present, in balanced pro
portion, we enjoy good health
PROPER FOODS ESSENTIAL
Unfortunately, few of us give any
thought to balancing our diets, accord
ing to their Mineral content, and there
fore we must pay the penalty A defi
ciency of these elements brings on Indi
gestion, Gas, Bloating, Constipation,
Headaches, Nervousness and a host of
other ills. We soon lose strength, go
from bad to worse and become disgusted
with life itself.
NEW WAV TO HEALTH
For many long years. Physicians and
Chemists have been trying to combine,
in proper proportion, the eleven essen
tial Minerals with necessary Vitamins.
They realized that the preparation must
be easily assimilated and supply the i
system with these elements so necessary
to health.
SCIENCE TRIUMPHS AGAIN
Fortunately, for all mankind, this tre
tnendous undertaking has met with suc-
■ sures uniformity of consistency of
> each product.
A Boon to Mothers
. These products obviate the
i necessity for mothers to spend
! many tedious hours cleaning,
i cooking and straining vegetables
i for their babies. Throughout the
' entire cooking process, and
■ throughout the straining opera
i tion, air is excluded from contact
i with them. This treatment ef
fects maximum conservation of
I the mineral salts and vitamin
values that mean health and
growth, and bone and body build
ing development for baby, better
than any mother herself can do
this at home.
For the normal baby vegetable
feedings should begin at from six
to eight months, but the canners
of these products all urge that
mothers should invariably con-
I suit their doctor as to the best
I feeding schedule for their own
I b.-ibies.*
cess! Science has perfected a most
remarkable formula, known as LEE'S
MINERAL COMPOUND. This prep
aration supplies the system with the
eleven essential Minerals, in combination
with Vitamins. It is not, in any sense
of the word, a “patent” medicine but is
more in the nature of a FOOD VITAL
IZER. It assists Nature, by restoring
a proper balance of the Mineral Content
of the body and good health follows aa
a natural result.
BIG SURPRISE AWAITS YOU
You who are blue, down cast and
depressed over your loss of health. You
who have tried many medicine* and
treatments with little or no relief —
take new heart and cheer! Prepare
yourselves for the most joyous sur
prise of your lives.
MAKE THIS 10 DAY TEST
Convince Yourself!
Stop dosing yourself with "patent madl
cinos," harsh purgatives, oils and cathartic*
for Just 10 days. Go to your nearest Drug
glat and secure a bottle of LKB'S MINEW
COMPOUND. Take It regularly. and watet
the results. Tou'll be amated at the feeling
of renewed strength and vigor that soot
appears. No n&reotica or alcohol to ‘ booet
you up” but a natural method of restoring
health and energy. i
