That’s what we girls call “four-o’clock-itis,” and we know that candy, because it pro vides lots of energy, Is a great “pick me-up” for it. You might call my present a “Candy Humidor.” It’s a good-looking leather box I found on my last shopping tour and I’m filling It with hard candies. Dad can keep It handy on his desk to help himself from, just like a cigarette box, and when It’s empty It can be filled again. I’ll bet that will be soon. NOTICE GEORGIA —Wheeler County.
