More Work from Your Mules
T HOUSANDS of mule owners are not getting the best
work from their mules, or as long a service, because
of improper feeding. Most people figure mules are just
naturally hardy animals and don't require such careful selec
tion of feed.
A balanced ration not only puts mules in better shape for
work, but keeps them in better health at less cost.
Dry, tasteless oats and corn lack variety and are not easily
digested. You could get plenty of bulk from a loaf of bread to
fill your stomach, but wouldn’t you do a lot better work on
well-cooked steak and fresh vegetables?
O-Molene supplies the variety to keep
mules in good working condition.
Because O-Molene has less waste end is
more completely digested, you feed much less
by weight than corn and oats.
Order some O-Molene teday and watch
the good results.

Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 11.—“There is
much work to be done in Georgia and
other southern states for the protec
tion of the juvenile criminals. It is
'a mistake to deal too harshly with
| the young criminal or the boy or
girl who has violated the law while
j of a tender age. Many boys could
be rescued from a life of crime and
be made to become good citizens if
the proper attention and encourage
ment is shown to them in aiding them
to build stronger characters and in
[gaining higher ideals of life and
citizenship.”
The foregoing statement was made
here today by Rev. Crawford Jack-
son, general secretary of the Juvenile
Protective Association and probably
one of the best known child welfare
workers in the southern states. Mr.
Jackson, who is a minister and author
of note_ as well as an authority on
birds, established the Juvenile Pro
tective Association more than a quar
ter of a century ago. His work takes
him to all parts of the south, where
;he is constantly engaged in advocat
ing the establishment of juvenile
courts and probation systems. It is
estimated that through his associa
tion and the various agencies which
■ it has helped to establish more than
20,000 children during the last year
have been rescued from a life of
crime and placed on a road to better
citizenship.
“For the sake of your children and
; your city's future well-being I beg
that you get down without delay to
this vitally, infinitely, worthwhile
bussinesa of caring for delinquent
children,” is a statement which Mr.
Jackson has addressed to thousands
of audiences throughout the South.
| In addition to the large work -which
the Junevile Protective Association
is now doing throughout the South,
the organization, composed of promi
nent men and women in various
states, is working to establish the
Junior Republic of the South, a self-
1 governing institution for wayward
boys and girls. A site of 103 acres
in Campbell county, 14 miles from
Atlanta, has been purchased. Build-
ngs, such as schools and workshops,
j will be erected at a cost of §100,000.
! The republic, it is stated by officials
of the association, will be the only
institution of its kind in the South.
