Keep School and Civic
Leagues Active During
Summer Months
Many of the 800 School and
Civic Leagues in our. state
have formed the bad habit of
‘‘going into summer quarters’’
by not having regular meetings
during this season. It is to be
hoped that this unwise custom
will be discontinued by the
majority ot the school leagtu s
this summer; for there is much
that can be done during these
vacation months It is a splen
did time to use the local talent
in some good plays and enter
tainments for the young peoi le
will be free frc m school duties
and can give time to practice.
The boys and girls that have
been away to college will be at
home so you can have their
assistance for this work. This
would add greatly to the social
life of the community and place
some money in the treasury.
The Health Committee can
be very active by keeping up a
live interest in screening the
houses, fly swatting and clean
up days; for these are the
months that we need to put
forth every effort to keep down
typhofd and to prevent dis
eases among infants. The
building and grounds com
mittee can keep things attrac
tive about the school and have
all needed repairs made to
building and outbuildings, so
that everything will be in readi
ness tor the opening of school.
By keeping up these regular
meetings and activities of the
league you will take away that
lonely appearance of the school
building for the summer
months and thereby make it
vdiat it should be, an attractive
ulace all the year around. Let
us hear from you saying that
your league will keep up its
active work all during the sum
mer then you will have a good
report in November as well as
in May.

“Dodson's Liver Tone” Starts Your Liver1
Better Tlian Calomel and You Don’t
Lose a Day’s Work
Liven up your sluggish liver! Feel
fine and cheerful; make vour work a
pleasure; be vigorous and full of afnbi
tion. But take no nasty, dangerous
calomel because it makes you sick and
you may lose a day’s work.
Calomel is mercury or quicksilver
which causes necrosis of the bones.
Calomel crashes into sour bile like
dynamite, breaking it up. That’s when
you feel that awful nausea and cramping.
Listen to me! If you want to enjoy
the nicest, gentlest" liver and bowel
cleansing you ever experienced just take
a spoonful of harmless Dodson’s Liver
Swift Justice
A little more than two
weeks ago the people ot this
section were shocked by vvha'
probably was the most heinous
crime ever committed in Vir
ginia or Tennessee. Today
the guilty men are under sen.
tence of death, and just one
month from this morning they
will die in the electric chair in
the penitentiary at Richmond.
l’he crime was the brutal
violation and murder of a res.
pectable and respected woman
near Wallace, Va., a few
miles north ot Bristol. It was
not discovered until the day
after it was co nmitted and
there was little or no clue as
to the perpetrators. But within
two or three days two young
men who lived in the com
munity were under arrest, and
within ten days after their
arrest they had been condemn
ed to die. When the clay
arrives on which they will expi
ate their crime or crimes—lor
it was a double ctime--ouly
about six weeks will have
elapsed since the afternoon
when they entered the Wilson
home for a fell purpose which
they accomplished in the most
fiendish manner.
Seldom, if ever, has justice
moved more swiftly or struck
with a heavier hand. Virginia
has a record for dealing prompt. |
nals of high and low estate!
which is known far and wide}
and which frequently is com
mented upon by newspapers
of other states. And the
record has been abundantly
sustained in this instance. The

Rheumatism Yields Quickly to Sloan’s:
You oan’t preyeut an tttack of Rheu

stop it almost immediately. Sloan’s
Liniment gently applied to the sore

minutes to the inflamed spot that
onuses the pain. It sootties the hot.
tender, swollen feeling, and in a very
short time brings a relief that is almost
unbelievable until you experience it.

Dodson’s Liver Tone is real liver ;
medicine. You’ll know it next morning
because you will wake up feeling fine,
your liver will be working; headache
and dizziness gone; stomach will be
sweet and bowels regular.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is entirely vege

Millions of people are using Dodson’s
Liver Tone instead of dangerous calomel
now. Your druggist will tell you that
the sale of Calomel is almost stopped

One of the men was convic
ted by his own confession,
which was made with brutal
frankness. The other was con
victed on evidence whicl left
no reasonable doubt in the
minds of the jury as to his
guilt. And now that it is all
over, even th ).se who felt that
summary vengeance should be
visited upon these men by
violent means should be glad
that no attempt was made to
prevent the law irom taking its
