W. ALEXANDER, Representative
The writer had the pleasure a
few days ago to visit in the home
of Mr. Jess Mooney and family.
We had been complimented with
fine grapes fro his vineyard, and
while there went out to see his
large orchard of peaches, berry
vines and grapes. His vineyard
is indeed beautiful. He has sev-
eral rows, about 75 yards long,
and believe me, they are loaded
down with grapes of different
kinds. They are there by the
bucket, as evidence of what can
INDIGESTION
“My work is confining,
and often I eat hurriedly,
causing me to have indi-
gestion. Gas will form
and I will smother and
have pains in my chest.
“I had to be careful
what I ate, but after
someone had recom-
mended Black-Draught
and I found a small
pinch after meals was so
helpful, I soon was eat-
ing anything I wanted.
“Now when I feel the
least smothering or un-
comfortable bloating, I
take a pinch of Black-
Draught and get relief.”

RATES ON WORKERS’
INSURANCE GOING UP
STRAIGHT
and True As an Arrow
Every time anyone spends a dollar in this com-
munity, for any purpose whatever, that dollar goes
straight and true as an arrow,toward helping make
this a better place in which to live.
It helps to build new homes, better roads, new
schools, more churches. It makes possible the
%
construction, the maintenance and the enjoyment
of added comforts and conveniences for all of us.
We all want the better things of life. We
want this community of ours to grow and prosper.
We are taking a big step toward realization of
our desires if we remember and practice this sim-
ple plan.

AT HOME
WORK AND PLAY
Farm people work too many
hours, according to Dr. Seale
Harris, one of the South’s most
prominent physicians, who de-
clares that an eight-hour day is
needed on the farm as well as
elsewhere.
He thinks that the farmer gets
into the habit of working long
hours and consequently does not
put forth as effective efforts as
he would if he limited his daily
period of labor. Dr. Harris says:
“Farmers ought to be encour-
aged to work strenuously eight
hours a day then take more rest
and recreation, instead of work-
ing feebly ffiteen hours a day as
many of them do. ’ ’
While most farmers would re-
sent being told that they work
“feebly,” there is no doubt that
when one knows he is going to
stick on the job for fiteen hours
in a day he will not exert himself
as energenally as he would for
a shorter period.
Yirgorous work relieved by a
liberal amount of rest and rec-
reation seems to be a good form-
ula for health and efficiency.
Austin. — Carelessness of em-
ployes and employers is partially
responsible for the increased
workmen’s compensation insur-
ance rates which will become ef-
fective at midnight July 31, ac-
cording to W. S. Pope, state cas-

SPrimers sixes
never want
because it tabes six cylinders
to give the smooth, silent
p&iver that makes driving
really enjoyable
« mSSIiif
Drivers of sixes are spoiled
for anything less. Drivers
of sixes are sold on multiple cylinders.
They would no more think of giving up
“six” performance than any other real
advancement of motoring. For them, the
whole cylinder question has been settled.
Slip behind the wheel of a Chevrolet Six,
and you’ll know why these drivers feel as
they do. Step on the starter, let the motor
idle—and notice its silence. Throw in the
clutch, shift into “low”—and feel that
smoothness. Change into “second,” hit a
faster and faster clip, slip into “high,”
sweep along at top speed—then throttle
down to barely a crawl. The smoothness
and flexibility you always get are six-cyl-
inder smoothness, six-cylinder flexibility.
Annoying vibration is gone!
Over two million owners have tested and
proved this six-cylinder Chevrolet engine.
They have found tlwft it costs less for gas
and oil than any other. They have found
that it actually reduces upkeep costs, by
holding vibration to a minimum. They
know a six is better in every way—and they
would never be satisfied with less!
