Coffee is the one item of every meal
that men discuss with knowledge and
enthusiasm.
They may not know what kind of
' "fibufnia'de the bread, the rolls or the
pastry, nor may they grow excited
over whether the potatoes were grown
in Maine or Texas.
But every one of them knows
whether the coffee is good...or not so
good.
The secret of All Gold popularity
with both men and women is that it
is always RIGHT.
Whether served for breakfast*
lunch, dinner or with a
“snack,” it just touches
the spot.
The housewife who
serves it knows its uniform
quality NEVER varies. It is
good because it must be
good. And she knows that
anv meal, whether served
only to the family or to
guests, is bound to be an un-
qualified success .if accom- .,.

One bottle of Kruschen Salts (lasts

will prove of vast benefit to people

bring about body activity—increase

There was a recor<L breaking crowd :
, at Oliver Springs church Friday
i night. >
The program was exceptionally,
good. The primary folks in their j
“Mother Goose Book” piece were love-

ally rhymes. ,
“Fording It” with, Otho Warren
and Dayle Reel was ‘good) In fact
everything was fine, but of course the
negro minstrel was the most amus-
ing. Varence Cozart and Otho War-
ren sent the audiance into gales of
laughter in the introductory piece and
from then on it was a scream.

gave prizes to the leaders of the
grades in his room. Willie Velle Hill
made highest average in the 4th, L.
C. Echols in the 5th., and Wallace
Baird in the 6th.
We take this means in behalf of the
patrons of the school to thank the
teachers for one of the most success-
ful terms we have ever had. Also
for the honorable work <fl>ne by the
students and for the certificates of
merit awarded. We have ohe regret
and that is that we can not for a
surety announce that the same three
teachers will be with us again. They
have been offered the opportunity
and we surely hope they will accept.
