THEFLOWEJL SHOW The first flower show in Sylvg,! held in connection with the Live j stock and Poultry Show, but spoi: i sored by the Twentieth Century Club j is indecd.au event. It is di.tino'.lv worth wliile for. anyone to visit llw rooms where the flowers are on play; and the Journal wishes to con gratulate those who are track of the movement anrl who have done the work. There are groat possibilities in the thing. It wiil grow from year to year, until it will soon be difficult to house the thriving youngster, fhe encouragement of growing of flow ers, and of making lovely Jaokso.j county still more beautiful, is 'a mofet worthy enterprise. Every home, every, public building, every school should be, and doubtless will be sunvunded with lovliness of flowers and shrubs. Along o.ir highways should bloom the flowers, that grow better here than anywhere, to the delight of our own people, and those who travel this way. SUPERIOR COURT STARTS MONDAY Jackson County Superior Court convenes Monday moaning for a two cases. The first week will be devoted the trial of both criminal and civil cases. The first week wll be devoted to criminal cases, and the second is for civil ones, provided the criminal doc Ket is cleared in time.

T&ANkPA VATICAN Few people realize that the Vatican, the residence of the Pope at Rome, is the largest and richest palace in the ?world. It contains .11,000 rooms of all sites, including halls, chapels and living apartments. There are 80 grand staircases and 200 smaller ones. Nobody can estimate the value of the treasures stored in this build ing, but they include all of the gifts of jewels and precious metals which have been made to the successive Popes by devout Catholics for the past 1,500 years. There are tens of thousands of paintings and art ob jects each worth a fortune. "Rockefeller himself could hardly pay for the tapestries and paintin s in the Vatican and Henry Ford would be bankrupt before _ he had half finished, if he started to purchase these treasures at their actual value," iays James T. Nichols, who recently returned from Rome. * * * GRENFELL The young college men who have been assisting Dr. Grenfell in his medical mission work among the j!eep-sea fishermen of Labrador are on their way "out." The ice is clos ing in behind them and for the next niae months the man who has given ms me to nerpingcrr.c-rs- wrrtsfe iso lated from the world, as he has been every winter for nearly forty years. Grenfell was a young doctor in London. Dwight L. Moody, the famous American evangelist, was speaking there. Happening to pass ^he hall, Grenfell dropped in, heard Moody's message, stayed to talk, de cided that from that night on he must devote his life to the service of others. The medical mission to the fisher folk was the result. Great Britain has honored her na tive son by conferring knighthood upon him. He is Sir Wilfred Gren fell new in his old age. America has given liberally of money and man power to aid in the work. The ex ample which this self-sacrificing doctor has set has had and still has a quiet but powerful influence on thou sands of other young men who are trying, in their own selected sphere, to emulate Grenfell. * * ? GAMES Human nature demands ptay. In time of stress and worry, play is the best relief from nervous strain. That accounts for the sudden and immense popularity of the newest outdoor game, "Tom Thumb golf." It is es timated that, even in this financially difficult year of 1930, more than one hundred million dollars has been spent in building and equipping Tom Thumb golf courses. They are everywhere, and attract tens of thousands who have never played real golf. Cotton-seed hulls dyed green are used for the fairways and greets of these miniature golf courses. Another current sport is the re vival of the old game of backgammon. For years nobody heard of backgam mon; the younger generation didn't know what the curious design on the back of the checkerboard meant. Now fashionable society has taken it up, books on backgammon are being pub H&frea, rules and instruction* are be ing broadcast by radio and news papers are starting barfcgMB&ion columns. ? * * CHINA Gvil war in China is not so nrioas as newspaper dispatches suggest. China is a huge country, covering almost half as much ground as the United States and having three times our population. Disturbances in one region have little effect on distant parts. It is surprising, nevertheless, to read in the U. S. Commerce Reports that new apartment houses from 7 to 20 stories high are being built in Shanghai, that a commercial broad casting station is under construction and another by the Nanking govern ment, and ifeat other new enterpriM* are being undertaken. China is far from being paralysed by its internal wars, and may oome out of them stronger than before thty began. * * ? ROADS The newest thing in road cotwfruc tion is to build tnem of iron. The first iron nigh way of importance is under construction in Sangamon county, III., near Springfield. An iron trough is laid on the flattened high way surface, the corrugated sheets of the bottom of the roadway being welded to the iron curbing at either side. This trough is partly filled with a layer of sand mixed with a mastic binder, to form a cushion for the surface, which may be concrete 4>rick or some other paving material. Road building m America is still a new art. Old methods useful in horse-and-wagon days are useless for motor roads. In time the ideal road will be discovered and used every where. Meantime, every new idea is worth trying out fygric Theatre FRIDAY and SATURDAY Double Feature: William Powell in "SHADOW OF THE LAW" and Matt Moore in "Gall of the West" also Mickey Mouse Cartoon MONDAY and TUESDAY COMMON CLAY" Comedy "Big Time Charley" Fox News WEDNESDAY and THURSDAY Claudette Colbert in ? k "MANSLAUGHTER" Comedy "Mickey's Wanaore" >MILL SELL good 104 acres fum well located in Towns County, Ga.

LAND-MARKS OF THE BODY A farmer and stockman came to consult me some days ?go, saying that his right kidney was giving him almost un bearable pain?could not walk for pain, like toothache! I had "'m point out the exact location of greatest severity; he re moved his tobacco and placed his thumb just within the en hance of his right hip pocket: "there's where she's givin me ne devil right now," he declared. This of course was the right "sciatic notch." The great tiatic nerve from its origin in the lumbar spine, emerges and comes fairly near the surface here. I explained his mistake at once; if the patient stands erect, and draws a line horizon talayound body at the level of the umbilicus?the right idney s lower extremity would touch the line; the left kidney 's above that level. The pressure of the liver oti the right, Causes the slight difference in level. The "small of the back" is below the kidneys. Thefre is, ? most never pain in either kidney, because of the lack of ?ensory nerves there. Practically all backache is due to abuse 0 muscles or nerve-fiber of the lumbo-dorsal, lumbar, or ?*cra! regions. Every one should know the "sciatic notch." The big erve-trunk that occupies it?and the path of fhis nerve 1own the outer-rear-quadrant of the thigh, branching at 3ck of knee, and on to ankle and foot.

AUTUMN: A DIRGE By Percy Bysshe Shelley The warm sun is failing; the bleak wind is wailing; The bare boughs are sighing; the pale flowers are dying; And the Year On the earth, her death-bed, in a shroyd of leaves dead, Is lying. Come, months, come away, From November to May; In your saddest array Follow the bier Of the dead, cold Year, And like dim shadows watch by her sepulchre. The chill rain is falling; the nipped worm is crawling; The rivers are swelling; the thunder is knelling For the Year; The blithe swallows are flown, and the lizards each gone To his dwelling; Conv., months, come away; Put on white, black, and gray; Let your light sisters play? Ye, follow the hier Of the dead, '.old Year, And make her grave green with tear bUtmatvmol Sunday School Lesson for October 5 ZACHARIAS AND ELISABETH ?LIFE IN A PIOUS JEWISH HOME Luke 1:5, 6, 57-66, 76-80 i Rev. Samuel D. Price, DD. Great men and women whose lives are recorded in the New Test ament, will be observed during this closing quarter of the year. For about 400 years, there had been an absence of direct, recorded manifestations of God to any of His people. This does not mean that the ! Father had withdrawn from inti mate associations with his beloved. < The studied picture of the home of Zacharias and Elisabeth shows that He was an intimate guest therein. But now the long awaited fullness if time had arrived when God would give fuller revelations of His plan of salvation to a needy world. Zacharias was glad for the strength with which he might con tinue his ministries as a priest in the Temple at Jerusalem. Finally the supreme day arrived when the lot fell to him to enter the holy place alone and offer the incense while the people waited in the court. At last Zacharias came forth and raised his hands as he was about to pronounce the priestly benedic- ; lion, Numbers 6:24-26. But no sound came from those aged lips. ; As the people looked at him "They perceived that he had seen a vision in the Temple." ? ? None other than the angel Ga briel had met Zacharias with the \ bold announcement: "Thy prayer is heard." While Zacharias and Elisa- ? beth were happy in their love, which increased with advancing years, there had always been an eager desire that they might be blessed with a son. Now the aged . husband is told that he and Elisa- . beth are to have a son.
