the envy of the snowy and icy regions
of the other states.

day quilting session today at the lit
tie white church. They are a busy

Quite a commotion seems to be
stirred up in regard to the special
election on the Foster jitney fran
chise and over the attempt to recall
Councilman Roy Cox. There seems
to be a tendency to stir up trouble in
the city council. Mr. Cox is an hon
est, straight man. in the opinion of
all his friends and if a recall is need
ed on any one there is plenty of good
reason for one or two others, who
have, a history since they have been
elected to the council. Let us have
peace and harmony and work for the
city's interest, not for personal spite,
Having an, election to settle the Fos
ter jitney affair will cost the taxpay
ers a few hundred dollars for what
the city council had already settled
Simply to satisfy a certain class of
disgruntled politicians, the election is
called. Let it be snowed under as
hard as the city elevator toll was set
tled. We believe the P. R. L. & P.
will do what it has promised and
should the Foster franchise carry,
the electric line will probably carry
passengers to Portland for 1G cents
one way or 25 cents a round trio,

What to Do for Bad Colds
If you want a cough medicine that
gives quick and sure action in heal
ing colds, coughs or croup, get Foley's
Honey and Tar. It heals inflamed
or swollen membranes in throat, chest
or bronchial tubes; breaks up tight
coughs, loosens the phlegm, makes
breathing easier, stops tickling in
throat. W. F. Thomas, Summerville,
Ga., writes: "Foley's Honey and Tar
is a most efficient remedy for coughs,
Hoarseness, etc. I have used it with
excellent results." Jones Drug Co.
