WEAVER TAKES WITNESSSTAND IN OWN BEHALF Finding Defects at Julietta—Says Father Filed Claim. Windsor J. Weaver, contractor, charged with presenting false claims to the county, today took the witness stand in Criminal Court and described conditions of two wings at Julietta, county hospital for insane, constructed by George A. Weaver & Son, when he inspected the place after being informed by John L. Griffith, former county engineer, of complaints about the construction. Weaver testified he found a slight fracture around brick work near a beam in the attic and found part of the wall broken away from the concrete. Concrete had disintegrated on the surface about five-eighths of an inch, he said. He said he found no bulges in maple wood floors as charged by the State. , Posts Out of Plumb On examination of the roof "structure Weaver said he found some of the purline posts shifted at the top and out of plumb from three to five inches. He said the roof of the west wing was sagged near where it joined the old building. Special Judge Charles Wiltsie .overruled objection of Prosecutor I William H. Remy, when Merle N. A. Walker asked Weaver if he took steps to remedy the defects: ‘II immediately set about to make necessary repairs,” Weaver said. He said five or six carpenters were employed to fix the sag. Father Filed Weaver said he personally did not present the claim to the<county for $17,673 for materials and labor said to have been used in construction of jjj|| ,^2L at 5 o’clocH? * A NOTHER day’s work done! • Now, for a regular dinner—and a good time with the wife and kiddies! Guess we’ll see a movie, go for a walk in the park or take a ride. Bet my wife has a fine juicy steak and potatoesgood cold buttermilk and hot rolls —and pie. Oh, Boy! makes my mouth water just to think of it. Is that /the way you feel at 5 P. M.? Or, are you iust too played out for any good when your day’s work is over? If quitting time isn’t really beginning time for you, then it’s a sure sign that your entire system is starving for healthy, rich, red blood. And this is just as sure a sign that you need S. S. S. You've 3imply got to build up your blood. For 100 years S. S. S. has been proving that a run-down system, rheumatism, loss of weight, loss of appetite, sleeplessness and nervousness, just as—■kin eruptions—boils, f A pimples, pale 1 plexion and a low- y j / sred vitality, are all the result of blood \ / weak in red cells. Onoe let S. S. S. get to work and the joy of living will come back. 5 P. M. will have a different meaning to you. Get S. S. S. today. All iruggists sell it. The larger size is more economical.
