The litigation which has just been de-

took the case to the federal supreme
'ourt. claiming that it involved viola
ton of our treaty with Germany and
that due process of law had not been
observed. The amount in the hands of

about $4,000 Mr.. Umbreit still is CON

Always One Way Open.

"Out Through the Only Way was the
subject of sermon delivered last night
in the Second Baptist Church by the pas
tor, Rev. E. Hez Sven. In the course of
his sermon Mr.. Sven drew attention to
the story OF q New England preacher
who rode home In q hearse after con-
Quoting burial rights over a friend. The
weather was bitterly cold, and as the
buggy In which the minister drove to the
funeral was without protection from the
elements he felt that to drive home in 1t
meant his freezing to death. He then
chose the novel method of escaping from
the dilemma by riding home in the
hearse. His act was derided, according
to Mr.. Sven. but he took advantage OF
the only course to escape.
when you are surrounded by sin and
vice and do not know how to escape"
said Rev. Mr.. SVEN in closing. there
is always one way left open to you. Ask
the Lord for help and He will give it to
you"

Talks of "Civil War in Industry

Civil War in Industry was the SUBJ
iect of an address last night by George
R. Kirkpatrick Of New York before
large audience at the Pyttian Temple.
The speaker said that in only one way
could the laboring man expect to free
himself from the slavery which now ex-
lists, and that was through the socialist
party. which stands for the principles Of
joint ownership of the means Of produc-
ton. equal opportunity of the use Of act
i've markets.
Mr.. Kirkpatrick said that Industrial
mastery was greater than any other.
Men that now wanted to work were not
allowed to do SO, and that there were
at this time over 100000 men out Of
employment who wanted work. This, he
said. was the outcome of overproduction
on account Of the vast amount Of ma
chinery which was now in use. which
made 1t possible to supply more goods
than the demand for them.
The speaker said that the socialist
party would gain more this year than
heretofore because people would now
listen to the socialist speakers.

Woman's work is being made easier.
Take the weekly wash, for instance. 1t
used to be an all day job, with the
woman getting up at 5 o'clock in the
morning to heat water for boiling clothes.
Now, she washes with Fels-Naptha soap
in cold or lukewarm water, and the whole
washing takes little longer than half the
time of the old way.
No boiling, no steaming suds, no hard
rubbing; and the clothes are cleaner and
fresher than ever before. Then, too, the
clothes last longer when washed with
Fels-Naptha-a lot of mending saved.
Follow directions for using
Fels-Naptha on the red and green wrapper.

a meteor crashed into the earth
was the experience of Willie Nc
Kinnon, 14-year old son Of August
McKinnon, of Duncan, Vancouver
Island. He was working in the
garden about half-past eleven and
heard rushing noise, as if train
were passing. AS the track was
not far away, he took little notice
of the sound until a moment after
he was half shocked by the con-
cussion as the meter struck the
earth, throwing the soil and rock
in all directions.
The boy says it felt as if there
was a slight earthquake, so great
was the tremor. When he saw that
something had fallen, he went over
and found a substance almost per,
fectly round and about 10 inches in
diameter. The surface of the me

resembled hierogylphics. 1t fel

Too Much For Her Chief.

young woman in his department
who was a friend Of his family.
One afternoon last winter she en-
tered the great mans Office with the
usual application. Unfortunately
the bead of the department was in
anything but good humor that
day. SO he farcd up instantly.
Upon my word" exclaimed he,
"you clerks are the bane Of my life !
YOU. He stopped short, as if re-
straining himself. Then he burst
out again with, 81 wish to goodness
you were a man"
The young woman flashed a glance
at him from a particularly fine pair
of eyes, and as a smile came to her
handsome face she replied, 'Mr.
Secretary, you are the first man who
ever wished that"
This was too much for the chief.
She got her promotion.

DIED,-On Tuesday morning,
September 8th, at the home of her
daughter, Mrs L M Sorrells, near
Hiram, our dear old grandmother,
Mrs Nancy Grigga, peacefully pass
ed away. Grandma was born in
Morgan county, Georgia, April
18th, 1912. She was married to
my grandfather, A P Griggs, on
March Oath, 1882. They lived in
Henry county until 1916, when
they moved to Cobb county, and
this has been their home ever
since. She joined the Methodist
church sixty-nine years ago, and
was faithful Christian until her
call to come up higher. Her Bible
was her daily companion, and we
shall never forget her counsel and
advice-to live right, and do unto
others as we would have them do
unto US. She never let an oppor-
tunity pass that she did not say a
word about her religion, and ever
admonished those with whom she
came in contact to leave off sin
and accept the Saviour whom she
had served so faithfully for these
many years. She had been in
feeble health for a long time be-
fore her death, and the past five
months she was confined to her
bed all the time. During this long
interval not d murmur ever escap-
ed her lips. For many years she
had expressed her Willingness to go
to her long sought home, but more
so since the death of her compan.
ion a little over four years ago.
Since then she has prayed and
longed to go with him, and among
Der last words were: "He's come
| am SO glad Hallalujahl Bless
my children" etc. No mother
ever loved her children better than
she did, and she never let an op-
portunity pass without giving them
advice. She was the mother of
fourteen children, three of whom
died in infancy and five have died
since reaching manhood and wo.
manhood. She leaves six living
one daughter, Mrs Lou Sorrells. at
whose home she died; B w, A A
and John H Griggs, of this county

were present at her funeral except
the latter named. A large con-
course of friends and relatives at
tended the funeral services, which
were held at Macland Oh Wednes-
day, September 9th, there being
four generations of her family
present. The funeral services we're
conducted by Rev E D Hale, as
sisted by Rsvs Thomas Owen. of
