GEORGIA is DOING Her
PART IN WORLD WORK
Some Events of Historical
Note.

Some Americas people perhaps do
not know that many of the greatest
inventions of the age are the work
of Georgians, who led the way in
many events of historical note.
The first American prize captured
in the Revolutionary war was by
Georgians July 10, 1875, at Tybee, and
part of the powder was used at the
battle of Bunker Hill.
The first boat to move by steam
was invented by William Longstreet
and made her trial trip in 1890, and
carried twenty persons
The first steamship to cross the At
lantic was the Savannah, owned by
Savannah merchants, and sailed from
Savannah in 1919.
The discoverer of anaesthetics was
Dr. Crawford Long.
Wren the railroad from Augusta to
Charleston was built it was the long
est railroad in the world.
1t was a Georgia Indian, Seguoyah
or George Guess, who made the Chero-
kee alphabet, the one great Indian
achievement that has been of lasting
good
The first cotton gin was made by
Eli Whitney, and Mrs. Green on her
Georgia plantation on the Savannah
river, in 1871. There are 5000 in the
state, now.
The first sewing machine was made
by Rev. Frank Goulding, of South
Georgia
The first female college in the
world to bestow degrees on women
is at Macon, and was chartered in
1926

JAPAN HURTING
TRADE IN MANCHURIA
Pushing Forward Despite
Agreement.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. I'll
(SpeciaD The advance of Japan in
Manchuria has for some time been
watched by this Government with
reference to its effect upon American
commerce and the integrity of China
In spite of Japan's assent, at the
opening of the war with Russia, to
the late Secretary Hays note on the
integrity of China, Japan has pushed
steadily ahead in its acquisition of
territory, has practically occupied
Korea, and is gaining a foothold in
Manchuria, which, it is feared, may
mean permanent occupation.
China, it is understood, has laid
the situation before the Washington
Government, and Minister WI will
take it up in person with the State
Department and the White House
on his arrival here At the same time
large commercial interests through
out the country have appealed to the
Government against the discrimina-
ton of the Japanese protectorate
against American goods in favor of
Japanese where the two enter into
competition. Gradually the American
commercial world has grown to APP
preciate the value of the Manchurian
field.
