Atlanta Choice Of Georgia

Atlanta, Jan. s. Without any
traces of jealousy, cities of this
southeastern section are rallying to
the idea of making Atlanta the
site of one of the new big regional
banks, and it begins 10 appear that
the concerted movement in this
direction win assure success where

If more than one city had put fore
ward conflicting claims.
The fact that Atlanta Should be
chosen is commented on in Colum-
bus, Macon and other cities. 1t is
recognized that Atlanta's geo.
graphical and railroad position as
we'll as the city's size and steady
growth make 1t the logical place
for the estab lishment of the region

The Columbus Clearing House
has adopted resolutions and sent
copies to the secretary of the treas
ury and the comptroller Of the
currency at Washington, urging the
claims of Atlanta.
Macon, through the Macon
Chamber of Commerce, announces
that it will throw its influence in
favor of Atlanta. 1t is expected
here that even tie claims of Saw

be withdrawn or at least notpress.

U. S. BIG GUN.
Is the Largest and Most Powerful in
the World.

the World.
Washington,-The largest and most
powerful naval gun ever designed has
just been completed for the United
states navy. 1t is a giant sixteen.
inch rifle, which, it became known
recently, has been constructed with
out publicity at the Washington Navy
Yard and Is now being put through
tests at the Indian Head proving
grounds on the Potomac, below this
city. ~.
II the new weapon proves to be the
success. as It's initial trials promise,
1t in all probability will be adopted
as the type of gun for the main bat
terry OF the three dreadnoughts au-
thorized at the last session Of con
gress.
The largest weapons now used in
the American navy are the fourteen
inch guns carried by the dread
thoughts of the Pennsylvania, Nevada
and New York class. The newest
battle ships OF the British navy carry
ffteen-inch rifles, eight Of them, in
four turrets.
1t is claimed that the s~ixteen-inch
guns will have a range Of 15 miles
and at least twice the penetrating
power OF the famous German howitz-
ers which have played such havoc
with the modern f~ortifications of Bel

That Census Estimate.

The census bureau in estimating
the present census OF Clarksburg in
side its corporate limits evidently
Disregard the percentage of increase
shown at the end OF the. 1910 ten
year period, else it would have given
Clarksburg much larger population
now than it did give it.
In 1900 the census of Clarksburg
was officially reported as 1850 and
Ia 1910, 9,201, howing a rate of in
crease of more than 1927 per cent.
Using that rate Of percentage, the
present population of Clarksburg in
side its corporate limits should be at
least 1857 instead of only 1884
as stated by the census bureau.
Instead OF using percentage
basis in estimating the growth Of the
city, the census bureau took
the entire increase in ten years as
it's basis and then simply took four
tepths OF the increase ami added II
to 9,201, a method as crude as 1t is
unjust.
The census department overlooked
the fact that Clarksburg showed by
the 1910 census most remarkable
increase in percentage, while other
cities in the state had only a very
ordinary percentage increase.

ChudhotsI Ailments.

The Washington. Pa, Reporter is
numbered among the journals which
Internationally believe that it Is
neither necessary nor wise to allow
the contraction OF such diseases as
mumps, measles, whooping cough
and the like by children. An expo
sltIon Of the doctrine in its editorial
columns Is prompted by an unusually
large number OF deaths in its COM
munity during the last several
weeks as a result of complications
following those and other children's
diseases. Says the Reporter:
Is 1t not about time FOR everyone
TO recognize the fact that measles,
whooping cough and humps are not
simple little harmless ailments abso-
lutely necessary to the proper rear
ing of the young? Is 1t not about
time for the people generally to APP
preciate the fact that the doctors
have already appreciated and ac-
knowledged that these ailments are
dangerous and deadly and that Ii is
nothing short of downright wicked
ness to insist on children being ar
alcted by them?

parent believed 1t the part of duty
TO take pains to have children in

GREAT DEMAND
For Male Stenographers and
TypeWriterS in the Service
of the Government.

WASHINGTON, D. O., May L.
The United States Civil Service Com
mission announces that while it has
no difficulty in securing sufficient fe-
male stenographers and typewriters
to meet the needs Of the departments
at Washington, the supply Of male
eligibles has not been equal to the
demand. Young men who are at least
1S years of age and who are willing to
accept the usual entrance salaries
which are $s4O and 5000 year, have
excellent opportunities for appoint
ment. While the entrance salaries
are low, advancement is REASONABLY
rapid to those meriting it. The exam
nations, which any competent stenog-
rapher should be able to pass, are
held each month in the year, except
December, at the principal cities Of
the United tSates.
Full Information in regard to the
examination may be secured by ad-
dressing the United States Civil Ser

A.Law That Benefts.

AS dispatches say, unlike the other
disastrous mine explosions in this
state, the widows, children and other
dependents OF the Eccles disaster viii
be taken care of by q fund created
by the employers and employees, made
possible when the legislature enacted
the workmen's compensation act,
which became effective October j,
1918. At che present time this fund
has about $S25,000,r part of which has
been invested. Persons connected
with the workmen's compensation
fund estimated the Eccles mine dis
aster has caused an obligation OF not
less than 100000 A comparatively
small amount VIII be needed immedi-
ately.
The law provides that in the case of
the death Of an employee the widow
shall. receive $50 month as long as
she lives and does not remarry, and
S. month for each child under the
age OF 10 years and until such child
reaches the age of 10 years, with a
maximum OF S35 a month to any widow
and her children. BY remayriage the
widow not only cuts herself off but
also cuts of any compensation that
might thereafter be due any Of her
children under the age OF Is years.
An examination Of the list OF names
of those taken from the Eccles mine
and those entombed shows that there
will be not less than 100 widows, and
at least 200 children under tho age
of 10 years who will become depend
ents under the woFkmep's Scompen-
sation fund The workmen's COM
pehsation fund will prove Godsend
to these widows and orphans at
Eccles, and every effort will be. made
TO. pay the claims as quickly as each
case can be put into shape.

The Yonngster,s summer.

The youngsters summer Is some
thing to think about just now, AS
an exchange says, schools days for
the present term will soon be over.
Have you made any plans for the
summer vacation insofar as your
children are concerned2 Or have
You just decided to let the matter go
and let the youngsters work ont
their own destiny in the weeks OF
idleness Turing the hot weather?
The children should have rest
from their school work, during the
summer vacation time. But that
does not mean LEY should be per-
mItted to run Wild, being a menace
10 their own best interests and pos
stbly a pest to their neighbors.
The children can have perfectly
good ana enjoyable summer vacation
and at the same time submit to a
little supervision over 1air activities
which will prove beneficial to all con-
cerned. Give the growing youngsters
some little occupation during the va
cation days. They do not need hard
work and should not have 1t either,
but something definite to employ a
part OF their idle hours will be found
well worth while and will do good
for the youngsters ana for the older
folk also. Summer gardens are
among the numerous suggestions
made for this summer vacation en-
ployment, but that is only one suE-
gestion and every parent can work
out the best plan for his own chill
dren in view OF the particular cir
f0tiTnct a ncns in hiG own nn1a
The thing is to give some reason
able direction to the vacation activ-
tiles, some direction which will
make the summer mean something
beside mere waste OF time and mis-
chieyous idleness to the growing
children.

Spray to Avoid eWormy, AppIes.

Now that apple blossoms are swell
ing and almost ready to burst the
careful orchardist will prepare to
fight the Cooling moth. The injury
cansed by this moth will not be APP
parent at this season and the moth
itself may not even be seen since 1t
generally does its work at night. But
the eggs deposited here and there
over the surface of the apple, while
the latter lie still in the blossom, will
soon hatch and the small larya will
enter the blossom end to- begin its
work OF destruction which finally ends
in worthless fruits. II some OF your
apples colored up extra early last
summer and then fell to the ground a
few weeks later, displaying brown
worm-holes penetrating the surface,
1t is safe to assume that your orchard
is troubled with Cooling moths.
From the foregoing 1t will be seen
that the codllng moth spray must be
given at very special time, namely,
Just before the blossom end OF the
apple closes up or, as is usually rec
commended, Just as the petals are fall
ing. from the blossoms. The time for
spraying should be carefully watched
and a spray containing two or three
pounds OF arsenate of lead to fifty
gallons OF water must be thrown upon
the tree with some force so as to
enter the blossom end of the young
fruits.
II the. work is thoroughly done, one
spray may control the Cooling moth,
but usually 1t will be found necessary
TO spray once or even, twice again at
at later date.

plete spraying Instructions, write the
Extension Department, College of
Agriculture, West Virginia University.
