MAYOR WOODWARD HAS A
LITTLE WAR OVER WAR

Atlanta, Oct D.-Mayor Woodward

lam NJ. Slaton are involved in little
war over the way. 1t started because
a delegation of German citizens vas
mad over the superintendent il
structions city teachers to discuss
the European war with the pupils
and advised them to get the news out
o the papers.
When the Germal-An orleans rald
this letter, oXhlb ted by WON: a
teacher of German descent. they went
to the mayor in hurry and showed
the missive to the official.
Mayor Woodward at once address
ed a letter to he superintendent ad-
vising him that in view of President
Wilson's proclamation of neutrality
it would be well to refrain from dis
cussing such questions in the public
schools.
You should remember that we
have a, large German population who
are lovers of the Fatherland and that
they send their children to our
schools. 1t is not pleasant to them to
hear their country abused" wrote the
mayor.

compliments on the quality of
the cake, and what they say
goes. 1t was delicious. These
good people have cur sincere
thanks for this kindness and
thoughtfulness.
Mr.. Winchester said there We're
several motives that prompted
him to bring this present. He
brought it as a token of appre-
citation for what The Sentinel is
doing for the people of his sec
ton, and we assure. him that
whatever we can do for these
good people we will always do
with the gladdest hearts, and we
are truly grateful to hear that
what we are trying to do is ap-
preciated.
Mr.. Winchester stated that
some people had an idea that the
mountain people were nothing
but 'blockheads and clodhop-
pers,o and that they didn't have
and didn't know anything. But
we can assure him that anyone
who has that idea will but have
to go and be associated with
these people to find out they are
mistaken. Right in the foot
hills of these mountains that we
see every day there lives a peo-
pie than whom there is no better
on earth. In their veins flows
the purest Anglo-Saxon blood,
and from among them have
sprung some of our bravest, no.
blest and best men. There is a
no more free-hearted and hos
pitable people to be found any
where.

Let's Have a Clean Town.

Those who, for some reason,
have not done their spring clean
ing will please do so as soon as
possible. We cannot tell how
much it may be worth to our
health and how much it adds to
the appearance of individual
places and the town as a whole.
All the merchants and others
will please not just sweep loose
papers nstreet or back of stores,
but will please burn them or put
them in receptacles so that the
trash man can get them. If
just swept out and not burned
or put in a box or barrel they
will be blown all over town and
a dozen men could not keep up
with them.
Let us make Pickens one of
the cleanest towns in the state
and one of the most healthy,
and that can easily be done if all
will do their duty, and I know
they will.

CONGRESSMAN SELL
HAS NEW MEASURE

Washington, D. c., Aug. AFTER
months of study in which he has
weighed the interests of the old SOL
dier from every angle, Congressman
Sam R. Sells of the first district of
Tennessee has introduced bill in the
house which he believes will bring the
relief intended by the Sherwood PEN
sion bill but which that measure fell
far short Of affording. The bill reads:
THAT any person who served in
the military or naval service of the
United States during the civil war and
received an honorable discharge, and
who, from disease or other causes re-
sulting from his disability, is. now un-
able to perform manual labor, shall
be paid a pnsion under this act of $50
per month without regard to length
of service or age"
"The administration of the Sher-
wood act" said Mr.. Sells, proved a
bitter disappointment to soldiers as
not one in fifty who makes applica-
tion under the disability clause has
his application favorably acted upon
This is because they are at this late
day, when their comrades are dead or
failing in memory, unable to produce
the proof that is required. Under the
provisions of this bill all that is
necessary to secure 81 per day is for
the soldier to show that he isunable
toperformmanual labor. The country
owes this to it's soldiery, and this is
a time when this fact should be accen-
tuated more than ever before"
Pension legislation for this session
of congress is closed, but Mr.. Sells
has the assurance of the majority of
the members of the house that the
bill will be passed at the next session.
The Sherwood law provides $50
per month but it must be shown that
the disease or disability was incurred
from service. Such obstacle will be
removed by the Sells bill now before
the house.

RICH ZINC MINES
At EMBREEV|LLE

Nashville, July 31.-Dr. A. H. Par
due, Chief of the Department of the
State Geological Survey, returned to-
day from East Tennessee, where he
made an examination of the zinc
mines at Embreeville. These mines
have been worked for at least seven
ty-five years for iron ore, but about
two years ago they were discovered
to contain enormous deposits of zinc.
At that time, however, the Embree
Iron Company became involved in
financial difficulties, which resulted in
the appointment of a receiver. Some
time ago the company secured the
consent of the court to ship carload
of zinc ore to the best known market
in order to determine it's real value.
The ore was sold for 1908, and follow
ing the transaction the court granted
an order to the receiver permitting
him to ship the ore for a period of
three months, which was done, and in
that ime the debt of the company was
completely wiped out
Before the discovery of zinc two
iron companies were in operation at
Embreeville, the Embree Iron Com
pany and the Tennessee Zinc & Lead
Company. but since the discovery of
zinc both concerns are now contining
their operations altogether to the
mining of zinc. When the mines were
being worked for iron alone the oper-
ators used the hydraulic process, and,
of course, in that way great quanti-
ties of zinc were wasted. DR.. Pardue
says the minest contain enormous de-
posits of zinc. and that the operating
companies are preparing to put in
aew and modern machinery for the
development of the property. The
companies own about 1000 acres Of
land at Embreeville, and have options
IN other large tracts. Embreeville is
in Washington county, of which Jones'
bero is the county seat
