THOMASVILLE, Ga, June7 - An
interesting feature in connection with
the establishment of the new Dixie
Highway through Georgia is the fact
that the club women of the state in all
the counties through which it passes,
will lend their efforts towards beautl-
flying the roadway. This statement is
authorized by Mrs. 2. l. Fitzpatrick Of
this city, president of the Georgia Fed
Grafton of Women's clubs, who has re-
quested that the civic departments of
all these clubs unite with the county
authorities in this work. The special
work of these club women will be to
see that trees are planted along the
sides of the roadways wherever they
are needed, that all growth that de-
tracts from the beauty or attractive
ness of the roadway be cut away and
replaced where necessary with other
growth OF course all work TO be done
by the clubs will be cooperative with
the county officers and the road build

ALLIES REPULsEO
WITH HEAVY Loss
(By Associater Press.)

CONSTANTINOPLE, June Ito
days official Turkish statement gives
details of desperate fighting on the
peninsula of Gallipoli, in which the
allies are said to have been repulsed
after sustaining heavy losses. Turk
ish losses were also considerable,
though greatly minimized by the shell
tered positions of Ottoman troops, who
continue on the defensive.
The French and English infantry at
tacks had the support of strong
squadron of warships, as well as how
itzers, which have been landed near
Seddul Bahr, but even the CALLING fire
from these was insufficient to oust the
defenders from their trenches. When
the infantry charges were resorted to,
Turk machine guns cut great holes in
the ranks of the allied troops, who
were finally compelled to seek refuge
in their own trenches. The battle
ground this morning was covered with
English and French dead.

visitors are being made. The big jubi-
lee will be the biggest stunt pulled
off by south Georgia city in years.
With a program of events that will
keep things humming all day long, the
visitors will have plenty to make them
enjoy their stay in the city. Cities
along the highway from the Tennessee
line to Florida have notified Secretary
Hyman that they are going to send
representatives TO the big celebra-
ton.
With five thousand visitors in the
city on the Fifth the merchants are
positive that they will do a land-office
business. Extra clerks will be in de-
mand on that day to handle the crowd
Americus will reap a golden harvest
from the shoppers that attend the cell
ebration.
Both the Seaboard and the Central
of Georgia have agreed to put on spec
ial rates on that day. With the fea-
ture program, consisting of the big
auto parade, the pubic speaking, a
ball game and the big fancy street
ball, there will be plenty doing and
visitors Will be drawn from cities
all over south Georgia.
Americus merchants and citizens
realize that to stage such celebra-
ton will take money. They are re-
spending right royalty to the commit
tee raising funds for the occasion. But
additional money must be in sight be-
fore the success of the occasions is
assured.
A full attendance tonight at the
meeting is desired so that plans may
be perfected for the celebration. Amer
icus must make a success of this big
event at any costs.

Action Between Russian Baltic Pa.
troll and German Warships Convey
ing Troops Near Entrance to Gulf
of Riga, Results in Great Victory
For Slavs-BattIe SquadrOns Appar.
emily Not Engaged.
(By Associated Press.)

LONDON, June THE Petrograd
correspondent of the London Evening
Times, telegraphing early today, says
naval battle between hostile squad
rons has been fought in the Baltic
Sea near the entrance of the Gulf Of
Riga, and that the Russians, who sur
prised the enemy succeeded in totally
dispensing the German squadron, COM
posed mostly of light warships. The
hostile squadron was engaged in con-
voying several transports loaded with
troops, most of these being sunk dur
ing the action.
Authentic reports from the scene Of
the encounter say one large unnamed
German vessel besides several trans
port were sunk by the fire of the Rus
sian ships, composed mainly of small
patrol vessels, though it is believed
Slavic submarines also participated in
the action. The loss of life sustained
in the sinking of the transports can
not be accurately estimated early to-
day, but undoubtedly, will be heavy.
An auxiliary ship attached to the Rus
sian squadron, was sunk by the fire Of
the Germans warships before they
escaped.
1t is the prevailing belief here that
the Kaiser has planed to invade Rus
sia from the Baltic provinces, and
that he will again attempt to land
troops behind the fortified line guard
ing the frontier. Riga, the probable
destination of the transports sunk by
the Russian fleet, is strongly fortified,
but a landing in that vicinity might
have been effected but for the appear
ance of Russian warships which frus-
trated the German plans entirely.
Patrol vessels scouting in the Baltic
recently reported the majority of the
German warships concentrated at
Kiel since the brush with the British
off Heligoland early in the war, had
left the Baltic and passed into the
North Sea, but there has been no re-
Taxation of vigilance upon the part of
the Russians, according to the Times
correspondent. Much of the patrol
work is being done by Russian subme.
rines, it is asserted, many of these
vessels having been constructed at Lii
bau and Riga since the war began. The
admiralty, at noon, had issued
no official statement concerning the.
naval encounter referred to above.

(By Associated Press.)

LONDON, June 7.-Since the capture
of Przemysl, the Germans apparently
have brought heavy reinforcements in
to the west-and there are distinct in
dications today of the resumption Of
German offensive operations in north
ern France. Nevertheless, French re-
ports this afternoon show slow and
uninterrupted progress by allied troops
through considerable section north
of Arras.. Important gains have been
attained by the allies north of the
Aisne, but correspondents have not
been permitted to telegraph details OF
the movement.
Severe hand-to-hand fighting accom-
panied the French advance in the
Aisne region, the Teutons fighting gal
lantly and falling back only when
overwhelmed by superior numbers.
Artillery fire, heretofore such val
uable aid to the Germans was rem
dered wholly ineffective, so close were
the contending forces during the whole
engagement. Machine guns, pouring
their deadly missiles into the ad-
vancing Frenchmen, were literally
overwhelmed by the oLcoming mass
of humanity, and rendered useless by
the victors. Thousands of dead cover
the battlefield this afternoon, accord
ing to authentic accounts.
Germans Advancing in Galicia.
In the east, the Austro-German ar
my continues its spectacular advance
from Przemysl though the movement
is regarded here as a political one, the
idea of the Germans being to exert
influence upon Rumania, which coun-
try is reported as on the verge OF
throwing it's strength into the scales
for the allies. At Bucharest great pol
itical agitation has become manifest
since the Austro-German successes
restored control of Galicia to the
Dual monarchy, and diplomatic influ-
ence is being used in the effort to
persuade Rumania to maintain its a.
titude of neutrality. A long-standing
dispute with Russia regarding Ru-
mania's Black Sea territory is re-
garded in certain circles as the only
obstacle in the way of that nation at
tacking Austria, and the Germans have
seized upont he opportunity presented
to prevent a settlement of this old
dispute.
Russian Victory Near kOlmea.
Official and other advices from Pet
rograd late today announce Russian
successes of more or less Importance
along the river Pruth in the vicinity
of Kolmea. The Austro-German ad,
vance guard which successful crossed
the Pruth at that point, was forced
to re-cross the stream during today's
fighting, abandoning a small quantity
of supplies. Machine guns, which the

INVOCATION

(By Wendell P. Stafford, from the
Atlantic Monthly.)
o Thou whose equal purpose runs
In drops of rain or streams of suns,
And with a soft compassion rolls
The green earth on her snowy poles;
o Thou who keepest in thy ken
The times of flowers, the dooms of
men,
Stretch out a mighty wing above
Be tender to the land we Lover
If all the huddlers from the storm
Have found her hearthstOne wide
and warm;
If she has made men free and glad,
Sharing, with all, the good she had;
If she has blown the very dust
From her bright balance to be just,
Oh, spread a mighty wing above
Be tender to the land we love!
When in the dark eternal tower
The star-clock strikes her trial hour,
And for her help no more avail
Her sea blue shield, her mountain
mail,
But sweeping wide, from gulf to
lakes,
The battle on her forehead breaks,
Throw Thou a thunderous wing
above
Be lightning for the land we love!
