BE LOYAL TO AMERICA.

Was America, as erected by such
men as Washington and Hamilton,
worth fighting for? Our forefathers
thought so-even to the death. Was
the perpetuity of our Union worth
fighting for? Our fathers and broth
ers thought so-even to death. Is Am
erica just as she is, under the tutelage
of those to whom Washington has be-
come a steel engraving and Hamilton
anathema, worth fighting for. She is

THE EMBEZZLING TOURISTS

1t is notorious that American citiz-
ems regard Uncle Sam as an easy
mark. And yet it seems as if patrio-
tism, decency and plain gratitude
ought to impel those whom Uncle Sam
helped home when the war started to
pay back the money advanced them.
The list of delinquents recently
made public by the federal treasury
department has given the country a
shock. If the citizens thus pilloried
are not ashamed of themselves, the
nation is ashamed of them. 1t was the
nation that provided the money. The
stranded tourists were in Europe for
their owr business or pleasure; it
vas an act of gratuitous benevolence
for the nation to lend them funds to
bring them safely home. The adj
vances we're accepted as loans. But it
seems that a great many citizens, even
while promising to repay them, really
regarded them as gifts. The most
shameful thing about it is that so many
hundreds of the tourists gave fcti-
tious names or addresses. Their ac-
ton was plain embezzlement.
The committee that disbursed the
$2,750,000 provided by congress may
have been careless, but it was hard to
be careful in such an emergency. The
committee trusted to American honor
with the result that Uncle Sam is
out several hundred thousand dollars,
and will be far less willing next time
to help citizens in distress.
There is no undue pressure or un-
pleasant publicity for those who rec
ognize the oblization and want to pay
when they can; but the others richly
deserve having their names printed
and having suits brough against them

sCHHE Of BEAUTIFUL PLAY
IS LAID IN GEORGIA
AUDIENCE ENJOYED "UNDER
SOUTHERN SKIES" HERE.

Americas people familiar with the
environs of Savannah enjoyed partic-
ularly the presentation here last night
at the Galax Theatre of the beautiful
comedy Under Southern Skies" with
pretty Mary Fuller in the leading role,
that of typical Southern girl in the
period preceding the War Between the
States. Capacity audiences filled the
Galax at every performance yester-
day, and a finer, more refined and ar
tistic picture has never been flashed
upon screen here. The beautiful
home, with its typically Southern as
pect, is the we'll known Shotter resi-
dence in Savannah, while lady prom
trent in the cast of characters is a
resident of that city. Those who saw
Mary Fuller in Under Southern
Skies" will be equally anxious to see
her here Saturday in her greater role
