JUDGE THOMAS ATTRACTS
ATTENTION OVER State

ATLANTA, Ca, June 8.--While it is
seldom that a congressman or can
diddate for congress attracts much at
tention outside his own particular dis
trict, Judge w. E. Thomas, of Valdos-
Ia, has injected feature in his plat
form which has been the subject Of
statewide comment, especially among
the farmers.
1t is the question of the right sort Of
marketing bureau, one that will
render efficient service. judge Thomas
does not believe enough strenuous
work has been done in this direction,
and he expresses confidence that with
the proper effort, a marketing agency
can be established that will do the
work.
Judge Thomas says the producers of
the south have been working too long
now for the benefit and enrichment of
the eastern manufacturers. He has
Investigated the situation, particularly
with regard to the products of his
own section, and is now working on
what he proposes shall be practical
plan to bring about better marketing
conditions for these as well as other
agricultural products of Georgia and
the south.
If Judge Thomas plan works out, It
will be far more than local affair, be-
cause in the application of it, it must
benefit the products of agriculture
throughout the country.

ONLY $4,000 PEOPLE
VISITED THE PLACE

sTRAFoRD-ON-ANON, June s.
Shakespeare's birthplace was visited
by only about $4,000 persons during
the past year as compared with $4,000
in the preceding year, and approx
mately $4,000 in years of peace. The
diminuition of visitors from America
was most marked, only 254 having
signed the register album as against
5000 the year preceding and an aver
age of over 1900 during the five
eyars prior to the war. The pressure
of the war also brought about a re-
duction in the number of admissions
to Anne Hathaway's cottage and New
Place.
The trustees of Shakespeare
birthplace at their annual meeting
elected the Earl of Plymouth a life
trustee in place of the late Lord
Ronald Sutherland-Gower Sir Sidney
Lee, who presided, expressed the
confident anticipation that American
visitors would come in their ordinary
number when the war was over.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, June s.
The last barrier to the construction of
the Dixie Highway between Nashville
and Chattanooga, along the originally
designated route has been removed,
and there is nothing APPARENTLY now in
the way for the speedy construction
of this important link in the highway.
This was the glad tidings which
Judge M. M. Allison, president of the
Dixie Highway Association brought
back with him from trip to Nash
vile. Judge Allison spent Thursday
in conference with Governor Rye and
Chairman Denton and other members
OF the Board of Control, regarding
sending a sufficient number of con-
victs to commence work on the Ham
ilton and Marion county sections of
the Suck Creek road, between Chatta-
Eooga and WhitewelI. Both of these
counties have agreed to use 100 eacn
of the state convicts. The commits
sioners of both counties state that the
building of this highway will be rush
ed through to an early completion.
Judge Allison has announced that the
work will start within fifteen days.
Marion county commissioners had
previously awarded the contract for
the construction of the Battle Creek
section of the highway from the Sequ-
atchie Valley to the top of the noun
tain.
With the highway built through
Hamilton and Marion counties, this
absolutely provides for the construc-
ton of the road between Nashville
and Chattanooga, which is the last bar
rier to be removed to thorough travel,
from Michigan to Florida. Franklin
county, under the direction of R. S.
Lander, as the engineer, is now at
work constructing it's section of the
highway from the top of Cumberland
Mountain at Sewannee, through Win
chester, to the Coffee county line. The
citizens of Tullahoma are already at
work on the section of the road i'll
Coffee county. Contracts for the
construction of two concrete bridges
have been awarded. Tullahoma cit
liens have subscribed q sufficient
amount to build their part of the
road and they have the machinery
with which to maintain it. Provision
has been made for the construction of
two miles through Moore county. The
citizens of Bedford county are under
bond to free their toll road. The
money is subscribed for a bridge and
provisions made for the completion of

FRINGE OSCAR TWICE WOUNDED

Prince Oscar, the Kaiser's fifth son, has twice been wounded since the war began, and it is reported that the state of his health prohibits his fur ther participation in the conflict. He was born twenty-eight years ago to- day, July 27. 1888, and was given a thorough military education. When hostilities broke out he accompanied the German army into Belgium, and received his first wound at Virton in September, 1914, For many weeks he was in hospital, and it was said that he was suffering from an affec- tion of the heart as we'll as from his wound. He returned to field duty in November, and was sent to the east ern front, narrowly escaping capture during the fighting in Poland. He also served in the Champagne region in France when the French were mak- ing an unsuccessful attack on the Teuton lines, and wrote book about his experiences in that campaign. Prince Oscars volume is said to have been a "best seller" in Germany. Last February, while serving on the east ern front Prince Oscar was again wounded, this time by shell sp1inters which struck his head and thigh. While the wounds were not of a seri- .ous nature, the Kaiser's physicians de- iclared that Oscars weak heart unfit ted him for further active service. Prince Oscar married, shortly before the outbreak of the war, the Countess Ina Bassewitz, who had been maid of honor to his mother. As his bride was not of royal blood, the marriage was a morganatic one. The Kaiser is said to have resolutely opposed the match for a time, but Prince Oscar had the aid and support of his mother in pressing the matter, with the ex- pected result The Emperor gave in and the ceremony was duly perform ed. The consent of the Kaiser was necessary as Prince Oscar. like the other members of the Hohenzollern family, agreed in writing, upon attain ing. his majority, not to wed without the approval of the head of the im- perial house. After gaining the per- mission of the Kaiser the Prince and the Countess had to overcome even more serious opposition, for the young lady's father, Count von Bassewitz
 premier of the grandy duchy of Mec- klenburg- -Schwerin, did not wish his daughter to contract '1eft-handed"
 marriage. Oscars wife is described as a beautiful and talented woman, with unusual ability as singer.
