SH|PBU|LDING
INDUSTRY HERE
VERY PROMISING
S. II. BROWN OF NEW YORK is
OPTIMISTIC OVER TWO NEW
COMPANIES HERE-THE TIME is
RIPE FOR WORK HE SAYS.

The present condition in the ship
ping world and general scarcity of
vessels, makes the shipbuilding indus
try here peculiarly of a promising ma
ture," said S. H. Brown of New York
CITY, president of the American Tie
and Timber company, whose main of
flee is here with branches in cities
all the way from New York to New
Orleans.
Mr.. Browns business interests hold
him close to the heart of the shipping
world and there are few men any,
where who have a more comprehen-
sive knowledge and understanding of
just what is needed and will succeed
in that line of industry at this time.
Coming in yesterday to pay a visit
to the Brunswick office Mr.. Brown
met many Of his old friends and ex-
pressed himself as being happy to be
back again, if only for short stay.
Mr.. Brown says his heart is close to
Brunswick and her people and he is
glad to see the local interests develop
ing an industry here that has such
wide promise just now He says there
is a strong sentiment in the north that
America should have merchant ma
rine to handle her exports and imports
which are the largest of any nation in
the world, while the American mer-
chant marine is almost nothing.
1t is of local interest to know that
the local office of the American Tie
and Timber company has done splen-
did business during the past few
months Members of the local office
yesterday told News representative
that they are entirely satisfied with
the volume Of business that has come
their way

Of birth
Every few days we get requests
from mothers in Brunswick for litera-
ture on How to Keep Baby Well and
our records show that many of the
children are not registered. Hereto
! fore the death rate has far exceeded
the birth returns. Our records show
| that the people of Brunswick are dying
off about twice as fast as there are
births. In reality this is not the case,
as the births are not being reported.
This Is wrong from two standpoints.
| First, 1T Is doing the children an ire
the outside world a very bad impress
sion of Brunswick.
There is law which sys: 1T shall
| be the duty of the attending physician
or midwife to file a certificate of
birth properly and completely filled
out, giving all particulars required by
this act, with the health officer within
ten days after the birth, and If there
is no attending physician or midwife,
| then it shall be the duty Of the father
or mother of the child, manager or
superintendent Of public or private in
stitutions in which the birth occurred
to notify the health officer within ten
days after the birth, of the fact that
birth has occurred
Hereafter this law is going to be
enforced as rigidly as we know how
and SO maybe there will not be such
another occurrence as that Of the
Brunswick boy now in England who
cannot prove his citizenship. We call
on the good people OF Brunswick to
help u.s."

cultivate and protect the ones that are
found valuable. There was a large
enrolment of members. who will like
ly be associated with the permanent
OrganiZa ton.
Mr.. Baynes is splendid talker and
a remarkable organizer The people
who heard him yesterday feel much
deeper interest in bird life and will
take more interest hereafter.
DR.. Hagerman who will lecture this
afternoon is a well known Methodist
minister of Iowa, and is one of the
really great orators of the age. Many
chautauqua orators are there because
of something they have done that ad-

entertainer on the entire program as a
lecturer
This evening will be the final close
of the chautauqua and Julia Claussen
is the star. There is nothing to be
said now that can add much to her
fame and her name alone will assure
a crowded tent tonight Go early and

BRUNSWICK BOY In LONDON
MAY BE DRAFTED FOR ARMY
FOR LACK OF BIRTH RECORD

Ralph Freeman, Brunswick boy,
is in London, England, and being un-
able to register as citizen of the
United States with the American con.
sui there on account of having no
birth registration certificate, is now
liable to the call that is announced
in few weeks and may be drafted
into the British army as an English
subject and taken to the trenches in
France
Just few weeks ago Ralph went to
London and with the present army
conscription announced by Premier
Asquith saw himself liable to the call
unless he established himself as a
citizen of the United States. He went
to the consular office and asked to be
allowed to register.
The American consul wrote the
state department for information re-
garding this young man who gave
his birthplace as Brunswick. Ga The
state department at Washington wrote
DR.. T. F. Abercrombie of the local
health department, asking for a copy
of his birth record He could not fur
nish 1t. Why? Because the birth was
never recorded.
What are the consequences? The
young man cannot legally prove that
he is an American citizen, and may
be forced to fight in that awful war
as British subject; IL not that, GER
tainly all rights as an American citi.
zen will be denied him.
Upon inquiry yesterday, it was
found that there is very little known
of the young man here, but 1t was
found that he was born on st. Simons
island and that his mother now lives
at Pearson, Ga, having gone there
from here some time ago.

representative yesterday, DR.. Aber

with better flavor than those from
New York and Oregon. wheat as good
as Illinois, and peaches and watermel-
ons which excel those from every 9th
er state. Georgia has an average Oh
295 growing days each year, while,
for instance, Ohio has only 165. Even
in northern Georgia stock need not be
fed for more than two months each
year.

chamber of commerce is trying to
put over an advertising cmpaign for
the state of Georgia, part of which
campaign is the sending of these two
exhibit cars loaded with exhibits of

ing also museum the equal of which
cannot be found anywhere else on

five years old and weighing over ten
thousand pounds.
