MORE THAN 100 RUSH TO
.ENL|ST IN FIFTH REGIMENT

Stirred by President Wilson's call TO
the colors, more than 100 men enlisted
Monday morning in the various compa-
MES of the Fifth gegiment, national
guard of Georgia.
Of that number twenty-seven had
been given the medical examination UP
to o'clock, and all but four of these
were accepted.
As the Fifth regiment needs only
800 men to bring its companies up to
the minimum peace strength enlist
ment, which the war department re-
quires before sending national guard
units to the Mexican border and as re-
cruiting has gone forward at a brisk
clip every hour since the enlistmen.
rolls were opened Monday morning, il
is believed the regiment will have Sc
cured al 1.-The needed recruits within
two or three days.
However, the regiment will enlist
more than enough to make the minimum
peace strength, if the men present them
selves. To make full war strength of
90 men to each company, the regiment
needs 900 additional men.
The men recruited Monday are mostly
in the neighborhood Of 81 years of age
and are unmarried men, in the main.
They are clean-cut young felliws and
show themselves to be in earnest.

some guns in the hands of the Russians.
To the north, in Galicia and Volhynia,
the Russians are meeting with desper-
ate resistance on the part of Austro-
Hungarians and Germans, some of the
latter of whom are declared by Petro-
grad to have been brought from the
French front in an endeavor to aid in
stemming the Russian advance.
CLAIMS CONFLICT
While Petrograd asserts that the Rus
SLAMS are repulsing the counter attacks,
pressing the Teutonic allies farther back
and taking from them large numbers
of prisoners and quantities of war ma
terials, both Vienna and Berlin report
victories for their arms in Galicia and
Volhynia- Vienna says that north of the
Lipa river, in Galicia, the Austrians
put down a Russian attack, gaining
ground and took 800 men prisoner, while
Berlin asserts that along the Styr on
both sides of Kolki and between the
Lutsk road and the Turya sector the

3,446 Russians and some guns
Fresh attempts by the Germans
against the French positions northeast

Again there has been considerable &C

Vosges mountains, where the French in
the former sector used their long range
artillery effectively against German po-
sitions and in the latter sector put down
a surprise infantry attack southwest of
Carspach.
MUCH FIGHTING IN AIR.
On the French front much fighting In
the air has taken place. A British fiier
drove down a German machine, and
French aviators accounted for seven
others. The French lost one machine.
AS yet the Austrians have not with
drawn troops from the Italian front, be-
cause of the Russian offensive in the
east, says the Rome communication,
and they are continuing their violent
efforts to break through the italian
line. Their efforts, however, are meeting
with no success. the attacks being put
down with heavy casualties.
Austrian air squadrons have bonn

FURTHER PLANS LAID
FOR THE BIG PARADE
ON FOURTH OF JULY
Largely Attended and Enthl-
siastic Meeting of Chairmen
and Members of Committees
Is Held Monday Morning

Further plans for the great Prepared
ness parade to be held In Atlanta on
the 4th of July were perfected Mon
day morning at a largely attended and
enthusiastic meeting in the chamber of
commerce of the chairmen and members
of the several committees announced in
The Journal Sunday morning.
For two hours in the busiest part of
the day these Atlanta business men
laid aside their private affairs and sat
around a table discussing and determin-
ing plans for making the parade the
greatest of all the preparedness demon
stations i'm the south and the most
memorable celebration of the birth of
American independence in Georgia's his
tory.
1t was decided that the parade shall
start at o'clock on the morning of
July T. which will be Tuesday.
1t was decided that the parade con-
sist of men and boys of fourteen years
of age and over, and that the women
and the children of Atlanta will be in
vited to participate in the parade and
inspire the men and youths by lining
up along the curbstones and singing pa
triotic songs. 1t was further decided
that the women and children be re-
quested to wear white and to carry
American flags.
1t was decided that $4,000 American
flags shall be ordered at once. anc
committee was appointed to take charge
Of this matter. AS soon as the flags
arrive, arrangements will be made for
distributing the INTO the men and youths
who will march in the parade, and the
details of these arrangements will be
announced later.
BANDS ARE INVITED.
1t was further decided to invite the
Musicians union of Atlanta to authorize
it's members to play in their respective
bands in the parade free of charge, as
their special and distinctive contribu-
ton 10 the success of the occasion. Ev-
eryone agreed that a parade without
bands would be lacking in one of the
great essentials of a popular success,
and it was the expressed belief and
hope of the committee that the Must
clans union will readily and gladly
make this contribution.
1t was further decided that every town
and city in the state of Georgia shall
be invited to send a brass band and a
big division to take part in the parade,
which is to be a demonstration not
only for Atlantians but for Georgians as
we'll.
D.. y. Baldwin, a veteran band organ
izer and instructor. was present at the
meeting for the purpose of proffering
the services of a band of sixty pieces
which is now on tour in Alabama under
his direction. He said the members of
the band were anxious to come to At
lanta and play in the parade to show
their patriotic American feelings, and
his prefer was accepted with applause.
