CONGESTION IN
NEW NEW YORK HARBOOR
MEANS SPLENDID CONDITION OF
COMMERCIAL PROSPERITY
IN AMERICA.

Business in America is on probably
continent" says Thomas Fuller, NAL
lory line agent at this place, "as shown
by the present congestion in New
York"
For the past several days it has
been absolutely impossible to get
steamers to carry the freight that has
gathered in the various p> IT'S of this
country. The law Of supply and de-
mand has made it hard to get cheap
rates for hauling lumber A few
months ago schooners, unable to find
good paying cargoes in the northern
ports came here to carry lumber al a
lower rate. The high prices now paid
in north to relieve congestion has
taken them all from the lumber sec
tons. and the regular steamers are not
adequate to carry on the traffic, as
consequence, congestion Is found in all
ports of the country.
The sinking Of steamers in the Eu-
ropean waters by submarines has
proven terrible drawback to the
handling of commerce but the vast
amount OF shipbuildng that il going
on has offered work to all laboring
people
While port congestion and lack Of
transportation facilities has caused
much delay and embarrassment, il is
nevertheless an indication that bust
ness is on a boom. IT means boom
for the trading people, or they would
not have made so many orders that
cannot be filled The manufacture.
trade and hauling has offered work to
all classes Of working people, and al
together America is in probably the
best condition she has seen for years.

BOTH ROUTES WIN OUT
ON LOCAL
SANITARY CONVENTION

Yesterday being Baby Registration
Day" in Baby Week." the principal
feature of which was the fourth an
nual convention of the Southeastern
Sanitary Association, the Congress OF
Mothers and Parent-TeacherS Associa-
tion sent a letter to all the doctors in
the city, urging their cooperation in
securing this important matter to the
people of the city of Brunswick and
Glynn county. The letter showed that
it is not only mark of the higher
enlightenment and has long been in
practice in the thickly inhabited and
highly civilized European countries,
but is decided eXpedient in the great
work of public health, preventing in
fant mortality, in bettering compulsory
educational conditions and checking
up against illegal child labor.
There was a good number of physici-
ans and health officers left the city
yesterday after attending the conven-
ton, feeling that they had acquainted
themselves with one of the most wide
awake little cities in the country
Many Of them were loud in their
praise of the sems-tropical climate
and beautiful shady streets, made pic
turesque by long rows of palms and
the splendi dcivic pride of the people
here in keeping their homes, business
houses, public schools and other pub
lie plces so well cleaned up. Several
of the physicians spoke of their ap-
probation of the warm wecome they
received and the splendid entertain
ment, both at the private homes in
which many of them stayed and the
Oglethorpe Hotel.
One of the splendid papers that had
been prepared for the occasion, that
was not delivered was that Of Mr.. M L..
Mccormick, city chemist and bacter-
iologist, of the city Of Asheville, NC,
The Brunswick news. [volume] (Brunswick, Ga.) 1906-2016, 1916-03-26

who had come all the way from that
city to see Brunswick, attend the con-
vention and read his paper on house
fly eradication. Mr.. McCromicks paper
delt principally with the monetary
saving it means to poison fly breeding
places. The following clipping from
his paper is of special interest:
1T has been accepted already that
he principal breeding places of the fly
is in manure that con be used to ferti-
lize farm land to an advantage The
presence of breeding flies destroys the
nitrogen in the manure and renders it
from Is to 80 per cent less valuable
than it would be if preserved by pre-
venting it being used as a breeding
place for flies
Mr.. Mccormick takes it for granted
that people everywhere now realize
the danger flies are to the health of a
community and that those who have
experienced it know of the unpleasant
ness. He says people have become
used to putting the fly out of existence.
Mr.. Mccormick is principally response
BILE for the fact that Asheville, N c.,
is practically a flyless town, and he
has succeeded in the work, not with
swatting campaigns-wh which he says
are fine-not by municipal expense of
poisoning stables, but by meeting and
convincing those who own and keep
these breeding places that it means
money in their pockets to save their
manure and rid the city of flies
Mr.. McCromick is man of pleasing
personality, a convincing talker and
altogether valuable man to the
health workers, of the community, who
want to see the people aroused to the
work of improving sanitary conditions.
and the convention missed a treat
when the time became too short for
him to read his paper

Dixie HIGHWAY
COMMISSIONERS
REACH DECISION
AFTER SAvANNAH-BRUNs.
WICK ROUTE HAD BEEN
SELECTED SHORT ROUTE
WAS ALSO RECOGNIZED.
STATE GETS THREE
ROUTES TO FLORIDA
Vote on Eastern Leg Stood 9 to
q in Favor of the Savannah
Brunswick Route-Many Ad-
dresses Made.

MACON, March 25.-Although the
Savannah Brunswick, or the all-coast
route won out before the Dixie high
way commissioners this afternoon in
the selection of an official eastern
route from Macon to Jacksonville, the
Waycross-F s-FitZgerald or so-called short
route, succeeded in having its route
included also as an official route, thus
making three routes of the great high
way from Macon to Jacksonville, one,
to be known as the western route,
being via Albany, Thomasville, Talla-
hassee, another. known as the central
route, being via Waycross and FitZ-
gerald, and the other. to be known as
lie eastern route, being via Savannah
and Brunswick. All of the routes will
be given official recognition by the
great highway association and, as to
the route to be tralevled, it will be op-
tional with the tourists.
The commissioners met at 10 O'Clock
this morning to decide upon which of
the two routes was to be selected, and
the session lasted until o'clock this
afternoon Many addresses were made
by advocates Of both routes, and a
strong appeal was made by the many
delegations present. The advantages,
the scenery, the roads, etc, of both
routes were presented in strong Ian
guage and forcful talks, and great en-
thusiasm was displayed by advocates
of both routes.
Local Route Wins.
Although it was announced after the
meeting that the decision of the COM
missioners in recognizing both routes
was unanimous, vote was first taken
as between the two routes, and the
Savannah Brunswick leg was visto-
riouS by vote of 8 to 4.
The adherents of the short route
were greatly disappointed by the ac-
ton of the commissioners, and after
the Savannah Brunswick route had
been selected, representatives from
Fitzgerald, Waycross and Douglas ap-
pealed to the commissioners to rec
ognize the short route; they argued
that some recognition should be given
for their work in improving the roads
roue was also included as an official
route, thus creating separate routes OF
the great highway between Macon
and Jacksonville.

Virtue may be its own reward in the

ask him.
Mr.. Holmes has been a good villain.
He has been so perfectly despicable,
so triumphant in his social wrong
doings that William Fox is now ready
to star him because of his popular
unpopularity.
None of the foregoing has been
written with the idea of making the
story complex or intricate. Stuart
Holmes has made good" in the NOV

PimpIes and Eruptions
Mean Bad Blood

People who have impure or impover.
| ished blood should be careful to take
only a vegetable remedy such as DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is
and has been for over 40 years.
The first day you start to take this
reliable medicine, impure germs and
accumulations begin to separate in the
blood and are then expelled through
the Liver, Bowels and Kidneys.
In place of the impurities, the ar
teries and Veins gradually get fresh
vitalized blood and the action of this
good blood on the skin means that
pimples, boils, carbuncles, eczema, rash,
acne and all skin blemishes will dis
appear. Then you must remember that
when the blood is right, the liver, stom-
ach, bowels and kidneys become
healthy. active and vigorous and you
will have no more trouble with indi-
gestion, backache, hes. lche and con-
stipation.
Get DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery to-day at any medicine dealers;
1t is a powerful blood purifier, so PEN
etrating that it even gets at tho i'm
pure deposits in the joints and carries
them out of the system.
Depend upon this grand remedy to
give you the kind of blood that makes
the skin clear, the mind alert. the
vision keener and puts ambition and
energy into the entire body. You won't
be disappointed. For free advice or
free booklet on blood. write DR.. V. NJ.

Theatorium.

Tyrone Power and Lois Weber vii
be co-stars in the Bluebird presenta
ton of a five-act photoplay at the
| Theatorium today with Ethel Weber
and Charles Gum appearing with
them in an all-star portrayal of Lois
Weber's play, THE Eye of God" In
! this production Mr. Power will again
play the role of a master criminal
as cunning and resourceful as the part
of John Needham which he enacted in
a previous Bluebird, John Needham's S
Double"
Murder committed for no other pur-
pose than sordid gain is the basis of
the story and the title indicates the
great moral the photoplay propounds
in the theory that no matter where we
are or what we do, the eye of God is
upon us to seek out our sins and i'm
pei the criminal to confess and ease
his troubled conscience.
There is intense fascination in the
unfolding OF the narrative, from the
time the master criminal begins to
write his confession until his story has
been pictured, together with his dem
onstration of his method of murder
Gus procedure. And then come the
eXecutioners to lead him to the chair.
But there is nothing repellant or
gruesome in a single foot of the cellu-
loid melodrama; rather is the interest
fixed by the mystery part of the story,
and as "the eye" frequently sheds it's
brilliantly searching beams upon the
murderer, the story grips the interest
and holds attention with fixed and
eager consistency, to the very end.
