SITE FOR CAMP At
KENNESAW GOOD
SAY OFFICERS
Irspection Made by Three
High Army Officers
Here Tuesday.

In less than three weeks Marietta
will know whether one of the great
ormv camps will be located at Ken
,osow Mountain. This was made
Lnown Tuesday at the Marietta Golf
Climb when Col w. B. Ladou, in the
conrse of his remarks, said that the
decisions would be made by the war
denartment in couple of days after
the reports were all in on June tenth.
That the news is likely to be favora-
HE was the feeling in the hearts of
the committee that had been all day
in company with the officers on their
inspection tour. And this feeling was
greatly strengthened when at nearly
five o'clock, just before returning to
Atlanta, Major Dalton said: Crank
". it is the best site we have seem"
But there are other sites yet for the
committee to inspect.
The committee that came up to
inspect the site was expected on
Wednesday but change in their
plans caused them to come up Tues
day with only about ten minutes
warning. The committee that is
making the fight for the location of
the camp here got on the job, how
ever, and met the officers, taking
them to the handsome offices of the
Sessions Loan & Trust Company.
Here they went over the requirements
! Of the camp before making the trip
over the county.
The first stop was at the foot of
Kennesaw Mountain on the Dixie
Highway and then on over toward
Monday creek where they stopped
at the home of Mr.. Ben. Stanley. The
land at this point was particularly
interesting and seems ideally suited
to the needs of the camp. The wa
ter supply, electric light line, railroad
and highway facilities all impressed
'he officers highly. The party then
was taken around the mountain in
order to let them have a better idea
Of the country. -
After the party returned to town
II was decided to take them back to
'ne loot of the mountain and let them
get the lay of the land a little bet
'ef THIS second trip seemed to make
good impression and the officers
were then taken to the golf club
There luncheon was given in their
nOnor. The officers composing the
committee were Col W. B. Ladou,
MAJOR A. c. Dalton and Capt. ]. c..
H. Lee.
Inc plans for the camp require
i lVie IMAM one thousand acres of
.@"u On which will be placed buildings
W accommodate thirty thousand men.

LADIES' GOLF RECORD
is SET BY MRS. WYATT

Mrs. Henry Wyatt has set a new
record for ladies on the links of the
Marietta Golf Club. The score she
made under observation was AZ
strokes for the nine holes. This
is lower than the score Mrs. Will
DuPre made in the recent flag tourn-
ament and is certainly an excellent
one for lady.

for the abolition of that
cherished privilege. He ayows posi-
tive conviction that a legislature of
some not distant future date Wit

in this state.
The time IS coming Speaker
Keene said. when Kansas and other
states will bar tobacco. just the same
as liquor. II won't come this SEES
sion. nor next session. but, mark my
prediction. in five or six sessions
from now a Kansas legislature viii
pass Just as drastic laws against
Lady Nicotine as this legislature has
passed against John Barleyeorn."
Keene pointed out that not many
years ago one representative. Ed
wards, was laughed out OF counter
ance when he introduced a bill pro
hibiting the sale OF cigarettes il
Kansas. But the bill was enacted
into law. The house this session ha
passed two drastic additions to thi
law. one prohibiting cigarette ad
vertising, the other making il a mis-
demeanor to possess cigarettes 70
any purposes. The anti-cigarette ad
vertising measure has been reporte
f%avorably by the judiciary commit
tee in the senate.

RULING AWAITED
SUPREME COURT To PASS ON
QUESTION OF SUNDAY
SHOWS.

Lead, March 9.-Complaints of
Sunday picture shows, an innovation
within the past few weeks in Lead,
have received an answer through
States Attorney Francis Parker.
from the attorney general, who in
a communication finds that il is in
cumbent upon the states attorney to
await a ruling on the law by the SUI
preme court of the state, in view OF
the fact that Sunday picture shows
are operating in many places in the
state and that where complaints have
been made and trials conducted,
juries have almost universally failed
to convict"
There is quite a sentiment OF dis
favor in regard to the Sunday shows
here and the usual reformers have
made an attempt to Danish them.

PRIATED by THE STATE.

Aberdeen. March S-The South
Dakota Legislature wanted TO do the
right thing by the South Dakota
soldiers who served their time on the
border. and South Dakotans gener-
ally have approved the action Of the
legislature in appropriating S75 0oN
in order TO pay the soldiers $l5 "a
month for the nine months service
on the border. but obstacles have de
veloped which may prevent the
troops from receiving their pay, and
may even force them to give up their
khaki uniforms and overcoats.
According to a statement by Lieu
tenant Colonel William A. Halle of
the Fourth South Dakota infantry.
the adjutant general has ruled that
the boys cannot receive the money
appropriated until they turn in their
o%vercoats aud sweaters. Many OF
the soldiers. il is said. have no other

Colonel Halle. they dislike going
about in barrels until they receive
their money from the state. which
may be some time in coming.
