CoBB'S FIGHTING MEN.

Next Wednesday the first of Cobb
County's men go into the great Amer
lean army that will bring about the
defeat of Germany, will begin to
leave for their training camp. These
noble boys will be remembered in
history among those who saved the
world from the iron rule of the Kali
ser and broke the bonds of many
other nations. They are just plain
every day Americans that always
have and always will face any situa-
ton that comes up with that calm
determination that keeps the United
States at the forefront of all the
nations Of the earth.
In 1776 when their forefathers de-
cided that they had stood more than
they cared to endure, they fought,
and now it is just the same. After
hesitating for nearly three years and
bearing more, than we could endure,
we find this great country sending
forth its army and navy for the same
purpose-to crush the tyrant.
These young men have answered
their country's call just as surely as
those who have volunteered" in the
service. They came up and. register
ed, stood their physical examina-
tions, and most of them did not of
fer any claim for exemption from
service. They are just the advance
guard of thousands of others who will
follow in their steps when the call
comes.
Let's all go out and see them Sat
urday afternoon at the golf club and
make it a point to give them a hand
shake and tell them we are proud
of them.

AN INTERESTING GARDEN.
G.. v. HEIDI
Capt. Inf. R. o.

Mr.. and Mrs. Will Hames have
nice house on Waterman street and
their garden is very interesting and
original in the way it is planted
Mr.. Hames first removed quanti-
ties of small stones from the earth
and is saving them to make a retain
| ing wall between the garden and the
house. At one side of the back yard
is a chicken house almost covered
with a guord vine bearing long han
died gourds. Near this is luxuriant
vine, volunteer, on which small
melon is growing. The garden is not
laid out in beds but has a path be-
side a fence and is planted in diago-
nal rows of corn with various small
vegetables between and not weed
to be seen anywhere. There are cab
bages, beans and peas and many
other kinds of garden truck. Beds
of sage and mint are growing and
sun-flowers and zinnias brighten the
garden along the sides. The toma-
toes are more shrubs than vines and
the delicious vegetables on them are
all round and smooth. Mrs. Hames
has gathered great many butter
beans of the daintiest varieties and
is drying them for winter. Mr.. Hames
has already begun cutting his corn
and drying it for fodder
They also raise chickens and have
a devoted fox terrier to assist them.
They intend to make. improv-
ments in their yard and garden but
will finally build nice home out be-
side Kennesaw Mountain.
Mrs. Hames had been a telegraph
operator for many years when she
married not three years ago and had
never known the joy of real house
Keeping. She is a very attractive lit
tie lady with brown hair and the
clear brown eyes the poet says have
looks like birds flying straightway to
the light and she was born with a
happy disposition. Now she has a
sewing machine instead of tele-
graph key to keep time with her
thoughts and devoted little dog for
company while her husband is away.
He comes home early, however, and
takes the interest in domestic affairs
all good men do and works in that
garden religiously. They are a hap
Ply couple because they are congenial
In tastes and devoted to their home.
Mrs. Hames is quite pleasing writer
both of prose and verse, and has con-
tributed to some of the best maya
zines in the United States. She has
relatives in Atlanta and Augusta and
friends wherever she is known. Nat
urally all poets take to gardens as
ducks do to water and because of
that affinity are successful in cul-
tivating them.
A feature of this garden is a big
clump of clover with four leaves on
| luaily OF the stems. 1t is not the
plain old timey meadow kind that
had so few with four leaves, but its
owner is very sentimental in a bene-
VIOLENT way and so cherishes the
plant which is a giant edition, so to
speak, of the dear little Irish sham
rock. You remember the song about
those clover leaves?
"One leaf is for faith and one is for
1 hope,
| And one is for love, you know,
And God put another one in for luck
If you search you will find where
they grow"

on the action OF yesterdays caucuses
of Democratic and Republican SEN
ators in approving a rule under which
debate may be limited by a thwo- thirds
vote of the senate. A resolution en-
bodying the proposed rule was ready
to be laid before the senate today and
will be pressed for prompt adoption.

not attend the Republican caucus and

presented they will seize the oppor-

OF U. 5. s.
NOT HELD
(By Associated Press.)

| Washington, March 8.-Americans
In Belgium are no longer detained in
any sense by the German military
authorities. according to a final re-
port received at the state department
today from Minister Brand Whitlock
at Brussels.
The dispatch stated that subordin-
ate officials in Belgium had prevented
Americans from leaving Immediately
after the severance in relations for
Lack Of orders whether to hold them
or not. The difficulty has all been
Strengthened out, Mr.. Whitlock re-
ported, and Americans are free to
come and so as before the severance
in relations.
Apart from the 40 Belgian relief
workers very few Americans are in
Belgium. =
Mr.. Whitlock's diplomatic status
still remains indefinite.
Germany after the break refused to
recognize Mr.. Whitlock's diplomatic
position as minister. but authorized
him with other Americans to remain
in charge of the Belgian relief work.
As practically all of Belgium is in
the military possession of Germany
and her capital has been moved to
Havre. France, officials here see only
two alternatives, to admit he is no
longer clothed with diplomatic author
ity or to send him to Havre as the
fully accredited minister to Belgium.
Word is anxiously awaited here as
to the release. of the 20 American
sailors taken into Germany over three
months ago as prisoners OF war on
the prize Yarrowdale. Their release
was promised by Germany for today
when an alleged quarantine against
an illness contracted by a British sea-
man confined with them was to have
expired.
No information has come to the de-
partment as TO the manner or route
OF release. Arrangements will be made
at once for every attention that can
be given the men when their location
becomes known.
Nothing has been received at the
department as to the four American
consuls ordered from Germany to
Turkey and held in Munich until
Turkey has assured Germany Of her
willingness to receive them.

Lord Kitchener Was
Responsible For the
Dardanelles' Campaign
tBy Associated Press.)

London, March 8.-The majority re-
port OF the commission appointed last
July to investigate the Dardanelles
campaign, which was held up for a
fortnight by the decision to expurgate
certain sections referring to allied
countries, was made public today in
its revised form. The committee re-
ports that the late Lord Kitchener
then war secretary, favored the prof.
ect and that when he gave a decision
in the war council 10 was invariably
accepted as final. The dispatch OF
troops to the east was delayed three
weeks, the report says, as the result OF
the decision Of Lord Kitchener, which
was not communicated to Winston
Spencer Churchill, then first lord Of
the admiralty.
The project was undertaken on the
Initiative of Colonel Churchill. The
commission reports thai naval adj
visers would have preferred a joint
military and naval attack, instead OF
the attack by the feet alone and de-
clared that these views should have
been heard. by the war council, which
was not justified in coming to the de-
cision without a much fuller investi-
cation.
The possibility of making a surprise
attack by land and water offered such
great military and political advan-
tages, the commission finds, that 1t
was ill-advised to sacrifice this posi-
tion by deciding hastily to undertake
a purely naval attack which, from its
nature, could not attain completely the
objects desired
The subject has been a difficult one,
the commission reports. on which to
reach definite conclusion regarding the
relative degree of responsibility and
the amount of praise and blame which
may be reasonably assigned to the
principal authorities concerned.
The report is an interim one, deal
ing solely with the origin and incep-
tion of the attack on the Dardanelles.
