Ruined by Jestinu.

The AntiochcneS themselves brought
about The ruin of the beautiful city OF
Antioch the ancient capital OF the
Greek kings OF Syria. These people
were famous for their biting and sour
rilous wit as well as their ingenuity in
devising nicknames. When the Per
slaps under Chosroes invaded Syria in
53S the Antiochenes could not refrain
from testing at them. Ample revenge
for this was taken by the Persians,
who totally destroyed the city.

Fashions Changes.

One can say as IA certainty that in
the twentieth century no one will be
able TO boast that he has created any
thing absolutely new in fashions. The
crinolines Of the Empress Eugene
were reminiscence of the pannierS Of
Marie Antoinette. and long before her
time, in the orient, women had con-
ceivcd the idea of charging their
skirts by means of hoops. \ few years
ago women of fashion affected high
waists and sheath dresses. but before

WORK OF THE PRESIDENT.
APut II In Writing Is the Rule OF
Our Chief Executive.


Our Chief Executive.
Mr. Wilson likes to have things in
writing, and almost all Of the business
of the Wilson administration is con
Quoted in that way. The cabinet has
learned to submit virtually everything
in writing. Mr.. Wilson has no stenog-
rapher with him at night. He keeps .
little typewriter beside him and types
brief comment or reply TO each OF
these long communications.
Even the presidents private secre-
tary, when anxious to lay before him n
matter of Importance, draws up a
memorandum or brief giving the pros
and cons of the subject. He could just
as well walk few steps TO the White
House from the executive offices or
even consult the president when he is
in his office, but ever since he was gov
ernor of New Jersey Mr.. Wilson has
indicated that he prefers to have inn
portant questions placed before him on
paper so that they may be examined al
his leisure, though the very word is a
missioner
No mind could retain all that is said
to the president in n single day, so 1t
happens that Mr.. Wilson's desk is al
ways piled high with papers. II is
constant battle against Il constantly
ascending pile Part OF the mountain
is made zip of official papers and com

lie the boys go in body in one OF
the stores and demand the same
rights as an American civilian, they
are reported and the next day they
go into the guard house. 1t is nc
wonder the American soldier has such
a disgusting, hard-hearted opinion OF
his fellow being when he is treated in
that manner. Every paper in the
land should go after these camp site
cities that take such an advantage
of the soldier boys of today and shame
them to death. The papers located in
the towns with camps don't dare say
word about it because they are a

SOAKING IT TO THE SOLDIERS
Lakeland Starr


1t is peculiar how cities will fight,
fume and do all in their power to Sc
cure a government cantonment or
some big proposition and then when
the soldier boys or proposition gets
there, they are made to pay the price
of securing the coveted prize. In
other words, the boys report that IN
Macon stores there is one price to
the civilians and one to the soldiers.
For instance, if a civilian goes into a
store to buy 50-cent necktie he pays
that price and on the other side is the
soldier price of SO cents or a dollar.
The same thing covers restaurants
and every line of business.
Just why the soldier must be called
upon to pay the price of securing the
camp is beyond us and we don't call
man a very patriotic citizen who
will take such advantage of the boys
Men who have been in Macon and at
the camps confirm these statements
and we hope that Uncle Sam will dc
something to stop such ugly prac'
tees. They must figure that the

What our people can't understand
is why scores or hundreds of sick
soldiers had to SILVER on insufficient
bedding at Camp Wheeler hospital
when in few miles was the big town
of Macon, getting rich off the camp.
Were the people of Macon too selfish
to send bedding to the sick soldiers,
or were they kept in ignorance it was
needed? We prefer to believe the lat
ter. Certain it is that If there is
ever an army camp near Ocala, and
bunch of Uncle Sans boys are sick
in it's hospital, they will not suffer
for mattresses and blankets-.not if
our people have to strip their own
beds to supply them.
