time of emergency. The society
women flocked eager TO become
members. These Chicago women
by their unusual activities in prepar-
alton for war. are setting an example
which other patriotic women vii,
follow.
Dozens of young women here in
the city own and operate their cars
and one Of them has the reputation
Of being the best driver in the city.
but they all say they hadn't thought
Of studying the mechanism of their
cars as a means of doing their bit for
the country. They were all sure
that if some one enthusiastic young
person would take the responsibility
Of organizing such class here the
others would gladly follow.
In the Chicago organization il is
not considered necessary for the
women TO own or be able to operate
their cars TO be eligible TO member
ship. Anyone wishing to join may
enter on payment of dues There
are two classes, one for the novices
and the other for experienced
drivers.
The dues are placed at 81 a quar-
ter, or 81 a year, which will take
care of the tuition and incidentals
providing that at least so women

be furnished with an instructor
when the so women have signified

one OF the best families that

basis Of story of inherited insan-
ity would be the family OF the late

When Helen OF Bavaria was chos-

simply: Good morning. cousin"

The Housewives Economy Calendar
BY Frances Marshall

cleaner This has the added advan-
tage Of having it cleaned and getting
it out of the way while the special
cleaning is going on.
Always begin housekeeping at the
top of the house and work down.
The time spent in the attic or store
rooms can take place before anyone
but the housewife need dream that
housekeeping is under way.
The reason that the expert house
cleaner begins at the top is because
the dust and rubbish are necessarily
tracked down toward the kitchen. If
the lower floors are cleaned first
they must really be cleaned over af-
ter the upper floors are cleaned.
The really clever house manager
makes housekeeping as little appar-
ent to the mem bers of her family as
possible. Perhaps when carpets
were tackled down at the edges of
the floor, when much upholstered
furniture was the rule. and when
every available shelf. table and
chair back was decked with a tidy,
it was impossible to take house,
cleaning calmly. But now il is sure
ly as easy to houseclean one or two
rooms at a time as it is to turn the
whole house inside out. thereby
lengthening the cleaning process for
each room for over a couple of
weeks.

To be sure there are a good many
persons who speak about house

quite out of fashion. They have a

veniences, together with the usual
custom nowadays of using rugs on
bare or polished floors instead of
carpets and the abandonment of the

take inventory before summer

away clothes for the winter and get

this also entails extra work and

The first thing to do by way of
housekeeping is to have everything

kOPLIN, JUNK DEALER, WANTS
DAMAGES FOR LOSS SUSTAINED

ATLANTA, Ga, May 10.-One of the
most unique damage suits on record
in Fulton county has been filed by h.
Koplin, a junk dealer, against the
western & Atlantic railroad for ST.
ISL SO as payment for the contents OF
two warehouses destroyed by fire, for
which the railroad is alleged to have
been responsible.
The plaintiffs warehouses frontea
the Western & Atlantic railroad tracks
In his suit. which filed by Reuben K.
Arnold. the famous Atlanta lawyer, he
alleges that an engine emitting large
sparks set fire to one of the ware
houses. and that the other was set on
fire by the negligence of a train crew
who hitched a switch engine to a
string of burning cars, pulled them
down alongside the second warehouse
and let them there because they were
too hot to carry any further. The
burning cars, it is alleged, set fire to
the second warehouse and burned it
down.
Wherefore the plaintiff prays for
damages in the aboye-stated sum to
cover the loss OF the contents of both
buildings.

RELIEVES OIL WILL BE
FOUND IN SOUTH GEORGIA

ATLANTA, Ca, May 1O.-State
Geologist S. W. McCalla, of Georgia
who believes that oil will be found in
south Georgia, has officially request
ed government experts to make an
examination at Fitzgerald, where
drilling for oil will start in the neal
future.
Geological surface indications have
pointed strongly to the existence of
oil in that section, and local capital
lists who recently launched COM
pGny at Fitzgerald, have been highly
encouraged over the prospects. 1t is
understood that other oil companies
are now in process of organization
with the same locality in view.
Rock formation of reds color have
been taken from the ground in Ben
Hill county along the anti-cline, which
biologists confirm as one OF the
strongest of all indications of oil.
