Former Dawson Pastor Is Pledged Co.
Operation of All Organizations.
The hosts of friends here of Rev.
j. M. Cutler, who was transferred
from the Dawson Methodist church
to Trinity in Savannah at the recent
session of the South Georgia Confer
ence, will read with interest the fol-
lowing from fridays issue of the
Savannah News:
The very same type of women
who assisted Moses in decorating the
temple with beautiful embroideries
and tapestries, the very same kind of
women who, when rope was needed
to raise a great stone to the pinnacle
of the temple in Jerusalem, made
the needed rope with the hairs of
their heads; the very same caliber of
women who have heard the call of
humanity in the war zone; the very
same noble-hearted women by the
score are here, Brother Cutler, to do
your bidding in the work of old Trim
ity church for the glory of God" said
Mrs. H. E. Wilson as she welcomed
the Rev. J. M. Cutler to the pastor
ate of Trinity Methodist church last
night in the name of the Women's
Missionary Society.
All of the church societies had a
part in the elaborate welcome serv-
ices and, in speaking for the Sunday
school, Supt. Roy F. White said that
it is perfectly natural that in the
city where John Wesley founded the
first regularly organized Sunday
school in the world in 1886 and that
in the church where the Sunday
school was organized in 1882 there
should now be a membership of 622
with one member present who is 10
months old and another present who
is Sc years old.
The response made by the new pas
tor, Mr.. Cutler, was very interesting.
'The church of God under the direc-
ton of the Holy Spirit is capable of
protecting every activity of the hui
man race" he said. at establishes
proper relations between man and his
Creator, changes mans attitude to-
ward man, stimulates intellectuality
inspires to lofty ideals and noble in
centives."

GEORGIA SPENDS
MONEY FOR MEATS
Thousands of Pounds Imported From
the West Every Year-Figures
Below Should Be a Lesson.

That Georgia spent more than
$2O,OOO,O0O for imported meats last
year, is shown by figures just COM
piled. That is money that Georgia
could just as well keep at home.
While the state has made great
strides during recent years in rails
ing its own supplies, there is still
room for improvement.
Some Terrell county farmers are
included in this list, but the fact
that the tendency toward diversified
ton is advancing at such rate we
should no longer be in the list. Ter
rell has received about $4,000 for
the twelve cars of hogs shipped from
its limits in the last three months.
The following figures will prove
interesting:

NEW COINS ARE BEING

ment There Is No Scarcity.
WASHINGTON. - Reports have
reached the treasury department
from numerous sources that the new
ly designed quarters and half-dollars
coined in 1916 have been sold at a
premium by persons representing
that the new coins are rare.
To correct any impression that the
coins are rare, officials today au-
thorized the statement that 100000
halves and $4,000 quarters of the
new design were struck off in 1916.

CIRCUS WILL TOUR
COUNTRY BY MOTOR
AN EASTERN AMUSEMENT COM
PANY ORDERS 100 TRUCKS.
WON'T PATRONIZE ROADS.

Acircus corporation in New York
has defied the railroads and bought
100 three and half ton motor trucks
to transport its show from town to
town next summer. It will be the
first circus to travel by motor.
The trucks, it is claimed by the
United States Circus corporation, will
do away with the immense labor, I'M
certainties, delays and inconvenience
of the railroads. The circus will pack
it's tents, animals and outfit on the
motor trucks after a night perform
ance and will be able to exhibit in a
town 100 miles away the next night,
it is claimed. The performers will
travel in trucks equipped with special
bodies containing berths similar to a
Pullman.
Opens a New Field.
This use of the motor points to a
new field for the commercial truck,
provided the road conditions are m
proved to accommodate fast inter-
city service, according to the circus
| manager.
Track dealers say that with sys-
tenn of hard-surfaced roads in this
country, the field of the motor truck
in interstate commerce is unlimited.
The scheme of sending produce from
town to town in states that have i'm
proved road systems, has worked sue
cessfully, and the expense of ship
ment is said to be less than by rail
road.
Predicted by Buffalo Bill.
Buffalo Bill" Cody, ten years be-
fore his death, predicted the modern
circus in the future would abandon
the railroad and travel by motor
truck.
The United States Circus corpora
ton is composed of several big cir
cuses and outdoor amusement com
) panies. Its order for 100 motor
] trucks is said to be the largest single
order received by truck manufac-
turer aside from war orders.

how each dollar of their money was

possible that Judge Arnold had some
motive which he thought to his private
advantage in his race in this matter,
by his suppression Of these facts and
by his failure to comply with the law
on this subject? We think these
facts that We have given should be
considered by all the voters Of this

my record and Judge Arnold's record,
they can then make up their minds as

the program to be pursued at the ex-
traordinary session of the Twenty
first General Assembly took on tan
gible form.
Revenue raising measures, to in
clude 100000 bond issue. a mill
levy for the maintenance of mount
ed police guard, and a corporation
license tax to increase the present re-
turns; legislation authorizing the
nearly 800 state banks to become

more stringent antitrust laws to curb
the speculator and the hoarder OF
foods; defraying of the expenses OF
the mobilization of the national
guardsmen until they are called into
the federal service-these are few
u
among the senators and representa-
tives.
Whether politics will be injected
into the proceedings is problematical.
Deadlocks in the Senate are not an
ticipated, although the absence of Sen
ator Charles B. Hamilton of Denver,
now resident of Cedar Rapids, Iowa,
leaves an equal number from either
party in the upper branch.
Senator E. V. Dunklee of Denver

military committee of the upper
branch, in the absence of Senator
Hamilton.
Much of the burden of the special
session will rest with the military, ju-

Just what will happen to the pongee
street suit this year is a question that
receives a very satisfactory answer
In the latest arrival in that line. 1t
Is street suit in which pongee in the
natural color is bordered with the
same silk in black. Those who aspire
to smart styles for midsummer will
recognize an excellent achievement in
this combination. Black used in just
the right proportion with sedate colors
gives them a distinction that nothing
can excel.
In this suit the skirt is a forerunner
of promised styles for autumn. 1t is
a little shorter than spring models. 1t
hangs in the most uncompromising of
straight lines, emphasized by box
plaits, very thoroughly pressed into
place. The black pongee is set against
the natural light ecru color in border
about eight inches wide.
The coat is plain as to its body, with
a panel effect at the front, below the
belt, which is of pongee. There are
flat pockets at each side, faced with
black at the top and cut in a diagonal
across the bottom. Straight cuffs,

much roquefort cheese as is liked and
add to the vegetables just as they are
ready to serve. For those who do not
enjoy the delicious cheese, the dress
ing may be served without 1t.

currant JelIy.-Currants for jelly
should not be overripe or picked i'm
mediately after rain. Look the cur
rants over carefully, wash but do not
remove the stems. Mash few in the
bottom of the preserving kettle with a
wooden potato masher and continue
to add the fruit until they are all
used. Bring slowly to the boiling point
and let simmer until the currants look
white. Strain through several thick
nesses of cheesecloth or drain through
jelly bag. Measure the juice and
boil 1t five minutes add an equal meas
ure of heated sugar, bring to the boil
ing point and boil three minutes, skim
and pour into glasses. Let stand in
sunny window for day, cover with
paraffin and keep in cool, dry place.
In many places all over the country
wild raspberries abound. These berries
have a most delicious flavor, but being
smaller than the cultivated kind are
better used for jelly, shrub and sirups,
or the juice combined to give flavor to
other fruits in canning.
Strawberries are not sufficiently
rich in pectin to make good jelly but
the favor is so delicious that expert
ments have been made with these
fruits lacking pectin, saving them. to
us in the form of jelly. Take the white
pith of half an orange, boil 1t for an
hour or two to remove all its pectin
and add 1t to strawberry juice and
see what fine jelly can be made. The
yellow rind should all be removed be-
fore using the orange peel unless you
want the combination of flavor. There
will be sufficient pectin in half an
orange rind for several glasses of
jelly.
Strawberry cup.-Prepare freezer
of vanilla ice cream. Add three table
spoonfuls of orange extract to cup
full of heavy cream, whipped. Halve
few choice berries lengthwise and
press the smaller ones through u sieve
and mix the pulp and juice with cup
full and a half of sugar; chill. To serve,
