ATLANTA ENGINEERS
ON The The FIRING LINE

ATLANTA, Ga, Dec. 12.-Although
the names of the American engineers
who threw down their shovels in ex-
change for rifles and fought with
the British to stem the tide of the
German counter attacks on the Cam
brai front have not yet been an
nounced in the public prints, it is be-
heved here that number of promi-
nent young Atlantians were in the
battle, as regiment of engineers
was recruited in this city last sum
MGR and Immediately went across.
Scores of the most prominent young
men Of Atlanta are serving the ma
ton in various branches of the SER
vice. The latest report Of the sink
ing OF the U. s. destroyer, Jacob
Jones, by German submarine, show
that Harry r, Hood, of this city,
gamers mate. went down with other
members of the crew who lost their
lives. Service flags are flying from
hundreds of Atlanta homes. The front
door Of William S. Slaton, formerly
superintendent OF the Atlanta public
schools, shows a flag with three stars
representing his three sons now in
the service
William F. SIaton, Jr., is a first
lieutenant and acting commander Of
a company in France. Waldo NJ Sla-
ten, q graduate of Georgia Tech, is q
second lieutenant OF engineers. John
N Slaton, Jr., nephew of the former
governor John NJ. SIaton, is also
lieutenant OF engineers.
Former Governor Slaton presented
each of the boys with complete outfits
and uniforms when they received their
commissions, and his gift was the one
above all which an officer appreciates,
sonce it takes all Of ones salary to
buy the olcthing and equipment he IS
