CORDELE YOUNG MEN PLAN
FOR MILITARY SERVICE

Naturally the chief topic of CONVEX
sation at this time among young men
eligible for the army or navy under
President Wilson's plan Of universal
militarf service is about the army or
navy. Some young men are thinking
it, dreaming it, and in their magma
ton living the military life of their
choice, while others of Cordele and
Crisp county have not trusted to their
imagination, but have enlisted undei
the colors and are now actually living
the military life OF their choice, Every
young man who is eligible for service
is awaiting with keen interest the out
come of the deliberations OF congress
upon the question Of universal service.

NESBIT'S HORSES
killed BY Train
ERNEST YOUNGBLOoD AND j. w.
RELKs OCCUPANTS OF WAGON
WHEN ACCIDENT OCCURS.

Two horses belonging 10 Thos. Mes
bit were run down and killed Monday
afternoon by freight train on the
Seaboard railway, and Ernest Young
blood, J. w. Belk and negro boy, all
employed on Mr.. Nesbit's farm, had
a marrow escape with their lives.
The horses were attached to dal-
~ wagon and the young men ana ne
gro boy were all occupants Of the
wagon. They had started to Cordele
with q supply of milk from Nesbits
dairy According to the young men,
one freight train was closely follow
ing another, both coming in the direc-
ton of Cordelo.
Youngblood, who was driving the
team. stopped until the first train pass
ed. and after il cleared the crossing,
they were driving across the tracks
when they were run down by the en-
zine Of the second train, and barely
missed hitting the wagon. None OF
the occupants of the wagon sustained
injuries.
They were looking at the first train
as it passed and did not notice that
another train was following within
short distance of it.

Hundreds OF them in COrdele and vicin-
ity are making preliminary arrange
ments, deciding, or trying to decide
upon the branch of the service in
which they will enlist
one of the young men who is trying
TO decide has reached the conclusion
that in his case it is not advisable to
join the navy. He says that the ocean
affords too soft a foothold for rapid
advancement backward, and another
is giving diligent consideration to the
question OF whether he would prefer
TO smell face powder or gun powder.
But, of course, all such expressions
are merely a form Of joking. Every
young man is ready TO fill his place il

MAKE ADDITION TO
LOCAL Library
CARNEGIE CORPORATION WILL
FURNISH $3.50 AND CITY OF
CORDELE $3,943--ADDiTION WILL
GIVE coRDELE $4,000 LIBRARY
BUILDING.

The Carnegie Corporation has ac-
copied Cordele's proposition to i'm
prove and enlarge the local Carnegie
library. The corporation will appro-
pirate $7,556 for the improvements,
The city having agreed upon and al
ready appropriated $3,943 for the
work. 4 letter confirming the accep-
lance of the proposition was received
by the library trustees Monday from
James Bertram, OF New York, secre-
tary of the Carnegie Corporation. The
total to be expended in the improve
ments is practically $4,000 and the ad
ditions to be made will give Cordele
500 geo library building. This does
not include the site.
The additions to the building, as pre-
yiousiy stated, will be on the rear end
Of the present structure, the floor
space being more than doubled, diss
library having capaeity aQ 900
volumes, and meeting rooail
constructed in the basement ofFf the
building.
The funds appropriated by the Car
ncgia Corporation are available i'm
mediately, though the corporation lin
its the expenditure OF the appropria-
ton to the following two years. In
any event that the work was not be-
gun within two years, however, the
appropriation couldTprobably be re-
ncweu.
Plans have not been made by the
library trustees, r. L. Huffman, j. j.
Williams and w. II. Doris, for the
beginning OF the work. 1t is possible
that the fluXuating prices for mate
rails at this time because of the war
will have something to do with deter
mining when the work will begin,
though no length delay is expected
on this account.

WILL SERVE FOR THIRD DIS
TRlcT IN ORGANIZING RESERVE
MEDICAL CORPS TO ENLIST IN
ARMY SERVICE IN CASE OF
WARFARE.

DR.. T. j. Macarthur has been noti-
fed by the State Committee of Medi-
cal Preparedness, with headquarters
in Atlanta, that he has been chosen
chairman OF the Third district COM
mittec on medical preparedness. The
duties of the office are to assist in the
efforts to secure physicians for the
army medical reserve corps in the
fifteen counties composing the Third
congressional district. 1t is pre-
parednasS move to nave in readiness
all needed medical service in case OF
war The physicians who belong to
this reserve corps, can enlist in Red
Cross work or enter the regular army
medical corps. Under present condi-
lions about seven physicians are re-
uuird for every one thousand sol
diers, though in case of warfare as it
now exists in Europe the number Of
physicians in the medical corps is
increased to twenty to each thousand
men.
In the event an army Of 100000
men is raised in the United States,
Georgia would be required to furnish
approximately 10000 soldiers. AT the
rate of seven to one thousand, one
hundred and forty physicians would
be required from Georgia.
Literature will be furnished all ply
aicians who belong to the reserve med
zeal corps for study~to prepare them
for service in the army medical corps.

According to the testimony of the
