CAR SHORTAGE
IS FELT HERE
LOCAL MANUFACTURERS FEEL
NECESSITY OF RAIL FACILI-
TIES IN BRUNSWICK.

Local manufacturers are cOmmenc
ing to feel the car shortage which ex
lists throughout the country. Railway
facilities are becoming more hamper
ed each day, due to the government s
demand, rather than any lack of ef
fort on the part of the railroads.
The supply of fuel. used in large
quantities by manufacturers here
seems to be the greatest necessity at
present and two plants at least arc
already badly crippled.
The Brunswick Canning Compan!
was obliged to practically suspend al
business since last Friday, except ir
trying to locate cars and no shipping
in or out could be obtained. A local
woOdenware company has offered
their assistance, however. in the sup
ply of wood to be used instead of coal
for the present.
Mr. r. B. Mccullough, president of
the Glynn Ice Company, has also
found great difficulty to obtain neces-
sary railroad service and will be OBJ
liged to operate with the use of wood
for fuel
Every effort is being made by the
local Board of Trade to relieve the
situation here. but it is impossible for
the railroads to comply with every de
mand.
The Railroad War Board has as
sured all the manufacturers in Geor-
gia that it is doing all within it's
power to supply cars and the chief
as recently expressed, is to
keep the cars moving.

BRUNSWICK, GETS IN THE
ROYAL AVIATION CORPS.

The following from the Tampa
Times will he c. interest in Bruins
wick. Mr. Borchardt is an old Bruins
wickan, having been born in this city
and has 4 large number OF relatives
and friends, who will be pleased at
the distinction he has won:
Norman Borchardt, son of Mr.. and
Mrs Samuel Borclardt, Of this city,
is now 2 cadet in the Royal aviation
orps of Canada and has begun his
training al the aviation camp, owned
by the Canadaian government on the
shores of Lake Ontario, near Toronto.
1t is possible that Mr. Borchardt will
later be sent TO the Canadian train
ing camp in Teas, near Waco, when
cold weather l.@kos it impossible 10

Mr. Borcbard;, who is well known
m this city, where he spent most Of
his life entered the Canadian service
Jnly after being tlrned down by the
American service and secured an eX-
emption from his draft service from
the New York board, where he was
registered in order to go into the air
service.
Some time ago ho made up his mind
hat he would like to enter the avia-
ton service and made application to
tIo ,diu+oot ,o,, orol at NVo cIn ninptop
He pointed out tnat mis- training as an
artist had developed his powers of
observation and draughtmanship to
such an extent that he would make a
good military observer, being able to
produce DettCI maps than the ordi-

in other nations and is good one.
However. h,3 physical condition was

use of tobacco he was able to meet
the requirements and passed the ply
sical tests However, it developed
that he was subject to draft in this
country and the Canadian authorities
would not take him, having had many
| complaints that men subject to draft
here were seeking service in Canada
Going back 10 New York, he was
able to convince his exemption boar(
there that he would be able to serve
to better advantage with the Cana
dian flying corps than in the draft
| army in this country, and secured ar
exemption. His number was in the
5000 list and lie would not have beer

BUILDING CIRCUS
PARADE SOME JOB
SOME STATEMENTS CONCERNING
SELLS-FLOTO CIRCUS PARADE
THAT WILL INTEREST YOU.

AS carefully as an architect draws
the builders CT circus parades 80
about their work of building pageants
for street PROFESSIONS All winter
4 staff of artists and artisans were
busy making the new street parade
of the Sells-FIOtO circus. which will
be in Brunswick Saturday, October 6.
Like all circus parades. this pro-
cession reflects greater things to be
seen in the performance. and conse-
Iuently expense was not sarped in
making the parade the finest ever
offered in this country 1t is more
nan two miles long. and in it are
wagons made OF special woods inn
ported from India-China because Of
their durability and qualifications to
take on and retain the highest posi-
BILE finish.
There are score of chariois. the
gold leaf on which represents small
fortune, and these are emblematic OF
the different sections of the civilized
world. Their grandeur was not sur
passed by anything seen at Durbar. or
inauguration of the viceroy of India.
That was said to be the most gorge
Gus display of color and richness in
the world
Interspersed among the chariots are
huge dens of animals gathered from
all over the earth, all wonderful spe.
cimens of their kind There are four
bands, three calliOpcs and an organ
with tones as mellow as those o.
many church organs Horses Of the
finest kind haul these chariots, wag-
ons and calliopes, and really consti-
tute a horse show. Four bands dis
pense real circus music and twenty
clowns mounted on Rocky Mountain
canaries, as burros are called in the
west, are continually devoting them
selves to making fun for old and
young alike.

"A SPLENDID TONIC !"
Says HixsOn Lady Who, On Doc
tors Advice, Took Cardui
And Is Now Well.

Hixson, Tenn.-"About 10 years ago
I was. :" says Mrs. j. B. Gadd, of
this place. 81 suffered with a pain in
my left side, could not sleep at night
with this pain, always in the left
side...
My doctor told me to use Cardui
took one bottle, which helped me and
after my baby came, / was stronger
and better, but the pain was still
there.
l at first let it go, but began to get
weak and in rundown condition,
so | decided to try some more Cardui,
which l did.
This last Cardui which | took made
me much better, in fact, cured me. 1t
has been number of years, still l
have TO return of this trouble.
I feel it was Cardui that cured me,
and recommend it as splendid fe-
male tonic"
Don't allow yourself to become
weak and rundown from womanly
troubles. Take Cardui. 1t should sure
ly help you, as it has so many thou
sands of other women in the past 40
years. Headache, backache, sideache,
nervousness, sleeplessness, tired-out
feeling, are all signs of womanly trou-
BILE. Other women get relief by taking
Cardui. Why not you? ALI druggists.

Old Confederate Rebel Yell"
Will Be Heard in the Trenches

ATLANTA, Ca, Oct. 1.-THE famous
rebel yell, the battle cry of the Con-
federacy, which thrilled civil war
soldiers, will ring over the bloody
division, composed of troops trained
i'll Atlanta, faces the German armies.
The battle cry, which has gone down
in history as the most blood-stirring
ever heard on any battlefield, and
which was so dear to the hearts of the
southern men who went to the war in
1861, will be taught General Eben
Swift's men at Camp Gordon by
company of confederate veterans.
Another bond between the north
and south will have been wrought
when the "Yanks" of the SIND instill
terror in the hearts of the enemy by
the almost forgotten cry of the cor
federacy General Eben Swift, COM
mander of the SIND division has re-
quested Federal Judge William T
Newman, an old soldier, to make ar
rangements for company of veterans
to go out to Camp Gordon and demon
strate the yell.

What and How You Can Save
III Arranging Your Eating

Sugar
Use less candy and sweet drinks
Use less sugar in tea and coffee. Use
honey, maple syrup, and dark syrup
for hot cakes and waff1es without but
ter or sugar Do not frost or ice
cakes. Do not stint the use of sugar
i'll putting up frits and jams They
may be used in place of butter.
Vegetables and Fruits
We have superabundance of yege-
tables. Double the use of vegetables.
They take the place of the wheat and
meat, and at the same time, are health
full. Use potatoes abundantly. Store
potatoes and roots properly and they
will keep. Use fruits generously.
Fuel
Coal come from distance and our
railway facilities are needed for war
purposes. Burnfewer fires. If you
can get wood, use it.

AnpIs Fruit Of Many Uses.

There is no fruit that lends itself
to so many varied uses as the apple.
1t may be eyaporated or dried and
kept an indefinite period and then
cooked in much the same way as
fresh fruit, There are also many by
products. The juice is pressed and
used according to it's age and stages
of fermentation as sweet cider, hard
cider or vinegar. The whole apple
and even the parings from the evap-
orators are used for apple butter, jel-
lies, jams, etc, and in recent years
the culls and cores from the evapo-
rators have been dried and sold for
"a a ton for export to Europe and re-
turned to us later in the form of
high priced imported wines"

CHINA DOE sN'T KNOW
ITS OWN GOVERNMENT

PEKING, Oct Unconstitutional
ity is the wall behind which contend
ing factions in China are taking refuge.
Premier Tuan Chi-jui insists that the
republic which he re-established IN
Picking with President Feng Kuo-
chang at it's head, is the constitutional
government of China.
The so-called parliament at Canton
consisting of fifty or sixty members
of the dissolved parliament ihsdsts
that it is the constitutional govern
ment OF China, and that Ii Yuan-hung
still is the president
Sun Yat-sen, have confessed every
important change in the central gov
eminent during the last few months,
The constitutionalists. now active
in south China under the direction c.
and denounced it as unconstitutional
They say Ii Yuan-hung had no right
to dissolve parliament, and that there
certainly is nothing in the NankinC
provisional constitution which justi-
fed such action
Consequently, according to their
line of reasoning, Feng Kuo-cnang is
neither the legal president nor the
legal acting president of China.
There is some doubt as to what
Fen Kuo-chang's own contention is
as to his legal status. While he has
permitted all foreign legations to be
presented to him as president and
signs official documents as president,
he is represented to provisional author
tiles as being only acting president.
1t is believed that Feng Kuo-chang IS
undoubtedly anxious to be elected
president by a parliament legally con-
stituted, or constituted as legally as
it is possible to do under the present
unsettled conditions in China He
has held out against the plan of his
cabinet to have national council
formed with five members from each
province to act parliament.
Feng Kuo-chang heads a de facto
government which actually exists
in Peking, and has the support of
ninEen provinces and the recognition
of all important foreign powers.
Therefore, the efforts of the opposition
In the south to oppose the Peking
government and deny its legal exist
ence. thus far seems futile.

Il want my men taught the rebel
yell for their use in France" General
Swift said recently. Il met Judge
Newman on the occasion of recent
visit by him to see the camp and at
that time suggested to him that the
Irebel yell would not sound badly when
we meet the Germans Our boys will
use use it when the go over the top. =
Judge Newman said that he would
make every effort to comply with the
generals request. The sad death of
General West delayed his plans, how
ever, and it may be some days before
the necessary steps can be taken to
get the veterans to assemble at the
camp.
Southerners will be thrilled to learn
that the battle cry Of their fathers will
again ring out in defense of freedom
and democratic principles. It is ex-
pected that the precedent set by Gen
eral Swift will be followed in other
camps, and before long the entire Unit
ed States army may be using the yell
when they charge.

GASOLINE IN ENGLAND

SCARCITY.

LONDON, Oct 17.-(By Mail.-Joy
riding in the British Isles is no long
er a joy Gasoline prices took anoth-
Ter running-broad jump today of IS
cents. The market price is now $1Oq
per gallon.
The newest increase in gasoline is
going to hit several millions of the
common people. Much of the street
transportation is by huge motor buses.
Already they are planning on boosting
the fares to keep up with the soaring.
The few remaining tavicabs on the
streets will be forced to increase thei,
rates. Despite the traffic prices OF
fuel, the rate of about 16 cents per
mile compare fayorably with the
charges in American cities in normal
ines. Now, however, they are talk
ing of 20 and % cents per mile.
Leading dealers in gasoline explain
hat the prices were made necessary
by the high insurance rates on tank
ships, assurances on those ships is
now IS per cent of their value for each
round trip.
Much of the heavy hauling In the
down-twon streets of London is be-
ing done by steam traction engines

CURED BY SERVICE IN ARMY
Confederate Veteran, Condemned by
Doctor to Die in Six Months,
Alive and Hearty at II.

at is curious thing how war serv-
Ice has been the making of many a
man in a physical sense" remarked
Mai w. B. Howard of New Orleans,
Confederate veteran. "Whcn l went
into the Confederate army my doctor
told me that l had tuberculosis and
the chances were against my living for
six months longer / was weak and
emaciated to a painful degree, and [
had not the rCmotcSt doubt but that
my doctor had made d true prophecy.
'T had made up my mind to join
General Lees army anyway, and, after
the mournful diagnosis of the physi-
clan, I was doubly anxious to go to
the front. IL I am going to die of
disease thought /, it were just as
well to have my existence terminated
by a Yankee bullet Lo and behold !
here I am now a sprightly old man of
seventy-seven and with no idea of
shutting off the mortal coil for at
least another decade. That four years
service in the Confederate army made
me healthy and robust, and my expert
ence was that of many another weak
ling. Life in the open air and SUI
shine beats all the medicine In the
world, and you will find that the boys
who come back from the battletields
of Europe, if any of them go over
there, will return much better speci-
mems of physical manhood than when
they went"
