GEORGIA BOYS AT
MILLS REAL VETS
OF RAINBOW UNIT
CONTINUED from Page ~

City, but from Hampstead. Mineola, Far
Rockaway and Oyster Bay.
1t may be slightly overstating the
case to say that the treatment accord
ed the Georgians is typical of that
shown other units. If anything, the
Crackers have Jared better than most
Of the others, and there's reason.
LIKE SOUTHERN GENTLEMEN.
Not since Major Cooper d. Winn. Jr,,
marched his battalion from the railway
station to the place assigned them in
the big encampment has the One Hun
dred and Fifty-1rst had a guard house.
That is to say, not a single member of
the Georgia machine gun battalion has
been under arrest for a serious infrac-
ton of military discipline. They have
conducted themselves as gentlemen, and
have won the admiration and respect not
only of local residents but of their COM
rades in other divisional units.
Of course, you understand, there have
been minor infractions of the regulations
now and then. OCCASIONALLY an enlisted
man has overstayed his leave, and on
one rare occasion several passed the
night in New York City without permits
sion. But Major Winn didn't put them
in the guard house. He assessed fines,
and let it be known that it would be
his p.licy to fine the men, rather than
imprison them.
We've had no serious offenses, and
only a few minor infractions,' he ex-
planned. Whats the sense in stigma
thing a worthy fellow by a guard house
sentence and thus deprive him of neces-
sary military training, when better re-
suits may be accomplished by assess
ing a fine"
The plan has worked admirably. The
soldiers are not keen to separate with
their money without getting value re-
ceived. and a few hours in New York
isn't worth what 1T costs, more especial
ly when it isn't difficult to secure the
leave.
When it is considered that the camp
of the Rainbow division is within the
shadow of the great metropolis, with
the lure of it's white lights. excitement
and temptation, it is little short of mar
vellous that the discipline has been so
wonderful.
The Georgia battalion is composed of
the real veterans of the division. No

Every Star on the Flag Stands
for a Man Who Has Entered
the Service of His Country
for the Cause of Liberty

The Journals service flag, showing
the service of their country. flies today
from the front of The Journal building.
The flag is red, with white union on
which are sewn black stars. one star
for each man who has gone to war
There are fifty stars on The Journals
flag, with room for more.
These flags are flying everywhere in
northern and eastern cities, and The
Journal hopes that other Atlanta firms
will soon fly theirs. Many of them have
sent anywhere from ten to a hundred
men to the colors and there is no bet
ter way to honor them than by flying
a service flag.
The flag can be- bought for no great
sum, or it can easily be made Space
may be left for additional stars, and, If
wished. the stars may be blue instead
of black. although black is the prevail
ing color.
Many residences fly service flags, in
cases where homes have sent one or
more sons to the colors.
Here are the fifty represented by the
stars on The Journals flag.

BEEF OFF BOARD
AT CITY HOTELS
IN FOOD ECONOMY
Atlanta Cooperating With
Herbert Hoover in Effort to
Save Meat for Soldiers
Fighting Against the Kaiser

There was no planked steak, roast
beef or the like to be had in Atlanta
hotels Tuesday.
No, stree! The first of the beefless
days had arrived and, true to their
agreements. the leading hotels and res
taurants eliminated from their menus
beef in all forms.
Even the man who had pruned him
self for a hot beef stew to brace him
against the chill air was doomed to dis
appointment. Even the stew was not
to be had.
This committee. under the chairman
ship of William r. Seeker, of the Ansley
hotel has brought about a beefless day
with les sthan a weeks planning. AS
sisting Mr.. Seeker were A. r. Evans,
of the Winecoff, and H. A. Tisdel, of
the Aragon. They have personally in
terviewed and secured pledges of sup
port from nearly every cafe and res
taurant manager in Atlanta.

5 Bushels of Potatoes
For Every Albanian

Especial Dispatch to The Journa h
MONTGOMERY, Ala, Oct. 10.-If Ala
bama is forced to consume it's supply
of sweet potatoes within the state. every
person who treads the highways of the
commonwealth must eat eight bushels.
This conclusion has been reached by
James A. Wade, state commissioner of
agriculture. Several months ago a
preacher of diversification said plant
sweet potatoes" Every farmer did. AS
a result this state has gathered 10000
900 bushels There are only 1000, 900
people in the state and this gives each
person eight bushels.
Much of the crop will be shipped,
while the agricultural department is
hoping persons who have been consum-
ms foodstuffs that may be cared for in
shipment will use the potatoes. as they
do not keep for many weeks

other units in the command has been so
long in continuous service The Geor-
gians have been actually in the federal
service for over sixteen months. They
were among the few who were not mus
tered out upon their return from the
Mexican border.
During the sixteen months the men
have been in the service they have
learned all about soldering. They have
respect for their uniform, respect for
themselves and just pride in maintain
ing the excellent record that is theirs.
They appreciate, moreover. the consider
ate treatment they have received from
their officers, and all ofthem are anx-
ious to cooperate With their superiors.
COMPLEXION OF COMPANY.
No command in the Rainbow division
is composed of company unit richer
in tradition than the Georgia machine
gun battalion. While practically every
section of Georgia is represented in the
battalion. it's frame work is composed
of companies B, and F of the Second
regiment. Georgian antional guard for
merly commanded by General Walter
Harris, of Macon.
Company b. originally was the Macon
Volunteers; company c. the Floyd Ri
files; and company F, the Macon HUI
Ears. Each has a history of many years
standing. The Macon Volunteers were
organized in 1923. and fought. with dis
tinction through the Mexican. the Civil
and the Spanish-American wars. The
Floyd Rifles. organized in 1S4S, has a
record little less lengthy oId just as re-
spected The Huzzars were organized in
1889. and won a reputation in the Span
ish-American war.
