One of the most important opera
tons in the annals of Georgia sur
gerry was performed at the Woodard-
Hall sanitarium at Abel, Georgia, when
Mrs. Estes princess Tinie), the we'll
known carnival midget, weighing but
thirty pounds, was delivered by the
Caesarian route of bouncing baby
boy weighing six pounds. Mother and
child are doing we'll and the baby will
live.
Princess TIME is thirty-two years
cid and has been on the road for four
years, during which time she has COW
cred practically all of the United
States. She was born in Virginia of
normal parents-no dwarfs on either
side. She was married three years
ago to Mr. Estes. a native of Tennes-
see, thirty-eight years old and weigh
ing two hundred and twenty pounds.
This operation was the second Of
this kind to be performed on this
patient, the first having been done in
the city hospital at Greenville, S. c.,
en- November !, last year, when baby
girl weighing one and quarter
pounds was delivered. This operation
was witnessed by scientific men from
all over the country. The child, how
ever, did not survive.
The youngster born last month is
in every way normal, and bids fair to
become as large as his father. His
mother is perhaps the smallest living
woman, certainly the smallest living
woman with a living child. Both
mother and father are very proud of

u. S. Santa Claus
Must Provide Toys
For Blind Riddles

HALIFAX, N. S., Dec. 21.-An Amer
lean Santa Claus must provide toys
for hundreds OF blind and crippled
children in hospitals here. The limited
stock carried by the local dealers has
been exhausted.
A committee Of women to which was
assigned the duty of bringing Christ
mas cheer to victims of the explosion
and fire that laid bare the less popu-
lous section of Halifax, found today
that unless shipments were received
from the United States, within the
next few days, plans for filling the
stockings of destitute children could
not be carried out.
Today for the first time since the
disaster crowds in the street were
able to see evidences that the holiday
season is approaching. But the toy
shops were empty. as the stocks had
been taken over by the women's COM
mittee for distribution Monday night
The supply is inadequate and it is for
this reason that Americans are asked
to help Immediately.

time lent their assistance, and in a
few moments fair sized posse was
hot on the train of Willis. Mr.. Will

GERMANS FEAR THE
new BRITISH GUNS

With the British Armies in the
Field. April 4.-Letter to the Free
|man-Tribune from U. p. Correspon-
dent: The smashing effect of Brit
|ish artillery and its demoralizing in
1uence on the Germans continue to
be the theme of deserters and prison
ers' confessions, soldiers diaries and
reports of officers.
From II a. m. until $3.50 p. NJ.
the trench lay under heavy and
very effective fire which continued
without STOP" wrote Company COM
mander of the 31st Infantry Regi-
ment of the 18th Division in his re-
port which was captured with the
writer. Nothing is left of the
trenches and the dugouts are SO much
damaged that they cannot be used
The location of our dugouts must be
accurately known, as shell after
shell burst right on top of them, or
quite close by. Also between 10 and
II p. m. the enemy's artillery of both
medium and heavy calibre shclled
the trench with unprecedented VIC
lence. Enemy airmen lowered over
our positions the whole day and came
down very low. They directed the
fire throughout. Our own artillery
seemed to have fired very little. Ger
man airmen appeared only towards
evening but the enemy's airmen
would not let themselves be disturb
ed in their work. Nothing is left
of the trench.
"The enemy appears to be using
a new type of gun and shell. A red
flame is visible but we cannot hear
the report of the gun. The. shell
bursts with an explosion resembling
that of mine and the destructive
area of the burst is large. consider
it my duty to draw attention of the
battalion staff to the fact that in the
event of a bombardment of equal in
tensity tomorrow, no dugouts will be
left to provide shelter"

tear up things in general. Nearly
every Monday morning upon going

broken out of both gum machines
and all the gum stolen. After hav-
ing this trouble several times they
put in a piece of tin instead of the
glass front and the other day one
gum machine had disappeared. the
