WORLDS SUGAR STOCK
RAPIDLY DIMINISHING

Washington, May 21.-With the
worlds stock of sugar being rapidly
depleted, the department of agricul-
ture today appealed to sugar manu-
facturers and farmers to increase the
production of sugar. Prospects are,
according to the departments ex-
perts, that in many portions of the
area devoted to sugar beets in this
country the acreage this year will ex-
coed that of any previous year.
Sugar. an important food in time
of peace" the statement said, SIS
doubly so in time of war, both be-
cause of the energy contained in a
pound of sugar as compared with a
pound of other foods and because the
conduct of modern war has DEVELOPED
many additional uses for sugar.
Therefore, the sugar companies and
farmers would be performing a pa
triotic duty by increasing the sugar
output this season.

ALLEGED CONSPIRACY
AGAINST CONSUMPTION

Dallas, Texas, May 2l-The United
States grand jury empaneled here
today was ordered by Judge George
Jack to use all diligence in investigat-
ing the alleged conspiracy to make
armed resistance to Consumption,
which agents of the department of
justice claim to have uncovered in
north and west Texas.
Judge Jack spoke of the activities of
the Farmers and Laborers Protective
Association of America, which, he
said, had first been brought to his
attention while he was holding court
in San Sangelo last year. He said
the charges bordered on treason and
practically directed the jury to spend
its entire time investigating the allcg-
ed conspiracies.

made no statement No arrests other
than the ones here and two or three
in eastern Texas have been made

CONNECTS BOOZE BARREL
WITH BATH TUB FAUCET

Atlanta, Ga, May 19-The truth of
the old proverb that necessity is the
mother or invention was never more
strikingly demonstrated than in
scheme for concealing liquor which
has just been unearthed by the At
lanta detectives and agents OF 1.-THE
government working in conjunction.
A 6O-gallon barrel concealed in the
cellar of the home of ]. v. Fain was
connected with the hot water pipe in
the bath room, and when the water
faucet was turned on, corn liquor flow
ed instead OF aqua pura The hot wat
er pipe had been disconnected from
the hot water tank, and the 6O-gallen
barrel furnished the fluid that former
ly flowed from the tank. An ingeni-
Gus air pressure arrangement furnish
ed the power to drive the liquor out Of
the barrel into the pipe.
Suspicious neighbors reported to
the police that they believed Fain
had quantities of liquor in the house.
Officers searched the premises sever
al times before they discovered his
clever scheme.

INHERITANCE TAX COMMITS
SIONS PROVING PROFITABLE

Atlanta, Ga, May 22.-Discussion
of the payment of commissions to at
torneys for collecting inheritance
taxes due the state appears to have
subsidized, following Attorney General
Clifford Walkers statement showing
that the commissions were decidedly
profitable investment for the state.
lnasmuch as the arrangement con-
templates only the payment of COM
missions in cases where the inherit
ance tax would not be paid unless an
attorney in the county where the es-
tate was administered took the matter
in hand, the opinion prevails among
capitol officials and members of the
legislature that the commissions are
a good business proposition for the
State.f
In case where an inheritance tax
was due the state but was not paid
there is no machinery, other than the
arrangement made by Attorney Gen
eral Walker, to enforce the payment
of the tax. Where an attorney en-
forces the payment of the tax and is
paid a commission of 10 per cent his
compensation for this service to the
state is no more than would be his
compensation for collecting bill for
any other client.

LATIN QUARTER MoURNS

London, May 22.-Soho, London's
Latin quarter, has just passed through
a spaghetti-less week. The national
dish of Italy had long ago been placed
on the list of prohibited imports, but
the supplies on hand were not ex-
hausted until week ago. Then all
Soho mourned
Now, however, this is all changed
A son ofAsunny Italy who conducts
one OF the tempting table dhote re-
sorts in the Italian colony came to
the rescue by setting up a macaroni
factory. He has not been able to
make sphagetti, which requires spec
ial machinery to make the holes in
it, but he is turning out miles of the
long, narrow ribbons called macaroni.
This will have to suffice until the
sphagetti-making machinery arrives
from his native land.

Russian Crisis Acute;
Radicals At Work

New York, May 22.-While there is
little immediate prospect OF sensation
al developments in the battle area,
the political situation remains fraught
with many possibilities. The latest
news from Russia indicates that the
crisis in that country continues acute
and the menace that Russia may
either withdraw from the Entente or
be plunged into chaos still throws its
shadow over the future. The Russian
radicals are apparently as determined
as ever to reject the war program OF
England and France, but they show
almost as much reluctance as Berlin
to define their precise aims. A confer
,ence is projected at which the coali-
ton government will be asked for a
frank statement of its position and
there are rumors that the Russian
radicals intend to attempt to force re-
pudiation of Russia's treaties with the
entente
Another complication has arisen in
the Russian situation through a move
ment in Finland for complete indie
pendence of Russia. A congress of the
most influential interests in the grand
duchy has adopted resolution favor
ing such separation.

WAR RESTORES OLD TIME
POWER TO NEWSPAPERS

Atlanta. Ga, May 22.-War has
wrought many wonderful changes in
all departments of modern life, and
none more striking than the power it

People are turning today to the edi-
torial page for the expert opinion of
the editor, expressed in the clear Ian
guage of the trained writer, for guild
ance in the shaping of their opinions

R1NTLEN AND LAMAR

New, York, May 21.-One year in

upon Captain Franz Rintelen, of the
Germany navy; David Lamar and H.

yesterday to interfere with shipment
OF munitions to the Entente Allies.

The Fitzgerald Public Schools clos
ed their twenty-frst successful year
of existence Tuesday. The attend
ance throughout the year was greater
than ever before, although it showed a
falling off in the High School during
the last term.
White and colored, there were near
ly LOO enrolled, of these there were
500 in the colored schools, 800 at the
High School, 100 at the Pine street
school and the other 300 at the First
Ward building
None of the buildings were over
crowded, although the days we're. The
one-session plan relieved the conges-
ton and as an emergency measure
worked splendidly Great credit is
due to Mr.. Osborne and the school
board for evolving the plan and thus
preventing the great loss to the school
children and the town which would
have resulted from the destruction of
the buildings, otherwise
Next year, however, our school will
be completely and conveniently
housed. The Second Ward and Third
Ward building will be complete by
September and each Ward will have a
chance to develop its own school
spirit and its own school, We hope
to see great activity in lines outside
of the regular school work in all the
ward schools. If the teachers could
develop the same spirit of friendly
rivalry which existed between the two
ward schools several. years back it
would work wonders for the schools
as whole and for each individual STU
dent. The responsibility rests with
the teachers. They, of all people,
should be innocent of the sin of
"clock watching"
The regular school work at the
High School has progressed splendid
ly, maintaining the momentum of pre-
vious years. In all branches an equal
amount of work has been done and in
many branches much more
In school activities, athletic and lit
erary, we have for the most part been
highly successful. In football Fitz-
| Hi had winning team and really
seemed to have a fighting chance at
the High School championship of the
section. Prof. Stringer and the ma
Jorlty of the team were not willing to
exclude ringers, however, and we were
unable to get games with any teams
IN our class. Our showing against
Agricultural school teams was most
excellent, giving us an elusive smell
OF what might have been.
In Basketball we again had win
nng team and this time really did win
- per cent of the games played. Bad
weather on two Fridays cut short the
season. More games might have been
secured in March and Fitz-Hi might
have had Championship Team but
Prof. Stringer decided to start base
ball practice.
There was as much enthusiasm dur
ing March as could be expected for
the summer sport, twelve good play
ers coming out. Several more would
have tried fr the team later but were
practicing for track events. But base
ball was stopped in order to give way
to track work.

The choice was partially vindicated,
however. Fitz-Hi won the big meet
of the year, the district track meet,
although she lost two minor, but none
the less important, contests, against
the End district aggies and the Triton
Hi Team. The first loss was of great
value in seasoning our men for the
Americas grind but the second was
unnecessary.
When the second call was made for
baseball volunteers there was hardly
any response and that fell through
with Thus, taken as a whole, Fitz-
gerald little more than broke even in
athletics, although we had champion
ship material.
However, on the side of literary &C
tivity we met with unqualified success,
on the whole, suffering no important
defeats. In the dramatic line the
school has staged four plays, in two
pairs, and not only made good SHOW
ing before the town but earned nearly
hundred dollars. The first two PLAYS
were Sally Lunn" and THE Fatal
Message. A representative caste from
all the high school grades presented
them and they were an artistic sue
cess on a large scale and a financial
success, too, although in a smaller
tdegree.
OF the two Senior Class plays staged
Monday an account will be found
elsewhere in the paper from the pen
OF Miss Helen Osborne. These PLAYS
were much greater victory than the
first two, earning early three times
the money and proving fully as fine.
The caste was taken wholly from the
Senior Class, although Margaret
Spiller, Soph, Chas Mann and Ed
russell, Juniors, rendered assistance,
for which the class is much obliged"
The Senior Class of 1918 intends to
stage at least six plays and they will
all be well worth the support of the
town.
In the histrionic and ink Singing.
line the school was successful in an
artistic way but had to draw on the
draWma for financial aid At the dis
trict contest Harold Kassewitz, Chas.
Mann, Hazel Mayes and Sarah Nc
Donald won points in the order nam
ed. The High School Annual, the
Fitz-Hi-Way, proved a rather expen-
slve proposition and wiped out all
profits.
Sunday at the Central Methodist
Church, Rev Bleker, of the Episco-
pal Church preached the Baccalau-
reate sermon to the Senior Glass. 1t
was on the text of Success. Success
through Service. 1t was splendid
sermon, we'll fitted to the occasion
and almost perfect in every detail in
thought and construction. The writer
will have to admit that it was the first
sermon he ever heard that he listen
ed TO every word. Rev. Bleker closed
with these words, Gas you climb the
Hill of Life, may you never meet
friend coming down."
1t was truly beautiful sermon and
every boy and girl in the Senior class
thanks Rev. Bleker for the help and
good advice therein.
