FATAL AUTO ACCIDENTS
HAVE AROUSED ATLANTA

ATLANTA, GA, Sept. 25.-Two little
children have been killed by automo-
biles on Atlanta streets in the last
three days, and several grown peo-
pie have been injured.
Every week and every month the
toll of life and limb grows greater,
and apparently the drivers of tuto~
mobiles exhibit an increasing disre-
gard for the speed laws and the traffic
regulation.
Scores of complaints have been filed
with the police department. The news
papers editorially demand the punish
ment of speed fiends. City council
passes resolutions calling for enforce
ment of the laws and ordinances.
But still the reckless running Of
automobiles goes on.

Universal Military Service
Is Program OF United States

ATLANTA, GA, Sept. 25.-That the
United States government is planning
to establish universal military train
ing after the war, so that never again
will war find America unprepared to
defend herself, is the belief of Atlanta
architects and contractors who have
examined the buildings at Camp Cor
don and other environments where
divisions of the National Army are be-
ing trained.
These buildings will last for fifty
years. these men declare They are
b. lit of selected "A Grade" yellow
pine. Floor, walls and roof consist of
heavy sheeting, then heavy layer of
tar paper, then another heavy sheet
ing. With proper care and coat of
paint from time to time, the bildings
should last for more than fifty years,
Each cantonment has a waterworks
ard sewage system and paved streets.
Each barracks has plumbing, baths
and heating plant

How To Reduce Divorces.

ATLANTA, GA, Sept. pa brand
new scheme to reduce divorces and
stop Atlanta in wild career of bidding
fcir to become a rival of Reno, has
been suggested by court officials who
view with alarm the growing uncer-
taintl of the marriage relation.
Briefly, it is to take the quarreling
couple and lock them up alone in a
jury room for half day, to let them
see if they can't patch up their diff
ferences.
Instead of letting the lawyers wran-
gle it out before a jury, the scheme
is to first give the two most interest
ed parties an opportunity to see If
they can't come to an agreement them
selves.
OF course the plan would not be
available in some cases where violent
antagonism exists between the hus-
band and wife, but the court officials
believe it would work in cases where
the separation resulted from disagree
meat oyer trivial matters.

Harvest Prospects in England.

LONDON, Sept 25.-An fficlal state
ment from the food production depart
ment gives a re-assuring view of the
harvest prospects in the British Isles,
and by way of contrast, summary Of
the gloomy situation in enemy coun-
tries.
In England, it is stated, recent re-
ports of damage from rain and storm
were heavily exaggerated While the
recent storms damaged crops in some
areas, there is, speaking generally, not
the slightest ground for public anxiety
or alarm" says the statement
In Germany, on the other hand, the
information received by the British
agricultural authorities is that the
crops are not only exceedingly bad
in the best areas of the German En-
pire, but the whole harvest of the
Central Powers will in all probability
prove disastrous in consequence Of the
vioent weather which has prevailed
over western Europe"

AVIATION SCHOOL MAY
BE OPERATED NEAR ATLANTA


ATLANTA, Ca, Sept. 25.-A great
aviation schoo where at least 1000
student aviators will be trained for
Americas heralded advent nto the
war as an aerial factor is likely to
be established in Gwinnett county,
near Atlanta, if the War Department
approves the recommendations of ex-
perts who have inspected the pro-
posed site at the little town of Gray
son between Lawrenceville and Logan
Vile on the Seaboard Air Line rail-
road.
The training school will consist Of
more than fifty buildings erected at
an estimated minimum cost of $780,
600. Two thousand student aviators
will be constantly in training. There
will be a field one mile square on
which the machines will alight and
from which they will be launched.
Approaching this field will be a run"
three miles in length, through which
the machines will sail at a gradually
descending angle as they come down
to earth. Several hundred instructors
and helpers will be stationed at the
camp in addition to the students.
The governments plan is to estab-
lish an aviation school adjacent to
each of the National Army canton
ments, and students in advanced
stages of instruction will sail from
one cantonment 0 the other, making
trips of several hundred miles.

Scandinavian Fisheries Facing Ruin.

COPENHAGEN, Denmark, Sept 25.-
Scandinavian coast fisheries are fac
ed with absolute ruin on account of the
impossibility of plying their trade this
year in the face of mines and u-boats.
This is the more to be regretted as fish
are more plentiful in the North Sea
than ever before in the history of the
fishing industry Meanwhile the Ger
man trawlers, under government pro-
lection, are making great preparations
for the season. A large new fishing
port at the mouth of the Elbe is in
course of construction.

To UnUeH Monument When
Highway Link is Opened
In Chqttahoochee County

There's regular o. Henry story Of
romance in brick payements down in
Muscogee and Marion counties. Ex-
cept that it's macadam instead of brick
and there's no girl involved,
Muscogee and Marion counties, rich
in the coin of the realm, did their bit
toward building their allotted strips of
the Dixie Overland highway. Between
the two counties lay narrow slip of
Chattahoochee county land that, be-
cause Chattahoochee couldn't at this
particular time provide funds, formed
an undeveloped link in the road.
Whereupon Marion and Muscogee
joined hands and built the Chatta-
hoochee link
The completion of this link makes
the entire highway from Savannah to
Los Angeles ready to travel with the
exception of strip about 200 miles
long.
In commemoration of the opening
OF the Muscogee-Marion -Chattahoo-
chez link monument has been erected
near Columbus and will be unveiled
with appropriate exercises.
John A. Beetjeman, of Columbus, has
invited Governor Dorsey to deliver an
address and fix day for the cere-
monies. Many prominent speakers will
be present and everp PREPARATION is be-
ing made for the great event.
