MOUNTED INFANTRY
 FIND WORK EASIER
Col. Crenshaw Says "106th Trains" Offers Chance for Varied and
 Less Hazardous Service

Capt Hal F. Halstead of the army re- cruiting office here. Is in receipt of 8 letter from Colonel Allen Crenshaw, 106th Trains, written in Camp Wheeler, Ga. in which he speaks very enthusiastically in regard to the change recently made whereby infantrymen now man trucks, automobiles, motorcycles and other ve- hicles. He says the majority of their work is entirely behind the lines of bat tie and that any gentleman who has re- luctanty held back for this reason may now present himself for enlistment with out fear. This branch is becoming very popular both on account of the variety of the work involved and the less expos ure to danger.
 Coionel Crenshaw says:
 ''Since our arrival at this place we have undergone most wonderful transforma- tion. Instead of being footsore and weary infantrymen, we are now to ride proudly on trucks, automobiles, motorcycles, cais- sons, wagons. horses and mules. There Is not a man in the entire outfit who win not be in some. way mounted. In addition to this, our labors when we ar rive in France will be conducted almost entirely behind the lines out of danger It appears to me that this should prove rather inviting to quite number of re- luctant gentlemen, including truck drivers. teamsters. automobile ex. perts, and motorcycle men, who no doubl have hung back all this time due to theii disinclination to undergo danger and sub. ject themselves to the weariness of fool work incident to an infantrymans life We are going to need all these artisans and If you can procure them for us. ws will be delighted.
 sOur desippatfOp fho 1n6fb Ira n and any enlistment made to go to then will reach us. and we will place then where they can best be used. in any company to which they wish to go.
 Except for the transformation and tht loss of the machine gun company ane band. We are intact. although we wi. never look the same again"

MAN FOUND GUILTY
Of KILLING GIRL

ONEY, Ills. Jan. 10.-Roy Hinter-
letter, charged with the murder of Eliz-
abeth Radcliff, was found guilty here
today of manslaughter. Sentence has
not been imposed.
The Radcliff girl, who was killed
several months ago, died while in COM
pany of Hinterleiter, who brought the
body to the home of her parents here,
explaining the girl had died suddenly,
gasping for breath while they were
seated beneath a tree several miles
from the city, and dying within a few
minutes. An autosy disclosed the pres
ence of air in the girls veins, and an
investigation resulted.
The finding of catheter in the bug
gy driven by Hinterleiter directed sus-
picion upon him. and the youth was
arrested. He admitted intimate rela-
tons with the girl and later confessed
Miss Radcliff died during an illegal
operation which the girl attempted to
perform upon herself, using surgical
Instruments provided by Hinterleiter.

PRICE OF FOOD MAY
CAUSE PELLAGRA

That there may be an increase in pei
lagra during the coming year ON ac-
count of the rise in the cost of food
stuffs is the fear expressed in a state
ment issued by the United States public
health service today. AS a result of
government researches, it was found that
pellagra is produced by an insufficient
and poorly balanced diet. and that it
can both be prevented and cured by the
use of food containing elements in the
proportion required by the body. The
application of this knowledge greatly
reduced peliagra in 1916 as compared
with previous years. This reduction is
believed by experts of the public health
service to have been due to improved
economic conditions which enabled
wage-earners to provide themselves
with better and more varied diet and
to wider dissemination of the know
ledge of how the disease may be pre-
vented. 1t is feared, however, that pei
lagra may increase in 1917 by reason
of an increase in food cost out of
proportion to the prosperity now enjoy
ed by this country. The great rise in
the cost of forage. particularly cotton
seed meal and hulls, is causing people
in many localities to sell their COWS
and thus there is danger that they will
deprive themselves of milk, one of the
most valuable pellagra preventing
foods. The high cost of living has fur
Their served to bring about a reduc-
ton in many families in the amount of
meat, egs, beans and peas consumed,
all of which are pellagra prophylactics.
In effecting economies of this nature,
the general public should bear in mind
the Importance of a properly balanced
diet and refrain from excluding, if pos
sible, such valuable disease preventing
foods. 1t is believed that unless this
is done there will be a greater Incl
dence of pellagra next spring.

MANY CITIES TO Be
At ATLANTA MEET

Atlanta. Ga, Jan. 1O.-Not only ev-
cry city in the South, but also most OF
the large cities of the North and East
will be represented at the annual con-
yention of the National Association OF
Builders exchanges to be held in At
lanta for four days beginning February
18th next.
1t will be the first time the South

Where andHou
Far These
Prayers

ATLANTA, Ga. Jan. 10.-Will the
ministers of Atlanta comply with the
astonishing request of Mrs. j. w
helms for them to pray for the convic-
ton of Mrs. Victor E. Innes when she
comes to trial on the charge of lar
ceny after truth in connection with the
mysterious disappearance of Mrs
Nelms' two daughters two years ago?
And if the ministers comply with her
request, will the influence Of their
prayers be felt by the jury that tries
the woman?
So extraordinary was the proce-
dure Of Mrs. helms that the attorneys
for Mrs. lines have not yet determined
exactly how to proceed, or what they
can do by way of protest, if anything.
Since the disappearance of her two
daughters two years ago, Mrs. helms
has devoted all of her time and her
money as we'll, to the prosecution OF
Victor E. Innes and his wife. 1t was
she who brought them to trial in San
Antonio, Tex, on charge of murder
irg the missing girls, and it was she
" no obtained their extraditoin to Geor-
gia on a charge of larceny after trust,
when the jury in the Texas city failed
to convict them, because the bodies OF
the girls could not be produced. 1t
was she who pressed the prosecution OF
the lawyer and his wife in Fulton Su-
perior court. obtaining conviction Of
Inness on the charge of larceny after
trust, and a sentence of seven years
against him.
And now it is the heart-broken
mother, relentless in her fight against
the man and woman who, in her opin-
ion, killed her daughters and de-
stroyed their bodies in acid, that has
called upon the ministers of Atlanta to
pray for the conviction of Mrs. Innes.
Victor E. lines is still confined in
Fulton county jail awaiting the out
come Of an appeal to the higher courts
for a new trial on the charge Of lar
ceny after trust.
