DRAFTED MEN
To Have Free Assistance From Legal
Fraternity OF The County.

The attorneys Of the Garrard county
bar met at the court house Monday
morning for the purpose of perfecting
an organization to assist and advise the
drafted men Of the county in preparing
the missionaries being mailed bv the
Local Board to each registered man.
Those attorneys present were, X. II.
Tomlinson, L. l.. Walker. VIM. Hern-
don. j. Z. Robinson. II. Clay X Kaufman.
w. b. Mason. John W. Miller and q.
c. Walker. X. II. Tomlinson was
elected chairman, and II. c. Kaufman
secretary of the meeting. 1t was the
sense of the meeting that the attorneys
of the bar would give aid and assistance
to the bows who are called, in the diff
ticult task in making answer to the
questions put to them by Uncle Sam.
1t was decided to have two attorneys
present at the county count room each
day in the week except Sunday and
legal holidays to work for all the boys
who desire the assistance offered. The
hours will be from nine TO twelve and
from one to four each day. 1t has
proven to be difficult job to make out
these papers and the attorneys will
probably call for volunteers among the
ladies' of the city to assist in doing the
writing in making out the answers re-
uuired There will be forty six each
day as sent out by the Local Board and
it will probably turn out that two at
torneys will not be able to do all the
work in one day. These papers prop
eriy prepared according to the rules
must be returned to the Local Board
within seven days from the date it is
mailed to the drafted man, or he for
feits his right to claim any exemption
or to any claims for deferred call. The
attorneys who have volunteered to as
SYST will be on duty at the County court
room in the court house. On Monday
of each week, l.. l.. Walker and Il. c.
kaufman; Tuesday, X. IL. Tominson
and q. G. Walker; Wednesday, Vim.
Herndon and W. b. Mason: Thursday,
j. +. Robinson and j. W, Miller; FRI
day, Il. G. Kaufman and G. c. Wal
ker; Saturday, VIM. Herndon and W.
b. Mason. This is quite sacrifice of
time by these attorneys and will be ap.
preciated by the drafted men.

HEMP BREAKING Machine
Promises To Be A Reality. Lancaster
Man Inventor.

A problem that has long taxed the
ingenuity Of many men. is the invention
of successful hemp breaking machine.
and since Garrard county is nationally
noted for her immense products Of this
necessary fiber. il seems that il has
fallen to the fate Of a Garrard county
man to invent one. that from every in
dication looks to be success and that
the hemp breaking machine is no lon
ger dream but reality.
Mr.. A. l.. Trumbo. of this city has
been working OF a machine of this
character for the past two wears and
has one now nearly completed in the
Arcade building on Danville street and
which the writer had occasion to in.
spect few days ago.
At first sight one is Immediately i'm
pressed with its simplicity. yet while
the machine when completed. will pos
sibly weigh about 5000 pounds, an
armful of hemp can be run through the
machine, while being turned by one
hand. Ten corrugated rollers. eight
inches in diameter, five above and five
below, does the work of breaking the
fiber. on the principle of huting iron
and the fiber Is carried back where il
comes in contact with about twenty
shakers. that knock out the hurds, the
latter being carried back to the center
Of the machine. where it is blown out
the side by means of fan, which does
Its work properly.
-Four men can easily operate this
wonderful invention and Mr.. Trumbo
informs " that it will have a capacity
of 1000 pounds a day.
The machine is attracting the at
tention of MANY influential farmers OF
this and adjoining counties and all with
whom We have spoken pronounce it a
success, and say when perfected will
be one of the greatest labor saving
machines ever invented.
A practical demonstration will be
given just as soon as the hemp is suf-
ticiently rotted, at which time the pub
lie will have chance to pass on the
merits of this break. which from our
viewpoint. looks to be success.

A fine SHOT

Two German airmen dropped bombs
on body of troops marching along "A
Flanders road in the moonlight. Some
shots failed. but Mt last a fine shot"
was made A bomb struck in the cen
ter of the column of troops. Twenty
nine men We're killed and forty-o one
wounded. The only thing that married
the success of the affair from the stand
point Of the German airmen was that
the troops struck by the bomb were
German prisoners. The writer adds;

funeral, with all the German prisoners
forced to attend"

GERMANS GIVE POISONED CANDY
TO CHILDREN.

Clergymen who attended the Monday
meeting of the Methodist Preachers of
New York at the Methodist Book con-
Germ, New York, were greatly shocked
by the statement of the Rev. E. M.
Byssche that Germans manufactured
poisoned candy and ordered soldiers in
northern France and Belgium to distrib-
ute it.
Mr.. Byssche went to France as the
representative of the Methodist Board of
Foreign Missions to distribute 500, 900
war relief funds raised by Methodists in
this country, and told the preachers he
had seen both the candy and it's effects
upon unsuspicious children, especially in
the towns of northern France recently
vacated by the German troops.
"Such conduct" said Mr.. Byssche, as
many clergymen clenched their hands
and gasped, "is not war. The Germans
claim through their Kaiser to be very
near God; to be doing what He would
have them do. ask you what would be
left for the followers of the devil toSo?
This is boiled down barbarism of the
worst, of the most contemplate type. 1t
is worthy of death to anybody, to any
government. There can be no doubt
about who made the candy or who put it
in secret places where children would be
likely to find it. l speak of things l
saw"

MOTOR CARS NEEDED
TO CARRY TROOPERS
Rapid Time Made Where Automobiles are
Available.

When it comes to matters military,
little Visalia, Cal, is not only patriotic
but strictly modern. A short time ago
the recruiting officers in that town were
Informed that a machine gun company
was needed in hurry by the Second
California Infantry.
A rapid fire recruiting campaign pro-
duced the men in "a hours and then a
dozen business men of Visalia, who own
Dodge Brothers motor cars, offered to set
the new recruits at the Preside at San
Francisco in record time.
This was the first attempt at moving
troops long distances by motor in the San
Joaquin Valley and it was watched with
much interest by military men.
The 23O-mile run was made in eight
and one-half hours, with an average
speed of 81 miles an hour. The first half
of the trip was completed with 35-mile
average, but rain and slippery roads cut
the average to q before the ferry at Oak
land was reached.
While the number of men moved in
this particular instance was small, the
run demonstrated that the number of
troops it would be possible to rush to a
given point would depend wholly on the
number of motor cars available.
The only delay reported on the entire
trip was occasioned by five punctures.
The performance of the Dodge Brothers
cars aroused high praise from the officers
who accompanied the recruits on the trip.
