OLD OAKLAND MILL TO GO.
One Owned By Melville Wooden Com
pany To Be Discontinued.

The old mill of the Melville Wooden
Company, at Oakland, in which were
located the dye and picker houses,
will be discontinued in the future and
the two branches of the mill property
moved to new buildings being erected
near the new mill.
Two years ago the mill property was
purchased by John C. Melville and
others from the Oakland Manufacture
ing Company. The property then
consisted of well-equipped mill and
the old mill, which were about
quarter of a mile apart. The old mill
property had reached a stage when
repairs were needed and it was decid-
ed that it would be more advantage
Gus to the company to do away with
the old mill and have the entire plant
located at one place.
A number of improvements also
will be made to the mill property in
the way of installing modern equip
ment. The mill is employing about
$50 persons and is working day and
night on Government contracts, which
have been booked until the first Of
next year. .

First Draft Call on Sept LIST.

More than 100000 men of the selec-
tive draft forces will be called to the
cOlors September LIST to go immedi-
ately to their divisional training can
! tonments. This will bring the
strength of the United States Army
on that date up to practically 100000
men.
! Brigadier-General Crowder, Provost
Narshal-General, dispatched the fol-
lowing telegram to the Governors of
the States last Wednesday, cautioning
them to make certain that the first
one-third of their quota of the first
increment of registered men is ready
in time:
New regulations governing mobili-
ZatiOn and the certification of men
from district boards to adjutants-gen-
eral will be mailed to you on August
9th. In the meantime local boards
should certify to district boards daily
those who have been called and who
have not been exempted or discharged
either because they failed to file any
claim or because their claim had been
decided adversely.
Strict compliance with this rule is
necessary since on September l the
War Department will call for not to
exceed one-third of the quota from
each state to be entrained for mobili-
ZatiOn camps between September l and
September 5. Unless we wish to be put
in a position of not furnishing men as
fast as the War Department Is ready
to receive them, each state should
have accumulated by September l a
minimum of one-third of it's quota not
exempted or discharged. This can only
be attained if local boards certify these
lists up with great expedition"

Annual Reunion of the Belt-PariSh
Family.

The Belt-Parish Association will
hold it's nineteenth annual reunion
on the Emory Grove camp meeting
grounds Thursday, August %. The
grounds are beautiful and no better
place could be selected to hold this
great family reunion. 1t is convenient
to the railroad and to the electric
car lines from Baltimore. The State
roads make it possible to come in
automobile from all parts of the
country in a very short time.
In this day of war and blood shed
we are reminded of other wars in
which some of our noble ancestors
fought. 1t has been shown by some
of the writings found in public librar-
les that the Belts were among the
crusaders There are books found
with such fascinating titles as BELT
and Spurs" Border Lances," SAILS
of the knights of the Middle Ages"
and a number of other works by Rev.
E. L. Belt, of London, England. We
have been able to trace many inter-
esting events in connection with the
Belt-Parris family history to the year
1874 A. D.
The morning session will begin at
9 a. m. with an address of welcome,
a short program of exercises and a
brief memorial service for the de-
parted members of the association,
followed by registration and the en-
rollment of new members, also the
enrolling of new babies on the cradle
roll.
A sumptuous dinner will be served
at the Emory Grove Hotel at a mod
crate price. All persons wishing
dinner at the hotel will notify the
president, Mr.. John D. Belt on or be-
fore August q.
At 2.30 p. M, there will be cradle
roll parade from the hill top to the
tabernacle where we will have the
Children's Hour. Be sure to have
your child in line and ready to take
part in the hours exercise.
Let everyone endeavor to make this
the best reunion ever held by this as

FlJIAN RACE IS DYING OUT
South Sea Islanders No Longer Saw
ages and CannibaI But Humorous,
! Good-Natured Loafers.

The Fiji islands abound in reputa-
ton. To our grandparents they were
the last word in barbarism, a smile
for anything at once remote and ter,
rible, a place where missionaries got
stewed-by the cannibals-and clothes
were worn not at all.
The general impression Of the South
Sea islands as a wild and degenerate
part of the world was softened and IL
lumined by the writings Of Mark
Twain about Hawaii and by Robert
Louis Stevenson's essays from Samoa.
But no one wrote anything important
about the Fijians, and that is why the
islands and people today are so very
different from what you would expect
to find them.
The Fijians are not only no longer
savages and cannibals, but they are
fast disappearing altogether. Hindus,
Englishmen and Samoans are the toll
ers of the islands. The fierce Solomon
islander is seen here, too, but is more
apt to be hunting your laundry than
your head. The Fijian, still distin-
guished by the frizzled aureole of his
hair and the scantiness of his attire
is a humorous, good-natured loafer.
His native island is rapidly being
taken away from him by more indus
trious peoples, and his race is dying
out; but these things worry him not
at all. He lives by the fish Of his
rivers and the wild fruit Of the jungle,
and by the skill of his wife in pottery
and other handicrafts. He has given
up cannibalism in Difference to popu-
lar opinion, 1t is true, but in other
ways he still lives his life much as he
pleases, which is more than most Of
us ever achieve.
