THIS SEEMS HARD TO

"Pll Be Damned" Exclaimed Ameri-
can, When General Petain
Kissed Soldiers.

SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE
General Petain paid his first visit to
the American army today. He was
accompanied by General Pershing.
After inspecting the troops billeteG
in a number of French villages, the
French general declared that the
training and physique of the Ameri-
can soldiers was excellent, and he
added: 81 think the American army
will be an admirable fighting force
within a short time"
Before visiting the Americans, Pc
tain and Pershing reviewed the
French Chasseur division, which is
instructing the Sammies.
First came presentation of med
ais by General Petain. The troops
were drawn up in line and the men
to be honored stood out in front of
the army. There was fanfare of
trumpets and General Petain moved
forward and bestowed the medal of
the Legion of Honor upon nine men.
With each red ribbon went kiss up
on both cheeks.
The American soldier spectators
looked on in amazement.
"Well I'll be damned" said one,
under his breath, "it's true"

SENATE DISCUSSES
TAX ON PUBLISHERS
SENATOR HARDWICK SAYS THE
NEWSPAPERS ABUSE. INSPIR-
ED BY STAND ON RATES.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Consider-
alton on the senate floor of war
profits taxation-the vital issue in
the fight over the revenue bill-drew
nearer during the day when the SEN
ate struck out provisions for one
cent increase in letter postage and
arranged to dispose of publishers
tax features tomorrow.
Senator Hardwick's motion to
eliminate the letter postage tax, esti-
mated to raise $50,000,000, was
adopted, 80 to 20, and the senate
spent the rest of the day debating
the proposals for increases in sec
ond class mail rates and a 5 per cent.
special tax on publishers incomes.
In eliminating all taxes on first class
mail provision was retained for
free postage on letters mailed by
American soldiers abroad.
In today's debate Senator Weeks
spoke at length for elimination of the
proposed second class mail increase
and the publishers special income
tax. He and other leaders in the con-
test tonight expressed confidence in
adoption of his motion to strike out
both and prominent finance commit
tee members admitted such action
was not improbable.
Senator Mcclellan, of Tennessee,
urged his substitute for the second
class postage section, leaving the
present cent a pound rate operative
within 800 miles and increasing the
rates by zones beyond. Senator
Smoot declared the Mcclellan plan
would bankrupt and destroy many
publications, such as farm, religious
and fraternal.
Hardwick Presents Substitute.
A new substitute provision drawn
and Endorsed by the postoffice depart
ment was presented and supported
by Senator Hardwick, of Georgia 1t
would leave unchanged the present
rate in the first and second parcel
post zones, but establish graduated
system of increased rates on adver-

would raise $14,250,000 additional
revenue next year, as compared with
$3,000,000 proposed by the pending
bill and 100000 under Mr.. Nc
Kellar's amendment.
An increase in postal rates was
urged by Senator Morris, who declar-
ed he did not think it fair to ask the

taxpayers of the country to nay a
subsidy to newspapers and magazines.
Senator Hardwick characterized
Senator McKellar's amendment as
nothing more or less than a propos-
al of the Southeastern Publishers
Association" adding that the post
master general said his amendment
was the only logical solution of the
problem. The Georgia senator then
explained his substitute proposition.
Under its provisions, he said, it
would produce revenues the first year
about equal to those which the fl
nance committee proposed to obtain.
The second year which would begin
on July 1, 1918, it would yield &c.,
52O,885; the third year $19,097, 1858
and the fourth year, $21,674,241.
Even with this provision the deficit
would be heavy, Senator Hardwick
said.
Senator Mcclellan insisted that the
postmaster general had Endorsed his
substitute, although Senator Hard
wick declared his new substitute was
drawn by the department and approx
ed by Mr.. Burleson. In closing Sen
ator Hardwick said:
Endorsed by Postmaster.
although the publishers have put
up poor mouth about print paper
they've passed most of the increase
on, either to the subscriber or adver-
tiser." He said several Georgia news
papers were attacking him because
of his efforts to increase postage
rates.
81 have only contempt and disdain
for Them" he said, for the abuse
they have heaped upon me-"
"The time has come when public
men should no longer be bpll-dozed
by the publishers and for the Ameri-
can people to know where these ar
rogant people get off. With AFRO
gance they assume to control public
men, make and unmake administra-
lions and assume to exercise despotic
powers"

Will MAKE CANDLES FOR
USE OF SOLDIERS In TRENCHES
The Dorothy Walton Chapter D.
r. Has Undertaken Another Branch
OF Patriotic Work.

The Dorothy Walton Chapter,
Daughters of the American Revolu-
ton, are to undertake still another
branch of patriotic work-the max
ing of trench candles. They are
made of rolled newspapers soaked in
parafine. To make a candle ten col
umns of any newspaper (including
margin) are cut on the line, and
each column is Tapped over the other
to form a continuous strip. This is
rolled firmly and evenly, tied with
white thread and boiled slowly in
parafne for twenty minutes. The
candle, which is IA inches long and
one inch in diameter, burns Is min
utes at either end, giving good light
and heat
These have been a blessing to the
soldiers in the trenches, as they not
only give light and heat, but furnish
the means of heating their rations.
The cutting and rolling can be done
by groups of children, if supervised.
The candles will be collected and
dipped at stated intervals.

why YOU ARE NERVOUS

The nervous system is the alarm system
of the human body.
In perfect health we hardly realize that
we have network of nerves, but when
health is ebbing, when strength is declin-
ing, the same nervous system gives the
alarm in headaches, tiredness, dreamful
sleep, irritability and unless corrected,
leads straight to breakdown.
To correct nervousness, SCOTS Emul-
sion is exactly what you should take; its
rich nutriment gets into the blood and
rich blood feeds the tiny nerve-cells while
the whole system responds to its refresh
ing touic force. 1t is free from alcohol.

SIX WILL FIRST GO AS
TERRELL'SFIRST QUOTA
THAT NUMBER WILL LEAVE
DAWSON FOR CAMP GORDON
ON SEPTEMBER 9TH.

The total net quota of men to be
sent by the state of Georgia to Camp
Gordon, beginning Sept 5, will be
1887. The state military depart
ment has apportioned to each local
board in the state the allotment of
B per. cent of its total net quota,
and TerrelPs number is placed at 6,
and Sept. 9th fixed as the date for
their departure.
These six men, the first to go, will
be selected by the local board, and
that body is confident there will be
more than that number who will vol
unteer to go.
Details as to traffic arrangements
and the assembling of the men is
left entirely in the hands of the To-
cal board.
Must Go on Day Designated.
The only specific instruction to
the men, outside of those to be given
by the local board, is the advice
that every man take along an extra
pair of shoes, so as to afford the re-
lief of a change from the new reg
ulation marching shoes.
Local boards are warned that it is
imperative that all men be sent to
the camp on the days designated; are
instructed to see that the men have
every comfort possible; that they be
sent by the shortest routes, and by
the first train possible, in order that
all may reach Camp Gordon before
night.
Since meal tickets and railroad
transportation already have been
furnished, practically all that is nee
essary for the local boards to do is
to select the men, call them for mill
tary duty, and see that they are en-
trained and made as comfortable as
possible.
Instructions are given that alter
mates be summoned in case any fail
to report, and details as to the pref
erence for men of military expert
ence and cooks, and instructions that
no negroes be included in the first
call are reiterated.
$500 May Be Sent Home.
Army officials at Washington be-
lieve that fully 80 per cent. of men
passed for service as physically fit
by local examining boards would be
accepted after examination at the
mobilization camps by army sur
geons. This means that approximate
ly 68, 200 men will be sent home from
the mobilization camps. Local boards
will be ordered to call up new men
Immediately to fill such vacancies in
their jurisdiction.
