KANTOR MOVES
INTO NEW STORE
The Adeline on Howard Now Open to
Public-Handsome Marble Front
Store Building.

Mr.. ]. Kantor has moved his STOCK
of goods from his store on Market
Street to his handsome new bulldlng'
The Adeline, on Howard, and is busy
getting it in shape and ready to offer
to the public. The new building is the
handsomest of its kind in Greenwood
and probably in the state of Mlssis-
sippi. It is equipped with the latest
devices for displaying goods and ex-
pense was not spared in making the
Adeline the most attractive place in
the city. 1t is one Of the show stores
and attracts most favorable comment
from all who see.it.
The front is of white marble and the
remainder Of pressed brick. Big show
windows ornament the front on the
ground floor and the second floor is
given over to offices all Of which are
most modernly equipped. g
Mr.. Kantor has enjoyed a big bust
ness since being in Greenwood and is
very substantial citizen. He has serv.
ed on the City Board Of Aldermen and
is now member Of the City School
Board. He said when he built the new
Adeline, that nothing was too good for
Greenwood.

CAMP IS READY
FOR BATTERY {
Kitchen at School Building Almost
Completed and Boys Will Encamp
Sunday Morning.

All is being put in readiness at the
High School for the boys of Battery e
to go into camp there Sunday. The
kitchen, the most important thing of
all, is being rushed to completion and
will very probably be ready by tomor-
row morning.
The company fund for the Battery
is growing. Several liberal contribu-
tions came in yesterday and others
today. Plates, spoons and cups, all
of tin except the spoons which should
be heavier, will be needed by the boys
and anyone having picnic spoons or
dishes can contribute them if they de-
sire. The money will be spent for such
things as that and otherwise where
the committee see fit.
The boys while encamped at the
school building will have access to the
shower baths and swimming pool and
will probably be better fixed up in
that manner than they will be at Jack
son or Alexandria. Their sleeping
quarters at the school building will be
comfortably fixed up.
Band Master Worley has three OF
the bows from the, Battery studying
the bugle and two Of them will be
made buglers for the Battery. They
can be heard practicing almost any
time of the day.

UNCLE SANS
FIGHTING SHIPS
In British Waters Are Watched Ad.
mi-ngly Every Night by Village
and City Folk.
Ia ssnciatod Press(

Base American Flotillas In British
Waters atop a steep activity that
skirts the barbor of this port much
like the Palisades de the Hudson Rlv-
er. hundreds of villagers and folk from
a nearby city gather each night to
watch the American destroyers-the
trim little fighting ships Uncle Sam
has sent across the Atlantic to COM
bat the submarine. On peaceful,
beautiful, moonlight night these peo-
ple have a picture of silent activity
that is hard to beat.
From their high perch the people
can see for several miles vast ex-
panse of hills and water that make
wonderful setting for the tlghtlng
craft at their feet. The British and
American sailors on shore leaves bring
their girls up there and men and wom-
en- trudge baby carriages from miles
around to watch the silent ships. 1t
has come to be one Of the most popu-
lar walks in the country ;even the
railroads run weekend excursions to
the spot bringing hundreds Of holiday
clad boys and girls from great dis
tances to see the Americans.
Up to a certain hour the ships are
outlined in the darkness by many
lights. But all the time there is a
scene of activity on board and in the
water. The bluejackets with their lit
|tle white caps seem to be always NOV
ing about, motor dories dart here and
there among the ships, orders are
called out and occasionally is heard
the shrill warning of the horn on the
dories. Always the dories are running
from ships to short, loaded with men
going on leaves or returning to ship
Wireless and searchlights which al
night replace the flag signals anc
semaphones are exchanging messages
and lights on board each ship fiicke'
up and out in Morse code.
In the midst Of all this is heard thf
strains of string music-guitars, ban
los and violins-which seem to of
favorites with the American boys
From the deck Of the supply or moth
er ship, which boasts a string orches
ira Of fifteen pieces, Hawaiian melo
dies enchant the music on shore. From
other ships music comes from tn
monographs, with which every shll
in the flotillas is supplied. On week
ends many of the townspeople Grove
into small boats and swarm about tn
destroyers in their anxiety to ge' q
close as possible to the music
