STRETCHING OUT THE SUGAR.


The U. s. consumption Of refined
sugar during the frst Ave months Of
1918 was 1.500,0 900 tons. That supply,
for various reasons, has not been re-
plenished to the extent that was hoped
the sugar yield was not as good as
hoped while the U-boat toll was rather
worse. Hence there will be until the
early winter and the new crop arrives
distinct, but not dlsAstrotft, shortage
of sugar.
II any great proportion of the popu
lation insist on clingink to the former
sugar ration, the supply on hand viii

HIS FIRST SIGHT OF BANDS
Crowd Proved to Be Very Human
When Cripple Long Blind Was
Wheeled Up.

ALI his life he had been lame; nea.-
ly all his life he had been blind. But
always he could hear, and the thing
he liked best to hear was martial
music by the band. He heard 1t sell
dom. The Home for Incurables was
on side street. out of the way OF
bands. The operation that restored
his sight was followed shortly by a
big parade.
AT last" said he, II shall see the
fellows that play the band"
The line Of march was twenty
blocks away, but to a strong-armed
orderly who was used to wheeling q
reclining chair twenty blocks was
nothing. The policeman on the edge
OF the crow was far more formidable
You can't take that boy in there"
he said. They'd crush the life out
out of him. We can't do anything
with crowd like this on parade days
They're a mob"
But they're very human" said the
orderly. Then he told the story of
the newly opened eyes.
"Oh, WELL" said the policeman.
He stepped back. Others also step
ped back. policemen and members OF
the mob" Right up the curb they
went, the boy and the orderly. A few
who had held their places since sun
up grumbled little, but the eager
look Of the boy who had never seen a
uniform conquered and they made
way. Then the bands came, dozens
Of them, and every bandsman seemed
to play his best for the boy in the
chair. 1t was splendid; so splendid
that the boy and the orderly and the
mob laughed and cried together
Truly, the mob was very human.

CIVIC LEAGUE.

On Tuesday afternoon at the
meeting of the Civic League, Mrs.
Sawyer, the Home Demonstration
Agent, addressed the League on va
riety of subjects in most interest
ing manner. Mrs. Sawyer made a
very practical demonstration, by
serving those present apples, from
a fireless cooker, and some of her
substitute bread.
She spoke of the need of demon
stration room and womans rest room,
and of the opportunity presented for
an increased food production from
the vacant lots about town, and of
the forming of girls club, and en-
listing the boy scouts for some of
this work.
Much interest was evinced in these
matters, and committees were ap-
pointed to cooperate with the other
clubs of the city, looking to the es-
tablishment of the needed things.

ROMANTIC WEDDING
ON LAST WEDNESDAY

A quiet but romantic wedding took
place in Marietta on Wednesday af-
ternoon at A o'clock.
Mr.. George M. SWEET, one of the
soldiers now at the Range Camp, and
Miss Mary Holland, from New Hamp-
shire, went to the home of DR. White
of the Baptist church, and were mar
ried. Mrs. White was the only wit
ness.
The bride had come all the way
from her far off northern home, from
whence Mr.. SWEET had also come in
to the service of his country.
1t is our sincere wish that all hap
piness may be theirs, and that when
the war ends in victory for our cause,
this young husband may return safe
ly with the honors of hero, to his
mountain state home and wife.

LOST HIS PURSE.

On last Friday, about noon, Mr..
Jesse w. Martin, an aged veteran who
lives on Route d, drew his annual
pension money, and after leaving the
smaller portion of it in the bank,
went out into the park and sat on
a bench, while he placed fifty five
dollars in bills in small leather
purse, which contained also few
small coins.
This purse he thought he placed in
his pocket, but has not seen it since,
although he missed it within short
time when he had gone only little
way from the park. He had no writ
ing or papers in the purse to indi-
cate the owner and his sole chance
of it's recovery is that some honest
person shall have picked it up and
is waiting to establish the rightful
owner.
The blow falls heavily on the old
man, as he can i'll afford to lose the
money. We hope that some honest
person is the finder.

"KINLDY KWIT CUSSIN'
IS NEW ARMY SLOGAN

Atlanta. Ga, Feb. Kindly
Kwit Kussin". This is the slogan
spelled in a whimsical fashion, which
the Army and Navy are adopting in
campaign to minamize profanity
among our soldiers and sailors.
"To swear like trooper" OF
"sailor" heretofore has been featured
as the phrase in highest praise OF the
proficient "profanatic but no long
er. The likening is obsolete, for ac-
cording to Religious Work Director
w. R. Dobyns of Camp Gordon.
LESS cussing is heard in the train
ing camps today than on our city
streets. The clean lives the men are
leading are productive of clean
speech"
The Army and Navy Y. M. G. A.
is doing its share to keep the thoughts
of the soldiers clean with its program
of physical and social activities, en-
tertainments, educational classes and
religious services Many printed
phrases displayed conspicuously in
the Red Triange huts serve as con-
slant reminders to the men of the
Objectionable character of profanity.
One of these read:
"If you curse at home, curse here.
We want you to feel at home"
They get good results; as the ad-
vertising man says; Recently a sol
der at one of the writing benches
in hut spewed forth mouthful of
oaths which was overheard by uni
formed secretary:
"Just put 'em in letter to your
mother sometimew suggested the
uniformed secretary. A few days
later the enlisted man laid neatly
written letter before the secretary
with the statement:
That's to my mother-the first
letter I'e written her in seven years.
The hint you gave me the other day
made me realize my duty towards
her---and I've decided to cut out the
cussin', too"
