The Administration
Was Upheld In
Georgia Election

ATLANTA, Ca, Sept. 12.--Presi-
dent Wilson and his war admins
tration stands upheld today by the
voters Of Georgia. VIM. ]. Harris,
the presidents choice, mas swept the
state for United States senator to
succeed Thomas w. Hardwick, car
rying 112 out of 152 counties, ac-
cording to complete returns today.
Hardwick, whose loyalty and anti
draft and anti-administration record
was vigorously attacked during the
campaign, ran third, polling a neg
iigible vote. Congressman Howard
barely pushed into second place.
Thomas E. Watson, ex-populist
presidential candidate, who was run
ming for congress in the tenth dis
trict against Congressman Calvinson,
was also defeated However, incom-
plete returns indicate tnat the race
was very close and it may require
the official count to decide it. Wat

the issues of the campaign.

Germans Making
Soap From Cats

Many families in Germany have
been mystifed lately by the disap-
pearance Of pet dogs and cats, ac-
cording to an article in German
paper received here.
For a long time the pets continued
to disappear. It was not until an
investigation was started that it was
discovered the animals had been
killed for soap.
Large "catteries" have been estab-
lished solely for soap production.
Thus is tabby doing her part to win
the war for Germany. A pound of
this soap, by the way, retails for 10
marks, or about $3.50.
