PARISIAN AID. SELLS
$4,000 HOUSE AND LOT

A little two-inch, single-coIumn
advertisement, involving a cash out
lay of forty cents, appearing in The
Partisan Friday, January 25, was the
irresistible magnet which drew buy
er and seller together and consuma-
ted real estate transaction in which
$4,000 worth of city property chan
ged hands.
The sale was that of the L. E.
Hughes property on Head street TO
s. M. Daniel. The property was lis
ted with Joe Gray & Co., real estate
dealers, and the sale made by that
firm. Mr.. Gray states that this is
only one of several instances where
he credits the sale of property en-
tirely to the value of advertising in
this paper.
Still, there are some moss-backs
who contend that it doesn't pay to
advertise!

HARTSF|ELD APPEALS
in BEHALF Of ROADS
New County Engineer Makes A
Statement In Regard To
Road Funds.

Henry county roads are going to
get in bad repair this year unless the
road hands lend their assistance in
working them instead of paying COM
mutation money for their time, ac-
cording to R. l.. Hartsfield, newly
elected county engineer, who has just
issued the following card to the road
hands of this county:
have investigated the Trustees
books in regard to the Road Funds
for the year 1918 and find that there
is enough outstanding warrants and
unpaid to take all Of the Road Funds
that will be collected on the 1917
taxes and then the Road Fund is In
debt to the amount Of $3,068.0o.
Now, with these existing circum-
stances, there is but one hope for
the new Board and that is for the
road hands not to pay their commuta-
tion money and work out their time
on the roads. You can see we will
not have any money, and if the hands
do not work their time, the roads can
not be worked very much this year.

County Engineer

FREE NIGHT SCHOOL
FOR PARIS PEOPLE

Rev. W. w. Astles, pastor Of the
Presbyterian church, is arranging to
open and conduct free night school
for men of this community who for
any reason are deficient in education.
The school, which is to be non-sec-
tartan, has for its aim the good of
man.
Such schools exist in nearly every
city and are the means afforded those
who are obliged to work in the day
and are deprived of schooling and
the blessings of an education.

GERMAN NSUbSENDS
TRANSPORT SHIP
TO BOTTOM Or SEA
I2,179 United States Troops
Were On Board; 1912
Landed Safely.
MICHIGAN AND
WISCONSIN GUARD
Torpedo Fired At Late Hour
Wednesday Night OFF
Irish Coast. \

The Cunard liner Tuscania, carry
ing 2,179 United States soldiers, was
torpedoed and sunk by a German
submarine off the Irish coast at late
hour Wednesday night. Official re-
ports state that 1912 officers and men
were saved, and it was indicated
Thursday that the list Of dead might
not reach the figure Of 267, as then
reported. The troops were compos-
ed chiefly Of Michigan and Wisconsin
national guardsmen, and the vessel
was under the convoy Of British
warship.
The first dispatches from London
Wednesday night stated that 1,100
troops had been safely landed, and it
was feared that the remainder were
lost. The trops on board the trans
port were as follows:
Headquarters Detachment and
Companies D, E and F of the Twen-
tieth Engineers.
107th Engineer Train
10th Military Police.
107th Supply Train.
Number 100 Aero Squadron.
158th Aero Squadron.
213th Aero Squadron.
Replacement Detachments Nos.
and 2 of the 32nd Division.
Fifty-one Casual Officers.
The Thirty-Second Division is COM
posed of National Guard troops from
Michigan and Wisconsin. The divls-
ion trained at Camp Macarthur, Tex
as.
The 107th Engineers was composed
of the First Battalion of Michigan
Engineers; the 10Th Military Police
was made up from the Fourth and
Sixth Wisconsin Infantry, and the.
10th Supply Train from the Fourth,
Fifth and Sixth Wisconsin Infantry.
Thus, all the soldiers are former
Wisconsin and Michigan National
Guardsmen, except those in the aero
squadron, who probably were recruit
cd from all parts of the country.
The Tuscania was the first ship
carrying United States trops to Eu-
rope to be sunk by German subma-
rines, but the American transport
Antilles was torpedoed and sunk in
the war zone while returning to the
United States from France, and II
soldiers were lost, with 156 other
persons, including several members
Of the naval armed guard.
! American warships conveying trans
ports to France last June, twice
fought off submarine attacks. Since
then, however, there has been no re-
port Of an attack on ship carrying
American troops to Europe.
Recently, the Navy Department
has feared that the Germans would
make a concerted effort to intercept
ITdifSpOItS, CHS ICCdll VI Itlc Suuilld-
rines to their bases being interpreted
as preliminary to such campaign.
The position of the Tuscania when
she was sunk is taken to indicate that
she was bound for England.
Her sinking definitely discloses that
British ships are being used to carry
American troops abroad, supplement
ing American transport tonnage.
This fact has been intimated before,
land probably arises from the Su-
preme War Council to make every
effort To augment General Pershing's
army during the present year.
Navy officials have insisted that
despite the most careful plans and
efforts to safeguard transports there
was always chance that troop ship
