FATAL ACCIDENT AS CAR
GOES THROUGH BRIDGE

Last Sunday afternoon, as three OF
the large trucks from Camp Gordon
laden with soldiers, were crossing a
bridge over the Etowah River IN
Cherokee county, known as Steele's
Bridge, one of the trucks broke thru
the bridge, falling forty feet, andin-
stantly killing three of the soldiers.
Ten others were more or less Sc
riously injured and were rushed here
for attention. All the men were mem
bers of Eastern Regiments, but not
men known in Marietta.
The bodies of the men who were
killed were brought to Blacks Under
taking Parlors in Marietta, where
they were prepared for shipment to
their homes in the North.
The unfortunate accident will at
least call for acloser inspection of
the bridges in this and other sections
where the heavy army trucks are
being operated on the highways, al
though the bridge in this case was on
a byroad. All the Cobb county bridges
are now built of a minimum capacity
of fifteen tons, which is necessary to
convey the present road machinery.

WHEN WE WIN THE WAR!

Let's change the saying eff we win
the war" to when we win the war, "
and never let the subjunctive mood
intrude upon our language on this
question again.
Of course we're going to win the
war! We went into it expecting to
win and the further we get into it
the more we are determined. The
American boy is headed for Berlin
and the Kaiser can't stop him.
But are you doing your part cheer
fully and willingly in the fight? Are
you helping to feed these Americans,
and thousands of hungry allies with
their wives and children, who are
helping to win the war? If not, why
not?
Do you deny yourself of any of the
necessities, or of many of the lux
uries that would help to feed the hun
CRY amoung our allies? Do you live
on your six pounds of flour per
month; or do you seek some avenue
to get around it? Are you willing to
abide by the law, to use but thee
pounds of sugar and not grumble?
Most people do, but / find perhaps
more than any one else those who
seek means of getting more flour and
more sugar than they are entitled to.
Few merchants would violate the reg
ulations; but there are, unfortunate
ly, some customers who try to tempt
them to do so and make it hard for
them to live strictly within the regu-
lations.
Some new regulations are: two
pounds of sugar at one purchase for
town people, and five pounds for
the country people; limited to three
pounds per month per individual. Do
not ask the merchants for more. Two
orders, for each family, of 25 pounds
of sugar for canning for the season.
Don't ask the merchant or me to
grant an extension; we have no au-
thority to do so.
Every merchant in the county is
supposed to keep up with the regula-
tions as they come out, and should
be ready to abide by them within "a
hours after they are promulgated.
Strenuous times require strenuous eff
forts, quick rulings, and changes in
regulations.
Public eating houses are limited to
four meals a week: boiled beef for
noon meals on Mondays and Thurs
days; roast beef for noon meal on
Sunday; and steak for evening meal
on Saturday
Ice must not be served in drinks
at public drinking places.
Merchants having more than 80
days supply of flour may let other
merchants, have overplus at invoice
prices. The flour department has no
titled me that those who have more
than thirty days supply or July 1st
will be considered as boarding flour.
One of these fine mornings some
American boy on the front in France
will throw up his hat and say "Boys
let's go down to Berlin" and they'll
go. When we win the war ! hope my
job will not trouble you with weekly
publicity notes.

An Illustration.

II appears that, in spite of the
extreme precausions adopted by
the government TO elimin tie the
German spy, important secret infor-
NATION is apparently sitting
through on various occasions. The
war department seems to have
pretty good luck in locating the
source of the leak after it is
sprung, after the manner of fell
low locating a fire by seeing the
smoke 1t seems to us that it
would be good and safe policy to
remove lot of things which are
liable to cause these leaks In
fact most of the cases investigated
have been traced to a condition of
affairs that should not have existed.
A point in view is the recent arrest
of German named Ritter, charged
with being implicated in the disap-
pearance of a number of secret doc
uments from a military post in the
state of Washington. The question
naturally arises as to way this raw
Prussian, altho soldier in the u.
S. army, should be trusted with war
secrets. to say nothing of being
made an officer in the army when
there are thousands of true and
loyal Americans just as capable
who could and should occupy these
positions of trust. The news dis
patches say that Ritter came to the
United States in 1911, after serving
several years in the German army,
and enlisted in the u. S. shortly
thereafter. That his father aud
two brothers were now in the Ger
man army and that he is not a
naturalized citizen of the United
States.
Why trust such men as these?
Admitting they may be just as true
and loyal to our cause as an Amer
lean it would be morally wrong
to tempt them to help their native
land.
