TWO MORE DAYS.

One German alien enemy has been
registered by Chief of Police Tom
Mclean since the opening of the regis
tration last Monday for that purpose
The name of this registrant is with
held by order from the department of
justice. When the registration began
the names of the persons registered
were published in some cities, caus
ing unintentional embarrassment to
them. 1t is not the intention of the
government to work any undue hard
ship on any alien enemy residing in
the United States, SO in the future
their names will be withheld from
publication. 1t is not probable that
any other alien enemies will be regis
tered in this county, although the
time for such registration has been

NEVERTHELESS, THE WHEAT is

TIANS CONSERVING FOOD.

MY brother eats flour bread only
on Sunday mornings, nowadays" said
q well known rural merchant to Coun-
ty Food Administrator John P. Ora
ham in a conversation about the OBJ
servance of the food regulations. But
told him it was because he was too
stingy and not because of his patriot
ism," said the merchant with laugh.
This merchant and practically all
others with whom the administrator
has talked give the information that
the people are observing the regula-
tions properly and that there is a
general desire on the part of consum-
ers to show their patriotism by saw
ing wheat and meat in order to help
furnish more food-stuffs to the Amer
lean and allied armies.

FOOD ADMINISTRATIONS VIEW
OF FAIR PROFITS ON FLOUR

The United States Food Admins
tration issues the following:
1t is the opinion of the United
States Food Administration that the
gross maximum profit for wholesalers
in flour should not exceed from SO to
rs cents per barrel. The profit to re-
tail dealers in original mill packages
should not exceed from so cents to
$1.2O per barrel, depending upon the
character of service performed. Where
retailers sell in amounts less than
the original mill packages, the gross
profit should not exceed 1 cent a
pound.
Any profits in excess of these or in
excess of those obtained in prewar
times will be considered cause for in
vestigation. Substitutes for wheat
flour should not be sold at more than
a reasonable advance over actual pur.
chase price of the particular goods
sold, without regard to market or re-
placement value at the time of such
sale.

Franks, charged with abduction, late
Saturday evening returned verdict
of guilty, which carries with it SEN
tence in the state prison of from ten
to twenty-one years. They were
charged with abducting the daughter
of w. T. Green, a prominent citizen
of the Fall River community, for i'm
moral purposes. The girl was carried
to Pulaski in Giles county, where she
was kept for two or three days be-
fore she was allowed to return home.
Besides The abduction charge in this
county they must face charge of
rape in Giles county, which is set for
trial at an immediate date.

but in this they failed, and the state
introduced numbers of prominent cit
liens of that section showing that the
girl was of good character.
Upon their conviction a motion for
a new trial was made, and the motion
will be argued here before Judge
Bruce Turner on February 10.
The defendants were represented
by W. H. Lindsey and Hugh Nc
Grory and the state by Attorney-Gen
eral W. S. Fleming, Jr. and Judge

DEATH FOR LIBERTY GLORIOUS
Better Than Life of SeIf-condemna-
ton, a Lying Lip and Saddened
Heart-Points to Dangers Of Hu-
manity After the War.

"Since the publication about three
months ago of German generals
plan for the conquest of the United
States, which was filed in 1912 by the
secret service in the American depart
ment of state, we have realized that
the brave men who battle at the
Marine, the Somme and on the slippery
decks of the ships in the North Sea
were fighting for us and for the per
petuation of our liberty" said Bishop
Thomas F. Gailor of the Episcopal
church Sunday morning in his ser.
mon at st. Peters church on Chris.
tianity and democracy.
The bishop spoke of the position of
the church in this world crisis, say
ing that 1t must be socialized, that 1t
must look to the uplift of each indi-
vidual and that it must stand for the
democracy that Jesus Christ inaugu-
ated upon the earth. He said that
before the coming of Christ there was
no democracy, human beings were but
eggs in great machine, each person
being the vassal of some one higher
up. Christ preached democracy by
unfolding the individual and his rela-
tionship to God 1t is this democracy
that the Christ must sustain and it
can be done only through the subjuga-
ton of the nation that had adopted
the policy that supermen were created
to rule. He said that the superman
doctrine of German philosophers was
lie.
While condeming the doctrine of
supermen and of monarchs, the
Bishop said that he had as soon be
under the rule of king or car as
of radical, ignorant, tyrannical ma
jority, and he pointed out the posi-
bility of such rule as the latter after
the war, il there is not a strong Christ
ian influence to sustain the rights of
individuals. The struggle of the fu-
ture is to be between capital and
labor. He said that in America we
have bowed too much to bigness, big
corporations, big cities, big interests,
big money. and had submerged the in
dividual.m This condition must be
remedied.
Bishop Gailor set-up the winning of
this war as the supreme task of
Christianity. He said that out of a
victory will come the fruition of the
work of the centuries of Christianity
but that if it is lost the world will be
plunged back into the darkness of op-
preston and the masses will again be
subjugated to kings.
In speaking of how the war is to
be won he said that death is not the
worst thing that can come to a man.
Death in the battle for liberty is glor-
ious and more to be desired than the
self-consciousness of having failed to
do ones duty, of lying lip and sad
dened heart, such as that to be suf-
fered by the man who lives but shirk-
ed his part in the war.
Bishop Gailor was heard by large
congregation, number of members
of other churches being present. He
returned to Nashville Sunday after
noon and preached that night at
Christ church.
