Just what Red Cross eanteen ts, how it is outfftted. and the hundred problems the American women have to meet in feeding the French, Eng lish and American soldiers is well shown in this letter from an Aplerfean Red Cross worker:
 We have really wonderful place. It was given to us so rough and pisin and ugly. had a coat of plaster put on the walls, painted a bright blus wainscOt three feet higf1 with stem cil of flowers of red, white snd bllps above, white walls and eeEEfng. doors and windows outlined with light green and stencils of bright eoIOTs between the windows of trunpets. and over the i've doors delicious Htrte paintings by Miss Kirkpatrick and Miss Beckett of soldiers and ca%rteesers in the most clever and attractive way.

 At the end of the room we have two girls, one American and one Bnenchr holding French aRd American fings.. We have red and white oilcioth on tbs tables, red glass carafes and red tuu- key window curtains, and always flow CTS on the counters It is the caEest, brightest little room you ever SAW.

been TAKEN OFF.

Passengers boarding the night Sea-
board train for Savannah expecting to
sleep comfortably on sleepers, have
been sadly disappointed during the
last thirty days.
1t seems that the Pullman service
has been discontinued for about a
month, although there has been no
public notice to that effect given here
For that matter, not even the local
officials of the Seaboard were aware
CT the fact
Today when complaint was made to
them they began an inquiry, and
found that there was no longer any
night Pullman service between Amer
icus and Savannah.
1t has been the custom to sell tick
cts to Saavnnah, and direct the pas
sengers to pay for the Pullman after
entering the train. Consequently,
many passengers went aboard conf

WILL D. UPSHAW
MAKES COMPLAINT
ABOUT HIS NAME
SAYS HE DOES NOT LIKE TO BE
CALLED "WILLIE" AND THINKS
TIMES-RECORDER'S SENATORIAL
POLL INACCURATE.

The following letter has been re-
ceived by the editor of The Times
Recorder from William D. Upshaw, of
Atlanta, the editor of "The Golden
Age" who is also a candidate for the
United States Senate:
On Train Between Lawreneeburg,
Tenn, and Atlanta, Ga, January
5, 1918.
MIR Franc Mangum
Editor, The Times~Recorder,
Americus, Ga. -
My Dear Franc:
When you took charge of The Times
Recorder ] wrote you lin my thoughts
and heart hearty letter of congratu-
lation | wish 1 had not let my busy,
driving life keep me from sending it.
And l also congratulated myself 1
said The former editors did not give
me a square deal-Franc Mangum
Will
Then l read your truly remarkable
editorial on Thomas E. Watson, and
wrote you another silent letter of con-
graduation. l wish l had stopped my
drive long enough to say to you what
/ really thought.
But, 10! in your senatorial round
up, which credited me along with
Cooper with not carrying "a precinct"
you didn't even seem much inclined to
give me a dignified editorial square
deal. | suppose you simply failed to
hear from counties where l have a
strong following. One of them is your
old county, Emanuel. / believe from
actual observation, l would carry the
rural districts there at least two to
one over Harris. The same with Wilkes
and even Chatham. | am judging sim
Ply by what leaders told me when
there.
But that is not what | started out
to say while this train jogs along.
You referred to Mr.. Harris as Will
liam J. Harris. Why didn't you call
him Willie Harris as you called me
Willie Upshaw? Why not call me
". D, Upshaw or William d. Upshaw
or Will D. Upshaw as you call Harris
your man, W. J. or William J.? Why
try to belittle me?
was one time an unknown boy on
the bed in Cobb county. l fought my
way up from seven years on that bed
to where am actually called all over
the continent for platform work. l
recently returned from the Liberty
Loan campaign in New York where
spoke on the same platform with the
most famous men of England and
America. | have been invited to re-
turn for the Third Loan campaign.
My critics did not give that reputation
You are too bright man to join the
Macon Telegraph in the cheap prac-
tice of ridiculing man whose service
record they dare not attack
l wish you mighty well. Fraternally,
WILLIAM d. UPSHAW.
editorial Note: Mr. Upshaw is
entirely too sensitive to be in politics
He has sufficient intelligence TO know
that he has not the remotest chance
os going to the United States Senate.
His place is the platform work, where,
as he says, he is successful and in de-
mand. AS for the senatorial poll-thc
returns from Georgia newspapers show
that w. ]. Harris is, in the opinion OF
those newspapers, the strongest sena-
torial candidate in about 110 counties
Not single newspaper gave Mr.. Up
shaw credit for enough strength to
even one county. Mr. Upshaw should
read as he runs.
