The Georgia Women Doing Mems Work

The Liberty Loan Bonds were
pressed night and day and the woro
came from Atlanta that the men
actually turned over the drive altogeth-
er and depended on the prominent wom-
EN- of the city to raise an immense sum
during the last Liberty Loan drive
The drive for Thrift Stamps was
largely made by willing workers of the
feminine gender. The Red Cross work
is largely i'm the hands of patriotic
women. and the war activities of WON
Ell who have volunteered for foreign
service is actually bewiIdering to think
about. =
Truly. truly it is the woman's day,
for colored women are putting on over
alls and doing track work for rail-
roads, and there are women street car
conductors and mOsOr truck drivers.
Really it is hard to find a war activity
or business activity where women are
not doing equal work in this day anu
time-doing it well, in good time and
order.
All this is gratifying to an old lady.
who has been a pioneer in the advocacy
for Nlual rights and privileges for the
women of our country, who bear the
burdens of domestic life along with
these later activities. The men, the
politicians. are appointing women TO
serve on political committees. If our
women can work all day and into the
night to do mems work it stands to rea-

GRANDSON OF GREAT ITALIAN
GENERAL FOUGHT IN MEXICO
(By Associated Press.)

Ell Paso, Texas, Aug. 13.-General
Giuseppe Peppino Garibaldi, grandson
of the great Garibaldi, who Is fight
ing with the Italian armies on the
southern front, is as we'll known In
Ell Paso as he Is in Rome. When
Francisco L. Maderos ragged little
army appeared opposite here in 1911,
Garibaldi, blond boy, wearing his
first mustache, crossed the border and
joined Madero. He fought beside the
Mexican leader at Casas Grandes and
was promoted to be a colonel after
this battle and made bragadier gen.
eral after the battle of Juarez when
he led an unsuccessful charge against
the bullring.
He gained the enmity of Francisco
Villa, then a brigadier general with
Madero, and Villa attempted to assas-
sinate the Italian officer in a local
hotel lobby. When the great war
began he Joined the foreign legion
fighting in France, transferring to
Italy when his own country entered
the war.

traitor, Braxton Beacham, In order
that he public may be appraised of
present conditions, and also be In
formed as to whct methods are still
recommended for cons arvation.
The restrictions have been raised
now rather than September LIST as
was originally contemplated, in order
that the American public may con-
sumo the medium and lighter grades
of cattle and that the heavier be con-
servd for our armed forces and our
Allies.
Various reasons have been found
by the Food Administrator for lifting
the restrictions, among which ere the
extreme drought in the southwest
and the other parts of the country,
and chausing a rush Of light weight
beef to market. All heavy beef is for
the present required for war export,
and Mr.. Bacham urges retail dealers
to handle the light weight cattle, es-
pecially the Florida cattle Wherever
possible. The dealers should en-
deavor to secure cattle which dress
not over ATS pounds, and the public
eating places and the public in gen.
eral should order the light weight
cuts in reference to the heavy meats.
n doing this they will be conserving
the supply of heavier meats, which
the army can use to better advan
tage and which can be exported with
greater facilities.
A great deal of credit for raising
the restrictions on beef is really due
to Federal Food Administrator, Brax-
ton Beacham, who several weeks ago
told the cattle men of Florida, whose
cattle were then becoming market.
able that he would do all he could
to see that there was an increased
market for their cattle. He has
urged Washington continually 70
make allowance and the relief now
given precedes the fixed date antici-
pated by the Food Administration at
Washington, which would have, occa-
stoned a wait until next September
before the restrictions were lifted.
Mr.. Beacham expects that all Flor.
ida people will do their part toward
using native beef, and although the
restrictions give ublic eating places
the liberty of using beef at airy and
all meals, he trusts that the patriotic
effort will not be lost under this new
program, and that both public eat
ing places and private homes will en-
deavor to do their part in strict con
servation of beef.

"BLIMP,-SUBMARINE SCOUTS
(By Associated Press.)

An American Balloon Base in Eng

nickname which the American pilots

ships which are technically termed
rs. st." or submarine scouts.
The gas-bag of the Blimp is about
,5C feet long and 80 feet in diameter.
The lower structure is virtually that
OF scouting airplane of medium pow
er, so that the whole effect is that OF
a cross between airplane and balloon.
The crew is usually one pilot and an
observer, and the speed is about 40
miles an hour.
The cargo is load of bombs which
work like a destroyer's depth charges,
Exploding by water, pressure at q

servation instruments.
Hundreds of Blimps are constantly
on duty around the coasts Of France
and England. American pilots and
observers are just beginning to take
up this work. 1t is the creates.
u-boat destroyer in existence, il the
men who work the Blimps are to be
believed. One enthusiastic American
pilot who had been dropping bombs
up and down the Irish sea for a
month, remarked to the Associated
Fress correspondent, "The Blimp is
not only one of the ways Of DESTROY,
ing U-boats; it is the way"
! The advantage that the Blimp has
over the seaplane is that it can stand
stlll In the air. If U-boat dives
down and lies out of sight on the bot
tom, the Blimp sits over it until it
decides to move on or come to the
surface. If the submarine does not
move, the Blimp is just as well cor
tent, for in the meantime the wireless
has been at work, and trawlers are
coming up in the course Of an hour
or two with the necessary equipment
to smoke Mister Submarine out of his
hole.
II the submarine rises before naval
help arrives, the Blimp tackles It
alone with bombs. If the submarine
tries to move away along the bottom
OF the sea, the Blimp follows its shad,
ow until It comes, sooner or later to

there is little chance Of escape for a
U-boat once it has been sighted by
one Of there handy little dirigibles.
The sighting or spotting Of the
U-boats is the great difficulty, for the
seas around England are large places
and the range Of the individual Blimp
is comparatively small.
A larger type Of Blimp is now be-
ing used, known technically as the G..

er crew and greater supply Of fue!

An Ancient Industry Has Been Re
viVed; Experts Are Now Making
Plates Of All Shapes and Sizes to
Fit the Body

washington, Aug. 13.-Oficlal an
nouncement was made by the war de-
partment tonight that armor for use
by American soldiers in France was
being modelled by experts in the Met
ropolitan Museum of Art in New
YORK city, says the New York Times.
The armor being modelled there in
cludes helmets, shields, and breast
plates. The work is being done for
the ordinance department, which has
been seeking to give the American
soldier the best armored protection liz
the world.
The Official announcement issued by
the war department revealed this in
teresting story of what is being done:
Comprising all that was best in
the types of armor used in the days of
the ancients, this armor, in some in.
stances, is being wrought into the
shape on ancient anvils and by ham
mers that were actually used ccntur-
les ago.
I'm direct charge of the workshop
is French artisan whose skill mas
been known to collectors the world
over and whose forebears, for genera
lions back, have kept alive the dying
trade of the armorer.
This war in Europe, which has
brought back into use many discard
ed weapons and practices of medieval
warfare has found use for armor as
well. This is shown in the adoption
OF steel helmets by all the warning
powers; in the use of heavy breast
plates for attack by the English; in
the armored waist coats used by the
Italians, and in trench shields, which
all the armies are using.
Ancient Ideas Revived
Because of this it has become de !.
sirable to review the entire study of
ancient armor, to which for centuries
some OF the greatest artists and scien-
lists gave their best efforts. To such
masters of the science of armor dc
sign as Leonardo, Giullo Romano.
Callini, Holbbein, Duerer, Michael
Angelo, and others are ordinance ex-
rerts OF today turning for guidance
and inspiration. In fact, it can be
stated that so completely were ar.
mored defenses studied in the past
that today there is scarcely techni-
cal feature brought forward that was
not worked out in elaborate detail by
the old-time armor makers.
Fortunately for the ordinance de-
partment one of the greatest collec-
lions of ancient armor in the world
accessible to study by the American
armor designers is in the Metropolitan
Museum of Art in New York city.
This collection, ranking probably sew,
enth in the world, now includes the
famous Riggs collection, which rep
resents the life work Of a wealthy
student Of the subject and includes
some of the richest and rarest pieces
that have been in the market since
1850.
