Conserving Children

Young boys and girls killed themselves becauserhey had

Doubtless. many of these unhappy children were un,

ATHENS, Ga, April Sin power
full address delivered here Saturday on
the occasion Of patriotic rally in cele-
bration of the opening of the third
Liberty Loan, Judge Andrew ]. Cobb
severely denounced Senator Thomas w.
Hardwick for obstructing President Will
son on the prosecution of the war, and
called on every judge on every bench
in Georgia, and on every preacher in
every pulpit, to raise his voice in con-
demnation of disloyalty
Judge Cobb said in ordinary times
he would refrain from utterances of
political nature because of his judicial
office, but these are not ordinary times
and the crisis which the nation faces
TODAY is not an ordinary crisis, and
hence he considered it his duty to voice
the demand of the people for every
public servant to give the government
loyal support
Judge Cobb explained that he bears
no an!mus of any kind against Senator
Hardwick but on the contrary would be
the last to criticize him if his conduct
in the senate could be overlooked. Sena-
tor Hardwick was a member of a law
class which ne taught, ana mas beeH

Cut Wood Now. and Burn Wood Next
Winter.

Look the situation squarely IN the
face-these are war times and the
country is short of coal-more than
fifty million tons short. All that could
be mined last year was used In manu-
featuring ammunitions, war supplies,
and in firing battleShips and trans
ports. The country ran short OF coal;
The railroads could not possibly haul
as much as was needed. There IS
every reason to believe that the same
condition will prevail next winter,
Part of the coal shortage must be
made up by the use of wood as fuel.
There is plenty of wood in some coun--
ties in West Virginia, cord upon cord
uncut, ready to be chopped. 1t is
practical for farmers and people IN
Villages to use this wood. Munition
plants cannot burn wood, warships
cannot burn wood, not people in the
cities cannot burn it because of the
lack of transportation facilities. Wood
is too bulky to ship and besides there
are not cars enough to carry the coal.
So those who live in rural communities
where there is wood available should
use it for fuel. Huge quantities OF
coal can be saved if everyone who can
use wood will do SO.
| Cut wood now or as soon as possible.
Arrange your heating system to burn
| it. Make it your business to see that
others in your community who can
burn wood arrange to use it next
winter. The farmer who drives ar
empty wagon to town and drives back
with load of coal is wasting energy
of man and team, wasting chance tc
avoid this effort by the use of wood.
Cut woodl Saw wood! Burn wood
Lay up wood for next winter!

Ten More Men viii Go From Jefferson
County April 6.

jefferson County is called upon to
furnish ten men in the April call of
the second draft. With the mobili-
cation order, General Crowder sent a
notice to the County Exemption Board
calling attention to the ruling that
farm workers should not be called I'M
til after harvest.
Calling men at this time was made
necessary by the decision of President
Wilson to respond without delay to
the need of France and Great Bri-
| tam for re-enforcements in the great
battle in Picardy. Vacancies in Ma
tional Army divisions resulting from
the withdrawal of men to complete
| National Guard and regular army
units and for the formation of special
technical units asked for by General
Pershing will be made good by the
April draft.
Our men will entrain some time in
the fve-day period between April &c
and 80 inclusive. Notices to mobilize
will be sent to the following, the two
last named in the list of twelve being
alternates who will have to go only if
any of the others for any cause fail
to answer the call:
John Hughson Barnes, Middleway
William Edward Hawk, Bolivar; AL
len Leon Ridgeway, Harpers Ferry;
William NELL Anderson, Ransom; Earl
Wheaton, Petersburg, w. Va; Law
renee Wesley Piper, Harpers Ferry;
VIM. Jacquelin Getzendanner, Charles
Town; James Clinton Shanholtzer
Cold Stream, W. Va; Harry w. Biller
Summit Point; Wade H. Jackson
Charles Town; Perry Albert Ander-
son, Ransom, and Carroll Clay Rock
enbaugh, Bolivar.
The men in this quota will go to
Camp Meade, near Baltimore, for
training. They will fill vacancies in
units there, that have been depleted
by the transportation of men to
Ersnoe
