BLANKS FOR NEXT
REGISTRATION HERE
ALL YOUNG MEN BECOMING FL
SINCE JUNE 5TH LAST MUST
REGISTER FOR ARMY.

The Terrell county exemption
board is now making preparations for
another registration of those subject
to service in the army.
The date has been fixed by an act
OF congress and proclamation of the
president for June 5th, the anniver-
sary of the registration in 1917.
when all young men, both white and
black, who have reached 81 years of
age since that date will be required
to register. The only exceptions will
be persons now in the military or
naval service. Failure to register by
any person required to do so is a
misdemeanor punishable by imprison-
ment for one year, and may result in
the loss of valuable rights and priv
ileges and immediate induction into
military service.
The board announces that the reg
istration for the entire county will be
at the court house in Dawson, and
not in the various militia districts,
as was done before.
1t is estimated that there are be-
tween $50 and ITS young men in the
county who will be subject to regis
tration.

COUNCIL HAS CLOSED
NEGRO POOL ROOM
ACTION TAKEN ON COMPLAINT
THAT THE PLACE WAS A
GREAT NUISANCE.

The negro pool room, which was
located on north Jefferson street,
was closed Friday by order of the
city council.
The action came after a hearing
before the mayor and the council
manic board on complaint made by
Sheriff Turner, who lives a block
away, that it was a nuisance, disturb
ing the rest of his family until mid
night or after. Other charges of a
general nature were that it was re.
sort that encouraged idleness, and
was frequented by loiterers who
should be engaged in useful occupa-
tions.
Lawyers represented both the city
and the owner of the pool room, and
evidence was introduced by both
sides.
The proprietor of the pool room
had paid the city license of $3.50
for the year, and pro rata part of
the amount will be refunded.

SLOUGH HAT OUT OF FAVOR
Picturesque Headoear No Longer
Worn by American Soldiers on
the Fighting Fronts.

The SLOUGH hat has for many years
been regarded In Europe as distinctive

years 1t has been no more commonly
worn In the United States than In the
British isles, and over considerable
part of the continent. Nevertheless,
the typical American Is almost lnvarl.
ably pictured In soft hat, and the soft
felts worn by the soldiers OF the
American eXpedltionary forces to
France helped to sustain the tradition.
In the Civil war the soldiers OF the
North wore caps. Soft felts were
chosen for soldiers operating against
the Indians on the plains because they
were supposed to afford greater protec.
ton than caps from the glare. They be-
came regulation head covering for
the army In the Spanlsh-American war,
and, because they matched the khaki
uniform, they have been In use ever
since. Now, however. General Per-
shing is said to have decided that these
hats must be discarded in favor Of
brlmless and peakless caps, and the
reason for the proposed change is
characteristic OF the period that has
introduced into war so many lnnova-
lions. The rim Of the soft felt hat
throws shadow on the periscopo
used In the trenches 80 as to interfere
with sighting by the wearer; also,
when worn by tall men, tho crown may
be seen above the parapets by the en-
my; also, gas mask can be adjusted
much more quickly over brimless and
pealless cap.

WAR HELPED ZINC INDUSTRY
Remarkable Impetus Given to tho
Mining and Refining Of the
Mineral In Japan.

The high-water mark In the devel-

Japan has been reached since the out
break of the present war. Zinc was
first mined In commercial way In
1897, but even as late at 1911 the out
put was still only about 10000 tons.
The refining Of the ores was not start
ed on large scale until 1914. The
rising quotations Of the metal In all
markets gave the industry great Inn
petus In Japan, 80 that In 1915 2l,O0O
tons Of refined goods and In 1910 49,
600 tons were produced. II Is estl-
mated that the production In 1917 to-
tailed some $4,000 tons. 1t Is said
that the reAnerles can produce as
high as 100000 tons year, but ms
this takes some 250000 tons Of zinc

obtain 100000 tons Of ore In foreign
markets, as only 10000 tons are mined
In Japan. In the past Japan has bought
ore from China, Australia and Russia.

JUST SIMPLE COMMON SENSE

One way to get an audience nova

talk Psychology" A Harvard pro-
fessor recently amazed convention
Of clothing manufacturers and denl-
ers by delivering an address upon this
topic, In which he laid down several
principles about the effect of clothing
upon the wearer, and the surprise OF
his hearers was due to the discovery
that what the learned man had dlgni-
fed by long word was nothing more
than what more commonly passes for
common sense. A good many Of the
things he said We're already known to
them, II they Ind stopped to think.
When he placed them under the head
of psychology they sat up and took
notice, says the OregonlHn.
He said, for example, that the we'll
dressed man is 10 per cent more eff
Client than the poorly dressed man. He
said that clothes that do not ut pre-
vent the wearer from doing his best.
Cleanliness promotes self-respect. Self
respect Is contagious, like confidence.
The man who does not think well OF
himself Is unlikely to win the good
opinion Of others. Comfortable cloth
Ing, made OF good material, well brush
ed, was the foundation Of the super
structure, he said. Tie was talking to
hard hcnded business men, and they
believed him, because their own expe-
rlence showed his statements to be
true.
