REGISTRATION BOARD MOVED
FOR JUGGLING NUMBERS

ATLANTA, Ga, June 21.-The local
boards for Dade county (Ga.) has been
removed from office by President Will
son for Juggling order numbers. 1t is
charged that they called men of lower
order numbers and sent them into
service ahead of others who should
have been called first, and that they
deliberately skipped the order num-
bers of four men, two of whom were
related to a member of the board. Com
pIaints were made to Major Joel B.
Mallet officer in charge of the selec-
tive service law in Georgia, and to
the department of justice. Mayor NAL
let made an investigation and depart
ment of Justice agents made an inves-
tigation. Both reports conceded. After
examining the reports Provost Mar
shall Crowder, in Washington, recon-
mended to President Wilson that the
Dade county board be summary re-
moved and a new board appointed,
which the President did. This is the
fourth local board in Georgia to be re-
moved. The Fulton county local board
was removed for discriminating
against negroes in favor of white men.
The Taliaferro county board was re-
moved for the same cause. The Jasper
county board was removed for general
inefficiency, carelessness and neglect
of duty. Major Mallet, in statement
announcing the removal of the Dade
county board, declares the War De
partment will insist upon strict i'm
partially and justice in the admins
tration of the selective service law.

RERUc THE NURSING.

Cleveland has been asked by the
Council of National Defense ito make
an experiment in community nursing,
with the idea of reducing the amount
of unnecessary nursing care now be-
ing given in families employing pri-
vate nurses and at the same time pro-
viding for all nursing care really
needed in the community" Results Of
the experiment will be used to plan
such work in other cities.
Like the medical coddling" which
citizens were asked to avoid in order
that physicians might be spared for
the, front the unnecessary nursing may
be greatly reduced without any real
danger. There are people who now call
trained nurses for all sorts of trifing
ailments for which they are not really
needed.
The real answer to the unnecessary
nursing is not the allowing of unskill-
ed persons to do nursing for which
professional training is required, but
for the people to keep themselves
well.
Nine-tenths of the colds and sore
Threats which develop into serious j.
nesses could be avoided or checked
at the onset if people used a little
sense in taking care Of themselves.
Being i'll at all is a luxury which we
cannot afford in wartime. es&NEyH
Sensible food, lots of fresh air and
sunshine, exercise, good cheer-these
are the real substitutes for the nurse
who has gone to war-Exchange.

HARRIS FINDS STRENGTH
GROWING OVER GEORGIA

ATLANTA, Ga, June 20.-Spending
several days here and checking up re-
ports from all sections of the state,
William ]. Harris tla3,a.os ne is more
confident than ever Of his election to
the United States Senate.
One of the most gratifying and signi-
ficant developments of the past days
for Mr.. Harris and his friends, was
the interview recently given out by
Judge Andrew Cobb, of Athens, de-
claring that Mr. Harris is evidently
the choice of very large majority of
the people, who feel perfectly safe in
supporting the Presidents known
choice for successor to Senator Hard
wick. Judge Cobb further declared
that in his opinion Senator Hardwick
would not carry a single county.
Friends of William Schley Howard
are manifesting considerable concern
withregard to his campaign. They
have not been able to perfect organiza-
ton, having neither a state campaign
manager nor any considerable num-
Der of Howard clubs. The campaign
appears to be running in haphazard
kind of way which is not at all salts
factory to Mr.. Towards friends.

A live bunch of Marion

A live bunch of Marion county
boosters were here Saturday en- route
home from the state educational
meeting at Daytona and stopped q
few minutes to visit the Herald edi-
tor. They were Prof. ]. q. Crimson,
superintendent of public instruction
of Marion county. his daughter, Miss
Myrtle Brinson, Mrs Caroline Moor
head, home demonstration agent for
Marion county; A. J. Stephens, mem
Der of the Marion county board of
public instruction, and L. A. Hender-
son, instructor of science in the Ocala

A rather optimistic dispatch else
where conveys the idea that Florida
producers this year, in consequence
of government control of the rail-
roads, will have much better chance
Of having their produce hauled to
market. So far as staple crops are
concerned, we think it is right We
are rather dubious about watermel-
ons, cantaloupes, truck and any
thing else that IS not an absolute
necessity. We would advise our peo-
pie to plant for food and raiment. It's
our opinion that the South's two great
staples, corn and cotton. with the by
products OF the former, namely, cat
tie and hogs, viii be more in demand
this year chan ever. Just about the
time truck is ready to move, tbs
troops in the training camps will also
be ready and ii takes no prophet to
decide which will have the right of
way. Our farmers should remem-
Der, however, that we can use right
smart of truck ourselves, and the
more we eat Of our own produce, the
less we will have to call on other sec
tions for.

years; then they removed to Plant

suits of the severe cold spell of the

Congressman Clark is outspoken in
his opposition to women suffrage He
comes squarely out and says what a
lot of other public men think but are
afraid to say. AS he said in his
speech in Ocala sixteen months ago,
he thinks wpman's sphere is yet the
home. However, in the amendment ne
is now trying to bring before Con-
gress, and which is set forth in a dis
patch elsewhere, he is undoubtedly
trying to secure a square deal for
suffragettes. For instance, the Flor
ida legislature has twice in succession
refused the opponents of equal suf-
frage an opportunity to have their
claim submitted to the voters of the
state. We don't know whether Flor
ida would vote for equal suffrage or
not we rather think it wouldn't But
we are of the opinion that the ques-
ton should be submitted to the pop
ular vote, and as Mr.. Clark says, we
don't believe it win have as fair a
show with the legislature as 1t win
have with the people.

Speaking of weapons for close
fighting IN the trenches, the Times
Union recommends the machete the
Cuban cane knife, or the military
fighting blade evoIuted from it. Sure
~ Col. Benjamin Harrison didn't
write that advice. IF he did, Homer
must have nodded. Why didn't he
think for a minute until he remem-
bered the bowie, weapon invented
by a southern man and proved In
merit all over the world. Surely he
remembers the big bowie carried by
many Of our Southern troops in 81
65the 1s-inch blade, good for cut
ting and better for thrusting. It was
just about such another weapon as
the Roman DICTIONARIES carried in
their prime. Now, the machete is =
good weapon to slash with, but it is
no use for thrust. Moreover, If the

Before the war, there was great
deal Of criticism of our navy and fear
that It was deficient. But it certain
ly has made good. Our destroyers
have made most welcome addition
to the British and French fleets fight
ing the Submarines, and our cruisers
have made splendid record in con-
voying tl'oopships to France Last
but not least are the crews of naval
gunners that have manned merchant
ships and passenger liners and given

vous feeling every time he comes to
