YOUTHFUL MARINES
VIII Take Boys of IS Years-BIg
Record Made In France

Since the entrance Of the United
States into the war the Devil Dogs
as the United States marines are call
ed by the Germans. have enlisted
1896 recruits under twenty-ono
years of age. representing 80 per cent.
of the enlistments during the period.
The policy of the marine corps in
admitting boys of eighteen years and
over into the ranks is more than JUS
titled, officers claim, by the heroic
fighting of the marines at Chateau
Thierry and Belleau Wood. the show
ing they have made In their sector of
the Marine line since that time, and
the youthfulness of many Of the ma
rines who have been decorated and
cited In France.
While IL was known that many
boys under t~wenty-one were serving
with the Devil Boys the statement
that they aggregated nearly one-third
of the enlistments will no doubt come
as a surprise to some.
The marine corps still takes boys
between the ages of eighteen and
twenty-one years Of g for enlist
ment without the consent of their
parents.
These boys are accepted for enlist
ment and transferred TO the Devil
Dogs" training camp at Paris Island,
s. c.
Men are being accepted for enlist
ment In the "Devil Dogs" up to forty
years of age.
Applications for enlistment for
duty at the marine corps laundry at
Paris Island, s. c., are coming In very
slowly, markers, s%orters, washmen,
extractor men and men who have a
thorough knowledge of the operating
of O mangle are needed.
Experienced linemen. telephone in
stallers, radio and telegraph opera
tors are needed.
There are still three vacancies for
sewing machine operators.

FISHING BOATS BEAT SUB

Six Trawiers Force German U-Boat to
Submerge After Attack.
LONDON, Aug. 10-Sir Eric Ged-
des, first lord of the admiralty, tells
how six fishing trawiers defeated a
U-boat off Iceland.
They saw the sub coming toward
them, with two large guns, probably
six-inch. Under command of a naval
volunteer lieutenant, who had charge
of operations they formed in line of
battle and attacked.
1.-THE submarine fired more than 100
shots, but the trawlers worked
around It, and the battle continued
for an hour.

Then they hit her again and she
dived. Whether she sank or not is
unknown, but 1t was a victory for the
fishermen"

By the Rev. Charles Sickle.

When the boys come back-wiIl life
be counted cheap because of the
slaughter of millions of mem
Anything but that.
Dying will be a light thing for them
but killing will be reckoned more
horrible than ever, for now these
boys of ours know what killing a
human being
They are now fighting like fury
because the dastardly hun has killed
men and ravaged ONE without con-
science or consideration OF any other
sort.
1t isn't likely hat they will find
the same ghoulish glee in killing and
the maltreating human bodies that
the Huns do.
When the boys come back, they will
put into civic life the fine idealism and
devotion which they learned In the
army and navy.
They will fight the devils of bad
government and unjust economic con-
ditions just as fearlessly as they
fought the devils in the trenches IN
France.

Governor Puts Into Force Machinery
That VIII Reach Them In
That State. y Z


SAVANNAH, { Ga.-Woe to- every.
"Weary William" that brings himself
Georgiaward in the quest of rest and
peace under the balmy Southern skies
from now on. ~ ~
AS a. war measure Gov. Hugh Dor
sey has put into force machinery de-
signed to- force every vagrant in
Georgia to 'go1to work, and itI will be
systematically and Professionally fol-
lowed up by him as means of reliev-
ing the farm labor shortage.
To meet the situation Governor Dor
sey has addressed a special and urgent
communication to every county coun-
Gil of defense in the state requesting
them to put in operation the following
plan:
1. Join forces with their sherfffs,
solicitors and superior court judges to
arrest and convict all Migrants.
2. To give the Migrants the choice
of going to the chain gang or going to
the farm, and probation them to work
on farms under proper supervision.
8. Follow up the prosecution OF
Migrants with the utmost persistence
and vigor, making it certain of pun
ishment for Migrants, that idle men
will go to work voluntarily.
Governor Dorsey believes it is the
duty of every state to force every idle
man to work before it calls on the
government to furlough men from mil
itary service. He believes there are
thousands of men loafing in cities and
towns throughout the state. He be-
lieves the sheriffs and courts will be
glad to join in a statewide crusade,
which shall not be relaxed, to put
these men to work. He believes the
man power thus conserved will great
ly, if not entirely, relieve the farm la
Dor shortage. AS he points out, Geor-
gia's vagrancy law is one of the best,
while Georgias probation law exactly
fits in with the present situation by
enabling judges to send convicted vag-
rants to work on the farms. -
