NO FURTHER ICE
DELIVERIES ON SUNDAY

The order prohibiting delivery of
ice from wagons, and limiting de-
livery from platforms of EGGPLANT or
dealers storage houses, except be-
tween the hours of and 10 o'clock

in view of the extreme necessity
for the conservation of man power in
all lines of industry and the apparent
Increasing scarcity of labor among
the essential industries of the state
as announced by the state labor de.
partment, 1t is obvious to the Federal
Food Administration for Georgia
that further reasonable cooperation
by the public in the lines of distribu-
ton is a necessity wherever such
cooperation and conservation may
be applied. 1t is therefore.
Ordered that, effective Sunday,
October 49, all manufactures of and
dealers in ice shall make no deliver
les from wagons, trucks or by other
commonly employed means of local
distribution on any Sunday, until fur

may be made from the platforms OF

houses of dealers only between the
hours of 8 and 10 A. M. on Sunday
Provided, further, that in cases of
extreme emergency, County Food
administrators may issue special
permit, on proper showing, in iidivi
dual case may be made by the dealer
In consideration of the foregoing
order the suggestion is made by the
Federal Food Administration to the
consuming public that, while careful
attention to the ice box has been re-
quested at all times, and that conser.
walton of ice should be practiced
generally. especial attention to this
should be given each Saturday, and
on that day sufficient supply should

Food Is Now Americas Most In

COMB OUT The idle men
Draft the Exempted Men In an Aprl.
cultural Army-Put Million
Men at the Disposal Of
the Farmer.
BY MARK SWAN,
Of the Vlqilantes,

We Americans like to consider our
selves the most wide-awake people in
the world. Hustle is our middle name,
and we glory in it. When the word
American Is mentioned in connection
with job, or an emergency, we con-
jure up a mental picture of an alert
and determined individual, with the
fine frenzy Of conflict flaming in his
eyes, rolling up his sleeves and doing
things. We revel in this conception of
ourselves. 1t is very complimentary
and very comforting. There Is one
slight flaw in the picture. 1t isn't true.
Naturally, when a spectacular op-
portunity arises, like the declaration
of war last April, we do wake up and
do things. We buy bonds, and enlist,
and drill ; we join defense leagues, and
knit, and make bandages, and all the
rest of it-feverishly, sincerely-tak-
Ing great credit to ourselves. mean
while, for our unalloyed patriotism,
and forgetting, by the way, that all
the things we are doing. and mean to
do, should have been foreseen, and
done long ago, quietly thoroughly, and
as a matter of course.
We Are Asleep.
We were warned over and over
again. But we were asleep. And we're
asleep now. We're facing the most ire
mendous emergency that has ever con.
fronted us, the bald, cold fact that the
United States is not going to raise as
much food as we raised last year, that
we are not going to raise nearly
enough to supply ourselves and our
allies with food - and we're SOUND
asleep!

Saint-Eypre, near Luneville.
About five in the afternoon the ad-
vanced line of the battalion took shell
ter back of little ridge, which pro-
tected it from the Germans, who were
only 100 yards ahead. A veritable
storm, both of rifle and artillery fire,
whistled constantly over the heads Of
the sheltered French Battalion
Suddenly, from out of the ranks Of
the Third company, an unknown re-
servist, who had just arrived that
morning, leaped to the summit of the
little ridge under which the battalion
was resting.

hanging from his mouth, he began
