ENCOUNTERED -FOUR U-BCATs
ON WAY OVER HERE

A British Port, Jan 49,. An
American liner has just reached this
port after encountering four German
submarines, one Of which is believed
to have been damaged by fire from
the ships guns.
The first submarine was sighted
on foggy night and the two craft
were so close together that they near
ollided
The U-boat quickly submerged and
the vessel put on more speed She
was apparently followed however
for later on two more submarines
were sighted, one on each side Of the
steamer.
The ships guns opened a hot fire
and the gunners believe that one Of
the submarines was struck
The ship again escaped, but sew
eral hours later another submarine
was sighted Again the gunners
opened fire, but whether or not the
U-boat was hit is unknown,
In the meantime wireless call
was sent out and destroyers came
up at top speed Search was made
for the submarine while the liner
continued on her way to port
1t was stated that great excite.
ment prevailed upon the steamship
while she was being threatened but
that there was no panic.

ORDER OF FUEL ADMINS
TRAITOR TO SUSPEND
OPERATIONS OBEYED.
UKASE UNEXPECTED
Proclamation Came to Country
Like a Bolt From a Clear
Sky.

While managers of local factories
were astounded by the edict of Fuel
Administrator Garfield ordering in
dustrial plants throughout the coun-
try to shut down for a period Of five
days, the order has been compiled
with and not a single concern in CO.
lumbus that comes within the pro-
visions of theorder is now in oper-
alton.
The largest industrial enterprise in
the city is the Columbus Lumber
Company, and while the concern does
not consume coal, waste lumber be-
ing used as fuel, the mill comes un-
der the provisions of the order, and
Mr.. D, F. Mccullough, the manager
states that it will be obeyed to the
letter.
There are numerous smaller lum.
ber mills not only in Columbus bu
il the contiguous territory in Eas
Mississippi and West Alabama, and
while most Of them use refuse lum
her for fuel, they too, have compiled
with Dr. Garfield's order and are
closed down. According to informa-
ton received here, the manager of
mill in Pickens county, Ala, who Is
saving lumber on an order from the
federal government, on Thursday re.
ceyed a telegram requesting him tc
cpeed up the work and early FRIDAY
morning received another telegram
from Fuel Director Garfield order
ing him to close down his mill. He
was a little confused at first; bu
after reading the order carefully de-
cided to comply with its provisions
and forwith closed his mill.
The fuel situation in Columbus is
still acute The local supply became
completely exhausted Wednesday
and while a dealer received single
CIR the following day it was quickly
exhausted and during the past few
days it has been almost impossible
to obtain fuel Many people have
been endeavoring to secure wood,
but the weather has been so bad that
much difficulty has been experienced
in7inducing the country people to
haul it to town.

Equipment for Fairgrounds.

At the regular meeting of the
Parent Teachers Association of
Franklin Academy Thursday the
need of playground equipment was
discussed. 1t was decided that the
Association would try to place some
equipment on the Fairgrounds. 1t
is desirable that the students develop
their bodies along with their minds.
One large element of success is that
we should be physically fit and able
to put 100 per cent of ourselves into
our work That we should be good
animals.
Students on account of the vitiat-
ed air in the school rooms are more
subject to constitutional disease,
such as tuberculosis and pneumonia,
than the outdoor worker and they
need exercise in the open air in or
der to combat the Tenderness and
dangers of these diseases. Educa-
ton or wealth without health is of
little value

day with a special programme in
cluding sermon embodying the idea
of the War Saving Stamps.
Following up Thrift Sunday
will be Thrift Day." Feb. A, when
the work done in the churches the

Many churches in Louisiana and

Nashville, Tenn, Jan. 19.-"The
people of the United States do not
know all that DR.. Garfield knows
about the gravity of the fuel situa-
tion," said W. E. Meyer, state fuel
administrator, in commenting on the
iiticisms that have been aimed at
the fuel order. "Dr. Garfield can
not afford to take the nation fully
nto his confidence in the matter, for
hat would give information that
would be of value to our enemies.
every patriot must back up the ad-
ministration in its efforts, even
,hough some time it may appear to
iome that mistakes are made. We
hould never lose sight of the fact

We must not forget that those at the

i the whole nation in the best way
ossible.
Il firmly.believe that if everybody
NEW all the facts in DIR. Garfeld's
possession, there would not be anoth-

against the fuel order. One of the
great troubles is that many people
