GARDNER GREEN
 KILLED IN ACTION IN FRANCE SEPT. 12
Another Popular Alabama Company Commander Gives His Life to
 the Cause

Capt. Gardner Green of Company c, 167th infantry, has been killed in ac- tion in France, according to advices reaching Birmingham yesterday from his home in Pell City. Mrs. Green received message from the war department stating that he met his. death Septem- ber F.
 This is the first intmation that the 167th has again been in action after it's fighting of July and August, and it is assumed that Captain Green received his death wound in the St. Mihiel salient where General Pershins so brilliantly opened the American offensive.
 Captain Green was regarded as an ex- ceptionally fine military commander His company was made up largely of Fell City and Huntsville men, although there was sprinkling from all over the state. Captain Green himself made his home in Pel City and for many years has been more or less active in politics in Alabama. He is survived by his wife and a little daughter. Mrs. Green re ceived letter from him Tuesday in which he stated that they were due to go over the top the following day.
 Captain Greens company suffered se- were casualties in the Marne-Asne of. ,fensive and he himself was gassed bad ly and was in the hospital for some time. His eyes especially were severely burned.
 He is the second company commander of the 167th who has given his life, the first being Captain Mortimer Jordan ot Birmingham.

BOUND IN MOROCCO,
 DOUG. FAIRBANKS LATEST, AT STRAND
Fatty Arbuckle, Al St. John and Buster Keaton in '"The Cook" a Wonder
 full Farce Comedy

Bound in Morocco, in which Douglas Fairbanks is appearing at the Strand today gets its title from the opening scene, In a prison cell in Morocco we see Doug bound hand, foot and ankle. so securely that it looks like dollars to decimal points that he cant get away, And then some wicked Algerian hurled a bomb at him.
 While the audience, which is beginning to nave hunch that Doug will get out of it all right, begins to wonder how It happened. some clever captions tell them not to take the plot too seriously And then we are told how it happened.
 Is he captured finally? Well, yes and no. Not until after he has killed sev- eral pirates, torn the prophets beard, climbed couple of walls, entered the harem, met beautiful American girl, been vamped by a haremful of select vampires, been scared to death by a cageful of lions who realized that his name wasn't Daniel, kicked Pick Abou in the face, the shins and other parts of the anatomy and had roaring good time.
 He gets out of his predicament, starts a little war, adopts a beard from an ex- opponent. who will have no further need of it, rescues the American damsel and leaves Morocco and the audience happy.
 But, you haven't seen all of it. Fatty Arbuckle is on the same programme ID his newest comedy, "The Cook" which is said to contain more laughs than his last two pictures combined. Al St. John and Buster Keaton appear in support of the fat comedian. who himself is the boss in the kitchen of beach cafe.

BUT YOU CAN'T RELY ON SPRAYS AND
 INHALERS

There is no use permitting yourself to be deceived. Per- haps, like thousands of others afflicted with Catarrh, you are about ready to believe that the disease is incurable, and that you are doomed to spend the remainder of your days hawk ing and splitting, with no relief in sight from inflamed and stopped-up air passages that make the days miserable and the nights sleepless.
 Of course, this all depends upon whether or not you are willing to continue the old time, make-shift methods of treatment that you and many other sufferers have used for years with no substantial re- suits. If you are still content to depend upon the use of sprays, douches,, inhalers, jellies and other like remedies by them- selves, that are applied to the surface and cannot reach below it, then make up your mind now that your Catarrh will re- main a life companion and will follow you to the grave.
 You must realize that the dis ease itself, and not its symp- toms, is what you have to cure. Of course, you know that when you are cured of any disease it's symptoms will disappear. Ca- tarrh manifests itself by in- flammation of the delicate

CATARRH IS NOT INCURABLE

membranes of the nose and air passages, which choke up and make breathing very difficult. To get rid of these distressing effects, you must remove their cause.
 The blood is laden with the Catarrh germs, which directs their attack against the tender and delicate membranes of the nose and throat. These germs cannot be reached by sprays or touches, which, of course, have no effect whatever upon the blood.
 s. $. s. is a purely vegetable blood remedy, made from roots and herbs direct from the for est, which combat promptly any disease germs or impurities in the blood. This great rem edy has been used for more than fifty years, with most sat isfactory results. It has been successfully used by those aft flicted with even the severest cases of Catarrh, because it drives out from the blood the Catarrh germs and eliminates every foreign substance from the blood. s. s. s. is sold by druggists everywhere.
 For the benefit of those af- flicted with Catarrh or other blood diseases, we maintain a medical department in charge of a specialist skilled in these diseases. If you will write usI fully, he will give your case careful study and write you just what your own individual cases requires. No charge is made for this service.

SUBSCRIPTIONS IF RAILWAY EMPLOYES
 CREDITED LOCALLY
McAdoO Announces Credits Will Be Given Districts From Which Subscrip-
 tions Emanate

Under an order of Director General McAdoo of the railroad administration, subscriptions of railroad employees will be credited to reserve district in which they are located.
 Sixth District Chairman w. C. Ward law has forwarded a copy of the drec- tor generals letter to County Chairman Murray Brown, It follows
 Subscriptions Of Railroad Employees:
 Director general of railroads under date of September r, instructed rail- road officials as follows:
 Please also instruct federal managers in your Jurisdiction to promote the or sanitation at once of Fourth Liberty Loan committees to encourage officers and employees of your region to sub scribe to the approaching Liberty Loan. These committees should cooperate with the regularly constituted commit tees of the Liberty Loan organization. Arrangements should be made so that subscriptions of employees will be clas- sified according to their residences. The amount in the aggregate subscribed by employees of each particular federal serve district should be subscribed with the reserve bank for that district, ac- cornpanied by list showing the amount of each subscription and names of sub- scribers arranged according to the resi- dences of the subscribers, so that each local community may be properly cred tied herewith. The Fourth Liberty Loan campaign is as important as the great battle now being fought, in France. Everything possible should be done to bring the situation home to each rail- road employe. Once this is done, 1 know they will respond even more patri- otically than they have in previous loans. Let us roll up total of rail- road subscriptions that will serve notice on Berlin that the railroad employees of America are in this fight to a finish.
 Cordially yours,
 "W G. M'ADoO" Local committees should get in touch with railroad officials and cooperate in every way with them The railroad company will make it's subscription cov ering the subscriptions of its employees in on9 lump sum with the federal re- servef fbank of Atlanta. but will furnish that {bank with a list of the committees whixh are entitled to credit of subscrip- -tfons of employs residing therein. As soon as this subscription and list is re- ported to the federal reserve bank we will credit each county with the amount of such subscription to which they are entitled, advising you
