4 COlumbia.-The sugar allowance oe
0e American people has been increas-
red by one-hak.
The allowance % two pounds per
person per month, TO which We have
been limited, II now increased TO three
pounds per person per month.
This increase was announced by the
Food Administration to become effec-
tive November 1.
The same proportionate increase
applies to public eating places. Two
pounds to each 80 meals served has
been the allowance. The allowance
= now three pounds to eac hoo meals.
This makes good the promise Of the
Food Administration to increase the
household allowance Of sugar at the
earliest possible moment that the sup
ply would justify 1t, and makes it pos
sfble for the householder to more free
" use cereals. apple, cranberry and
grape fruit products and the use Of
fruits canned without sugar during
the past summer.
In addition, It is announced at tho
same time that, instead OF the neces-
sity Of buying sugar twice a month, q
whole months supply Of sugar may
be purchased at one time, and retail
dealers are notified to sell sugar in
such quantities.
1t is announced simultaneously by
the Food Administration that, the cam
ming season having closed for this
year, no NJ 1re home Gamers certifi-
Gates will be issued. and no more
sugar will be sold in rs pounds lots

United States Soldiers MOI Al
lowed to Have Liquor.

Parents need have no fear as the
boys are more protected than at
home. Intoxicating liquors are for
hidden to all who are preparing to
battle against the Huns. All of you
mothers who fear for your boys,
read the following prohibition law
recently passed:
"Aicoholic liquor, including beer,
ale and wine, either alone or with
any other article, shall not, directly,
or indirectly, be sold, bartered, CIV
en-, served, or knowingly delivered
to any officer or member Of the mil
itary forces within the United States,
their territories or possessions, or
any place under their control, ex-
cept the medical officers for medici-
nal purposes, or when administered
by or under the direction of a licens-
ed physician or medical officer"
The new regulations became neces-
sary because OF the treating haDlC
in many homes where soldiers visited,
both near the camps and in their
communities. Weakened by the al
coholic poison, their efficiency was
impaired and their liability to dis
ease was increased. Good health is
the first requirement of a good sol
dier. Progressive Farmer.

President Wilson Asks Georg-
ians to Unite on Harris.

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. IL A letter
from President Wilson to Clark How
ell, Democratic national committee
man from Georgia, was made public
here tonight, in which the President
expressed his views concerning the
senatorial race in this State.
The communication was a reply to
a letter written to Mr.. Wilson by Mr..
Howell on July "a, asking the presl-
dent to stake the people of the state
into your confidence and give them
the benefit of your view of the stu
alton"
The presidents letter, under date
of August 7, follows:
"My Dear Mr.. Howell:
"Allow me to acknowledge the re-
ceipt of your letter of July "a, which
has been supplemented by a number
of others from prominent citizens of
Georgia bearing the same inquiry as
to the attitude of the national admin
istration with regard to the pending
contest for the United States senat-
orship in Georgia.
"Your own letter, I observe, IS ad-
dressed to me by you in your capac-
ity as a member of the national DEM
o~cratic committee, and l assume that
it is your feeling that it is proper for
me to answer the question in the in
terest of the party as a national unit.
"I must say, however, that have
been surprised by the question, be-
cause 1 had supposed that the people
of Georgia understood my attitude.
The recent correspondence between
Mr.. William Schley Howard and my
self, which, I understand has been
published, is surely self-eXplanatory.
l have v undertaken, and l never
would presume to undertake, to die
tate to the voters of any state the
choices they should make, but when
my views have been sought by those
who seem to have a right to seek
them, 1 have not hesitated to give
them. I gave them most frankly to
Mr.. Howard when he asked for them.
Senator Hardwick has been a con-
slant and active opponent of my ad-
ministration. Mr.. William J. Harris
has consistently and actively support
ed it.
SIN my opinion the obvious thing
for all those to do who are jealous
of the reputation of the party and
the success of the government in the
present crisis is to combine in the
support of Mr.. Harris.
Sincerely yours,
"Woodrow Wilson,"

The Sugar Situation.

The supply of sugar available tor
August consumption error the coun-
try at large is but little more than
half what it was for the month OF
July. Merchants will be unable to
purchase more than about so per
cent. of their allotment. 1t has
therefore been necessary to curtall
consumption. Instead Of 3 pounds
per capita, only 2 pounds per capita
is allowed for August. In order to
prevent some unpatriotic persons
from purchasing more than their
share of sugar the food admlnlstra-
ton requires merchants to keep a
record of every sale of sugar and a
report of these sales must be tiled
with the County Food Adminlstra-
tor. The record will show who
has purchased sugar and what guam
tity has been purchased by the head
of each family. If the regulations
have been violated the reports OF
the retailers to the food admins

mud twice so did not reach the church
in time, though heard almost all of
Mr.. Nicholson's address also Mr.
Minis and Nh. Kesterson's. All were
forcible. AS Mr.. Minis said, these
flags make us sad every time we see
them and think of what they repre-
sent. Several mothers could not force
themselves to attend the services for
their sons have gone and it grieves
them so. Not that they would not
have them do their duty but to have
their boys go, perhaps never, to come
home again. Let US all pray for them
to be victorious and come home soon.
We were glad to be among the
good people of Republican once again
as it has been such a long time since
we were there last.
Wish it were so we could attend
the protracted meeting which will
continue from Sunday. On for sever
al days.
Hardys, will begin their %protracted
meeting on the third Sunday, 18th,
with two sermons and dinner on the
grounds. After Sunday will only
have one service a day, beginning
at four o'clock slow time, unless we
can have prayer meetings at night
in the homes which we hope will be
adopted. If the roads were not so
miserably bad it would be better to
have them at the church.
We we're rejoiced to hear Mrs.
Minis say our w. NJ. S. sent in the
best report received yet. We hope
we can hold our place among the
first in the w. NJ. U. which is to be
held at Horns Creek the last week
in August, the 18th and goth.

ter Stevens, on Thursday, 18th in

good.
