TIME FOR EMANCIPATION

Atlanta, Ga, March 19.-Whether
American women will ever emanci-
pate themselves from the dominion of
Paris fashion makers is open to con-
siderable question, in view of the
subtle peculiarities of the feminine
mind, but at least one organization
of Atlanta girls are already on the
road to freedom in fashions. They
are the students of Elizabeth Mather
College, an exclusive private school
of this city, who have demonstrated
that wealth and established social po-
sition are not bar to the practical
affairs of life. In the sewing depart
ment of Elizabeth Mather the girls
have learned to make dresses and
suits OF all kinds that compare with
the most expensive produces of the
most expensive establishments, and
a recent display Of their style crea-
tons in the show window of an At
lanta department store attracted
more attention than all the latest
styles from New York and Paris

FIRST WOODEN SHIP IS
LAUNCHED ON ATLANTIC

Washington, March 18.-The first
wooden ship of the ship boards war
program to be launched on the At
!antic coast will take the water to-
morrow at Newark, N. J., and will be
christened Coyote by Miss Phyllis
Hughes, daughter of the former sena-
tor from New Jersey. The Coyote is
the Ferris type of $500 tons.
Owing to railroad congestion,
which delayed timber for weeks, the
Coyote has been nearly six months in
building. Such delay is not expected
to occur again, as ship timbers were
said today to be coming through from
the northwest in sufficient quantity to
keep the yards going. Another ship
will be launched in the same yard in
three weeks, while others will follow
more rapidly.

SAYS WAR MUST BE DECIDED
IN AIR

Atlanta, Ga, March l9.-No decis-
ion in trench warfare but victory for
America and the Allies through an
overwhelmingly superior force of
aeroplanes built in this country and
manned by American hyers-that is
the war situation as summed up by
Senator w. S. Kenyon, Of Iowa, in
the course of a patriotic address in
Atlanta last night in the interest of
thrift and war savings stamps, de-
1ivered under the joint auspices of the
Atlanta and Georgia war savings
committees.
MY recent observations along the
western front, where | spent several
weeks, convinced me that neither side
will decide the issue by trench war
fare" declared Senator Kenyon. But
the issue can be decided, and will be
decided, by an overwhelming force Of
aeroplanes built in the United States
and manned by American flyers. My
prediction is that America will send
aloft no less than $4,000 machines
above the western battle line before
the was is over, and when that is done
goodbye to the Kaiser's hopes. At
the present time the balance of air
strength is about evenly divided be-
tween Germany and the Allies, each
having about the same number Of
machines in action"
Senator Kenyon's address was at
tended by large audience who gave
him enthusiastic applause, and the
meeting produced good results for
the thrift stamp movement Owing
to his staunch support of President
Wilson's war measures, Senator Ken
yon, who is Republican, will not be
opposed for reelection by the Demo
cratic party of his state.

UNSUITABLE DEVICES
TO BE PUT TO THE TEST

Washington, March 19-Immediate
investigation of all ships now build
ing to see if they can be equipped
with any of the devices submitted to
make them unsuitable or torpedo
proof, was ordered today by Chair
man Hurley of the. shipping board,
after receiving a confidential report
from the navy department on success
that is being achieved in the protect
ion of war vessels.
The board announced Saturday
that the time had come when expert
ments should be made to obtain an
unsuitable ship. Hudso1 Maxim S
invention will be tried first, and three
or four other devices, as soor as thew
can be built Chairman Hurley gave
the official attitude of the board when
he said they declined to overlook any
chance that seemed to offer success.
IF ten ships are attacked and the
devices save only two, then we gain
that much," he said. "The devices
we have under consideration will not
delay production or lessen the ships
efficiency"
Details of the invention are with
held under the voluntary censorship.

British War Fread
Gets En- 1orse nent
Of Leasing Scientists

Correspondence Associated Press-l
London, April l7.-The British wa,
bread has been indicated and en-
dorsed by committee of scientists
after a series of tesla conducted in the
laboratories of C. - ;dge, Glasgow
and London unive :~-.ies and in a
number of factories and hospitals.
The committee finds bread COM
posed of whole wheat flour mixed with
20 per cent of other cereals is not only
suited TO all ages and digestions but
also gives a higher percentage Of
energy"
The loaves used in the experiments
were baked from -four milled under
the personal supervision of A. Z.
HUMPHREYS, president of the National
Association of British and Irish Millers.
No precauton was omitted to make
the experiments complete and every
result was worked out in series Of
tables.
At one factory in Yorkshire the tests
were applied to a group of twenty men
nine women and two children. 1t was
their sole bread supply for a peiiOd c.
two months and they were under med
ical supervision turnout. In no case
did it cause digestion trouble and in
certain cases health seemed 10 iii
prove during its use.
When the mixed bread was tried on
twenty five patients suffering from
tuberculosis it was found that the
bread was preferred by the majority of
the patients, a. of whom had more or
less impaired digestion Most of the
patients gained weight during the
period they were under observation.
The report Of the committee says:
The main fact established is that
the human body can make better use
of the parts of the wheat grain which
have hitherto been discarded than the
pigs and opultry to which these rich
and nutrient by-products of milling
have been given in the past The coun-
try mas gained enormously in food and
energy from the compulsory inclusion
in the loaf of these byproducts. The
gain can be expressed in definite terms
as an increase of 1,T'00 billion calories
of energy on the wheat milled each
year in this country, or enough to ex-
tend the cereal supply of energy for
more than a month
