More of Them in South Georgia Now
Than Ever Before. Farmers Are
Flowing Up Cotton.

ATLANTA, Ga.-Cotton boil wee
wills are thicker in South Georgia now
than at any other period in the his
tory of the state, according to reports
to ]. J. Brown, state commissioner of
agriculture, and A. C. Lewis, state
entomologist.
Rains of the last few weeks and
continued damp weather have caus-
ed the weevils to multiply more rap
idly and brought them from their
places of Information much earlier
than otherwise.
These conditions, coupled with the
fact that the cotton crop is about 80
days late, makes the situation icok
very gloomy for the cotton growers
of the whole South Georgia section,
Mr.. Brown said. =,
Latest reports were that the weevll
has travelled up as far as SO miles
south of Macon, and that it is still
progressing toward the northern half
of the state. Many farmers are re-
ported to be blowing under their cot

ALLIES ARE AT ODDS
ON GERMAN TERMS
GREAT BRITAIN IN FAVOR OF
MAKING CONCESSIONS AND
FRANCE OPPOSES 1T.

PARIS.-Two changes in the Ger
man peace terms, one territorial and
the other financial, are being consid-
cred by the council of four, it be-
came known today.
The financial question is the posi-
bility of the acceptance of the Ger
man proposal to pay an indemnity
of 1O0,OOO,O0O,00O marks which
would involve dissolution of the allied
financial commission to which the
Germans strongly object. 1t is un-
derstood that this proposal has strong
support in certain quarters.
The second proposal is for a pie
biscite. in Silesia and "a guarantee to
Germany of a coal supply from the
Silesian mines.
Experts of the United States,
France, Great Britain and Italy are
expected to meet as soon as posi-
BILE to exchange views regarding the
answer to the German counter propo-
sitions.
President Wilson conferred today
with the American commissioners
and experts. Their role will be that
of mediators.
Great Britain favors a number of
concessions while France remains
firm in her stand to make no conces-
sions.
1t is understood the Americans are
not adverse to minor concessions.

CHICAGO PUT BEACH

ABRIDGED. wicked HIP"
FROWNED ON.

CHICAGO, Ill.-The Egyptians
danced in the sands when the world
was new and the fad even gained
great popularity in Chicago last sum-
mer, but it has now been officially
barred.
With the approach of the bathing
season the city authorities have is
sued an order against beach dancing
in bathing suits.
eve have been liberal in beach
modesty, as the half million persons
who frequented the beaches last year
testify" said Walter Wright, secre-
tary of the bureau of beach super
vision. "We even let the women and
girls of Chicago do away with stock
ings. Indeed, we have been more lib
eral than Atlantic City. But there
must be no more dancing in the sand
in bathing suits. It's positively inn
modest"
The dancing masters admit that

popularity in the big public balls and
cabarets here last winter originated
in the sands of Lake Michigan, where
thousands of bathers paired off and
fox trotted to the rollicking music of
brass bands.
But the masters further say that
there really was no art in the sand
dances. The beach steps became pop
ular in the public halls principally
because they were daring, they de-
clare.
"It is difficult to say just where
the various steps originated" said
one dancing professor. "But it is safe
to surmise that the so-called Wicked
Hip the slip Up and various wob-
bles, glides and dips were first tried
by the sand dancers in bathing suits"
Girls will be permitted to wear
boyish knit suits this year, but the
armholes must be close fitting and
the boomers must come as low as
four inches above the knees.

we were given the government con-
tract to supply &c 23 per cent. of the
coffee used in the trenches. We
could not supply more because our
facilities would not permit.
Hires Instant Soluble Coffee Is not n
