Veterans Will Use. .
Varied Devices to
Make Atlanta Trip

Atlanta, Ga, Sept. H. Confed-
crate veterans are coming to their
twenty-ninth reunion in Atlanta in
October by every mode Of transpor-
tation possible, from shank's mare
to the fastest railroad trains. .
Most Of them will ride the latter,
taking advantage of the one-cent a
mile rate the government gives to
all veterans and their relatives, and
to all maids, sponsors and others
connected officially with the reunion.
Even relatives of veterans who are
dead can get rate. AS result
special trains will pour into Atlanta
for twenty-four hours at the rate
of one every ten minutes.
Not all Of the veterans will come
on trains, however, Colonel Jack
Hale, Of Oklahoma, is walking to the
reunion, a distance Of five hundred
miles. Another veteran in South
Georgia wrote the committee that
he is driving up in his old-fashioned
ox-cart. Still more will come cross
country" in automobiles. Veterans

Wilt Resistant
Tomatoes Produced

Fayetteville, Sept. 18.-Thirteen
varieties of wilt resistant tomatoes
have been developed by the Univer-
sity Of Arkansas experiment station.
Three Of these varieties have proven
to be especially fine, and should be Of
special value to tomato growers in the
southern part of the state, who dur
ing the past few seasons have lost
thousands Of dollars because Of wilt.
All three Of the best varieties are
fine quality of tomato, having
round fruit Of solid color. The to-
matoes ripen evenly and are good
producers. The best variety has not
yet been named; the second best is

Hero of Missouri
River" Killed in
{ Fall from SilO

St. Joseph, Mo-, Sept. 18.-Jack
Ring, 81 years old, winner of a Car
negie medal and perhaps better
known in ST. Joseph and vicinity sas
'"The King of Ring Island" and ''The
Hero Of the Missouri River" is dead.
Death followed an accident when
Ring fell from the top Of a silo at
the government home for soldiers at
Leavenworth, Kansas.
Rings first title-that Of "King Of
Ring Island"-was gained in late
years after he had moved into tum-
ble-down shack close to the Missouri
river, at the outskirts of st. Joseph.
Ring declared shortly before his
death that he made "them fellows
down there do just about" as he told
them, adding that they voted "like |
toll 'em and didn't dare to do other
wise"
Through years OF experience in
saving lives from the river and in
locating bodies of drowned persons,
Ring won the title of "Hero of the
Missouri River. 1t is asserted that
during the fifty odd years that he
lived along the river front, Ring
saved fully three hundred persons
from drowning and was instrumental
in locating the bodies of nearly one
hundred persons drowned in the Miss
ouri.
Rings most priced medal was the
Carnegie medal, given him for saving
a little child from being struck by a
team of runaway horses. This oc-
Cured nearly thirty years ago, ac-
cording to the story told by Ring.
When the Spanish-American war
broke out, Ring joined Company 6,
Fourth Missouri infantry.
In his earlier days, the old soldier
gave diving exhibitions in and near
St. Joseph. Later in the days OF
the gas balloons, he became an adept
at flying. His most spectacular
stunt was hanging from trapeze

Little Rock, Sept. 18.-Poinsett

for the year. It reports a total as
sessment Of # $12,547,ee9, being an in
crease of $3;69O,437 over the assess
ments of 1918. This is an increase
of 41.6 per cent, which is a great

Englishmen Spend
Every Effort for
High Production

London, Aug. neutrality-suspicious.
of The Associated Press.)-Confront
ed by what is described as perhaps
the greatest industrial and trade
crisis in the history of the country,
the commercial leaders of Great
Britain are bending every effort to
speed up production, says the Ameri-
can chamber of commerce in London
One movement undertaken to head
off the difficulties foreseen is IAN
effort to induce the workers to in
crease production by showing them
the dangerously critical position" in
which Great Britain is now placed by
the balance of trade against her.
For July, the adverse balance of
trade amounted to about $3.50 OOO,-
600 according to figures given out by
the American chamber. Imports for
that month increased about $780,
100000 while exports increased only
about $3,500,0OO.
The American chamber points out
that this discloses serious situa-
ton and says that, while it may seem
very well for Great Britain to buy
from America much more than she
sells to America, that is a "fooPs
paradise" for Americans. The
chamber explains that an excessive
adverse balance against Great Britain
would force down sterling exchange
on New York and compel Great Brit.
ain to buy elsewhere, where exchange
is higher q
'The only way out of this" con-
tinues. the statement of the American
chamber, ''is for America to invest in
British securities and to buy gener-
ously of British materials and goods.
that can be used to advantage. This
would give Great Britain the where
withal to pay for her imports from
the United States until she builds
up her exports to pay for them. If
this is not done it is obvious that the
United States exports to Great
Britain must drop off,"
To induce increased production.
employers are endeavoring to show
their employees the need of an ex-
pansion in exports which are char
aeterized as the "life blood of Brit
ish trade"
At the same time, the American
chamber says, the government itself
is being severely criticized because
OF national extravaganza. The Times
is running daily a column headed
1.-THE Road to Ruin" under which the
huge outlay of government funds is
analyzed and given publicity.

TELLS HOW OTHER
PEOPLE GET AHEAD
Pamphlet Issued by U. s. Treasury
Answers Question "How Can
Save Money"

AS an answer to the question, "How
Can Save Money!" the Savings Di-
vision of the Treasury Department has
compiled an Interesting and helpful
pamphlet entitled How Other Ie,pIs
Get Ahead" ...
For individuals and families whose
Incomes are less than $4,000 year
tals pamphlet cfers a number OF Ell
tightening suggestions as 20 the DIS
burseneDt of incomes Of various
amounts from sI5 week upward. Not
only does the material furnish ready
answer to the problem of expenses,
but it affords an authentic source Of
information as to living costs. The
figures were compiled from records Of
official government Investigations into
the several subjects and may be re-
garded as up to date and accurate.
This material makes possible a
new attack In the movement to make
thrift national characteristic and to
foster the habit Of Save First-Spend
Afterward." It will interest peopls In
saving more money by showing them
how much other people find 1t possible
to save and also by showing them how
they can cut down the cost Of living
comparing their costs with average
costs at the same income.
The Savings Division suggests that
an excellent way to drive home the
truths Of the budget system is to have
the schedules discussed at school and
taken home by the children for con,
sideration by the families. Another
method Is to organize house-to-house
canvass through committees Of wo'
men who will bring the budgets to
the attention of families and secure
their agreement to study their own
situation.
Saving and spending budgets have
been prepared to meet local condi'
tions at number Of points, and much
interest in the application Of the bud
gets to the campaign is being mani
tested in sections Of the country
where the National Thrift Campaign
is being carried out successfully.
