they asked.
The answer remained deep mystery
to friend and foe alike until only few
days ago, waen the War Department
lifted the veil Of censorship to permit
an explanation.

shot tho words out IN answer to my ques-
ton:
"How long do the Knights Of Columbus
plan 30 keep Up their work among the
soldiers"
The young man WAS William J. Multi
rsn, in peace times a highly successful
lawyer, Of Hartford, Conn; since war
came the directing general of the army of
men the great Catholic order has en-
moved in war work on the widely sepa-
rated fronts in Europe and behind the
lines in Europe, as we'll as at home and
in the distant possessions of the United
States. Under him the order has spent
millions, plans to spend millions more and,
as he says, "keep up the work until all the
men are home and thereafter"
sThere can be no armistice in work like
this" he went on 'Jn truth, the armistice
has made the work among men, soldiers,
sailors and marines don't forget the ma
rines-more extensive and in some ways
more important than it WAS when the battles
vers on. The fact is, and l think it is
realized by everybody who has given real
thought to the subject, the men are more
in need Of the work we can do for them now
than when they were on the firing line, pre-
psring % 90 on the line or working to sup
port those on the lines.
@Then they had real business in hand
They had plenty and to spare of work and
things to think of Now they have none of
the real work they had then-the real job
is done and they have but one thought
home They cannot all come home at once
but we can and are taking some bita of home
to them. They necessarily have much idle
time on their hands, and it is only fair to
them that those of US who are at home
should help them spend that time.
ave furthermore lave got to help make
their trip home pleasant and do what we
can for them when they get home.

WEAVER MAY ENTER
RACE FOR GOVERNOR
REPORT COMES FROM ATLANTA
THAT DAWSON MAN is BE-
ING URGED TO RUN.

Dawson may have candidate for
governor next year in the person OF
Former Mayor ]. D. Weaver.
Mr.. Viewers many friends here,
who are prepared to get behind his
candidacy and give him loyal sup
port should he decide to enter the
race, read with much interest the
following in the Atlanta Journal of
Sunday:
flames D. Weaver, of Dawson,
Terrell county, may enter the lists as
candidate for the governor, sub
iect to the primary to be held IN
1920. If he yields to the importunl-
ties. of his friends Mr.. Weaver will
make the race as business man, not
a politician.
"While Mr.. Weaver, when seen
yesterday, declined to discuss the
probability of his candidacy, it is be-
fieved, from comment of his friends,
that he has the matter under serious
advisement.
81 am not a politician in any sense
of the word" explained Mr.. Weaver,
"and | am not in Atlanta mingling
with the politicians because of any
gubernatorial aspirations. Of course
| am sensible of the honor of being
governor and appreciative of the
solicitude of my friends, but do not
deem it advisable at this time to make
any definite statement
"Mr. Weaver is one of the best
known men in Georgia, and one OF
the. largest and most successful far
mers in the state. His plantations IN
Terrell county are show places in that
section. With all of his agriculture
interests Mr.. Weaver finds time, also,
for attention to large business inter
ests, and it is the view of those ia
miliar with his career that his sue
cess as farmer is due in large meas
ure to the application of business
methods to the management of his
agricultural interests.
"Mr. Weaver is vice president OF
the Farmers Union of the state. He
has served the city of Dawson as
mayor and held other public offices
in Terrell county. He is graduate
of Emory college, at Oxford"

Discussing the aims and purpoes of
the Legion, he advised the former SOL

from politics. "The American Legion
is not partisan" he said, 'and should
not allow itself to be banded about by
political office seekers"
AS the general left the hall he passed
down lane of wounded men from Fort
Sheridan Hospital. Many were on
crutchcs. The general stopped, shook
hands with every man and questioned
them closely regarding their service,
wounds, and their progress toward re-
covery.

Another wounded veteran volunteered
the information that he had served in

ate the bravery and gallantry Of you

. During ,ne summer this movement
developed to enormous proportions. In
hey have offered very great service to
the White Armies, especially in raiding
the rear Of the Reds. They were esti-
mated in August at numbering hun
dfeds of thousands in different parts
of the country. They became the
terror of the Communist and Soviet
officials in many parts of the prov
inces. In some cases the "Greens"
existed with the connivance, and even
assistance, of local Bolshevist author
tiles, who simply dared not take
measures against them for fear of the
local population. 1t was easy for the
Greens" to maintain their separate
existence, for the population was only
too willing to feed, support, and aid
them in every way. Bread that the
authorities could not force the peasants
to yield even under threat of severe
reprisals the peasants gave up to the
Greens" gratuously. When the
Green" bands get into touch with
sensible officers and leaders, who main
tain with them terms of camara derie,
they are often organized and subject
to discipline. But there is as yet no
coordination between bands Of
Greens" in different districts.

Of the attitude of the "Green" Guards,
At the arrival at the wayside station
Of Kuprino (province of Smolensk) of
a train of Reds. the Greens, who had
seized the station, turned them all out
on to the platform, and ordered all the
Communist and Jews to town up" They
were shown up readily enough by the
other soldiers and we're shot on the
spot. The remainder were dsarmed
and taken into the station. Here they
were given a.splendid feed and asked
what they would like to do. They were
told they might stay with the Greens
or go home disarmed. Most of them
stayed"
