y. S. Officer Tells How American Colonel
Won the Battle Of Cantigny by Shave

1t is a common way of speaking
to say that events in which a razor
WAS never thought of have been
won by shave" But a razor nom
chalantly applied in the heat of the
scrap at Cantigny actually saved the
day for the Americans, in the opin-
ion of First division officers ac-
quainted with the facts. All glory
is due, they say. to Colonel Lucius
r. Holbrooll. then commanding the
Seventh field artillery. the industri-
Gus wielder of the soap stick and
brush.
Among the officers familiar with
the incident is Lieutenant Joseph V.
McCabe, formerly in Battery u, of
the Seventh, who tells the story as
follows:
"On that historic May % the brunt
of the fighting for the division was
to be borne by the Twenty eighth in
fantry. In active support of it was
to be the First battalion of the Sew
enth field artillery. In order to di
rect the artillery action from the
best possible vantage point, Colonel
Holbrook, who at the time was also
in charge of the. artillery brigade,
went forward with the headquarters
Of the infantry. right behind the first
waves of charging 'doughboys' that
swept over the town.

All in Readiness for
1920 Census in January

Sam Rogers, director of census
will begin to count noses i'll the
United States January 2.
"To count the people is a big
job, but [ have the finest working
machine in and out of Washington,
says the census director.
The census bureau estimates the
count will show 110,000,000 people
as against the 1910 population of
1872, 266.
The work of gathering data will
be completed in two weeks after it
starts. The big job will be compil-
ing it. Every large city in the coun-
try has one or more census super
visors. New York City is divided
into four districts. Other supervis-
ors have charge of one congressional
district each.
Figures on the total population
will not be ready till fall of 1920.
The only additional information
this census will show, not included
in previous decennial censuses, will
be the amount of mortgages on
homes. In 1910 the census showed
that of the 2O,255,5 55 homes in the
United States. 9,O83,711 were owned
and 10.697,S95 wer rented. Of the
homes owned, 2,931.695 were en-

DR.. Cook Discovers Oil
Well Worth Millions

DR.. Frederick S. Cook, of North
Pole fame, had some difficulties in
connection with his claim to the dis
covery of the North Pole, but he says
there is nothing wrong with the oil
well which he has found. He is now
in New York, and though he hasn't
the cold cash in his pocket he de-
clares he is at least $1000,000 bet
ter off for having discovered oil.
Unlike discovering the Pole, he has
the we'll and the oil to prove it, he
says.
'"The trouble with the North Pole"
he explained, sis that after you find
it there isn't any pole there. You
can't even carve your initials on it.
But an oil we'll is entirely different.
I'd like to see someone who says
the oil we'll is not right where I say
it is.
"rhree days ago I received tele-
gram saying this well was produce
ing 5000 barrels day. Yesterday
the news was that the production
was $500 barrels. and today that
it is producing 5000 barrels.
'"rhe telegram from Texas said
you are now an oil millionaire was
suggested.
II wouldn't take 81 100000 in cash
for my share of the Well,' was the
reply. and | want to make clear
right here that [ have no oil stock
or oil land or anything like that to
sell. All the stock is owned by my
self and my friends. And it won't
be on the curb either"
And you figure that you are
worth well upward of $1,000,OO0?"

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect 1t
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from drug
gists who are constantly in direct
touch with the public, there is one
that has been very sue
cessful in overcoming these condi-
tons. The mild and healing influ-
ence of DR.. Kilmer's SWamp-Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest
for it's remarkable record of sue
cess.
An examining physician for one of
the prominent Life Insurance Com
panies, in an interview Of the subject,
made the astonishing statement that
one reason why so many applicants
for insurance are rejected is because
kidney trouble is so common to the
American people, and the large ma
jority of those whose applications
are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. 1t is on
sale at all drug stores in bottles of
two sizes, medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test
this great preparation send ten cents
to DR.. Kilmer & Co, Binghamton,
N. Y. for sample bottle. When
writing be sure and mention The

WEEVTL INVESTS
EBERT COUNTY,
DECLARES EXPERT

ELBERTON. Ga, Nov. ii. c.
Maness, Of the state department OF
entomology, threw a bomb into the
camp of the business men and farm
ers of Gilbert county last night in an
address to the Elberton Board of
Trade, when he told them that in an
inspection tour over the county yes
terday he found the boil WeeVil in
dangerous numbers. lie had quite a
few of the weevils with him and eX-
hibited them to the members. Mr..
Maness stated that he thought the
weevil had come in the past few
weeks in such numbers because of
the continued warm weather.
Gilbert county made one Of its
largest crops this year and appar-
entity had no weevils at all during
the growing stage. Many farmers
had come to believe the weevil never
would do much damage in this sec
ton of the state, but Mr.. Maness
told them last night that if they
have a wet season here next year
the weevils are present in such num-
bers that they may ruin the crop.
The board of trade has asked the
department of agriculture to allow
Mr.. Maness to return to Elberton

Men Buy $3.50 Worth
Of Water From BOotIeuqer

The bottles were dark. 1t looked
like whisky and it cost $3.50.
But it tasted like water-and was
water.
Victor V. Lockwood and Harlan
Crouch, of indianapolis, paid $2,150
to Virgil Shepard, of Danville, In
diana, for ten sacks of bottled
whisky. They loaded the supposed
contraband in their automobile and
started back to indianapolis.
Just outside of Danville they
stopped at the side of the road to
take a drink. They discovered that
they had bought $3.50 worth of
water.
The men complained to the Dam
vile police that Shepard, a negro,
just out of the Indianapolis JAIL
where he served a sentence for boot
Logging, represented to them that the
stuff was real firewater, purchased
by himself in Danville.
Shepard later admitted, the police
say, that he filled the brown bottles
out of Danville creek.

from the economic loss caused by
the removal of productive workers
from the wage-earning class, there
is added a financial burden in direct

A large item is the maintenance of
special schools for blind children. 1t
takes far more to educate the blind
than the normal child. Including the
expense of institutions. library facil-

approaches millions.
Fifteen million dollars can be

sent by the Japanese Association of

The resolutions gave the average
yearly number Of picture brides"
as 65S from 1912 to 1918, inclusive.
The picture bride" plan was ex-
planned as the selection of Japa-

feast participated in by both houses,
and the exchanging of photographs

Premier Clemenceaus refusal to
stand as a candidate for the cham
Der of deputies is regarded as con-
elusive evidence of his answering
determination to retire from politi-
cal life Immediately after the cleo
tons. There has been much in
credulity expressed concerning the
sincerity of the premier's decision to
retire. His political foes were ear
nestly DESTROYS and his friends were
alarmed, both refusing to believe the
announcement as official until it
was confirmed yesterday. The po-

bition was toward the presidency Of

mier's repeated refusals to allow his
name to be put forward by his

Public Road Betterment
Will Help Land Values

Wherever public roads are I'M
proved the general tendency is for
the value of adjoining farm lands
to increase. This is a practical con-
sderation which promoters of bet,
ter highways point out should not be
overlooked, for it means that money
wisely spent OH the thoroughfares
is an investment paying good re-
turns. Investigations by the U. S.
department of agriculture show that
the value of land adjoining certain
highways experienced marked in
creases in value after improvements
in the roads were made. By COM
parison with similar land on roads
which had not been improved it was
manifest that the betterment of the
highways was a principal factor in
the rise of land prices.
