SAILOR HARVEY
BACK ON LEAVE
With SOUVENIRS

His cheeks glowing with health,
and wearing two foreign service
stripes upon his sleeve. Bob" Har-
vey, one-time well-known Americas
boy, but who enlisted in the navy
early in the war, is spending several
days with friends and relatives here
and is being heartily greeted by his
many friends. He is a second-cIass
yeomOn attached to the destroyer Man
ley, and states that the navy is the
grandest institution in the world and
offers training course in life that
should be taken by every young man.
He has done his bit, though, and is
ready TO leave the service and take
his place again in civilian life as soon
as the nation can dispense with his
services
On entering the navy he was rated
an apprentice seaman and in that
capacity spent a while with one of
big battleships of the Atlantic fleet,
cruising in mid-AtIantic and keeping
a lookout for possible Hun commerce
raiders. After a few months of this
ne was transferred to a destroyer,
and went at once to Scotland where
his vessel served in convoy work. &C
companying hundreds of merchant
ships through mine and submarine
infested waters between the Orkney
Islands and the Jutland peninsula.
Being on board a destroyer he was
in position to see many mines picked
up, but says the Hun subs were rather
wary of encountering destroyers. His
vessel failed to encounter a single
sub during the stay in North Sea wa
tiers. but frequently passed bits of
wreckage marking the remains of
merchant vessels that had been tOrpe-
decd by the Huns.
He brought back with him a number
of curios which he has exhibited to
many interested friends and says
that many of the surrendered subma-
rines now lying in various British
ports were virtually stripped of their
movable fittings by curiO hunters,
principally sailors attached to the
British, French, American and Ital-
ian fleets, who were permitted to go
aboard the captured prizes. He de-
scribed one Hun mine picked up off
Liverpool by destroyer as more than
nine feet long and of equal circum-
ference, containing an enormous guam
tity of high explosive and capable of
destroying the largest of most heavily
armored battleship.

ASPHALT SHINGLES SAVED
HOUSE in FOREST FIRE

There was just one oasis of safety in
the Moose Lake and Cloquet. Mimi,
district. when those towns were COM
pletely wiped out by fire recently
one house that is standing today, al
though sixteen homes in the immed
late vicinity were burned to the
ground.
This home, which resisted the sparks
and burning embers with which the
air was filled, was rooted with Ger
tainted Asphalt Shingles. The owner
Louis Larsen, says that he owes the
preservation of his home to the As
phalt Shingles, because of the fact
that practically 1870 of the Moose
Lake Houses were burned after the
fire had started on the roof He is
naturally rather proud of his choice
of a roof and is recommending the
same materials to his neighbors.
Instances multiply everywhere daily,
which show that oldfashioned wood
shingles are not only NONRESIDENT in
cases of general confagration, but are
a positive source of danger, as in adj
dition to taking fire quickly, they rap
idly spread burning brands throughout
a whole neighborhood.
For this reason prepared roofing
and shingles are everywhere being
adopted in place of other types of
roof Prepared roofngs have long
been known to offer effective resist
ance to fire, smothering fires which oc-
cur under them, and eliminating the
danger from flaming brands. They
are also the most economical and con-
venient material for roofing. being
easy to 10y, low in cost, compact in
bulk and very durable.
The government recognized these
facts by choosing vast quantities of
prepared roofing for its great war
construction program. All the big
environments were rooted with it. Ac-
cording to some authorities, had it not
been for the availability of this type
of roofing and its economy and con-
venience, the government would have
been seriously handicapped in the
wonderful building record made.
The red or green surfaced shingles
have also been found to blend perfect
ly with every type of building mate
rial and are very desirable from the
artistic point of view. In any form
prepared roofing is the accepted mod
ern material for roofing purposes.

Says He Was Forced
ToHelp Wreck Train

ATLANTA, January 10.-Claiming
that he was forced at the point of
a shotgun to assist Tom Shaw in
wreckiE3 g Southern railroad train
in Twiggs county in 1896, Warren
Criswell, now serving a life sentence
for his crime, has appealed to the
state prison commission for a par
don, being represented by Joe Hill
Hall, formerly member of the Geor>
gia house of representatives from Bibb
county.
Criswell and Shaw were jointly con-
victed and sentenced to serve life
terms. Shaw died in the service of
his sentence. Criswell claims that he
and Shaw were hunting, that Saw
got hold of his gun, then forced him
to take hand in removing a rail
from trestle across Ocmulgee river.
The train was wrecked and members
of the train crew were killed, although
the passengers escaped death. Girls
well asserts that Shaw wanted to kill
his wife, who was a passenger on the
train, in order to marry another
woman.

FOR COLDS AND GRIPPE
FOLLOW DOCTORS ADVICE

Ask any physician or druggist and
he will tell you that the first step in
the treatment of a cold, cough, infiu-
enza or grippe should invariably be "a
brisk calomel purgative, preferably the
nausealess calomel. called Calotabs."
This alone is often sufficient to break
up severe cold over night, or cut
short an attack of grippe and possibly
prevent pneumonia.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time with swallow of water-that's
all. No salts, no nausea nor the
slightest interference with your eat
ing, pleasure or work. Next morning
your cold has vanished and your entire
system is purified and refreshed. Cal
otabs are sold only in original sealed
packages; price thirty-five cents. Rec
commended and guaranteed by drug
gists everywhere. Price refunded If
Won are not delighted. advt

The experience of the past few years
has proved that persons who have
sufficient land and spare time and
who do their home gardening work
intelligently and efficiently find it
profitable. The relatively high prices
of practically all foodstuffs tend to
increase the saving affected, but the

WOMEN ENTERTAINED
FOR THE FIRST TIME
BY THE ROTARY CLUB

For the first time in the history of
its existence in this city. the Rotary
club entertained women yesterday
At the luncheon held the noted suf-
fragist leader, Mrs, Carrie Chapman
Gait, was the guest of honor. In a
very vigorous and mastery address
Mrs. Gait urged that the Rotary mem
bers pass a resolution petitioning the
governor to call a special session of
the leg stature to ratify the suffrage
amendment TO the United States con-
stitution.
The constitution of New Mexico is
unique in the word" said Mrs. Gait,
lin that it shuts women completely
outside for all time. There is no pos
sible way in which the women of New
Mexico can receive privileges of full
citizenship except through an amend
ment to that constitution"
During the Coursc of the luncheon
Attorney Joseph r. Wilson made a
strong plea for the support of the
Red Cross Christmas seal sale. He
was seconded in his remarks by Clin-
ton Anderson. who said that very lit
tie of this money was used for the
Red Cross. the most of it going to
help fight the spread of tuberculosis
DR.. Leroy S. Peters paid tribute
on behalf of the club to DIR. J. f.
Alger, who expects to leave today for
California. DR.. Alger is one of the
Oldest members and the club desired
to express its regret at losing so val
liable member. DR.. Alger in turn
expressed his sorrow at leaving so
many friends, but said that it was
made necessary on account of the
health of his little son,
