Rush To Save Whisky

While part of the population of Nal
g fought to saw twenty-eight bar
rels of whiskey in the basement of the
building, fire originating in an upper
story on Sunday destroyed the old
Malaga Hotel, a South Jersey land
mark.
when the hrskelarm was sounded
scores of villaetE responded. A few
men turned streams of water on the
flames, but Malaga "wets" en- masse
dashed straight for the basement,
where the whiskey had been stored by
T.. j. Smyth, the proprietor.
The fire spread rapidly. but long
after the building was doomed scores
of men risked their lives trying to
reach the whiskey. They were unable
to remove it. The Malaga Hotel was
built by Thomas Iredell in 1860.

When Pershing Commands

An officer sent this message to
headquarters: "Unless l have rein
forcements | must surrender I'M
mediately the order went back from
Pershing: "Turn your command over
and report at headquarters" An
officer could ask for needed reinforce
ments, but he could not talk surrender.
Pershing asked another officer:
"What condition are your troops in?"
"They are tired out. They are not
in condition to continue in action"
The answer was snapped at is not
your troops that are tired out; it is
you. Show your men you have got
the stamina to hold on and your men
will hold ON with you."-George Mac
Adams in the Worlds Work for De-

record Grady county has made in
the drive and the excellent co-opera-

proper attitude that has been as
sumed by the majority in this county
