DRIVE FOR PURE-BRED
SIRES NATIONWIDE

WASHINGTON, August 5.-"Bet-
ter Sires-Better Stock"
This is the slogan of a national
better live stock crusade to get ac-
lively in motion in October that is
announced by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, working in
cooperation with the State agricul-
tural college and other agencies in
terested in live stock improvement.
The campaign looks forward to the
future for needs of this country's in
creasing population and results from
long and careful observation of the
livestock industry in this country and
was planned after extensive consul
tation with specialists and breeders.
The plan is to hasten the replace
ment of the multitude of scrub do
nestle animals in the United States
with pure-bred or high-grade stock,
and also to improve the quality of
pure-breds themselves. The goal in
view is greater efficiency in pro-
duction.
The campaign will be the first or
ganized crusade in large country to
improve all live stock simultaneously
1t will interfere in no way with any
work in live stock improvement now
being conducted, but makes all the
work more definite and effective by
providing official recognition for pro-

BUSTSOFKALSER
AGAIN ORDERED
into OBLIVION

BERLIN, August 5.-(By Asso-
ciated Press. THE question wheth-
er photos, chromos or busts of the
dethroned German Emperor are to
be tolerated in official buildings and
public schools, has come up again
for discussion before the Prussian
Diet which was informed by Konrad
Haenisch, the Minister of Education,
that, despite his efforts to leave the
delicate task to the tact and judg-
ment of the respective officials, nu-
merous instances have been reported
to his ministry to the effect that the
Hohenzollern emblems, once remov-
ed, have Been ostentatiously restored.
This prompted him to issue new
edict which orders the definite re-
moval of such pictures and other re-
minders with the exception of art
products.
Haenisch was applauded by the
Left when he declared that the re-
minders of cold Kaiser days." could
be no more tolerated than were the
Republican emblems under the old
Regime.
He suggested that the iconoclastic
operations should proceed with as
little demonstration as possible and
recommended teachers to use their
summer vacation for the job of pack
ing up the painted, etched and mar
bled Hohenzollern.

SCHOOL FLOGGING MARK
OF REAL ARISTOCRACY

LONDON, August 5.-(By Asso-
clated Press 1.-The old custom of
hogging students is still in vogue in
British colleges whose students are
as old as the average American col
lege man. The custom is most fol-
lowed in the higher class institutions,
so that to have been logged at school
or college is said to be the mark OF
an aristocrat.
At Cheltenham college the Students
hazed Barnwell, the former tender
of college baths, because he deserted
the baths for higher wages in an air
craft factory. They bombarded
BarnwelPs house with bricks. There
upon, Barnwell's workmates VITA sew
eral hundred of the populace march
ed to the college and told their story
to the principal, Archdeacon Water
field. 1t was agreed that the stud
ents' should pay damages and be
f1ogged by the Archdeacon This WIS
satisfactory to all concerned, includ-
ing the students.
Because of the number to under
go castigation, lots were drawn so
that one out of ten of the student
body should get the whip. This also
was satisfactory to the students But
this sporting spirit so impressed the
bathkeeper's faction that they pro-
posed that both sides shake hands
and call it off, which was done with
mutual regrets and compliments.

To Keep Books Fresh.

To prevent mold on books, place a

balsam in a back corner of each shelf.
This will not injure the bindings of
leather books as sulphur compounds
do, but helps to preserve the bindings.

SAGE OF BULL SLUICE"
HAS VIEWS OF HIS OWN

If mention were made of James w.
Thompson it would be quite another
matter; but nobody in these compan-
les needs an introduction of 'Uncle
Jimmy" the Sage of Bull Sluice.
Since 1902, when he began as
Waterman at Morgan Falls at the time
construction of the dam was started,
Uncle Jimmy has been steadily with
us. Except few months spent at
Tallulah Falls, just after Supt and
Mrs. Smith moved there from Morgan
Falls, has has been one of the institu-
tions of the latter station. Tallulah
was worth SIS of any mans money to
look at, Uncle Jimmp conceded; but
he couldn't stay away from his first
love on the Chattahoochee.
Uncle Jimmy has pronounced views
on politics and religion and govern
ment and other like subjects, and
feels no timidity about expressing
them. One of his earliest teachers
in Sunday school at Roswell was the
mother of Theodore Roosevelt. He
is staunch adherent of the late ex-
president, and remembers him by no
more formal name than Theodore.
1t is one of the contentious of Uncle
Jimmy that Noah was wiser man
than Solomon, despite all traditions
to the contrary.
"Any man who'd have a thousand
wives is a damn fool" he asserts fatty.
'Noah at least had sense enough to
get in out of a shower of rain"
81 believe everything in the Bible
that is reasonable" he declares, recall
ling that once he made that remark
to very religious woman. She scold
ed him for qualifying it at all. "And

believe Jonah swallowed the whale, do
you?' she came back with 4 certainly

WIFE OF Won BERNSTORFF
SHOWN IN BANQUET SCENE
AS ACCESSORY TO MURDER

New York, March 10.-Exhibition
of a banquet scene in photoplay
which depicts Countess Won Bernstorff
wife of the former German ambassa-
dor to the United States, as an &C
cessory to a murder plot Matched by
her husband, was restrained for three
DAYS by Justice Cohalan in supreme
court here to day.
Justice Cohalan reversed decision
on an application for temporary IN
junction pending an examination OF
briefs submitted by counsel for Paul
inc Lewis. of San Francisco, who
brought the suit on behalf of Coun-
tess Won Bernstorff and producers OF
the film.
The Countess Won Bernstorff, be-
fore her marriage, was Miss Jeanne
Luckmeyer, an American citizen
After wa rbroke out she returned to
Germany with her husband.
The above dispatch from New York
would indicate that the Won Bern
storffs are still sensitive to American
opinion, and also that their good
friend and fellow conspirator, justice
Cohalan, whom Mr. Wilson refused to
see last week, is still willing to DO
them favor.

GIFTS FROM ''Y"
HELPED DOUGHBOY

Corporal Irving Abrahams of New
Just because the Y. M. c. A. men
overseas had gone out of their way
to treat him well, he took the trouble
to make his way to the Headquarters
Building of the National War Work
Council, Y. M. G. A., New York City,
and found some one on the 9th floor at
Headquarters to tell how much he ap-
preciated the service of the Red TRAN
gle.
This is just part of what he said:
i returned from France on the
eth of January Have been wounded
three times. Am feeling fine, but the
first time when we landed over in
France in April, 1917, we took the
position up on Chateau Thierry Sand
the Y. M. G. A. was right with us and
brought up on the firing line choco-
late, cigarettes, and also pears, bis
cult and done the best and all he could
just to please the boys.
"And in August when we drove the
Germans back he came up under
heavy shell fire and brought us the
same chocolate, cigarettes, and if the
boys didn't have any money he would
give it to us just the same.
"And up on the Argonne Forest he
went under heavy shell fire and
brought up all the candy and ohoco-
ilate, and also spoke to the boys to
send our money to our mothers and
which we did, and also he told us to
send our money home and he will do
all he can for us, and also the boys of
the Third Division is very well pleas
led of the Y. M. G. A. and also thank
them ever so much; and also when
we got relieved from the Argonne
woods the Y. M. G. A. entertained us,
gave US a grand time, and we thank

Red Triangle Man Tells Of
Serving At Chateau Thierry

The Y M. G. A. has been criticized
because it was said that it had no one
at the fighting in the region of Cha
Iteau Thierry. The other day, Ernest
&c. Bardwell. a New York man, came
back from France, broken in health
because of his strenuous work in that
region
Mr.. Bardwell was one of party of
Y. M. c. A. men who entered Cha,
teau Thierry village with supplies at
10 o'clock on the morning of July %
and worked all day and far into the
might serving the boys who were beat
ing back the German counter-attacks.
THE last German prisoners, he said,
were taken out of Chateau Thierry at
$3.50 o'clock on the same morning.

A NARRoW-GUAGED WRITER

Mr.. Frank H. Symonds, the well
known writer on historical questions
connected with the war, and who is
now sending letters from Paris to the
New York Tribune and to the Atlanta
Constitution, appears to have some
rather queer ideas of propriety. Fol
lowing the death of Ex-President
Roosevelt a good many of his partisan
supporters appeared to take advan-
tage of the universal wave of SYM
pathetic eulogy which swept over the
country, to disparage President Will
son by comparison with Colonel
Roosevelt. If it would have been I'M
proper, as it certainly would, to keep
up any partisan warefare against Mr..
Roosevelt after his death, it seems
almost equally improper for his poll
tical friends to have kept UP attacks
in his name upon those who differed
from him in his lifetime. MIR. Sy-
monds has duplicated this in a more
recent occurrence. There was sharp
differences of opinion between Presl-
dent Wilson and Premier Clemenceau
of France in regard to some questions
concerning peace adjustments. Fol
lowing the violent attack of an as
sassin upon the great Frenchman, uni
versal sympathy has gone out to him,
combined with universal desire for his
speedy recovery. Mr.. Symonds has
very artfully and insidiously in one
of his recent letters capitalized this
wave of sentiment to the disadvan-
tage of the distinguished American
representative in the court of nations.
1t seems that silence on controverted
questions, so far as relates to this
distinguished French leader, would
have been appropriate, pending his
recovery.-Christian Index.
