WOMEN VOTERS DO not
WANT TO BE PETTED
Atlanta Suffragettes Become PeeVed
Because Registrar Did Not Ask
Their Age8-No MoIy-Cod
ding Wanted.

Atlanta. Ga, May 27,-Some Of
Atlanta's prominent suffrage leaders
become quite peevish yesterday when
the clerks in the office of Lusian Har
ris, tax collector of Fulton county and
city registrar OF Atlanta, courteously
refraied from asking the women
their ages as they presented themsel-
yes at the window to register for the
city white primary.
Lucian Harris is a son OF the late
beloved Joel Chandler Harris, author
of Uncle Remus" and other books OF
national reputation. Perhaps his
IDEAS of courtesy towards the ladies
are a bit old fashioned and Out-of-
date. Maybe that is why he quietly
tipped off the clerks in his office to
Iating to the ages of the new voters
Where a lady wanted to tell her age
and volunteered the information, the
clerk put it down. But where she
seemed the least bit shy on the sub
ject she was not embarrassed by hav-
ing the question put to her point
blank. This apparently was quite re-
lief for a good many suffragettes, but
the leaders among them, the ones
who do the talking for publication,
were miffed and peeved
1t is ridiculous and absurd they de-
klared-this molly coddling of wO-
men. The sooner men learn that wo-
men are human beings endowed
with minds of their own and capable
of taking care of themselves, the soon
| er Will some or the problems OF So
ciety be solved, they declared with We
hemence. Women no longer will sub
nit to be coddled and protected by
the male of the species, they further
| asserted Any woman who objects to
filling her age ought not to be allow
TO vote, ETC., etc.

u. S. GIVES GEORGIA
MANY MOTOR TRUCKS
Several Million Dollars in Equipment
Furnished State for Road Con-
strucion-Exceeds First
Announcement.

Atlanta, May 27.-Instead Of getting
one million dollars worth Of motor
trucks and other equipment for road
construction from the federal govern
ment. as first announced, it now ap-
pears that Georgia will get several
million dollars worth.
Notice has just been received by
Judge T. <. Patterson, chairman OF
the State Highway Department, that
the federal government holds in readi-
ness for shipment to Georgia counties
two hundred and seven automobile
trucks conservatively valued at $780,
600. and while this is only the first
allotment to Georgia. The trucks will
be sent to the counties to which they
are assigned by the state highway au-
thorities. Applications to cover the
entire lot are already on file. The
counties will pay the freight on the
trucks from shipping points to desti-
nations. The trucks are stored at va
rious mechanical repaid units, such as
Camp Jesup in Atlanta.
The sudden termination of the war
found the federal government in pos
session of millions of dollars worth
Of equipment which could be used in
times of peace. This equipment was
bought with public money raised by
taxation and the sale of bonds. 1t will
now go back to the public by distri-
button among the several states for
road building purposes.

"Stop that" George shouted, and
furiously withdrew his foot. "For

whose habitual expression of appre-

ated. He climbed up after her, George

Just the thing for his mother to call
Morgan "Eugene;" the resentment of
the previous night came upon George
again. Meanwhile his mother and
Morgan continued their talk; but he
could no longer hear what they said;
the noise of the car and his uncle's
songful mood prevented. He marked
how animated Isabel seemed; IL was
not strange to see his mother so gay,

Our soldiers had been smelling it

mountain climbs, the hairpin curves,
the slippery slopes that began on
this side of the border, there were
prophecies of it. But they didn't
expect it to be as tough as it was.
Staff officers were climbing out OF
the leather cushions into the mud
to push. The main road between
Speicher and Birresborn that
stacked up on the maps with the
main roads of France were mud
holes. They looked like the be
FORE photographs in advertisements
OF paving material. The edges were
miles of sticky strawberry jam, with
no limit to its depth. The two deep
ruts down the middle made by the
wagons of the, retreating German
army were snares and delusions
Worried truck drivers and harassed
staff chauffeurs picked these ruts
instinctively, as locomotive picks
the rails; within 200 yards their only
conceivable salvation had trippe6
hem. The ruts were too deep;
sometimes the wheels of lighter cars
were clear of the bottoms; the heav-
Ter cars were mortised-a d-and-tenoned
in the roadbed.

curved and climbed, and at least
one edge of most Of them was also
