ANSLEY'S STORE
CELEBRATES ITS
5OTH BIRTHDAY

One of the city's best known bust
ness institutions begins tomorrow the
celebration of its fiftieth anniversary
The institution is Ansley's store, own
ed and operated by Chas. L. Ansley
one of the most reliable dry goods and
furnishings houses in Georgia.
The founder of the business was the
late J. A. Kendrick, who began on the
same corner in 1869 A few years
thereafter he admitted to partnership
his son-in-law Thornton Wheatley.
The business up to 1873 was Kendrick
& Wheatley, then Thornton Wheat
ley succeeded as sole owner. under
which name it was continued until
1890. when it was changed to Wheat
ley & -Ansley, Thornton Wheatley re-
firing from the active interest in the
business, retaining only his financial
interest. Chas L. Ansley being the
active member of the firm. This part
nership was continued for about fiji
teen years, when the firm was again
changed in 1905, Mr.. Ansley succeed
ing as sole proprietor.
During these years it has been the
policy of the firm to deal in first class
merchandise and to conduct a bust
ness that is a credit to themselves,
as well as the community, and where
everybody could come and trade with
a feeling of assurance that whatever
they bought was always as
represented.
For 20 years Mr. AnsIey has been
the head of this institution and for
years he was connected with it as
an employee.
Il came here as a boy without any
thing whatever" he said Saturday,
and while I have not achieved any
great degree of success, at the same
time I want to take this occasion to
thank not only the good citizens Of
Americas and Sumter county, but also
the people of Schley, Stewart, Web
ster Macon. Dooly and other counties
adjacent for the liberal patronage they
have extended me in the past and to
say to them that I appreciate what
they have done for me more than
words can express. l have tried to
merit their patronage on clean. square
dealings. and in soliciting their bust
ness for the future I assure them that
we shall never leave any stone I'M
turned to make their business rela-
tions with us satisfactory in every
particular
In a celebration of this fftieth
anniversary we are going to give the
people the greatest buying opportunity
that has been presented to the min a
long. long time On a great many
things it will not be a question of
price. There are many things we
want to move regardless of cost or
former prices.
''This sale will be for ten days. All
goods will be sold for spot cash only
no approvals-no eXchanges-in any
department.
Price bulletins will be posted in
the store affecting each department
While everything in the store will be
offered at special reductions, at the
same time during the sale different
departments will offer on certain days
special attractions, to which we will
call your attention"

OFFICER CHARGED 3
MACHINE GUN NESTS
IN SUCCESSION ALONE
Clubbed One German Over
Head With His Rifle, Then
Shot Him With Pistol
Bv A. E. GeIdhof

WASHINGTON, April 11.-First
Lieut.. Samuel Woodfill of Fit Thomas,
KY, was leading Company NJ of the
Goth Infantry into action against the
enemy at Cunel on October IL.
Suddenly the German machine
gun fire increased in intensity, and
threatened to hold up the advance of
the company.
Lieutenant Woodfill selected two
privates from the ranks and told
them: Follow me at a distance of
25 yards" Then he took a rifle, bold
ly stepped out ahead of the first line
directly under fire and walked toward
a machine gun nest.
Leaving the two soldiers in front of
the gun, Woodfill worked his way
around it's flank, and got within ten
yards of the nest At that point the
gun ceased firing, and four Germans
jumped up from the trench. Lieu
tenant Woodfill raised his rifle and
shot three of them in their tracks.
The fourth, an officer rushed at the
American officer brandishing his
pistol They were at close quarters,
and a hand-to-hand struggle ensued.
Lieutenant Woodfill dubbed his rifle
and banged the German over the head,
but he was a tough one, so the lieu
tenant drew his pistol and killed him.
Forward, company" yelled Wood
fill, and the advance was resumed.
It wasn't long, however. before they
encountered another machine gun en-
placement.
Follow me-" yelled Lieutenant
Woodfill, and he dashed ahead of his
line in the face of a deadly rain of
bullets from the nest.
Four boche faces appeared over the
edge of the pit The lieutenant shot
them one after another, and with con-
spicuous daring he jumped down and
captured the gun, together with three
more German soldiers who were man
ming it.
Again resuming the advance, the
dashing officer a few minutes later
demonstrated his bravery for third
time by charging another machine gun
position single-handed, killing five
men in the pit with his rifle.
Then he drew his pistol and started
to jump into the pit to mop up" AS
he did so two other gunners, only
few yards away, came to the rescue of
their comrades and turned their gun
on Woodfill
The latter crouched low and fired
his pistol at the Germans, but without
effect. Nearby lay a pickaxe with
which the retreating Germans had
been digging gun pits. lieutenant
Woodfin grabbed it and, jumping up.
leaped at those two Huns and killed
them both with the pick.
Inspired by his courageous example
and fired with this dauntless spirit.
the lieutenant's company. pressed on
to their objective through rain Of
shell fire and captured it.
Lieutenant Woodfill is one of the
winners of the Congressional Honor
Medal.
