Women Burn Stills
In Carrie Nation Style
AS a Rebuke to Men

MOULTRIE, Ga, July 16.-The
second moonshine still has been burn
ed by women in the northwestern
part Of Brooks county, according to
news received in Moultrie today. The
first still was set on fire several
days ago. But it seems that it was
but a short time before another was
set up to take it's place.
Men of the community, or rather
some of them, began drinking again,
and neglecting both their families
and their work. The woman who
suggested that the first still be burn
ed, called another meeting. When
the Carrie Nations" got together an
other fire was decided upon.
They went down to the point where
the still had previously been discov-
cred. A fire was built. The still,
a poplar box, was dismantled, and
all that was inflammable was laid
upon the blaze, piece by piece and
burned. The barrels in which the
beer had been fermented, were burn
ed also. Following the burning OF
the second still the women issued
a statement saying that all stump
outfits that are established hereafter
in that section will be similarly dealt

Metz Military Governor
And War Hero, Is Dead

PARIS, July 16-General L. E:
DeMaud 'Huy. military governor OF
Metz, died today.
General DeMaud 'Huy was born
In Lorraine. AS a child he witnessed
the capitulation Of Metz to the Ger
self to the task of aiding in the
restoration of his province to France.
At the age of fourteen he left Lor-
raine for France; entered the st. Cyr

ing on Morhange, having been obliged
TO retire, the division of General De-
Maud 'Huy was obliged to follow, but
retreated only under formal hyperion
orders.
His masterly> conduct of this re-
treat. and his successful execution
of orders to throw the Germans back
across the Mortagne, during the bat
tie of the Grand Couronne de Dancy,
earned him the command of the
Eighteenth army corps, at the head
of which he faced the Germans in
the battle of the Marine. On Sep
TENDER 20 he was called to the com
mand of the Tenth army. and be-
tween October and 10 his men
checked the attack of five German
corps and permitted the movements
Of the British troops toward the

to the sea.
Among the best known exploits of
the Tenth army while under General
DeMaud Hugs command was the
capture of the heights at Notre Dame
de la Lorette, dominating the indus
trial center of Lens.

MUCH P|CRIC ACID
ALLOTTED GEORGIA
The Atlanta Journal News Bureau,
623 Riggs Building.
BY THEODORE TTELER

WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE bu-
reau of public roads, department of
agriculture, has allotted to the state
of Georgia 1,0S0,00O pounds of picric
acid from the surplus stock of the
federal government, which may be
used for land clearing and road
building purposes in the state. The
allotment to the several states is
on the basis of cut-over lands and
it is found that Georgia has 2O,141,-
600 cut-oVer acres, the largest area
of any state in the union.
AllotmentS coming nearest are
Alabama, $4,000 pounds of acid, for
l4,785,O0O cut-over acres; Minnesota,
744,0 900 pounds of acid, with 1902, 600
cut-oVer acres; Mississippi, with $685.
600 pounds allotment and 13,2O3,O0O
$4,000 pounds of acid, and 13,246,-
600 acres. The department says this
plcric acid, left over from the war
is must useful in clearing stumps
and stones from agricultural lands
and is safe to use.
Senator William J. Harris receiv-
ed from the department today a pros
pectus of the program for delivery
of this acid to the states. The dis
tribution of the acid will be made
in each state through the State Ag-
r1cultural College, or if the college
is unable to act as cooperative agen-
cy with the federal bureau, through
each state, county or other agency
as may be agreed upon.
The cooperating agencies will Sc
cure individual orders for picric acid,
consolidate them into carload orders.
and forward the latter to the bureau
of public roads, in Washington. The
bureau will not receive individual
orders or remittances for picric acid,
and no landowner, whether corpora
ton, company or individual, will be
sold more than 1000 pounds CT picric
ACID. The material is at Sparta, Wis.
and Fort Wingate, N. M. The par
ties ordering the picric acid will be
required to pay the freight. Six cents
per pound is the cost by the govern
ment with permission for a contin-
gency charge of 1 cent per pound for
the cooperating agency to use in COW
er1ng the costs of handling. The
government estimates that the acid
Will mean an average net cost of ten
Inc minimum carload freight rate
from Sparta, Wis, to Savannah. for
the acid is 2.84 cents per pound, and
4.H cents per pound from Wingate,
n. M, to Savannah. Approximately
the same rate applies from the two
points to Charleston, S. &.
The bureau today expressed the
hope that the Georgia State Agri-
cultural College, at Athens, would be
the cooperating agency for Georgia.
1t was stated that the bureau had
asked for definite answer from the
college officials, and because of the
known interest, it is believed the
state college will assume the task of
distributing the picric acid in Geor-
gia.
Senator Harris said that the bu-
reau informed him these allotments
of acid to the various states will be
held for the use of the several states
until May 1, 1922, at which time any
allotments that have not been taken
up will be Cancelled and such distri-
button as seems most equitable will
be made of the remaining acid.

FAME At HOME IS
NOT IMPOSSIBLE

WHITEVILLE. Tenn.-Have you
old home town-in your search for
fame and contentment?
Have you felt the call of a big
city?
Why?
After all, the place where you
were born has all these things-just
waiting for the right one to come
along and seize them.
Rev. w. NJ. Norment proves this.
He was born at Whiteville. Tenn,
back in 1929. There were few people
in the little settlement in those days
day.
Yet Rev. Norment has never lived
more than mile from the place
where he was born. For ninety-two
years he has been a Whiteviller. And,
Of the ninety-two years he has been
preaching siXty-three-never missed
Sunday in the pulpit of the Cum
berland Presbyterian church.
Fame! He has acquired it in his
own home town. In point of serv-
ice he is the Oldest preacher in the
world.
Rev. Norment remembers well
some Of his old school day chums.
Many Of them went to the big cities.
Most Of them have died-unknown
outside the circle of their friends.
II have never aspired to be a big
preacher, nor to build I'D a rich con-
gregation. I have tried. instead. to
keep self and se1f-interest in the
background" says Rev. Norment.
ITO me. there is too much Of show,
too much of self in the pulpit and in
the pew today"
Many of the Whiteville folks who
Rev. NormenC christened, years ago,
are now in their graves
II. too. am growing a bit feeble"
says the preacher. but I am still
able to fill my pulpit"
As young man the old pastor
called on Andrew Jackson:
1t was short time before the
great general died" he says. st
made the trip with several other
boys of Cumberland university.
MT. Jackson expressed his appre-
citation for our call. He gave us a
tatherly talk upon the responsible
ties OF life. Of church and of state"
Rev. Norment is modest-but the
people of Whiteville are proud that
one or their own remained at home
and travelled the road to fame.

STOP! CALOMEL

It's mercury! Attacks the
bones, saIivates and

There's no reason why a person
should take sickening, salivating cal
omel when a few cents buys a large
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone-a
perfect substitute for calomel.
1t is a pleasant, vegetable liquid
which will start your liver just as
surely as calomel, but it doesn't
make you sick and can not salivate.
Children and grown folks can take
Dodso0's Liver Tone, because it is
perfectly harmless.
Calomel is dangerous drug. It
is mercury and attacks your bones.
Take a dose of nasty caIomel today
and you will feel weak sick and
nauseated tomorrow. Don't lose a
days work. Take a spoonful of bod
sons Liver Tone instead and you
will wake up feeling great, No more
biliousness, constipation, sluggish
ness, headache, coated tongue or
sour stomach. Your druggist says
if you don't find Dodson's Liver
Tone acts better than horrible CAL

Mini1nizes Graft
At Ellis Island

NEW YORK, July 16-1mmigra-
ton Commissioner Frederick A. Wal
lis today declared that he had been
misquoted in the newspapers regard
ing graft at Ellis Island.
There is graft there" he said,
but it is small and not widespread.
The statements credited to me that
this graft amounts to 100000, are
ridiculous. I believe the employees
as a whole, are honost and true as
steel"
He added that he had no way of
estimating the amount of graft col
lected from aliens, but that most Of
it went to persons who had no Off
cial connection with Ellis Island.
He declared that graft had been
going on at the island for years and
that he was taking all steps possible
to apprehend the guilty parties.
