HABERSHAM COUNTY HAS
SHIPPED 800 CARS APPLES

Atlanta, Nov. 8.-Habersham coun-
ty, it was announced here, has ship
ped this year three hundred car
loads of peaches and three hundred
carloads of apples, for which the
growers received one million dol
lars. 1t is stated that the county
has very limited amount of its till
able land in peaches and apples; in
fact, it is doubted if there is ten per
cent of the area of Habersham now
represented in apples and peach or.
chards of that county.
State horticulturists here make the
statement that the production of
fruit in Haberham and other noun
tain counties is yet in it's infancy
Just what the industry in all that
section will be in the years to come
remains to be seen. 1t is clearly
shown, however, from reports re
ceived at the state capitol, that the
industry will be greatly increased
The North Georgia apple, growers
believe, will in few years take
equal rank with Georgia peaches il
the markets of the world.

MASTERS HARRIS
IN WAYCR0Ss JAIL
Negro Who Killed His Wife
Here Last Sunday is Caught
Through Efforts of Chief of
Police Register.

Through the efforts Of Chief of
Police ]. E. Register, Masters Harris,
negro who killed his wife out near
the l. street park some time late Sun
day afternoon or early evening, has
been captured and will be brought
back to Brunswick today. He was
taken in Waycross where Chief Reg
lister had advised officers that he
would go after committing the ter
rible murder here.
1t will be remembered that Ro
bertha Harris, his wife, young
woman about twenty years of age,
was found last Sunday morning with
her throat cut from ear to ear and
while members of a coroner's jury
did not return a verdict saying that
the husband had done the killing,
this seemed to be the opinion of all
and especially is this true when Har
ris could not be located, he having
skipped out before the body was
found.
Chief Register tipped off the Way
cross officers and his efforts have
been rewarded by landing a person
charged with one of the worst crimes
ever committed in Brunswick.

is ENDORSED BY
AMERICAN LEGION
GOULD EXPRESSES
HIMSELF AND is STRONGLY
IN FAVOR OF ASSISTING

Mrs. w. S. Nathan, chairman of
the American Red Cross roll call,
has received the following letter from
Commander ]. d. Gould, Jr., of the
local post of the American Legion:
Dear Mrs. Nathan: On the oc
casion of the opening of the annual
Red Cross Roll Call, feel it privi
lege to commend this great Ameri-
can institution upon the very essent-
ial work it is doing for our whole
country, wherever, and whenever
disaster and human suffering prevail
Particularly do / have deep feel
ing of gratitude to the Red Cross for
the very necessary and helpful as
sistance that they are daily giving
the ex-service men of our country.
Because of this organizations
sincere and whole hearted cd-opara-
ton, the American Legion has been
enabled to accomplish much for the
nations crippled war veterans that
otherwise would have been impossi-
BILE.
In all of our activities for the aid
of the manned and sick ex-service
men, the Red Cross has borne
large part of the load, and their work
ers stationed at all of the U. S. vet
Grams hospitals have been the means
of Frightening and cheering the long
and dreary hours of many of these
ex-soldiers, besides rendering them
many other needful services.
when we consider these things,
and realize what large part the
Red Cross plays in the lives of so
many of our deserving people, it
seems only proper that we should all
support this institution to the ut
most.
81 wish you much success in your
efforts for the Red Cross"

To YOUNG JEW
Navy Department to Punish
Editors Of Annapolis Senior
Year Book.

Acting Secretary of Navy Roose-
welt today received from Admiral
Wilson, commandant of the United
States Naval Academy, q report on
the alleged sighting OF Leonard
Kaplan, a Jewish student, in the
year book of the academy.
Roosevelt has the report under
adyisement, and II was understood
that he would order that the stu
dents in charge OF the book be sub
jected to further displinary action
at the hands Of the Annapolis au-
thorities.
Admiral Wilson, superintendent
of the Naval Academy. conferred
with Acting Secretary Roosevelt
yesterday, and was instructed TO
submit in writing a detailed report
on the matter.
1t was stated by Admiral Wilson
that the unfair treatment Of kaplan
was not inspired by racial prejudice.
but was the result OF personal
animus on the part of some Of the
members Off the class toward the
young Jew.
Responsibility for the affair is
placed on J. l.. Olmsted. editor-in.
chief OF THE Lucky Bag" under
whose direction and supervision the
book was made up. Admiral Wilson
has withdrawn letter Of com
mendation which he had addressed
to Olmstead before the Kaplan af-
fair was brought officially to his
notice.
II is understood that the members
Of the governing board Of the class
publica ton were not agreed on the
proposal to vent the spleen Of in
dividuals on Kaplan through the
medium Of the class publica ton, but
the fact that II is not known how
the individual members Of the board
voted has added TO the difficulty Of
singing out the guilty ones for
separate reprimand.
