charter recently granted in the SD

This power will be furnished from
the plant of the Congratulations

TheTeharter was granted the South

$4,000, with privilege Of increasing
this to 100000. The headquar-

The South Georgia Public Service

The South Georgia Public Service
Company holds options on the plant
Of the Americas Lighting Company,
at Americas, and on the plants at Tiff

gia Public Service Company. While
no advice has been received that The
company has exercised its options,
steps are beng taken to pave the way
thereto, securing permission for as
slgpments, transfers., etc.
At both Americas and Cordelc the
property occupied by the light plants
IS leased and permission for trans

This condition does not exist ct Tiff

big exterior scenes were made at

as the biggest cattle ranch in that
state 1t consists of 10000 acres Of

While the change probably means that
hydro-eIectric current will be brought
to Triton, no plans have been made
which contemplate immediate steps IN
that direction. If the options held
by the South Georgia Public Service
Company are exercised, it will mean
the immediate and absolute change in
ownership Of the plants at Americue,
Triton and Coraele. 1t will not mean
a reorganization, but that the South
ern Utilities Company, which owns
the Georgia Public Service Company,
will not own the plants at Triton and

WANT FERRY Line TO
HEART OF BALTIMORE
Eastern Shoremen Not Satisfied
With Present Service Across
The Chesapeake.

| Effort is being made to incorporate
the defunct Peninsula Ferry Com
pany, formerly operating between
Baltimore, Queenstown, and Love
Point, with the Baltimore and Eastern
Shore Ferry Line, operating between
Bay Shore and Rock Hall, the latter
Ferry to extend it's service to Queens
town.
The assets of the Peninsula Com
pany have been purchased by Sidney
K. Salmson, who claims the State Sub
sidy in his purchase. His purpose is
to merge the Peninsula line with the
Bay Shore line.
A delegation Of Eastern Shoremen
appeared before the Utilities Board
this week in opposition to Mr.. Salm-
sons plan. State Senator Lawrence
Is. Towers, of Caroline county, was
spokesman for this delegation. He
states that his people were willing to
wait ten years if necessary, for a fer
ry line to the "heart of Baltimore"
Unless they could get this they desir-
ed no service at all.
The objection to Bay Shore route
is that passengers and freight are
landed at a point from which it re-
Quires an hour or more to reach the
business part of Baltimore, transpor-
tation being either by auto or trolley.
Furthermore, by reason Of bar at
Rock HAIL, the ferry boat requires
rearly two hours to make the trip
from Rock Hall to Bay Shore.
An organization is now in view to
be formed by interests identified with
the M. D. & Va, and the B. C. & A.,
railways, to put on a ferry service a.
dapted to the handling of passengers,
freight and motor vehicles, between
Baltimore Love Point, and Queens
town.
This company will take over the
ferry service now operated by the
Maryland, Delaware and Virginia
Company between Love Point and
Baltimore, and will extend the same
ito Queenstown.
This plan would seem to be the best
for all parties concerned as it is more
central and lands its business in the
heart of the city, rather than 80 miles
away.

Levin w. Benson, one of Worcester
county's most prominent citizens die.]
at his home in Pitts Greek at
o'clock Tuesday of last week after
an illness of several days.
Although not expected, because O!
failing health for some time, news OF
his death spread rapidly through the
vicinity. and was a shock to his many
friends. Mr.. Benson was 70 years OF
age.
MIR. Benson was one of Worceste,
county's most prominent men and best
citizens, especially so in that part OF
the county where he resided.
For many years he was engaged in
farming. In fact the most of his life
he was actively engaged in that occu-
patton.
Mr.. Benson was not only well
known but was highly respected by a
large circle of friends. He was a man
Of fine principles, strong in character
and always dared to express himself
under all conditions.
He was born and had lived in the
county most of his life, and by his
kind neighborly spirit, honesty in his
dealings with his fellowman and de-
pertinent generally had won the con-
fidence of all whose good fortune it
was to come in contact with him.
The writer has known him intimate
" and a better, hore CHEEKY congenial
friend, and consistent gentleman new
er lived.
By his strong personality, and con-
versational gift, coupled with his
CHEEKY and affable manner, he drew
all whom he came in contact with.
Today we mourn his loss but the
life and character Of Mr.. Benson will
live forever in the memory of the peo-
pie of Pitts Creek, and this county fol
many years to come.
Besides widow he is survived by
two children: a son and daughter
They indeed have the sympathy OF
this community in the great bereave-
nent through which they have been
called to pass.
The funeral occurred Wednesday
afternoon at Pitts Creek Baptist
Church, conducted by Rev. D. M. Lit
Teton, a former pastor. Interment
was made in the Pitts Creek cemetery

URGE BIRTH RATE
/. LIMIT UPON POOR
Professors Say College Men
and Women Already Prac-
tice Needed Restraint.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated frese.
CHICAGO, October 31.-Prof. E. A.
Ross of the University of Wisconsin
last night told the Middle Western
States Birth Control Conference, In
session here that a Harvard graduate
has on the average less than one
son, a woman college graduate av-
erages about half a daughter, Amer-
can families of moderate means av-
erage three children and parents who
constantly appeal to charity for sup
port have families averaging six chill
dren.
The birth rate among people who
send their children to college is on
the decline, he said. Inquiries among
$40 college women disclosed they
were members of families averaging
315 children: their parents. of fam
lilies containing five children. and
their grandparents, of families av-
eraging more than six children, Prof.
Ross said.
"One- quarter of the population of
the United States produces as many
children as the remaining three-quar-
ters," declared Prof. Ross. In this
quarter are the charity cases, the
feeble minded and often the Grim
inals. 1t is this fact that the least
desirable are reproducing from two
to three times as fast as the de-
sirable that makes us fear for the
safety of the world"
Birth control, he asserted, would
help restore the balance.
The human family, at the present
rate, will redouble in sixty years." he
said. In zoo years there will be ten
times the present population. Even
If fed by a fall of heavenly mamma
mankind would be so crowded that
life would not be worth living.
"Curtailment of the family must
come or pressure of numbers will
wipe out all the ease, comfort and
fineness in the world"
Wars, famine and pestilence are
the inevitable consequences of over
population" declared Prof. E. NJ. East
of Harvard.
