Large Milk Shipments
Pass Through Georgia

Atlanta, Ga.-From reports of the
railroads and express companies,
large shipments of milk pass through
Georgia daily from northern states.
If the states of the north can produce
milk and ship to Florida, certainly the
people of this state could do so and
create a profitable industry, it was
pointed out here today by officials of
the Georgia Department of Agricul-
ture. The agricultural department
officials state that Georgia is fav-
ored state in climate, affording all
year-round pasturage and accessible
for delivery into Florida. Milk, it
was stated, could be produced and
sold much cheaper in this state than
milk produced in states farther north
where Severe winters are common.
While the dairy industry IN this
state has grown to be quite an in
dustry. agricultural department Off
cials show, yet. they assert, there is
room for improvement and increased
production which would soon become
one of the states chief industries.
Both the agricultural department
and the State College of Agriculture
have accomplished great deal in en-
couraging the dairying industry, it
was stated here.

service of the decedent has been duly
verified. Requests are received for
thousands of headstones annually,
and considerable time is required to
accurately list the names and COM
plete the records. General Hart es-
pecially urges that no duplicated re-
quest be made, as this only serves to
ball up" the records and delay ac-
ton on the original request"
The only procedure to obtain free
burial in a National Cemetery is to
produce to the Superintendent there
of the honorable discharge of the vet
eran and proof that the body is that
of the veteran. The only man who is
not entitled to free headstone and
free burial is the man who served be-
tween wars only and he is then en-
titled to such on proof of indigency.

IN CONFIDENCE
Can | Make a Rich
Girl Happy?
Dear Miss Flo:

Dear Miss Flo:
am very much in love with girl,
who, am quite sure, loves me, but |
hesitate to ask her to marry me, or
even express my sentiments, for sew
eral reasons. First of all, socially,
her position is far above mine, and
I'm afraid if did tell her of my love
for her, she might think | had her
fathers money in mind, or the social
position l might attain were she. my
wife. She is the daughter of my en-
ployer, who is very wealthy. | met
her in the office one day, and her
father asked me to take her to lunch.
That was the beginning. Frankly,
she hasn't discouraged me. She has,
in fact, almost encouraged me by in
viting me to her home, motoring and
parties. She has always been accus-
toned to living luxuriously and hav-
ing everything she wanted; which, of
course, my salary would not afford.
Do you think that if we were married
she would be happy as poor mans
wife? CARL.

As to whether the young lady in
question would be happy married to
comparatively poor man, l cannot
say. 1t depends entirely upon her
character, whether she is idealistic or
realistic, practical or sentimental.
If she is the kind of a girl who
thinks more of clothes than she does
of good husband-if she is carabet
crazy, and is never happy unless she
is rushing from place to place every
evening-then she would be very mis-
cradle and dissatisfied as poor
mans wife-and would make the hus-
band curse the day he married her.
Fortunately, though, the modern
girl is a rather business-like person.
She knows what things cost and how
far money Will go and the luxury-lov-
ing young woman of today is apt to
save the young mar from making the
mistake of marrying Frer-if she
knows he cannot afford it. She
gently and firmly declines to share
his humble lot.
But, on the other hand, there are
many girls, the daughters of rich and
indulgent fathers, accustomed to all
that money can buy, who willingly
put love above fine clothes and jewels
and cars, and who are perfectly WILL
ing and happy to be poor mans
wife. She has learned the value of
riches and has found that her happi-
ness is not bound up i'm material
things. 1t would not make such a
girl unhappy not to have all the
things to which she has been ACCUSE
tomed-she would rather have love in
a cottage than a palace with a man
to whom she was Indifferent.
The idea that when young man
marries he should be able to support
his wife in the style in which she has
been accustomed to live is all wrong. |
1t is demanding that he start where
her father leaves off, and that is ask
ing too much of him.
So, if you really and truly love the
girl-if you find her sweet and COM
panionable-if you are sure you are
capable of repaying her, with love
and consideration throughout the
years, for having given up the ma
terial things of life for you-pop the |
question and see where you stand
with her. Youth and romance have
always gone hand in hand-they are
natural companions-and no luxury
in the world can substitute if they
miss each other.

SEE "HAMS" DRIVEN
FROM RADIO FIELD
Amateur Stations Showing Slight
Decrease Based on Licenses Is
sued in Past Fiscal Year.

The removal from the radio field OF
a number of hams" and the shutting
up Of their stations is indicated in
the slight decrease, reported today of
amateur radio stations licensed In the
United States during the past fiscal
year. The number has been reduced
from 15,545 to 1911, but the reduc
ton does not indicate a lack of IN
terest in the experimental and pro-
gressive work Of the amateur.
Many Of the amateurs have given
up their plants in favor of broad
casting activities, and several hun
dred of them now are employed at
the big stations. Others have aban-
doned their transmitters in order to
concentrate on the reception of
broadcasting activities, and still
others have joined groups which now
are listed as club or school stations.
According to officials of the ANA
teur Radio Relay League, in whose
membership are nearly all Of the
more serious Of the hams" the anna
teurs of today are doing much more
constructive work than formerly
when the reception and transmission
of messages were mere fads. The
program Of short wave work planned
by the amateurs for the Winter, and
their cooperation with the United
States Army in handling official COM
munications, as scheme of a ma
tional radio reserve force Is expected
to stimulate the interest in the anna

NO PEACE IS SEEN

Although the warning Washington

marily suspended as a result of their

They are to function independently
however, and not as units Of a grand

stipulated that the 10 chapters would
function separately with the general
body, but that the division Of the

established as such until the chapters
here had definitely demonstrated that

stored. There is no prospect Of such
reconciliation, even in the distant fu-
ture, Mrs. Ludlow declared
Three new chapters. formed under

MED that it involved any violation Of
the rights of corporations to privacy
in certain Of their affairs and asserted
that the commission had not entered
upon "a fishing expedition"
Counsel for the corporations today
insisted that the scope of the inquiry
directed by the commission was in
violation Of their constitutional rights,
particularly with reference to pro-
posed publicity Of information con-
cerning which he insisted the corpora
tions were entitled to privacy. The
information sought concerning out
put, capacity and production costs
was not public property, he asserted,
