Oglethorpe Lady 92
Scoffs At Hardships
Of Present World War
Oglethorpe, Ga., Sept. 5. —She has
lived through four great wars, seen
women's fashions change from
koopskirts to shorts, witnessed the
the*te?epL>1re? tire ra<3io^t|ie itut#-,
mobile and the airplane and con
tinues to take an interest in the
vivid .happenings of the present. ;
Mrs. Mollie Williams was 92
years old in August. About her
were gathered many of her children
and her children's children. There
were great grandchildren three, too
among them, the tiniest ot all a
baby boy three months old. ; She
gees” but very little now, but her
hearing Is still good and she en
joys holding the baby on her lap.
Mrs,. Williams' pleasure lies in
her family. She was one of the 10
children and stepchildren of Thos.
H. Morgan of Hamburg, Ga. Ham
burg, where he was the first post
master, and later county tax col
lector, Is now a lost town. Only the
old Morgan home, with its letter
slot to catch the mail stands where
pnee was a busy little rural center.
Miss Mollie remembers when
Hamburg was a stage coach stop on
the Traveler's Rest to Buena Vista
route. She was only a small child
but she would run out with her lit
tle sisters to see the stage coach
draw up before the Hamburg hotel
(which was later moved to Ogle
thorpe and still stands) to see if
there were any pretty ladies or des
perate looking characters in the
coach. The ladies, in their hoop-
skirts took -up a great deal of room
she remembers.
She scoffs at the young peoples
compalints about the inconvenience
war time has brought and reminds
them that they have felt nothing
approaching the misery of the
times just after the War Between
the States.
Her father, during that war was
in charge of the Macon county
slaves who had been put to build
ing breastworks near Savannah,
She told of the joy her family felt
when her father's sister in gje
North, after the war sent them
warm clothing to outfit the entire
family and so erased any bitter
feeling that might have remained
among the kinfolk. She herself as
a girl spent two years ta school in
New York State. . .
Fifty-eight relatives and friends
of Miss Mollie's brought covered
dishes ; and met at. Mrs. Morgan
Williams' home where she stays re

and a former resident of Marion

prayer. J. E. Mathis, former super
intendent of schools at Americus
and a close friend of Mr. Wooten
spoke of the valuable services
which Mr. Wooten had rendered to
the community during his life
time.
The dedication speech was madei
by Wm. S. McMichael, one of the ‘
members of the bank, and the por
trait was unveiled by Miss Mary
Wooten, youngest daughter of the

1918; and serving in that capacity
until his death on April 15, 1942.

perception and unerring judgment
is credited in large the success of
the institution.

necessary to induct between 1,000,
000 and 1,500,000 married iri^ni. .
Maj. Gen. L. B. Hershey, selec
tive service director, gave this tes
tlmony before the Defense Migra
tion committee. He also said the
demands of the swiftly expanding
army for a steady flow of manpow
er necessitated inducting men suf
fering from veneral diseases.
“The nation is going from a
philosophy of abunadnee (In man
power) to one of scarcity," said
Hershey on the eve of the second
anniversary of the selective.service
system.
He told the committee:
1. The Army now is including
ten per cent of the eligible illit
erates in each induction station,
and would begin on Oct. 1 to take
inthose suffering from veneral dis
eases, probably on a basis of two
per cent of the nation's total.
2. In his opinion, “as a better
administrator than prophet,” mar
ried men with children could expect
to be called into service by the last
quarter of next year, and perhaps
earlier if the quotas of the armed
forces are increased.
3. “Eventually,” those in the 18
and 19 years old age bracket would
have to be called, and that step
would have to come "very soon” or
the large-scale induction of mar
ried men would be necessary.
Hershey told the committee that
a man's occupational skill—rather
than the number of his dependents
would become the major basis
for granting deferments from ser
Vice with the armed forces.

by the score and so many of them
were of great merit that deciding
the winners was a difficult job, the
judges said. ;
Mrs. Richardson's prize-winhing
suggestions are as follows:
When It's.Too Wet To Plow is an
Ideal time to—
1— Go around all fences and fix
down the places where the water
has washed under the fences, leav
ing an opening whereby your pigs

When ieeded.
3— To clear away from around
the barn, the accumulation of all
trash such as old pieces of boards,
shucks, etc. rLr i

small pigs.
5— To carry all corn cobs to the
house to build fires in the stove.

of all shattered corn and peas and
other things that will help keep
down weevils. (Keep a short handle
Bhovel a broom and a half bushel
pan in barn at all times.) ,, - ? !.
7— Tq clean out poultry houses,
scald and disinfect.
8. —To grease hogs against ticks
and lice.

12— To shear the mules and
horses.
13— To haul a deep covering of
pinestraw for each stable.
14— To wash all fertilizer sacks

Dallas, Texas, Sept. 5—A self-
described jilted lover who “went
!Jjpok, line and sinker” for the ob
Ject of his affections, wealthy 55
year-old Hubert Lubin sued today
to reover $25,925 in cash and gifts
he-claims he gave May Womack
32
- The Dallas and New York oil-man
charged he was led to believe Mrs.
Womack loved him because she
continlously told him he "was a
genius,' a fine dancer and that his
company was superbly entertaining
With/never a dull moment and that
he kept her in clouds all the time."
District Judge Claude McCallum
ordered Mrs. Womack, of Dallas to
appear Sept. 18 to show cause why
a receiver should not be appointed
to take over the property.
Mrs. Womack denied she ever had
promised to marry Lubin, but his
petition said she broke their en-
gagement in August with the ex
planation that she had decided to
merry a Chicago oil'man.
A former film producer credited

Cannon Stolen From
Memorial Mile Between
Ellavile And Americus
Americus, Ga., Sept. 15—The
World War cannon which has occu
pied a prominent spot at the south
end of the Memorial Mile, three
miles south of Americus on U. S.
Highway No. 19, since the memori
al was. built many years ago, has
been stolen, it was reported today.
The cannon apparently was taken
by someone who wanted to sell it
for scrap metal, Mrs. Howell Sim
mons, member of th Americus and
Sumter County Garden Club said
today. Mrs. Simmons said she had
planned to propose to the Garden
Club at Its next meeting that the
cannon be turned in jtor scrap.
Will give me more time to return
the affairs of the states govern
ment to the people.”
Mentioning the disaccrediting of
units in the University System Ar
nall said, “I'll have those difficul
ties corrected as quickly as I can-
The accrediting associations know
that Georgia has done its best—It
will be up to those associations
no\y."
Arnall said he had made no job
promises. Then he promised,
“whenever I find any state office-
holder—elective or appointive—act
ing wrongly, I shall expose him
publicly."
The attorney general said the
program he expected to put into
action would in the next four years
“clean up the government of Geor
gia but it may not clean up Geor
gia politics.” However, he added,
"but it will start that cleanup.”
-Arnall Will Seek to Curtail
Governor's Power
Atlanta,—If the new legislature
nominated in Wednesday's primary
carries out the campaign platform
Of Goyernor-Nominate Ellis Arnall
several major revisions will be ef
fected in the state's governmental
structure.
■The essence of Arnall's program
Is a decentralization of authority,
especially the powers now vested in
the governor's office. This is in line
with his pledge to destroy what he
called "dictatorship in Georgia.’
Stripping the governor of his cle
mency powers, both pardon and
parole, was dne of the attorney-gen
eral's proposals, This power, he
said,should be placed In "a board
whose duty ft will be to devote
its full time to an intelligent, sin
cere and careful study of all ap
plications for clemency,"
Efforts to divest the governor of
his pardoning power were made at
the last legislature. Instead, au *
thority was increased so that he had
final review of all paroles as well
as pardons.
Another of Arnall's planks calls
for depprlving the governor “of the
right to appropriate the people s
money and the restoration of this
constitutional right to the general
assembly."
The last appropriation r. measure
passed by the legislature was in
1937 and lt has been in effectever
since. The 1941 general - assembly,,
however granted the governor the
authority, under HB. No. 1, to trans
fer savings in, one department to
a This power to shift funds from
one agency to another has been
assailed by Arnall as an unconsti
tutional delegation of authority.
