THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1917.
Every Star on the Flag Stands
for a Man Who Has Entered
the Service of His Country
for the Cause of Liberty
The Journal's service flag, showing
how many men this paper has sent to
I the service of their country, flies today
i from the front of The Journal building.
The flag is red, with white union on
which are sewn black stars, one star
for each man who has gone to war
There are fifty stars on The Journal’s
flag, with room for more.
These flags are flying everywhere in
northern and eastern cities, and The
Journal hopes that other Atlanta firms
will soon fly theirs. Many of them have
sent anywhere from ten to a hundred
men to the colors and there is no bet
ter way to honor them than by flying
a service flag.
The flag can be’ bought for no great
sum, or it can easily be made. Space
may be left for additional stars, and. if
wished, the stars may be blue instead
of black, although black is the prevail
ing color.
Many residences fly service flags, in
cases where homes have sent one or
more sons to the colors. '
Here are the fifty represented by the
stars on The Journal’s flag.

8 Bushels of Potatoes
For Every Alabamian
Is Farmers’ Offering
(Specia! Dispatch to The Journa |
MONTGOMERY, Ala., Oct 10.—If Ala-
I Lama is forced to consume its supply
of sweet potatoes within the state, every
person who treads the highways of the
commonwealth must eat eight bushels.
This conclusion has been reached by
James A. Wade, state commissioner of
agriculture. Several months ago a
preacher of diversification said “plant
sweet potatoes.’’ Every farmer did. As
a result this state has gathered 16,000,-
000 bushels. There are only 2.000,000
people in the state and this gives each
person eight bushels.
Much of the crop will be shipped,
while the agricultural department is
hoping persons who have been consum
ing foodstuffs that may be cared for in
shipment will use the potatoes, as they
do not keep for many weeks.

GEORGIA BOYS AT
MILLS REAL VETS
OF RAINBOW UNIT
(Continued from Fag* 1.)
City, but from Hempstead, Mineola. Far
Rockaway and Oyster Bay.
It may be slightly overstating the
case to say that the treatment accord
ed the Georgians is typical of that
shown other units. If Anything, the
Crackers have fared better than most
of the others, and there's a reason.
LIKE SOUTHERN GENTLEMEN.
Not since Major Cooper D. Winn. Jr.,
marched his battalion from the railway
station to the place assigned them in
the big encampment has the One Hun
dred and Fifty-first had a guard house.
That is to say. not a single member of
the Georgia machine gun battalion has
been under arrest for a serious infrac
tion of military discipline. They have
conducted themselves as gentlemen, and
have won the admiration and respect not
only of local residents but of their com
rades in other divisional units.
Os course, you understand, there have
been minor infractions of the regulations
now and then. Ocasionally an enlisted
man has overstayed his leave, and on
one rare occasion several passed the
night in New York City without permis
sion. But Major Winn didn't put them
In the guard house. He assessed fines,
and let it be knotfn that it would be
his policy to fine the men, rather than
imprison them.
“We’ve had no serious offenses, and
only a few minor infractions," he ex
plained. “What’s the sense in stigma
tizing a worthy fellow by a guard house
sentence, and thus deprive him of neces
sary military training, when better re
sults may be accomplished by assess
ing a fine."
The plan has worked admirably. The
soldiers are not keen to separate with
their money without getting value re
ceived. and a few hours in New York
isn’t worth what it costs, more especial
ly when It isn’t difficult to secure the
leave.
When it Is considered that the camp
of the Rainbow division is within the
shadow of the great metropolis, with
the lure of its white lights, excitement
and temptation. It is little short of mar
vellous that the discipline has been so
wonderful.
The Georgia battalion is composed of
the real veterans of the division. No
other units in the command has been so
long in continuous service. The Geor
gians have been actually in- the federal
service for over sixteen months. They
were among the few who were not mus
tered out upon their return from the
Mexican border.
During the sixteen months the men
have been in the service they have
learned all about soldiering. They have
respect for their uniform, respect for
themselves and a just pride in maintain
ing the excellent record that Is theirs.
They appreciate, moreover, the consider
ate treatment they have received from
their officers, and all ofthem are anx
ious to co-operate Kith their superiors
COMPLEXION OF COMPANY. ’
No command in the Rainbow division
is composed of company unit richer
in tradition than the Georgia machine
gun battalion. While practically every
section of Georgia is represented in the
battalion. Its frame work Is composed
of companies B. C and F of the Second
regiment, Georgian antlonal guard, for
merly commanded by General 'Walter
Harris, of Macon.
Company B. originally was the Macon
Volunteers; company C. the Floyd Ri
fles; and company F, the Macon Huz
zars. Each has a history of many years’
standing. The Macon Volunteers were
organized in 1823. and fought, with dis
tinction through the Mexican, the Civil
and the Spanish-American wars. The
Floyd Rifles, organized in 1848. has a
record little less lengthy “nd just as re
spected The Huzzars were organized in
1889, and won a reputation in the Span
ish-American war.
In the battalion as now constituted,
former company F has become company
A, while companies B and C have kept
their former alphabetical designation,
thus:
A company was the Macon Huzzars.
B company was the Macon Volunteers.
C. company was the Floyd Rifles.
It is well enough to pin these designa
tions in your hat. for companies A. B
and C, of the One Hundred and Fifty
first machine gun battalion are going to
distinguish themselves in France, and
It will be interesting to recall their his
tory.

AT CITY HOTELS
IN FOOD ECONOMY
Atlanta Co-operating With
Herbert Hoover in Effort to
Save Meat for Soldiers
Fighting Against the Kaiser
There was no planked steak, roast
beef or the like to be had 4n Atlanta
hotels Tuesday.
No. siree! The first of the beefless
days had arrived and, true to their
agreements, the leading hotels and res
taurants eliminated from their menus
beef in all forms.
Even .the man who had pruned him
self for a hot beef 6tew to brace him
against the chill air was doomed to dis
appointment. Even tfie stew was not
to be had.
This committee, under the chairman
ship of William R. Seeker, of the Ansley
hotel, has brought about a beefless day
with les sthan a week’s planning. As
sisting Mr. Seeker were A. R. Evans,
of the Winecoff, and H. A. Tisdel, of
the Aragon. They have personally In
terviewed and secured pledges of sup

Antitoxin Is Fatal to
Two Athens Children
ATHENS. Ga., Oct. 10.—Two deaths
followed in a few minutes after physi
cians here Tuesday administered diph
theria antitoxin. Miss Evelyn Keese.
sixteen years old, only daughter of John
Keese. merchant, died about 11:30—just
after her case was pronounced diphthe
ria. the residence had been quarantined
and the antitoxin administered. . At
almost the same hour the sixteen
months-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. P.
C. Randolph died under almost Identical
circumstances, another physician at

department.
