PLAN TO EMPLOY ARMY AND
NAVY - PRISONERS ON ROADS
Atlanta, Ga.—Employment of the
army and navy prisoners In the con
struction of roads and highways for
military purposes is the plan pror
. ed by United Stptgfr-Seri&cur Hoke
w ~Smltfof* Georgia in a bill introduced
by him a few days ago.
The Sate of Georgia has employed
her convicts in public road construc
tion ever since the abolition of the
convict lease system, and wonderful
results have been accomplished. The
healthful outdoor work has proven
beneficial to the convicts, and the mi
leage of improved highways has been
tremendously increased.
A number of the cantonments
where troops are being trained are
suffering on account of inadequate
and Improper highway connections
with the railroads and'the main Ex
isting highways, ZhfS&tKl Senator
Str.i'.’n would authorize the war de
portment to employ the army and
navy prisoners in consructing good
roads in these places.
It was a warm evening, so. Unde
Dan went out to a lawn seat under toe
spreading branches of the great tree
that suggested the farm's dame of Oak
H11L Billie and Jimmie bad been lay
ing for him, so Unde Dan was cap
tured by the boys on short order. -
“Say, Unde Dsn,” Billie began. "We
had a red-hot argument at school yes
terday with Carl Newman. Carl said
that German schools were miles ahead
of our schools and that no one could
come up to the educated German. Well,
Jimmie got hot under the collar and
banded It back to him good and plenty.
Jimmie said If their education taught
them to torpedo Ludtanlas, sink hos
pital ships, murder hundreds of wom
en snd children, make 'slaves of
the Belgians, poison wells, destroy fruit
trees and commit all sorts of crimes,
then we did not want that kind of
education here. * What do you think
about It, Uncle Dan? I told Jimmie
you spent a lot of time In Europe and
knew all about schools, so give us your
opinion."
“Well,” replied Uncle Dim, deliber
ately, “the German schools are very
thorough j they furnish exceedingly val
uable and practical Instruction. The
Industrial training given there Is prob
ably the best to be found. The schools
as a whole, however, in my opinion,
Dr. Andrew M. Soule, Federal Food
Administrator for Georgia and Pres
ident of tke State College of Agricul
ture, calls upon progressive farmers
to attend the ten days’ meeting to
be held at the College in January.
Realizing that the demand for food
will be much greater next year than
this and that there must be radical
changes In some sections due to the
coming of Hie boll weevil and the
shortage of labor, the College Is offer
ing a number of short courses to In
clude practically- eveqy phase of Geor
gia farming.
In an effort to help the farmer solve
the labor problem thorp is offered a
course in farm machinery In which
preparation, seeding, harvesting and
storing machinery will be considered.
The various types of these machines
-on exhibition will serve as a basis
for the work. - Tractors t>f the most
approved type will be' on display and
will be studied.
Fruit growing, cattle breeding and
feeding, plant and anlmaT diseases,
swine production, poultry production
and forestry will be some of the cours
es that will be treated In an attractlvp
and interesting' way by specialists.
Several speakers of national Import
ance are expected to be present at the
meetings, though their names cannot
be announced at thls time.- They-KlV
The dog may be-man’s best friend
but tho sheep furnishes the wool that
keeps clothes on his back, besides
furnishing valuable foor for him. To
conserve mutton and wool the Food
Administration t wants every sheep

should be done.

the heart The alp} and trend'Is to
male the thdlvldaal blindly submis
sive to the Prussian plan of world do
minion ; they teach that It Is the des
tiny of Germany to rule the world, and
that to the glory nnd'adyance of Ger
many, In this plan, nil things must give
way; that the kaiser as head of tbe
state, can do no wrong If be carries
forward the plan of world control.
Some of the greatest teachers snd
preachers even defend and justify her
heartless crushing of Belgians and the
many other atrocious crimes she has
committed In this war. Thank God,
our American education reaches both
the head and tho heart. It Is an edu
cation with a soul, and we must main-
tain tho high Ideals we have fired. In
a word. In Germany, the people are
taught that they exist for the govern
ment, while here the government ex
ists to serve the people.”
“Jusi wait a minute,” Interrupted
Billie. Say that over again Slowly,' so
can write It down.”
Undo Dan, smilingly, compiled.
Billie exclaimed: “Now, we will hand
that nut out for Carl to crack.
Carl, you know,” continued BUllb,
‘has a very smart father who keeps
him postefl on tho German arguments.
Carl said our government was otfly
an experiment"anyway; that It would
not last twenty years, and that It
might burst up any old time. Jimmie
asked him If Germany was so mighty
good, why they did not go back there
to live.” 1
“Our government will go on forever,
won’t It, Uncle Danl”
“Now,” said Uncle Dan, “you are
raising a big question, and one that
has troubled me for years. Our gov
ernment Is still Id the experimental
stage; In fact, it Is the greatest ex
periment ever undertaken, andlfpop-

“Next, require that every foreigner

his Intention of becoming an American

sblp of our country, and that means he
must defend our flag upon equal terms
with our native born, sad If he Is not
willing to do this, he should be sent

WAR DRAIN ON TELEPHONE

Atlana, Ga.—Never before have
the telephone companies been forced
to meet such a difficult problem . as
that which confronts them now as the
result of the war, according to South
ern Bell officials in Atlanta. The
calling rate in southern cities has
alwas been the highest in the country
and now it is vastly increased. Mili
tary cantonments have taken enor
mous quantities of supplies and equip
ment. The draft has taken many
lineman nnd other employees. Ope
rators have left their switchboards to
enter oher lines of work.
