Oglethorpe Lumber;
Negro Migration;
Mineral Wealth
BY T. LARRY GANTT
The counties below Athens and
tributary to our city are said to
contain more timber than any
part of the south. The vast pine
forests in South Georgia and
other states have been exhausted,
but the smaller and varied timbers
in. this section, off the lines of
railways, were left undisturbed,
and is now coming into use. And
at a most opportune time, for it
will enable our farmers to keep
going while combatting the boll
weevil. Some of the largest and
most valuable bodies of this tim
ber are in Oglethorpe county, and
much of it is controlled by citi
zens of Athens.
Messrs. King Howard, J. J.
Wilkins and J. F. Shehane with
other parties have orgainzed a
, company to put this timber on
market. I asked Mr. Howard
about their company and if they
intended to build the railroad ex
tension from Lexington to the
Flatwoods, Mr. Howard said they
would go to work and establish a
chain of saw mills, dry kiln and
plan to get out and market the
lumber, but it takes time and
money to build railroads and ho
did not know what they would do
about that part of the program;
but as soon,, as their machinery
arrived they would put up a
chain of lumber plants, convenient
to their timber belts. They mean
business and were anxious to get
to work.
A gentleman, from Oglethorpe
tells me that farmers in the lower
part of his county seem to have
abandoned all ideas of planting
a crop and gone wild over lum
ber. The new business will put
much money in circulation and of
course help trade in Athens.
It is now an established fact
that those threatening notices
stuck up ordering negroes to
leave are not the work of any* na
tive white men 6r the Ku-Klux
but 65 emigration agents and oth-
-sg.Mgre tools. .A short time since
these notices to negroes w*rt
stuck up into colored settlement!
beyond BarberviUe, but they did
not have the desired effect for
the darkies paid no .heed to them.
But these fellows have now thans-
fered their activities to Oglethorpe
. county, and it is said they have
the colored people thoroughly tor*
rorized. The negroes have been
made ,to believe that notices have
been stuck up in Lexington warn
ing all negroes that they must be
out of the county by March 1st, or
take the consequences. A gentle
man from Lexington tells that this
canard was believed by practic-

COUNTY
permanent organization to
fight tuberculosis in Clarke coun
ty was perfected Thursday.
The organization will be known
as the “Auti-Tuberculosis Com
mittee of the Clarke County Com
munity Council.” Mra. W. E.
Broach was elected chairman, Mra.
E. R. Hodgson, Jr., vice chairman,
Mrs. H. W. Dews, secretary, C. H.
Phinizy, treasurer and Hugh
Gordon, Jr., auditor.
One ye/r ago the Community,
Council launched a movement to
ploy a nurse for the purpose of
fighting tuberculosis in Clarke. It
was found that ten per cent of the
deaths In the county each year are
caused by tuberculosis. It was al
so found that many victims of the
malady could-be saved from death
if an expert nurse could - be em
ployed to instruct those with tu
bercular tendencies how to live in
such a way as to check the prog
ress of the disease.
MONEY 19 ‘ '
RAISED
Two months ago Christmas ,
seals, were sold and several hun- '
dred dollars raised with which to
wage the campaign. Since that
time the city and county govern
ing boards have appropriated a
total of $700, which, added to the
mcney already subscribed, will be
sufficient to employ a nurse for
one year.
Announcement was made Thurs
day that Dr. D. H. Dupree, chair
man of the Clarke County Board
of Health, is in communication
with two nurses who are experts
in treating tubercular patients,
and employment of a nurse is ex-
ana employment of a nurse is ex
pected within the next few weeks.
The nurse employed will give
her entire time to the treatment
and care of tuberculosis patients
and It IS expected by this move to
greatly reduce the ravages of tho
disease in this .county.
Harry Stillwell Edward*, the 'not
ed Georgia,author, will deliver a
lecture here the first 'week in
March. The proceeds from the'lec
ture will be used in the. antt-th-

DUSSHLDORF — (By the Asso

Wupper valley-where the French
have occupied several textile
towns, indicate that the temper of
the civilian population is uncer
tain. At Elberfleld which is sur
rounded by a troop cordon, the peo
pie are highly excited, although
the city Itself is not .occupied.
Agents of the "committee for
defense and reprisals in the Ruhr*
are said to be operating among
the citizens.
That the. French are prepared
to take drastic measures to pre

order notifying the Ruhr Germans

railroad property will be sentenced
