AMERICAN TROOPS
TO QUIT GERMANY.
Soys to Be Hurried Home as Soon
as Possible After the Peace
Treaty Is Signed—Every Ef
fort to Speed Up Demobiliza
tion.
Washington, May 2.—Determi
nation of President Wilson, indi
cated in press advices from Paris,
that no American troops shall con
tionue on German soil for a longer
period after the signing of the
peace treaty than may he neces
sary to embark them for home, is
borne out by present plans of the
war department which contem
plate the return of the entire
American expeditionary forces by
September. Because of this Gen
eral March, chief of staff, is mak
ing effort to speed up the demobil
ization in this country.
An official announcement issued to
day as to the accumulation of sur
plus clothing for the troops stated
that the estimates were based on
“troop withdrawal to be complet
ed in September.” The statement
also said that “if an army of oc
cupation is maintained after Sep
tember, a portion of this surplus
will be needed ”
This computation was taken to
reflect exactly the present infor
mation of the department as to
future troop movements. The
September date represents estima
tes by embarkation officials as to
the maximum possible speed in
withdrawing the entire force in
Europe, including the troops hold
ing the t'oblenze bridgehead sec
tor on the Rhine. If anything, of
fleers anticipate that the move
ment will be accelerated rather
than retarded. The schedule has
been exceeded recently and in in
creasing measure from week to
week.
450,000 Men Moving Monthly.
With an indicated monthly
movement of 450,000 men, the
best predictions of General March
and his aids bid fair, it was said,
to lie more than realized.
► General March returned today
from a personal inspection of de
mobilization centers in the south
eastern department, completing
the personal survey ho began with
Secretary linker before the latter
sailed for France. At each of the
camps visited the chief of staff
went over the demobilization ma
chinery with the camp comman
der in detail, insisting that the 48-
hour period for the passage of
troops from the camps into civil
life be maintained and aso check
ing up the semi-permanent demo
bilization personnel at the camps
in an effort to .reduce the number
of men who are being held in the
service for this work. It is believ
ed that he will bo able in his inter
view with newspaper correspond
ents tomorrow to furnish figures
the speed with which the break
ing up of the army at home is be-
insi accomplished.
“Bottle Necks’’ Working Well.
Officers recently returned from
France say t!io“t.\vo bottle necks”
through wliicli practically the en
tire movement must pass, the em
barkation camp at Brest and the
debarkation station at Hoboken,
are now operating at a remarka
ble speed. The system is said to
be so precise that a unit or even
an individual officer or man who
loses stop with the system’s stride
has a difieult time and probably
never succeeds in catching up
with tbe main How.
An instance of the rapidity with
which the machine was working
was shown today by the fact that
officers reporting to General
March on his return was some
who started from their sectors on
the Rhine with their command
just 21 days ago.
t-tfper Clothing.
Paper clothing Ims lons been known,
BometlG.es for Its cusssedness, hut re
cently there was discovered a method
of waterproofing cloth made from
wood pulp which greatly Increases the
life of the garment. Some paper cloth
Is brittle, but there is one variety
known to the Japanese which will
withstand 37,500 foldings without
tweaking.
WALKER HOME DAMAGED
BY FIRE ON SATURDAY.
The lovely home of Mr. and Mrs
B. S. Walker was badly damaged
by fire last Saturday afternoon
The tire originated between the
ceiling and roof of the second sto
ry and had gained considerable
headway when discovered, the
whole roof of the home being a
blaze in a short time. But for the
effective work of the fire company
the building would have been a to
tal wreck. As it was the wills of
the second story were saved, tho
the contents of the upper rooms
were destroyed, and the first floor
without much injury except by
w ater and smoke.
A great many of the house
hold effects w ere damaged or bro
ken in being removed, but Mr. and
Mrs. Walker are grateful for the
prompt and timely assistance ren
dered them by the fire company
and the people, all of whom were
anxious to do something to help.
The household goods were re
moved to the home of Attorney
General Glifford Walker,, where
bis father and family will tempo
rarily reside. The family have
the sympathy of our entire peo
ple in their loss. Mr. Walker will
at once begin rebuilding and re
modeling his home. It is believed
that the $4,500 insurance carried
will cover the loss.—Walton Trib

CONFEDERATE HEROES HON
ORED AT MAYSVILLE. REV.
R. E. MOSS, OF WINDER OR
ATOR OF THE DAY.
(From the Maysville Enterprise.)
Memorial Day was very fiting
ly and pleasantly observed in
Maysville last Saturday, April
26th with the Tliirza David
Chapter I'. D. €.,acting hostess
aj a delightful dinner given in
honor of the veterans, their wives
and the widows of confederate
veterans, also the orator of the
day, Rev. R. E. Moss, of Winder,
our local ministers, High School
faculty and several other specially
invited guests.
Full justice was done to the
tempting variety of delicious
things to eat, “Viands of various
kinds allure the taste,” so on this
occasion no one failed to eat and
everyone could surely find some
thing to suit their taste. After
the dinner was over and the usual
“twelve baskets full” had been
gather'd up, the crowd went to
the Baptist church, where a large
audience assembled to hear the
program which had been pre
pared by the U. D. G. Chapter
and the address delivered by Rev.
R. E. Moss, pastor of the Christian
church of Winder. This address
was one of the very best we have
ever bad on an occasion like this
and was most heartily enjoyed
by all present. The discourse
was a beautiful tribute to the
veterans of the confederacy, be
ing divided into three parts
“The Retrospective, or Glance
Backward,” the “Introspective,
or Peep In” and the “Prospective
or Glance Ahead.” Many touch
ing and well deserved truths were
brought out by the speaker under
llieso different heads, but the
climax of his address was reached
when he eloquently painted a
beautiful word picture of the re
view of the confederate parade
in heaven, when the brave leaders
and heroes of the sixties will be

ICE CREAM
Since remote antiquity, man has found pleasure in the eating of frozen sub
tances. The Bible speaks of the people of Palestine appreciating the refrshing
cpialitics of snow in harvest time. The ancient Jews, Greeks and Romans were
accustomed to its use for the cooling of beverages.
Alexander the Great relished a substance much like our sherbets today,
rozen with snow T brought from a mountain top by a swift running slave.
But about the first real ice cream ever made was placed before Louis XIV,
King of France, by his chef, who used cream in the ice of his invention, and
thereby made ice cream.
In our own country ice cream became popular before the Revolution. The
manufacturer of this dainty obtained a high price in those days as the recipe
was kept a close secret. The first advertisement of ice cream in this country
appeared in a New York paper dated .Tune 8, .178(5, and reads: “Ladies and
Gentlemen may be supplied with ice cream every day at the City Tavern by
their humble servant Joseph Crowe.” The article furnished by the humble
Joseph was surely a luxury as it. cost a dollar a quart.
Ice Cream is not only one of the most delicious of sweets, enjoyed by old
and young, but it is also a very nutritious food. It has several times the food
value of candies; a quart is worth nearly as much as three pounds of beef
steak. Because it is so nutritious and so easily digested physicians recommend
it to invalids and convalescent patients; athletes in training eat it; and, if
home made so that you know it is pure and free from harmful adulterations, it
is the best of food for growing girls and boys.
1 manufacture Ice Cream of all kinds, for any occasion—on just a Wv
hours’ notice. Mail orders given prompt attention.
