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.

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 MONEY TO LOAN Money to loan on FARM or CITY PROPER TY at low rate of interest.

Kilgore, Radford & Smith 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.
