In an address to the people of Tift county

£ night
Col. Williams told of the tremendous
task of the United 8tatea to train and
put into the field a large army, alto the
great task of moring this army !MX)0

France to the fighting front By accom
plishing this task, heretofore considered
Impossible, the United States had proren
that this country is not Isolated aad
that it la open to attack by foreign coun
tries.
He told of the great accomplishments
Of the Americans in starting with a very
small army which bad been increased to
more than 4,000,000 when the war end-
' ed, the tremendous task of Increasing
French port facilities to accommodate the
shipment of troops and supplies, and then
the moring of troops and supplies orer-
aaas la tha face of German submarine
warfare. By their accomplishments. The
Americans not only surprised their Allies
but ahe surprised themsdres.
Col. Williams said that when the Ger
mans quit on Noremher 11, they had all
their forces in the line and they had been
there since Norember 2. The Americans
with the assistance of the Allies, had
forced them back until one line of com
munications was cut. It had been plan
ned for the second American army to
launch a drice on Norember 11, wbicb
would hare cut the Germans’ second line
of communications and put the Americans
on the Rhine in three weeks, he said.

Won War Because of Pure Ideals and
Christian Life, Says Lieut. Hendricks
Good Crowd Hears Talks.
“The succes of the United States Army
in Europe was due to the Ideals of pure
manhood and womanhood, the belief in
the right to tbe pursuit of life, liberty
and happiness and the practice of Chris
tian life on tbe part of the American p*)-
pie,” said Lieutenant Terry Hendricks
in his talk on the European War deli
vered at the High School Auditorium
Tuesday evening.
Lieutenant Hendricks appealed to the
people of Tifton not to allow another
Fourth of July pass without a fitting
observance of the day, the predominating
idea of which should be to teach the
young people love and respect for the
American 9ng.

Baker with MLs Mildred Slack at the
piano. Secretary W. R Aljtea intio-
duced the speak;*:* with * lew well ae-
lccted \v°rds.
Explains Different Terms .
Lieutenant Hendricks took the battle
of St. Mihel as the scene for his talk,
explaining in detail what was n-cant by
the different operations of the army. He
used the blackboard for illustrations, ex
plaining the trench system and why the
trenches were so built and the result of
bayonet and hand grenade attacks on
the trenches.
The task of the man in a working party
or on night patrol, he described as the
hardest work and the greatest task the
soldiers had to perform. The working
parties went out at night into “N 0 Man's
Land” to repair barbed wire entangle
ments and the patrtl went out to prote
them. Some of the worst hand-to-hand
fighting of the war occurred between
opposing patrols and working parties out
on night duty.
Trench raids were made primarily to
get enemy prisoners and thus get infor
mation as to the enemy's strength *n
that sector. They were not made for
the damagtf that might be inflicted, but
to get information.
Lieutenant Hendricks, who was with
tbe artillery, next gave a complete
description of artillery fire. The
harassing fire was directed at the
enemy’s lines of communication nnl con
centration and supply points. This fire
was started some time before an attack
Preparation fire, directed at the enemy’s
lines communication, trencher, etc.,
was continued fo r several hours before
an attack. The rolling barrage was put
down just before an attack started and
moved forward just ahead of the first
line of advancing traps.
How It Feels to Go Over tbe Top
Mr. Hendricks had the experience of
going over tbe top in an attack and told
how the different men took it. No man,
he said, can face death with tranquility.
The minute pn ceding the move is one
of great suspense for the men. They
take it differently, sonic laughing nud
talking, while others arc quiet and seri
ous.
He explained the task of moving the in
fantry, artillery, tanks, airplanes, etc.,
up to the front at night in preparation
for an attack and the necessity tor sec
recy. He followed thia with a detailed
account of the wiping out of the St. Mi-
hiel salient and the heroism, bravery and
self-sacrifice of the American troops.
The Germans considered thig sector prac
tically impregnable and when the Ameri
cans captured the territory, they also
captured all kinds of food, wines, etc.
and spent several days in feasting after
they had run the Huns out.
He paid tribute to the generous and
unfuiling aid given the army by the peo
ple at home, which was in large measure
responsible for the victory.

FEDERAL COURTS TO '
ENFORCE DRY LAWS
After January 1, Said Judge Ere, i*
Charge to Grand Jury. State Courts,
Jurisdiction Limited Since July 1
After January 1, next, the County And
State courts will be relieved of the task
of enforcing the prohibition laws, in ths
opinion of Judge Eve, in his chsrge.to _
the Grand Jury of Tift Superior Court,,
Judge Eve further expressed the opiil*
ion that the State Courts could not pros*
eeute for the sale of intoxicating llqnort
after July 1, when the wartime prohibi
tion law went into effect. He was also
doubtful if the state courts could prose
cute for the manufacture of intoxicating
liquors after July 1 when the materials
used therein were those included in the
wartime prohibition act. He instruc
ted the Grand Jurors that they might
return indictments in cases of such man
ufacture as came to* their attention, and
let the courts decide the question of juris*
diction. He instructed that the Federal
stautes do not conflict with the state laws
against keeping intoxicating liquors on
hand, and that indictments might be
brought thereunder.
“Two sovereign bodies cannot have
concurrent jurisdiction over the same
offense," His Honor said.
Judge Eve’s charge was one of the
ablest he has delivered here, and contain
ed many gems of thought unusual to
these addresses. He commended to the
Grand Jurors the protection of non
game song birds, not alone in the jurors^
official capacity but through their influ
ence as citizens. Also he commended to
them the protection of minors, around
whom should be thrown the safeguard
of the law, to prevent their being led
into the paths of wrong.
Discussing the cigarette and kindred
laws, his Honor said: “When woman
suffrage becomes common and women rep
resent their counties in the State General
Assembly, I am not sure that body will
be more useful, but I am certain it will
be more ornamental. Then you chewers
