The department never has announc

in internment camps in this country,
but the number is understzod to be
betwien 3,000 and 4,000. Most of them
are Germans and a few are women.
About half are understood to be men
who sorved actively at one time as
verman agents in the United States,
receiving and executing drdors direct

its representatives. These include
tr2ined propagandists, men who plott

What the Ammeter Tells
How much current does your battery give?
How much does it get?
The answer to both these questions is
revealed in the swing of the little ammeter
needle. Its mction is the only thing that can
tell you how your electrical system behaves
on the road.
We'll gladly show you how you can read
the ammeter’s message.
Ask us, while you're here, for the booklet
“A Mark with a Mcaning for You.” It tells
what the Willard Mark stands for.

Milledgeville, Ga., January 10.—I
(Special)—Four of the main I)uil(lingsi
of the Georgia Military college znl
Milledgeville were totally destroyedg
by fire last night at approximate Ioss?
of $50.000. The buildings (lostro_\‘(‘(lj
were the old new dormitories the ur-‘j
mory and the hcspital. I
The fire originated on the second
floor of the old dormitery while the
student body was at supper. It had
gained considerable headway betore
it was discovered, and {lames spread
from this building to the naw dormi
tory, and both building were burned
to the ground before the fire depart
ment rexched the scene,
From the new dormitory the flames
spread to the armory Desperate ef-
Ifox'ts were made by the fire depart
iment assisted hy the 400 cadets to
save the armory, but to no avail, and
|l‘rom this building the flames spread
to the hospital, which was the last
of the four huildings to burn.
| Students to the number of 225 who
lwere left temporally without a home
| were taken into the homes of the citi
|'/;("ilS of the town.
| The new dormitory was built three
years ago at a cost of slss%s. The
other bhuildings were erected twenty
vears ago
The guns of the cadets which were
stored in the armory, were the only
things saved.
The loss was partially covered by
insurance, hut it is not known just
what amount the policies held call
for.

This is the estimate made by Vice
President Lunger ,of the Equitable.
“Industrial,” that is the small week
ly-payment policy companies, are said
to have lost $30,000,000 of the total.
“Flu” and pneumonia have increas
ed the death-claim payments of most
companies by four times the usual
average.
'.I Seqe.ra] companies are “passing”
dividends to policyholders, in antici
pation of of further losses from the
disease.
