DBIIIEiIS ME BRAVE
PARIS, Nov. 11.—Drivers of the
American Field Ambulance continue to
receive citation and letters of appreci
ation for their work. Chief Surgeon
Guibal of a division operating at Ver
cun writes:
“At the moment when an unexpect
;ed order of departure deprives the
129th Division of American Sanitary
Section No. 3, the Division Surgeon de
ires to express to all members his
deepest thanks.
"Since April 25,1916, the Section has
followed the Division to the various
• points on the front where it has been
in action: at Lay St. Christophe, in
the dangerous sector of Thiaumont at
, Verdun, and at Bois-le-Petre.
"The American volunteers have ev
< rywhere shown an unforgettable ex
ample of devotion.
"They carry away with them the
gratitude of our wounded, the admira
i tion of all those who have seen them |
Jat work and the regrets caused by'
their departure.
“They leave behind them an exam-1
pie which it will be sufficient to recall
when in another Verdun their succes
sors will be called upon to show the
courage and self-abnegation so neces
sary in the accomplishment of their
mission.”
General Blondin, commanding an
other division at Verdun, wrote on
September 25 to Sub-Lieutenant Rod
ocanachi, of American Sanitary Section
r No. 2:
“I wish to express to you my con
gratulations for the unwearied activity,
the devotion and the fearless contempt ■
of danger shown by the drivers of:
American Sanitary Section No. 2, un- j
der your command, since their arrival)
at the Division and particularly in the i
course of the days and nights from I
September 18 to 20.
‘‘The American drivers have shown'
themselves worthy sons of the great:
and generous nation ofr the emancipa
tion of which our ancestors shed their
blood.
“I cite to the order of the Division
Drivers Carroll Riggs and Owen Ken
an, and would ask you to kindly trans- I
mit to all your drivers my congratula
tions and thanks.
“(Signed) BLONDIN.”
General Blondin also mentions Riggs
and Kenan in general orders for their
courage and devotion. Carroll Riggs
is from Washintgon, D. C., and a grad-'
uate of Yale University. Owen Kenan
is from Kenansville, N. C., and tfas
graduated from the University of
North Carolina.
Stanley Dell, of Princeton, N. J.,
and of Princeton University, has been
cited in orders for his coolness, en
eigy and disregard of danger as an au
tomobile ambulanoe driver in Section
No. 4, attached to Division 64, and es
pecially for having brought, at a gerat
personal risk, a non-commissioned of
ficer to asurgical dressing station
whose injuries were so mad, that, had
he not had immediate attention, he
would have died.
MILS. MARTIN WIRED COLONEL
ROOSEVELT AFTER ELECTION]
ATLANTA. Ga.. Nov. 11.—She could '
rot vote for Woodrow Wilson, and'
neither did si.e have the pleas..re of
making any speeches for him, v. bich]
she could have done with ability, but,
Mrs. Emma T. Martin, of this city, <
could, and did, raise money for the)
Wilson campaign fund, and there was,
no law to prevent her from enjoying'
the satisfaction of a congratulatory
telegram to Colonel Theodore Roose
velt, which she couched in the follow
ing language:
“The country's honor has been vin
dicated; its dignity has been sustain
ed; we have licked 'em to afrazzle;
delighted! You will doubtless keep
your promise ‘not to interfere with
presidential appointments’.”
The tolonel will smile when he
reads that, will he not?

We have just completed our monthly
examinations and let me tell you they
were sho’ nus hard. So many pupils
are afraid they will have to stand
quarterlies. The quarterlies come
next week, and some of the good little
kids are going to get out and leave the
bad kids at work.
We have all been very much inter
ested in the presidential election. Os
course we are all "Democrats,” girls
and boys both.
Monday the 7-1 girls are going' to
have an examination in Domestic Sci
ence, and they are all kind 'er scared,
because Mr. Mathis is going to give it.
They are all hoping to pull through
though.
The 7th grades have a new reader,
called Lamb’s “Tales from Shakes
pear.”
The other day Miss Mary Mathis
asked the fifth grade to write a com
position about elephants. One little
boy came up to Miss Mary and said,
"Miss Mary, 1 haven’t ever seen an
elephant.” Miss Mary said,
"Oh, yes, you’ve seen them in circus-]
es.” The little boy said, “I never have
seen a circus.” Miss Mary said,
‘“Well, you’ve seen them in parades.”
He told her he had never seen a par
ade. We are all glad that a circus is
coming so this little boy will see an
elephant. If any body wants to borrow
a little boy to take to the circus, he'd
be a good one.
We boys in the 7-2 are making book
racks out of quartered sawed oak and
are staining them mahogany or dark
oak. They make very appropriate
Christmas presents. They are for sale
at 40 and 50 cents each. Phone 160 for
information about them.
Our bulbs are almost a foot high
and are fresh and green. They are
very pretty and make the school room
much more attractive. We have more
pots of flowers and the room looks
dressed up. We have a big fern that
covers nearly a whole corner in our
room (the 7-1) and it shows up beauti
fully.
We haven’t had many visitors this
•week, but we have had a few.
At last the pencil sharpener has
come and everything is on the buzz.
The Union Central Lifes’
ieduced rates and The Un
ion Central Life’s liberal di
vidends offer you the best
insurance at a lower cost
than you can buy it else
at he re.

ATLANTA, Ga., Nov. 11.—Can the
Western & Atlantic railroad, owned by
the state of Georgia, valued at $20,000,- I
600 and backbone of the state’s credit,'
be protected from the building of a •
parallel line in the event of a decis- j
ion by the state supreme court holding,
unconstitutional the act of the legisla- I
ture prohibiting the issuance of a I
charter for a parallel line?
The question has been raised as a
result of the discovery that the con- i
stitutional amendment prohibiting the I
issuance of such a charter, which ex- I
Governor Joseph M. Brown asked the '
people to vote against in the election
last Tuesday, was never passed by
the legislature, and therefore was not
' submitted to the people in that elec
' tion.
Such an amendment passed the sen
ate in 1915 and was read three times
in the house, but in the confusion sur
rounding the sine die adjournment,
I which was forced by the prohibition-
I ists in order to necessitate an extra
session, it never reached a vote in that
] body.
| it will, however, be re-introduced in
I the legislature at the 1917 term, in the i
opinion of members of the house and '
senate, and will be one of the most im- |
portant questions of the term. It will'
I raise again the issue of the proposed !
sale of the Western & Atlantic rail-!
road, and on this issue the two leading !
members of the house who are candi- ■
dates for speaker, will sharply divide. I
Representative W. H. Burwell, ot!
Hancock county, speaker of the house !
I in 1913-14, and 1915-16, is an advocate
I of the sale of the Western & Atlantic,
while Representative N. F. Culpepper,
of Meriwether, who is runnnig against
Mr. Burwell for speaker of the house
in 1917-18, has fought the proposal
vigorously and successfully.
Should the supreme court decide in ‘
the case taken up by the Louisville &
Nashville railroad, that the legisliature
had no authority to pass the anti-par
alleling act, the state will then be
confronted with the necessity of post
-1 poning final decision, by an appeal to
' the United States supreme court, until I
1 a constitutional amendment can be
passed by l the legislature and approv
ed by the people.
GUYNEMER ADDS NEW LAURELS
TO ALREADY WONDERFUL LIST
FARIS, Nov. 11. —Lieutenant Georges
Cuynemer, recently credited with
bringing down three German airplanes
in two and a half minutes by a stop
i watch, destroyed two more German
I airplanes yesterday, according to the
war office. This feat brings his total
of airplanes destroyed to twenty-three.
Three other German airplanes, be
sides those destroyed by Guynemer,
were brought down yesterday.
An Inside Bath
Makes You Look
and Feel Fresh
' Says a glass cf hot water with
phosphate before breakfast
keeps illness away.
This excellent, common-sense
health measure being
adopted by millions.
Physicians the world over recom
mend the inside bath, claiming this is I
of vastly more importance than out-!
side cleanliness, because the skin pores
do not absorb impurities into the blood,
causing ill health, while the pores in
the ten yards of bowels do.
Men and women are urged to drink
each morning, before breakfast a glass [
of hot water with a teaspoonful of I
limestone ; hosphate in it, as a harm- j
less means of helping to wash from the I
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the ■
previous day’s indigestible material,.
poisons, scur bile and toxins; thus I
cleansing, sweetening and purifying
the entire alimentary canal before put- j
ting more food into the stomach.
Just as soap and hot water celanses
and freshens the skin, so hot water
and limestone phosphate act on the
eliminative organs.
Those w'ho wake up with bad breath,
coated tongue, nasty taste or have a
dull, aching head, sallow complexion, 1
acid stomach; others who are subject
to billious atacks or constipation,
should obtain a quarter pound of lime
stone phosphate at the drug store. This
will cost very little but is sufficient to
demonstrate the value of inside bath
ing. Those who continue it each
I morning are assured of pronounced re
’ suits, both in regard to health and ap
pearance. advt.
