CITY ASSURED OF EARLY BUILD¬ ING TO ERRECT FACILITIES FOR SUPPLIES STATE NEWSJJf INTEREST Brief News Of Importance Gathered From All Parts Of The State t, West Point.—That Weit Point will soon have a pontoon bridge is an assured fact. A telegram was re¬ ceived signed by Congressmen Hef¬ lin and Wright stating that the bill for this ridge had passed the house of representative, having passed the senate several days ago. The mes¬ sage also stated that government en¬ gineers will soon be on hand to start work at once. West Point people re¬ ceived this news with enthusiasm, as the absence of the old bridge has caused much inconvenience in regard to transportation facilities from one side of the river to the other. As soon as this bridge is completed, es¬ tablished direct connection from one part of the town to the other, busi¬ ness will begin to assume a somewhat normal proportion. However, it will be some months before usual condi¬ tions will prevail. As things now stand the only means of crossing the river are either walking the Atlanta and West Point railroad trestle, about a mile and a half out of the way, or being carried across in bateaux. The river divides the town, the business section being on the west side, while fully three-fourths of the population reside on the east side. At present there is no way to carry supplies from one side to the other, except as men¬ tioned above. Memorial Commission Plan Monument Atlanta.—The Georgia Memorial mission is planning for work to build a great memorial to the more than 1,700 men from Georgia who died in the European war, and members of the commission are working diligently in this and every district of the state. Following the memorial services which the commission held November 11, or¬ ganization is being extended into ev¬ ery county in Georgia. The mem¬ bers of the commission, two of whom have been appointed by the governor in every district, are appointing sub¬ commissioners in every county, and these groups will have charge of the appeal which will be made later to the people of Georgia to contribute to the monument. It will cost five hundred thousand dollars and will be in the nature of a memorial building which will house the archives of and historic possessions of the state. There will be an auditorium in the building and places where artistic treasures may be preserved. Glynn Working For Rice Station Brunswick.—For the purpose of in¬ specting lands and looking into the possibility of establishing a rice ex¬ periment station in Glynn county, F. H. Abbott of the Georgia Land Own¬ ers’ Association and Prof. J. R. Fain of the state college of agriculture were in this city and county and^ visited Camden county on a similar mission, inspecting a rice plantation in that county, which is already under culti¬ vation. It has recently been announc¬ ed by the government department of agriculture that it intends to establish in the South an experiment rice plan¬ tation, and that a large amount of money will be devoted to the station, as it is intended to extensively exper¬ iment in the rice cultivation through¬ out this section. The location of the station has not as yet been decided upon. Candler County Hog Sale Metter.—Candler county held her first sale of hogs under the super¬ vision of County Agent H. J. Prance. The sale wa sthe first in this county under the head of the co-operative farm bureau. There were sold 186 hogs of 1, 2, 3 and 4 grades. The to¬ tal sale receipts were $2,827.74, an average of about 9 cents per pound. The sale is expected to be followed shortly by another one in greater num¬ ber and finer hogs. Squadron Leaves Savannah Savannah.—Moving as a squadron, ten French trawlers left this port for Maine to be used by the East Coast Fisheries company. M. G. Kennedy, chief engineer for the corporation, and 48 men, came here to take the vessels to the East. Rockdale Suffers Severe Flood Loss Conyers.—A survey of damage to Rockdale bridges by the recent flood shows a loss of between $75,000 and $100,000. This is a very serious finan¬ cial loss to Rockdale, which is one of the smallest counties in the state Census Of Brunswick Shows 21.00C Brunswick.—Brunswick’s populatior according to George Beemer, repre senting a large manufacturing com pany, who has been making a house to-house canvass, is approximately 21, 000. Mr. Beemer, with his assistants has been engaged in the work foi some time and he states that a verj accurate census of the city has been taken. This estimate, he says, does not include several suburbs, which have grown up so thickly within th« past year, but which are within th< city’s limits. 3 MEALS A DAY Wooten Thinks Mull of ZIAON)Become It Made Him His Old Self Again.
