HOW YOU CAN HELP
What To Save And What To Use
Three times each day every Ameri
can has opportunity to be of direct,
practical help to the men on the bat
tie front:
National Program
SBAVE SUGAR. Two pounds per per
son per month is the American honor
ration. Try to eat less and add to the
National surplus for canning. Do this
that the fighting force may be kept
fully supplied, and that England,
France and Italy may receive their
greatly restricted requirements.
SAVE BEEF. Food for fighting men.
Bave the large carcasses for them by
restricting yourself to small cuts, by
products and trimmings; hearts,
tongues, livers. We have enough in
crease supply of pork this summer to
permit economical expansion im its
use, to relieve the pressure on beef.
SAVE WHEAT. Keep on saving,
though the harvest is large. Build up
War reserves by persistent conserva
tion. Without American wheat saved
from the last harvest the Allied cause
would have been lost. The margin next
year must not be so narrow.
USH FRUITS. Take advantage of
the natural sugar in fruits. Can with
out sugar, or with lfttle sugar. Add
sugar later, when it will be more plen
tiful. Dried fruits, such as raislas,
dates and figs have much sugar in
them. Use honey, maple products and
sirups when available.
USE VEGETABLES. Make local
vegetables fill as large a place as pos
sible in your diet, thus conserving not
only meat, and wheat, but transporta
tion and labor. Don't use canned
goods now, while the fresh are avail
able.
USE DAIRY PRODUCTS. Always
give the children plenty of milk, milk
products and eggs. Use them your
selves freely now, and thus conserve
meat for export.
USE FISH. New species are being
popularized and supplies increased. Eat
this nutritious but perishable food sev
eral times a week and let the non
perishables go abroad.

New Sugar Regulation
. Dr. Soule has, in accordance with
‘the scale worked out in Washington,
issued the following order, effective on
and after July 31st at midnight, and
until further ordered:
“ A slight reduction of approximate-
Iy 30 per cent in the distribution of
sugar to consumers j& Decessary, be-
regard to the market or replacement
value at the time of sale.
(NOTE.—The United States Food
Administration will determine and an
nounce differentials, spreads or com
pensation to represent the difference
between the price paid for these com
modities and the total amount any li
censee engaged in the business of
buying, selling or otherwise dealing In
them, as principal or agent, shall be
entitled to receive from the sale of
negotiation thereof.)
“Rule 6. CARLOAD SHIPMENTS—
MINIMUM WEIGHTS. All carload
shipments of cotton seed or peanuts
shall be made in cars loaded to their
capacity, unless a different minimum
is authorized by special written per
mission of the United States Food Ad
ministration.
“Rule 7. WASTEFUL PRACTICES
FORBIDDEN. Every licensee owning,
controlling or operating a ginnery,
shall clean seed cotton and separate
the seed from the lint in an efficient
manner. He shall not add to or mix
with any cotton seed, any matter which
may or may not have been separated
in the process of ginning.
~ “Rule 8. UNREASONABLE
CHARGES BY GINNERS PROHIB
iI’I’ED. No licensee owning, controlling
or operating a ginnery shall make any
unreasonable charge for the service of
cleaning seed cotton or separating the
seed from the lint.
(NOTE.—The United States Food
Administration may determine and an
anounce tha charge to be mads by It
ceaseey for performing the servies
known ar ginning.)
“Rule 9. A licensee who buys cot
ton seed in less than carload quanti
ties for sale or shipment in carload
quantities, shall buy at a gross mar
gin below the carload market price at
railroad points, not to exceed $3.00 per
ton. The cost of hauling from distant
points to the railroad may also be
deducted.”
The United States Food Administra
tion has not set any price op cotton
seed and has not intimated that any
such action will be taken.
National Food Kitchens in England.
There are now in existence in Great
Britain 535 national food kitchens, and
negotiations are being conducted with
tke local authorities for the establish
ment of an additional 500. These
kitchens have contributed very consid
erably toward bhelping households

ual labor because of war condfitions.
ginning with the close of July. It
is, therefore,
“Ordered: That at and after mid
night, July 31st, the household con
sumption of sugar be limited to a basis
of two pounds per person per month
for each member in family and each
domestic employed; that all public
eating places be limited to a basis of
two pounds of sugar for each 90 meals
served; that all boarding houses serv
ing 25 or more persons be limited to
the same basis and under the same
heading as ‘public eating places;’
that all manufacturers, heretofore de
fined as soft drink dealers and dispen
sers, candy makers, confectioners,
etc., be strictly held to consumption
of not more than 50 per cent of last
vear's computed consumption.
“Ordered further: That dining cars,
cafes, restaurants, public dining rooms,
etc., remove sugar bowls from all pub
lic tables and, effective at once, serve
no more than two half-lumps (not 23
lumps) of sugar or one teaspoon full
of granulated sugar to each one per
son at one meal.
“Certificates issued for the month of
August on all statement forms will
be held strictly to allotment figures
and resupply excesses will be held
available for call for redistribution
purposes where interim certiGcates
have been issued.
} “The net allotment for Georgia for
August can not be exceeded. It is,
therefore, of particular importance that
retail dealers handling sugar under the
Administration’s regulations lend
themselves unreservedly to obtaining
proper compliance on the part of indi
vidual consumers with those regula
tions prepared for their protection. It
is the home consumption supply which
is sought to be safeguarded by the
Food Administration, and the more
complete the patriotic co-operation of
the individual that much more success
ful will be the efforts of the Food
Administration in his behalf.
“The Conservation Division of the
United States Food Administration es
pecially urges the saving of the fruit
and vegetable crops by canning and
preserving now for winter uses, but
especially calls upon home canners and
preservers to effect this conservation
without the use of sugar where possi
ble. In numerous experiments it has
been found that sugar substitutes may
be successfully used and in others that
the conservation work may be car
ried forward now without the use of
sugar and the sugar added later, when
the supply is more plentiful.
“The foregoing in its emtirety is ap
plicadble to the Fourth Zone and pud
lication hereof is to bde taken by all
parties concerned as official notice.”

WAR-TIME COURSE
FOR COLLEGE GIRLS
Plans for Business, Professional and
Vocational Work Will Feature
Elizabeth Mather.
ATLANTA, GA.—During the last
few years ideals of college education
have been slowly changing to meet
the demands of modern life; and, par
ticularly in the colleges for women,
has the change heen a remarkable
one. There has been an evolution of
the system which allowed the ac
complishments to predominate to a
more expanded course in which a se
rious preparation for business, pro
fessional and vocational life is given.
This fact is illustrated by the class
of work undertaken at Elizabeth
Mather College here, and by the de
mand for its students in various lines
of work. The college, which is under
the direction of Miss Blanche Lover
idge, is the only one of its kind south
of New York.
At the same time that such serious
training for the duties of life is given,
the graceful attainments that are es
sential to a girl’s charm are not neg
lected. There is a splendid conserva
tory, and the character of instruction
afforded may be judged by the fact
that Miss Marie van Gelder, head of
the department, will tour Canada this
fall with the Metropolitan Opera
Company. Miss Viola Gaines, a grad
uate pupil, will take her place during
her absence.
TEXTILE MEN PULAN
FOR BIG SESSIOM
Atlanta, Ga., Aug., 9.—The Federal
Board for Yocational Training has re
quested the Southern Commercial
Congress to hold a conference of the
textile manufacturers in the South at
an carly date for the purpose of evol
ving a plan of action to enable the
southern states to receive the maxi
mum bencht of the Smith-Hughes
act, which provides for the south
nearly two and one-half millions an
nually, with an increase anuually to
‘more than scven million dollars in
1925, |
‘ Georgia’s share this year will be
‘sixty two thousand dollars and by
‘1925 this share will have increased to
nearly two hundred thousand dollars.
Plans are being made for an at
‘tcmlunce of several hundred textile
!dclcgulcs and representatives of the
Federal boards. The Atlanta Cham
ber of Commerce will join with others
in making the meeting a success, and
local details are now being arranged.
~ An invitation has been extended to
‘Senator Hoke Smith to attend the
conference and make the principal ad
dress as he was the father of the
movement which resulted in the pass
age of the Smith-Hughes act, which is’
destined to be of immense benefit to
Georgia and the South. On account
of the Senator’s recent illness, it is
doubtful if he can be present, but he
has expressed his great interest in the
\work of the conference.

SPEECHES OF HARRIS
I AROUSE ENTHUSIASM
ATLANTA, GA.—The patriotic
fervor of the speeches of William J.
Harris are stirring the people of
Georgia to a rcalization of their part
in the great war and the great vic
tories which are now shedding glory
upon the American flag and nation,
according to friends who have heard
the speeches in various parts of the
state and who have scen the respon
siveness of the people.
Mr. Harris has strongly urged his
claim to the vote of the people for
United States Senator on the ground
of his great patriotism and his will
;ingness to uphold the president ni all
legislation. In recent speeches he
'has defined more clearly than ever
the line that he drew in the beginning
of the race between the patriotic ele
ment in the state and those who
would prove their lack ofpatriotism
’by failing to vote for him in pref
crence to Thomas W. Hardwick.
At his campaign headquartens a
cheerful air of confidence prevails
as to the outcome of the race, their
feeling of assurance being based on
reports from all parts of the state.
lATTORNEY FELDER MAKES
. SUCCESS IN NEW YORK
ATLANTA, GA.—T. B. Felder, the
well known Atlanta attorney who was
so prominently identified with the
Georgia fight for prohibition, is mak
ing a brilliant record for himself in
New York city where he now lives.
He is associated with Bourke Coch
ran, and Georgians who have recently
returned from New York are telling
of the splendid manner in which he
lhandled the defence of John J.
'()'Lcary, who was charged with aid
ing his brother to escape the juris
diction of the courts in the case in
volving charges of sedition.
Mr. Felder is being loudly praised
Ifm' his work in New York legal cir
i cles, and his friends in Georgia will
be interested to know of his success.
WOUNDED WAR DOGS
NURSED IN ATLANTA
ATLANTA, GA.—Not only are the
wounded soldiers arriving in Atlanta
from the battle front in France, but
lthc four-footed friends and pals of
' the boys are coming back with them.
!They are a touching illustration of
the boyish spirit that persists in the
' soldier’s heart, and some of them bear
witness as well to the fiendish artil
' lery fire of the Huns.
One of these four footed soldiers
of the line is Frenchy, a Newfound
land puppy five months old who came
with the last detachment of wounded
~men from France. Frenchie is en
' tirely minus a tail because,a German
!"ghell or bullet performed an unwar
ranted amputation. Also one of the
ipup’s forelegs is badly shot up, but
he is a happy doggie just the same
because he is the mascot of the men
and nurses.
He receives expert medical atten
'tion everyday, his wounds are dressed
'and bandaged according to the regu
lations, and he has a sufficiency of
food and carresses all the time.

-
The following “Ten Command
ments” of General Foch, commander
in-chief of the allied armies, are re
garded as embodying the highest
ideals for soldierly conduct:
Keep your eyes and ears ready and
your mouth in the safety notch, for it
is your soldierly duty to sce and hear
clearly, but as a rule you should be
heard mainly in the semry chal
lenges or the charging cheer. :
Obey orders first, and if still alive
kick afterward if you have been
wronged.
Keep your arms and equipment
clean and in good order; treat your
animals kindly and fairly and your
motor or other machine as though it
belonged to you and was the only one
in the world. Do not waste your am
munition, your gas, your food, your
time, nor your opportunity.
Never try to fire an empty gun nor
fire at an enemy trench, but when
you shoot, shoot to kill, and forget
not that at close quarters a bayonet
beats a bullet. : oy g
‘Letl the truth squarely, face the mu
sic, and take your punishment like a
man; for a good soldier won't lie, he
doesn’t sulk and is no squealer.
Be merciful to the women of your
foe and shame them not, for you are
a man; pity and shield the children in
your captured territory, for you were
once a helpless child.
Bear in mind that the enemy is
your enemy and the enemy of hu
manity until he is killed or captured;
then he is your dead brother or your
fellow soldier beaten pr ashamed,
whom you should no further humil
iate.
Do your best to keep your head
clear and cool, your body clean and
comfortable and your feet in good
condition, for you think with your
head, fight with your body and march
with your feet.
Be of good cheer and high courage,
Fred A. Harnish & Son,
