WILL ENROLL WOMEN
OF CONFEDERACY IN
BOOK OF^MEMORY
Atlanta. Ga., June 26.-In recog
nition of the fact that the women of
the sixties rendered almost as much
service to the confederacy as did the
men who fought, the Stone Mountain
Confederate Monumental Association
announces that the women who ren
dered service to the south during the
ixties may be wiemorialized by the
ehilldren who enroll in the children’s
founders roll of the great confederate
memorial at Stone Mountain. The
names of the women so honored by
their descendants will be inscribed in
the BOOK OF MEMORY in the same
manner as those oi rthe veterans of
the confederacy.
As practically every woman of the
south rendered ifie class of service
Jater known as “Home Service Work,”
this means that a large number of the
women of the sixties will be eligible
for memorialization through the
children’s enrollment.
In many cases women rendered con
spicuous service during the war be
tween the states and secured for them
selves an enviable place in the his
tory of the period. Others participat
ed in the nursing of the wounded, in
making clothing for those at the
front, in all the different phases of
activity that went on behind the lines
while the men fought and the women
waited, worked and prayed. An
nouncement that the heroines of tihose
times are to have a place in the
world’s greatest memorial will please
ithose who have desired and re
quested the privilege of memorializ
ing the women dear to them. A
fcumber *f women's names have been
sent in already.
News of the children’s founders
(roll has penetrated to many distant
places. Three children living in Swe
den were enrolled last week. They
are the descendants of a confederate
colonel whose daughter's marriage
took her to Sweden.
Enrollments have been received also
from Alaska, Japan, Honolulu, the
Hawaiin Islands, Southwest Africa,
Mexico, Canada, the Canal Zone, the
Philippines and other distant lands
were southerners have gone to make
their homes.
The association hopes that every
child in every southern family will
be enrolled eventually, as this will
mean that every confederate hero
md 1 eroine will be memorialized.

THE WALLOONS: OUR NEGLECT
ED IMMIGRANT FOREFATHERS
To the question of “What is a Wtt
loon?” that arises from the issuance
by the Un.uo States of a special Hu
gucnot-Wal’uon-New NVh > . -hinds ter
centenary i ostage ‘tamp and coin and
the holding of New York’s Nc.v Netb
erlan-s celebration one answer might
be “half a Belgian,” acc-rdmg to a
bulletin frno the Washington, D ,
bead'iuart-rs of the Nat enal Geo
graphic soncty.
“The name ‘Walloon,’ sa->\s the
bu'letin, ‘\s little known on this side
of the Atlantic, even less so than
'‘leming,' tv cause both have been
merecd i:i he national uime, ‘Bel
fi.n" It is a fad, however, that in
stead of t; e Belgians bavin.; racial
unity they should consist of two peo
ples approximately equall divided
spsking jant aages differin ' almost as
wdely as Swedish and Spni.-b Rut
th.*ugh ravially and Jinguisticall.v the
Belgians make up a sort of a *-*»se
divided against itself, politically and
religiously they constitute as staunch
a national entity as does French-Ger
man-Italian - speaking Switzerland;
and they have stood together thiough'
the centuries under various rulers.
Walloons Plus Flemings Equal Bel
gians.
“The Walloons may De said to form
the French-speaking half of Belgium,
for through a very few in out-of-the
way districts know only the French
like old Walloon language, modern
French has replaced that speech for
the vast majority of the Walloons.
The other half of the Belgian partner
ship is made up by the Flemings
whose speech, Flemish, differs very
little from Dutch. The Catholic peo
ple of Flander, however, have been
divided from their kinsmen, the
Protestant Dutch, by a religious gulf
for hundreds of years and prefer to
cleave to their fellow religionists, the
Walloons.
“An almost straight line can be
traced on the surface of Belgium sep
arating the Walloons from the Flem
ings. It runs from Aix-la-Chapelle,
just inside the German border, west
ward to strike the French boundary a
short distance southeast of Ypres.
There is little to indicate this line to
the eye of the traveler who crosses it,
out his car will soon tell him that he
has passed from one language zonp to
another. The line marks what was
once the edge of a dense forest cover
ing the rough land of southern Bel
gium.
Language Line Crosses Belgium.
“To this line the old Walloons—the
Belgae of Julius Caesar were
pressed by the southward faring Teu
tons who took possession of and cul
tivated the plains and swamps of
northern Belgium. These immigrant
Teutons, from whom the Flemish peo
ple siiang, did not penetrate ihc for
est country, and there the Walloons
remained entrenched. Save for iso
lated groves the forests havo d<sap
peared today, giving place to mines,
factories, farms and gardens; but the
Flemish-Walloon racial line is almost
as sharply marked as it was fourteen
htindrd2 Years ago.
“The Walloons, in their native land
today, are practically all Catholics;
but there were religious differences
among them in the seventeenth cen
tury, and it was fugitive Protestant
Walloons who played a prominent
part in peopling America. While the
Spanish were endeavoring to root out
heresy in the Netherlands hundicds
of thousands of both Walloon and
Flemings fled to the newly set up
Protestant Dutch republic, just as
some of the Pilgrim Fathers fled
there from Ene'and. It was Walloons
f;om among tbes* fugitives whr, like
the Pilgrims a il 1 bench Huguenots,
emigrated to Anericu.

THE JULYDATES OF
MASONICJNTEREST
Patriotic and Fraternal Anniversaries
to Be Celebrated by the Craft Next
Month.
It is very appropriate that the
birthday of Guiseppe Garibaldi, the
Italian emancipator, should fall on
Independence day. He was born July
4, 1807. When he was a young man
he* came to the United States and af
filiated with Tompkins lodge No. 741,
Stapleton, New York. Upon his re
turn to his native country he became
grand master of Masons of Italy and
in 1863 was elected grand command
er of the supreme council, 33 degrees,
of the Scottish rite in that country.
Admhsal Farragut, a famous Amer
ican Mason, was born on July 5, 1801.
His exploits during the civil war gave
him a large place in American his
tory.
John Marshall, the first chief jus
tice of the United States, died July 6,
1835. He, too, was a famous Mason,
and served as grand master of the
contest will he open until June 30,
after which the judges will announce
the results.
According to records of the Na
tional Bureau of Casualty and
Surety Underwriters 111,276 people
have been killed in automobile acci
dents since 1907, more than twice
the number of Americans killed in
the World War. This figure docs
not include those killed in grade
crossing accidents. While reliable
records of automobile accidents re
sulting in injuries short of death
are lacking, the bureau estimates
that close to 2,781,900 persons have
been injured in the same period-
As the number of deaths has in
creased each vear, frofti 598 in 1907
to 15,700 in 1923, Mr> Holland be

concerted action should be taken to

grand lodge of Virginia in 1793.
John Paul Jones, founder of the
American navy, and famous sea
fighter, was born July 6, 1747. Ad
miral John Paul Jones was the first
officer commissioned in the American
navy, first to command a war vessel,
first to run up the American flag over
a war vessel, the Alfred, 1775, first
and only naval officer named in the
act of continental congress creating
the new flag—the Stars and Stripes—
first to propose and receive a salute
to the Stars and Stripes from a for
eign nation, France, first to make a
British man-of-war strike its colors
and surrender to the Stars and
Stripes, the Drake, and the first naval
officer to receive a vote of thanks
from congress. John Paul Jones was
a member of St. Bernard's lodge No.
122, Kirkcudbright, Scotland, in which
he was raised a Mason November 27,
1770.
During the month of July the Ma
sonic lodges of the country will be
called upon to memorialize many of
their great dead.
On July 4, 1831, President James
Monroe, who was a member of Wil
liamsburg Masonic lodge No. 6, Wil
liamsburg, Va„ died.
Edmund Burke, whose eloquent de
fense of the American colonies has
made him one of the most beloved, in
American hearts, of English states
men, passed away on July 9, 1797.
He was a member of Jerusalem lodge
No. 44, Clerkenwell, London.
Robert Burns, the sweet singer of
Scotland and first poet laureate of
Freemasonry, died on July 21, 1796.
He was raised in St. David’s lodge,
Tarbolton, July 4, 1781.
Roger Sherman, whose name stands
conspicuously among the signers of
the declaration of independence, and
who was made a Mason just prior to
the breaking out of the revolution,
died on July 23, 1793.
General Sam Houston, president of
the republic of Texas in 1836 and lat
er governor of the state of Texas,
passed away on July 26, 1863. He
affiliated with Holland lodge No. 1,
louston, and was president of the
first Masonic convention in Texas to
form the grand lodge.
Andrew Johnson, president of the
United States, who died July 30, 1875,
was made a Mason in Greenville lodge
N’o. 119, Greenville, Tennessee. While
president of the United States he was
made a 32 degree Mason in the Scott
sh rite by communication, on June 20,
1867, at the white house.
July also holds many historic events
of interest to Masons. On July 3,
1898, Admiral Cervera’s fleet was de
stroyed at Santiago by the American
fleet under the command of Admiral
Sampson and Admiral Schley. Ad
miral Schley was a 33 degree Mason.
The cornerstone of the Washington
monument in Washington was laid
with Masonic ceremonies on July 4,
1848.
The statue of Lafayette, the gift to
France of the American school chil
dren, was unveiled in Paris on July 4,
1900. Lafayette has a brilliant Ma
sonic record.
The first lodge of Masons was
opened in Boston on July 30, 1733.
Now ai(l Forty Years Ago.
It is easy to imagine that things
were heteter in the old days, but when
one goes back in newspaper files forty
or fifty years ago, one generally finds
that living conditions were nothing
like as satisfactory as they now are,
it was pointed out todav by officials
of the Georgia department of agricul
ture.
Foity j.-.irs ago in Georgia eggs
were worth fO cents a do, en and there
were few for sale at that price. Eggs
are worth around 40 cents now, not
only in Atlanta, but in most Georgia
cities. Put forty years ago cotton
was se.l'ng \.r 10 cents a pound. The
price now ; s around 30 cents. That
makes forty years ago less attractive
to the l.i.su is? view.

Headache
"I have used Black-Draught
when needed for the past 26
years,” says Mrs. Emma
Grimes, of Forbes, Mo. “I
began taking it for a bad case
of constipation. I would get
constipated and feel just mis
erable —sluggish, tired, a bad
taste in my mouth, . . . and
soon my head would begin
hurting and I would have a
severe sick headache. I don’t
know just who started me to
taking
Thedford’s
BLACK-DRAUGHT
but it did the work. It just
seemed to cleanse the liver.
Very soon I felt like new.
When I found Black-Draught
■o easy to take and easy*
acting, I began to nse it In
time and would not have sick
headaches.”
Constipation causes the
system to re-absorb poisons
that may cause great pain

at 16 cents ; pound the farmer prob
ably barely made ends meet.
And forty years ago in Georgia and
the south people had but few of the
things that go to make life pleasant
today. There were no electric cars
then, no telephone, no automobiles, no
electric lights, no picture theaters, no
paved streets and probably no side
walks. Then the city’s water supply
probably was derived from wells and
cisterns, with perhaps the old spring
helping out. There were no sewers,
and bath rooms probably were few.

LADIES! DARKEN *
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma’s Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody
Will Know
The use of Sage and Sulphur for re
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother’s time.
She used it to keep her hair beautifully
dark, glossy and attractive. Whenever
her hair took cr. hat dull, faded or
streaked appearance, this simple mix
ture was applied with wonderful ef
fect.
But brewing at home is tnussy aod
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a bottle of "Wyeth’s
Sage and Sulphur Compound,” you will
get this famous old preparation, im
proved by the addition of other ingre
dients, which can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to the
hair.
Well-known druggists say it darkens
the hair so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell it has been applied.
You simply dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
your hair, taking one strand at a time.
By morning the gray hair disappears,
and after another application or two, it
becomes beautifully dark and glossy.
Have Kidneys
Examined By
Your Doctor
Take Salts to Wash Kidneys if
Back Pains You or Bladder
Bothers
Flush your kidneys by drinking a
quart of water each day, also take salts
occasionally, says a noted authority, who
tells us that too much rich food forms
acids which almost paralyze the kidneys
in their efforts to expel it from the
blood. They become sluggish and
weaken; then you may suffer with a
dull misery in the kidney region, sharp
pains in the back or sick headache, dizzi
ness. your stomach sours, tongue is
coated, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The urine
gets cloudy, full of sediment, the chan
nels often get sore and irritated, obliging
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night.
To help neutralize these irritating
acids, to help cleanse the kidneys and
flush off the body’s urinous waste, get
four ounces of Jad Salts from any phar
macy here; take a tablespoonful in a
?lass of water before breakfast for a
ew days, and your kidneys may then
act fine. This famous salts is, made
from the acid of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with litnia, and has been used
for, years to help flush and stimulate
sluggish kidneys; also to neutralize the
acids in the system so they no longer
irritate, thus often relieving bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive: can not in
jure and makes a delightful efferves
cent lithia-water drink. By all means
have your physician examine your kid.-
neys at least twice a year.
