Women's Attention,
SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE, T'e~, I —
A new word has been put Into the Eng
lish language. It is ‘“‘mug”’ (verb tran
gitlve). When an American has been
kissed by a Frenchman now he says he
has been “‘mugged.’”’ It is the first
American colloquialism of the war. The
English have “over the top' and a doz
en other words and phrases, ‘
As the Frenchman who plants a kiss
on the cheeks of the private is usually
of the hirsute variety, he is lactfully{
avolded. if possible. A soldier is going
down the street. He meets another who
warns him that “an old guy down in the
next block ‘mugged’ me.” It is the
signal for a detour.
The only embarrassment to t R ex
curgions i 8 the amazing frankn. ¥, with
which the French ask questions
“Apres la guerre?’ they ask. ““Will|
yvou marry here?"’ |
This ig a burning question Just now,
and the girls, or many of them, never
miss an opportunity to signify they
have “no fiance.”
Restrictions on Nurses.
The French giris are the only ones
left for the association of the Amurican‘
now. Where I am stationed there are
100 nurses. Also there is Indignation.
Business is slack In the nursing line
now and the young ladies have some
idle time on their, hands. Once they
were accustomed to see the surround
ing country with a soldler as escort.
Then cameé an order that they should
not associate with enlisted men. So it
devolved upon the officers. And now
comes an order from headquarters that
lhe{ shall no more be seen outside any
military post with any soldier of any
rank.
But this means nothing to me. What
are nurges in my young life when a
hundred palrs of black eyes are twin
kling wherever 1 go? This twinkling
has made me happy to be a private. For
#n officer is out of luck.
Luck All With Privates.
An enlisted man may go down the
street, smile at every pair of that hun
dred, pass the time of day, ‘‘promenade’
with one or a dozen, laugh glggle. ac
cept a cookie, conjugate verbs or hold
bands. Ile can ‘'‘be geen’’ most any
place—investigate every (Lumnt corner
and every unusual wine shop. But an
officer can not. The regulations thai
he be always a gentleman imply that
bLe must also be proper. He must not
return a smile to admiring g'ances,

A Personal
Word to Our Readers
The Georgian and American do not print doubtful
financial announcements to fleece our readers and our
community of thousands of dollars annually; question
able medical and obscene advertisements to offend the
refinement of your home; fortune teller, spiritualistic, mat
rimonial and clairvoyant announcements which lure the
gullible, and similar advertisements for which we could
secure, literally, thousands of dollars each year if we were
willing to place the dollar mark above your respect and
confidence, and higher than our duty to our community.
Neither will you find sordid stories featured in a sala
cious manner in The Daily Georgian and Sunday Amer
ican. These “newspapers of the Home" print all the news
that’s fit to print and emphasize all that is clean, bright and
wholesome in their news columns. Both the news and
the advertising columns of “The South's Greatest News
papers” endeavor to reflect The Georgian's standard—
“A clean, wholesome newspaper for Southern Homes,"™
and emphasize the principles for which we are constantly
striving—Truth, Justice, Public Service.

merciless trap of Libel he’d hound the man forever
from editorial power. The girl h’d blacken with
hideous Scandal. But suddenly the tables are turned. Face to
face ~ith a right~ous man no longer in his power, he feels an
iron fist crash against his jaw— hears the wrathful shout; “You don’t

hold your breath waiting — yes, aching for the Ledger's fighting editor to smash
Van Kreel on the jaw again.
