Hibernian Society Cables Home
Advice to Face Conscription
\
’ and Fight Common Foe.
‘ : :
. Georgia's Irish are squarely behind
' England’s plan of home rule and con
scription for Ireland, and intend to
impress on John Dillon, Irish leader in
the Fnglish House of Commons, that
they feel the citizens of the Emerald
Isle should fight side by side with the
Allies as the Irish in the United States
are doing, according to action taken
Saturday afternoon by P. G. Keeney,
of Atlanta, former State president of
the Ancient Order of Hibernians.
Mr. Keeney sent a telegram to
State President William A. Saunders
in Savannah asking that he at once
cable to John Dillon these sentiments
in the name of the State organiza
tion.
The Irish of Augusta already have
adopted resolutions expressing this
attitude, but now the appeal to fight
will go forth to Ireland from the
voice of the entire Irish population
of Georgia.
M:. Keeney expressed the belief
that the people of Ireland will see the
error of their why in fighting con
scriptior. and that soon the nroblem
will be golved satisfactorily. He said
there is no doubt that the opposition
to conscription is strong, but that he
felt sure this would be swept away
when the Irish people thoroughly un
derstand the seriousness of their pres
ent attitude.
“The Irish in this country are fight
ing loyally, and the people in Ireland
eventually will be doing the same
thing, I feel sure,” said Mr. Keeney.

Civil War Vet

To Meet and Form
-
Unit to Serve U. S.
Spanish-American War veter
' ans in Atlanta will meet Wednes
day evening at 7 o’clock at Red
Men’s Hall, No. 86 Central ave
nue, to organize an effective unit
for whatever service they may be
called upon to do for their coun
try, it was announced by Charles
T. Hart, acting commander of the
local camp of veterans. It is
hoped that every man who saw
service in the was with Spain will
attend the meeting.
The veterans were the first
movers in . organizing a local
. emergency regiment, and were
making excellent progress when it
was learned the Georgia laws for
bade the organization of such a
unit. It is expected, however,
that the Government will make
provision for such organizations.
They would provide cities and
towns with effective defense
against disturbance and give the
| nation a well-drilled force of
thousands of good citizens for
home defense, at no cost to the
Government.
Atlanta has several hundred
veterans of the Spanish-American
War who probably will be inter
ested in organizing the proposed
unit.

Members of Auto Association,
Pleased With North Georgia
' ' Lk
Trip, Will Visit South
\
| st tinmipting
Enthusiastic over the success of the
aute tour to Chattanooga last week
and the intense interest in better
highways that was found to exist in
the North Georgia counties, mmnlmrs}
of the Georgia Automobile AS.\‘()\‘i:l—l
tion Saturday already had commenced |
to prepare for another great guudi
roads boosting drive, this time into
South Georgia. This next tour was |
scheduled for early May. ; ]
The aim of this big State-wide!
personal campaign being staged by |
the automobile association is to stir |
the people throughout the State tc |
greater interest in improved hi:hwaysi
with the purpose of ebtaining the en
actment by the Legislature this sum-‘
mer of legislation that will reorganize
the present State Highway (‘nmmis-‘
sion, 80 as to meet the requirements|
of the Government and thus save to|
Georgia its $2,000,000 share of the
Government's $85,000,000 good roads
fund. Unless the present law, creat- |
ing the highway commission, is|
changed, Georgia will lose this sx:lvn-l‘
did sum, members of the association
pointed out.
Georgia is one of three States in
the Union that has failed to receive
its share of the good roads fund, it’
was explained. !
Oscar Mills, former chairman of the |
County Commission and first vice|
president of the automobile associa
tion, one of the leaders in the present
campaign, Saturday expressed himself !
as highly gratified over the growing
interest in good roads in North (i(ur-l
gia. He said:
“The enthusiasm and interest of
the people in North Georgia counties
in the matter of improved highways
is wonderful. The people are arouscd
to the importance of this s:ilu:n.um.‘
and they mean to produce good roads.
They are going to demand good roads
—they have gone beyond the point nf"
begging and pleading. |
“At every place we stopped on the
Chattanooga tour we found the people
in earnest about the building of good
roads. The war and the military!
needs of the country seem to hu\(-]
stimulated the good roads movement |
to a marked degree, and the people]
now want action.” !

Weak nerves quickly reduce the strong ‘

dition and rob men and women of aIII
the {o_vs of life. Slowly and stealthily
the health is destroyed, the poor suf
ferer only realizing the magnitude ofl
his aflment when faulty memory, sleep.-
legsness, indecision, lack of energy or|
other unmistakable symptoms indicate |
weak nerves. Then it is a serious nndl
dangerous mistake to resort to the use
of so-called tonics, alcoholic or drug
stimulants.
Weak and exhausted nerves need food
and nourishment--not stimulants that
lash them into temporary activity, The
food and nourishment advised by prcs-l
ent-day physicians is just one 5-grain
tablet of pure bitro-phosphate taken
during or immediately after each meal.
Simple advice, but its soundness has
been proven over and over again. }
