Flanders Mud Used
In Place of Cement
ROULERS, Belgium, Jan, 3--Flanders
mud, the bane of all armies operating in
Belgium, is of some use after all. ‘
Lime is practically unobtainable in Bel
gium today, and in many of the ruined
villages the refugees are laying stones
and bricks with mud for sheiter against
winter. Others fill the chinks with it
and it is becoming as much of a comfort
to the refugees as it was a handieap to
the soldiers who lived in it for months.
At Dixmude, the mayor divides his time
between public affairs, weighing out coal,
supplies and cleaning mortar off old bricks
from the ruin of his house. He is laying
these in mud, too. His example is being
widely followed in Dixmude and surround
ing villages.

The Atlanta ILexington Motor Com
pany starts the new year as State
distributors for Lexington cars. W,
{M, Johnson is president, and R, D
:’uwell vice president and general
{manager,
! Mr, Johnson is one of the best
known business men in the South.
liis home is in Lithonia, Ga., where
,he hag extensive business interests,
(being president of the Lithonia bank,
|and head of a wholesale and a retail
| hardware business, also a wholesale
I:nnd a retail grocery business. Mr.
{Johnson also owns the biggest de
|pnrl,mf-nf store in Lithonia. In At-
Ilama Mr, Johnson is known as the
lfinud of the W. M. Johnson Grocery
l('nmpuny. a wholesale grocery house
Ilnmnml in this city. There is hardly
{a more sueccessfu! business man in
|the entire South than Mr. Johnson,
'and the success of this new enter
(prise ig assured.
Mr. Powell is well known in motor
car circles. He was formerly presi
dent and manager of the French
'Fowell Motor Car Company. Mr.
Powell has had the Lexington line
| for several years, and is thoroughly
acquainted with dealers all over the
| territory. |
| Mr. Powell states that they will he-‘
'gin at once Ito renew old dealers’
ju.nrruvm, and allot new territory. He
also stated that the Lexington At
lanta Motor Company will leave noth
ing undone in giving 100 per cent!
s#ervice to Lexington owners and
dealers. ‘
A recent editorial in The Georgian
carried an article to the effect that
there were about 90,000 Fords turned
out in the plant of the Ford Motor
Company in Detroit in October, 1919,
this breaking all previous records, and
being about ten -times the number
turned out in the same month in 1918.
There are now working in the Ford
shops at Detroit approximately 70,-
000 men, and many a small city would
like to be able to boast of a popula
tion .thig size.
The Ford turn-’, out today is an
improvement in appearance over the
old Ford, especially with its stream
line body, and any man can be proud
today of owning a Ford, but the best
looking lordsg today.are found in the
Southern States, where nickel plated
I"'ord shells and rims are being plated
for them by the Simmons Plating
Works in South Pryor street, rlghtl
hére in Atlanta. Mr. C. Simmons
sayg that when he nickel plated the
first radiator shell for a Ford, he
‘had no idea that it would prove so
popular, and he is proud of the fact
that his plant ig the first one that
ever plated these shells on Fords, and
now most every one is “dolling” up
these carg with bright and shining
njckel trimimings. .
Mr. Simmons says that while they
are making a specialty of dolling up
Fords, they are likewise plating lots
of other autrhobile parts, such ‘as
bumpers, reflectors, etc, also they
are kept busy by the industrious
housewives keeping their brass beds
and silverware new.

the hotels and private homes to care
for those who wish to come. Meals
can be had at the university com
mons for 86 cents a day, or 30 cents

the men, but to women as well. One
woman, Mrs. Lee, from Minnesota,
has written asking the reservations
be made for her. She expects to make

believes the courses offered are weil
worth making this long trip.
Four separate courses are offered:
'Animal husbandry and general agri

culture and vegetable growing, and
tractors and general agriculture,

it will help the student to plan his
farm work and give him a more
thorough knowledge of stock rais

PODGORITZA, Montenegro, Jan. 3.—
Turkish brokers in Montenegro have gone
dollar mad, So great has the demand for
American money become that money
changers fight with each other for the
privilege of buying American bills and
often overbid in an attempt to gain a cus

Almost anything that has the word “dol

dealers Every day some worthless piece
of paper embellished with stamps and
flourishing signatures and with the word
“dollar” appearing frequently is brought
to the office of the comptrolier of the
American Red Cross for identification and
to have the exact value set
Some time ago a Turk brought a note
of the empire of Brazil to the office. e
had paid & high premium for the note and
was astonished when he was told that ail
paper that is marked “dollars” is not nec
