LOTS OF ROAD EQUIPMENTS.
Georgia Counties to Get Quota
Government Trucks.
Instead of getting one million
dollars worth of motor trucks and
and other equipment for road con
struction from the federal govern
ment, as first announced, it now
appears that Georgia will get sev
eral million dollars worth.
Notice has been received that
the federal government holdij in
readiness for shipment to Georgia
counties two hundred and seven
automobile trucks conservatively
valued at #700,000, and while this
is only the first allotment to Geor
gia. The trucks will be sent to
the counties to which are assigned
by the state highway authorities.
Application cover the entire lot
are already on file. The counties
will pay the freight on the trucks
from shipping points to destination.
The trucks are stored at various
mechanical repair units, such as
Camp Jessup in Atlanta.
The sudden termination of the
war found the federal government
in possession of millions of dollars'
worth of equipment which could
be used in times of peace. This
equipment was bought with public
money raised by taxation and the
sale of bonds. It will now go back
to the public by distribution
among the several states for road
building purposes.
666 has more imitations than any
other Chill and Fever Tonic on the
market, but no one wants imita
tions in medicine. They are dan
gerous.

Result ing from a consideration of
the German reply to the peace
terms the British are disposed to
favor several concessions to Ger
many in the peace terms; the
Americans are not averse to some
minor concessions; while the French
adheres strictly to the original
peace terms, as presented. With
the council of four thus divided it
is probable some slight concessions
will bo made in the peace terms.
Another delay in the “signing or
fighting” program has been granted
the Germans, and they will now
have until June 25th, to determine
positively what they are going to
do in the premises.
In contrast with the haughty
and dictatorial spirit evinced by
the Germans, is that of the Aus
trian delegates headed by Dr. Carl
Reiner, chancellor. The only com
plaint they have made is upon the
delay in presenting them with the
I>eace terms, lie promised loyally
to do his best to bring about peace
on the terms presented him, and
praised the generous relief work
undertaken in Austria by the allies
and America. lie reminded the
allies that the magnificent Austria
Hungarian empire was not now in
existence; it had been divided into
several small states, and for this
reason asked concessions in the
matter of indemnities or repara
tions. He desired a peace of right
and justice and for assistance to
tide over the trouble. The Aus
trian delegates did not display the
arrogance which characterized the
Germans.
Gone Home.
The Tribune has it, from what
seems to be reliable sources, that
Hon. Royal Daniel—-having com
pleted his patriotic duties in con
nection with the world war —has
j gone to his home in (Quitman and
resumed his work on the Quitman
Free lTess.
The members of the Pearson
Board of Education, with several
other public-spirited gentlemen of
the city, have signed a contract
which, in connection with the
high school,, guarantees to t he cit i
zens of Pearson and vicinity three
very attractive Lyceum entertain
njepts ijext fall and winter. The
three numbers selected are very
fine, and those attending them will
be delighted.
Pearson was selected at Way
cross last year to be the next place
of meeting of the Waycross Dis
trict Mathodist annual conference.
The Tribune is not advised when
it convenes but it will be not
many weeks off, as it is generally
held in the early summer. Pear
son citizens should be ready to
give the conference a hearty wel
come.

with the following specifications
for an aviation landing field:

500 by 1000 feet in dimensions,
with no obstacles around the field,
such as tall trees, houses, telephone
wires, etc.
(2.) There must be no
stumps, ditches, etc, on the fiield.
In case there are any stumps or
ditches, the stumps must be re
moved and the ditches filled in, so
as to give the surface a hard
smooth appearance.
(3.) The field must be marked
iu the following mannpr:
(4.) A Jip'ge vhHb circle should
be placed in the center of the field,
with the first letter of the name of
the toxvn printed in the center of
the circle. The circle should be

ly recognizable at a distance. This
symbol indicates to the pilot that

(5.) The extremities of the field
should be marked by means of

beyond which he knows there is
probably danger,
There is at present good landing
