Mammoth Ford
Plants Closed
Upwards Os 100,000 Men Are Idle
—Ford Renews Efforts To Get
Coal At Reasonable Price.
Detroit, Mioh., Sept.lß.—(By
The Associated Press.)—An indus
trial army of upwards of 100,000
persons today entered upon a
period of idleness and the mam
moth Ford Motor Company plants
were deserted except for care-takers
for the first time in months. This
was the first working day since the
comnlete suspension of operations
due to the coal situation.
As many of the idle factory
workers were casting about for jobs
to tide them over, the employer,
Henry Ford, renewed bis efforts to
solve his fuel problem His task,
Mr. Ford maintained, was to ob
tain fuel at what he considered a
reasonable price. To accept coal
at prices quoted him, Mr. Ford
previously had declared, would be
a “eobinission to profiteers. ’
No statement bad oeen made by
the manufacturer today as to the
probable duration of the suspen
sion of work st bis pin tits, but Ed
sei Ford, president of the com
pany, voiced the hope that away
out of the fuel difficulty might
toon be found.
Whether the reported plan of
the Chamber of ‘Cbmmerce of the
United States for a nation-wide
cooperative agreement among
manufacturers would aid the Ford
company still was in doubt.

The Mystic Stream
firbedny morning, the 12th inst.
Mr. and Mrs. S. M. Watson were
called to Edison over long distance
by her brother, Mr. M. J. Ward, at
whose’home the ma’ron’s beloved
mother, Mrs. Sarah Greene Ward,
was desperately ill; but a half hour
before the Colqnittaus could reach
the stricken home, the swift mer
s.-nger of Death claimed the gen
tlejspifit, of Mrs. Ward, who iu
July pasted the ‘anniversary ma
king her seventy-five years of age.
She Became ill Saturday and re
mained in bed Sunday. Monday
morning she felt better and arose
from bed. Soon she grew worse,
and from what seemed to be an
attack of malaria a kidney trouble
developed which would not yield
to treatment of faithful physicians,
or loving.administrations.
She died nt 8 A. M. Tuesday.
She wtgs the widow of the late E.
8. Ward who preceded her to the
spirit world fourteen years ago.
The deceased called the resi
dence of a daughter, Mrs. B. F.
Glover in Halesburg Ala., her
home; but she spent her time n
baut equally at the homes of her
sitveu ... >
For years Mrs. Ward, a member
of the Primitive Baptist Church,
had lived the life of an earnest
consecrated Christian. Truly her
children one arise and call her
blessed.
This saintly mother leaves six
daughters, viz: Mesdamee S. M.
Watson of this city; B. T. Davie
and B. F. Glover of Halesburg
Ala; Effie Mobley of Shorterville,
K. J. Todd of Pannama City Fla;
and Leila Cobb of Birmingham
Ala. and one son, Mr. M. J. Ward
of Edison.
Just a week prior to her death
she left her daughter’s home here
to spend some time with her son
in Edison. Mrs. Mobley reached
the bedside before the grim leaper
summonsed the patient. Mee
dames Todd and Cobb were detain
ed at their respective homes on ac
count of illness; but all the others
gatbeted at the stricken Lome and
followed the hearse bearing the re
mains to the Union Primitive Bap
tist Church, iu this county where
after an impressive service by a
minister the casket was lowered to
its final resting place beside the
grave of her lamented husband.
Mr. J, L. Tabb of this city was
the funeral director.
Large crowds from here, from
Edison and from other places at
tended the funeral.

Dear Mrs. Toole:-
Please send me the Liberal,

ished at G. N. 1. C. this spring,
and knows ail tne Colquitt girls
who finished then. She's a sweet
girl.
1 have been inclined to feel the
symptoms of home sickness, since
;I heard they were all sick. I do
Lope they will soon be well again.
B’s coming home about the 20th
and you might know we’re glad,
guess I’ll go home then.
How is Willie? I sincerely hope
she’ll soon be O. K.
The population here is 1600.
The churches though are rather
weak. The Baptist is much strong
er than the Methodist and Presby

Mrs. McAllister said many of the
people just simply would not. go
to church here. I’ll go often tho,
as I’m right near the Methodist
church.
Don’t forget to send my paper.
Give my lovn to all,
