RAILROAD TIME TABLE.
Necessary Boys
Join the Marii
Washington, May 4.—Although
United States Marine Corps mi
the announcement on April 28
they had reached their then autho:
ed ‘ war strength of 17,400 men,
necessary men were secured t
weeks before that time, and were
der training.
Two brothers who were anxious
be “first to fight” were enlisted
Friday, April 13. They were Ro
Z. and Thomas B. Necessary, sons
Mrs. Sallie Necessary, of Red
Texas.
"The response of red-blooded Ami
leans to their country’s call for
tlonal marines has been pa
gratifying,” said Major General
Barnett, * commandant of the marine
corps, “and we anticipate no difficul-
ty in securing the 12,600 which are
likely to be authorized any day, and
for which recruiting has already been
started.”
A Southern Volunteer.
Yes, sir, I fought with Stonewall,
And faced the fight with Lee;
But if this here Union goes to war,
Make one more gun for me!
I didn’t shrink from Sherman
:r As he galloped to the sea;
;But if this here Union goes to war,
Make one more gun for me!
I was with ’em at Manassas—
The bully boys in gr8y;;■
I heard the thunder roarin’
Round Stonewall Jackson’s way.
\ u And many a time this sword of mine
Has blazed the route for. Lee,
But if this old Union goes to war,
Make one more gun for me!
I’m not so full o’ flghtin’
Nor half so full o’ fun
As I was back in the sixties,
When I shouldered my old gun.
It may be that my hair is white,
Such things, you know, must be, *
ut if this old Union’s in for fight,
Make one more gun for me!
J haln’t forgot my raisin’,
Nor how, in sixty-two
‘Or thereabouts* with battle shouts,
I charged the boys in blue;
And I say. I fought with Stonewall
And blazed the way with Lee,
And if this old Union’s in for war
Make one more gun for me!
—Atlanta Constitution.
TEN DOLLARS REWARD.
To the Public:—
I have gone to the trouble, and the
county to the expense, of properly
marking ofT for the mile boards, and
the erection of sign boards, at all
the cross roads, “keep out of the rut”
signs, etc., in Precinct No. 1. I will
persofaally give 810 for the arrest and
conviction of anyone guilty of shoot-
ing, mutilating or defacing any of
the county’s sign boards or mUe
boards. j. B. Wynne,

Postal Clerk Fired.
Washington, .May 3.—The postofflee
department yesterday announced the
discharge of Edward J. Ryan of Bos-
ton, a railway mail clerk, and presi-
1 dent of the Railway Mail Association,
a postal union, for issuing what the
department regarded as false state-
ments regarding its recent policy of
reducing the length of runs.
HOW TO GET STRONG
---------9:45 a.m
A Simple Remedy.
Whatever the cause, we want to
say to every person who needs
strength, you need Vinol as it is the
most efficient strength ’ creator we
have in our store. Here is proof from
Dorchester, Mass.:—
“I don’t know w’hat we would do
without Vinol in our family. I was
weak, nervous and run-down as the
result of an operation, and Vinol re-
stored my strength. Then Grand-
mother had a nervous breakdown, and
\ inol built her up and restored her
health and strength after everything
else had failed. We have used Vinol
for 13 years in our family, and would
not be without it in the house."
Myrtle L. Healy, Dorchester, Mass.
We believe in Vinol because we
know it is a great strength crea'tor—
due to the beef and cod liver pep-
tones, iron and manganese peptonates
and glycerophosphates, all dissolved
in a pure medicinal wine, so we al-
ways return the purchase money if
Vinol fails to benefit those who buy
it. Bratton Drug Co., Palestine, also

So*oC Salve
tu i«u
His Northern Brother.
Just make it two, old fellow,
I want to stand once more
Beneath the old flag with you
As in the days of yore
Our fathers stood together
And fought on land 'and sea .
The battles* iierce that made us
A nation of the free.
I whipped you down at Vicksburg,
You licked me at Bull Run;
On many a field we struggled
When neither victory won.
You wore the gray of the Southland,
I wore the. Northern blue;
Like men we did our duty
When screaming bullets flew.
Four years we fought like devils,
* ~ ' ^ * I ♦
But when the war was done
Your hand met mine in friendly clasp,
Our two hearts beat as one.
And now when danger threatens,
No North, no South we know,
Once more we stand together
To fight the common foe.
My head, like yours, is frosty,
Old age Is creeping on;
Life’s son is lower sinking,
My day will soon be gone.
But if our country’s honor
Needs once again her son,
I’m ready, too, old fellow,
,So get another gun! ,

Year of Strikes.
There were 3,160 strikes and 108
lockouts during 1916 in the United
States. Probably there w.ere more
strikes'than in 1915, although there
were less lockouts. The employers | I have both potatoes, grown and
and to show their discontent by strik
ing. Higher wages and shorter hours
were the causes of two-thirds of the
strikes last year, while a large pro-
portion of the remainder was due to
causes connected with unionization.”

Retreating to Victory.
An intoxicated man hailed a cab.
After he had climbed in, the cabby
leaned over and asked, "What street
do you want?”
"What streets have you?” he in-
quired.
“Lots of ’em,” smiled the cabby,
humoring him.
“Gimme ’em all,” he said, waving
his arm grandly.
After they had been driving for
several hours, the man in the cab
ordered a stop.
“How much do I owe you?”
“Seven dollars and fifty cents.”
“Well,—you better drive back till
you get to thirty-five shents, ’cause
thas ball I got”—Illinois Siren.
Fighting With Potatoes and Beans.

the fact that the potato and the bean
pole are more valiant than the spear.
won in 471 ai^d the employes in 706
Strikes; 70 were arbitrated and 542
compromised. Practically every oc-
cupation was involved somewhere.
"The year 1916,” says an, expert of the
federal bureau of labor statistics,
“will long be remembered as the year
of strikes. The scarcity of labor and
the rapid increase in the cost of liv-
ing seems to have caused wage earn-
ers to feel that they were not getting
their share of the present prosperity
ready for action, and the bean-poles
are supporting the beans, which are
later to help support the army.
Yes. we. are to win the wat with
these, and old mothei^earth needs to
bfe speeded up to produce them. Why
shouldn’t everyone respond to this
call to grow things? The government
is not asking you to grow these for
the army, but to grow them for
yourselves, that their equivalent may
be released to the army. Feed your-
, trenches. So I have accepted the
challenge. A few days ago I went
forth and killed potato bags; and in
the doing of this I was serving the
country as much as if I had gone forth
with gun and killed Prussians at the
battle front, because I am helping in
the great scheme of providing and
conserving the food supply of the
world, by which the war is to be won.
True, this country will be
upon to send men to the flghl
front—thousands of them—and at thi
same time we will be called on
furnish potatoes, wheat, corn, beans,
etc.—tons of them. I want to con-
tribute my mite—to do my part.

Proper Question.
A negro was recently brought into
police court in a little town in Geor-
gia, charged with assault and bat-
tery. The negro, who was well known
to the judge, was charged with hav-
ing struck another ‘-unbleached Amer-
ican” with a brick. After the usual
preliminaries the judge inquired:
“Why did you hit this man?” c
“Jedge, he called me a black ras-
caL” .V
"Well, you are one, aren’t you?” 1
"Yessafy, I is one. But, jedge, s’pose
somebody’d call you a black rascal,
wouldn’t you hit ’em?”
“But I’m not one, am I?” -
“Naw sah, naw sah, you ain’t one;
but s’pose somebody’d call you de
kind o’ rascal you is, what’d you do?”
