- I . ' CHRISTMAS CHEER RUSHED TO EUROPE j American Soldiers and Poor Children to Have Yuletide Celebration. , New York. ? Christmas cheer for the people of the war-torn nations of Europe, refugees in the Near East and American soldiers abroad is going forward through this port in greater volume than ever before. Postoffice officials here estimate that the volume of the 1920 Christinas foreign mail will approach twice the amount of previous years. Thousands of packages have already been received here from all parts of the country and postal officials prepared for an unprecedented rush during the first two weeks of December. The bulk of the mail, officials state, is being sertt to .Germany and Poland and comprises principally foodstuffs and clothing. Italy and the Balkan states will also receive large shipments, with smaller amounts going to France, England, Norway, Sweden, Belgium and the r Latin-American countries. In addition to the Christmas packages going direct by parcel post and by express, various American relief organizations are planning to bring something of the season's spirit to many thousands of destitute children. The Near East Itelief has made elaborate Christinas plans fof the refugee youngsters, in the Near East and the Red Cross has planed cheer for children in the various district in which it is operating. The volume of soldier mail this year has materially decreased over recent years because of the withdrawal of most of the American forces from" Kurope. The several thousand "doughboys" still on the Rhine will l>e well remembered, as a large shipment of gifts has been accumulated at the Army Transport Service in Hobokcn. Soldiers serving in the Canal Zone, Hawaii, the Phil i i t >ii i i lppines ana /viasica win aiso oe remembered. Some of the vessels bearing gifts for these men sailed during November. Men of the navy, wherever stationed, will also be the recipient of Christmas gifts from home and the Navy Department has made special arrangements to give each man the maximum opportunity for a "merry Christmas." Co-operating with the Junior Red Cros^i, Secretary Daniels of the Navy Department has ordered a vessel to take Christmas gifts to thousands of Dalmatian children. This action was ^ taken upon recommendation of Admiral Andrews, in charge of American warships stationed in the Adriatic. Two thousand pairs of shoes and stockings, thousands of cans of condensed milk, hundreds of bars of chocolate and toys from Red Cross warehouses will go to destitute children in Northern Italy and in Jugoslavia. The Near East Relief has made arrangements whereby United States sailors and marines stationed in Turkish waters are to make Christw no worru for thousands of children. I 1IIC40 mvi j - w? Each of Uncle Sam's fighting men , there has been asked to "adopt" a child and provide some kind of a Christmas present. A Christmas tree with elaborate exercises will be placed in the Near East "Relief Tuberculosis Hospital in Constantinople. 9 In Harpoot, where there are (>000 Armenian orphans, another tree will be provided by the Neat1 East Relief organizations. At Batum, on the Black Sea, where conditions are at their worst, the population is looking forward to a shipnemt of 1,000 tons of flour from America to add joy to the holiday. The flour left here November 23 and is expected to arrive before Christma?. 6 , # " Sutherland Furniture Co. will move into its new quartern the first of the new year.

Washington, Dec. 15.?As predicted some time ago, the fight in congress over the question of whether the representation in the house from Georgia and South Carolina shall be increased one member each, giving Georgia 13 members and South Carolina 8, or whether the present number shall be reduced because of the negro question, has already come to the front. The bill of Representative Siegel, of New York, would increase the membership of the house from 435 to 483, Mr. Qeigel being ehairman of the house committee. Mr. Larsen, of Georgia, is also a member of this committee from the Democratic side. This increase, Mr. Siegel said, is proposed as a basis of discussion and does not at any time represent anything definite that has been agreed upon. If this bill is passed it will be necessary for the states of Georgia i The Only V Your 4" -'A I IS TO CARE If you can not do it, can save you money on every other way.

On Saturday morning, October 23, 1920, at the hour of 8 o'clock, the ieath angel came and called Walter Asbury Turner, the oldest son of Mr. ^nd Mrs. T. M. Turner, away. He ! was borned October 16,1903 being 17 years and 7 days old when he died. He was taken to the hospital at Florence October 21, 1920, where he only lived a short time. Me was ill about two weeks with pneumonia of the lungs. He bore his suffering with pntienre; he did not complain nor grumble. Walter was a good boy *n<l loved by all who knew him He had a winning and loving disposition. It was very hard to give him up, but sve mourn not as those who have no hope, for we believe that Walter is resting in the arms of Jesus. There was no trace of the sting of death on the beautiful face, as he lay in his casket. He was laid to rest in the Bayboro cemetery, to await the resurrection morn. He leaves a father, step-mother, five brothers atad one sister and a host of other sorrowing friends and relatives to mourn the loss. His mother preceded him to the grave about four years. r*u _n i-- 1-- * vii) niciy wc h11 ut- reuuy to meet | dear Walter 011 the golden shining shore, where sickness, sorrow, pain nor death are felt and feared no more. All was done for him that loving hearts and willing hands could do, but none could stay the icy hands of death. May the life that he has lived be an example for his father and brothers to follow. Won't that be a happy meeting With the dear ones passed away; Oh, the joy of that reunion In that land of endless day. Walter, thou art gone and left us, And our loss we deeply feel, But the God who has bereft us He can all our sorrows heal. We.can't forget dear Walter, Hut we love him more and more; Such love draws us nearer To yonder shining shore.. A dear one from earth is gone, A voice we loved is stilled, A place is vacant in the' home Which never can be filled. Asleep in Jesus, blessed sleep, from which none ever wakes to weep. His loving aunt, DOC1A DAWSEY. o Some who ride over our roads for the first time come here and say, -wnat is me matter with your roads?"
