NEEDS MEN IN SOUTHERN CAMPS ’ While Red Triangle Continues to Call for Oversea* Workers, 1,000 Are Wanted for Home Service Atlanta, Ga„ August 25. —Men en dowed with the element of leadership , are needed by the Army and Navy Y. M. C. A. to serve in the camps of the Southeast. Dr. W. W. Alexander, general re cruiting secretary for the War Per sonnel Board of the Y. M. C. A. War Work Council, declares that there is a pressing need for home service, and i that this affords a splendid opportun ity to the man of middle age who is not able to go abroad under the Red Triangle. “The Y. M. C. A. needs men for overseas service, of course, but the home camps must not be forgotten,” explained Dr. Alexander. “From now ' on until the first of the year the • Southeast must recruit 1,000 men for I the home camps. This means that , each state will be called upon to fur nish 25 men per month per state to serve the soldiers in camps such as Gordon, Jackson, Wheeler and the others. The constant growth of the home cantonments and the growing demand for the Y. M. C. A. work makes it necessary to recruit “Y” Workers for this side.” AMERICUS / TIMES-RECORDER.

Meadorsville, Ky.—Mrs. Pearl Pat rick, of this place, writes: “I was very constipated. 1 had sour stomach and was so uncomfortable. I went to the doctor. He gave me some pills.

I heard of Black-Draught and de cided to try it I found it just what 1 needed. It was an easy laxative, and ! not bad to swallow. My digestion aoon ( improved.
