Station for a tuort vis-it to Camp Lee. traveling via, Harriaburg, Washington, Baltimore, and Richmond. Oi their trip they 3ay: On cur way we stopped in Ilar risburjr tight hours. We viewed the Cupitol building and paid a short visit to relatives in that city, which we enjoyed very much. We arrived at Camp Lee at 4 o'clock Thursday afternoon. We found the cantonment a beauti ful place, but learned that most of the SOt.h Division had left for over-sea duty. As most of our Fuito'n County boys are included in this Division we did not get to see :".any we knew, but as far as we could learn the boys are all getting along well. We were with Charles E. Bar mont most of the time while in the Camp. Earl says, "Tell my friends I am out of the lluspital again, that I send them my best wishes and I hope to be able for duty in the near future." We found good conveniences for visitors both around the Camp and i n Petersburg. Hotel rates were very reasonable. Returning, we left Petersburg at 5 o'clock Saturday morning, stopping in Washington.

We arrived home at 1 o'clock Sunday morning. Tho trip was very tiresome out we were treat ed fine, and all enjoyed it very much. II. L. Barmont. ThJ Prfcaary Election. Outside those directly inter ested in the outcome, there was but little interest manifested in the Primaries and the vote was light. Li the Republican fight Sproul won the 0 ivernorship nomination over O'Neil by a sweeping majoiity, and Bonni well won over Gully in the Dem ocratic, which cf course, means that Sproul will be the next Governor. Bor.niwoli is an out-and-out "wet" man, and the "Dr.vs" are not any too sure ab;mt Sproul. In this Congressional district, Focht was an easy winner over Williamson for tho Republican nomination and Auckor h:id no didi mlty getting on tho Demo cratic ticket, which of course, docs not mean much in this dis trict. This Senatorial district being safely Republican, the fight lay between Endslcy for a nomina tion, and Miller, a new man. The new man (Miller) ran on the Re publican, Democratic and Prohi bition tickets, and while we do not have the official vote, the chances are, thr.t he has more than fifty per cent of the vote, and is, therefore, practically el ected now. Miller is a good man. In thia county, Clem-Chesnut i . i i 1 1. . r- nnu a clear tracx lor me jjemo cratic nomination for Assembly, and S. A. Neahit and George A. Corncrer, put up a scrap for the Republican nomination, with Cornerpr winning the place on the ticket. . SIDHLINfl KILL.

Take Gare of Y our America's greatest need is for ships more ships. Every available vessel is being utilized in government service. Many ships that have been carrying rubber from Sumatra and Brazil have been taken for active transport duty. The number now left to bring rubber to this country is extremely limited. This will necessarily force a temporary curtail ment of tire production. So, make the most of the tires you have. Use good tires. Take good care of them. Keep them in perfect repair. Sec that they ate properly inflated. Increase their mileage by careful driving. Keep out of car tracks and away from bumps. Don't scrape the curb 'Usco' Tread or apply brakes too suddenly. Get every mile your tires have in them. v Only in that way can you be assured of your car's contin uous serviceand remember, your tire is a vitai war-time necessity.
