LAYS diplomatic pouches, Swedish Of

the mail may contain secrets rival
ing the Luxburg affairs. Swedish rep

den is highly indignant because the
privilege of cabling to Stockholm in

Although no official stand has been
taken, Sweden has been informed

to opening the pouches if the con-
tents are harmless.
One Swedish official declared.
This is an indignty to which we viii
not submit. It's absolutely essential

We communicate confidentially with

Swedish Minister Ekingren gave
Counsellor Polk assurances that mail
contained no Luxhurg disclosures.
The seal ON the pouches was un-
broken. The British officials stated
the pouches are being held because

Notice in Regard TO the Cues
tiOndire.

We, the undersigned members of the
Macon bar respectfully call the atteu-
ton of the citizens of NoXubee county
to the requirements made of the mem
hers of the bar,
The Bar was drafted to assist with
their counsel in the filling our of the
blanks of the QUESTIONABLE wherever the
person drafted does not understand The
question.
We wish to state that we are willing
to do our part in this matter, but on ac-
count of the numper in the county it is
imdossible for the members of the bar
to go further and fill out the entire
QUESTIONABLE.
There are 1900 to whom these Cues
tionaires will be sent and they must be
filled out in the next q days.
1t takes on an average of one hour to
fill out one QUESTIONABLE. All the men,
bers Of the bar are not in Macon all the
time and those who are not in Macon all
of the time and those who are left do
not have 1900 hours time within the
working days.

The Fragments.

The men who wcrc responsible
for floating the first Liberty Loan
said that the greatest difficulty
they had to meet lay in convincing
people Of small means that the
success of the loan depended upon
them rather than upon the people
Of wealth; in other words, that the
loan would be nOated by thou
sands of fifty dollar bonds rather
than by the few fifty thousand
dollar subscriptions,
One of the greatest lessons that
war is teaching America is the
value Of small sayingS-not money
savings alone or chiefly, although
the value Of those, too, has been
astonishing. A working girl who
thought that she had nothing to
give the Red Cross decided that
She could save her pennies, and
found to her amaZemCnt that she
had nearly nine dollars to contri.
butte at the end of a year. Today
the government and the patriotic
organizations Of various kinds are
suggesting so many ways of saving
that even the poorest child can
have the JOY OF giving somewhere.
In one city where the children
col lect newspapers the sales
amounted to five thousand dollars.
Red Cross melting pots afford an
opportunity for gifts of every sort.
Clothes, Old linen, rubber and
metals, books and magazines all
are being gathered up aud utilized
us never before. 1t is splendid
training for eXtrayagant America.
SO far, however, the average
person has done most of his saving
in material things. Is it not pos
Sible that by careful planning
those of us who say regrettully
that we should like to help but
that we have no time could save
the time also If we r~eSolutely set
about it? The half hour after din
ncr at night, for example, or one
evening IA week or even a month,
definitely set apart and used to its
fullest, What of Sundays there
no time on that day that could be
invested to better purposes
In the awful suffering of the
% world today there is need for ev.
crything-every hour of time, ev
cry gift of mind and heart and
soll.
May our minds and hearts
through the coming year grow
more and more keen in discovering
or own poSSCsSionS-in utilizing
ever the smallest of them. The
Masters word of two thousand
years ago has a deeper message
than ever before in history:
Gather up the fragments
that nothing be lost. Elk.
