her The funds thus raised are to
help the Wings of America" At
different points all over the United
States aviation schools are being es-
tahl;shed where our boys and YOUNG
men are being trained before goinc
to France. These are the boys for
whom this Treasure and Trinket Fund
is being raised. Of course everybody
wants to do their bit in this great
crisis OF our country, and here a
chance is given to everys man, woman
and child to help.
1T has been said that this war Will
he won by airplanes. Every soldier
and sailor is thousand times safe,
in this terrible war if he is fighting
under the protection of the "Wings
q the United States" No money IS
wanted. no money is asked, not one
cent. In every home there is some
thing that can be melted into ingots
OF gold and silver, some discarded
trinket or broken bits of silver, and
these will help to win the war It IS
hard to realize just what these scraps
of precious metal will do for our coun-
try and our fighting men.
England has accomplished wonder
full things this way Vast amounts
have been raised in England by such
gifts from those who thought they had
nothing worth selling. America can
do even more. Already this fund is
started in many places in the United
States. Let Newberry county not be
found wanting in doing its part in
this great war.
Remember no Money is wanted. 4
committee will collect for this fund,
let everybody be ready with his or
her contribution. Below is list of
what is asked for; old gold Or silver
thimbles. chains or links of chains,
cigarette cases, match boxes, scarf
pins, odd cuff links, studs, gold or
silver tops of umbrellas or canes,
watch charms, old watches, broken
spoons, forks, or toilet articles, In

utility Of Arguments,


As no men are created equal. all ar
guments, IL INDUCED in. must be car
rted on either with superior persons or
inferior persons. Viewed in this way,
the utter 6utility Of all arguments be-
comes apparent at once.
First, 1t Is futile, of course, to carry
on an argument with q superior per-
son, because, being superior, he will
have such complete contempt for your
opinions that he either will not listen
to you at all or else he will listen with
a patronizing smile and Immediately
dismiss from his mind what you have
to say as not worth consideration.
1t is easily futile to argue with an
inferior person. for II you have any
thing to argue about worth the time
of a man Of your standing and mental
capacity. then it is absurd to waste
talk upon an inferior being who will
not be able to appreciate it. Thus are
disputatious people isolated from the
world. and there is no help for it.
