WHO SAYS Il DON'T CARE?

Some men are spoken Of as "big
men," others as little men," Per-
haps the principal distinction Is in the
fact that while the ''little man" pom
ders and discusses, loses himself in
maze of side-issues, and thinks of
hundred reasons why he should not
act, the "big man" sees the vital issue
Ignores the nonessentials, and acts
promptly and decisively. The Liberty
Loan is testing thousands of men to-
day, and determining in which class
they are to be enrolled. Little men are
discussing the rate of interest and the
outlook for business and investments,
airing their personal or political obiec-
tions to the Administration and certain
of its policies; questioning the proprietv
of methods. Big men realize that these
questions are about as important as last
years weather. Big men know that
the vital issue IS whether we shall or
shall not show Germany that we are in
earnest in this war-that we intend to
wage it to a completely successful
issue, whether it takes one year or ten.
whether it costs two billions or twenty
billions. They know that nothing will
do so much to shorten and cheaper it
as some proof of our unalterable de-
termination.
The German people have been told
that we care only for trade and money
that our heart is not in this war-that
many of US disapprove of it. Now thev
have the first opportunity to find out
whether these statements are true or
untrue. They know that if we are in
earnest their cause is lost. If we are
not in earnest, it will pay them to 90 on
fighting, with certainty of a fairly
satisfactory settlement and the DOS
sibility of triumph. Every American
who can subscribe to a little and does

OAKLAND'S FINE EXAMPLE.

Oakland and Oakland's patriotism in
subscribing so literally to the Liberty
Loan, has placed US on the map as an
example for all other Maryland towns
to follow as suggested in an editorial
appearing in the Baltimore Sun of
Tuesday following the public meeting
here Monday in response to the appeal
made by the Maryland Liberty Loan
Committee of which Mr.. R. E. Sliger
of the First National Bank is county
chairman, and representatives of all
other banks in the county are members
But the Sun did not go far enough in
its highly commemorate editorial. 1t
overlooked other and far more impor-
tant phases of the war spirit which has
called from nearly every walk of life
and from many homes the young man
hood of the county who have enlisted
in the Army or Navy so that the
liberties of those lett behind and those
vet to be born may be preserved.
What does a hundred thousand dollars
in money amount to compared with the
life of any young man who has receiv-
ed every advantage in the power of
his parents to bestow and which may
be snuffed out as candle flame? The
Suns editorial was a splendid tribute
to the people of:Oakland, and is as fol-
lows:
From the action of the people of Oak
land in subscribing for SCI, 600 worth of
bonds in q few minutes time, after
listening to addresses from the Liberty
Loan Paul Reveres who are riding
through Western MARYLAND, it is ap-
parent that all Maryland needs to do its
full duty in this connection is a little
stimulation.
Now. let the other towns bestir them
selves to beat the Oakland record, and
let the Oakland people come back with
more subscriptions And let those who
have subscribed make themselves mis-
sionaries to go out and get other sub
scriptlonsl The time is short, but there
are still three more days. The value of
an achievement is not to be measured
by the time of its performance. man
may betray his country, or he may make
his name imperishable. in a minute. A
nation may be saved in three days.
MARYLAND must acquit herself honor
ably in this matter. That can be as
sured if every man in the State does
his uttermost in these three days. All
together, then, for the final charge.

ANNIVERSARY OF BIRTH OF FLAG

Today, June IA, marks the one hun
dred and fortleth anniversary of the
American flag. an historic day which
appeals to all patriotic citizens, and
especially at this time, when the United
States is engaged in a war for the
liberation of mankind from autocracy.
The American Flag Association, with
headquarters in New York. and COM
posed of prominent citizens and flag
committees from patriotic societies,
formed in 1879, proposes a celebration
of the anniversary on an elaborate
scale.
Here is the act of Congress which
gave birth to the flag:
That the Flag of the thirteen
United States be thirteen stripes, al
ternate red and white; that the Union
be thirteen stars, white in a blue
field, representing a new constella-
tion." The number of the stars have
been increased by the admission of
new states. The possibilities of the
nations future development dawned
upon our fathers. The original thir-
teen stripes continued for several
years and were then changed, after a
few years only were unchangeably
restored by act of Congress on April
4, 1918, when it was enacted That
from and after the fourth day of july
next the Flag of the United States be
thirteen horizontal stripes, alternate
red and white; that the Union be
twenty stars, white, in blue field. and
that on the admission of a new state
into the Union one star be added to the
Union of the Flag, and such addition
take effect on the fourth day of July
next, succeeding such admission. The
Flag has so continued ever since.
Since the struggle of 186l-l865 the
Flag has become the symbol of a
mighty nation. 1t has been carried to
the utmost parts of the earth. carving
liberty wherever 1t has been thrown to
the breeze.

Provost Marshal General Issues
Orders to This Effect.

That 1t is the intention of the United
States Government to hunt out and
prosecute each and every man in the
State between the ages of q and 81
years who failed to register on Tuesday,
June 9Th, is wholly manifest in the fol-
lowing letter from Sheriff Albert Ash
by, of Garrett county. and which was
received at this office on Tuesday. The
sheriff has received telegram which
directs HIM to make an aggressive and
vigorous campaign" to round I'D all
'slackers" who failed to present them
selves at the registration booths.
The sheriff letter follows:
To the Editor of The Republican:
l have lust received a telegram,
which reads in part as follows:
To Albert Ashby, Sheriff,
Oakland, Maryland.
The Governor has been directed by
the Provost Marshal General to invite
your attention to Paragraph Sixteen of

further, if you are a male between
your twenty-first and thirty-first birth

dent; and if you fail to present your
self, you give false, misleading or in
correct answers, YOU are guilty of a
misdemeanor and subject to punishment
by imprisonment in Jail, to which
punishment there is no alternative of
fine, and shall thereupon be duly regis
tered.
| wish to say, Mr.. Editor, that
fully believe that those arrested and
forced to register will be more likely
to be placed under draft. This is no
child's play. 1t is the most serious
proposition ever undertaken. The cor
rect age of each will be found out. and
any statements or oaths made with
reference TO ages which are not true
and bona fide, will be punishable. The
eye of the Government is upon every
one, and there is no escape.
|, therefore, give this notice of what
has been communicated to me, as my
attention has been drawn to some few
who have tried to shun registration.
and now order them TO go to the Office
of the Clerk of the Circuit Court, Mr.

fail the burden is upon them and for
which they will have to answer to the
law of their country and carry the
humiliation of the disgrace through
life.

Sheriff of Garrett county and Executor
of Board of Registration.
