IT'S COMING HOME

For three years we have looked on
as interested spectators while all
Europe was rent and blown asunder
by the most terrible conflict of which
man can conceive. Some of us have
known from the very first that this
was our fight.
Our military authorities realized at
once that brave little Belgium in offer
ing her last drop Of blood in de
tense of democracy was fighting for
the safety of the United States OF
America as truly as she fought for
her own and her allies safety. But
this view was not shared by our pco-
pie. We were inclined to look upon
it as "their" fight, European dis
turbance in which we were not con
cerned.
We were terribly slow, almost dis
asterously slow to realize that this
fight is our fight, that if we do not
take the dare now and fight with our
allies on foreign soil we will soon be
forced to fight this iron monster sin
gle handed on our own soil.
We hope we have not delayed too
long already.
The last few days have brought
home to us n keencr realization of our
situation than we have felt before.
We are beginning to realize that
the privileges we have enjoyed and
taken as a matter of course are going
to cost something. Because a great
monarchy has waXcd strong and aro-
gent we are compelled again to battle
in defense of our liberties.
The ii%nt that our grandSircs fought
14O years ago must be fought again.
The great roll of honor has been
called. Those who are again to take
up arms in defense Of American libcr-
ties have been designated. From the
names now being published selections
will be quickly made Of those destined
to follow in the steps of their revolu-
tionary forcbcarS.
- In many homes in this county, as in
every State in this great nation there
is some fear and even CONSERVATION
as tnc IIuln Is IcailHtu IIlal SOil
must go cover there and take part
in that terrible conflict. And SO it
is that the war has come to Chester
field County.
Nearly as many brave boys have
volunteered as will be called by sclcc-
ton, but this did not bring home to
us the obligation that every man owes
to his country as did the publication
Of this great list.
We can begir to sec that some Of
the suffering Of our glorious allies is
going to be ours. We are to have a
share in their sorrow.
God help US TO meet with bravery
and devotion the privations and auf-
ferings that are before US,

This man is akin to the food hog

of the extravaganza of the Wash

unnecessary and wasted food at tha.

twenty-five Belgian children. He a.
serted, however, that "a nation that
can raise nine hundred million bushc!;
IF corn in a year is in no danger oC
starvation, but that we shall need FOR
our allies more food than We have
ever had need Of before"
The danger seems % be in ovrr-con.

food.

LIFT YOUR CORNS

Tells how to loosen a tender corn or
callus so il lifts out without
pain.

You reckless men and women who
are pestered with corns and who have
at least once a week invited an awful
death from locwjaw or blood poison
are now told by a Cincinnati author
ityto use a drug called freezone,
which the moment few drops are ap-
piled to any corn or callus the sore
ness is relieved and soon the entire
corn or callus, root and ali, lifts off
with the fingers.
FrceZonc dries the moment is is ap-
piled, and simply shrivels the corn or
cGllus without inflaming or even irri-
tating the surrounding tissue or skin
A small bottle of freezone will cost
very little at any of the drug stores,
but will positively rid ones feet Of
every hard or soft corn or hardened
callus. II your druggist hasn't an.
freezone he can get it at any whols

He spoke Of a dinner in WASHINGTON

yet, he said, they were discussing the
high cost of living while they were
eating this extravagant meal. The
amount they paid for it would have
