A.SoLEMN OBLIGATION.

Several days ago committee was
appointed in each of the communities
Of Maury county to aid in selling the
second issue Of Liberty Bonds These
men we're drafted into the service OF
their common country and a solemn
obligation rests upon them. The ma
ton has the same right assuredly to
their service in this line that it has
to draft the youth for armed service.
1t has the same right to command the
services Of these men that it has to
command the services of men in this
and other states in councils of de-
tense, in food conservation and other
activities, all of whom are serving
without one dollar of compensation
and at their own expenses.
But many Of these committeeman
have never even made any kind of
response to their appointment. They
have shown no sort of interest in the
crisis which confronts their nation.
They have been as deaf to the appeal
for service from their nation as
though the summons had come from
the car of the Hottentots. And yet
this is their country. Everything that
they have in liberty and in property
is at stake. Every one Of these men,
appointed to perform a solemn trust,
owe 1t to their country and to the
thousands of young men who have
been sent to camps and battlefelds,
to respond and 60 to work in their
several communities to sell these
bonds.
This is not the time to be a slack
err" The nation requires the service
of every one called to the discharge
of particular duty. There can be no
lodging and no evasion. No one can
have any reasonable and proper ex
cuse for refusing to do some service
for the country now. The names of
the committee have been published
AL the members have been notified
of their duties. Every one of them
should communicate at once with
Chairman Fulton, Of the central COM
mittee and pledge an active response
to the nations call. They are just as
effectively drafted for service, if they
pretend to be loyal to the nation, as
are their sons and their relatives and
their neighbors who have been drafted
into the armed forces Of the nation.
Do not brand yourself as a Stacker
in Maury county.

WOMAN IN BUSINESS.

Never before in the history of the
world has woman had such an oppor-
tunity as is offered to her now. The
educated women will be called upon
to step into the shoes of thousands of
men. The college bred woman will
be sought after. The moderately edu-
Gated woman will be sought after, and
the woman that has even a grammar
school education will have her place
that is thoroughly equipped will stand
in the business world. But the woman
out alone and outshine her less quail
fed sisters.
Not only are the opportunities good
now, but they will be better year or
two years from now, and perhaps ten
years hence. If this war continues
there will be untold opportunities.
There are girls now in school, who, if
they stick and apply themselves will
step right from the school room into
o. pldSC vi Iudt Will pay luSlll

Men will be taken from all lines Of
business. Only recently man was
drafted into the army from hard
ware store in New York City; and his
sister stepped in and took his place
She had to. The brother was the
bread and meat for the family. The
sister had to take his place and be
the bread winner, while he goes and
fights for her liberty and for the lib.
erty Of the future generations.
Could you take your brothers place?
This qnuestion should be asked by
every girl of herself If you feel that
you are not capable of doing so, then
you should lose no time in preparing
yourself for the place that he is now
Milling.
There are some examples right here
in our own midst. At the last call for
men from Columbia a young married
man was taken from his position and
his brave and heroic wife, who was no
stranger to her task, stepped back in
to harness and is now making her own
living. while her young husband is
preparing himself to go and fight for
his country and against our common
Zoe.

5e a good platform for every Ameri-
can citizen to adopt at least as long
as the war lasts.
1t is patriotic for man OF leisure
20 give his time to one of the numer'
Gus war cause organizations. 1t Is
patriotic for a man Of wealth to give
of his means to the Red Cross, the
army Y. M. C. A., the army library

war causes, and to buy big blocks OF
Liberty Bonds. The men OF leisure
and the men of wealth are to be com

duty But the efforts and contriDu-
tons of these men can never be as
praiseworthy as that of the men with
out leisure or wealth who are doing
the same things.
Until a man has performed some
service that is actually inconvenient
ae has not fully served his country.
It has been inconvenient for many
men who have volunteered or have
been drafted for military service to
leave their homes and business. 1t

who are giving their time without

have contributed from their daily
earnings to the Red Cross, the army

Patriotism that does not involve in
