LOCAL SALE OF SECURITIES
IS ENTHUSIASTICALLY
BOOSTED.
Chairman Reeves and Hon. P.
w. Maer Deliver Addresses
at Franklin Academy.

The local CAMPAIGN for the sale Of
Liberty Loan bonds continues to be
waged in most aggressive manner,
and members Of the Lowndes County
Liberty Loan Committee are deter
mined to raise the full amount re-
quested by the state committee.
Up to last night the total of Liberty
Loan subscriptions in Lowndes county
had reached s60,500; but large ad-
ditional sum must be secured before
the final goal of $415,000 is attained.
Crawford has subscribed its full allot-
ment of $500, and loyal citizens
there expect to materially increase
this amount before the campaign
closes
A big open air meeting will be held
in the business district Wednesday af-
ternoon to promote the sale of the
bonds, The program for this meeting
has not yet been completed, but will
be announced soon.
Parker Reeves, cashier of the Mer-
"hants' and Farmers Bank, who is
chairman of the local committee, has
proven himself to be an indefatigable
worker and hasb tireless in his eff
forts to promote the sale of the Sc
curites. While subcommittee have
been appointed for different rural
communities, Mr.. Reeves has not de-
pended entirely upon them for re-
suits, but has visited in person the
most important outlying towns. He
went to Crawford Saturday, and has
also made direct appeals to citizens
in other towns throughout his juris-
diction.
The campaign has been carried into
the publio' schools. Mr.. Reeves and
Hon p. W Maer, editor of the Co
lumbus Dispatch having delivered ad-
dresses at Franklin Academy, while at
other schools members of the faculties
having been laboring assiduously 10
interest their pupils in the sale Of the

HIGHER POSTAGE
RATES COMING
UNCLE SAM WILL SOON BEGIN
TO CHARGE 3 CENTS ON
EACH LETTER.

Some sagaeious statesmanis snid 70
have once made a remark to the eff
fact that while many people talk
too much, it Is often better to spout
hot air than to write letters; for the
fact that while many people talk
documentary evidence can not be
refuted." 1t is probable that many
citizens throughout the country have
recently decided to accept the advice
of the above quoted sayant, and will
in future do less writing; for on and
after November Uncle Sam will
increase the postage rates on letters
from two to three cents each
The increase was provided for in
the war revenue bill RECENTLY passed
by Congress, and the money accruing
therefrom will go to the fund which
1t is necessary to expend in order to
subdue the German Kaiser and his
beligerent forces
The government is now having a
large quantity Of three-cent stamps
made, and as soon as they are finish
ed every postoffice throughout the
country viii be furnished a full sup
ply In the meantime, commencing
November 2, patrons Of the postal
service viii be forced to attach a
two" and a "one" to each letter
mailed.
