Develop the Community Spirit

Develop the Community Spirit
 That spirit which builds and improves.
 Look around you for the many needed improvements in your neighborhood. start something organize.
 You and your neighbor, youl neighbours neighbor, together can improve the section in which you live; and forthwith devel- op the Community Spirit.
 This Community Spirit is con tageous, it spreads like wild fire; and soon will develop into the Spirit; the whole city working together to improve. build and advertise our town.
 The start was made by an in dividual, spread to Community, developing finally into united Citizenship.
 The usual source ot the Com munity Spirit arises from Home Building. New. modern homes, or moderniZing the old ones, call for changed conditions. Then, too, every home builder has more than ordinary interest in the welfare of his Community. Naturally every builder wants the streets, the schools, the parks, the car facilities to meas ure up to his modern home. Therefore, horne builders start the Com munity Spirit.
 If you think your community needs awakening, wake up your self, make some needed repairs on your home; paint. repair, inn prove, then call on your neigh bors, a start is all that is needed, you'll find plenty of sheep to fol low. A leader. but few leaders.
 Be Community Leader, A Builder, help develop the Com munity Spirit, and you'll help Carlisle grow.

over their departed friends, then crooned a slow and solemn march as they too, in the last throes of life's fitful fever, approached the tomb. Here and there in the gar den was seen a rose, lonely thing with faded petals that ex- haled an insipid and decaying fragrance as it mourned the
 passing of it's companions and yearned to join them in the great beyond, where flowers bloom perennially.
 Twas a sad old world. hope. less earth, that lay helpless and parching in the heat of a Sab bath day in June; and as the peo- pie moved about fear filled every heart and restless, despairing anxiety was seen in every face. The people thought of the armies in Europe and of the armies soon to be there. They shuddered be fore the throne of high prices like covering demi-gods befoi e a laundering love, and they trembled in terror as they read again and again the reports of drouth and failure of crops in so many parts of the world. They thought of whitening gardens and weak. unhealthy cotton, and of the great corn crops which but few days before waved its green black blades like bene- diction over a needy world, but whose promise of golden harvest was scorching away under the fierce rays of maddened sun. And they cried. "Oh. if we could only have ram" they looked into the heavens, but only the ethereal blue greeted their anx- ious gaze-nOt a smile of prom ise, but sterner sun moving maiestically over a pathway of planets.
 But as hope died away d cloud not much larger than a mans hand was seen in the northwest It grew and it blackened until it sombered the whole cerulean vault. Then, like far off cannon ading, the mutterings of distant thunder were heard and light hing drew it's keen rapier and plunged it into the mass of lurid cloud--streaking the arched vault with ribbons of furnished gold. Then the gentle batter of the rain was heard upon the roof and

dollars much larger than the initial loans of any of the other nations engaged in the war but it was raised in much less time wiVh much less. effort and was subscribed to by a vastly greater number of individuals; this too when danger was far from us and the nation in calm frame of mind.
 The coming second issue of Liberty Loan Bonds, with the great mass of the people of the country much better educated as to Government bond issues and Government finances in gen eral, it is reasonable to suppose, will be disposed of with even greater success than the initial issue.
 The over subscription to the initial issue of over billion dol lars augurs we'll for the success of the next loan. There are sev- eral million more investors in Government bonds in America than there were month ago. Then there were some three hun. dred thousand holders of United States bonds; now there are over four million. And the thrill of the thought of our soldiers in France will rally the people to the nations call.

foolish fears were turned into songs of hope. It was but an in fant rain-only a foretaste of what the heavens held in store a loving assurance that the foun- talns of mercy were not dried up, to soothe and refresh no more. Then the sun came out again, but it was a gentler, a kindlier sun. It turned the rain drops on the leaves and on the grass into sparkling diamonds; then its fan shaped bars turned the oceans blue to gold-then it tinted the evening skies witff prophetic glow and sank behind the western hills. Then the an gels came and drew the curtains of a restful night. It was not a night of astral glorie S, for all the constellations had put out their lights that the worlds blessing might come in darkness. The sea harnessed it's cloudy charlots and, as soft as a moth CTS lullaby song, came in rythmic, measured beats, the rain from heaven.
 And how sweet the breath of the rain. Sweeter than the kiss of a blue,eyed baby, sweeter than the smell of milady's new. washed hair. sweeter by far than the spiced winds of Arabia or the jasmined zephyrs of the south is the breath of the rain as it steals into the chamber of sleep fresh from the vivified leaf and the resurrected rose. It is as delightful as the surbeams that steal through prison bars to cheer the lonely and the sad. In all the attars, in all the distil- lations that perfume and fra grant the earth, there is no in cense that so gladdens the peo pie of parching world as the breath of the rain. It is the aroma of the skies; it is the ful tillment of Gods promise to man.
 Now don't you wish that you lived in Honey Grove?

Our Financial Strength

Two billion dollars is tremen- dous sum of money. Yet the American people have loaned their Government that much and have barely touched their re sources. The money was raised so easily it only seemed to show the tremendous financial strength of the country.
 It is not one-tenth of our bank deposits. It is less than one eighth of our bank loans for one year. It was less than one half of our national savings for 1916 and only five per cent of our na. tional income for that year ac. cording to estimates.
 Not only is this first Liberty Loan Bond issue of two billion

The Breath Of The Rain

Editor Jim Lowry of the Hon ey Grove Signal. yields facile pen. When subject impresses him, he writes the reupon, and the result is seldom common place. It rained out at Lowry s town the other day. The rain was providential. Honey Grove was about to become bone dry. The editor did not stop with the mere chronicling of the down pour, but he made every reader of his paper appreciate that rain as an individual blessing, even if he did not live in Honey Grove. Lowry's description of the heav- en. sent shower makes us wish we could have just such a rain. Here is his story:
 The ground was dry and parch ed, as a fever-stricken patient whose lips are glazed by the steaming breath heated by the raging furnace within, even so the great Assures in mother earth pleaded for a cooling draught.
 There was no glitter or glow in the cornfields, for the wither- ing drouth had turned the gold en banners of the great cereal crop to dull drab. and as sallow maidens, they hid their faces from the worlds cruel gaze. h the garden the struggling toma- to vines looked with sorrow upon the bean rows that had already crumbled under the rays of the parching sun, and as their lives slowly yielded to the same icono- elastic heat they sang dirge

Retail Delivery Methods
Become More Systematic

The commercial economy board of
the council of national defense reports
substantial progress in its campaign to
reduce deliveries of department and
other retail stores and cut down the
abuse of the returned goods privilege.
Within the few weeks which have
elapsed since the board made its first
request to merchants to economize in
their delivery systems to aid in COM
mercial rcadjustment for war pur-
poses it's recommendations have been
carried out in whole or in part in 80
different cities with a combined popu-
lation of about 100000 people. This
means that more than a third of the
total urban population of the country
is already affected by the boards
work.

Automobile Radiators.

To assure the efficient operation and
long life of your automobile 1t is es-
sential that the radiator be kept clean.
Every radiator has been designed for
the purpose Of dissipating some OF the
heat from the engine to prevent it from
overheating. The radiator can only
accomplish this, advises the Popular
Science Monthly, when the radiator
cells are cleared Of mud, so that the
comparatively cool air can circulate
through 1t. Yet many are the cars
which are allowed to clog up with mud
and dirt until 1t almost takes a ham,
mer to knock them out. A good antidote
is powerful stream Of water from q
hose, or where this may not be con-
venient stiff brush or broom will
assist in solving the cleaning problem.

We have two clear duties: First to
substitute other commodities we have
in abundance for those that we can

If in this way we can reduce our aver
age consumption per person pound
of wheat flour, 2 ounces Of fat, z of
sugar and 2 of meat per week, and if
we use our milk carefully and without
waste, we can maintain our own peo-
pie on a full diet and can still supply
the deficiency in our allies food, for
when these apparently small individ-

gantic proportions and offer a COM

We must remember that every flag

food necessary for their armies and
ours, and for their men, women and
