MUCH "FAkE" IN STORY.

Washington, II. e., u 4.-AlthOugh
the government will tolerate no resist
2nce to the draft and is taking such
steps as 1t deems necessary to meet
resistance, no doubt ia felt that the
situation will be met without any great
difficulty. Officials take the view that
many of the reports which are getting
into pSint about organized resistance
are exaggerated.
1T is felt that for the most part the
ordinary court processes will be ade-
4uate. To q considerable extent the
opposition to the draft comes from
pacifists and believers in socialism,
persons from whom serious organized
resistance is hardly to be expected. Per-
sons familiar with the Oklahoma situa-
ton said today that they did not ex-
pect any extensive opposition to the
draft there. They look for lukewarm-
country's call from h pacifist ele-
ments, but they express the view that
there is a good deal of imaginative
writing going on about the troubles
there.
On the whole the Of
ficials feel we'll satisfied with the way
the process of raising the new army
is going.

OPEN YOUR PURSES.


Maury county is asked to give
$1,000 TO the war work council Of the
Young mems Christian Association. 1t
should give not less than $4,000 to
this laudable purpose. There must be
NO faltering upon the part of the peo'
pie. They must make sacrifices and
make them generously. The brave
soldiers and sailors who will be the
beneficiaries of this magnificent fund
are all that stand between the people
here at home and the barbarous Huns.
They alone stand between our boosted
civilization, our enlightenment and our
liberty and the dsepotism and deprav-
ity of the ruthless German autocracy.
Surely the people of Maury county,
prosperous to degree never before
known because of the war, can give
generously of their substance that
their brave defenders, thousands of
miles away from home and family may
be protected; may keep the home ties
and may be comforted. The roll of
Maury's honored dead will begin to
come in ere another twelve months
nave passed and in that roll may be
some one near and dear to you Now
you have an opportunity to at least
: have in the hour of gloom the consola-
ton that you withheld nothing from
that boy that would contribute to his
comfort, would make for his efficiency
and would help to keep him close to
the eternal truths of the Christian re-
figion.
There are more than four hundred
OF the gallant sons of this county in
the uniform of their country now
Surely we can give at least twenty
ave dollars to each of them that they
may have the great, the inestmable
benefits Of the Young Mems Christian
Association, the tie that binds our
camps and our trenches to home and
God. Maury county oversubscribed it's
allotment of funds to the Red Cross |
The plea that is made now is just as
necessary to the comfort of the sol |
diers as that which was made last |
June for the Red Cross. The glorious
record made then should be sustained. |
More than seven thousand dollars
should be given now.
This is really an opportunity for
service for those who remain at home.
Many of them could rot. if they want
ed to, go to the front and fight in this
holy cause. But they can assist those
who have braved every danger that
,ur liberties may not perish from the
Earth.
1t will be better, Infinitely better to
i'll soldiers grave on foreign field
han to live in this country after this
var is over if this nation does not
achieve victory in this glorious con-
est, For those who die in our holy
ause will have the satisfaction of
moving at the final hour that they
ave their all They will not live to
witness the diabolical outrages that I
viii be perpetrated by the conquering {
Iuns upon their loved ones in this c

THE SUBSTANTIAL TOTAL
OF $25O9.
COMMITTEE Mt S TOMORROW
Session Will Be Held At O'clock At
kiaury National Bank to Plan the
Details of the Weeks Drive to Sc
cure Seven Thousand.

Maury county's Y. NJ. C. A. war
council fund has now reached the sub
stantial proportions Of S2,509. This is
the total up to noon today and the
systematic canvass of the city and
county will not in fact begin until
next Sunday. These are advance SUBJ
scriptions that will give impetus to
the workers who will go out next
week for the coin.
The largest subscription of the day,
the largest also of the campaign came
from the student body of the Central
High School. There were a number
of small subscriptions and others will
come in from day to day. 1t is the
hope Of the committee that by the
time the actual drive begins on Sun
lay there will be not less than 5000
in sight. This will make only $4,000
necessary to be raised and with the
aid of Mt. Pleasant, Spring Hill and
other communities this should be
easy.
There will be meeting of the gen.
eral local committee at the offices OF
the Maury National Bank at 3 o'clock
tomorrow afternoon to discuss plans
for the campaign next week The
ministers of the city will meet an hour
carrier to outline the work of the
churches during the campaign
The following is the standing of the
fund to date:
