to all employees Of the federal gov

trict began today. While the district
is far short of the amount hoped for
in h first two weeks of the cam
pafgn, the committee expresses con-
fdence that the sum will be raised
before October 81. To accomplish
this it will be necessary to sell bonds
at the rate Of $500. 600, 900 a day.
About 10000 bonds in the smaller
denominations have been received
from Washington and were placed on
sale throughout the city today with
the idea of attracting cash customers.
The Liberty loan campaign entered
into the schools of the city today when
. corps of twenty-six speakers adj
dressed pupils in the various grades.
The plan was the outcome of CO.
operation between Liberty loan head
quarters and the educational authori-
ties Of the city and was carried out
with apparent effect judging from re-
marks from a number Of children fol-
lowing the short speeches.
At 11:15 the speakers appeared in
the schools, being introduced by TIL i
principals or teachers, and then called
the attention of the children to cards
'hich had been distributed in the
lass rooms, with the following in
oription:

Than At Ruling Empire

London, Oct. 15.-According to a
Petrograd dispatch. Nicholas Roman
off, the deposed Russian emperor,
passes a great deal Of his time in
playing whist, Of which he rs very
fond. In pre-war times whist was one

for his exclusive use. Over 1900

used every year, and they cost the
Russian government about 81 a pack,
being made Of the finest linen rags

September. The news that he had a
large gum of money in his possession

Cost of Manual Training Material.

Cost or Manual Training Material.
AS in the school election of a year
ago, the cost of material used in the
manual training work of the public
schools has been made an issue. This
is adduced as an evidence of extrava-
gance. Even were the contention of
the DIRECTORS granted, the item is so
small as to cut no real figure in the
total expense of the schools, for last
year the total cost of the whole
years work was only $55.19, and
this year so far is $54.70. This
small amount is we'll spent in the
training and practice the pupils get
in handiwork, as the parents of all
pupils who have taken that study
will testify. But the further fact is
to be considered that the material
for the work done by the manual
training department does not cost the
school district a red cent. for the rea-
son that the cost is all collected from
the pupils using 1t. Last year, Tor
instance, the lumber bought cost
s55.19, and the amount sold was
S72.16, leaving a profit to the district
of 1857 on material. This year the
lumber bin is $54.70, with 5000
worth so far sold. and $2S.21 worth
still on hand, to be used and collect
ed for during the remainder OF the
school year.-West Union Argo Ga
