she saws:
.More sober, less inspiring, ocs
every whit as educational as the pro-
gram OF thrift and service TO which
the Minute Girls-who may be bes:
described as Campfire girls at nome
and at school-have pledged their
support. These children are taught
what they are quite old enough TO
understand-that ames of war call or
sterner qualities than times Of peace
and plenty, and that they must be
prepared to meet new conditions with
new courage and new efforts. They
are not, for example, to dawdle over
breakfast, and then hop on trolie
car to get to school. They are -
start earlier, and walk. They are n>s
to spend Saturday afternoons
matinees and moving licture shows

If the weather be stormy. They ala
not to waste anything that can be

candy and ice cream sodas-which is !
wise reform. The increased cor-
sumption OF candy in the past fe"
years has been regrettable from every
point OF view. There is fevertsn

WHAT THE ARDMOREITE DID IN THE
SECOND LIBERTY LOAN CAMPAIGN

The second Liberty Loan campaign in Carter county
Subscriptions far OF the quota were
very of things compelled to do rather more
than their share.
The Daily Ardmoree is a shining example of the last named
class.
While Secretary McAdoo perssteny refused appropriate
cent for advertising depending the gen.
erosy the newspapers and of the banks and other ns
tons provide this needed he the thoga-
pher the bill and the railroads his travelling speakers
The federal banks spent hundreds of thousands OF
dollars clerical help printing and postage and publicity mat
ter prepared which the newspapers were asked to
lpatrotcally print
Ardmorete printed just 1880 lines of and editorial
and worth of display matter without cost to
one This aid in building up prestige for Ardmore
and The Ardmoreite is pleased with the result
But is fair to ask newspaper to bear the burden
Here is the service rendered during the twenty days the
paign in progress
Fory-two articles the front totang 1885 lines
Editorial page articles amounting to 556 lines.
News articles other pages 551O lines.
Free display advertising, 1913 inches.
Front and editorial matter not for sale at any price,
but had this matter and the other articles been charged
for card rates we'll the free display advertising the bill
would have been S1378.
One page advertising The Daily and Weekly Ardmore
ite paid for the bill being S1O5
We will leave to you what percentage of this campaign
paid for but it would that $3.50 basis should have
been plenty strong enough.
The Armoree gives these figures for the information of the
public and with the hope that it will deter the unthlnklng in
their criticism newspaper will do nothing unless paid
that in future campaigns there will be disposition to
at least avoid riding free horse to DEATH.
The daily newspapers New York city paid $35SOOO

sng placed by public spirited citizens the Standard Oil and
