SO. The first dose lightened her spells.

Saturday Holidays
A Thing of the Past

At a meeting of the executive
committee of the Cleveland
County Council OF Defense it
was voted to ask that every
able bodied man from Is to As
put in six full days work each
week.
There was also appointed by
the chairman a secret service
committee scattered over the
county to report disloyal remarks
assist the food administrator and
the labor committee, to see that
the six day week be observed,
with instructions to publish the
names Of those who refuse to
comply with this order.
The Government is short at
this time over a million unskilled
laborers and those who cannot
find work enough at home to keep
them busy will have an opportu-
nifty to enter government service.
1t is expected that one person
can come to town to purchase
supplies and that old habit of
all hands leaving the farms and
losing Saturday they will be
expected to put in full day Sat-
urday the same as any other day,
as it is going to take every hour
of work on the part of every
citizen, added to the lives of our
Boys in France to win this war,
and there surely is no one in
Cleveland County who wants to
be counted Stacker.
Those who employ or furnish
labor on the farms, mills, etc.,
are requested to assist in en-
forcing the work order and to
report to Tom Blodgett, Chair
man of the Labor Committee,
any cases of violation; or notify
j. II. Henderson or Leon Moore,
who are also members of the
Labor Committee.

HIGH SCHOOL ITEMS

The closing OF the Junior Red
Cross drive under the leadership of
Miss Sutton, Chairman of the Chap
ter School Committee, was celebrated
in the High Schol auditorium Feb
ruary %, with a program consisting
of drills, tableaux, readings and
songs of patriotic character by pu-
pills of all the grades and the high
school. The features of the pro-
gram by those outside the school
were a talk on the purposes of the
Junior Red Cross by Mrs. George
Philip, Jr., Chairman of the Hays
Chapter, and songs by the male quar-
tet of Hays. The report of the Jun
ior Red Cross membership for the
grades of the public school was given
by Miss Sutton and the report for
the high school by Mr.. Lee. The au-
ditorium was filled to its utmost
capacity by pupils and patrons of
the school and many stood in the
halls.
The service flag of the high school
was hung on the wall of the hall on
the first floor Washington's Birthday

C. L. DAVIDSON,
State Chairman Liberty Loan
Winning of the War

That the winning of the war does
not rest entirely on the boys "over
there" or on the departments at
Washington is brought forcibly to
our minds by the following extract
from a speech by Food Administrator
Hoover:
"The situation calls for the coop
Grafton of the public during the next
sixty days through the quick loading
and unloading OF cars, loading them
to capacity and discharging them
quickly and IN every way reducing
the tax on the railways.
Cooperation can be given IN the
reduction IN consumption Of home
and local stores to the exclusion so
far as may be Of transported articles
eff every interest co-operated we
the distribution of our abudant Of do
mestic supplies, for our farms are full
of food stuffs." Food Administrator
Hoover.
The appeal in the first paragraph ap-
plies directly to what the railways of
the country term long haul freight
and also to the local shipper, or short
haul freight. That this matter has
received the consideration of the
Federal Government is evidenced by
tn fact that the National Council Of
Defense has as a part of its organi-
zation a Highways Committee. This
Committee is urging that all local
freight or that under 200 mile haul
be transported by motor truck 1t is
a well known fact that these trucks
can only be operated at their maxi
mum efficiency on hard surfaced
roads. The direct conclusion can on
ly be that the Federal Government Is
urging the American Patriots to push
the building of hard surfaced roads
as a war measure.
In the second paragraph Mr.. Hoo
yer appeals to the people Of our eoun-
try to raise every possible bit Of food
stuffs that is used on our tables. To
grow, IN our little back yard garden
and In our farm garden all that can
be grown and In that way relieve the
railroads of an appreeiable amount
Of short haul freight. To eat our 10
cal products and thus conserve for
the winning Of the war the food stuffs
