HESSIAN FLY

COUNTY CORRESPONDENT
l am enclosing herewith the last
blank this season, and hope you will
fill it out as carefully as you can for
any insects or plant diseases which
have been prevalent or doing injury
in your community for the past two
months.
At this time / am especially inter
ested in getting information concern
ling the Hessian fly. The prolonged
season is favorable to fly injury, and
farmers who sowed wheat, barley or
rye early, are more than likely to
experience injury from this pest. If
you will be good enough to ask the
editor Of your local or county paper
to make mention of this possible Hes
sian fly attack, asking him to call
the attention of the farmers to it,
and that we will be glad to examine
without charge any plants sent to
US, and make prompt reply of our
findings. This favor would be highly
appreciated and may mean much to
your community in the production of
wheat for next season. Please read
over the enclosed blank and fill out
all that you possibly can at this time.

formation that you have sent US in
the past and trusting that we may
have your future cooperation, ] am

THE RED CROSS FACES A PER-
TOD OF GREAT ACTIVITY.

The question as to "What will the
Red Cross do now, is one that may
be answered in comparatively few
words, but the words cover many
phases Of the work. The Red Cross
Is not war agency; it is an organi-
cation for relief in time of stress and
the reconstruction period following
the greatest war in history is no
time for inactivity.
The work of the Red Cross in war
is universally known; the work now
that war is over. will be conducted
along exactly the same lines as dur
ing the days of active hostilities.
First, the soldiers and sailors over
seas now stand as an emergency re-
serve army and they need all the
Red Cross has to offer of help, of
encouragement and of cheer. AS the
men come slowly home, numberless
difficulties will arise before they can
find themselves in their old places
in civil life; these difficulties, wheth-
en- they touch the home or the bus
mess life the Red Cross will help to
make easy.
The convalescent soldier and the
one permanently disabled will turn
to the Red Cross to be helped back
to health and to be placed in new
industries for which new education
is required. During this time of re-
adjustment the men and Their fami-
lies will often need counsel, encour-
agement and protection, and posi-
bly, material aid at times; all of this
the Red Cross will give.
America is the one country whose
resources are practically untouched
by war; famine, pestilence, danger
and disaster face the countries which
have participated in the fiercest strug
gle known to history. These countries
must be helped as well as our own
and the Red Cross must do the help
ing.
Protection from tuberculosis, from
other forms of disease, from pesti-
lence and poverty, 'frora suffering and
distress must all come from the Red
Cross. The passing of war has null
tiplied the fields of Red Cross activi-
| ty by increaing the need for the Red
Cross a husdredfold.

TENNESsEE'S GOOD RECORD
Executive Chamber

Nashville, Tesn., 12-4-18.
+. To Local Boards:
1. AS the purpose for which the
Selective Service System was crea-
ted ras been accomplished, it is err
pected that in the very near future
the Provost Marshall Generals De-
partment will be closed. Final in
structions have not yet been received.
2. The record that Tennessee has
made in war work is one of whilh
every citizen may be justly proud.
1t has been stated repeatedly by
those in a position to know that we
have the best organization of any
state in the Union. Therefore, it is
the desire of this Office to formally
express its appreciation of your pa
triotic service, efficiency and faithful
cooperation which has contributed so
much to this success.
3. Your untiring efforts have made
it possible to rganize the Nation so
quickly and effectively for mar. Our
ability through the Selective Service
to raise an enormous armf in so short
time has resulted in completely
crushing the enemy powers in Eu-
rope. the overthrow of autocratic
government and the establishment of
a permanent peace. This could have
not been done in anf other manner,
and to those who have participated
in the work of building up this Army
is due the grateful thanks of Ameri-
can citizenship. No higher duty or
privilege has come to any man than
to serve in the capacity that you have
and your service is recognized official
ly and will be made a part of the
permanent records of the War De-
partment.
4. 1t is fully realided that personal
sacrifices have characterized the
members of the Selective Servic Sys-
tenn. Without hesitation, they re-
sponded to their countrg's call and
gave up lucrative business. From a
financial standpoint the reward has
been small; but the conscious salts
faction of duty well performed ard
the gratitude of the Nation should
recompense all who have worked with
one accord for the purpose of win
ming the war.
Is. We realize that in our zeal to
accomplish the difficult task set be-
fore US, we have required from you
the almost impossible which in some
instances perhaps has led to friction
but this we are sure you realize was
only for the purpose of result, anc
any difference that may have ariser
was not personal but merely for thu
good of the emergency.
6. We shall never forget the per
sonal association with our friends i
this work, and it is our wish that W
may maintain some sort of friend
: organization of those who were er
n goged in the Selective Service Sy'
0 tenn in the State of Tennessee.
7. In conclusion permit me to e.
- press the hope that when we sha
have written Finished" on our i
! bors that you may return to the d
ties you so cheerfully laid down al
" lead life of continued usefulne
to your fellowman; and of happine
Is to yourself and family.

Dear old Granger County Folks:
After having been away from home
for more than seventeen years, take
this opportunity of expressing my
appreciation to the Granger County
News and to her noble citizenship
for keeping me posted as to the local
happenings of my old home county.
After my weeks work is ended,
gather my little family around the
fireside and together, we read with
deep interest, line after line, column
after column, and page after page
of the county's valuable paper till we
become familiar with the local hap
penings of the dearest spot on the
face Of the earth and of the grandest

happenings of Punchem Camp, Wash
burn, Tampico, Central Point, Idol,
and many other points of interest
to me, but | often wonder what has
become of Richland, Indian Ridge,
New Corinth, and other
places, where, years ago, taught
school.
THE arrival of the News in my
home is greater joy to me than
Christmas used to be-even when
Santa Claus would fill my stockings
with gum drops and fire crackers,
and would leace me pair of red
top boots with brass toes. News from
any part of Granger county is, in
deed, news to me. Organize your
community and lets have report
from every nook and corner of the
county each week, remembering that
will remove the "blues" fror

GERMAN PUBLIC
TOLD DRIVE BY

Enemy Critic Admits: How
ever, That Chateau-Thierry
Was Lost.
(Ry Associated Press.)

AMSTERDAM, July 23-The Ger
man public is being told by all the
German military experts that the
French and American ambitious at
tempts to break" which. in Baron Won
Ardenne's words, might have caused
a decisive change in the military SIT
uation on the west 'front.' has falleo
because of the famous German sys-
tenn of elastic defense.
1t is explained that the enemy only
obtained the initial successes due to
the fact that General Won Boehm
right flank of two fifths miles, was
not strongly held and his main
strength lay on the eastern flank. Sig
nificant. however, is Baron Won
Ardenne's admission that Chateau
Thierry and scissors were the two
corner stones of the German defense
and that the former has been lost to
the foe, "who was aided by not lncon
siderable American auxiliary forces
The Wolff bureaus correspondent
at the front does not fail to dwell or
the excessively severe losses SUI
fered by the Americans. These los
ses, he says, were dut to the Amer1
cans being mixed for the first time
with "savages and niggers" instead o
. with white French troops as hereto
fore. He said "at many points noun
tains of American dead lie in front o
