REV. BOYCE TAYLOR
LOSES PAS7ORA7Er
Re'isuatiou Of Murray Baptist
Preacher is Accepted BY
His Congregation.

Paducah. Ky, May o. The
Rev. Boyce Taylor, pastor of the
Baptist church at Murray and
Moderator Of the Kentucky Bap-
tist Assembly, who has from
time to time been charged with
being against the government
in the prosecution Of the war,
has been deposed from his pas
torate.
Taylor recently resigned as
pastor, but the congregation re-
fused to accept his resignation.
Last night at prayermeeting the
action was reconsidered, and by
a vote of 40 TO 20 it was decided
that his services were no longer
needed.
In addition a resolution was
adopted declaring the Baptist
church at Murray in full sympa.
thy with the government war
aims.
Taylor has been the center Of
much criticism in this section
within the past year, owing 10
hls attitude toward the war. He
published articles in his paper
here urging against the purchase
of Liberty bonds, and 10 alleged

Charges of disloyalty TO the
government in the prosecution
of the war have frequently been
made against him, and recently
a business house in which he was
interested was painted yellow
during the night.
1t is claimed by friends Of
TAYLOR that he is a conscientious
objector.
At the last meeting of the
Kentucky Assembly, when he
was elected moderator, resolu-
tons of loyalty of loyalty were

burn WOOD
and SAVE COAL
An Appeal to The Patriotism And
Thrift Of Farmers And
Villagers.

LOOK tne situation squaYely in
the face; these are war times
and our country is short of coal
so, 600, 900 tons short. We min
ed $4,000, 900 extra tons last
year-but it was all used in
manufacturing ammunition and
war supplies and firing battle.
ships and transports. We are
still short of coal. The railroads
can't possibly haul as much as
we need. And we are facing
another shortage next winter.
| Part of the shortage must be
made up by the use of wood in
stead Of coal. There is plenty
of wood in the eastern and
northern stats, millions of cords
Of it uncut, ready to be chopped.
But it is practicable only for the
use of farmers and villagers.
Munitlon plants cannot burn
wood, warships cannot burn it,
nor, because of the transporta-
ton problem. can people living
in cities. 1t would not help
matters to try to ship wood by rail 1t
is too bulky and cars cannot be spared
for carrying it. You who live in lthe
rural communities should cut wood for
your next years fuel. This is your
job. You can save huge quantities of
coal if you will cut wood, arrange your
heating systems to burn It, and make
it your business to see that your COM
munity is awake and doing its bit.
The farmer who drives an empty wa
gon to town and drives back with a
load of coal is driving in the wrong
direction. He is a Stacker. We don't
need that kind.
The man who would like t. burn
coal because it's easier and handler.
but who thinks enough of his country
and the "boys over there" SO that he
shoulders his axe, spurns the winter
wind and goes out to cut wood in or
der to save coal, is helping to fight the
war.
Rural schools and churches, as well
as homes, should restore the old wood
pile and make themselves sure OF
warmth next winter.
This country has lots of wood and
lots of Drawn and muscle with which
to handle it. Don't allow this year
neglect to result in next years suffer.
ing, when little forethought and q
little added energy will mean comfort
IN your own home and in that Of your
neighbor.
Start the movement. Tell othe,
people about it. The progressive. pa.
triotic men in each community must
stir things up. Go to work now and
see that enough wood is ready and
seasoning for next years use to take
care of the community's wants.
This isn't time to think of profits,
yet wood can be handled at a very at.
tractive margin. You know your own
local conditions better than anyone
else. But whether YOU make a wood.
cutting bee-or go at it as a business
enterprise. CUT WOOD! DON'T
FAIL TO CUT WOOD!
SAVE COAL TO FIGHT THE WAR
SAVE COAL TO BACK'oUR BOYS
CUT WOOD
SAW WOOD
BURN WOOD
LAY UP WOOD FOR NEXT WIN.
TER!
