MS. Sistrunk describing places she
recently visited in East Tennessee,
in speaking of Rogersville, Tenn,
states that lit has the only ebbing
and flowing spring in America and
there is said to be only one other
such spring in the world, and that
one is in Germany. The Rogersville
soldier boys over there are Ietermin-
ed to blow it up before returning
home, thereby giving to their home
city unrivaled distinction OF having
the only ebbing and flowing spring
on earth"
There is an ebbing and flowing
spring in Marion county, Fla. 1t is
located in Government Lot /, Section

of mile from Lake George.

streets and disgracing the uniform,

AMERICAN BLOOD
VETS TRENCHES,

There are some tremendous lessons
to be learned from the present status
of the world strife.
One of the most momentous Of them
all is q lesson to America and Amer
icans-a lesson to you and me-a
personal lesson which we shall do
we'll to accept in its fullest, personal

DIVIDUAL INTEREST in this war.
The blood of American soldiers is
wet upon the trenches, and the base
hospitals are ministering to Ameri-
can wounded. The shadow of the
Death Angel, made In Germany
has fallen across your threshold and

THE WAR, THE FARM
AND THE FARMER
BY Herbert Quick
Member Federal Farm Loan Board

The farms OF this country could
carry the war to a victorious con-
clusion even IL all the rest of the ma
tions should quit The rest will not
quit; but we could win it without
them 1t we had to do It. The farmers
Of the United States can whip Ger
many. We can whip them with guns.
We can whip them with our products
We can whip them with our money.
Every farmer in the United States
must remember that the war has a
first mortgage on every cent he has.
The last spare cent in the pockets Of
every farmer in America should be
devoted to the war.
The Kaiser began foreclosing his
clared ruthless submarine warfare
The war is our answer to his bill OF
foreclosure.
Our contribution is, first. our sons
and brothers for the trenches; sec
ond, the last pound of food products
which we can grow by mObilizing our
scanty labor supply, utilizing the men
women and children and the towns
people about us; and third, money
for Liberty Bonds.
This is the crucial year Of the war
Our soldiers are at the front, hun
dreds of thousands Of them in the
trenches. and a million more ready tC
go. The whole burden Of carrying or
our own part in the war, and of aid
ing our sister nations in arms, rests
on the United States Treasury.
II the treasury fails or falters OF
finds itself unable to respond to ever,
call upon it, the war is lost. Do yor
realize that?
Your son. and all the nations son:
are relying on the United States
Treasury to furnish things with which
they may fight.
Their lives are lost II the treasury
fails. Our country Is lost II the treas
ury fails.
Germany wins II the treasury fails
Therefore every cent you can rake
and scrape together belongs to thu
treasury, that our soldiers may come
back to us alive and victorious. Thi,
is literally true. We can whip tn,
Germans with our money; but no
with the money in our pockets O
bank accounts. It must go into tn,
United States Treasury in subscriI
tions to Liberty Bonds.
