In the two previous Liberty loan
drives many farmers in this section
were overlooked by the soliciting COM
mittees whose time was short, but
with a systematic method for the third
drive which starts April 6, every per-
son in the county will be approached
and asked to invest in bonds. The
farming class of the community, which
has not subscribed for the earlier
loans in proportion with its means,
will have an opportunity to come for
ward now,~ and other classes, which
already have been liberal purchasers,
will be expected to add to their hold
ings, for the loan will be a good in
vestment, and its success is impera-
tive as an aid to the nation in the
carrying on Of the war.

MOUNT VERNON DRAWS MANY
Noted ENJOYS From Allies and Thou
sands of Others Pay Visit to
Washington's Tomb.

Peaceful and stately as usual, Mount
Vernon today seems happily uncon-
Iscious Of the very existence of war;
Yet the war has had it's effect on this
mecca Of America, for more people
have visited it in recent months than
in any similar period in it's history.
Washington, the center of things
military and diplomatic, has since
April 1917, opened it's gates to $4,000
new residents come to take up the
work of government at war; Thou
sands of these Americans take the first
opportunity to visit the home of the
greatest American.
Besides these, ENJOYS from our allies
on diplomatic mission to the United
States make point Of journeying to
Mount Vernon to honor Washington.
They travel as guests Of the nation, in
the presidents yacht Maytlower. The
Mayf1Ower has already made four trips
Of this sort. First she carried Balfour
and Marshal Joffre, then the Italian
then the Belgian and Russian
together, and lastly the jap
anese viscount and his party.
Each time the iron gates of Wash
ington's tomb swung open for these
men to place their wreaths on the
shrine within, while the diplomats, with
the problems of the world on their
paid tribute to the man who
carried similar burdens faithfully and
we'll a century ago.
The record for the largest number of
visitors to Mount Vernon in a day was
very nearly set at the time of the con-
federate reunion, when 1000 of the old
soldiers and their friends visited the
estate in one day.

ALLIES COUNTER DRIVE

The Allies started a counter
offensive this morning by at
lacking on the 35-mile front
from the Marne northward to
the Aisne.
The French communique, is
sued at noon, stated that in
itial gains of from a mile to
nearly two miles had been
made and that prisoners were
taken.
The Franco-American at
tack extends the battle line into
a gigantic fighting front of
nearly 100 miles from Main
De-Massiges, to the region of
Scissors.
Additional American forces
have thus been hurled into the
maelstrom of blood and steel
on the west front. Marines and
regulars are known to be in the
line from Vaux northwestward
to Vinly and it is probable that
numbers of American reserves
have been thrown into this
fighting.
The Allied assault apparently
comes at a time when the Ger
man effort in the Champagne
is at its lowest ebb, the French
report declaring that in this
region there was mo change"
