To Our Subscribers

Dear Subscriber and Friend:
We ale asking this favor OF you
in the interest of our business, AND
trust you may be able to grant our
request for aid.
Here is the whole thing in a nut
shell. The young man who has
been the Recorder compassion, LETT
us last week, having secured a more
lucrative position. His faithful!
services will be greatly missed and
it is impossible to secure experience d
help to take his place.
You all know the labor situation:
The farms, factories and munitlon
plants MUST 90, and thus labor has
been withdrawn from many So
called nonessential industries. The
Recorder has no help and don't
know where to get it. NOW
RIGHT HERE is where we 60 right
down on our knees and come to you
with all honest and sincere heart
and ask for your help.
The Highland Recorder is bound
to progress, and to do that we must
have Linotype, a machine that
will mechanically set the t. pc and
do away with the constant worry
of gettiag competent help. We
must do it because we cannot lind
help to fill the place which has been
made vacant. We need $500 cash
for the first payment, and if every
subscriber would pay his arrearage
to date and another dollar to set
the date ahead another year, we
could pay the first payment and
considerable of the principal. Won't
you please, help us, and show you
are a booster for the Highland Re
corder, as we are for you?
The writer has never come to you
in this manner before, but as some,
thing must be done, and done
quickly, we humbly ask for your
help ard cooperation. Will you help
us be sending the amount due and
adding another year? Every one of
you will reap the benefits in the in
areased capacity TO put news into
type with the new machine. Please
mail check or money order by re-
turn mail. You are welcome tt
pay as many years in advance as
you may wish; our acknowledge
ment of appreciation and receipt
will be mailed you.
Please help us now.
Sincerely yours.

No Time fur fessimism

Don't be pessiuistic. This is no
time for it, The pessimist may be
patriotic, but in giving expression
to his gloom he borders Eclosely up
on sedition.
Be optimistic. Look to the
brighter side. Don't give away to
doubt. We are going TO win this
war, that is as certain as that the
sun shines in May.
The other day the President ask
ed "whv limit the army to $780,
| 600 menu" He answered by saying
it is the first duty of the United
States to win the war.
In saying that the President was
not speaking for himself alone, his
voice was the voice of the American
people.
Twelve months ago there was a
difference of opinion here about 60
ing to war, but that difference has
been practically wiped out; IL Is
seen there had to be war. and when
the American people 60 into war
they 60 in, to win. =.
One thing is certain, that is if
Germany is going to win it must
be done this summer. With the
Kaiser this summer; it is now OF
never. He must even now see that
hope of victory for him has gone
glimm ring.
Most people saw it in the failure
of the Germans to successfully carry
out the drive begun two months
ago. Nothing much was gained
in territory, and what was gained
was at fearful cost. What has thus
been gained is graveyard covered
over with human blood, and most
{ f the blood shed has been German
| lood. Eek.

Dentist Useful in Army,

At the beginning of the war, the
dental surgeon, so far as the allies
were concerned, was not officially rec
ognized in army circles, says Popular
Science Monthly. Indeed, it was not
until the Germans marched into Brus-
sells, with q dental post every ten kilo-
meters, that the allies appreciated the
Importance Of oral hygiene.
Today there are II American dental
field ambulances in France alone,
Men who were formerly sent home on
sick leave, whose only trouble was
their molars, are now kept ut the
front. Soldiers to the number of q d.
vision and q half have thus been
spared to the army. Furthermore, the
surgeons insist that wounded man
with bad teeth makes slow recovery.
And then, too, army rations are hard
TO masticate, so that the man with
Door teeth "bolts'' his food and loses
strength and endurance. In our new
National army there will be dentist
for every 500 men -

Channel Ports.


With the American Army in France.
Troops of the new American army
.are arrived within the zone OF the
"!itish forces in northern France and
re now completing their training in
.Ae area occupied by the troops which
re blocking the path Of the Germans
o the Channel ports.
Their commander already has COM
i.Ianded American forces in trenches
II The French front. The British oft1-
r@ys and men who are training the
Jew force say the Americans are OF
tie finest material and are certain to
give a most excellent account Of them
selves when they meet the Germans.
The British troops greeted the
Americans not only as comrades in
arms, but as warm friends, and the
work of instruction is being continued
in that spirit. The American forces on
arriving within the British zone were
ciicered to the skies by the sons OF
Eritain, many Of whom bore unmis-
taxable signs Of battle. They had not
seen the Americans before, but they
knew they were coming.
The Americans, on the other hand,
canned all the more enthusiasm by
he heartiness Of the greeting which
they received from their battle Scared
comrades in arms. The last stages OF
their training before entering the line
were begun almost as soon as they
reached their destination. =,

This result not only exceeds every

What It is. The united effort Of

ton. Salvation Army, to. raise at
least $170.5OO. 900 for the welfare of
the soldiers in the camps OF this
country, in transit and overseas.
Why IL is. Priest Wilson seq
gested the combining Of the seven
appeals in one because the services
rendered by these agencies TO our
army and TO u allies are especial
" one and all OF a kind and must

2-The amount asked for was

department.
Each organization will receive
a prOpOrtionate amount Of all the
money contributed. according TO its
budget.
4-The money will be used 10 min

ity. under the present stress OF war
necessities. 10 assist the men in these
essential matters.
6-This appeal should have a
hearty response from every one who
IS concerned for the welfare and
comfort Of the men, and for the
morale Of the army.
The unexpected enlargement OF
the military program since these
budgets were submitted has in
creased, beyond expectation. the
demands upon the resources Of these
organizations, and II is essential that
a large over subscription be made
S-Granting. for the sake Of argu-
ment. hat an armistice may soon
be arranged the appeal OF these or
CARNATIONS is the more insistent.
Relieved from the stern business Of
lighting the needs Of the men for So
cial and recreational activities will
be greater. and the facilities Of all
welfare agencies will be taxed to the
utmost limit.
The Limitation of public gather
ings has prevented carrying out the
program Of meetings, and we must
depend upon the public press for
bringing the essential facts OF the
campaign to you. Watch the papers
every day and you will learn more
particularly of the work.

Editor the News-Times:
Mr.. Edgar Anderson is a candi-
late for state senator on the repub-
lican ticket for this district. l no
tice the local G.. O. p. copperhead.
pro-German sheet is advising the
voters of this district to vote for
him with the other G.. o. p. can
didates, TO make laws for the citi-
zens of this state 10 live under and
obey. 1 wish 10 inform the public
through your paper that in my
opinion, after an acquaintance of
several years with Mr.. Anderson,
that he is an unfit man for the po-
sition he aspires 20 hold. Also, that
ne will get very few votes from
people who are we'll acquainted
with him.
I feel il my duty to warn the citi-
zens of his senatorial district
against voting for a man of his
views or mental capacity. AS an.
illustration Of his pro-Germanism,
I need to only inform you hat he
was called on the carpet by a fed
eral official and warned TO keep his
mouth shut or he would be dealt
with by the government. II APP
~parently did no good as a short
time later during a conversation
with me ne called Pres't Wilson a
vile name not At TO print (the morn
ing paper had stated that three
American merchant ships were
sunk the day before by German
submarines) and said he was glad
of il and hoped they would sink
every damned boat the Americans
sent 70 France or England,
For this I feel that Mr. Anderson
should be elected TO stay at home.
I feel very strongly hat every voter
this coming Nov. 5 should scan
very closely every candidates men
tai capacity whether he is a demo-
crat or republican. and be very
careful not to vote for any Hun or
Hun sympathizer. or any man not
mentally qualified 10 hold the office
