WAR SAVINGS BOARD IS
ORGANIZED IN COVINGTON

At a meeting held in the Business
Mems Club headquarters Thursday
night, War Savings Board for Tip
ton county was organized Peter
Fyfe, chairman, presided at the meet
ing. The work was divided, and the
following chairmen were placed IN
charge Of the different branches Of
the work. H. r. Batter, for city; B.
O. Duggan, city schools; II. II. Rob-
ison, county schools; R. A. Clark,
ministers; Finis Crunk, labor or
CARNATIONS; Arnold Maley, bankers;
Alison Simonton, publicity. The above
chaiTmen were elected as the execu-
tive board for the War Savings Board
in Upton county.
A War Savings Club was organ
lied, the chief requirement for mem
bership being the ownership Of a
War Savings Stamp. A list of the
members of the War Savings Club
will be published at a later date.
Tennessee is not measuring up to
expectations of the treasury depart
ment in the purchase of War Servings
Stamps. More than one month of the
years campaign for the sale Of Thrift
Stamps is past, and less than one
fourth Of the proportionate quota
for chat period has been disposed
Of. The States quota is $46,000,000,
To reach that aggregate prior
to the end of next December, the
sales must average now $4,00O,O0O
. month. Can the bad start be renI-
edied? That is the question that is
appealing to those public-spirited,
self-sac1ificing men who are giving
their time, abilities and energies ex-
elusively, and without compensation,
to the cause of thrift and the effort
to win the war through promotion
of economy among the people.
AIT conference of the managers
Of the campaign in Tennessee a few
days ago, the causes for Tennessee's
failure to date were analysed, and
some startling conclusions drawn. 1t
was shown that, while mothers of boys
in training camps and in the trench
es are going about among their neigh
bors begging people to save their
small change and lend it to the gov
eminent so their boys NAV have RI
files and bullets and clothing for
their protection while m@king war
against the Hun, these neighbors are
going carelessly about the usual rot
tine Of life, buying with ordinary
prodigality and even wastefulness,
and spending all their money on
themselves id the most selfish and
unpatriotic manner That less than
half million Of the War Savings
Certificates have been disposed of in
this State up to this date is suffi-
Gent commentary upon the prevalence
Of slackers in the old Volunteer State.

First Methodist Church
Robert a. Clark Pastor.

Preaching next Sunday morning
and night by the pastor, followed by
the monthly communion service. Sun
day school at $50 a. m.
On account of the scarcity of coal,
we will not fire the furnace at night,
but instead will hold the Epworth
League at Glib, and the regular
preaching service at night in the din
ing room in the basement, where we
can heat the room with a heater. We
can accommodate large congrega-
ton very comfortably in this room at
night, and at the same time we can
save coal by not firing the furnace.
Let it be understood that we will use
the main auditorium Of the church
at IL a. m, but the dining room, or
Mrs. Gibbs classroom at night. IF
the weather is suitable at all Sun
day, let our people try to come, since
we have been hindered so much on ae-
count of the bad weather.
