(Patriotic Honor ROLL

The following list of girls and
boys Of Ebenezer Graded School are
actively participating in the War
Savings Campaign In an effort to aid
our government in making the world
"safe for democracy" each child
whose name Is given below having
purchased War Savings Certificate,
or Thrift Stamp in various amounts.
Seventeen full five-dollar War Saw
ings Stamps were purchased in our
school. Each child seemed anxious
to do something to help break Hin
denburg's line. Another thought,
too, seemed to prompt a united eff
fort on the part of the children-the
thought that they, by saving and
lending to the government, were
helping to provide warm clothing for
our soldiers in the trenches
We wish to call attention to the
fact that some Of these War Savings
Stamps we're purchased by little
tots In the primer class. Inasmuch
fants to the bottom Of the ocean, we
think the purchase Of War Savings
Stamps by our little tots a fitting an
swer.
The work in our school has been
accomplished by the hearty co-ope-
ration of the patrons and all teachers
of the school. Our literature, etc,
was received from the Charleston
office on January 10, and we were in
structed to report to Hon. J. w.

Some Army Figures.

There were 1,428,G5O enlisted men
and t1O,865 officers in the United
States army at the opening Of 1918,
more than one and half times as
large as any force ever before mobil-
lied by this nation, according to a
statement by the Secretary or War.
During the war with Spain the
army OF the United States at it's max
imum strength aggregated 272,0O0
men and officers. The army in the
field and IN training now is practi-
cally six times as great as the maxi
mum number under arms in the
Spanish-American War.
About $4,000 officers we're COM
mlssioned from civil life in the two
series of training camps-nearly
eight times as many as the number
of officers in the Regular Army on
April /, 1917.
