WHO CAN GO TO SCHOOL.

The government is offering free tut
tion. board. uniforms and VII necessary
expenses and the pay of private-$30
a month-to all who have completed
the four-year High School course.
There are quite umber of young
men In the county who are very de-
sirous of taking advantage of this
free offer of the government. but un-
fortunately they are not High School
graduates.
This demonstrates very sharply the
great Importance of an eduation and
those parents who are not sending
their children to school are doing their
children the greatest possible injury.
The need of an eduation will be more
marked in the future than it il even
now or has ever been before.

BEATEN AND ROBBED.
C. W. Norris Attacked by Thugs on
Streets of ST. Louis.

c. W. Norris who has been working
near Anthony, Kansas. for some time
arrived home Thursday. While in St
Loui 8 on his way home he was set up
on by thieves and severely beaten and
robbed.
He was walking along the street a
few blocks from the Union depot,
wheu four wen suddenly grabbed: him
and forced him into a vacant house
that was dark. They beat him about
the head and face and he was so se-
verely hurt tha doctor was neces-
sary to bind up his wounds. They
relieved him of the money he had In
his pockets, which was only a few dol
lars and took his witch also. He had
the greater part of his money secreted
about his person and by that means
dii mot suffer much of a monetary loss.
After escaping from the thugs he
soon found a policeman, who took him
to a doctor to have his wounds dressed
and then to the polloe station to get
statement from him of the occur
rance. While at the police station
three more men were brought in who
had been robbed of all the money
they had in much the same way, but
they hao not been hurt. The police
claim snch things are common and
that by no effort they can put forth
are they able to stop 1t. Such state
ments, of course, are false and only
go to show that the police are di-
rectly or indirectly in league with the
thugs.
Mr.. Norris IS a quiet, Industrious
and lnoffensive man and would IN no
way bring about trouble with any
person. He will remain here for the
present and work. He reports the
Germ crop near Anthony a complete
failure by drouth. aud corn selling for
e2 Is bushel there and the price is
expected to 60 much higher.

1t was the purpose of the FAIR Com
mlttee to take the best Jf our exhibit
to the State Fair at Nashville this
week, but 1T was learned that no
county could exhibit unless they had q
county organization, which 10 not the
case here. An exhibit will be made at
the Chattanooga Fair from September
80 to October 4.
We regret very much that we are
unable to publish all the names Of
those who received premiums and
what arti cles. but this is impossible
because we are handicapped in our
type setting force and cannot possibly
get it IN type.
EDUCATIONAL.
A new feature of the fair was the
Educational Exhibit, Parade of the
school children and patriotic play.
Although comparatively few of the
ontlying schools were represented the
exhibits were the most credItable; and
the evidences of community spirit
and interest," were splendid.
Pomona and Linary had particularly
good DISPLAYS and good attendance
in the parade and exercises.
Pleasant Hill Acadamy joined with
the other schools in fine cooperation
and had an excellent display of the
work this institution has set for its
standard. It's practical and compre-.
hensive course in Constructiom
Drafting is a valuable feature in its,
curriculum.
After the program of songs and
school yells in the court house square
the Crossville school children gave the.
musical play "Columbia's Call to the
Children" by Mrs. Z. B. Cope. This
proved most charming entertainment
and was enthusiasticay enjoyed by
those fortunate enough to be in atten-
dance.
The sports on Sa rday were free tor
all events and were we'll patronised
by all interested.
Mrs. Cope has been largely respon-
sible for this beginning along educa-
tional lines and the teachers will now
be able to work all the year with asxt
years fair in mind.
PREMIUMS TO BE PAID.
The Fair Committee will meet some
time this week and arrange to pay all
premiums awarded.

HAS ARRIVED IN AMERICA.
Clay Brown Has Arrived at Norfolk, Va,
With Other Wounded.

Trustee Thos. +. Brown received a
letter Saturday stating that his son

Mr.. Brown received.e letter from
his son yesterday that states he is at
Camp Stewart, Va. snear Norfolk,
that he was shot through the left
breast and that it will require six or
eight smonths tor him to fully recover.
He expects to be almost ,ss strong as
ever when fully recovered. He expects
to be able to come home on furlough

MUST PAY OR NO PAPER.
Cannot Send Chronicle Longer Than 8
Months Beyond Time Paid for

AS has been previously repeatedly
stated in the press of the country the
government is making strenuous effort
to reduce the consumption of print
papers as we'll as other papers. The
latest move along this line comes Ia
the way Of certain rstrictions to the
country papers. The War Industrial
Board has issued list of Is instruc-
tiens which very greatly affect the
country press. Following are the
regulations with their numbers, that
will especially interest the public;
Regulation 2: No publisher may
continue subscriptions after three
months after date of expiration, un-
less subscrltions are renewed and paid
for.
Regulation 8: No publisher shall
sell his publication at an exceedingly
low or nominal subscription price.
Regulation 8: No publisher shall
sell his publication to anyone below
the published subscription price.
Regulation Il: No publisher shall
conduct voting or other contests for
the purpose of obtaining subscriptions;
subscriptions obtained in this way will
not be considered bona fide sub
scriptions.
1t will be seen by the foregoing that
We must comply with these regula-
tions. We have large number OF
subscribers who are more than three
months in arrears. In most cases the
subscriber knows he is three months
or more in arrears. DO as a favor
and shcw a fair spirit by paying up
for if that is not done we MUST stop
the paper and we shall regret to be
forced 10 do that with anyone.
In case of persons having open ac-
counts with US. we will charge the pa
per to their account and continue send
ing 1t. In other cases we will stamp |
on the. paper notice that the subscri-
ber IS in arrears and if payment is not
made in few weeks the paper will
be stopped.

CALL FOR CLOTHING
For BeIgians and French Behind the Ger
man Battle Lines.

Mr.. Herbert Hoover, Chairman Of
the Commission for Relief in Beglium.
has asked the American Red Gro ss to
collect an additional 5000 tons of cloth
ing tor the Belgiums. The request
has been gladly received. as the
American Red Cross welcomes the
opportunity to render such a needed
service. The date set for this cam
paIgn is September $3.50. 1918.
Back of the German wall that has
hemmed in BeIgism and a part of
Northern France, ten million human
beings look to US for clothing as well
as food. We who are we'll cl>thed can
hardly appreciate in what dire need
these people are tor lack OF necessi.
ties. Stocks of clothing and raw
material are long since exhausted.
There are no imports other than those
the Commission for Relief in Belgium
has been permitted to make and these
never have been sufficient. The
world is now short of both clothing
aud raw material. so the Commission
can no longer purchase what is needed
But YOJ can GIVE it,"
The foregoing is quoted from spec
ial supplement to the latest Red Cross
Briefs. 1t Is earnestly hoped that all
members OF Cumberland Couny Chap
ter and Branches, as we'll as III other
patriotic men and women will tespond
to this call, as no further assurance is
required to convince US that this clotR
ing Is badly needed.
Garments need not be in perfect
conditioun, but should be of strong
durable material In addition, pieces
of goods-lizht. warm canton flannel
and Other kinds of cloth from which
to make garments for new burn babies
and woolen goods Of any kind what
soever.
All through the county, who have
anything to give, will please send to
The nearest Branch chapter. where
articles will be collected and sant be-
lore September 30. to the head Chapter

MOUNTING COST Of WAR.
We Are Now Shending 2,MiIlon DOL
lars an Hour, and May Be
More Shortly.

A comparison of the reports of our
Treasury Department with recently
ISSUED British financial statements
shows that America is already spend
ing 50 per cent more than Great
Britain on the war. The war outgo
for July was sl,50s, 900, 900. or more
than $1,000, 900 each hour.
Thus we have come to yearly
rate of $4,000, QUO, 900; burt each
month shows an increase over preced
ing months, and the year 1919 is ex-
pecteo to need $24, 900, 900. 900, not
counting the between five and six
billion dollars that will be apprapri-
ated for that year but covered by
future contracts.
Although we are gong SO much
faster than Great Britain, and at a
constantly accelerated rate, our total
war debt is as yet only about one
third as large as Great h Britain's, ow-
ing to Americas shorter period of war
effort-s12, 60O. 900, 900 against $50. 600.
O00. 900.
In the cnrrant year we have raised
boaut $4,000. .0O0. 600 in taxes as COM
pared with $3,270. 0 90. 900 levied by
Great Britain. With a population
here twice as great al our Ally's, we
should, to make the individual burden
sf taxation az great as the English |
mans. raise eight billion dollars-Just |
the sum we propose to raise next
year.
It must be remembered, however,
that England came to this present
burden BY gradual increments over
four years, while We have jun ped to
it In less than half the time.

Red Cross Notes.

The wonderful work done by
the Red Cross is so apparent
everywhere that we must not be
slackers In this important branch
of war work A little time and
a little money given for the
fund will keep things going
One dollar for Red Cross goes
further for relief than five dol
lars given thru lots of other
sources.
Sewing and knitting is going
right along in Rockcastle and
we are lar to the front in this
line considering population of
county.
The Civilian Relief work will
be an important branch of the
Red Cross inside of a year. We
are getting organized for that
work and will be able 10 help
dependents get part of soldiers
wages. Many people do not know
how to proceed to get these
claims before the War Depart
ment. Mr.. G. G. Williams will
look after the legal side OF
these cases for the Red Cross.
We are now getting a card in
dex of all soldiers from this
county and will have a list of
dependents and will take care of
a case of deserving charity in
any part of the county. Any
woman desiring to serve at this
time can do so by getting in
touch with some of the Red
Cross workers who are sewing
every week at Livingston, Brod.
