Pennell Symbolized
Air and Naval Forces

What is probably one of the most
powerful of the poster designs created
in this country since the beginning of
the war is the Autograph etching of
Joseph Pennell, the renowned Philadel-
phia marine artist. The design shows
an enormous battleship in dock, with
aeroplanes circling overhead. 1t con-
stitutes a pictorial recognition of the
nations aerial and naval forces The
scene about the dock is one of imposing
war activity. Pencils own caption for
the poster, "The Sinews Of War;" is
particularly fitting.
In order that there might be no in
eQualities in the reproduction Of the
drawing, Pennell himself personally
supervised the work.
Howard Chandler Christy, competent
critics say, has outdone his previous
efforts in his contribution of the stir
ring poster, Fight or Buy Bonds" He
depicts a modernized spirit of victory,
bearing aloft an American flag and
challenging the patriotism Of the coun-
try for the advancing column of Ameri
can soldiers in the background. The
poster is Autographed in eight colors
and made in two sizes Eight million

to his uniformed son as he leaves for

Herbert Paus, one of our noted
American artists has drawn powerful
poster design showing American SOL
diers going over the top. The dark
figure of the soldiers are depicted
against lurid sky, giving the composi-
ton striking contrast and action. More
than half million of these posters
will be distributed where they will dc
the most good.

forward successfully unless the
people of the United States econo-
mize in every possible direction, save
their money and lend it to the gov
eminent. By saving money they
give up some Of their needless pleas
ures; they reduce their demand upon
the general supply of food, clothing
and other materials in the country,
thus releasing thereby that much for
! the use of our own armies and the
armies and civilian populations of
the nations which are fighting the
common danger with us.
They are at the same time in
creasing their own material pros
perity by their savings, and they are
directly helping their government by
lending it the money with which it
can buy the necessary supplies and
command the necessary services to
make our fighting forces stronger
and more effective in the field, and
this means an earlier victory for
American arms.
The great difficulty is to impress
this lesson of economy upon the
American people. 1t will require
widespread propaganda and constant
effort. With this in view, it was my
privilege to suggest to the Congress
the raising of 100000, by the
sale of war savings stamps anc
thrift stamps, so that the American
people would have the opportunity
as we'll as the direct encouragement
to economic and save money by put
ting within their reach the opportu-
nifty of lending their savings, in such
small amounts even as 25 cents, tt
their own government.
A Privilege for Those

war savings campaign upon a wide
scale and shall bring to the atten

in the country the privilege now of

Believe Yield Will
Average IS Bushels

Clarence and Robert Jenkins of
Harrison township are now threshing
40 acres of the best wheat in Wayne
county, and it is estimated that the
yield will average 35 bushels to the
acre. S. w. Taylor, of the United
States department of agriculture and
J. C. Kline, Wayne county agricul-
ture agent, in their recent tour of the
county to select seed wheat, chose
the Jenkins field of 40 acres in Har-
rison township as one of the best
fields in this part of the state.
Farmers who are in need of seed
wheat should make arrangements at
once to purchase what they may need
from this field, as Jenkins has no
place in which to store the grain and
will have to haul it direct to market
Farmers who will bring sacks and in
dictate the number of bushels they
need will be supplied.
J. c. Kline said that he believed the
average yield from this 40-acre field
would prove one of the record break
ing yields in Indiana this year.

DAYTON TEAM TO
PLAY HERE SUNDAY

Next Sunday the 44th Areo Squad
ron baseball team will arrive In Rich
mond and attempt to take Richmond
scalps.
The Dayton personnel includes
Dewy from Georgia "Tech." Brayton
formerly with Michigan ~, Dreyfus
and Vincent of the Three / League,
Gaudreau of the Yayton 8. A. L., Pugs-
ley and Munson fro mthe Atlantic
Coast League. and two pitchers, Magee
and Kuken who are not "bushers."
Brehm expects the Giants to give
the soldiers a good fight and he knows
that the game will not be a runaway
for either side.
Heretofore the admission has been
twenty-five cents, but starting next
Sunday, thirty cents will be charged
including the war tax. This raise was
necessary because of the increase in
railroad fare and war tax that must
be paid the government.
The Farmland baseball club who
had the distiction of being the only
team to beat the Giants this year will
play here August A. The Giants were
defeated by that club at Farmland
some time ago.

6JJACK HEENE

The war will inject new psyche
logical aspect into sports of the future.
Thousands of athletes, great and
small, who laid aside their athletic
equipment to enter the war, probably
will return to their given sport after
the kaiser gets his. They probably
will find themselves somewhat rusty
at their game.
But when they stack up against an
opponent who hasn't been through the
hell Of battle they will have one big
advantage. The civilian will know
that he is facing man who knows
no fear-a man who has looked Hun
shells, poison gas. liquid fire, air
bombs and other bits of German
finery in the eye has laughed at it all
and has won out.
The civilian opponent will not have
had their fiery test. And it will take a
pretty courageous player to forget this
when he starts any kind of a game
with an eX-soldier or sailor lad.
This is bound to have a psycholog-
ical effect on his opponent. And what
is more it is ten to one shot that the
warrior will play much more dash
ing, intrepid game than he did in
peace times This will help further to
take his rival off his feet, mentally
and physically
1t will he an interesting thing to
watch when the big game is over.
A Chattanooga player, Flagstead,
has the honor of leading the Southern
league when it closed its gate because
Of war conditions. He was batting
.379.
Whenever a ball team slips below
its expected pace the fan begins to
dig beneath the surface for the reason.
Mere pitching. batting and fielding
records prove little to his satisfaction.
All of which is written to bring us
to this point:
White Sox fans are doping 1t out
that the absence of old Kid Gleason
more than the absence of Jackson.
Williams and Lynn, is responsible for
Comiskey's yard.
1t is said that the Kid babe the
team a sad farewell when he failed to
get in on slice of the world series
money last year.
When the team made it's first trip
east the Kid was in Philadelphia, but
didn't come near the team.
Fans are remarking that, had Glea-
son been with the club no one could
have induced the three members Of
the club to jump to the shipbuilding
game.
Take it for what it's worth. 1t
sounds probable, at least.

Newspaper Economies

Letters have been sent to news
paper publishers in this country by
the war industries board, calling
attention to the necessity for econ
omy in. the use of print paper. A
list op practices, effective yester-
day has been announced. All
newspapers are to discontinue the
acceptance of unsold copies, hith-
erto returned by newsdealers. The
use of free sample copies for pro-
motion is denied Publishers are
required to stop giving free copies
to anybody except for office work
ing copies or where required by
law to furnish copies containing
legal advertising. Not more than
one free copy, to be used for
checking, is to be allowed an ad-
vertiser. Newspapers are prohibit
ed from forcing copies on news
dealers. Unsold papers can not be
be bought back from the dealer,
either at wholesale Or retail rates
The payment Of salaries or COM
missions to agents, dealers or
newsboys as the equivalent of re-
turn privileges is not to be allow
ed. Al free exchanges are to be
discontinued.
These suggestions were largely
made by the publishers them
selves. at a conference with repre-
sentatives of the war industries
board, in Washington, few
months ago. While the newspaper
is called upon to give away more
of what it has for sale than any
other industry, still 1t has been I'M
able to increase its revenue pro-
portionately with increased costs
of publication
So the greatest economy must be
practiced. Freights are higher,
news print paper has advanced,
new postage rates are expensive
and burdensome, labor must be
paid more-in fact, everything con-
nected with newspaper has COM
blned to. make greater expense
and smaller net income. The fea-
ture of cutting off all exchanges
and this rule applies to all papers
and periodicals. However, they
can subscribe for their exchanges.
This, in the end, means merely an
exchange Of checks.
