PETITION FOR PARDON.

To Gov. Theo. G. Bilbo and the
Pardoning Board of the state of Miss
issippi, Gentlemen
The undersigned would respect
fully represent to you that Henry Ha,
ger, Jr., was convicted on plea OF
guilt acknowledged by the defendant
at the July 1917 term of the circuit
court of Grenada county, Mississippi,
on the charge of forgery. His con
duet prior to that had been good and
he had never before been before the
courts. There was no testimony
taken in the case, and hence no re-
to be referred to. For the above
and other reasons which we deem
sufficient, we believe that the ends OF
Justice have been met and that you
would be doing a good deed in grant
ing him a full pardon for which we
shall ever pray.
Henry Hager, Jr., W. H. Crowder
ct al.

Americans Learn
ing Lesson,

AS long as Bismark, Germany's
Iron Chancellor" lived, he would
fall into a black rage every time he
thought of a French stocking or a
loose brick in a French hearth.
For it was the savings of French
men and Frenchwomen, tucked away
under hearthstones, buried in garden
spots and hidden away in stockings
that kept the Prussians from linger-
ing in Paris for years after they had
taken the French apital in the War
of 1S7O-71. The thriftiness of the
French people enabled France, to pay
off the huge indemnity, and the Prus-
slams who had hoped to hold Paris
through years of a French financial
struggle went back across the Rhine.
And when the Huns came back
again forty years later it was the
thriftiness of the French people that
has enabled France to hold on
through four years Of a No
wonder the thriftiness of the French
peasant has become a proverb.
And we r learning the same
lesson here in America that the Euro
pean learned generations ago. We
are getting the Thrift Idea" here in
the United States. Every day Ameri-
cans are more willing to make sacri
fees, ave money, deny themselves
Injuries and hold themselves in readi-
ness to do their part in raising the
Liberty Loans that will keep America,
free for themselves and their chill
dren's children.
The war is teaching us what thrift
means, what it will do for us and
what it means toward winning the
war and bringing back to their homes
the lads who have gone, or are going,
"Over There"
The American is beginning to feel
like a Stacker" almost like a trail
tor, when he finds himself spending
money foolishly. The Thrift Idea"
has got him,

The Dollars Am
Proud Of.

If any man on earth today is en-
titled to hold up his head, it is the
farmer who, with his own hands and
on his w land, has brought a good
crop through to the harvest. There is
a solid satisfaction in that, greater
than any mar may guess who has not
done it himself. The satisfaction is
not in the reward that is to come;
it is in the actual performance. To
look out across an October cornfield
in the shock and say to himself,
Eighty good bushels to the acre!"-
there is the satisfaction that mean,
and not the stolid feeling that m
when the surplus grain is sold and the
money put in bank. / have made
good money out of IDEALS" at old
times trading in cattle and horses
land l have bought and sold, or some
thing of that sort; but the pleasures |
have got from those profits has not
amounted to much. l have
put anything into my trading beyond
a little shrewdness, a little cold cal
culating ~cleverness. Those trades of
mine have not added one penny to
the worlds wealth. They have mere
ly shifted dollars from some other
mans pocket to mine. The world is
not any better off, in any way, on &C
count of them
The dollars l am proud of are those
l have made growing my crops. -.
When I have planted a bushel and a
half of wheat on a ~well-prepared
acre and have made it give me thirty
five or forty bushels of increase, I
have done something. l am not
ashamed of owning the dollars that
are earned in that way. l am proud
of them. The long and short of it
is that l would rather own one dollar
made by c~rop-growing on my farm
than ten dollars made out Of a shrewd
trade. Does that sound to you like a
piece Of crazy sentiment? All right;
but that is just the way I feel about
it.
Why? Because in growing my
wheat / have contributed something
to the worlds welfare. =. l have
htried both ways, and / think / am en-
titled to speak my mind in the mat
ter. The man who is to feel himself
Ia man must earn his way in the
world by defniate service. I am not
saying that farming is the only way
open to him; but it is a mighty good
WAY. There n not many better

WASHINGTON. Nov. 23-The
capital today still was Keeling over
the shock of the announcement of
the retirement from public life of
William Gibbs NcAdoo. Accepting
absolutely al its face value the state
ment OF Mr.. McAdoo that ne was
compelled 10 quit as secretary of the
treasury and railroad director i'm or
der "to recoup his fortune" official
dom generally was criticizing "A sys-
tenn that put a premium on rich
men" 10 was agreed that the prob
lem OF fHing the vacant place win
bee "a hard one. although IL was UNI
derstood that PRIEST Wilson has the
men i'm view 90 head the treasury
and viii announce his choice next
week Who that viii be was not re-
vealed by white house officials.
Two Successors Likely.
Mr.. McAdoo has asked that he De
relieved OF his duties as railroad di
rector by Jan. I. His successor as
secretary of the treasury does not
necessarily have 20 take over the
railroad work Officials here today
were confident that PRIEST Wilson

work that his son-in-law has been
directing i'm "A dual capacity.
The reconstruction problems, SO
FAR as they affect the treasury de-
payment. will prove more than
enough 10 occupy the attention OF
any one individual officials say.
And swinging the railroads back to
a peace basis also is a very large
task.
Although Sec'y McAdoo had ten
dered his resignation 10 the presi-
dent on Nov. Il, no work Of his
contemplated action had been al
lowed 20 leak until ne announced it
in person iast night. Even his col
leagues In the cabinet were ignorant
OF his intentions Today the expires
sions Of regret came from all quar-
ters and were very sincere. IL was
frankly admitted. even by the mel
who were not OF his own political
faith. that the forced retirement Of
the treasury head because ne could
not meet his financial obligations on
the salary OF his post, was a very
real loss TO the nation at this time.
Officials said today that the resig-
nation of the secretary not only hal
the complete endorsement of Mrs.

but that she had urged him "a
retire as soon as possible.
