ALL SUNDAY SCHOOL
WORKERS WILL HELP
BUY LIBERTY BOND

E. p Jones president of the County
Sunday School association, issued the
following appeal to the Sunday schools
today:
One thousand dollars for the boys
over there.
Forty dollars each year for the boys
over here.
This is what Liberty bond bought
by the Wayne County Sunday School
association means.
Every Sunday school in Wayne
county will have young men from IL
to 81 entering the service this fall.
This will mean many new stars on
our service flags. The sacrifice of
these young men means that more
must be made by those at home.
Wayne County Sunday School as
ISOLATION wants to help these boys by
buying a $1,000 Liberty Bond. This
will help the boys overe there. The
interest on this bond will be used in
carrying on the Sunday school work
in this state, and that will be helping
the boys over here
How much does it take for each
school? Only Toe per enrolled mem
Der. Count your enrolment and null
tiply it by ten and you have it.
About one-half of this bond has al
ready been subscribed. Have you had
part of it? If schools have not got
this money in their treasurery, COM
mittees should be appointed to solicit
it, or a special offering should be TAX
en- this coming Sunday for the pur-
pose Next Sunday being Liberty
Bond Sunday, and also the day set
aside by the governor for memorial
day for the boys who have paid the
price of bond more sacred than one
purchased by money. 1t seems most
fitting that this offering should be
, made them.
This offering is not confined to
those who attend Sunday school. Any
one who wants to help the boys over
there, and thinks the Sunday schools
are for the best interests of the boys
at home, can make an offering to any
Sunday school they see fit to help, or
you can make your offering direct to
w. l.. Parkins Milton, who is the coun-
ty treasurer No Sunday school in
Wayne county should withhold itself
from this opportunity to show the boys
over there that we are back of them
to the limit. In fact if we have no
interest in these boys when they go
from our midst for our sakes we have

lssians Were Toys in Hands
| of Crafty German Leaders
Loyal Soldiers Betrayed.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1S.-German
|ckery in breaking the Ukraine away
pm the bought.and-paid-for Bolshe-
ki government, plots against loyal
issian soldiers and their leaders to
sure complete German sway after
e false peace conference at Brest-
tovsk.
Further evidences of the precau-
bns of the Teutons against Bolshevik
teaching in their own ranks are
(own in today's installment Of secret
pcTments from Russia made public
the United States government.
Communications written in January
sc!ose that the Bolsheviki were fully
formed of what the Germans were
ling in the Ukraine, and knew that
ace treaties with the Ukraine and
oumania were coming They also
armed quickly enough that Germany
as disposing of the hopes to see
cir revolutionary propaganda took
pot on German soil.
Turks Sent to Russia.
Notes from the German intelligence
'rvice to Trotsky the commissar CT
g foreign affairs, show first that a
urk with Russian passport was
INT to Petrograd to keep watch over
pc Russian commander-in-chief, and
bat month afterward, late In Feb.

|hiefs General Bonch Bruevick, was
emanded. Bruevick, whose continu-
bee in the position was particularly
10 longer desirable" to the Germans,
las turned out and General Parski,
|amed by the German intelligence
|ervice, was appointed to command
he Petrograde district.
Another note from the Intelligence
|ervice complains that "the agents
tnt to kill Generals Kaledine, Bog
|evsky and Alexieff were cowardly,
people" This same
document shows that as long ago as
december, 1917, former German pris-
|ncrs Of war were being dressed in
russian uniforms to fight loyal Rus
ban soldiers.
The Significance of the documents is
discussed in notes by Edgar Sisson,
|ho brought the documents out of
Russia for the committee on public in
brmation.

 The past week has been an ideal one for farm work in this section. The weather has continued fair and warm. Farmers have been extreme ly busy blowing and some have been planting corn, Probably never in the history of this section have they been further advanced at the time Of year than they are now. Unless con- ditions become very unfavorable la- ter crops will be planted earlier and in better condition than they usually are. However, just now good seasonable rain would be very bcne- ficial and very acceptable.

HOSTESS HOUSE AT
CAMP GORDON

WASIIINGTON-The hostess house
for the colored troops at Camp Gordon
which has been in process of erection
for several weeks, is now ready for
occupancy. The Atlanta Constitution
says: "The house is building COM
plete in its expression of beauty and
comfort, the same attention being CIV
en- to the details of harmonious and
artistic equipment that characterizes
all the hostess houses that have been
and are still being erected at nearly
every cantonment in the country, and
is designed along the same lines Of
the hostess houses for white soldiers" :"
The structure was provided through
efforts Of the National War Work
Council of the Y. w. c. A., the head
quarters of which is in New York City.
This fills long-felt want, as there
was great need for the colored sol.
diers at Camp Gordon to have suit
able place where they might meet
their relatives and friends who had
come from a distance to visit them.
