 It is suggested that every Victory Boy and every Victory Girl who signs a Pledge card write short letter to soldier boy from the local community.
 MT. Mariner has kindly offered one corner of the Board of Commerce for the Junior Board of Commerce, which he hopes to become a permanent or ganization. Key Boy, Freeman Irby, and Key Girl, Mabel Dean, will have charge of the Employment Bureau there from four to five-thirty p. m. every day or else appoint somebody to take their place. At this time housewives and others in the city can call through this Bureau for extra services these boys and girls can do to earn their pledges. Also this is the hour for boys and girls to regis ter for service.
 During Victory week the Victory Boys and the Victory Girls of the Sophomore, English Class of the Newport High School made Victory speeches. Public speaking-thinking on ones feet-is powerful educator and every boy and every girl should be trained so that he or she can at moments notice rise and express him. self or herself intelligently. Glad stone said, "Ninety-nine men in ev- cry hundred never rise above medi- ocrity becase this training is neg lected and considered of no impor- tance."
 Miss Elizabeth Irby displayed the posters of the seven organizations of the the United War Work Campaign and after explaining the work of each briefly to the pupils, they wrote a short essay on the poster that made the strongest appeal All were cred itable, and many showed a wide scope and knowledge of war work.
 The wide-awake school of Au- vergne with Miss Lottie Ballew as teacher has organized a VICTORY LITERARY SOCIETY. These are Victory Boys and Victory Girls in- deed and in truth.
 It is the business of the secular schools and the schurch schools to bring children into possession of their heritage in art and to develop in the American boy and girl an apprecia- i tion of the best in art Nothing Is so educational as picture. Eighty three per cent of what children learn l goes through the eye-gate. The " 1 c. T. U. had all this in view when 1t agreed to present the school in the county that makes the best record with a handsome framed picture of President Wilson.
 Three cheers for the one hundred l per cent schools in Jackson county! Diaz, Auvergne and Weldon, meaning that each pupil contributed the larg- est sum in proportion to it's numbers will receive the picture. The New port High school enjoys the distinc- tion of contributing the largest amount of money, not only in Jack son county, but also in the entire dis trict.
 The Victory Girls are placing two good magazines in some of the homes of our city This not only helps oul boys lover there" but also our homes lover here"
 Watch the Victory Boys and the Victory Girls earning the money to meet our obligations and give us a lift. SERVICE and SACRIFICE are the watchwords during the next few months.
 It help us to help the other fellow.
 We only grow as we give.

A quarter pound of limestone
phosphate costs very little at the
drug store, but is sufficient to dem

water cleanses, purifies and freshens
the skin on the outside. so hot water
and limestone phosphate act on the
inside organs. We must always con-
slider that internal sanitation is vast

cleanliness, because the skin pores
