 INDIAN BRAVES
Half Hundred Braved Rain storm to Receive Liberty Loan Drive and Py.ade
 Orders

The Kiwanis club expects to make 100 per cent showing in the parade to- day, following the smoker at the South ern club last night, when Vice President Joseph H. Loveman addressed the club upon their duty in the fourth Liberty Loan campaign that begins next Tues, day, and Gen, w. A. Currie gave the membership the details regarding the parade, while Gen. w. A. Steadman is- sued orders for the drive.
 This is serious business" said Mir Loveman, in stressing the importance of every man working every moment he could possibly be away from his busi- ness in the coming drive" Bulgaria. S of- fer for peace may be just plain German propaganda, and coming out just one day before the preliminaries of the great fourth Liberty Loan drive starts, it looks very much like it. However, it may not be- But at any rate, we have a real flrst-class job on our hands to raise Bir- mingham's quota. but we must put it over as we nave always done every task assigned to us by the government This IS the largest loan ever floated by any nation in the history of the world ana those Of us who are so unfortunate as to be unable to go and fight should at least | time and the opportunity"
 Gen. w. A. Steadman instructed his army, the Kiwanis club being the Brit ish army. and after issuing orders afor the drive and the parade today he said: : We took this lean territory because we lett that no army would stand the gafr and stay with the prospects and come as clean as the British army. Now the idea IS to go to work at o'clock every morn ing-that is, get to headquarters at that time and be ready to go out at S:30 o'clock, and stay with them until you sell every bond that it is possible to sell in your territory"
 General Currie issued parade orders and commanded every Kiwanis to be in line today for the parade, in order to make the biggest possible showing for the British army. An informal discuss sion followed General Currie's remarks. There were about 50 Kiwas who braved the weather to participate in the meet ing. President J. Mercer Barnett was absent in Nashville on Kiwanis business, but will return this morning.

Should our armies shirk their responsibility the war would be lost and everything that we hold dear would be lost with IT, If the people of this country shirk their duty and the fourth Liberty Loan is not subscribed, our armies may, from lack of support from those at home lose the victory and we at home lose our independence.
 The sixth federal reserve district is better organized than any of the previous campaigns. more interest is being shown and I have the almost unanimous assurance of the 427 county chairmen that they will go ever the top. DO your part and the loan will be a success

FULL TICKET NECESSARY

It was further argued by those ad- vocating the nomination that q com plete state ticket with a war hero at its head would bring to the support of their nominee in the Seventh and Ninth congressional districts many democrats who otherwise would either vote for the democratic nominees or stay away from the polls. Committed men from the Seventh district where Judge o. D. Streit of Guntersville is opposing John l.. Burnett of Gadsden, the incumbent, stated that Major Smith at the head of the ticket would im- prove Judge Streit's chances and sinli- lar reports were made by members of the committee from Jefferson coun- ty, where Joseph o. Thompson hopes to defeat George Huddleston. present representative and nominee of the democratic party for reelection.
