LOYALTY IN WAR TIME

Loyalty in peace times and loyalty
in war times are two distinct things
Not much is required to pass the 10y
atty test when ones country is not
at war; a simple compliance with the
law is all that is required.
But loyalty in war times is not a
passive quality. At such time one
may be without loyalty and still not
be disloyal. A person of this type
will do nothing either to assist or to
harm his country. He will not give
himself to his country's service and
he will not contribute financial sup
port. Neither will he discourage
others from doing this. He will do
or say nothing reasonable, and Meth
erer will he do or say anything to put
heart in the fighting forces or to up
hold the Nation in it's struggle. He
will be simply a passive onlooker.
And that is not being loyal.
Our country is fighting in the most
desperate struggle of history. 1t is
struggle so vast and momentous as to
demand the most complete support OF
every one of its citizens. Passive
loyalty-the loyalty of peace times
is not sufficient. The brand Of loyal
ty now demanded is the kind that I'M
pels one to offer himself and his all.
if necessary, that his country may be
victorious in the great conflict.
Most of US cannot go into the fight
ing forces; most of Us cannot enter
into those industries directly connect
ed with the war, but all of US can
show our neighbors that we have the
right brand of patriotism.

FLOUR FOR FARMERS

Farmers who have grown their own
wheat, will be allowed to grind at one
time enough to do them and their
tenants until October 1st, at the rate
of II pounds per month per individu-
al-iust double the amount allowed
other people This rule applies only
to those who have grown theih own
wheat Land owners may furnish bo-
ma fida tenants flour from home
grown wheat at the rate of twelve
pounds per individual.
All sugar certificates should be
sent to me weekly-not the list OF
purchasers, as some seem to think.
Reports come to me that some mer-
chants are not requiring flour cards
when selling to corn producers. Such
merchants are mourning considerable
risk and laying themselves liable to
criticism.
Wheat producers may sell wheat to
the mills and the latter should pay
approximately $2.18 to 1924 for it
according to quality and locality. All
millers are expected to produce 1876
pounds of flour from 246 pounds OF
clean wheat. Millers may sell flour
from toll-wheat to cereal producers
taking proper card or certificate foI
same, or they may sell to other par.
ties on the "fifty-fifty" plan.
The use of IL pounds per individu.
al does not apply to bought flour.

MORE MEMBERS FOR THE
MEMS PATRIOTIC LEAGUE

If you would join the League, put
your name to the pledge above, and
enclose it with one dollar to the Sec
retary, Mr.. Campbell Wallace.
You must do this of your own free
will and accord, for you will not be
solicited for membership.
The following names have been
added to the membership of the
Mems Patriotic League of Marietta,
and many more are being added each
day. 1t should be understood that no
one will be solicited for membership,
but those who wish to join are both
invited and welcomed to the League.
The purpose of this was not to re-
strict the membership in numbers,
but to have only those join who are
willing and anxious to serve the coun-
try to the best of their ability, at any
and all times.
Read the pledge card above. Talk
to some of those who have joined con-
slider the matter seriously, and you
will know whether you "belong" or
not.
The meeting for organization was
hurriedly gotten uq on last Saturday
and many whom it was known would
be in thorough sympathy with the
meeting could not be seen in time.
To see and invite so many and to
explain to each one takes much time
and the prime movers in the matter
ask us to call attention to this, so that
none may be offended, who may not
have been seen before the meeting,
and we feel sure that this will be un-
derstood by all.
Certainly the thanks of all are due
the ones who worked so hard to get
the matter started, so let US keep it
growing.
