DR.. Cullom of Wake Forest college
tells the following joke: There WAS q
preacher who also was lawyer and
preached at certain church, and al
ways carried an old ex-slave with hin.
Tom, would always occupy seat at
the rear end of the church, and every
time the preacher would state fact

out, "amen, sab, amen, boss" The
pre- eacher, becoming tired Of the dis
turbance, told Tom that he would
give him pair Of boots to hush.
"Boots mine, mine, suh," said the
negro
When the preacher went to de-
liver his next sermon and went about
it in his usual forceful way he
could see old Tom swell up and al
most say "Amen, sah'', and before
the preacher ended that sermon old
Tom just raised up and yelled "amen,
sab, amen, boss, boots or no boots, l
say amen, sah."
So we say "amen, boots or no boots"
to editor Sharpe's intelligent editori-
al in recent issue of this paper un-
der the caption of "Some Killing Need

more timely and striking argument
in reference to those damnable Hun
spies that infect our country.
Quite a number of our people
heard the stirring addresses Of your
townsmen, Messrs. Mclean and Proc
tor at Fairmont Saturday P. NJ, of
the third Liberty loan. We are
glad to say that some of our farmers
are going to come across and buy
bonds.
Prof. Huxley wrote to Lord Far
rier in 1881: Of few innocent pleas
ures left to man past middle life
the jamming of common sense down
the throats of fools is perhaps the
keenest." But was that ever sue
cessful process or could the jam

If the fool be a Hohengollern-yes
but If silly fellow who refuses tt
buy Liberty loan bonds and yet has
idle dollars; he needs the pity Of his
fellow man. Common sense may no
be impartable at all, but if it is the
idle-dollar holder needs a good dose
Of Huxley,s strenuous jam.
During the critical days when wa.

receiving fancy prices for their pro

Lumberton, R. z, April 16.- -Taber-
nacle school will close Wednesday,
April 24th, and in lieu of commence
ment, a Red Cross rally will be held
Wednesday night. Everybody is in
vited and there will be no admission
fee. There will be patriotic speeches
and songs and possibly a short play.
One of the 7th grade boys, Scot
Currie, has composed the following
verse for the occasion, to be sung to
the tune Of Dixie:
The war has come and the blood is
flowing,
But honor calls and we are going,
Far away from home, and land far a.
way across the sea.
Though we love our homes, you can
bet we do!
We love our wives and our sweet
hearts, too
But we leave homes so dear to help
the boys across the sea.
CHORUS.
| And so we've joined the army, Hoo.

For home and land we take our stand
To live and die for freedom.
Hooray! Hooray! To live and die fo1

Hooray! Hooray! To live and die fo1

large attendance.

AT the current prices on the day,

made, the packers would pay the live
stock producers about $s0.0OO,0OO for

cattle will cost us twice as much, and
the hogs two and one-half times as

u. S. SOLDIERS
LOVE TO BE CLEAN

You wouldn't believe it to see them
sometimes, but keeping clean is one
of the main aims in life among Per-
shing's men in France. No one ever
misses chance to battle; and there is
many a soldier who insists that when
he comes home he will be able to get
a job anywhere as a laundress.
In every marching kit you will find
a piece of soap. And in every brook,
creek or river in the vicinity of a
body of troops you will see men "lav-
ing" themselves or beating the dirt
out of a shirt, a pair of socks or some
more unmentionable article of wear
ing apparel. In the courtyard of the
Chateau which the Y. M. C. A. is
using as headquarters at Chateau
Thierry hundreds of soldiers have
scrubbed down under the fountain
and wished there were similar ready
made baths all over the fighting front.
Thousands of bars of soap go over

which settled in my lungs, but the doc
tors assure me that it is not serious.
AS for being confined, the entire
hospital is quarantined. In fact, ev-
cry hospital in the city is under quar-
antine, due to Spanish influenza.
Starting with yesterday, the Board of
Health closed all schools, churches,
theatres, movies, saloons, and all plac-
es where people gather in any crowds.
All the hospitals are full, and the peo-
Pile are dying in great numbers. We
were sent from the Naval Hospital
here to be out of the way of it. There
are now about fifty cases in this hos
pital. / sincerely hope that it does
not go much farther.
AS my mother subscribed to the

pires. If you will let me know before
the time, would like to extend my
subscription.

NOW WE'RE IN 1T, LET'S
WIN IT'-PERSHING

When America took up Germany's
challenge and entered the war to save
the Freedom of the World, we coined
the slogan, Business as Usual" This
has now almost given way to the slo-
gan, "War as Usual."
The war had not been long in pro-
gress before business men in Europe
and America gave great deal Of at
tention to the question, "How will the
war affect business?"
What can we business men do to
win the war and win it quickly?
Bringing the question right down
to this day, this hour, the question is,
"What can we do now to shorten the
war and bring victory nearer?"
Our duty as well as our clear bus
mess policy is to buy alt the Liberty
Bonds we can ourselves and to make
our friends and neighhors see their
duty and advantage to do the same.
You, who are employers, should
urge your employees to save money
now and put into Liberty Bonds. Yes,
go further than that, help them, and
make it easy for them to do it.
And you employees--now that pric-
es are high and your dollars will not
buy much for you, invest them in Lib
erty Bonds. Uncle Sam will. use them
to drive Prussianism off this Earth of
ours, and he will give them back to
you with good interest at time when
their purchasing power will be much
greater
The Huns started this thing. We are
going to finish it and to give them
such licking that they will be neither
able nor willing to try it again.
We are going to do it and we shall
have to pay for it, The sooner we dc
it, the less we shall have to pay for
it in dollars and in lives.
There are just two things for us to
do today-buy all the Fourth Liberty
Bonds that we can and get our friends
to buy as many as they can.
But there is one more thought that
we must all drive home in our minds
and in the minds of others. That is
this:
We have only just begun to get the
better of Germany. Each mile thai
we drive her armies back, they will
have a shorter line to defend, and will
as result be able to put up strong
err defense. And the more time we give
them to prepare that defense, thu
. longer it will take US to beat then
down.
, There is only one means to beat j
down and put Prussianism off thi
. earth forever. That is, as Presiden
Wilson said, "Force, force to the ut
: most, force without limit or stint"
That force can only be built up anC
1 used with money, "money without linn
E it or stint" Money enough to offse
= Germany's fifty years of preparation
Can't you buy another bond today t.
help our soldier boys to end the war
