Dear Readers and Friends: Mon
day April 20, l entered upon my
duties as Local Editor of The Herald.
AS a great deal of last weeks issue
was already made up, this issue is
the first one which / take an active
part in producing. / am young, being
but little past my majority, and / feel
the responsibility that devolves upon
me in assuming this position. That
my work may be success, earnest
ly request the sincere cooperation of
all contributors and readers of The
Herald, and promise, to the best of
my ability, to give you a newsy local
paper-literally a long home letter.
With this in view, l believe we will
get on fine and know each other bet
ter with each succeeding issue.
Yours sincerely,
WALTER CREEP.

The soldiers in France are work
ing and fighting every day in the
week and Sunday. They do not
fight by the clock. They do not fight
five days in the week and take two
days holiday.
The soldiers in the camps in this
country work six days week, and
they are doing some work on Sunday.
From morning until night they are
at it. The entire day is cut up into
intervals, and every hour one is not
sleeping one is on some sort of duty.
We have before us a pay roll of a
factory IN Memphis. The wages
are 80 per cent higher than they
we're two years ago, but the employees
are not turning out as much work
as they did two years ago. Then
they worked six days week, and
some weeks they worked as many as
81 hours. Now they are not work.
ing so hours. Some of them work
in the factory four days Of 10 hours
each and take two week days off.
They earn as much working four
days of 10 hours each, at the present
wages, as they did in 1914 working
six days a week.
They could add &c Pc: cent to their
output by working six days week.
They are living up what they now
earn. If they worked six days
week they could buy Liberty bonds
with the two extra days earnings, or
they could buy thrift stamps.
Every day you loaf you are helping
to make a grave for an American
soldier. Every day you loaf you
please the kaiser. You make it
easier for him to kill more Ameri-
cans.
Now, what is true of the factory
Is also true of the farm. And we are
not going to stop at the factory and
the farm. 1t is true of the bank, it
is true of the law office and it is true
Of the house.
If man has two servants in the
house, and one is an able-bodied man,
he ought to do part of that SER
wants work himself and get along
with one servant. The able-bodied
man can then go into the army or in
TO the factory.

Work, Work, and Help. Win the War.

And the women can help in this
just as the men can. Many things
that men are now doing women can
do and release the men for more
difficult work or for-the army.
The lawyer ought to get along
without so many Office boys. The
doctor might drive his own car, or he
might have one less attendant in his
office. t.
The Commercial Appeal has been
advocating registering every man
from Is to 65 years of age. We
ought to register the women also.
In Germany all the men, who are
not cripples, are in the army. The
cripples and the men above 60 years
old are back of the lines at hard work
The women and children are making
up the rest.
In 1863 and 1854 the white able
bodied men of the south were all in
the army and the women and child
rem and the negros worked the farms
and made the crops.
America will not lose this war.
We will win this war, but we will win
it by work and by getting into it.
If France can support an army of
100000 men in the field, with
population of 100000, the United
States, with its population of more
than 1O0,000,O00, ought to support
an army of 100000 men.
And we will need 100000 in
Europe.
Have you ever thought how long
it will take to send 100000?
We will have to send over 100000
a month. That means about $4,000
a day, and that means about 10 ships
every day, or 800 ships a month sail
ing.
So if we can put 500 ships into
quickly we can send men to
Europe just as fast as they can be
trained.
But in order to get these ships and
all the things the men want and need
and all of the guns, the American
citizens have got to increase their
labor output about 20 per cent.
Every extra hour you work helps
to win the war.-Commercial Appeal.

FACTS ABOUT THE DEATH
OF RODNEY ROSS.

The following letter, written by a
Mr.. Ellis, one of Ross companions,
to his father, will explain the facts
concerning the death of Rodney Ross,
of Centertown, who was killed while
on his way to the Naval Training
Station at Great Lakes. Ill. The
incident is related as follows:
"Ross had few short words with
a stranger in building in Hender-
son, Ky. The fellow went out of the
door. In a few minutes after the
cross words, Ross, Myers and myself
went to the station. Just as we got
to the door, the stranger threw a
rock, striking Ross on the head,
knocking him unconscious for few
minutes. 1t did not make much
scar. Ross said he was not hurt
much except his feelings were hurt.
So we came on to Evansville. When
we arrived in Evansville, we trans
ferred to the c. & E. I. depot in a
car. Then we purchased our Pull
man tickets for Chicago. Myers and
Ross retired before myself. Next
at o'clock, went to Ross
berth. He was hard to rouse. I
reported his condition and we called
a physician. The doctor pro-
nounced him dead. He said his
death was caused by bloOd-clots on
the brain, due to the lick"
