GUARDS AIRED THEIR
NEW GUNS

Company A. County Guards, re-
ceived its new guns last night, and
with those it formerly possessed, has
nearly fifty rifles. They are all SER
viceable rifles, too, and when the
company has its ammunition it will
be able to cope with any emergency
that can arise in this country.
After the new arms were distribut-
ed, Capt. Roberts marched the COM
pany up on the square for an hour
and half's drill, which the men went
thru with in fine order. They won
many compliments from those who
saw them.

Woman's S Committee for

Chairman Woman's Liberty Loan
Committee, Twelfth Federal
Reserve District)

Now that we are actively in the war
and our men are in the front line
trenches; are being killed; are being
gassed; are being mained for life, it
would seem that every woman in the
land should be in the front ranks of
the civilian workers to help the men
win the war.
Each of us has her part to play.
however small it may be, and whether
1t be great or small It is Of Importance
that each shall perform her part to
the utmost Of her ability.
Some can buy Liberty Bonds. some
can influence others to buy. Perhaps
some can only help by conserving the
use of food and clothing and by econ.
Omizing in household expenditures.
thus liberating and augmenting the
essentials which must be sent ''over
there" for the use of our army and
for the destitute civilian population OF
our allies.
In whatever way each woman Of
this Twelfth Federal Reserve District
can help. Let her do her utmost that
wo who arS farthest from the front
may sustain our part Of the struggle.
and keep for ourselves and our chtl.
drou the blessings and privileges We
have inherited, and thus make 1t pos
'sfbls to win lfke blessings for the mil
Hons who are now in actual bondage
We should not only save to help,
but the great lesson to be learned also
Is to do now without n0n-essentials and
to make sacrifices so that the labor
which produces what we consider to
be even essentials may be used to
produce those things which are actu
ally essential for the support and
safety of those who are carrying the
burden Of this unprecedented struggle
Tor freedom and democracy
The aim of the Woman's Liberty
Loan Committee is to form an organi
zation which shall make the woman
In every home in the land realize
these conditions and her RESPONSE
bility, that the message shall not
reach her only from one direction, but
from many, so that she shall be
brought to a full realization of her
responsibility.

Last year at this time the great cry
was conservation. This year it is
thrift. Last year the nation was
urged by the Government to conserve

Greater crops were urged. and canning

of the day. This year the nation is
being taught the lesson of spending

shown the Importance of putting every

Conservation and thrift go hand in

being told this year to be thrifty does
not mean he lis not to plant every
acre available and till his crops care
fully and harvest them when they are
ready for the reaper. It means that
he must invest wisely the money he
gets for. the splendid crops he has
demonstrated he is able to raise.
The farmer, as a rule, can find some
thing for which to spend almost every
dollar he gets. There always is ma
