The July American Magazine.

The story of tFoghorn", Macdonald
who, at fifty-three,. enlisted in . the
Canadian forces by swearing that he
was thirty nine, is told in the July
American Magazine. In addition,
there are such articles as an interview
with A. Barton Hepburn, the famous
banker, who asks whether you are
the right age for your job; positive
ly the Last Appearance OF John Bar
leycorn" which tells how little whisky
is left in the country; "My Experience
With Women in Mems Jobs" the story
of an employer who has had to hire
women because of the war; "The Big
gest Taxicab Man in America" which
tells about John Hertz Of Chicago;
Human Nature, as Seen by Pull
man Porter" and "The Advantages
Of Being Homely," by Irwin S. Cobb,
Americas greatest humorist.
The fiction includes fine stories by
William Dudley Pelley, Jack Lait,
Royal Brown and Lowell Otus Reese,
and Holworthy Hall continues his
great serial, "The Man Nobody
Knew" Sid Says, Don't Use Your
Head-Use Nine Says the Kaiser" "
The Interesting People, Family Mon
ey, and gravure pictures are all as
interesting as always.

CURB THE SPENDTHRIFTS.

Every wage Garner in Germany
eighteen years old or younger must
deposit half his weekly earnings in
a savings bank. This law was made
to pile up a vast fund to be drawn
upon in the successive war loans need
ed by that nation. The law also was
made to take care of the war pros
perity that had come to the German
people in higher wages, particularly
to women and old men too old to
fight. People of this nation are en-
joying war prosperity and should be
too proud to spend it foolishly while
the Government needs the money to
carry on the war. America cannot
afford to do less than Germany is do
ing. Spendthrifts should be curbed,
extravagancies checked. Lloyd-
George, the British Premier, said re-
Gently: "I fear the disciplined Ger
man people behind the German army
the rationed family and the deter
rliy.ation of wife and sister, and
daughter and mother to stand and
starve SO that their fighting men NAV
be fed--I fear it more than the In.
per:al army ITSELF"
The Robesonian., 1918-06-20
Enlists at SO; Says He's 80.

The July American Magazine has
an article about "Foghorn" ,Macdon
aid, who enlisted as private in the
Canadian forces at So and is now a
major at 81. The author of the arti-
Gle says:
"By canoe for -thirty-one days
through the wilderness, by an old tub
of leaky steamboat, by whatever
means of travel he could find, includ-
ing his own feet, he made hiS way
back to Winnipeg, only to find that
the troops had left. All right! A ma
chine gun company was being formed
and he applied for that.
''The recruiting officer was friend
of his, had helped celebrate "Fog-
horns fifty-third birthday the pre-
vious January. But when in making
out the papers he came to the ques-
ton: How old are you?' and Fog
horn whipped out, Thirty -nine!' he
never batted an eyelash.
Before his official cronies at Otta
wa knew it, Macdonald was on his way
to England-a private at fifty three!
Two years later he was major; the
only man, in the forces of the Allies
who has risen from the ranks to that
grade in the present war"
The Robesonian., 1918-06-20
Fairs Asked to Pay Premiums in
War Savings Stamps.

All fair authorities in North Caro-
lima have been asked by the State De-
partment of Agriculture to pay the
premiums this year in War-Saving )
stamps This department contributes
annual So 500 to the fairs of the State
for cooperative premiums and thi =,
sum is matched by the fairs them
selves. This year the department pro-
poses to give this amount subject t.
the condition that the fairs pay their
cash premiums in War-Savings
stamps. Governor Beckett heartily
endorses the movement in the follow
ing letter to fair secretaries:
"The proposition that the Govern
ment is making to North Carolina to
invest fifty millions of dollars in War
Savings certificates means more for
the future development of this State
than any proposition submitted to our
people in half century. Entirely in
dependent of the finances of tie war,
the habits of thrift acquired in saving
fifty millions of dollars, and the cap
ital thus accumulated, will be of un-
told value to our people. l think this
movement should be encouraged by
every organization in the State, and
suggest to you that all premiums paid
by your association in the year 1918
be paid in War-Savings certificates
and Thrift stamps. Such politely
en- your part will do much to keep this
movement ever before the people
eyes.
(Signedy "T. w. BECKETT"
