exhibits by the county community fair
associations at the next Fair of the
Carolinas than has ever been offered

of the Carolinas are preparing for
the coming fair. And he assured
there would be the biggest exhibit of

to be no valid reason why the Intelligent generosity of the
American people cannot now again be relied upon. 1t is
pretty generally realized that an armistice agreement
does not mean a declaration Of peace. The armistice is
simply the first actual step in the direction Of peace, and
it must be ~remembered that the conditions which are to
be imposed upon the defeated enemies of the United
States and the Allies are such that it will be imperative
to maintain large forces Of American troops along the
border lines and in strategical places where their pres
ence will be necessary as a guarantee that the agree
nent will not be violated.
So even though the war may have come to an end,

VALUE OF MONEY.

That three great public works
should have been constructed in this
country during the Civil War which
ranks as one of the most exhaustive
and expensive wars in history, is
proof conclusive that economic pros
perity need be in no serious danger
in the present war The three great
works were the building of the Union
Pacific and the Central Pacific Rail-
roads and the laying Of the Atlantic
cable. The telegraph was developed
as a military necessity during the
war and came into general use.
The United States is now rich in
money. As things stand, her citi-
zens can well afford to more than
subscribe the full amount of the new
Fighting Fourth Liberty Loan, and
from the economic standpoint, do 1t
as a safe and sane personal invest
ment AS the bonds can be bought
on the 81 week instalment basis
every citizen can have share In this
prosperity TO an extent never before
offered to the American people. Saw
ings thus invested bring good yearly
interest and furnish a capital that
will be of higher purchasing value
when the bonds come due than the
same amount of money is today.

Facts and Figures
PROSPERITY FOLLOWS WAR

Expansion and invention are the
historical children of war even in de-,
feated countries. Following the Civil
War came the opening Of the West
and the, Industrial development of the
South. Manufacture and agriculture
in France aRa Germany were stimu-
lated by gthe VFranco- Prussian War.
ISnain sgweke both politically and in
dustrially as an immediate result Of
the Spanish American War While
Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines
each saw a development Of agricul-
ture and commerce before unknown.
Economic development and serious
attempt 10 secure for her products q
place in the worlds markets came to
the fore in Japan following the
RussO-Japanese War and Russia at
that time saw the beginning OF in
dustrial occupation.
Just what roads progress will
take after this war cannot now be
definitely stated but it seems certain
that they will be many and that the
country will enter upon period Of
greater prosperity than it has known.
The advent Of those prosperous
days can be fastened by a prompt
and liberal purchase of Fighting
Fourth Liberty Loan Bonds.

HOW THE MAN AT HOME FIGHTS

To the one who must do his lighting
in the trenches back here at home II
almost seems as though he really were
in the trenches, throwing bombs, max
ing charges. and. always, going over
the ton. when he knows exactly what
the money he is putting into Liberty
Bonds is doing for things on the other
side Then when he reads the papers
he may think it was his bomb that was
placed IN that hero's hands. or that II
was he who gave that soldier his
equipment. He knows. then, that he
really is fighting in The trenches, that
the more he gives the harder he nights
and the sooner the day will come when
the victory IS won and he can throw
ND his hat and shout for the boys as
they come sailing home.
One S100-bond viii provide the burst
ing charge OF T. n T. for one 14-inch

five incendiary bombs. Or, II will buy

soldiers This latter may seem not al
all warlike and very insignificant at
best. but let him 30 without salt and

mon articles have an important place
even in winning this great world war,

WHAT A FlFTYDoLLAR BOND
WILL BUY

Just how much one is doing for his
country when he purchases a $50 Lib
orty Bond has been computed by the
United States Government in order
that each purchaser may have a reas-
onably definite idea of what the money
he is giving so freely, though it may be
with much sacrifice, is doing to aid
the great war which the sons of the
nation are wSging with that determi-
nation which admits Of no surrender,
in far-oif lands across the sea,
He who purchases one $50 bond may
have the satisfaction of knowing that
that sum Of money win send 1000
three-inch trench mortar shells on
their way; or II may provide the burst
ing charge for 100 three-inch trench
mortar shells; or It may provide three
augmentation drop bombs; or 10

two rifles; or knives, forks and spoons

SOME USES OF THE PEOPLES
MONEY BY THE WAR
DEPARTMENT

Since The. United States entered the
war, little more than Is months ago,
the War Department has raised,
equipped, trained and, with naval help,
sent across the sea upward of mil
lion and a half of soldiers and has
practically as many more under train
ing at home. The number of Ameri-
can soldiers lost in transit as result
of U-boat attacks up to September /
last was less than 500.
In this time more than 100000
rifles of the new 1917 model, consid
cred by many experts the best army
rife in the world, have been made, in
spected, assembled and issued, and
the weekly production is growing
The total amount of money directly
appropriated by Congress for the Ord

cation has been given to incur obi

$l2,O00.OOO,0O0, since the beginning Of
the war.
From the beginning Of the war. to
