LIBERTY BONDS
 TO BUY GUNS
 FOR OUR BOYS

No other single weapon used in the world war has proved so efticacious as the machine gun. Equally in offense and defense it has become indispensa- blc When our boys dash forward against the Huns. they carry with them these deadly guns, setting them up at every pause to rake the ranks of the enemy. When our aviators fly over the German lines, for combat or for observation. each airplane must carry one or more Of these weapons Thousands upon thousands of them are is use now, and more must be produced in an intending stream
 It is well for the people of Cordova to fix these facts firmly in their minds for they are about to buy great num- Der of machine guns with which the boys of this place. who are in the service. will shoot the kaiser's soldiers full of holes
 On" light Browning machine gun costs the government about $l25. Each resident of C0rdova who will lend the United States government $250 will know that he or she is pay ing for two of those weapons. and may be assured that those very guns will soon be spraying with bullets thc brutal Boches who are trying to ruin the world
 Tn" way to lend this money to th" government which means to yourself is open to each of you in Fourth Liberty Loan bonds IL will take only five $50 bonds to pay for those two machine guns. and if you cannot af ford to take all five of them, the mem. bers of your household can combine later you read about a bunch of the Cordova boys lying in machine gun nest in France beating back a counter attack of the Huns, you can say
 Maybe they are using the guns our family paid for"
 Our Liberty Loan director is in formed that we must take at least S71 300 worth of the bonds of the fourth loan That means that Cordova will buy 572 light Browning machine guns to help make the world decent place to live in.
 Since Saturday last, when the cam paign opened, Cordova has subscribed $55, ,070. and of this amount sS,350 worth of bonds were purchased today by the following persons:

THE FEAR OF TNy ASTON

1t is evident from every line of in
forma ton that comes out of Germany
that the people of that country are
haunted BY the possibility of an in
vasion; that they shrink from this as
from death, and the approach of the
allied armies toward the German
frontier has had more to do with their
acouicscence in peace of defeat than
all the other influences combined.
If the military party is to rally the
empire for one more stand before
agreeing to an arniistice which shat
tiers Germany's military strength,
that party must give some sort of
guarantee that enemy armies will not
put foot upon German soil; that the
long range guns of the allies will not
begin dropping high explosive shells
into German cities and that some
means will be found of defending in
terror communities from the British,
French and American air raids.
The only guarantee that can be
given to this end is Il sterner reslS-
lance on the part Of the German arm
les. If they stand upon their present
lines and continue to hold the allies
back until winter comes, there IS IL
chance that German territory will not
be pressed by the invaders heel in the
immediate future. But if Marshal
Foch moves on. day by day drawing
nearer and nearer the frontier it
seems certain that the German nation
will demand peace at whatever price
and will find means Of enforcing that
demand.
Well may Germans tremble when
they contemplate the possibility of an
enemy invasion. They know the wreck
and ruin which they inflicted upon
French and Belgian cities and they
know how they applauded their 1ncen-
diary armies. They know, the terror
they created when their airpanes be-
gan &c lombard London from the ar.
and they know the destruction they
sought to accomplish by their long
range c;tnnonading of Paris. They feel
that no mercy will be shown them
once the enemy descends upon their
towns ard villages, and none Will be
shown if Germany persists in defend
ing those cities.-(Richhond Times

ALLIES DROP OUT

Turkey and Austria have followed
Bulgaria from the field of battle. ac-
ceptine unconditional surrender anal
leaving Germany standing alone, with
out friend or an ally in the civilized
world.
This is the substance of dispatches
which reached Washington yesterday
bulletin following bulletin so fast that
it was almost impossible for Govern
ment officials to keep abreast with
the swiftly moving tide of war. First
came the news flashed from London
that Turkey had applied for an arm
!stlce, expressing Il willingness to
accept 'Ehatcver terms her enemies
might impose
Close upon the heels of this came
i cablcgram from Rome indicating
that the defeated and overwhelmed
Austrian armies had applied to the
Italian General Diaz for an immedi-
ate armstice: also upon such terms
as the Allies might lay down. This
proposal was forwarded forthwith to
the Versailles Council, which is now
considering the most momentous prob
lens raised by the world Wharf.-The
problems of an immediate peace.
And wherever one turns in he hears
1t fatty predicted that peace will
come before Christmas. Such proph-
estes have been ventured by a few
officials before, but they have not been
general until the receipt of news of
the collapse of Austria and Turkey.
On every hand there is the feeling
that Germany must give up the ghost
before many more weeks pass.
Momentous events are croWding
one upon the heels of another so rap
idly that the mind can only family
grasp them.
Partly we have been prepared for
the news partly our minds ars d.
tracted by the bigger news that may
come at any moment-the announce.
ment of Garmany's surrender.
rhoustful men, how&ss. will not
allswsthemsclves to becure too enthn
s;astic over 'he prospect Of an early
peace. They win reserve their ella.
ton rather. than run the risk of hav-:.
ing it shattered by some improbable
contingency There will be time to
,sjoiee when Germany finally submits.

THE BEAST or GOD


The Kaiser, until recently, has been
assuming that Jehovah has been with
him in his futile attempts to place
the world under Prussian domination.
He has oft had the temelity to say
that with the help Of God" he would
accomplish this and that
During the past summer and 1ail
it must have been apparent to MIN
that his God, like Fortune, is caprlc-
ious, and he has been left to his just
fate.
The late Thomas Carlyle was
close student of the book OF JOB. he
read it almost necessarily, and pro-
nounced it the greatest of all literary
productions of man. While not pos
sessing the comprehensive mind OF the
great Scotch thinker, we have OFT
cat at the feet of Job and noted ex-
pressions of the Chaldean and his
friends which seem to apply to all
ages of the world. Eliphaz. the Ie-
mantle. it will be remembered, in his
colloquy with Job, said: Remember,
| pray thee, whoever persisted, being
innocento or where were the righteous
cut off? Even as have seen, they that
plough iniquity, and SOW wickedness,
reap the same. By the blast of God
they perish, and by the breath of. his
nostrils are they consumed"
Had the Kaiser followed the example
of Carlyle and made the book OF Job
a study, he would long ago have seen
his finish, that terrible finish, which
he now. sees is imminent, and ne
would not have been guilty OF the
blasphemy of alleging that God was
with him.
His dreams of world dominion are
evaporating fast, and should he es-
cape being placed before an interna-
tional jury upon the charge of whole
sale murder, he will be looked upon
with contempt as long as he lives
The inscription of the medal struck
in the reign of Queen Elizabeth, On
the dispersion and destruction of the
Wanted Spanish armada, was "Aftia-
Wit Deus ct diss;pantur"-'the breath
of God has issued, and they are dis
persed"
