WILL HELP EQUIP
HOME GUARD COMPANIES

The county commissioners this
morning after a hearing from dele
cations of citizens of Abilene and
Solomon, headed by Capt. Green and
Capt. Crawford, appropriated $11
per member for the equipment of the
home guard companies of the coun-
ty. The appropriation is to be avail
able when the companies are must
cred in. The action of the commits
toner's will meet with hearty approv-
al of the people of the county. It
is probable that the expenditures oi
counties for this patriotic purpose
will be reimbursed by the legislature
when it meets next winter.
The officers and men of the guard
companies greatly appreciate the
action of the commissioners. The
uniforms will not be fully paid for
by this sum but the boys will be
able to meet the balance. 1t was a
fine thing to do.

In the contributions to relief
causes the county has exceeded its
quota in every instance. Its fine War
Fund organization is one of the most
systematic in the state and works
with effectiveness. reaching every

Hope to the Saline county line. a
distance of sixteen miles of macad-

The record as shown in the table
published today is one of which
every citizen should be proud and
It reflects credit on the county.
While in the aggregate 1t seems a
large sum yet 1t is but trifle in the
$4,000, 900 valuation Of the prop
erty of the county. The gifts are but
Ia of cne per cent OF our property
and investments less than 4 per
cent.
The war has scarcely touched the
county yet. The next Liberty Loan
will call for the loan Of about one
million dollars to the government
But this will be less than one-fifth
the value of the wheat crop alone
and less than one-tenth OF what the
farms will produce during the year.
Dickinson Is al, rightand II wilt
keep on being all right, no matter
what demands may be made on 1t
for the future, in order to help win
