THE LIBERTY LOAN.

America is on the home stretch now in the effort to
word go to Germany-and it will go very quicky-that
America has failed to raise the loan will encourage our
lars already in the effort to throttle Liberty in the world
Will America the home of Liberty hesitate at any sacr
fee save her? If you haven't subscribed all you think
you then hunt up and subscribe some more
Your money will be worth no more than these bonds
Both will have the same government back of them Lend
all you to your country.
Many people do not realize that very careful census
is being taken Of those who subscribe and the amounts
they subscribe this third Liberty Loan Patriotic men
and women who believe in their country, and who be-
eve that America is the best land in the world to live in
have gone about the matter systematically and have listed
carefully every citizen who able to buy one $50 bond
They have not only listed them but have looked up their
records and have found out how much more than $50
bond they able to buy This record going to be kept
and in the future is going to be known who has done
his patriotic duty and who has not done it. When the
boys return ctorus from the sea- these records
going to be available to them These boys who have
gone "Over There" and have rsked their lives to make
this fight going very nearly running this COM
brand of Cain is going be placed upon every man who
did not do his full and patriotic duty during these times
when the very life of our country is at stake

HOLDING LIE LlNE.

Through forty awful days the great battle in France
has ragged with fury and power equaled in
fare There have been short breathing periods of com
parave quiet but not for one hour has the battle wholly
ceased and during much the greater part of the time
has been fought with all the force the assaultng powers
could bring to bear upon its antagonists For months
upon a scale of unheard-of magnitude. The purpose
was advertised and the world given to understand
that the end was merely matter of Germanys choosing
The war lords pretend confidence which in the light
of the past they had good to feel but they
deavored impress their own people and their enemies
by attitude of absolute assurance that would inspire
courage the side and fear on the other Appar-
emily they have not yet learned that futiy of rghtfu
ness and of vain boasting Apparently they still rely
upon lies at home and upon abroad as sources
power that will win victories They have deceived the
Germans doubt but they have not deceived their foes
and instead of fghteng them by their threats and their
atrocities they have but increased their anger their
strength and their determination.
In these forty days and nights the Germans have done
their worst It is not conceivable that any superior
bnaon of military powers and instruments could be
ganized and hurled against the allies They gather
ed the finest Of their troops in vast numbers to lead their
continuous attacks they have supported them with all
the ordnance that could be assembled and thew have
fought with the utmost valOr and desperation. But
protection of civilization The line is intact and except
where have they preached the living wall that is the
the loss of local positions of some srategca value
strong the 21st day of March when the
assault began Germany has hurled its scores of picked
divisions against this mpregnable wall it has sacrificed
hundreds of thousands of men, and it has gained nothing
Of decisive value

will be recovered their cargoes removed by processes
not heretofore employed. Wrecks thick in the

nets will raise the immense quantities of iron and Steel

to undo the havoc other submarines have wrought But
that will be after the war; Just now we confronted

Washington, May ga warning in
the face of the impending readjust-
ments of all business as a result Of
Americas growing participation in
the war, was marked in the annual re-

evenly distributed, showing satisfac-
tory conditions in all sections of the

WILLIAMSON BRANNON
dies in u. S. SERVICE
Newark Young Man Makes the
Supreme Sacrifice in Serv-
ice of His Country

Williamson Brannon, a son
of Mr.. and Mrs. T. j. Brannon
Of this place died last Sunday
at Fort Mckinley, Portland,
Maine.
Young Brannon enlisted in
the Coast Artillery about three
months ago and has been sta
toned at Fort Mckinley for
some time. His death was
caused by bronchial pneumt MIA
he having contracted cold
which later developed into
pneumonia from which he died.
Young Branon was of ma
ture and character which made
him liked by all who knew
him, and was always ready
and willing to perform a favor
for some one else. He volun-
teered at the age of 10 and
was a true patriot, and as
much honor is due him as if
he had died on the battlefront,
for he was performing a SER
vice for his country. He was
of the type that make efficient
soldiers and good men and It
was a distinct shock to the
whole community to hear of
his untimely death.
Funeral services were held
this afternoon at the Baptist
church, and the body was laid
to rest in the Macedonia ceme-
terry. All business houses were
closed and all forms of business
suspended during the funeral.
Williamson is the second son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Brannon to die
in the service, another son,
Clara having died less than a
week ago and they have the
profound sympathy of the en-
tire community in their loss.

They are fighting your war

hopes to defeat the Allies, sci

the war to, American soil. At
least he did hope to do so, be-
fore American men and Ameri-

American ships manned by
American seamen started him
back toward Berlin.
And don't forget it will take
