YOUR
INVISIBLE GUEST
Says State Food Administrator Brooks
in Speaking of Thanksgiving
Day Preparations.

visualize your invisible guest at your
Thanksgiving dinner table," is the re-
quest of Frank H. Brooks, federal food
administrator for Vermont. 1--WE and our
allies have been eating at common Ia
Bile for many months now" Mr.. Brooks
said to-day, "and as result America
has contributed nightly to the winning
of the war. We must continue to eat at
common table that the fruits of the
victory we have won may be secured te
us and the stability of peace quickly at
tanned"
"If any of us had the opportunity to
entertain at our Thanksgiving dinner a
woman or child of heroic Belgium, or a
resident of northern France or of any
of the lands invaded by the Germans
and now liberated by our armies, we
would load their plates to overlooking
and take the greatest delight in so doing,
But, while those welcome guests cannot
be present in person, they can be present
in spirit and should be at the tables of
all patriotic and loyal citizens.
'Set place at the table for the guest
Pull up chair for him. Let this be a
symbol And as we enjoy the bounties
Of the day, let our thoughts range across
the seas to those whose misfortunes in
war are continued into the days of peace
because the food stuffs we have in such
great abundance are lacking to them,
Such thoughts will strengthen our will
and increase our determination to con-
tinue to conserve that the unfortunate
ones may be sent the nourishment with
out which death by starvation awaits.

Sidelight on the Hun.

Fifteen million acres to be irriga-
ted, eighty million to be drained, two
undred million to be cleared.
This is the modest plan that Sec
letary Lane has presented to the
esident and congress. The figures
convey the scope of an undertaking.
by which homes are to be provided for
returning soldiers.
Of the men supplied by Haywood
county for the national army there
are many who do not come from the
farm. But most of them are in closer
touch with farm life than the con-
tir gents provided by the big cities,
and are in better position to estimate
what it means, We can think more in
diligently of its details and gauge
more accurately the multitude of
problems which it presents.
But, while recognizing the gravity
Oh these problems we should hail the
project with the same enthusiasm as
those who are unable through the lin
itstions Of their environments to ap-
preciate all that it comprehends. AS
an economic measure its significance
is tremendous but it should have NOR i.
than an economic interest for all
americans.
The histories of great nations are
in one particular identical. Times
of acute crises boldly faced and over
come have been followed by periods

complish that which all free people
wish accomplished. How powerfully
can his party's defeat be used to dis
parage and belittle his own standing
and influence in his own nation, and
how CONVINCING can they be made zap
rear "a their own people and others
that the people Of the United States
do not approve Of, do not stand for,
and win not carry out these great
principles, which President Wilson has
made the cardinal principles, for which
we and our allies fight, which he has
made the passion and hope of Belgium
and France and Servia, and the war
worn peoples Of all Erope
It me- tiers not now well we at home
may understand that the nation stands
by the president regardless of the re-
suit Of the congressional election. Our
politics this year is not national af-
fair, but international, worldwide, Of
tremendous interest to all nations, and
Ct supreme and vital importance to
our allies, to Russia and the oppressed
nationalities of Austria, to the people
of all Europe.
In the new analysis there is but one
way to fully support our country and
cur soldiers at this time, and that is
by full and unreserved support of the
president. The election of republic
can congress would be construed by a
large portion Of the yorld, and partic-
ularly by those over whom the presi-
dents influence is most important, as
Reputation of him and of the princi-
pies Of the free peoples of the world.
No qualified support, no halfway sup
port, no divided allegiance will serve.

SUPPORT THE PRESIDENT.

The United States, by virtue of its
manifest greatness and power, occu-
pies the commanding place in the
world today. Never before was it so
respected and admired for its power
and might, and never before has it
so commanded confidence and homage
of the world by reason of its stand
for freedom and justice and right.
President Wilson has command
ing, political and moral influence in
the world outside of those nations with
which we are at war, and even among
their peoples there are millions who
look to him for deliverance from war
and famine and from oppression and
misgovernment.
It can have no other effect than to
hurt and lessen President Wilson's
prestige and influence with the foreign
world for his party to meet defeat
this fall. 1t cannot but weaken his
power for good, for victory and peace,
should his party be repudiated at the
polls by the American people.
How greatly can democratic defeat
be used by his enemies, who are the
enemies of the United States, and the
enemies Of our soldiers in France, and
the enemies Of peace and freedom ev-
erywhere to discount his ability to ac-

cotton crop has developed unusually
early this season and because Of the
great scarcity Of labo-, many child
rem will have to stop school for few
weeks in order to help their parents
in the cotton fields. These children are
entitled to their time at school and
must be taken care of.
1t may be little inconvenient to
teachers to close down just at this
time, but where the interests of the
children demand it there is nothing
else to be done, and the action of the
board will be generally endorsed.
Foreseeing the present emergency,
cur schools were started unusually
early this year and the loss of few
weeks will not throw the closing next
spring any later than usual.
One thing we must keep in mind
The school is for the children. They
must be educated in order to be fitted
for the great tasks which they must
work out in the future. Poor people
are the ones who find it hardest to
keep their children in school. The
school officers are doing everything
in their power to help the children of
this class and they need the coopera-
ton of both teachers and parents. Ev-
cry worthy teacher will respond with
enthusiasm and every parent fit to
bear the responsibilities of a parent
will make every other interest Sec
ondary to that of his child.
Every child in school should be our
slogan this year. He who fails to do
his full part toward keeping them
there is Stacker of the worst sort, |
There is no place for such a man in
this county.

MUST PAY IN ADVANCE.


In order to meet the demands of
Our government in the conserva-
ton of paper, The States-Graph-
ic must adopt the pay in adj
vance" rule for subscriptions. In
order that all of our subscribers
may have plenty of time in which
to arrange for this change we
make the announcement now to
take effect January l, 1919. This
is giving more than three months
notice. We have many subscrib-
ers who have not been at all reg
ular in their subscription pay
ments because there has been no
demand for it. A subscription
is small amount and can be paid
in advance without any hardship.
All daily papers and very large
percentage Of the weeklies have
already adopted this plan. NOW
THE GOVERNMENT MAKES
THE DEMAND OF ALL. We
want every one of our subscribers
to make this AN IMPORTANT
MATTER TO BE ATTENDED
TO AT ONCE, for we do not want
to cut any of them off as delin--
quents. Remember, though, we
shall be forced to do this on Janu-
airy |, 1919, unless you pay your
subscription ahead of that time.
If you want to know when your
subscription expires, just look on
the margin of any copy you re-
ceive and you will find the date of
expiration. Here is an illustra-
ton of the way in which all papers
are marked: 4-16-18. The A gives
the month, the 16 the day and the
Is the year of this supposed sub
scription and means that the SUBJ
scription expired April 16, 1918.
If your subscription expires be-
fore January l, 1919, you must
come in and make a payment be-
fore that date.

citation which ended the Civil War.
Any bitter struggle brings to light
the latent qualities needed to endure
it, When it has passed. these quail
ties remain and demand a field for
their exercise. Those who have seen
at close range the daring of the Sam
r.ies in France have asked in wonder
row so much courage could be hidden
i. these drafted clerks, tailors and
dsirymen.
Perhaps only part of it was there
/; the beginning, and the rest of il
was brought to birth by the demand:
CT the battlefield.
But in whatever way it is displayed
today, the wise proposal of Secretary
Lane will open up new fields for the
employment of all the initiative val
or and resource which the present con.
cict engenders in these young men
The time for preparation is already
upon US; for through the smoke that
verhangs the European continent we

NO TALK OF PEACE.

American doughboys charge a Ger
nan machine gun nest across an opei
field.
Some fall, but the others press for
ward. They come to their objective al
the point of the bayonet, only to finC
the beaten Hun with uplifted hands
crying "Kamerad." But with CUR
or knife concealed ready to violate
his plea of surrender.
This is the true Hun spirit, the spir-
it back of the Kaiser and his court.
With the power of the offensive pass
ing from him. he is now merly wait
ing for another chance to lift his hands
with the cry of "Kamerad," or"Peace. y
Peace-with part of the loot still in
his possession! Peace-with only a
thought of German gain or German
victory through craft or deceit! Peace
with the hiden knife ready for its
sudden thrust!
Peace! In the A. E. F. there win
be no thought of peace, no whisper of
reace, no dream of peace until the
Hun is beaten to the dust.
The fighting lines sweeping their
way forward through machine gun fire
are not talking of peace.
The fighting lines and the workers
through the s. o. S. are not thinking
Of peace, Their single thought and
dream is victory. They see ahead,
through the battle smoke only saw
age enemy to humanity whipped until
ne is ready to quit and take up his
share of work for civilization.
Let the weak-hearted, who are
dreaming Of a compromise
Let the pacifsts who are talking of
"peece by agreement
Let the side liners who have chad
enough of war;
Let the secretly inclined pro-Ger-
Fans, who think "this great tragedy
should end without decision."-
Let them one and all know once and
for all that for the A. E. F. there is
no such word as peace with the Hun
unbeatenI The man who talks of
peace today, except through victory
is a traitor. He is only fit to face
